Two anti-BDS resolutions are now making the rounds in the House that attempt to legitimize Israel's illegal settlements.
Efforts of the Israel lobby to derail BDS (Boycott, Divest, Sanction) in the United States have been relentless and largely successful. Over the past year, state legislatures in Tennessee, Indiana, Illinois, South Carolina, Massachusetts and New York have enacted laws or passed resolutions to curtail BDS as a means of securing Palestinian rights.
Last June, President Obama signed into law a “fast track” authorization bill for the Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) that cites as a “principal negotiating objective” to discourage “politically motivated actions to boycott, divest from or sanction Israel.”
The Trade Facilitation and Trade Enforcement Act of 2015 (H.R.644), now nearing a final Senate vote, contains similarly harsh anti-BDS language. For example, Section 908 (f)(1) defines BDS as actions intended to penalize or limit relations “with Israel or persons doing business in Israel or in Israeli-controlled territories.” In other words, the bill extends U.S. trade protection not just to Israel, but also to its continued occupation and settlement of the Palestinian Territories. By its language, the bill assumes U.S. recognition of the settlements.
Two anti-BDS resolutions are now making the rounds in the House of Representatives. H. Res. 402 introduced last July by Rep. Ed Royce “calls on the Administration to increase the use of its voice, vote and influence in international organizations…to actively oppose politically motivated acts of boycott, divestment from and sanctions against Israel.”
House Resolution 567 introduced last December by Rep. Nita Lowey of New York, which has already attracted some 18 co-sponsors, attacks the November 2015 decision of the European Union to require products made in Israeli settlements to be labeled as such. In the words of the Resolution, the House “expresses opposition to the European Commission interpretive notice regarding labeling Israeli products and goods manufactured in the West Bank and other areas….” As if to create an illusion of rationality, the bill adds: “as such actions undermine efforts to achieve a negotiated Israeli-Palestinian peace process.” Moreover, the bill ignores the fact that the EU labeling rules are not a form of BDS since they do not prevent any goods from coming into the European Union.
Even if there were a peace process underway, it’s hard to see how BDS would undermine it. Indeed, it was official U.S. sanctions and corporate disinvestment that played a major role in dismantling apartheid in South Africa and in prompting the release of the imprisoned Nelson Mandela. The Comprehensive Anti-Apartheid Act of 1986 amounted to a rejection of President Reagan’s failed “constructive engagement” policy in favor of stiff sanctions and corporate divestment that coalesced into a global movement. The lesson is that BDS works when governments cooperate in it.
The worldwide BDS campaign, now ten years old, simply seeks to secure Palestinian rights through the legitimate exercise of economic and political pressure, as was accomplished successfully in the case of apartheid South Africa.
Surprisingly, H.Res.567 fails to take into account existing U.S. labeling laws from 1995 and 1997 that are similar to those adopted by the E.U. notice. Contrary to the proposed House resolutions, U.S. law requires that goods from Gaza and the West Bank be labeled as such. Why berate the Europeans for trying to do what U.S. law requires us to do?
More insidious is the Resolution’s implicit linking of the West Bank settlements to Israel. To label settlement products as “from Israel” is to portray the settlements as a part of Israel, which they are not (according to both international law and prevailing world opinion).
A Senate bill (S.2474) introduced earlier this month by Senator Tom Cotton and cosponsored by Senators Marco Rubio, Ted Cruz and Corey Gardner, would reverse U.S. labeling policy by allowing goods “produced or originating” in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip to have their country of origin markings include “Israel, Product of Israel and Made in Israel.” Like H.Res.567, the bill portrays the settlements as part of Israel—by implication endorsing the settlements.
Israeli settlement of the West Bank, East Jerusalem and the Golan Heights has been denounced by every U.S. administration since 1967. The settlements have been judged illegal under the Fourth Geneva Convention, by the International Court of Justice and by multiple resolutions of the U.N. Security Council (in particular U.N. Resolutions 446, 452 and 465).
While anti-settlement views have never been the subject of any Congressional Resolution, since 1974 Members of Congress have introduced some 300 Resolutions critical of Palestinian conduct.
It’s time for Congress to recognize the legitimacy of BDS as protected speech under the First Amendment and soundly based on Israel’s gross violations of human rights. Furthermore, the U.S. should reiterate its longstanding anti-settlement policy and back it with a credible readiness to suspend U.S. military aid.
H.Res 567 is ill-informed and unhelpful. It should be rejected. Instead, Congress should pass a resolution that (1) affirms the State Department’s determination that Israeli settlements are an obstacle to peace and a violation of international law, and (2) encourages the President to suspend military aid if Israel maintains and expands its illegal settlements.
AIPAC boot licking congress gets Israeli support for countering BDS. We the American people pay the resulting effect. We pay the price in resources used for the war machine as opposed to things like spending here at home on things like health care and education. Our government should be for the people by the people with liberty and justice for all.
I have the theory that boycotting israel will also take money from AIPAC supporters thus making our government more responsive to America than Israel.
“we the American people”?! I think I am more American than you and likely paying more taxes than you and I stand firmly with Israel. What I don’t understand is why I am still paying $8 Billion dollars for securing Europe, the largest sum of foreign aid to Muslim countries who hate America, and to the PA who are killing their own people and Israelis as well.
So you must be full blooded American indian to be more American than me. I’m just part Cherokee. I’m in the top 5% income for Americans and im retired.
You stand with your family in Israel. Id that inside the 48, or 67 lines or is your family a bunch of squatters?
Israel is not sending europe $8 billion . So your also full of it.
Your over full of it because Israel sucks more American money than any other country on earth but America itself.
Zionist slime go beat your head against the wall that wall of yours might knock some humanity into your baby killing Zionist filth of a mind.
Herr Skinner,
I am sorry than the the German side of your family took over your better senses and drives you to such blind hate and to support terrorism. Before I bein, my condolences on your loss in 1945, I guess the 1000 Reich idea did’t end up being as good as your Fuhrer had promised.
