Western governments fund NGO's like Amnesty that place their main effort in attacking democratic governments

Showing us just where NGO's place their emphasis (when not bashing Israel) it was interesting to look at Amnesty International's page on torture.

Did you expect Saudi Arabia or Syria to top the list? Maybe Chechniya or Ingushetia where Russia and its puppet rulers 'disappear' troublesome persons when then they are not just shot down in the street?

Of course not, good old democratic USA is firmly in Amnesty's sights:

Torture and Other Ill-Treatment

In the years since 9/11, the U.S. government has repeatedly violated both international and domestic prohibitions on torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment in the name of fighting terrorism.

Torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment must stop, and those responsible for authorizing and implementing it must be held accountable...............

An attack on the UK came third after a congratulatory piece about Egypt for its supreme court having outlawed 'virginity' tests. People and governments that support a whole raft of so-called human rights organisations should realise that the main focus is not on investigating tyrannies, but on democratic countries that are easy to target, easy to investigate, and in line with the anti-western feelings that pervades these organisations.

Mufti reveals that another genocide of jews is the real aim of palestinians

Now we know why despite promises to the contrary at Oslo, the Fatah branch of the terrorist PLO organisation never anulled its founding charter's call for the destruction of Israel.
FATEH's constitution, Article 19:
Armed struggle is a strategy and not a tactic, and the Palestinian Arab People's armed revolution is a decisive factor in the liberation fight and in uprooting the Zionist existence, and this struggle will not cease unless the Zionist state is demolished and Palestine is completely liberated.”
And the first sentence in Fatah's constitution declares that it is part of the wider arab world, in line with the earlier declaration by the first Palestine arab National Congress in 1920 that demanded Palestine be annexed by a Greater Syria.
Article (1) Palestine is part of the Arab World, and the Palestinian people are part of the Arab Nation, and their struggle is part of its struggle.

Why do I say the palestinians never gave up on destroying Israel? Because palestinians and their leaders never cease to make known in one way or another, either by word or by terrorist deed, their wish to destroy Israel and kill its jewish inhabitants. President Abbas can't espouse his sympathies for this anihilationist dream, for another holocaust, so he and his minions honour those who have killed jews in the past. Abbas has very recently visited some notorious murderers, such as Samir Kuntar who bashed a little girl's head on a rock after killing her father in front of the doomed toddler. Kuntar got a hug and a private interview. Amna Muna also received a private interview and words of praise from Abbas. She lured a 16year old boy to a romantic liaison, to his death. And lets not forget the ungrateful Wafa al-Bis who after israeli burns surgeons saved her life, went back as a suicide bomber to try and kill those very same doctors! The reporter seems unaware of Bis's earlier hospitalisation but what is even more chilling is the mother's attitude to her daughter killing herself and doctors innocent of anything other than having successfully saved the life of her daughter:

"Bis’s mother Salma said she had no idea of her daughter’s mission — but added that she felt she had no choice but to encourage her in her chosen course of life. “This is Jihad, it is an honourable thing and I am proud of her,” she said."

In the latest 47th anniversary of the founding of Fatah, responsible for thousands of dead and injured israelis, including the Munich massacre, of which pal the organiser called for the murder of jews, and was followed by the Mufti, the top religious official for muslims. Rather than condemn the mufti, this this genocidal muslim spiritual leader for millions of palestinians, the Palestinian Authority broadcast his call to kill jews on its television channel.

For some reason this video has been removed by Youtube for supposedly having 'violated' its t's & c's. Most likely this video was embarassing for Israel's enemies. Palestinian leaders like to show a moderate face to an english speaking audience, expressing their real intentions only in the arabic language. Journalists almost never seek to know what is really being said in arabic. Even when it is handed to them on a plate they will not publish genocidal statements from arab leaders.

 Palestinian Media Watch have put the video of  the genocidal mufti on their site. No doubt apologists for palestinians and islamists will come out with the usual, "what they really meant was....." Israeli leaders such as the seemingly ever gullible Shimon Peres and defence minister Barak should watch this clip before they next sit down to talk peace with terrorists from the Palestinian Authority.

 In a surprising departure from the norm an islamic scholar Adnan Oktar has condemned the mufti's genocidal comments. Don't hold your breath for a palestinian leader to do the same.

Palestinian genocidal comments are not hard to find even if now and again you tube deletes some. In this interview broadcast on PA TV a woman looks back nostalgically on the massacre of the jews of Hebron in 1929.



Past massacres of jews that are even now joyously celebrated as palestinians fantasise about what they would like to do to jews in the present, as the Mufti and others tell their fellow arabs living in Judea and Samaria all too frequently.

Israel allowed thousands of PLO terrorists to be allowed into the country under the Oslo accords and then allowed them to be trained by US soliders and equipped with arms. In 2002 Israel paid for this with over a thousand dead and many thousands injured in shooting attacks and suicide bombings.

Whilst on this subject, just today the second terrorist guilty of the horrific slaughter of five members of the Fogel family  (two adults and three children killed in their beds with knives) were sentenced today to life terms in prison. Israel is humane and does not execute prisoners guilty of even the most horrific crimes. But where is the deterrence if such terrorists know they might be free in a few years in exchange for an israeli soldier captured or kidnapped? It's with a heavy heart that I say this, but Israel must seriously think about bringing back the death penalty for the most serious crimes that have taken lives. These murderers of children have expressed no remorse. They never do, and they are heroes in their society. Let them become martyrs never able to repeat their acts. Let them have time to contemplate their actions before they mount the scaffold. Some who follow them would by this surely be given pause for thought before planting bombs on buses.

