Slain Prophets

Mt. Olive

Now I am not particularly well versed in the Bible. I used to know it fairly well though and if memory serves there is a scene, in Revelations I think, that describes the murder or slaughter of two prophets in Israel, not sure where there, but in some holy place in Israel. The verses suggest that the entire world would witness it, thus placing that prophecy in the realm of the impossible until, of course, the invention of television.

What brings this up is this site I ran into for Christians praying for Israel, appropriately named IPray TV.  It features live web cams of Mt. Olive, Golgotha, and other holy sites,  and I am wondering if one of these locations is where those prophets are to be slain. If so, these web cams will certainly broadcast that event globally.

That would be so incredibly bizarre to witness.

The Lies of Hamas

Thoughts on the Operation

I saw lies. The world is already trying to fault Israel, telling everyone that civilians died here, and Israelis murdered there, But I was there. My feet were on the ground and I saw the truth. I saw that warnings were given, I saw the enemy that fought us. I saw the twelve year olds with missiles and RPGs strapped to their backs. I saw that it was with sadness and great anger Israeli troops saw the need to fire on people who crossed the red line, the danger zone which meant they saw us, and knew where they were. Old people mined with bombs, children armed with detonators, tunnels that opened in the ground to swallow soldiers of ours.

I watched my commanders passing out all of our food to the children who were taken prisoner. I received the commands “closed to fire on the right” if our intelligence had reported civilians in the area. I watched us, more often then not, taking cover when supposed civilian positions fired on us from the right. Yet the world thinks it can bend the truth. We were not allowed to fire on schools. We were told not to loot. We watched in anger as our bombs, so as not to fall on large civilian centers, fell on our own troops, so that we could tell the world we were attempting to scare the enemy while limiting civilian losses. Yet they won’t say that in the press.

I saw cowardice. We listened with concern when Hamas threatened to use snipers and bombs on us, to fight us every step of the way with their fifteen thousand man army, and we watched videos of full brigades parading, waving their weapons and threatening Israel. But as we invaded, they fled. They would attack in small groups, hit us with missiles and sniper fire, and then flee. The ‘warriors’ of Hamas were brave when their rockets fell unanswered on the schools of children and the homes of elderly, but they did not stand when the enemy called them up to answer for their crimes.

I saw miracles. Rockets that blazed past our houses, bullets that scarred the outside of windows we were watching from. A unit near ours that was walking in had RPGs pass straight between their ranks without hitting a single soldier. Mines that didn’t explode, mortar rounds that landed next to friends that didn’t explode. RPGs that blazed into the earthen barrier directly in front of our APC, detonating before penetration. The night walk through a neighborhood that wasn’t on the map, that was full of snipers and mines, according to reports, that we walked through unawares, by accident, without harm or incident. And that was just a taste of what we knew.

Palestine is a Myth and Hamas Nothing But Bloody Islamic Terrorists

I am so bloody tired of the appeasers. So tired of those who embrace evil, calling it compassion, who extend understanding towards terrorists and revile their own traditions and culture. That would, unfortunately, describe half of America – the half that voted Obama. I’d bet good money that the majority of those whining about the poor “palestinians” come from that faction of ignorant saps.

Palestine is a myth. Pure and simple. Hamas is a proxy for Iran and Iran is an islamic bully who has unequivocally declared that their avowed goal is the destruction of the West, particularly Israel and America.

Islamic cleric Salah Sultan appeared on Egypt’s Al-Nas TV last week and delivered a warning of death and destruction for America. Not only did he attack the U.S. for its military support of Israel in its fight against the Hamas terrorist organization, but he vowed retaliation such that more Americans would be killed than those Palestinians (and, presumably, Hamas terrorists) killed in the present conflict in Gaza, emphasizing that this would take place “soon”:

America, which gave [Israel] everything it needed in these battles, will suffer economic stagnation, ruin, destruction, and crime, which will surpass what is happening in Gaza. One of these days, the U.S. will suffer more deaths than all those killed in this third Gaza holocaust. This will happen soon.