Now to the facts(and yes, those do matter).
1. THE largest portion of US foreign aid goes to Muslim countries that are hostile to the US and that you insist on supporting

http://www.examiner.com/article/two-thirds-of-us-foreign-aid-to-muslim-nations
2. We are paying billions of dollars for hundreds of thousands of troops stationed in Europe who need to protect Europeans for Nazis like yourself starting yet another world war.
http://www.thenation.com/article/ruling-on-julian-assange-sheds-light-on-limitations-of-un-human-rights-powers/
3.unlike the two recipients above, the vast majority of money going to Israel comes back to the US in spending and innovation.
4.The Palestinians use much of the stolen money they get in foreign aid to build luxury malls, buildings and pools, and seem to be doing pretty well for themselves.

5. with Native American sensitivities, I remind you that the Jews were living in Israel thousands of years before the Palestinians even came into the picture.

If you end up getting the world into another world war with your Nazi views, or if you ever need a good psychologist, lawyer, doctor,food, charity, or anything… call the Jews-you know how to find them when you need them.
My countering your BS is not important, the world can see easily what Zionist Israel is. What is important is for Zionist to take a look at there self and see what they truly are. Zionist will not stop embracing crime until Zionist see it as wrong, failure to do that will be the reason for history to repeat. Israel a safe home land for Jews is a lie on two accounts. What Zionist Israel is not a jewish thing but a Zionist thing. Zionist breaking international law being the source of terrorism will result in the world taking action to protect there self from the effect of Zionist terrorism
It has already started. Wont be long until we the American people elect a congress that respects American’s own laws and international agreements we signed like the Geneva convention. Zionist support will turn into Zionist criminal prosecution.
Liberty and justice for all is an American value. Time is not on your side Zionist. Get inside the 67 lines, be thankful for that.
My choice would be to enforce the right of return with equal rights under the law for all.
Thanks for proving my point you dirty Nazi #HatersGonnaHate

Zionist Terrorist Menachem Begin Murdered 100 Arabs
In Cold Blood at Deir Yassin on April 9, 1948
Surprise: The World Tribunal Never Prosecuted Begin
Early in the morning of April 9, 1948, commandos of the Irgun (headed by Menachem Begin) and the Stern Gang attacked Deir Yassin, a village with about 750 Palestinian residents. The village lay outside of the area to be assigned by the United Nations to the Jewish State; it had a peaceful reputation. But it was located on high ground in the corridor between Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, and
according to Plan Dalet, it was to be destroyed and the residents evacuated.
In all over 100 men, women, and children were systematically murdered. Fifty three orphaned children were literally dumped along the wall of the Old City
where they were found by Miss Hind Husseini and brought behind the American Colony Hotel to her home which was to become the Dar El-Tifl El-Arabi
orphanage.

One is an Arab Muslim and the other an Arab Jew. They look like brothers because they indeed the same people. The European Jew has no genetic relations to the Arab Jews -none whatsoever. Use your eyes, use logic, use ordinary common sense!
That childish scrawling doesn’t debunk anything. All it establishes in how mendaciously demented you are. You are in favor of doing and covering up savage invasions of other people. You even defame the noble Tecumseh. You are Schweinhund.
http://www.veteransnewsnow.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/Khazaria1.jpg
So are you saying 1948 was not theft?
I think all land Zionist are on is theft. But ill settle for 67 lines. Justice would be right of return with equal voting rights for all.
You will settle, but will the Palestinians? Will the Arabs? Our resentment is not only against these foreign European Jews but also against the West for solving its age old problem with its own Jews at our expense. Please remember that Zionism was 100% about European Jews and 0% about Arab Jews. Herzl wrote tons of data on European Jews but never even mentioned the Arab Jews. Please also understand that when we look at the faces of these Europeans, what we see is what the Indians, the Egyptians, the Kenyans saw when they were colonized by the British: European foreigners on our land. I am from the region and I could care less if one is a Jew or a Buddhist. I care only that Europe’s ago-old problem was dumped on our heads for us to deal with. The anger and resentment is strong and severe and we will never forget nor forgive.
I think that that is a very helpful answer to those who request partial return.
Another consideration is that such a compromise is impossible with the Zionists, whose fundamental motivation is a pure Jewish state. In a peaceful world Zionism must be annihilated.
My collecton of Zionist quotes
Very nice! A lot of work! Interesting and helpful!
With all the material you have. it seems that you are well supplied for focusing on arming the people in the DISQUS comments with materials to buttress them.
The Zionist con game persists only because that is all a lot of people come in contact with. It is a mendaciously selective filter than needs to be destroyed part by part. You provide good agencies by which people waking up can wake up further.
The problems that the Semites of the Middle East are experienced globally. Here is one interesting relevant article,
http://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2016/02/16/the-supreme-court-has-murdered-the-us-constitution-guest-column-by-john-whitehead/
The manipulators controlling the Zionist attack on the Palestinians are the same attacking us elsewhere. By the insatiable preying of the power elite, we are all forced into class warfare.
@ Helen, your right, i’ll settle is not good enough. I’m not the one enduring direct crimes against humanity. Justice, Real justice would be Zionist war criminals being tried by Palestine, right of return and reparations. I would like to see some members of my congress be tried by the ICC for aiding and abetting. That said I would be very happy to see Israeli war criminals tried at the ICC and 67 lines.
100% wrong
Keep it up. You’re getting more irrational, more anti-Semitic, more
threatening and more criminal as you proceed.