Whilst this terrorist was being sentenced today, two palestinians attempted to gain entry to the court in order to shoot it up and explode bombs, for the second time this week

The lesson from all this hatred and terror is that Israel must never trust palestinians again. Israel must never give territory away again. To give away strategic territory invites attack, and we know that Israel's enemies will attack any time they feel they have the upper hand or even just the opportunity.

With the islamic winter sending its chill around the arab world do we really need to get ready to welcome the Caliphate?

The average man in the street is sick of those who are so sensitive to every imagined or real slight, who can not see the funny side of anything that might in any tangential way affect their bigoted beliefs, or that professes to be a caricture of a beloved 'prophet'.

The west is sick of hearing of 'days of rage' and suicide bombings and of so-called western imperialists and colonisers from arabs who controlled the african slave trade and in some countries such as Saudi Arabia still indulge in slavery. It is tiring to be harangued as imperialists and aggressors by those who no sooner than their religion was born sent armies to pillage,  convert and kill in the name of a 'prophet' and his caliphate.

It's time for the arab and islamic world to grow up, to stop trying to blame the west the USA and Israel for its ills, to stop wishing for an islamic caliphate. Only then will the islamic world be ready to join modern civilisation. The problem is that outside of europe the islamic world doesn't seem to want any part of modernity unless it is regarding the tools of waging war or of internal repression of an educated class of citizens not always grateful for being forced to grow beards or wear veils.

Of course every opportunity that the muslim/arab peasant gets, he votes for the most extreme versions of islam to represent him, and this is why democracy in the arab world is turning into a nightmare, one even now encouraged by western governments and of course president Barak Obama. Billions of US dollars in aid will continue to flow to Egypt no matter what the salafists and Muslim Brotherhood get up to.

The silver lining in all this is that the more the arab world regresses into primitive chauvinistic and anti-western and anti-semitic beliefs, the less likely it will ever be able to carry out its malign intentions of forcing a caliphate on the west through force of arms.

This islamic bigot is besides himself with joy having reassured himself that there won't even be any need go to war. The low birthrate in western countries will mean that islamic will and the caliphate will triumph not by force of arms but by the birthrate of muslims.


The only problem is that a large proportion of muslims in the west are moderate and want the material benefits that a modern western life provides. As each new generation arises there will be less and less muslims who look forward to bringing up large families, that aspire to the founding of a caliphate and the implementation of shariah law. They will just want a decent lifestyle like everyone else.

Being 'pro' Israeli does not mean lambasting it at every opportunity


The Elder of Ziyon who often gives excellent analysis of current events has published a couple of thoughtful posts as to what it means to be 'pro' Israel. Those who use this term about themselves whilst serving up criticism of Israel don't seem to belong in that category.

Howard Jacobson the writer and critic has dealt with this theme a number of times, using the analogy of writing a critique of a book. When doing so he will not just inform the reader about the bits he disliked, but will also say what he liked about a book. Someone who just denigrates Israel without being able to contemplate anything positive about it is not a critic but a demoniser.

Although you mustn't allow yourself toever call a demoniser an anti-semite, they all to often are just that.
Jacobson takes an anti-semitic playwriter Caryl Churchill to task over her play updating the blood liber for a new era in her ‘Seven Jewish Children’:


Thus lie follows lie, omission follows omission, until, in the tenth and final minute, we have a stage populated by monsters who kill babies by design – “Tell her we killed the babies by mistake,” one says, meaning don’t tell her what we really did – who laugh when they see a dead Palestinian policeman (“Tell her they’re animals … Tell her I wouldn’t care if we wiped them out”), who consider themselves the “chosen people”, and who admit to feeling happy when they see Palestinian “children covered in blood”.


At least Churchill doesn't portray herself as being somehow 'pro' Israel. Although it would be an uphill task considering she has about as much credibility as Dr Joseph Goebels. Similarly any 'pro'-Israel critic who has nothing good to say about Israel is merely attempting to use a false flag in order to better to demonise Israel. The line of thinking of this type of person runs along the lines of “if even someone who is pro-Israel/a jews could say XYZ about Israel, then Israel must be really bad. Arab accusations must be right if even 'pro' israelis/jews confirm their stories.”

In the past I was prepared to listen to the evidence, even give credence to arab claims against harsh treatment at the hands of Israel, but nowadays my default mode is first that "they are lying, Pallywood, invented.....". Only after those thoughts do I even begin to consider the claim, such as just where they are lying, whether there is any kernel of truth in the story at all. Normally, once i've checked the allegation out it turns out to be yet another interminable arab gripe, part of the old hatred of the jew and an inability to emerge from it. It is bound up with arab and islamic culture, of blood feuds, revenge, aspirations of the great myth of a muslim/arab 'nation', of honour and its associated killings, and shame and............
The latest attack on jews living in Judea and Samaria is to accuse them of burning mosques. And again gullible journalists even Israelis swallowed the story hook, line and sinker. It is so easy to demonise jewish settlers.

