Part 2

Cue in Hamas: Hamas and its perpetual backer Iran have been looking for an excuse for a confrontation for a while now. They have watched helplessly as the Abraham Accords flourished and have seen how the Israeli-Palestinian conflict has been downgraded to the bottom of everyone's priority list. They are concerned that, for the first time in history, Israeli Arabs would serve in an Israeli government – never mind that the party currently holding the balance of power in Israel is a light incarnation of their movement, the Muslim Brotherhood. And if that wasn’t enough, Iran is still reeling from an electrical "work accident" in their Natanz nuclear plant that showcased their vulnerability.

So, what is the best way to drive a wedge between Jews and Muslims, between Israel and the Arab world? Start a war, do it on Ramadan when religious fervor is high, and start in Al Quds (Jerusalem), where everyone will support you, and your political organization will be seen as the true defenders of the faith. Throw in an ill-planned police barricade situation in Damascus Gate on Ramadan for crowd-control purposes on the heels of the Meron tragedy a week before, and you have the perfect storm.

First fire a rocket in Jerusalem, and you create the linkage from the get-go, never mind that Jerusalem has a large Muslim population.

Once you connect this to Al Aqsa you have a justification – it’s actually kind of a brilliant strategy. The intifada of 2001 was also called the Al Aqsa intifada – by linking the two, you get popular support and, at the same time, the whole Muslim world is on your side. The images of Israel's heavy air power of course help tell the narrative of the victimhood that everyone has bought lock, stock and barrel since 1967. Here we go again. Needless deaths for a Hamas political campaign against Fatah and Iran's proxy war with the West.

Co-existence 2.0, what was will no longer be

In the past years 'coexistence' was a hot commodity, highly popular among liberal, progressive NGO’s and donors. It was a chimera. Op-ed..

Hamas never needs a special occasion to bombard Israel with rockets. Yet the progressive narrative connects the terrorist group’s current onslaught to eviction proceedings in Israeli courts concerning a few properties in the Jerusalem neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah. Sens. Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren claim these are stark human-rights violations by the Israeli government, and illegal under international law. Even the State Department expressed “serious concern.”

The truth about Sheikh Jarrah is the opposite. It is an ordinary property dispute between private parties. The Jewish claimants’ ownership of the few plots of land has been confirmed repeatedly in court, following laws that apply equally regardless of ethnicity. Israeli courts have gone out of their way to avoid evicting the Palestinian residents who haven’t paid rent for half a century.

In the case now before Israel’s Supreme Court, the owner is an Israeli corporation with Jewish owners whose chain of title is documented back to an original purchase in 1875. Until 1948, the neighborhood now known as Sheikh Jarrah was home to both Jewish and Arab communities. Jordan invaded Israel in 1948 and occupied half of Jerusalem, expelling every one of its Jewish inhabitants and seizing their property.

When Israel reunited Jerusalem and ended the Jordanian occupation in 1967, it had to decide what to do with these properties. In the many cases in which Jordan had officially transferred the title of Jewish-owned properties to Palestinians, Israel respected the new titles—and still does—even though they are based on forcible takings in a war of aggression followed by ethnic cleansing against Jews. Where title had never been transferred, however, Israel returned properties to their owners. Critics of Israel claim that Arabs can’t recover property under the same law, but the law is entirely neutral—it is simply the case that Jordan took property from Jews, not Palestinians.

Not to mention a Pakistani actress with 1.2 million followersadmiringly shared a fake Hitler quote, "'I would have killed all the Jews of the world… but I kept some to show the world why I killed them." To make it clear, she added, "Free Palestine."

This isn't about Gaza. We've never seen such hate after any Western action in Syria or Afghanistan. No British crowds marching through malls to protest airstrikes in Iraq.

This is bigotry in its most ugly, rawest form.

Gaza is an excuse to find a socially acceptable way to publicly express Jew-hatred while pretending that your hate is righteous.

And while it is more subtle, that is exactly what is behind nearly all the obsessive hate of Israel we see every day of every year. Nothing else explains this level of hate, and clearly it isn't because of the supposed victims - Arab persecution of Palestinians is ignored by the anti-Israel crowd as well.

The way we know that anti-Zionism is antisemitism is that the anti-Israel Leftists who swear up and down that they are against antisemitism have not said a word about these incidents. And certainly none of them have popped up and said they would protect the Jewish right to counter-protest or even walk around unmolested.

The New York Times also hires freelance photographers in Gaza who have every incentive to show Israel in a bad light and ignore Hamas war crimes like shooting rockets from populated areas. The NYT is highlighting obviously staged photos as well, like this one, with a bassinet that somehow landed right side up, meters away from the demolished building that supposedly housed it - and without a speck of dust on it. The photographer was also amazingly lucky to find a photogenic, sad boy who just happened to be walking right in front of it, but to the side, so we could see both.

Many may not know this but "reconstruction money" translates from the Arabic phrase, "what's the over / under on how much money we will make for dead Pallys on a per-head basis".... roughly translated.

They have issued guidelines for how reporters of Middle Eastern descent should slant their stories. For example:

All reporting should take into consideration that Israel occupies Palestinian territory, and that Palestinians — whether they live in the West Bank, Gaza or inside Israel — are subject to an unjust and unequal system...