Prior to statehood in 1948 the larger territory was known as the British Mandate of Palestine. The Jewish people, who have been on this land continuously for 3,288 years, were often referred to as the Palestinians from the early 1920’s until statehood in 1948. Here are just two examples that prove this important distinction. The Palestine Post was founded by an American Jew in December 1932 in the Mandate of Palestine and supported the struggle for a Jewish Homeland. In 1950, two years after the State of Israel was declared, the paper was renamed The Jerusalem Post. And what started as the Palestine Symphony Orchestra is known today as the Israel Philharmonic Orchestra.
The Arabs who emigrated to the territory in the late 1800’s and early 1900’s to live and prosper among the Jews never wanted to be recognized as the Palestinians until it became a convenient tool in their opposition to the Jewish Homeland. In 1964 the PLO was formed which finally transformed the mantle of Palestinian from the pre-statehood Jews to the post-statehood Arabs.
Historically there never existed an Arab or Islamic state of Palestine with a capital in Jerusalem. The capital of “Jund Falastin” (“The District of Palestine”) under the Islamic 7th century occupation was the city of Ramle, 30 kilometers to the west of Jerusalem. It is very important that this historical truth be recognized as a basis for peace.
There is no Occupied territory west of the Jordan River. There is Disputed territory as a result of wars thrust upon Israel by jealous Arab neighbors. Today Arabs live within the State of Israel and in Gaza, Judea and Samaria. These Arab population centers are not going away and neither is the State of Israel.
Gaza is already a state-like entity, since Hamas took it over by force from the PLO in June 2007, thus breaking the Palestinian Authority into two separate entities. If Israel is forced to leave Judea and Samaria as part of a peace agreement, it becomes very possible that the more militant Hamas would eventually take over from the current PA/Fatah regime just as they did in Gaza, either by elections or by force. No one can guarantee otherwise.
Due to tribal rifts and local patriotism there will never be a successful unity government among the Palestinian Arab population centers in Judea and Samaria or Gaza. Like the PLO in the past, the PA/Fatah and Hamas do not represent the true ambitions of the majority of peaceful Arabs who just want a better future for their children within a traditional framework and local governance. The failed Two State Solution is rapidly heading to the dustbin of history where it belongs.
Well written — so American democracy has different meanings for different people – what they have Israel, cannot be applied to Palestinians!
In 1922, Congress adopted a Resolution, signed by the President, expressing support for the Jewish National Home in “Palestine”, a territory that included Judea and Samaria and Gaza, today referred to as the “West Bank/Gaza” so all that is being done is confirming that truth.
Here:
“On June 30, 1922, a joint resolution of both Houses of Congress of the United States unanimously endorsed the “Mandate for Palestine,” confirming the irrevocable right of Jews to settle in the area of Palestine—anywhere between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea:
“Favoring the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people.
“Resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled. That the United States of America favors the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people, it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which should prejudice the civil and religious rights of Christian and all other non-Jewish communities in Palestine, and that the holy places and religious buildings and sites in Palestine shall be adequately protected.”
On September 21, 1922, the then President Warren G. Harding signed the joint resolution of approval to establish a Jewish National Home in Palestine.
http://www.mythsandfacts.org/article_view.asp?articleID=100
Yes, Harding did a lot of corrupt, miserable things. What right did he have, any more that Lord Balfour, to grant Semite land to the white European converts to Judaism fraudulently pretending to be Semites?
a) he didn’t grant but recognized the historic right of Jews to their national homeland.
b) if Arabs are Semites, as I presume you think (and I use that word loosely), Jews, those from Judea, are even more Semites.
c) the only white converts to Judaism in Europe were Christians.
d) you are fraudulently pretending to be smart, intelligent and knowledgeable. You are neither.
e) if there is any “Semite” here, you;re the anti-Semite.
I’m sorry, but you are the fraud! The Arabs have been Semites from the beginning of hitory. The white Ashkenazi Europeans have never been Semites. They showed up in Eastern and Central Europe after the fall of Khazar empire severely afflicted with a long array of peculiar genetic diseases that no true Semites are similarly afflicted. They are clearly European, not Semite, by appearance.
YOU are the anti-Semite like all the racist Ashkenazi Zionists assaulting the genuinely Semite people of Palestine.

Genetic Diseases Affecting Ashkenazi Jews
Forward Staff- August 2, 2013
There is a list of diseases that are often screened for in Jewish couples who are planning to have children because of an elevated risk of carrying a recessive mutation. Researchers have identified many more genetic diseases affecting those of Ashkenazi heritage than t hose of Sephardic and Mizrahi descent. Among Sephardic Jews more commonality exists among ethnic subgroups such as Moroccan Jews or Iranian Jews, making universal screening panels for all Sephardic and Mizrahi Jews more difficult.
Not included on this list are some mutations that are not typically screened for before pregnancy, such as those on the BRCA1 and BRCA2 genes.
Bloom’s Syndrome
Bloom’s syndrome is a recessive disorder characterized by growth deficiency, sun sensitivity, immunodeficiency and a predisposition to diabetes and cancer. Genes in people with Bloom’s syndrome are more likely to mutate, causing chromosomes to break. The carrier rate is estimated at 1 in 110, according to the Center for Jewish Genetics, resulting in the disease manifesting itself in about 1 in 48,000 births.
Canavan Disease
Canavan disease, which is carried by 1 in 40 to 1 in 58 Ashkenazi Jews , affects the brain and central nervous system. Patients have a deficiency of the enzyme aspartoacylase, which is necessary for normal brain development. They cannot generate myelin, which insulates nerve cells and allows transmission of nerve impulses.
Cystic Fibrosis
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is a progressive multisystem disorder caused by abnormal function of the CFTR protein, which causes the body to produce thick, sticky mucus in the lungs and digestive system. CF is no more common among Ashkenazi Jews than among other Caucasian s. It is one of the most common genetic disorders among Jews and non-Jews alike. One in 28 is a carrier; 1 in 3,000 has CF.