But in this recent case it is becoming increasingly evident that settlers were not involved in the zangaria mosque burning. A claim written on the burnt Zangaria mosque that it was a 'price tag' attack was malicious.

Europe's dying and the Caliphate's on the way

According to Egyptian Cleric Ali Abu Al-Hasan in only a few decades "Europe Will Become a Single Islamic State".

He's probably over egging the pudding because people are waking up to the islamist menace in Europe. They are waking up to the islamist wahabite schools that take state money and preach hatred of jews, christians and western civilisation.

Europe's population is indeed reducing but the moderating influence of western civilisation means that many muslims prefer to drop the hate filled and primitive islamist cultures they came from. They are thus not much of an asset to the islamist cause. Just the opposite. In any case, with civilisation and prosperity the birth rate of moderate muslims tends to align itself with the wider population.



But just in case islamist fanatics like our cleric Ali Hasan have any illusions, they should know that western europe has enacted immigration laws that effectively prevent future waves of primitive islamists reaching their countries in any great numbers.

Israel for example has just enacted a law that will prevent 'palestinians' any longer swamping Israel by way of Israel's generous family unification rules. Arabs in Judea and Samaria (WB) could immigrate to Israel if they married an israeli arab. In recent years 130,000 arabs from Judea and Samaria took advantage of this. Israel paid for this with a number of terrorist attacks launched by arabs who had taken advantage of the rules.

BBC Whodunnit - A BBC article designed to suppress the truth about just who burned down the Napoleon Bonaparte institute

The following article appeared on the BBC website as 'analysis'. To anyone with half a grasp on reality it is undisputed that those responsible for burning down the Napoleon Institute in Cairo were islamists filled with hatred and a destructive wish for all that western civilisation stands for, even extending towards priceless and irreplacable maps and books. 

Despite this, the BBC without saying it in so many words identifies the culprits as coming from Tahrir square, thereby allowing the reader to identify in his mind the democracy protesters, to picture in their minds the young forward looking and western oriented facebook users, i.e. exactly the sort of people who didn't do it.

Saving Egypt's precious fire-bombed books
By Sarah Hashash
Cairo


Restorers laid burnt and damaged books out to dry in the Institute's garden
Thousands of historical documents could be lost following a fire at the Institute of Egypt - which began during clashes in Tahrir Square last month - but an army of restoration workers is working day and night to save the country's written history.

The plain-clothes security guard in the dingy ground-floor office at Egypt's National Archives eyes my camera suspiciously.

On the desk in front of him lies a heavy black revolver. After a brief dispute with my guide and phone calls to his seniors, he reluctantly lets me in.

I am led into an adjoining room where, knee-deep in stacks of newspapers, men and women wearing face masks, rubber gloves and white lab coats are hard at work.


It looks like a cross between a hospital operating theatre and a newspaper printing plant. The smell of singed paper hangs in the air.

From this small room, a vast rescue operation is being mounted to save the ancient books and manuscripts, which were damaged after the country's oldest research institute - the Institut d'Egypte - was firebombed during clashes between demonstrators and the army in central Cairo in December.

Founded by Napoleon Bonaparte in 1798, during the French expedition to Egypt, the institute is one of the oldest academies of arts and sciences outside Europe.

“Some of the books were still smouldering when we opened them - we had to pour water on them to put out the flames”




Indeed it was Napoleon who led the efforts to compile the institute's most prominent work, Le Description d'Egypte, a 23-volume tome dating back to 1809. Describing Egyptian civilisation, nature and contemporary life it was compiled by more than 150 French scholars.

A first edition of the work has been partly damaged in the fire.

The institute held more than 200,000 rare reference books and bound manuscripts dating back to the 1500s, in five languages: Arabic, French, English, German and Russian.

Many are from the 19th Century, the era of the great Victorian explorers of Africa.

Among its collections were handwritten letters, travelogues and tens of thousands of maps, including a 1752 atlas of Upper and Lower Egypt and a German atlas of Egypt and Ethiopia dating back to 1842.
'Tiny bits of history'

Irina Bokova, Unesco's director general, called the fire an "irreversible loss to Egypt and to the world".

The conservation workers at the National Archives wrap copies of books, drenched as the fire was hosed down, in reams of newspaper to soak the moisture from their pages.

Restorers work long hours to try to save books and documents

The packages, like square-shaped bundles of fish and chips, are then sealed in a vacuum pack.

The nearby corridor is lined with heaps of these plastic parcels. Each needs to be opened, checked and repackaged every three days - a painstaking process that will take several weeks, so workers are staying late into the night to finish the job.


Mountains of blackened books and charred paper fill the room.

Everywhere fragments of paper litter the floor - tiny bits of history beyond salvation.

I tiptoe across the room gingerly, all too aware that I am treading on scraps of paper hundreds of years old. It is a sad feeling, like walking over somebody's grave.

In the corner, a worker is layering pages of a large manuscript with sheets of plain paper. The edges of the pages crumble as he lifts them, the fragments settle on the floor where they will gradually disintegrate into dust.

It feels like the un-making of history.
'This is our heritage'

Mona Mohammed Abdo, the head of book restoration at the National Archives, a woman in a blue-green headscarf with twinkling eyes, takes a break from her work to show me around.

"It's a catastrophe," she says. "It's the first time I've worked on anything of this scale. Thirty truckloads of books arrived in the first few days.

