Get Used to It: Israel Is Here to Stay​

October 24, 2012
By David Solway

---

For it is almost inconceivable that a few million citizens of a newly established nation could successfully resist the military onslaught of vastly larger armies time and again. It must also contend against the enmity of its nominal allies in the West, the propaganda campaigns of the world’s major NGOs and opinion-forming bodies, the lies and slanders of the political and media elites, the ignorance of multitudes, and the specter of daily terror. It is equally inconceivable that this same beleaguered nation could at the same time become one of the world’s leading innovators in science, technology, medicine and agriculture, offering benefits to mankind out of all proportion to its numbers and circumstances—while reaping, for the most part, resentment, envy and violence.

For some, the continued existence of Israel is a sign of divine solicitude; for others, of human fortitude, hope and commitment at its most incandescent. But whatever the reason for this rarest of phenomena, the emergence of the theoretically impossible, it is a safe bet that Israel will still be around when its adversaries and detractors have succumbed to their own contradictions and dilemmas. Get used to it. Israel is here to stay.

If Iran gives Hezbollah rockets already, what happens when they make a few nukes?​

As was posted recently, President Obama was asked what keeps him up at night. First, he said nothing usually. When asked again he said he really sleeps well. The third time he was asked he said sometimes "Pakistan." Nothing like a bunch of ignorant Muslims with nuclear weapons looking for a excuse to blow up India.

Pure propaganda...Polls in Pakistan have consistently shown right left or center that they hate Israel more than India.

It must be nice living on a warm and fuzzy planet like Kumbaya. Did you have to make it Jew-free and White-free before everybody started loving one another and holding hands?

Not at all. Jews and whites are all completely welcome in my world, because I don't fear other cultures.

An 11-year-old letter from a professional pro-Palestinian / anti-Israeli fifth columnist who happens to be Jewish?

I wonder if he'll clap and dance with glee when the Arabs push the Jews into the Med?

Hmmmmmm...

Thanks for proving him right!


You just said, what he said, you'd say.

And I said it in full advance awareness that he had said such a thing.

Reiterating the point struck me as far more important and beneficial than worrying about such minutiae.

Reiterating that does not negate the validity of the sentiment nor its accuracy nor my perception of his role as a fifth columnist and his practical standing as a turncoat against his own people.

Benedict Arnold had a real way with words, too.

Israel and the UN Human Rights Council Circus

October 31, 2013 By Joseph Klein

...

The problem for Israel is that the Human Rights Council, which is dominated by Islamist states and their allies, stacks the deck against Israel, which has been subject to far more condemnations by the Human Rights Council than Iran, Sudan, Syria and other serial human rights violators combined. The Obama administration’s decision to join the Human Rights Council, said to be for the purpose of influencing this body from within, has not changed the Council’s anti-Israel bias.

Israel is the only country listed on the Human Rights Council’s permanent agenda. Moreover, it is the only country subjected to an investigatory mandate that examines the actions of only one side to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict – Israel – and presumes the Jewish state to be guilty, while giving Hamas, Hezbollah and their state sponsors a free pass.

Moreover, Israel is still prevented from actually joining the Human Rights Council itself because it is denied full membership in any regional group of nations, from which the Council members are selected. Geographically, Israel should be a part of the Asian Nations Group, as are its Arab neighbors, but Arab nations who are members of that group have blocked Israel from joining. As a consolation prize, Israel has been relegated to limited membership in a group known as “Western Nations and Others” (WEOG), which bars Israel from group membership privileges in any UN activities outside of New York. Thus, unless the WEOG changes its policies, which Israel has requested, it cannot represent the WEOG or any other regional group on the Human Rights Council which persistently judges its conduct.

Nevertheless, Israel decided to swallow its revulsion at the Council’s modus operandi and participate in the Universal Periodic Review session. It candidly admitted its imperfections, but defended its overall human rights record. Israeli ambassador Eviator Manor also pointed out to the Council that “Israel has been regularly subject to significant, and often politically motivated, scrutiny over the years, disproportional to the worldwide human rights situation. The promotion of human rights is a just yet complex task in every society – especially in a democratic, multicultural society that constantly confronts terrorism…”

...