Dihydrolipoamide dehydrogenase deficiency
This is a type of maple syrup urine disease that presents in early infancy with repeated episodes of vomiting and abdominal pain as well as poor feeding, lethargy, low muscle tone and developmental delay. The cause is a mutation in the DLD gene, which makes a protein needed for enzymes essential to the cells’ energy production. The flaw leads to toxic levels of amino acids in tissu es. Untreated, it can cause seizures, coma and death. Some dietary changes are helpful. One in 96 Ashkenazi Jews is a carrier.
Familial Dysautonomia
Familial dysautonomia (FD, also known as Riley-Day syndrome) is a progressive neurogenetic disorder that affects the sensory and autonomic nervous systems. About 1 in 31 Ashkenazi Jews is a carrier of the FD gene and 1 in 3,700 has the disease. Intelligence is usually normal in affected individuals; however, learning disabilities are common.
Familial Hyperinsulinism
Familial or congenital hyperinsulinism is an autosomal recessive genetic defect occurring in the Ashkenazi Jewish population, among others. About 1 in 66 Ashkenazi Jews is a carrier; 1 in 18,000 has the disease. The disease affects the body’s sulfonylurea receptors in the pancreas, which control the secretion of insulin to regulate glucose levels in the bloodstream. In individuals with the disease, beta cells of the pancreas keep secreting insulin, regardless of blood-sugar levels. This causes dangerously low blood-sugar levels, which can result in seizures, brain damage and de ath.
Fanconi Anemia
Fanconi anemia is a fatal, recessive disorder that causes bone marrow failure and possible birth defects. One in 90 people of Ashkenazi Jewish ancestry carries a Fanconi anemia gene. One in 32,000 has the disease. Many affected children do not reach adulthood.
Gaucher Disease
Gaucher disease (pronounced “go-shay”) is an inherited disorder caused by a defective gene which prevents the body from producing sufficient amounts of an important enzyme, glucocerebrosidase. That enzyme plays a critical role in the complex process the body uses to remove and recycle worn-out cells. The disease course is variable, ranging from no outward symptoms to severe disability and death. Gaucher disease affects all ethnicities. Gaucher disease type 1 is the most mild form of the disease and affects those of Ashkenazi Jewish descent in greater numbers. Approximately 1 in 16 is a carrier and 1 in 855 has Gaucher disease. Among the general population, approximately 1 in 100/200 is a carrier; about 1 in 60,000 has the disease.
Glycogen Storage Disease, Type I
Glycogen is a carbohydrate that serves as one of the primary fuel reserves for the body’s energy needs. Stores of glycogen power the body during times of fasting and exercise. Glycogen storage disease type I (GSD I) is caused by an enzyme deficiency that prevents the body from completely breaking down stored glycogen into glucose, which the body metabolizes. This progressive buildup of glycogen can cause impaired growth, bleeding problems and enlarged liver and kidneys. In Ashkenazi Jews , the carrier rate is 1 in 71 and 1 in 20,000 has the disease.
Joubert Syndrome
There are several types of Joubert syndrome, caused by mutations in different genes. Joubert syndrome 2 is most common in Ashkenazi Jews , and is caused by a mutation in the TMEM216 gene. It is a rare neurological disorder characterized by multiple brain abnormalities, including the absence or underdevelopment of the cerebellar vermis — an area of the brain that controls balance and coordination. The carrier rate is 1 in 92; 1 in 34,000 has the disease.
Maple Syrup Urine Disease
Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is named for the characteristic sweet smell of the urine in affected children. It is caused by genetic mutations that prevent the body from breaking down three specific amino acids in the body. These products then build up to toxic levels, leading to the manifestations of the disease. MSUD is caused by mutations in four different genes. There are several forms of this disease, and the classic severe form is most common in Ashkenazi Jews . Carrier frequency is 1 in 81 while 1 in 50,000 has the disease.
Mucolipidosis IV
ML4 is characterized by the deficiency of a transport protein that plays a crucial role in psychomotor development. One out of 100 Ashkenazi Jews is a carrier, but the disease rate is unclear because many cases may be confused with cerebral palsy or present with only mild symptoms.
Nemaline Myopathy
There are several types of nemaline myopathy, caused by mutations in different genes. It primarily affects skeletal muscles, causing weakness (myopathy) throughout the body that can worsen over time. It is typically most severe in the muscles of the face, neck and limbs. Muscle problems associated with nemaline myopathy are caused by an abnormal buildup of thread-like structures (nemaline bodies) in certain muscle tissue. The carrier rate is 1 in 108; about 1 in 47,000 has the disease.
Niemann-Pick
Niemann-Pick disease includes several subtypes, two of which (types A and B) stem from a deficiency of acid sphingomyelinase, an enzyme that breaks down a fatty substance called sphingomyelin. When the enzyme is deficient, the unprocessed fat accumulates, mainly in the spleen, lymph nodes and brain. About 1 in 100 Ashkenazi Jews is a carrier of Niemann-Pick Type A, which is neuro-degenerative and leads to death by 2 or 3 years of age. One in 40,000 has the disease. Type B is a milder disorder that does not affect the brain but results in complications of the liver, spleen, lungs and bone marrow. Additional variants of this enzyme deficiency exist, and severity depends on how much sphingomyelinase is present in the cells to process the fats.
Spinal Muscular Atrophy
Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) causes degeneration of motor neurons, the nerve cells in an area of the spinal cord known as the anterior horn. When the motor neurons break down, so does the link between the brain and the voluntary muscles — those we control. As the link between the brain, spinal cord and muscles breaks down, the muscles that are used for activities such as crawling, walking, sitting up and moving the head are used less and less and become weaker, or atrophy. About 1 in 41 Ashkenazi Jews is a carrier, which is similar to other Caucasian populations.
Tay-Sachs
Tay-Sachs disease is caused by the congenital absence of a vital enzyme, hexosaminidase-A. Without the enzyme, the body cannot break down one of its fatty substances, which builds up abnormally in the brain and progressively impairs the central nervous system. The gene that causes the infantile form of the disease is present in about 1 in 30 Ashkenazi Jews in America. About 1 in 300 Sephardic Jews and people of non-Jewish descent are also carriers.