"We had nowhere to put them so, at the beginning, to stop them going mouldy, we were forced to resort to natural drying techniques.

"We spread pages across the ground in the garden and on the rooftops of the building to dry. Some of the books were still smouldering when we opened them," she says. "We had to pour water on them to put out the flames."

The Institute held more than 200,000 precious books and documents

Many of the workers helping are not specialists but ordinary Egyptians who have volunteered.

Twenty-four-year-old Bushra, a pharmacist wearing a pale pink headscarf and full-length pastel blue dress, looks up from the papers she is wrapping and smiles at me.

"This is our heritage, our culture. It's really important. I had to come and help. They said it was going to rain soon so we had to move fast to get things out of the archive office's garden."

Just down the road, several weeks on, books still lie beneath the rubble of the institute.

It is right by Tahrir square, where demonstrators opposed to the military council that has ruled Egypt since President Hosni Mubarak's fall, are still camped out making their voices heard.

The continuing protests have hampered rescue efforts and the building itself is said to be in danger of collapsing. The top floor has already caved in.

Many of its books have been lost for ever.

Has the politically correct west gone so far in bending over backwards to islamists that the blame for islamist destruction must be pinned on the relatively small number of western oriented youth?


Well yes, Israel gets this truth bending treatment from Reuters, AP and the BBC all the time. 

 Remember this picture?




This 'iconic' photograph supposedly portraying a dastardly evil settler running down poor defenceless children made headlines throughout the world.

As the Elder of Ziyon explains,  rather than trying to hit the children, the settler was trying to avoid the children who were playing their part in a carefully planned ambush. The children were throwing stones and running towards the car. The photographers were strangely well placed to take the photos and none of the press photos showed the smashed back window of the car.

Of course it was blood libel as are many others emanating out of  'pallywood' aided and abetted by unscrupulous journalists and photographers, willing to peddle any lie if it besmirches Israel.

Imam of Jerusalem mosque not prosecuted for calling for assassination of Obama

When the US killed Osama Bin Laden last year, most people in the west believed that his passing was long overdue. It was more than a little surprising that rather than being holed up in a cave somewhere in Waziristan he'd been hiding out in comfort in a luxury mansion in a sensitive area,  next to a large Pakistani army base for years. No doubt bin Laden was under the protection of Pakistan's secret service and most probably also the military governor. Bin Laden's accomplice and bodyguard was quickly released.


Not everyone was celebrating. Throughout the arab and islamic world there was mourning, condemnation and calls for revenge. And there are of course denials that Bin Laden had anything to do with 9/11, even though he claimed responsibility for the Twin Towers massacre he was somehow not responsible. Why do islamists even try to deny a massacre of which they rejoiced?



Well then if you are an extreme muslim it's possible to use the bombing as yet another example of how the west 'tries' to besmirch and attack islam. If you're paranoid and eaten up with hatred of jews and western civilisation you'll believe anything.

"The group's Jakarta branch chairman, Habib Salim Alatas, said there was no proof that bin Laden was the mastermind of the September 11, 2001 attacks on New York and Washington that killed around 3,000 people.
"This is a question that must be answered by countries such as Australia, Britain, the United States and the Jews," he told AFP, adding that bin Laden was a "sincere fighter who defended Islam".
 The palestinians, that darling of the west which celebrated Saddam Hussein's invasion of Kuwait, who danced in the streets and distributed sweets to celebrate the 9/11 massacre of innocent americans, mourned the killing of Bin Laden.

Hamas prime minister Haniyeh of Gaza condemned the killing of Bin Laden. Well that's not really much of a surprise as he is after all the leader of a terrorist entity that glorifies jihad and 'martydom'.


"The Palestinian Islamist group Hamas has praised Osama bin Laden as an "Arab holy warrior" and condemned his killing by American forces in Pakistan."


The  Imam of the Al-Aqsa Mosque was burning with hatred for the USA and called for president Obama's assassination:


 "The western dogs are rejoicing after killing one of our Islamic lions. From Al-Aqsa Mosque, where the future caliphate will originate with the help of God, we say to them – the dogs will not rejoice too much for killing the lions. The dogs will remain dogs and the lion, even if he is dead, will remain a lion."



The imam then verbally attacked US President Barack Obama saying: "You personally instructed to kill Muslims. You should know that soon you'll hang together with Bush Junior."

"We are a nation of billions, a good nation. We'll teach you about politics and military ways very soon, with god's help," he vowed."

These are the people that Israel is supposed to sit down and make peace with, to give them the strategic hills just 10 kms from Tel-Aviv. Israel should understand the depth of the hatred of these fanatics for the west, for jews, christians and Israel and keep building its towns and villages in Judea and Samaria.
Land is strength, and that's why the fake 'palestinian' nationalists wish to take land away from Israel.

Israel gave the Sinai away to Egypt for peace and now Egypt is hotting up the border allowing terrorists to infiltrate Israel whilst egyptian troops look the other way.

Not only the Moslem Brotherhood said it would tear up the peace treaty with Israel. A number of secular parties also called for this whilst demonstrating against Israel. No wonder they lost the elections so badly. The only electioneering they could organise were demonstrations in Tahrir square and at the israeli embassy (It resulted in a mob attack and israeli diplomatic staff leaving just in time to escape being lynched).