He also invoked a notorious Islamic hadith on the inevitable annihilation of the Jews by Muslims:

The stone, which is thrown at the Jews, hates these Jews, these Zionists, because Allah foretold, via His Prophet Muhammad, that Judgment Day will not come before the Jew and the Muslim fight. The Jew will hide behind stones and trees, and the stone and the tree will speak, saying: “Oh Muslim, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him.” The only exception will be the Gharqad tree. (Source)

Rummaging through my archives I ran across an old draft from 2002 that included the two excerpts reproduced below. I remember once being appalled by such pronouncements – now I understand that nothing sane ever comes out of the mouth of a muslim.

…In the words of their leading theorist, Ismail Al-Faruqi, “Nothing could be greater than this youthful, vigorous and rich continent [of North America] turning away from its past evil and marching forward under the banner of Allahu Akbar [God is great].” Or, in the words of a teacher at the Al-Ghazly Islamic School in Jersey City, N.J.,

“Our short-term goal is to introduce Islam. In the long term, we must save American society. Allah will ask why I did not speak about Islam, because this piece of land is Allah’s property.”

a Daniel pipes piece 1999

This muslim slave of “allah” savors imagining what a Seder massacre must have felt like for the bomber, practically salivating at the prospect of spilling Jewish blood.

“You entered silently, with the faith and confidence with which Allah inspired you. Despite all the obstacles, fortifications, and security measures, you reached [the appointed place], sat down at one of the tables, talked, told a few jokes, and laughed with them, and then Allah decreed for you a martyr’s death. What heroism, courage, and strength – almost unmatched on the face of the earth!”

– Dr. Khalil Ibrahim Al-Sa’adat, a columnist, writing the Saudi government-controlled daily Al Jazirah. The quotation applauded the actions of the Palestinian suicide bomber who detonated himself at a Passover Seder in a Netanya hotel. April 1, 2002

ADL website

That is the voice of Islam. Arrogant barbarity. It hasn’t changed in a thousand years, and it certainly hasn’t changed since 2002. Islamic jihad is what is operative in Palestine right now. Not deranged Jews licking their chops over Palestinian dead, but the legitimate nation of Israel defending itself against the mental and spiritual pygmies of the middle east. Pygmies, such as those depicted in this video, chanting that Jews should be returned to the ovens, yet, no doubt, these are the  same cretins who bellow about hate speech when confronted with the truth about their deplorable “religion”.

In 2002 I was still confident that America had at least a decade before Islam could approach the level of toxicity here that it has achieved in Great Britain. Back then I thought that, surely, Americans would wake up. After all, videos like the one below are a dime a dozen. It’s pop culture for jihadists, to savor the death of the West, to hunger for the annihilation of our freedom and prosperity. But seven years later, Americans remain woefully ignorant. Or completely indifferent.

And as to be expected, Western media, CNN particularly, are invested not in truth, but in supporting the pigs of palestine, as LGF records here, here, here,here and here. The LA Slimes puts one of these execrable cretins on the payroll. Think the term “pigs of “palestine” is too strong? Too bad, I am done with niceties, attempts at civility. Civility should not be extended to barbarians nor the fools who support them. Given muslim behavior – staging their precious “innocent children” as props in their savagery, stealing incoming humanitarian aid and re-selling it – they deserve nothing but the missiles Israel serve them.

Obama’s ‘Redistributive Change’ and the Death of Freedom

Freedom accepts that we are different. The endless variety of life assures that. I had every opportunity to become just as good a basketball player as Michael Jordan, but he has natural gifts and worked harder. If we played a hundred times, he would whip me a hundred times by about 500 points. No Change, no matter how rapturously framed, could alter that result without chaining him to the bench and rendering the game no longer recognizable as basketball. That would be perversion, not justice.

Yet, this is just what Obama’s “economic justice” envisions: that the government can hamstring Michael Jordan and give me enough freebies that, despite his talent and industry, he can only play me to a tie, destroying his incentive to excel while the Bulls go out of business, no longer able to afford even my mediocrity. Naturally, such an absurd system requires change. Redistribution smothers the freedom our Constitution is designed to foster. It is therefore antithetical to our law.

The Never Present Obama

Via…JammieWearingFool

Dictators Mock Obama’s Ignorance

Focus, People

A life-or-death election

No amount of ignorance, stupidity, or wishful thinking will change the reality that there are people who are prepared to kill you and your family for no good reason at all. Not because of poverty, or envy, or discrimination or because of anything you’ve done. But because they hate you — whether you live in Jerusalem, Washington, London, or Paris. They hate everything you stand for — liberty, tolerance, equality. And their minds are made up. Closed — period — to the entreaties of naïve foreign diplomats or would-be presidents and vice presidents.
[...]
So when you cast your ballot this election, make no mistake: you are voting for or against a nuclear holocaust. Not because Barack Obama wants such a horror, but because he will not prevent it. He will still be talking when the point of no return in Iran’s nuclear program is reached. And the balance of power in the world will — with terrible consequences — have changed forever.

