Who would not slap a soldier after years of trauma and direct assaults? — an interview with Lynn Gottlieb

What is your impression of the reaction to Ahed Tamimi’s slapping of an Israeli soldier?

Gottlieb:
The response to Ahed Tamimi’s slap by many Jewish people reveals the sexist and racist attitudes, beliefs and behaviors that impact a large portion of the Jewish community. The vile accusations against this child are stunning. Their purpose is to flip the script on Palestinian suffering and blame the victim instead of assuming responsibility.

I wonder: who would not slap a soldier after years of trauma as a result of recurring night invasions, administrative detentions with no possibility for justice or a fair hearing, daily destruction of village houses, and direct assaults, one of which targets your cousin in the head?

Israeli soldiers invade and scream in a strange language, push and shove with an assault rifle, destroy personal objects in homes, and kidnap and hurt friends and loved ones. And some people complain about Ahed’s slap?!

※→ et al,

Less than a decade ago, the Arab Palestinians made it clear → in very straightforward ways → that there was a growing hatred for America. Yet, if I was actually defending a dissertation in the subject, I would undoubtedly be called upon to explain the current flow of US Aid ($) to the Palestinians. In 2013, a mere 5 years ago, more than three-quarters of the Arab Palestinian Population considered America as ⇒ more of an "enemy" than a partner in the Middle East. In January 2018 (yes 2018), The (by) Breitbart Jerusalem reports:

The Palestinians should cut all ties with the United States because
of “racist” and “ignorant” comments US Ambassador David Friedman made
to The Jerusalem Post last week, Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum said...

​

Less than a couple weeks later,

⇒ that included highly objectionable references to the United States and Israel, signaling a temporary halt in direct Palestinian involvement with Washington toward a peace deal. The particulars of his speech will be picked apart by analysts in the days ahead, and while he may or may not be able to walk some of them back in media interviews, the larger questions about the PA's outlook on diplomacy will persist.

Then, as you might expect from a people ⇒ afflicted with some sort of Disorder, Dissociative Identity Disorder (DID) ⇒

Palestinian officials voiced outrage on Wednesday over President Donald Trump's threat to cut funding to the Palestinian Authority, calling his tweets "blackmail" in the aftermath of the U.S. administration's recognition of Jerusalem as Israel's capital.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas's office rebuffed the U.S. leader's remarks, saying that "Jerusalem is not for sale, neither for gold nor silver."

GAZA, June 20 (UPI) -- U.S. and European leaders are trying to blackmail Palestinians by funding President Mahmoud Abbas' newly reorganized government, Hamas leaders charged.

Hamas leaders reacted Tuesday to the decision by the United States and the European Union to lift a financial aid embargo against the Palestinian Authority, the Jerusalem Post reported Wednesday.

​

In terms of the specific Abbas threat to cut all ties with the US, we should posture ourselves now and gradually move those assets we want to keep out of the West Bank. In order for the threat to be credible, we must actually carry it out. And base on our return-for-the-aid investment, we should be very quick about making cuts to nations of little or no consequence to the US.

And base on our return-for-the-aid investment,

That implies economic development. Israel will not let that happen in Palestine.

Palestinians love Americans. We are welcomed there with open arms. This does not hold true for the assholes in our government.

RE: Palestine Today
※→ P F Tinmore, et al,

Well, it is my opinion that you have a shaded impression of US Foreign Policy.

And base on our return-for-the-aid investment,

That implies economic development. Israel will not let that happen in Palestine.

(COMMENT)

✪ Well, when a student goes to school and studies, generally, good grades are the return-on-the-investment. You can put it into economic terms, if you want to convert the cost of time into money, and the improvement in earning as outcome of good grades; or a higher paying job. Similarly, the various Diplomatic, Intelligence and Security returns-on-investment are a factor of how appreciative the Arab Palestinians are in terms of the aid and assistance the US gives them. If the Arab Palestinians are not appreciative of the aid and assistance the US gives them, then of course the US will not see the Arab Palestinians render the US aid and assistance in terms of Diplomatic, Intelligence and Security efforts that reinforce the US Foreign Policy interests and the amplification of US National Security Interests.

✪ If the Arab Palestinians see no value in the aid and assistance (A&A) the US gives them; then the return on the aid and assistance than the Arab Palestinians return on the investment (ROI) will not be judged as valuable; and thus and nothing positive to the in terms of Diplomatic, Intelligence and Security efforts will be put forth with US Foreign Policy interests and US National Security Interests being considered.​

∴ That, lack of a positive effort on the part of the Arab Palestinians should then cancel-out any positive effort on the part of the US providing aid and assistance the Arab Palestinians.

(FORMULA for COST EFFECT AID and ASSISTANCE)
ψ What the US Receives in return must be equal to or greater than the value of US AID and ASSISTANCE.

US ROI ≥ US A&A Payout
This only makes sense.

(COMMENT)

If the Arab Palestinians were a credible threat and actually considered the Government of the the United States an Enemy of the Palestinian State, they would already be under US Occupation; they would not have to worry about the Israelis. The US Mediterranean Fleet would be anchored just outside of Palestinian guns range.

If the Arab Palestinians consider the US to be an enemy, then the US should not be rendering assistance to any such an opponent. That would be a from of "Treason."

18 U.S. Code § 2381 - Treason
Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States, levies war against them or adheres to their enemies, giving them aid and comfort within the United States or elsewhere, is guilty of treason and shall suffer death, or shall be imprisoned not less than five years and fined under this title but not less than $10,000; and shall be incapable of holding any office under the United States.

(June 25, 1948, ch. 645, 62 Stat. 807; Pub. L. 103–322, title XXXIII, § 330016(2)(J), Sept. 13, 1994, 108 Stat. 2148.)
​

This is just another example of where the Arab Palestinians have lost touch with reality. They can say ridiculous crap like that, and get away with that; but they would never put that in official Diplomatic Note (formal written communication between the countries).

Most Respectfully,
