PALESTIANISM 2014- Part 1

BY SIMON FISCHLER 

Stateless and still seeking the destruction of Israel -- what does that get you?

PALESTINIAN NATIONALISM!

Maybe instead it should be called VICTIMISM? 

That’s simply because of this indisputable fact: when a nation spends all of its time blaming another party for its problems, it becomes the eternal victim whether or not it really is the victim. 

A brief historical review proves that this “victimization” has enveloped the Palestinians from the get-go.

With that in mind, let me point out that nearly every Israel-basher conveniently forgets a pivotal point.

This is fact; the United Nations agreed on 29 November 1947 to two states in the land of Israel. 

One of these states was clearly worded for the Jews and one for the Arabs.

The Jews agreed to accept; the Arabs did not and decided on war, a war specifically to annihilate the Jews of Israel.

We know the history! 

This great war that the Arab leadership promised it’s people would bring about the complete destruction and genocide of Israel and Jewish life in Israel. This war ended up leading to the defeat of the Arabs and Israel’s independence.

What’s more, they were defeated despite having an overwhelming advantage of multiple Arab armies arrayed against a rag-tag, patched-together, nascent Israeli Defense Forces.

Nonetheless, Israel (the real David) managed to secure her Independence with the help of nobody.

The Palestinians lost everything allotted to them from the United Nations, they did this even with the help of the United Kingdom and the whole oil producing world! 

Somehow, the way the pro-Palestinians put it, this is all Israel’s fault.

WAR, CIVIL WAR AND TRULY WANTING PEACE!

During the Israeli war of independence, while Israel was fighting for its life, David Ben Gurion fought a short but nasty Civil War. 

It lasted for only one skirmish, but in that battle Ben Gurion gave the okay to sink a ship filled with badly needed weapons for Israel’s fight for independence and Holocaust survivors. 

The ship was called the Altalena and it belonged to Menachem Begin’s underground militia, the Irgun.

This is an important piece of history from which the Palestinians have never learned.

If Mahmoud Abbas is not willing -- nor able --to corral the mini-armies belonging to Hamas and Islamic Jihad, the Palestinians never will have a state, nor will they deserve a state! 

Ben Gurion knew this and it is why he sunk the Altalena.

The Palestinians simply cannot legitimately blame Israel forever if there are thousands of armed militants running the Gaza strip! 

A reflection on The Oslo Accords reveals how completely the Palestinians have enrobed themselves in this guise of victim.

Consider what unfolded at Oslo.

Israel had everything to lose and the Palestinians had everything to gain.

In return for the Gaza strip and Judea/Samaria, that is land for building and land for defense, Israel would get a piece of paper saying that there was now a peace partnership between Israel and the Palestinians; and that Israel existed as a state.

There was, however, a paper problem.

Israel already did exist, so who needed it on a piece of paper?

Then, Ehud Barak committed one of the world’s most ingenious victories in a hand of poker!  

Knowing the end result and hoping to expose his enemy he offered Yasser Arafat all of Gaza, 97% of Judea and Samaria, plus East Jerusalem and the Muslim and Christian quarters of The Old City. 

Ehud Barak knew this was an offer that no sane negotiating leader could refuse.

Sadly the military genus Ehud Barak failed to take into consideration the prevalent anti-Semitism in Western Europe! 

When Arafat said no to Palestinian Statehood only America rallied to Israel’s side! 

Not only were Barak and U.S. President Bill Clinton rebuffed, Arafat then spit in their face by starting a war against Israeli citizens!

What has been revealed in the years since the start of Arafat’s war presents a more sinister picture of the Palestinians true intentions. 

The Palestinians were planning to go to war as soon as the Camp David talks failed. 

They used Sharon’s visit to the Temple Mount, Judaism’s most holy site, as an excuse. 

It is fact that Sharon’s trip was also planned ahead of time with the Palestinian leadership to guarantee a smooth and pleasant visit for Sharon with no violence. 

As we know today the Palestinians intentionally did the opposite. 

Here is a quote from Imad Falouji who was then the PA Communications Minister: “The Intifada was carefully planned since the return of (Palestinian President) Yasser Arafat from Camp David negotiations rejecting the U.S. conditions." 