Usher Syndrome
Usher syndrome comprises a group of diseases with a distinctive combination of hearing and progressive vision loss. The genes related to Usher syndrome provide instructions for making proteins that play important roles in normal hearing, balance and vision. They function in the development and maintenance of hair cells, which are sensory cells in the inner ear that help transmit sound and motion signals to the brain. In the retina, these genes are also involved in determining the structure and function of light-sensing cells called rods and cones. Most of the mutations responsible for Usher syndrome lead to a loss of hair cells in the inner ear and a gradual loss of rods and cones in the retina. Degeneration of these sensory cells causes hearing loss, balance problems and vision loss. Two specific forms of Usher syndrome are more common in the Ashkenazi Jewish population — Usher syndrome type 1F and Usher syndrome type III, whose carrier rates are 1 in 141 and 1 in 107, respectively. Disease frequency is 1 in 80,000 and 1 in 45,000, respectively.
Walker-Warburg Syndrome
Walker-Warburg syndrome (WWS) is a rare type of congenital muscular dystrophy characterized by brain and eye abnormalities and muscle disease, particularly weakness and atrophy of voluntary muscles. Mutations in different genes lead to different forms of WWS, and the forms vary in regard to muscles involved, ages of onset and severity. Only the carrier frequency is known: 1 in 149.

Listen: Ashkenazi: We look at your distinct European faces, and we see the enemy just like the Kenyans did with the British. You are a goddamned-foreign-settler state. Do you understand that? Look in the mirror!
Dear Helen,
don’t you look in the mirror. you’d probably crack it.
btw, try these three Israeli youths killed by Arabs. what do they look like to your anti-Semitic mind?
I am looking at your picture now and I see a European? And my blood boils, because I see the land thieves of our land, total aliens! You see, you -goddamned European foreigners- stick out as foreigners on our lands. Your head needs to hang low and your voice muted when you speak to me – the indigenous people of the land. If Hitler ….ed you up, go ask Germany to partition its land. Look at the pictures that I am posting of the stampeding Europeans leeches. Anyone of them has a remote chance of being from Palestine? No, they have a better chance of being from the moon!
———
My ‘anti-Semitic mind’? Hilarious! A non-Semitic Jew accusing a genuine Semite of being ‘anti-Semitic’ towards a fake Semite. Why can’t you simply say, ANTI-JEW’?
A fake non-Semite European Jew cannot accuse me – a genuine Semite- of being anti-Semitic? Look in the mirror!
Germany is safe for Jews now and so is Russia.
Why are the foreign Jews lingering on our land?
The excuse for the stampede is no more! So go home!
=====>>> Go home! ====> Russia, Poland, Germany ==>>>
Wow! You just called a Semite an “anti-Semite”, while you are just a presumptuous fraud. You’re a white European convert to Judaism with no Semite blood in you.
Keep it up. You’re getting more irrational, more anti-Semitic, more threatening and more criminal as you proceed. And that way I can file a complaint against you and this website for intolerance, spreading lies and falsehood, racism and more.
Of course you can, you’re a thug making threats against free speech by labeling it as against your hate speech.
ARAB JEWS = ARAB,
ASHKENZI JEWS = EUROPEAN
No genetic connection between the two.

Then the European Jew knows how to MORPH into the white man?
Lemme see you MORPH back?
Indeed, Palestine in 1922, as today, included the Israeli-occupied territories known today as the West Bank and Gaza Strip.
Emphasis added:
“Favoring the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people.”
Of course, the assumption you’re making is that even if US policy had been one of supporting the establishment of a Jewish state in place of Palestine, that would have somehow lent legitimacy to the Zionists’ violent expropriation of Palestinian land.
You’re fudging facts and twisting history.
a. three months later, in 1922, Transjordan, part of Palestine, was removed from the Mandate that was grounded in a legal framework including this: “Whereas recognition has thereby been given to the historical connection of the Jewish people with Palestine and to the grounds for reconstituting their national home in that country”. The logical conclusion, even to your outlook, is that at the very least, what today is Israel, Judea, Samaria and Gaza, was to become of Jewish national home.
b. “in place of Palestine” I presume you mean to mean is that there was an Arab country but it was not. And it had no “Palestinian people” but a collection of Arabs from across the Middle East.
c. Zionists and centuries of Jews who immigrated to the country did not vioolently expropriate Palestinian land. In fact, until 1947, they had had to purchase back their own homeland, quite a unique phenomenon. The violence was that of the Arabs, in a political sense starting in 1920.
a. Transjordan (east of the Jordan) was a separate territory from Palestine (West of the Jordan). You’re confusing “Palestine” with the “Palestine Mandate”, the latter of which included Transjordan.
It was never the intention of the League of Nations to turn Palestine into a Jewish state. Of course, neither did it have any authority to take land from Arabs to redistribute to Jews. It’s instructive, however, that you accept the racist. colonialist premise that Western powers could do so.
b. You presume incorrectly. Of course it was not a country. So what? The Arab Palestinians (whom existed, idiotic nonsense to the contrary notwithstanding) had a right to self-determination then as they do today.
c. Israel came into being through the ethnic cleansing of 750,000 Arabs from Palestine.
a. No, it was not. And in fact, the same High Commissioner that supervised the Mandate west of the Jordan River did so east of the river until 1946. Transjordan became ‘separate’ only as a result of the British decision to placate a Saudi Arabian prince, Abdallah, who invaded the territory of Transjordan in November 1920. I am not confused nor confusing. And it surely was the intention to do so (establish a Jewish state in Palestine, at least in all the territory west of the Jordan River) but the British played footsie with their powers trying to shore up the Hashemites who also ruled Iraq from whence came their oil, all the way to Haifa.