McCartney and Mickey: The Latest To Be Condemned to Death by Muslims

Muslims threaten to kill McCartney in Israel

Mohammad the Murdering Prophet

A Muslim terrorist leader based in Lebanon has threatened to send suicide bombers to kill former Beatle and international music icon Paul McCartney when he performs in Israel later this month.

McCartney will perform in Tel Aviv as part of ongoing celebrations marking the 60th anniversary of Israel’s modern rebirth.

In remarks carried by British tabloid Sunday Express, Sheikh Omar Bakri said that makes McCartney the enemy of all Muslims.

Bakri, a Syrian national who once resided in London, warned McCartney that if he will be targeted if he comes to Israel.

“Paul McCartney is the enemy of every Muslim. We have what we call ‘sacrifice’ operatives who will not stand by while he joins in a celebration of [Israeli] oppression. If he values his life Mr. McCartney must not come to Israel. He will not be safe there. The sacrifice operatives will be waiting for him.”

McCartney was reportedly shocked by the threat, but defiantly refused to cancel his Tel Aviv appearance. McCartney said that several anti-Israel political groups had also asked him to not visit the Jewish state.

Mickey Mouse must die, says Saudi Arabian cleric – Telegraph

Sheikh Muhammad Munajid claimed the mouse is “one of Satan’s soldiers” and makes everything it touches impure.

But he warned that depictions of the creature in cartoons such as Tom and Jerry, and Disney’s Mickey Mouse, had taught children that it was in fact loveable.

The cleric, a former diplomat at the Saudi embassy in Washington DC, said that under Sharia, both household mice and their cartoon counterparts must be killed.

Mr Munajid was asked to give Islam’s teaching on mice during a religious affairs programme broadcast on al-Majd TV, an Arab television network.

An Open Letter to Barack Obama: Go Home

An Open Letter to Barack Obama

by David Ha’ivri

Barack Obama, why don’t you just go home?

Barack, your visit here is just a waste of time; you’re not wanted or needed here. We’ll do just fine without you and you’ll probably do better with out us, too. Don’t come around here making as if you’re looking out for the good of Israel. We know who you are and who your friends are. Zigzagging back and forth about dividing or un-dividing Jerusalem won’t clear your history.

I’m not talking about your middle name. Any good Christian might have the middle name Hussein (although I can’t think of any others). We won’t hold that against you. There are worse things than having an Arab name; like for instance being supported by a known Jew-hater, bigot Louis Farrakhan of the Nation of Islam, who among other statements has accused the Jews of bringing on the Holocaust through cooperation with Hitler – “They helped him get the Third Reich on the road.” But, of course, it would be wrong to hold that against you, because you haven’t been rallying for his support (recently).

We can’t really blame you for the beliefs of Father Michael Pfleger, who embraces Black Liberation Theology, which claims that Jesus was Black – so the Jews have no claim to Israel and, therefore, the Muslims are the rightful heirs of the Holy Land. Those beliefs have nothing to do with you, aside from the fact that you have coined the man your “moral compass.” But one must admit that Pfleger is not your only mentor and also is not alone in looking up to Farrakhan.

Your spiritual mentor is Reverend Jeremiah Wright, who has praised Jimmy Carter for denouncing Zionism. Last year, the Trumpet Newsmagazine of Chicago’s Trinity United Church of Christ gave the Dr. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr. Trumpeter Award to Louis Farrakhan and said that he is a man who “truly epitomized greatness.” You are a member of that Church and Jeremiah Wright is its leader and your spiritual adviser.

Now you won’t go so far as to criticize Jimmy Carter, not even for meeting with the heads of Hamas, because, to paraphrase your words, “It’s not your place to criticize him.” That is, not until the next day, when you were seeking the support of Jewish leaders. Then you must have found a new place for criticism. Aren’t the Jews great for giving a guy a new vision and a sense of self-confidence? Is that what you meant by, “It’s time for change”?