Rather than prosecute this imam for calling for Obama's assassination Israel has again buckled and closed the case against him. Just as Israel will not act against the fascist and jew hating Islamic Northern League headed by anti-semite Raed Saleh, it will not enforce the law in east Jerusalem for fear of international repercussions. Even when israelis have been attacked the police would not intervene for fear of sparking further riots.

What is more interesting is that Israel when it retook Jerusalem in 1967 after being attacked by Jordan, it allowed the Waqf to keep control of the Temple Mount. The Waqf is controlled by Jordan. The imam is paid by Jordan. The most 'moderate' state in the middle east pays for a rabid US hating imam to be in charge of one of the most important mosques in the world.

But there again, Jordan has just allowed Hamas to establish its headquarters in Amman. Jordan’s prime minister Awn Khasawneh has close ties with the Muslim Brotherhood.

Obama might not even understand that for all his outreach to the muslim world he's hated as much as any other american president in that region. Once Obama is removed, hopefully by democratic rather than the imam's favourite means, the USA is going to have a lot of work on its hands to reestablish its credibility in the middle east.

Extremist muslim violence in Uganda

Many, possibly a majority of muslims are not violent. But those that are take their justification and their example from the Koran itself. Anyone who has actually read the koran will know that it is a deeply troubling document, because of its violent teachings that are interspersed throughout its pages. Violent speech is never more than a few pages away.

For example when muslims refer to jews as  'apes and pigs'  they are only quoting a hadith.

When  Hamas in its charter  refers to a rock telling muslims that jews are hiding behind it and that muslims should come and kill the jews, Hamas is getting it from a hadith:

"The Day of Resurrection will not arrive until the Moslems make war against the Jews and kill them, and until a Jew hiding behind a rock and tree, and the rock and tree will say: 'Oh Moslem, oh servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him!'" (Sahih Bukhari 004.52.176)

"Believers, take neither Jews nor Christians for your friends." (Surah 5:51)

"The Christians say: The Christ is the son of Allah; these are the words of their mouths; they imitate the saying of those who disbelieved before; may Allah destroy them." (Sura 9:30)

"Prophet make war on the unbelievers and the hypocrites and deal rigorously with them. Hell shall be their home." (Surah 9:73)


Quran (3:56) - "As to those who reject faith, I will  punish them with terrible agony  in this world and in the Hereafter, nor will they have anyone to help."

A Ugandan evangelical pastor Umar Mulinde was attacked on Christmas Eve  by muslims with acid who were shouting 'allahu akbar'. The pastor's crime apart from having converted from christianity to islam was that he had started supporting Israel.

Mulinde has suffered severe burns and eye damage. He was brought to Sheba Medical Center in Israel where surgeons are treating him free.


This is not the first time that Israeli surgeons have treated Ugandans as this picture from a Ugandan daily shows:




One must not paint all muslims as being violent but on the other hand it would be nice to hear more about muslim clerics condemning violence.

As far as I can see condemnations of wanton violence are the exception whilst extremist clerics preaching hatred and violence abound.



Hate mongering islamic preachers give violent muslims all the justification they need to go on their violent rampages.

The Caliphate's on the way according to Mohammed Badi the 'Supreme Guide' of the Muslim Brotherhood

The english version of Al Masry al Youm has quoted the Moslem Brotherhood's leader:

"The project begins with the creation of a sound government and ends with the establishment of a just Islamic caliphate", said Mohamed Badie, the Supreme Guide of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt on Thursday, in his weekly message on the group’s official website.



I wonder how many western media outlets fall over themselves to report this news from the 'moderate' Muslim Brotherhood.

Surely this news is as important as Israel building an apartment or two?

This news isn't really so surprising though. The Hamas Moslem Brotherhood offshoot in Gaza hasn't made much of a secret of its ultimate intentions, whether to destroy Israel or to set up the Caliphate.

The BBC reporter Jeremy Bowen interviewed co-founder of Hamas and its official spokesman Mahmoud Zahar:



"But Dr Zahar didn't want to talk much about current events. Instead he went to a globe on a table nearby, and showed me how one day an Islamic empire would stretch from Nigeria to Indonesia."

'Moderate' president Abbas of the Palestinian Authority

This man falls over himself to show his extremist credentials, but western media is determined to paint this man who wrote his Phd thesis that denied the Holocaust, who was in charge of financing the Munich Olympic terrorists and who never stops honouring murderers of innocent israelis, killed in all manner of fiendish ways.

Abbas only recently went to Lebanon and met with Samir Kuntar who killed a 4 year old girl's father in front of her. Kuntar then killed Einat Haran by bashing her head on a rock. As if this wasn't enough, Abbas recently hugged Amna Muna who jeered whilst a 16 year old boy Ofir Rahum who she had enticed romantically was being slowly tortured to death. She received the palestinian's highest 'al Quds' award.

And this Abbas who is in part responsible for the continuing ethnic cleansing of christians from territories under palestinian control, is lauded by the catholic heirarchy that never ceases to condemn Israel. As I've already pointed out, whilst the christian community is thriving in Israel, nowhere in the arab world is this the case. 100,000 copts have been ethnically cleansed from Egypt just this year, a million from Iraq in the last 10 years. And Bethlehem has gone from being 70% christian is now 5-10% christian.