Avoid “both sides” framing. Recognize the power imbalance between Israel and the Palestinian people.

Do not call Gaza “Hamas-controlled.” It is sufficient to say “Gaza,” or “Gaza’s Health Ministry,” for example.

Replace “eviction” and “real-estate dispute” with “forced removal.” The terms “eviction” and “real-estate dispute” suggest a disagreement between a landlord and tenant, obscuring the Israeli government’s efforts to forcibly displace Jerusalem’s Palestinian population.

Be cognizant of how you’re identifying Palestinians. Do not use the identifiers “Arab-Israeli” or “Israeli-Arab,” unless requested by the individuals described. Instead use “Palestinian citizen of Israel” if that applies, or “Palestinian.” Also recognize Palestinians represent multiple faith backgrounds, including Muslim, Christian, Jewish, Samaritan, Baha’i and others. Ignoring this diversity perpetuates the misleading notion that the conflict is a religious one between Jews and Muslims rather than political in nature.

You mention the BBC not welcoming you anymore, and today you contribute mostly to British and global media outlets that are on the right. What does the institutional bias against Israel emanate from?​

Those attitudes are ingrained at big media institutions, probably since 1967, when the narrative emerged that Israel had become the big bully. Journalists at the BBC are left-orientated, and they have a strong negative perspective on Israel. It’s an attitude that is ingrained at the British Foreign Office, as well as in large sections of academia. In those worlds, the immediate reaction to conflict in the Middle East is that Israel must be doing something bad.

Anti-Semitism plays a part, but in Britain, it’s also because oil interests made sections of the government traditionally more pro-Arab.

The Foreign Office is a major player when it comes to policy on Israel. Where did the anti-Israel agenda come across in dealing with them?​

There’s a section of the UK Foreign Office — not all of it — that takes these attitudes. That group is known as the “Camel Corps” for their pro-Arab leanings, and they pushed back strongly on my early efforts to share intelligence with Israel.

Instead, advocates for Israel ought to own-up to Israel’s strength. Admit to it and articulate how that strength is rightfully and wisely being used to fight Iran and Islamic jihadism – a challenge that the West faces too. After all, Israel is fighting the people that celebrated Bin Laden’s attacks on New York, Washington, Paris and elsewhere.

Remember David Ben-Gurion’s famous adage about the messianic era when the lion will lie down with the lamb, as per Isaiah? “That will be great,” said Ben-Gurion, “as long as Israel is the lion.”

So never apologize for Israel’s use of “disproportionate” force. Instead, articulate the reasons why Israel must be the “lion” and use overwhelming force to deter enemies and defend its homeland, and do not be shy about this. Agonize a bit over the need to be a ferocious military power, if you must, but never ask for forgiveness. When fighting against the genocidal Hamas and other enemies of Western civilization, Israel need not pull its punches just to win a nice guy award.

Third, history matters. Israel’s War of Independence and the Six Day War were not instances of Israeli aggression, but defensive wars. Settlements are not colonialist outposts, but expressions of the Jewish right of return to ancestral lands. Israel placed three full-scale peace proposals on the table over the past 15 years involving Palestinian independence and almost-complete West Bank dominion, but Palestinians rejected all offers and prefer to fight on

Well, that’s true. The Islamic terrorists spend huge portions of their welfare payments on tunnel building for the purpose of offensive gee-had. Those tunnels are destroyed by the IDF during anti gee-had operations. Then the Islamic terrorists build new tunnels to be destroyed later.

I suppose the Islamic terrorists just presume the welfare money will keep flowing.

The national director emeritus of the Anti-Defamation League, Abraham Foxman, has publicly canceled his subscription to the New York Times, explaining in a tweet: “Today’s blood libel of Israel and the Jewish people on the front page is enough.”

Foxman verified the authenticity of the tweet — and the cancellation — in an email to The Algemeiner. He said the phone operator who accepted his call asked his reason for cancelling, and he replied that the reason was the paper’s bias against Israel and the Friday front-page package, which displayed photographs of mostly Arab children that the newspaper said had been killed primarily by Israel in the recent Israel-Gaza war.


ACCUSING JEWS OF KILLING GENTILE CHILDREN IS A CLASSICAL ANTISEMITIC TROPE. EVEN THE TIMES’ OWN COLUMNIST, BRET STEPHENS, WROTE IN A RECENT PIECE, “THE ACCUSATIONS MADE AGAINST ISRAEL — STEALING PALESTINIAN LAND (DESPITE THE FACT THAT ISRAEL VACATED THE TERRITORY FROM WHICH IT WAS SUBSEQUENTLY ATTACKED) AND WANTON VIOLENCE AGAINST PALESTINIAN CIVILIANS, PARTICULARLY CHILDREN (DESPITE THE FACT THAT ISRAEL REGULARLY WARNED ITS TARGETS TO VACATE BUILDINGS BEFORE TARGETING THEM) — CAN’T HELP BUT MAKE ME THINK OF ANCIENT LIBELS ABOUT JEWISH GREED AND BLOODLUST.”