Barack Hussein, we won’t hold it against you. But can you tell us what you mean by supporting a Palestinian State along side Israel? Do you mean a replay of the ethnic cleansing of Jews from Gaza three years ago? Do you foresee soldiers carrying men, women and children away from their homes, which are to be demolished by bulldozers? Palestinian rule brought on the endless rocket fire on Sderot and the thousands of Jewish refugees who have yet to find permanent homes or means of a steady income. Is that your vision of a new hope that Farakkhan’s Final Call website praises you for?

Barack Hussein, why don’t you just go home? Your visit to Israel this week is not because you’re looking out for the wellbeing of Israel and the Jewish people. You’re coming to Israel looking for the Jewish vote; your goal is to speak with the Jewish American voters through the press coverage of this tour to the holy land. You want them to think that you took the time off from your busy campaign to further peace in the Middle East. Your hope is that enough stupid Jews will misread the message and take it as an act of support for Israel.

Don’t use us or our land as a photo-op to transmit a twisted call for support to Jewish-American voters. You don’t fool us. We know who you and your friends are.

Barack Hussein, why don’t you just go home? But on the way out, remember the words you heard here from the proud Jewish settlers in Judea and Samaria: “This is our land!” We are back after two thousand years of forced exile and we are not about to leave it again.

Gaddafi Hopes Obama’s Supposed Support of Israel is Election Propaganda

Madman and dictator Col. Muammar Gaddafi, who once declared that “one day…Islam will disseminate its power over the European countries“, is ardently hoping that Obama’s pretense of supporting Israel is simply plain old election propaganda, as do all of Obama’s muslim supporters throughout the world. Gadaffi concludes that Obama’s “inferiority complex” prevents him from declaring camaraderie with Israel’s Palestinian enemies.

The more you dig, the more you discover that Barack Hussein Obama is like honey to a fly when it comes to attracting the support of muslims, terrorists and socialist scum. One wonders why his supporters remain oblivious. Of course, given that his primary base is composed of the hate-America crowd, they probably aren’t oblivious at all, just accepting.

There are elections in America now. Along came a black citizen of Kenyan African origins, a Muslim, who had studied in an Islamic school in Indonesia. His name is Obama. All the people in the Arab and Islamic world and in Africa applauded this man. They welcomed him and prayed for him and for his success, and they may have even been involved in legitimate contribution campaigns to enable him to win the American presidency. But we were taken by surprise when our African Kenyan brother, who is an American national, made statements that shocked all his supporters in the Arab world, in Africa, and in the Islamic world. We hope that this is merely an elections “clearance sale,” as they say in Egypt – in other words, merely an elections lie. As you know, this is the farce of elections – a person lies and lies to people, just so that they will vote for him, and afterwards, when they say to him: :”You promised this and that,” he says: “No, this was just elections propaganda.” This is the farce of democracy for you. He says: “This was propaganda, and you thought I was being serious. I was fooling you to get your votes.”

Allah willing, it will turn out that this was merely elections propaganda. Obama said he would turn Jerusalem into the eternal capital of the Israelis. This indicates that our brother Obama is ignorant of international politics, and is not familiar with the Middle East conflict.

H/T: LGF Comment

Blacks, Jews, Palestinians and Barack Obama

I am reposting in full a piece written by Kola Boof. The link was given in a comment to my post, Barack Obama Needs to Suggest to the Arabs that They Pony Up With Their Reparations.

I am not familiar with Miss Boof’s work or her political views, but I do think she is sadly mistaken in her support for Obama. However, she speaks eloquently of her love for Israel, and such sentiments are always welcome on this blog.

More to the point, she exhibits courage that is sadly lacking amongst Western journalists. She speaks the truth about Islam and Israel and thus has earned herself a fatwa condemning her to death by beheading. She finds sanctuary now in America.

Which leads me to mention this, though not directly pertaining to the topic of this post, it is critical for Americans to come to grips with the noose tightening around our throats. At The Midnight Sun a very important discussion is going on about the severe threat that freedom of speech is under in Canada and throughout the West. If we in the West do not rise up to save such a fundamental freedom, Miss Boof will no longer find sanctuary in America either. None of us will.
So read the words of one who faces death for saying them. If Americans do not wake up, we will all soon face the same.