And I protest your slur that my historical facts are somehow “racist” and “colonialist” in character.
b. as for idiocy, do the Jews not have at least the same right to self-determination? or are we second-class humans?
c. the only ethnic cleansing that took place was that of thousands of Jews who had been living, many for centuries, in the area of Judea, Samaria and Gaza and whom the Arabs uncer the direction of the Mufti killed, raped and pillaged between 1920-1948.
d. and as for your slurs, is there not an objective moderator at this site?
a. Again, Transjordan and Palestine were two distinct territories both included under the Palestine Mandate.
Your assumption that the great powers had authority to take land from Arabs to redistriute to Jews is racist and colonialist, notwithstanding your protestation.
b. Yes, of course Jews have a right to self-determination — a right denied to the Palestinians by the Zionists, not vice versa.
c. 750,000 Arabs were ethnically cleansed from Palestine to establish the “Jewish state” of Israel.
a. again, only as a result of the British Mandate and its efforts to appease the Hashemite Family ambitions to rule the entire Arab Middle East (Ali even declared himself Caliph for 8 mos.), in which Abdallah invaded Aqaba in Nov. 1920, did “Transjordan” begin to assume an identity, separated from the mandate for the Jewish state to arise.
The powers, great or small, at the end of a war launched by Turkey with Germany, legally could very much indeed distribute the now liberated territories and did so fairly, with 90% and more of the area going to Arabs in Iraq, Syria, etc. and a small sliver, the historic homeland of the Jews going to them. It is racism and colonialist-thinking to advance the idea that Arabs can deny Jews their national heritage rights in the land their culture, religion and essence is tied up with including Shiloh of the Tabernacle, Hebron of the Patriarchs’ Cave, Bet El of Jacob’s dream, of Shchem the buriall place of Joseph and more..
b. no right was denied to those Arabs resident in “Palestine”, they refused it in 1937 and again in 1947 and consistently engaged in terror and aggressive wr to deny the Jews any rights anywhere in the Land of Israel.
c. after launching a war in violation of the UN decision in November 1947 intending to continue to ethnically cleanse the Land of Israel in total of its Jews, in which they had partially succeeded in 1929 in Hebron, Gaza, Shchem and during 1936-39 other locations, the Arabs lost that war, not before ethnically cleansing Jews from Gush Etzion’s four villages, Bet HaAravah, Neveh Yaakov and Atarot as well as the Old City of Jerusalem.
But the really odd aspect of this is that those Arabs who left, fled or were expelled became refugees defined by UNRWA as “persons whose normal place of residence was Palestine during the period 1 June 1946 to 15 May 1948”. I ask you: two years residency makes one an indigenous Palestinian Arab? Usually one cannot even become a citizen of another country at least until five years pass. Don’t you think there is something odd here? That perhaps “ethnically-cleansed Arabs” were just going back to Lebanon, Iraq, Syria in part?
a. Again, Transjordan was not Palestine, nor Palestine Transjordan. These were distinct and separate territories under the Mandate. Again, your suggestion that the powers that be intended for all of Palestine to become a Jewish state is premised upon racist colonialism. And, again, the powers that be neither so intended nor claimed the authority to be able to do so.
a. How bizarre to assert that the ethnic cleansing of Arabs from Palestine, destruction of their villages, and violent expropriation of their land did not violate their rights.
c. Again, by the time the neighboring Arab states managed to muster a military response upon the Zionist’s illegitimate unilateral declaration of the state of Israel on May 14, 1948, a quarter of a million Arabs had already been ethnically cleansed from Palestine.
a. I think you are muddling things. From a geographical point of view, the territory that comprises “Palestine” and “Transjordan” is one historical unit, at least since 1100 BCE when the Israelite tribes incoporated most of it under their rule. Since then, all historians, travelers and such considered them one territory. Any search will inform us that “Britain administered the part west of the Jordan as Palestine, and the part east of the Jordan as Transjordan. Technically they remained one mandate, but most official documents referred to them as if they were two separate mandates.” “Separate mandates”, sir, not intrinsically separate countries. More: “Transjordan remained part of the Palestine Mandate and its legal system applied to all residents, both East and West of the Jordan River, who all carried Palestine Mandate passports. Palestine Mandate currency was the legal tender in Transjordan as well as the area West of the river. This was the consistent situation until 1946”. Moreover, the British “expanded” Transjordan: “In 1925, the British added 60,000 sq. km. of desert to eastern Transjordan forming an “arm” of land to connect Transjordan with Iraq and to cut Syria off from the Arabian Peninsula”. And did you know that in 1921, Haj Amin, the Mufti, wrote a letter to Churchill demanding that Palestine be reunited with Syria and Transjordan? See: Jon Kimche, There Could Have Been Peace: The Untold Story of Why We Failed With Palestine and Again With Israel, (England: Dial Press, 1973), p. 211. So, again, which powers wished to have a separate Transjordan – the so-called “Palestinians” or the Saudi Arabian Hashemites?
If it weren’t for British interference in the 1930s, purchase of land there by Jews would have gone on and our argument today would be moot. Here’s a news report: “May 26, 1933, Jerusalem (May. 25) — Representatives of twenty-three Transjordan villages, the head of one of the largest towns in the Transjordan and others representing Transjordan interests visited the offices of the Jewish Agency for Palestine here yesterday and urged it to buy land for Jewish settlement in the Transjordan.”