This as much as anything shows the hatred that arabs have for jews. Whilst celebrating those who carry out grisly murders of jews, they do it in the knowledge that western media will ignore this. All that interests the west is when jews build houses in their ancient homelands of Judea and Samaria. When arabs say they want to kill jews, when they glorify those who kill jews, when they say they will do it again, western media is silent as with the Hamas prime minister the other day who was met in Tunisia by a crowd chanting "slaughter the jews".

Islamist activists welcoming Hamas Haniya were heard chanting slogans like: "Kill the Jews, it is our duty", along with anti-Israeli and pro-Palestinian messages.


Another Tack: Good manners and high morals
By SARAH HONIG


One would expect that Abbas, feted worldwide as the prince of moderation, would at least wash his hands of murderous Muna.

There sat Palestinian Authority chieftain Mahmoud Abbas in the front pew of the Church of the Nativity, reverently observing the Christmas midnight mass. He appeared so meek – the model of admirable moderation, good manners and high morals.

TV anchors and scribblers worldwide fell for his consummate act and expressed solemn appreciation for the affectation. Critical appraisal was conspicuously absent.

Abbas – the on-and-off and now on-again political ally of Hamas and Islamic Jihad – took great pains to quasi-usurp Christmas from Christendom and impart the impression that Christmas is intrinsically also a Muslim celebration, “a Palestinian holiday” from which bogeymen Jews alone deserve exclusion.

Significantly this aroused no protests – the subjugation of Christians in Muslim societies, and foremost in Bethlehem, notwithstanding.

This supposed Christian-Muslim front comprised the gist of the homily delivered by the Mideast’s most senior Roman Catholic, Patriarch of Jerusalem Fuad al-Tuwal, a Jordanian Arab.

He effusively welcomed Abbas, congratulating him for “his unfaltering efforts to achieve a just peace in the Middle East, a main thrust of which is the creation of a Palestinian State.” The patriarch commiserated with the Palestinians, who “recently turned to the UN in the hope of finding a just solution.”

According to his monologue, “they were asked to reengage in a failed peace process,” which “has left a bitter taste of broken promises and of mistrust.”

And guess who embittered the pitiable Palestinians? Guess who cast a dark, sinister shadow over their Muslim Christmas? Those Jews, of course. Who else?

LIVING UP to the ecclesiastical hype, Abbas wished the worshipers “love and peace” and, presumably in that spirit, proceeded to slam Jewish settlements as “immoral and indefensible.”

“I wish for the Palestinian people that next year will be the year that peace will be implemented in the occupied Palestinian lands,” he said. “We, my brothers, believe in peace and are working to implement peace.”

Had any further elucidation been needed about his concept of peace, Abbas furnished it pre-Christmas when traveling to Ankara to shower affection upon the convicted terrorists deported to Turkey as part of the Gilad Schalit swap.

Outstanding among them was Amna Muna – tangible proof that evil can come in attractive guises. Abbas hugged her warmly and sat down for a chummy chat, not to mention his hefty financial reward.

Muna was actually supposed to be released into Gaza, but refused, citing her secularism as problematic in the Hamas fiefdom. In actual fact, though, she feared retribution.

This insolently unrepentant and most aggressive despot of the women’s prison security wing tortured noncompliant fellow inmates by, among other means, pouring boiling oil and wax on them.

Turkey was understandably her preferred destination. She now plies the school-lecture circuit there, vowing to return to active “combat against the Zionists” and exhorting pupils to become shahids (martyrs).

Muna – for those who forgot – is the fetching Fatah operative who via Internet contact lured 16-year-old Ofir Rahum to a cruel death on January 17, 2001. In a way, her atrocity is even more gruesome than the more common forms of Arab-inspired carnage. She might not have claimed as many lives as some of her compatriots, but what she did was spine-chillingly up-front and personal.

She schemed to get her hands on a Jewish kid, chose her victim with coldblooded deliberation, falsely befriended him and lured him in a premeditated hunting expedition that began long before 20 AK-47 bullets riddled Ofir’s young body.

The homicide was meticulously and maliciously plotted and executed painstakingly over months, in scrupulously calculated phases, to wrest an unsuspecting boy from his protective environment and trick him into a rendezvous with a hail of bullets.

Ofir yearned to make love not war. He embodied the shared Israeli dream of peace and bliss. With stars in his eyes, he was enticed. He wanted to believe the pretty decoy who flirted with him, the sly impostor who posed as “Sally.”

The striking seductress arranged to meet the smitten schoolboy. He traveled from Ashkelon to Jerusalem; she picked him up at the bus stop and drove him away. Eventually her accomplices shot his kneecaps and she, as per her own crowing account, stood there, taunting him and cackling mirthfully as he screamed in pain before being put to death. She still often derisively mimics his last cries.

ONE WOULD expect that Abbas, feted abroad as the prince of moderation, would at least wash his hands of murderous Muna and condemn her unequivocally. Instead, this supposed man of peace has made Muna his Ramallah regime’s poster-child – the object of reverence and compassion, and a model for emulation.

That speaks volumes, because the lionized icon’s underlying moral code inevitably characterizes the collective that sponsors and supports her.

The Turkish get-together wasn’t Abbas’s first public embrace for Muna. It wasn’t inadvertent, nor was it an isolated, inconsequential political gesture. It was preceded by accolades aplenty.