Israel is expected by Falk and the Human Rights Council that he represents to take the persistent terrorist threats it faces lying down. In the world inhabited by the hypocrites who denounce Israel while abusing the human rights of their own residents, Israel is expected to look the other way while the “resistance fighters” build their tunnels of terror and launch their rockets against Israeli civilians. Fortunately, while Israel was willing to play along with the meaningless Universal Period Review, it shows no inclination to drop its guard or to back away from defending its citizens with whatever means it deems necessary. Hopefully, this will remain true no matter what the UN Human Rights Council may think.

Israel treats the Palestinian's, like the nazis treated the jews.

As far as human rights go, that's pretty bad.

Washington’s Will Is Done: Bloody Terrorists Freed

October 31, 2013 By P. David Hornik

Just after midnight on Wednesday, Israel Hayom reports, 26 Palestinian security prisoners were set free by Israel. Twenty-one were sent to the West Bank, five to Gaza.

All of these prisoners were convicted either of murder or attempted murder. They constitute the second of four groups of 26 prisoners who are being released periodically during the current Israeli-Palestinian peace talks. For Palestinian Authority president Mahmoud Abbas, freeing them was an iron-clad condition for entering the talks at all. Israel acceded to it under heavy U.S. pressure, spearheaded by Secretary of State John Kerry.

“…Palestinians in Ramallah and Gaza,” Israel Hayom informs us,

celebrated the release of the prisoners. The 21 prisoners returning to the West Bank attended an official reception at the Mukataa in Ramallah, where…Abbas greeted them personally.

“We welcome our brothers the heroes coming from behind the bars to a world of freedom and liberty,” Abbas was quoted as saying.

None of the American diplomatic personnel in Israel attended this reception. That may not seem worth pointing out. Wouldn’t it be a diplomatic slap to Israel? And wouldn’t it contradict American values to attend a celebratory reception for terrorist killers?

Indeed, it would. But why, then, did it not unacceptably contradict American values to pressure Israel to free them in the first place?

Indeed, these 26 are a nasty lot. Here are just a few examples from a partial list compiled by Israel National News:

...

Just how difficult it has been to get along with the Obama administration on the Iranian issue was evident this week in Kerry’s thinly veiled reference to Netanyahu’s “fear tactics.”

It may seem like “fear tactics” to those who split their time between Washington and Martha’s Vineyard or Nantucket. To Israelis, the “fear” induced by batches of freed terrorists and Iranian genocidal threats is quite real. At some points in Israeli history deferring to America has turned out to be more dangerous and costly than not doing so. This may be one of them.

And what he said was true, they do not want to drive you into the sea.

That's the lie you keep telling yourself, in order to give your life meaning, which is the continued tyranny over Palestinian slaves.

 

[Billo_Really]

You're full of shit boy if that were the case there would be no so-called "Palestians"

You're genocide just happens to be slower than theirs, other than that, there's not much of a difference between the two.

You both demonize these groups at every turn.
You both treat them as though they're sub-human.
You both practice ethnic cleansing.
You both blame these groups for all the problems in your country.
You both enact laws that make them 2nd class citizens.
You both feel any violence against them is justified (no matter how heiness the act).
You both think your society is the master race.
You both are taking land by force.
You both think your actions are by Devine right.
You both think you're without sin and have done nothing wrong.​

The nazis wanted an Aryian nation, you want a Jewish state.

Is there anything I left out?

Oh yes, the comment by an IDF commander saying you need to be more "judo-nazi" in order to defeat a population that is already defeated.

Well, they're already using Willie Peat.

What difference does the method of extermination make? Dead is dead. When people are gone, they're gone.

Holocaust victims must be looking at Israel today going, "WTF is this shit! I guess my death meant nothing to them?"