And throwing around terms like “racist colonialism” really does no one any good. If there are any real racial colonialists, there are too many Arabs among them.
b. I did not write local Arab in the Land of Israel have no rights. I simply pointed out that it was they who initiated a violent policy of ethnic clensing operations against Jews in an organized fashion in 1920 (previously, they just killed them on and off). I also note that in the Mandate decision, the only rights they did possess were defined as “civil and religious rights”, not political in the sense of the country was not to become a Jewish state, and, in fact, the term “Arab” is absent as “non-Jewish” is the term, which meant Arabs, Germans, Armenians, French, etc.
c. your “quarter of a million” figure is off. As for Arab states, they had been involved militarily in Palestine affairs since 1936. For example, Fawzi al-Qawuqji, born in Tripoli, Lebanon, began fighting the British and the Jewish population in the Mandate of Palestine on behalf of the Iraqi ‘Society for the Defense of Palestine’ which was separate from forces under the control of Grand Mufti of Jerusalem Haj Amin Husseini. He first led approximately fifty armed guerrillas into Palestine shortly after the April anti-Jewish pogroms broke out. By the way, in June he contacted Fritz Grobba, who was acting as German ambassador to Iraq. This was probably al-Qawuqji’s first encounter with a representative of Nazi Germany. In August, he commanded about 200 volunteers from Iraq, Syria, Transjordan, and the Samaria region of Palestine. His title was ‘Supreme Commander of the Arab Revolution in South-Syrian Palestine’.
And actually, almost all of those who left prior to May 14, 1948, voluntarily did so, seeking to relocate to avoid hostilities they themselves initiated in a war of aggression in violation of the UN resolution and decisions. After that date, I will agree that most of those who eventually claimed the status of refugees, many only residing in the country for two years previously, suffered unfairly the ravages of war, including displacement, having to move 20-30 miles away into another section of Palestine.
a. Again, Transjordan (east of the Jordan) was a distinct territory from Palestine (west of the Jordan).
b. Again, it was the Arabs whose right to self-determination was rejected, not vice versa.
c. Again, Israel was created by ethincally cleansing 700,000 Arabs from Palestine.
Again, by the time the neighboring Arab states managed to muster a military response, a quarter of a million Palestinians had already been ethnically cleansed.
Again, and again, and again and again, you are wrong, disfactual and misrepresenting.
The facts are as I’ve stated them, your substancless assertions to the contrary notwithstanding.
Jeremy R. Hammond – — – Geographically Trans Jordan of Palestine is still Palestine. Politically the British tore it from Palestine and gave it to some Saudi pro-British tribe in 1920.
That’s like saying “Canada of the United States of America is still the United States”.
You are mistakingly taking the fact both territories were included under what was called the Palestine Mandate to mean that Transjordan was part of Palestine. They were separate territories. Palestine was the territory west of the Jordan. Transjordan was the territory east of the Jordan (hence the name). The Palestine Mandate included both Palestine and Transjordan.
This is Palestine: https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/1c0d80a629de7aa595e13d7da71af46d646ab0e5f40a5e79566d684794b2fb2a.jpg https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/87c374a3199d2e606278549b017c954f56271817f3be37b2f435192f5c9cb23e.jpg
no, it is like saying Canada is part of North America. I do not say “Palestine” did not exist as a geographical area. It did. As a geo-political entity, it was first formed by the Mandate borders and administration as a country in the modern political sense. That definition was rejected by … its Arabs residents, many who were not native to the area by the time the UN decided to recommend a partition, partition having been suggested before and also rejected. As for national identity, even until today the Arabs of “Palestine” are divided amongst themselves if they are truly “Palestinian” or “Arab” or “Southern Syrians” or whatnot. For sure, in 1917-1922, it wasn’t that the European powers together with the Zionists overrode a local Palestinian nationalism. It simply did not exist and over 50 countries decided that whatever, the Jewish people had a better national/religious/cultural/historical/legal right and claim and recognized that, and writing “to reconstitute” the Jewish national home, while awarding Mandate status to other Arab areas to become independent states and then separating Transjordan for a Saudi Arabian (a point you seem to ignore no matter how many times I raise it).
This was Palestine, the original Palestine as conceived prior to the British decision of September 1922
That’s a map of the Palestine Mandate, which, as I’ve explained to you countless times now, included both Palestine (the territory west of the Jordan) and Transjordan the territory (east of the Jordan).
Attached is a map of Palestine (as opposed to the Palestine Mandate, which, again, included Palestine and Transjordan).
Land ownership for Palestine is as I stated in the article.
Jeremy R. Hammond – — – Palestine was a geographical term and not political expression and includes the two banks of the Jordan River. British made it a political expression once they divided the territory and established the Saudi kingdom in the East bank of Palestine, Trans Jordan, later to be called Jordan. The West bank of the Land of Israel, aka Palestine, from the river to the sea was intended to be the earmark for the establishment of the Jewish state.
Keep in mind that there is no Palestinian people at that time, certainly not before the 70s. The term “Palestinian” was an expression of citizenship of the inhabitants living under the British occupation administration. Jew was a Palestinian Jew, Arab was a Palestinian Arab, Greek was a Palestinian Greek and so on.
No. Transjordan was part of the Palestine Mandate. It was not part of Palestine.
Keep in mind that there is no Palestinian people at that time…
Nonsense.
A reading of the Wiki page on Medad might be enlightening. As a graduate of Yeshiva U. (the equivalent of Falwell’s “Liberty University”), Medad is NOTHING but a political shill – a poor fascist’s version of Alan Douchewits.
Try banning him rather than civilized humans, like Helen4Yemen and others who are trying to fight the Zionist cancer.
His posts are certainly “intentionally inaccurate” enough.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yisrael_Medad
“Yisrael Medad”, the hasbara shill, spews shyster-grade BS about the law and skids right past the fact that the “Balfour Letter” was ILLEGAL since England did not have the right to grant anything in Palestine to Europeans. Also, the Zionists immediately violated the terms of that letter, purchased by Rothschild………..
“…………it being clearly understood that nothing shall be done which may
prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish
communities in Palestine………..”.
Palestine was a mandate/protectorate under the laws of the League of Nations and, as such, could not be given away to a gang of Eastern Europeans financed by the predatory Rothschild family (until that burden was surreptitiously transferred to the American Taxpayer).