In 2008, for instance, Abbas handpicked five female recipients for the PLO’s highest medal of heroism – the Quds Mark of Honor. All the women he named were then behind Israeli bars.

This was touted as “a humanitarian gesture,” geared to highlight their “sacrifice and suffering as Israel’s captives, to raise their morale and pay tribute to them.”

The five included Ahlam Tamimi, pivotal in the August 9, 2001, atrocity at Jerusalem’s Sbarro Pizzeria. She escorted the suicide bomber to the eatery where he killed 15 persons, including seven children and five members of a single family. Muna, too, starred among Abbas’s designated heroines.

Predictably the international community made no fuss about Abbas’s choices.

Neither did Israel’s own left wing.

Apparently, when chronic peaceniks have nobody to appoint as their interlocutor, they pretend that the hypothetical lesser evil is humanity’s great hope for the greater good.

Yet by paying lavish homage to child-slayers, Abbas endorses terror and escalates Palestinian psychological warfare, which – in order to manipulatively tug at the heartstrings of progressive do-gooders – camouflages mass-murderers as prisoners of conscience, persecuted altruists and vindictively incarcerated political philosophers.

Abbas cunningly postures as Israel’s hapless victim, as a saint on the side of the angels, indeed as a victim of terrorism rather than its devious promoter.

His heart is artlessly in the right place.

He seeks to do the right thing – which he would sincerely do, were it not for those obstructionist Israelis.

Doesn’t Abbas, after all, respectfully promise on every occasion to quell incitement within his latifundia? Seemingly in the enlightened vanguard of the global good-guy brigade, Abbas convinces willingly gullible saps of what they’re anyway predisposed to imbibe. The watching world voluntarily laps up his fabrications and encouragingly promotes the PA figurehead’s deception.

However, the inescapable subtext of glorifying Muna is that her crime is Abbas’s true ideal – his prescription for all Israelis. In a better world, this truth wouldn’t be eclipsed by the sanctimonious chatter of the charming charlatan, seemingly spellbound by Christmas in the Church of the Nativity.

Muna is the benchmark of popular Palestinian intentions toward all Israelis.

That’s why Abbas acclaims her malevolence instead of denouncing it, instead of beating his own breast for sanctioning and commissioning her bloodlust.

Settlements and settlers and 'occupied palestinian land'

It's time to start thinking about terminologies. Jews living in their ancient homelands, are living in the lands of Judea and Samaria. They should not be described as living in an area with the foreign and alien name of 'West Bank'.

Judea and Samaria was universally known as such until western media agencies decided to change the terminology. Call me petty, but we have to understand just why those with an anti-Israel agenda originally worked to change the name the areas were for thousands of years known by. 'Judea and Samaria' was known to christians and jews throughout the world until AP, BBC and Reuters etc got on the job.

The 'Elder of Ziyon' explains how an invented term was by way of media agencies substituted for the authentic terminology. Henceforth anyone using the terms of Judea and Samaria could be labelled 'right wing', as interlopers on arab land (in the 1950's arabs living there hadn't decided that they would now like to be known as ancient and venerable 'palestinians' yet. They still allied themselves with Jordan).

Language is potent. It is used to divest the people indigenous to the Land of Israel, the jews, of their rights. If the West Bank exists then the link with Israel is broken. It is surely under these terms more linked with the 'east' bank, i.e. Jordan.

Although the faux nationalism of so-called 'palestinians' who have flip flopped over their national identity since 1920, might find some conflict in identifying with Jordan at the moment. After all at this moment in time the struggle is to divest the jews of their land, not overthrow a petty dictatorship, albeit one of the most benign in the arab world.

It is surely time for people living in Judea and Samaria not to refer to themselves as 'settlers', living in 'settlements'. The feeling of these terms is of newcomers, of colonists, of people with no claim to the land other than force of arms.
Which of course is rubbish to anyone with a passing knowledge of the jewish people and not eaten up with hate for it.

The jewish communities in Judea and Samaria are villages, towns, and even a city of Ariel. There are no settlers. Those living in Judea and Samaria are inhabitants / villagers / residents of towns.

It's time to reject politically charged terminology that aims to divest jews of their rights as the indigenous inhabitants of their ancient homelands.

What do you do if a kid has a cartoon of Muhammad posted on his Facebook page?

Why you burn down his house and try to kill him and his family.

This is the Egypt that Obama has sacrificed western ally egyptian president Mubarak for.

The poor kid said he hadn't even posted the cartoon himself, which I believe as no christian in the arab world would be that stupid. Even in the west the media are afraid of antagonising islamists in our own countries for fear of violent results. Moderate muslim voices are rarely heard as they too are intimidated.

Arab countries are busy ethnically cleansing themselves of christians just as it did 80 years ago with jews in arab lands. 1 million in Iraq and now 100,000 Copts have fled from Egypt in the last year.

And silence from the established churches, whose hypocritical leaders never fail to attack Israel, the new jewish scapegoat for all the ills of the middle east.

Egypts economy is plunging into the abyss. What is the priority for the Muslim Brotherhood?

Anyone reading this blog knows exactly that the Muslim Brotherhood is about bringing shariah islam to the world, to establish the caliphate. Western governments fall over themselves coming to the aid of the islamists who are portrayed as 'moderate.' In Libya thanks to Obama, Cameron and Sarkozy, the triumverate of fools, we not only have islamists, but Al Qaidah!





