Boycott Israel

[RoccoR]

P F Tinmore, et al,

BSD is not going to assist the Arab-Palestinian People to acquire the improved quality of life for their refugee population. And it is certainly not going to improve the perception of the Palestinians or other Arab people in term of being more productive and less a burden.

BDS is a war Israel can't win

The endless failed international "peace" efforts, the vicissitudes of negotiations, and periodic spasms of violence have become like the weather - always there.

This is precisely why the BDS movement has come to figure so prominently in Palestinian hopes - it side-steps the moribund "peace process" and banks on people-power as leverage against state and institutional power, applied against a responsive economy, such as Israel's.

In the view of Palestinians, the state of Israel has never possessed legitimacy, not by international standards, as it was founded on expulsion, land-theft and military occupation. The BDS movement approaches this abstract issue by offering practicable action for citizens in the West, while the official international community dithers away the decades, leaving Palestinians worse off than ever before.

BDS is a war Israel can't win

(COMMENT)

The Arab-Palestinian, as having a generally accepted confrontational approach to improving peace and stability, maybe do see the BDS Movement as some sort of "war." I don't think that the Israelis see it quiet the same way. While it is a less violent approach, it is still a movement conceived to acquire political outcomes they could not otherwise achieve through diplomatic means.

The more the Arab-Palestinian focus on measures that do not consist of negotiation, inquiry, mediation, conciliation, arbitration, judicial settlements, or other peaceful means of their choice, the less likely they are going to be recognized as a stabilizing contribution to Regional Security.

Remember, while the Arab Palestinians fall in terms of human development, Israel exceeds every state in the Arab League.

Most Respectfully,
R

According to one of the islamonazi pallywood productions media companies. If it was that good the arab muslims calling themselves palestinians would not have banned it.

As for being legitimate INTERNATIONAL LAWS of 1922, 1923 and 1924 make Israel legitimate while making the arab muslims claims all illegal and founded on LIES, land theft and militaristic occupation and violence. Time for the ICC/ICJ to pass judgement and then tell the UN to muster the troops ready to invade and remove the arab muslims from Jewish lands.

I'm not so sure that I would want to endorse the extension of authority for either the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the International Criminal Court (ICC) or the new idea of the International Anti-Corruption Court (IACC). Nor would I be comfortable with granting the International Community a handle on the reigns of corruption.

The International Community contributes the robed resources to make decision in the court system. But these judges, lawyers, and magistrates are onlt as good as the system in which they were created and trained. The integrity of these systems are only as good as the sum of its parts.

There is about the same distribution in the current membership on the bench in the ICC:

​

In such a system, both the unsavory elements within the transnational corporations, influential criminal enterprises, and unscrupulous political powers can exert pressures on the court.

IF there was a reasonable expectation of honesty and integrity, some possibility of a fair hearing --- THEN, it might be that there would be some hope for the ICJ, the ICC, and the successful creation of the IACC. But as has been demonstrated in the past, and as it stands now, the International Community allowed the four principle members of the Arab League to participate in an act of open aggression against the Newly Declared State of Israel, formed under the (UN Recommendation) "Steps Preparatory to Independence" without even one penalty assessed. In 1967, the UN again withdrew the United Nations Emergency Force that separated Egyptian Forces from Israeli Forces, allowing Egypt to amass more than 100,000 troop, 900 tanks and a like number of Artillery pieces in a direct face-off for a direct engagement. And against, the UN assessed no penalty against the same four principle Arab League nations. And the, once again, the UN sided with the Arab League in condoning the sneak attack in 1973, which ended in the entire Egyptian 3rd Army being surrounded. And then the UN and Allied Powers intervened to save the Egyptian Army from destruction.

There is no question that just as Germany used new legislation was created to oppress the Jewish People under what appeared to be the color of law, so it is the case today, stretching back to the time Israel was created, that elements within the International Community have allowed for more than half a century using the UN to challenge the existence of the Jewish State.

No, I don't think you want to extend the influence of the International Community to further damage the existence of the Jewish State and the culture of the Jewish people attempting to survive the Jihadism, terrorism, and insurgencies that the UN has allowed to flourish in a radicalized Islamic region --- and the religion of peace.

Most Respectfully,
R.