Obama’s Support of Israel and Not Palestine

by
Kola Boof

You constantly hear the “African Americans” despair over Obama’s support of
Israel and not Palestine–but that’s because the Black Americans (who are only
400 years old, which is a “baby”) do not have the FACTS.

As a Black Person from North Africa…I also support Israel over Palestine.

The Israelis don’t purchase Black African slaves as the Palestinians do and the
Israelis don’t sterilize black women so as to use them as sex slaves.

Dinka girl children are purchased from Sudan for $14 a piece and you can find them
in Arab territorities like Palestine, Syria and Jordan with their tongues cut out
and working in Arab kitchens.

I have lived in Israel, and other than the troops in the street, it was very much like
living in the United States.

If I had to find a husband–I could get one in Israel, but not in Palestine.

The White Israeli man is less colorstruck than the Brown-skinned Palestinian man.

The Palestinians, who used to be “black”, have a notorious fear of producing black
babies and returning to their former dark coloring. That’s why they prefer to
sterilize black little girls before using them as sex slaves.

The Israelis also don’t have a word like “abeed” that denigrates the black race,
a word that all Arabs (including the Palestinians) use on a daily basis.

Israel is a White, Racist nation…in the same way that the United States is a White,
Racist nation. It’s definitely no worse than here.

But Palestine and the Arab world is much worse.

No black woman who has been free would ever want to live in the Arab nations
unless she was a “mulatto” Black American—because then, she would not be
considered “black” by the Arabs and could enjoy taking part in their colorist
racism.

Of course, Black Americans are notoriously IGNORANT about what the Arab world
USES THEM for in relation to leverage in American Politics and have not actually
attempted to live in these colorstruck racist fanatical Arab Muslim countries that they so romanticize.

The only time I’ve ever heard Palestinians and Arabs talk their “brown brother” b.s.
is over here in the United States where they have a political agenda that requires
the support of Black Americans.

But go to North Africa and see what they’re talking.

And of course Black American MEN have a particular fondness for Muslim countries,
because of the chronic “sexism” that less powerful men have always craved in their
struggle to feel more like men.

In my opinion, being covered up from head to toe and being told that “woman is impure”
is nothing more than enslavement of the soul. Women’s bodies are not dirty and the
woman’s menstrual cycle is the symbol of humanity itself, so it’s an abomination against
God for women to be covered up and marginalized in this way.

And, as far as I’m concerned, both Christianity and Islam are the two worse things that
ever happened to the African continent.

Naturally, my comments on this issue have caused me to be demonized, lied on and
discredited by all manner of Oil Company, Black American Pro-Palestine speaker and
Arab-American millionaire businessmen who pay the media to silence those of us from
North Africa who dare expose “brown brothers” of the Arab Empire for what they really
are–but yet and still, I am the more powerful one.

As an African mother, I will always support powerful white Israel before oppressed
brown Palestine.

As one of my poems says: “the slave is the devil, too.”

And because Palestine knows so well about the evils of oppression, it is all the more
shocking and unacceptable that they consider Black Africans to be mere “animals”
and “abeed” unworthy of full human recognition–yet expect me to march in the streets
for their greasy rat faced asses just because they raped a black woman and waved
their fists in their air.

No. What I want as National Chairwoman of the SSPP is guns and ammunition from
Israel.

That is what South Sudan needs.

The lesser devil can be used by Blacks in Sudan as we struggle to fight back
against the Imperialist Arab Empire.

It’s one of the reasons I love and support Barack Obama—because he’s for Israel.

The truth comes out – French court Rules Al Dura footage is hoax

The Bastard Contingent of "Christian" Leftists Continue to Spit on Israel.

Tensions are re-emerging between Jewish organizations and some mainline Protestant churches in the wake of a renewed drive for churches to divest from companies doing business with Israel.
The United Methodist Church opened discussions last Friday on a resolution calling for divestment from Caterpillar, the tractor manufacturer, because the company supplies Israel with bulldozers used in building the separation barrier and in demolishing Palestinian homes. The divestment resolution comes only months after the publication of a church-sponsored report referring to the creation of the State of Israel as the “original sin.”

U.S. Methodist Church renews drive for divestment from Israel – Haaretz – Israel News

What is particularly distressing about these malicious efforts is, should , god forbid, Obama wins, these Methodists and Protestants will find more support for their heretical anti-semitism. They certainly share a common cause with Obama’s Pastor Wright, whose obvious devotion to the anti-Semitic Farrakhan has been well documented.