The MB is not made up of fools. They are very media aware and for now at least in Egypt do not wish to appear extreme, at least to western eyes (but read below what they are saying in arabic). In Libya the islamists and al Qaidah have been media shy. They work in the shadows subverting and killing. The Vice journalist who took these photos found himself in a tight situation. Without considering the special case of Libya, it's easy to dissapear even in a run of the mill arab dictatorship.



So what does the Muslim Brotherhood do about reneging on the peace treaty with Israel, something it has promised western countries not to do. Why put it to a referendum. Generations of Egyptians taught to hate jews and Israel can be trusted to vote the way the Muslim Brotherhood wishes them to and vote away Egypt's peace with Israel.

Land is security, that is why arabs have umpteen ways of divesting Israel of it. At one time they promised 'peace'. No longer. Arabs and so-called 'palestinians' only promise war if Israel doesn't give in to their ever increasing demands.

Israel, the outpost of western civilisation in a primitive region falling over itself to install western hating islamist regimes must be encouraged to put its own security first, always. Israel's security is the west's security. Israel's security is the security of moderate muslims to whom the Moslem Brotherhood is just as much anathema as to the rest of us jews and christians.


Let's hope Israel is watching, and updating its plans to retake the Sinai Peninsula when the inevitable happens, that arabs once again start beating the war drums. Israel must never again be duped into giving away strategic land for 'peace'. Israel must offer peace in exchange for peace. Nothing more, nothing less.

We in the west must support Israel, that tiny outpost of western civilisation.

The full article published in arabic in Al Masry Al Youm by the deputy leader of the Muslim Brotherhood Dr. Rashad Bayoumi is published below in the sometimes difficult Google translation, and then the arabic. Notice the difference in how the Moslem Brotherhood speak when they talk in arabic. Western journalists almost never try and dig beneath the lies spouted by the mealy mouthed MB in english.

How many times do you hear from western media that the MB wishes to keep the peace with Israel? What is clear is that the Moslem Brotherhood will put the peace treaty with Israel to a referendum, that the Moslem Brotherhood, soon to be the government of Egypt finds itself in no way bound by the Treaty, and that it will take 'legal measures' against it. The referendum is therefore but a fig leaf with the outcome already clear, that the MB will enact legislation to annul the peace treaty. At this stage the Moslem Brotherhood is not talking about war, but that is surely the logical outcome. Israel beware.

Dr. Rashad Bayoumi, deputy leader of the Muslim Brotherhood, told the newspaper «life» of London, published Sunday: «Is the requirement that the government recognize Israel? .. This is not an option at all, whatever the circumstances, we will not recognize Israel at all, they are usurping entity enemy occupied a criminal ».

He stressed that «Brotherhood» «will not recognize the state of Israel under any circumstances», suggesting that the group «had been peace treaty with Israel to a referendum».

Bayoumi stressed that «none of the members of the group will never sit in the future with Israeli» he said, adding: «I will not allow myself to sit down with a criminal .. Israel will not deal with in any way ».

And on a treaty of peace, Bayoumi said: «We will take legal procedures against the peace treaty, is do not oblige me at all, and will show the people his mind».

He explained: «Brotherhood progress respecting international conventions, but we will take legal action against the peace treaty with the Zionist entity .. It is the right of any party to reconsider the treaty, and the Egyptian people did not say where his mind by ».

He added: «peace treaty did not Nbermha and we will take legal action against them respectable, and may offer it to people or the parliament elected in which to express his opinion, that was the kind of prejudice to the freedom and sovereignty of the people».

قال الدكتور رشاد بيومي، نائب المرشد العام لجماعة الإخوان المسلمين، في تصريح لصحيفة «الحياة» اللندنية، نشرته الأحد: «هل شرط الحكم أن نعترف بإسرائيل؟.. هذا ليس واردا أبدا مهما كانت الظروف، ولن نعترف بإسرائيل على الإطلاق، فهي كيان عدو محتل غاصب مجرم».

وأكد أن «الإخوان» «لن تعترف بدولة إسرائيل تحت أي ظرف»، ملمحا إلى أن الجماعة «قد تعرض معاهدة السلام المبرمة مع إسرائيل على استفتاء شعبي».

وشدد بيومي على أن «أيًّا من أعضاء الجماعة لن يجلس أبدا في المستقبل مع إسرائيلي»، مضيفًا: «لن أسمح لنفسي أن أجلس مع مجرم.. ولن نتعامل مع إسرائيل بأي حال».

وعن معاهدة السلام، قال بيومي: «سنتخذ الإجراءات القانونية السليمة تجاه معاهدة السلام، هي لا تلزمني إطلاقاً، وسيبدي الشعب رأيه فيها».

وشرح: «الإخوان مرحليا يحترمون المواثيق الدولية، ولكن سنتخذ الإجراءات القانونية تجاه معاهدة السلام مع الكيان الصهيوني.. فمن حق أي طرف أن يعيد النظر في المعاهدة، والشعب المصري لم يقل رأيه فيها من قبل».

وأضاف: «معاهدة السلام لم نبرمها وسنتخذ الإجراءات القانونية المحترمة تجاهها، ويجوز أن نعرضها على الشعب أو برلمانه المنتخب لإبداء رأيه فيها، إن كان فيها نوع من المساس بحرية الشعب وسيادته».