Indeed, the law has more to do with politics than legalities. And that is what must be changed to get any justice for the Palestinians.

For the first fifty years of its life Israel's narrative was virtually the only one out there. Israel was a beacon of light in the midst of savages. Most people believed that crap because there was nothing else to be heard.

Enter the new Palestinians armed with college degrees and local languages. They bring historical documents and facts on the ground to the table. Israel has nothing to counter this besides lies, oppression, and name calling.

STUDY: Poverty doesn’t drive terrorism

STUDY: Poverty doesn't drive terrorism - The American Mirror

“We looked both at the micro level, the individual, and at the macro level, the state of the nation from which the terrorist originates. In both cases, we find the opposite to be true. People do not go into terrorism because of poverty,” said Prof. Claude Berrebi, a public policy scholar at Hebrew University of Jerusalem, whose 2007 policy paper— “Peace Economics, Peace Science and Public Policy”—presents a statistical analysis of the determinants of participation in terrorist activities by members of the Hamas and Islamic Jihad organizations between the late 1980s and May 2002.

Berrebi found that among the 285 Palestinian terrorists analyzed in his study, 16 percent—compared to 31 percent of Palestinians in general—were characterized as “poor.” Second, among the 208 terrorists for whom Berrebi had access to information about their education, 96 percent (200) had at least a high school education and 65 percent (135) had some kind of higher education, compared to 51 percent and 15 percent, respectively, of members of the general Palestinian population with the same age, sex, and religion.

Simple answer if they are so much as suspected of being biased then they lose their job and go back home. Or better still disband the UN and reform it as a western powers organisation to defend western interests and nations. Put up the sign on the door muslims not wanted.

What good is a college degree if it is not recognised outside of the college that issued it. As for the historical documents we have seen the ones you push full of altered treaties, heresay and outright lies. Then you cry like a baby when they are destroyed and proven false claiming that it is all zionist lies and name calling.

As for being legitimate INTERNATIONAL LAWS of 1922, 1923 and 1924 make Israel legitimate while making the arab muslims claims all illegal and founded on LIES, land theft and militaristic occupation and violence. Time for the ICC/ICJ to pass judgement and then tell the UN to muster the troops ready to invade and remove the arab muslims from Jewish lands.

The International Community contributes the robed resources to make decision in the court system. But these judges, lawyers, and magistrates are onlt as good as the system in which they were created and trained. The integrity of these systems are only as good as the sum of its parts.

​

In such a system, both the unsavory elements within the transnational corporations, influential criminal enterprises, and unscrupulous political powers can exert pressures on the court.

IF there was a reasonable expectation of honesty and integrity, some possibility of a fair hearing --- THEN, it might be that there would be some hope for the ICJ, the ICC, and the successful creation of the IACC. But as has been demonstrated in the past, and as it stands now, the International Community allowed the four principle members of the Arab League to participate in an act of open aggression against the Newly Declared State of Israel, formed under the (UN Recommendation) "Steps Preparatory to Independence" without even one penalty assessed. In 1967, the UN again withdrew the United Nations Emergency Force that separated Egyptian Forces from Israeli Forces, allowing Egypt to amass more than 100,000 troop, 900 tanks and a like number of Artillery pieces in a direct face-off for a direct engagement. And against, the UN assessed no penalty against the same four principle Arab League nations. And the, once again, the UN sided with the Arab League in condoning the sneak attack in 1973, which ended in the entire Egyptian 3rd Army being surrounded. And then the UN and Allied Powers intervened to save the Egyptian Army from destruction.

There is no question that just as Germany used new legislation was created to oppress the Jewish People under what appeared to be the color of law, so it is the case today, stretching back to the time Israel was created, that elements within the International Community have allowed for more than half a century using the UN to challenge the existence of the Jewish State.

No, I don't think you want to extend the influence of the International Community to further damage the existence of the Jewish State and the culture of the Jewish people attempting to survive the Jihadism, terrorism, and insurgencies that the UN has allowed to flourish in a radicalized Islamic region --- and the religion of peace.

Most Respectfully,

Indeed, the law has more to do with politics than legalities. And that is what must be changed to get any justice for the Palestinians.

For the first fifty years of its life Israel's narrative was virtually the only one out there. Israel was a beacon of light in the midst of savages. Most people believed that crap because there was nothing else to be heard.