Obama makes a pretense now of shunning both “Pastor” Wright and Farrakhan ( along with his recently dismissed anti-Israel political advisor, Samantha Powers)

…back in January, Mr. Obama had asked Mr. Wright if he would begin the event by delivering a public invocation.

But Mr. Wright said Mr. Obama called him the night before the Feb. 10 announcement and rescinded the invitation to give the invocation.

“Fifteen minutes before Shabbos I get a call from Barack,” Mr. Wright said in an interview on Monday, recalling that he was at an interfaith conference at the time. “One of his members had talked him into uninviting me,” Mr. Wright said, referring to Mr. Obama’s campaign advisers. (source)

and…

Obama has repeatedly tried to distance himself from his pastor’s embarrassing admiration for Farrakhan, telling a meeting of Jewish leaders in Cleveland this month that he believed giving the Nation of Islam leader an award was “a mistake” and comparing his pastor to “an old uncle who sometimes will say things that I don’t agree with.” (source)

Financing Palestinian Barbarians

My goodness, yes.! Let’s give those Palestinians yet more money…

The US State Department announced Friday that it would send the Palestinians $14 million in special humanitarian aid.

The aid will be transferred to a million Palestinian refugees in the Gaza Strip and more than 70,000 refugees in the West Bank through the United Nations Relief and Works Agency. (Link)

… after all, their supply of counterfeit currency is probably exhausted. Necessities like big screen TVs, cell phones and motor cycles have been denied these barbarians long enough. Where is your freaking compassion?

…a Palestinian-american friend of mine just came back from visiting his grandparents in Gaza ( just jumped over the fence and back he said, no one is controlling the borders apparently), and he was telling me how the entire “they are hungry people looking for food” headline story is a crock of shit. He laughingly told me that they are buying motorcycles, mattresses and TV’s and other such basic survival needs (the media is confirming it if you think I am lying you big morons), and how some of his family members after going to Al Areesh-on the first day of the “people power” event-for vacation mind you, were like “This is Areesh? This sucks! Gaza is better!” and then went back the next day. He also told me that the price of the AK 47 in Gaza has now dropped to a measly 400 JD’s. There is apparently too much supply to the demand. Yay for Open Borders! (Link)

Or take poor Abdul . This misunderstood murderer Palestinian is laboring under onerous conditions to achieve his ambitions. If America is to continue underwriting the spilled blood of Israel, we should provide better working conditions for those who whose sole aim in life is to achieve as many Israeli kills as they can.

No matter what Israel does, the rockets from the Gaza Strip just keep coming. Young men like Abdul are the reason why. He studies by day, but at night he builds bombs for the Islamic Jihad. He and his fellow militants can produce up to 100 per night.

[...]

The young men produce rockets for the Islamic Jihad. Day after day, their rudimentary bombs land on Israeli villages, fields and kibbutzim.

[...]

Abdul is 22 but, tall and lanky as he is, he could still pass for 16. He has been making rockets for three and a half years and says he has finished hundreds of Qassams. A veteran with a double life: He studies geography during the day and makes his contribution to the Jihad at night.

Qassams are primitive missiles lacking any guidance system. Building one is “child’s play,” Abdul says…His mother, who worries so much about him, will be glad tomorrow morning when her son wakes up in his bed. “On the one hand, she is proud of me (Link)

Worth Quoting: Death of the Bush Doctrine

But it is the Bush Doctrine that has been shelved. In its hunger for Arab support against Iran — and perhaps in a quest for a historic “legacy” — the administration has dropped “with us or with the terrorists.” It is hellbent instead on bestowing statehood upon a regime that stands unequivocally with the terrorists. “Frankly, it’s time for the establishment of a Palestinian state,” Rice says.

When George W. Bush succeeded Bill Clinton, he was determined not to replicate his predecessor’s blunders in the Middle East, a determination that intensified after 9/11. Yet he too has succumbed to the messianism that leads US presidents to imagine they can resolve the Arab-Israeli conflict. Clinton ‘s legacy in this arena was the second intifada, which drenched the region in blood. To what fresh hell will Bush’s diplomacy lead?

read it all at …The Jerusalem Connection International: Death of the Bush Doctrine

H/T: Center for Vigilant Freedom

Words Worth Quoting

Bush’s ignorance about the true nature of Islam has put all of the West in harms way.