A statement from Mamduh Nofal, former military commander of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, supplied more evidence of pre-September 28 military preparations. Nofal recounts that “Arafat told us, ‘Now we are going to fight, so we must be ready.’"

During Arafat’s War more than four thousand Palestinians were killed, mostly in Israeli retaliatory strikes to suicide bombings and attacks against Israeli citizens. 

The Palestinian economy was totally destroyed and Palestinian society is still on the brink of collapse. 

Yet the Palestinians blame Israel for their sorrow, instead of taking responsibility for their actions. 

Just as Europe and the Arab Supremacist, Palestinian Authority are attempting to blame Israel for the failure of the Kerry Peace Talks! 

DON'T TRUST THE LYING TWIN

By Schmoel Yitzhak

He lies with a forked tongue. -- Anonymous. 

A forked tongue has two prongs. With vipers, in particular, you don't want them near you.

When it comes to Middle East politics, one prong can be called Barack Obama and the other John Kerry.

Together they comprise the viper determine to poison the State of Israel.

Over and over again they lie with a forked tongue and, inevitably, Benjamin Netanyahu -- among others -- is paralyzed by their palaver.

What lies? 

Start with Obama's red lines; the ones which, if crossed, would produce a powerful White House response. 

Iran's nuclear noodniks crossed the line a long time ago. 

First the chief executive responded by burying his head in the oil sands. Then he pulled it out and decided to kiss the tooches of Tehran's mullahs.

Thus, when it came to Iran, the president's red line turned frighteningly white.

Was that an aberration? 

Not with this lying bozo. Remember the red line he drew in case Bashar al-Assad employed poison gas against the Syrian rebels?

When it was proven beyond a shadow of a doubt by United Nations inspectors -- among others -- that chemical weapons were being used by Assad's forces, Obama erased the red line and did what he does best -- nothing.

So, what's the lesson here; especially for Bibi? 

Don't trust the lying twins, Obama and his trusty, dusty First Lord of Mendacity, Kerry.

And what lies has Kerry spouted?

For starters, the secretary of state launched his high-falootin' round of Israeli-Arab peace talks assuring both sides that the conferences will be held with no pre-talk concessions demanded of either side; and that seemed fair enough.

Except that fair when it comes to the Arabs is equated with giving in to every single Arab demand. And, as sure as the sun rises in the East, Mahmoud Abbas announced that the Palestinians would not proceed with discussions unless Israel released what amounted to an astounding number of prisoners with blood on their hands.

It was, as the Kerry camp, likes to call it, "a goodwill gesture."

Now, in a normal, civilized world, of which the Arabs are not a part, one "goodwill gesture" would inspire another from the other side. In this case the reciprocal trade agreement should have required the Arabs to once and for all recognize Israel as the Jewish State, which it is.

Ah, but in the Lying Land of Kerry, no such goodwill gesture was forthcoming; only more demands from Abbas and more threats to quit the discussions and go running to the UN for recognition for a state that never should be acknowledged in the first place.

And with Kerry returning for yet another round of talks, the lying will continue. Rather than being even-handed, Obama's puppet will attempt to force-feed more concessions from Israel and nothing from the other side. 

Or, as Eli Hazan writes in Israel Hayom, the Palestinians have been drawing a contradictory line basically destroying everything Israel has tried so hard to build."

I completely agree with Hazan. Palestinian textbooks omit a map of Israel. Tel Aviv does not even exist as far as Arab schools are concerned. Meanwhile, Palestinians in Gaza continue to hurl missiles at Israeli cities. This is what Bibi gets for playing Mister Nice Guy.

"That (Arab) contradictory line," writes Hazan, "forces Israel to wonder and seriously question the Palestinians true intentions. It reminds us of the 1990s when Yasser Arafat would talk about peace in English and then turn around and give legitimacy to terrorism."

It's happening right now and you don't have to be hit by a Gaza-based missile to understand the point. 

"We are repeating past mistakes," Hazan correctly concludes.

Kerry and Obama disagree and that, among other reasons, is why they speak with a forked tongue.

The best thing Kerry can do this time around is draw another red line. You can be sure that if it isn't directed at harming Israel, it will disappear!