Enter the new Palestinians armed with college degrees and local languages. They bring historical documents and facts on the ground to the table. Israel has nothing to counter this besides lies, oppression, and name calling.

STUDY: Poverty doesn't drive terrorism - The American Mirror

“We looked both at the micro level, the individual, and at the macro level, the state of the nation from which the terrorist originates. In both cases, we find the opposite to be true. People do not go into terrorism because of poverty,” said Prof. Claude Berrebi, a public policy scholar at Hebrew University of Jerusalem, whose 2007 policy paper— “Peace Economics, Peace Science and Public Policy”—presents a statistical analysis of the determinants of participation in terrorist activities by members of the Hamas and Islamic Jihad organizations between the late 1980s and May 2002.

Berrebi found that among the 285 Palestinian terrorists analyzed in his study, 16 percent—compared to 31 percent of Palestinians in general—were characterized as “poor.” Second, among the 208 terrorists for whom Berrebi had access to information about their education, 96 percent (200) had at least a high school education and 65 percent (135) had some kind of higher education, compared to 51 percent and 15 percent, respectively, of members of the general Palestinian population with the same age, sex, and religion.

Good points. The American revolutionaries were not poor and uneducated either.

In 1967, the UN again withdrew the United Nations Emergency Force that separated Egyptian Forces from Israeli Forces, allowing Egypt to amass more than 100,000 troop, 900 tanks and a like number of Artillery pieces in a direct face-off for a direct engagement. And against, the UN assessed no penalty against the same four principle Arab League nations. And the, once again, the UN sided with the Arab League in condoning the sneak attack in 1973, which ended in the entire Egyptian 3rd Army being surrounded. And then the UN and Allied Powers intervened to save the Egyptian Army from destruction.

There is no question that just as Germany used new legislation was created to oppress the Jewish People under what appeared to be the color of law, so it is the case today, stretching back to the time Israel was created, that elements within the International Community have allowed for more than half a century using the UN to challenge the existence of the Jewish State.

No, I don't think you want to extend the influence of the International Community to further damage the existence of the Jewish State and the culture of the Jewish people attempting to survive the Jihadism, terrorism, and insurgencies that the UN has allowed to flourish in a radicalized Islamic region --- and the religion of peace.

Interesting Rocco,but how you missed the US as not being corrupt baffles me somewhat,maybe you should do the analysis of who Corrupts America most.....you will find it is Zionists and Israel of course.

I note Australia and New Zealand+Skandia and Canada are head and shoulders above the rest..........moreover how you make Chile clean,methinks it is an oversight...steve but excellent post all the same Rocco

I'm not so sure that I would want to endorse the extension of authority for either the International Court of Justice (ICJ), the International Criminal Court (ICC) or the new idea of the International Anti-Corruption Court (IACC). Nor would I be comfortable with granting the International Community a handle on the reigns of corruption.

(COMMENT)

The International Community contributes the robed resources to make decision in the court system. But these judges, lawyers, and magistrates are onlt as good as the system in which they were created and trained. The integrity of these systems are only as good as the sum of its parts.

Indeed, the law has more to do with politics than legalities. And that is what must be changed to get any justice for the Palestinians.

For the first fifty years of its life Israel's narrative was virtually the only one out there. Israel was a beacon of light in the midst of savages. Most people believed that crap because there was nothing else to be heard.

Enter the new Palestinians armed with college degrees and local languages. They bring historical documents and facts on the ground to the table. Israel has nothing to counter this besides lies, oppression, and name calling.

STUDY: Poverty doesn't drive terrorism - The American Mirror

“We looked both at the micro level, the individual, and at the macro level, the state of the nation from which the terrorist originates. In both cases, we find the opposite to be true. People do not go into terrorism because of poverty,” said Prof. Claude Berrebi, a public policy scholar at Hebrew University of Jerusalem, whose 2007 policy paper— “Peace Economics, Peace Science and Public Policy”—presents a statistical analysis of the determinants of participation in terrorist activities by members of the Hamas and Islamic Jihad organizations between the late 1980s and May 2002.