Bush makes some very glib, naive (very Western) assumptions that are quite false: “I believe, deep in the soul of every man, woman, and child on the face of this Earth is the desire to live in a free society. And I also believe free societies yield peace. And, therefore, this notion of two states living side by side in peace is based upon the universality of freedom, and if given a chance, the Palestinian people will work for freedom.”

This very commonly held assumption ignores religion and ideology and their power. The Islamic vision is not one of freedom — which is, in a way, actually anathema to religious Muslims. Islam is about submission. (Islam in Arabic means surrender!) And radical Islam is about imposing that submission. Palestinians passionately committed to their Islam and the word of Muhammad are more concerned with driving out the Jews and controlling the land they believe is theirs than with instituting “freedoms.”

To establish policy without this essential understanding is to miss the boat entirely and to generate an unstable situation.

Dear George and Condi,

Dear George and Condi,

Looks like stabbing Israel in the back is really working out well for you. And all of the billions in American treasure that you have freely rendered to the “Palestinians” are, obviously, so very much appreciated.

Yeah, can’t wait for the next Annapolis. It’s always such a heartwarming experience to watch America being raped by the feral friends that you two damnable fools drag in.

Burning American flags, thousands of Palestinian protesters took to the Gaza streets this afternoon to protest against the visit of U.S. President George W. Bush. The protesters, amassed by Hamas, brandished banners which defined Bush “assassin and vampire”. During the rally puppets of the American president were raised and then burned. Israeli flags were also burned. Eye witnesses reported at least 20,000 participants in the rally, promoted for several days also through appeals launched in the mosques. “Bush is not welcome,” a Hamas representative repeated from the platform. Members of the extremist movement pointed out that since his arrival at the Ben Gurion airport of Tel Aviv today, President Bush “made sure in his speech encouraging and backing the rights of Israel, without saying a single word on the Palestinian victims and on our rights”. Bush will meet tomorrow in Ramallah in the West Bank Palestinian National Authority President Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen), who is in open conflict with Hamas, whereas he will not visit the Gaza Strip.

I’d Make a Lousy Jew

I support Israel. Period. End of story. But I’d make a lousy Jew. I don’t know quite how to describe this ongoing, haunting sense of loss that I have come to find that I live with everyday. But I imagine that an Israel Jew knows loss intimately, and yet, they fight on. I, I stand here benumbed, horrified at the seemingly inexorable erasure of America. I don’t even begin to know how to live with the knowledge that all that I cherish in my heart, all that I cherished for my children’s future is at grave risk. Yet, a Jew will have the courage to raise his family in Israel while her borders are besieged and a ravenous enemy chants for the death of his children.

Before 911, I never understood that so much of the faith that I have had in my ability to chart my own course in life, to win and lose on my own terms, to grab for brass rings, to envision a bright and shining future for my children….all those dreams that gave me succor were premised on a free and strong America. Yep, a Yankee Doodle Dandy, Founding fathers, Fourth of July America…. I have believed in all of it, even when as a callow youth, I scorned it. Yet, even then, I believed the surety of America’s promise would continue to be there for me and my children, just as surely as the mantle wraps the earth to it’s core. I never once imagined that America would fail to safely house our future. I never allowed that it was possible for America to be suborned so handily from within and betrayed so readily by her leaders.

But a Jew must be used to all of that. The horror that I feel as I understand that Bush has no intention of protecting our borders is nothing compared to what an Israeli Jew must feel as Israel is repeatedly raped by her leaders and supposed allies. Imagine our government allowing Mexico to lay claim to portions of the Southwest. That is the only way I can imagine the sense of violation a Jew must feel as they watch the machinations of Bush and Rice and Olmert.

The following summation of Annapolis, sadly, rings true.

Recently, I suggested that the US Administration reached a separate peace agreement with Iran. According to the US-Iran peace deal, Iran winded down its support for Iraqi guerrillas, and the US guaranteed it won’t bomb the Iranian nuclear facilities. Iran made good on its promise, and allowed the US Administration a tactical PR victory of reduced casualties in Iraq. The US Administration waited with fulfilling its part of the game until after the Annapolis peace show. Refusing to attack Iran over its nuclear program earlier would have likely derailed Israeli commitment to the Annapolis peace parley.