Berrebi found that among the 285 Palestinian terrorists analyzed in his study, 16 percent—compared to 31 percent of Palestinians in general—were characterized as “poor.” Second, among the 208 terrorists for whom Berrebi had access to information about their education, 96 percent (200) had at least a high school education and 65 percent (135) had some kind of higher education, compared to 51 percent and 15 percent, respectively, of members of the general Palestinian population with the same age, sex, and religion.

Good points. The American revolutionaries were not poor and uneducated either.

Indeed. They were fighting to throw off the shackles of religious oppression, as opposed to the Arab-Moslem terrorists who seek to impose a politico-religious ideology that is oppressive and fascist at its core.

Of course that does not explain all of the Palestine supporters who are Christians.

And how many are those in reality, after all the arab muslims have wiped out 90% of the Christian population in their lands since 2007. Must be all of a dozen Christian extremists left supporting the arab muslim claims

As for being legitimate INTERNATIONAL LAWS of 1922, 1923 and 1924 make Israel legitimate while making the arab muslims claims all illegal and founded on LIES, land theft and militaristic occupation and violence. Time for the ICC/ICJ to pass judgement and then tell the UN to muster the troops ready to invade and remove the arab muslims from Jewish lands.

I thought the distribution of the religious groups was interest.

• Israeli Factbook

Religions:
Jewish 75%, Muslim 17.5%, Christian 2%, Druze 1.6%, other 3.9% (2013 est.)
​

• West Bank Factbook:

Religions:
Muslim 80-85% (predominantly Sunni), Jewish 12-14%, Christian 1-2.5% (mainly Greek Orthodox), other, unaffiliated, unspecified <1%
​

Israel's population concentration of Jewish people (75%) is nearly the same as the West Bank Muslim content (80-85%); with the inverse of Muslim 17.5% in Israel and a Jewish content of 12-14% in the West Bank. Similarly, the Christian content in Israel (2%) is so not different from that in the West Bank (1-2.5%).

The cause of the continued dispute in the on-going Israeli-Palestinian Conflict is about power and influence. The religious and ethnic divides are merely justifications for the continuation; with Terrorism, Jihadism, Islamic Radicalism, non-secular insurgents, and other asymmetric resources used as an accelerant. The more effective the accelerant the more dramatic the propaganda in the media becomes, the more encouraging -- which in turn furthers fuels the violence that comes forth.

The worse the economic conditions are in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, the more flammable the population becomes. The more the Palestinian Leadership concentrate on the furtherance of a hostile engagement, the more likely poverty will increase and development will decline.

It wasnt any Jewish nation as not existed at that time did they, and even today only one Jewish nation exists.

I thought the distribution of the religious groups was interest.

• Israeli Factbook

Religions:
Jewish 75%, Muslim 17.5%, Christian 2%, Druze 1.6%, other 3.9% (2013 est.)
​

• West Bank Factbook:

Religions:
Muslim 80-85% (predominantly Sunni), Jewish 12-14%, Christian 1-2.5% (mainly Greek Orthodox), other, unaffiliated, unspecified <1%
​

Israel's population concentration of Jewish people (75%) is nearly the same as the West Bank Muslim content (80-85%); with the inverse of Muslim 17.5% in Israel and a Jewish content of 12-14% in the West Bank. Similarly, the Christian content in Israel (2%) is so not different from that in the West Bank (1-2.5%).

The cause of the continued dispute in the on-going Israeli-Palestinian Conflict is about power and influence. The religious and ethnic divides are merely justifications for the continuation; with Terrorism, Jihadism, Islamic Radicalism, non-secular insurgents, and other asymmetric resources used as an accelerant. The more effective the accelerant the more dramatic the propaganda in the media becomes, the more encouraging -- which in turn furthers fuels the violence that comes forth.

The worse the economic conditions are in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, the more flammable the population becomes. The more the Palestinian Leadership concentrate on the furtherance of a hostile engagement, the more likely poverty will increase and development will decline.

No it isn't. It is about settler colonialism, dispossession, and all of the violence required to implement and maintain the project.

What nation sent the colonisers to palestine then, Saudi, Egypt, Syria or Yemen to start the violence and implemebt and maintain the command in the koran to KILL THE JEWS and RULE THE WORLD.


It wasnt any Jewish nation as not existed at that time did they, and even today only one Jewish nation exists.

I suggest we BOYCOTT this errant ZIONIST TERRORIST Poster,Tinnie he just isn't worth the bother......steve