Even considering that the partition of Palestine could be legally justified, the Zionists have violated every treaty they have signed and are presently in violation of more international laws than any country in history.
As a “member” of the international community, Israel is a pariah. That state exists ONLY because of Zionist and bankster corruption of the Amerincan government, economy and media. In the 2014 BBC Global Opinion Survey, Israel and North Korea were tied for the title of “State/Culture With the Most NEGATIVE VALUE In The World”.
That was before the Israeli slaughter of 2400 Palestinians in the Gaza Concentration Camp, which, according to the Zionist controlled US mainstream media, was a “conflict”. Old AK-47s against main battle tanks, F-16s, missiles and heavy artillery is NOT a conflict.
Two thousand years ago, Jews (who actually were Arabs) proved to the Romans that they could not be trusted to run a state. Jewish treachery and barbarity were the cause of their “diaspora”.
Today European Caucasians, the spawn of converts to the Jewish cult, have proven that they, too, are incapable of running a state without treachery and barbarity, threatening the entire world with Nuclear Winter and the infiltration and corruption of other, legitimate, countries.
BOYCOTT, DIVEST, SANCTION THE CRIMINAL STATE OF ISRAEL until it learns to become a civilized member of the world community or vanishes from this Earth.
this is so much very blah-blah-blah. one example:
“Palestine was a mandate/protectorate under the laws of the League of Nations and, as such, could not be given away to a gang of Eastern Europeans financed by the predatory Rothschild family (until that burden was surreptitiously transferred to the American Taxpayer).”
a. the reason it was a Mandate was for the sole purpose of reconstituting the historic Jewish national home then being occupied by Arabs who had conquered the country in the 7th century. see: http://www.cfr.org/israel/san-remo-resolution/p15248.
b. it surely could be awarded (not “given away”) as per https://www.mtholyoke.edu/acad/intrel/britman.htm. And isn’t it amazing that in all these documents between 1917-1922, the word “Arab” to designate a people in “Palestine” (which local Arabs referred to as “Southern Syria”) never once appears? And that is because Arabs were granted their independence in other Arab lands, and then Transjordan was removed from the terms of the Mandate and given to a Saudi Arabian refugee who had invaded that country in November 1920.
c. “gang of Eastern Europeans” is not only historical incorrect as already in the Land if Israel a large number of local Jewish residents had been there for centuries and were non-Eastern Europeans but a mindless anti-Semitic trope. as is the reference to the Rothschild family without who European finances would have left the continent in financial ruin.
d. as for the “American taxpayer”, Jews are also included therein and if the Jews are so rich, as anti-Semitics claim, they also contribute but, of course, the reality is that most of the funding the US passes on to Israel is reinvested in American industries. Check it.
“a. the reason it was a Mandate was for the sole purpose of
reconstituting the historic Jewish national home then being occupied by
Arabs who had conquered the country in the 7th century. see:”
A completely INFANTILE comment, which stopped me from bothering to read further.
The PURPOSE of the Palestine Mandate was for the Jews? Just how sociopathically ethno-centric can a hasbara shill be? “Yisrael the EGO” is mentally ill – unless, of course, he/she/it is admitting that AshkeNAZ! Jews had totally perverted the League of Nations.
well, i tried. please, make sure your spittle doesn’t short your keyboard.
More drivel from the poor fascist’s version of Alan Douchewits.
Hope you stay and fight to the end – end of ZioFascism.
for sure. I’ll be there or rather here. I enjoy watching anti-Semites lose, time and time again.
Humans have beaten you creatures more than 100 times in the last 2000 years and we will do it again. This time you have no place to run.
No. The powers that be had no authority to take land from Arabs to redistribute to Jews. Nor, in fact, did they claim to.
FYI, tapatio has been banned for racist comments about Jews.
thanks for that!
and as for “authority” note the ANGLO-FRENCH DECLARATION of November 7, 1918: –
“The goal envisaged by France and Great Britain in prosecuting in the East the War let loose by German ambition is the complete and final liberation of the peoples who have for so long been oppressed by the Turks…the establishment of indigenous Governments and administrations in Syria and Mesopotamia which have already been liberated…to facilitate the economic development of the country by promoting and encouraging local initiative; to foster the spread of education; and to put an end to the dissensions which Turkish policy has for so long exploited. Such is the task which the two Allied Powers wish to undertake in the liberated territories.”
and this:- “The Treaty of Lausanne was a peace treaty signed in Lausanne, Switzerland, on 24 July 1923. It officially settled the conflict that had originally existed between the Ottoman Empire and the Allied British Empire, French Republic, Kingdom of Italy, Empire of Japan, Kingdom of Greece, and the Kingdom of Romania since the onset of World War I…The Treaty of Lausanne ended the conflict and defined the borders of the modern Turkish Republic. In the treaty, Turkey gave up all claims to the remainder of the Ottoman Empire and in return the Allies recognized Turkish sovereignty within its new borders.”
Like I said, the powers that be had no authority to take land from Arabs to redistribute to Jews. Nor, in fact, did they claim to.
The Balfour Declaration started the ball rolling, it said;
“The British Government view with favour the establishment of a national home for the Jewish people and will use their best endeavors to facilitate the achievement of this objective, It Being Clearly Understood That Nothing Shall Be Done Which May Prejudice The Civil And Religious Rights of Existing Non-Jewish communities in Palestine”.
The vast majority of the worlds 15 million or so Jews have no need or desire to live on stolen Palestinian land. It`s the Genocidal Apartheid activity of a minority 6 million or so Zionists that has resulted in organisations such as BDS.
If those Messianic Zionist Zealots had accepted the rights of some 12 million intrinsic non-Jewish Palestinians, what we would have is a pretty good multicultural Palestine.
If Zionist were Druids, the worlds reaction to their treatment of the intrinsic population would be no different, it has nothing to do with religion, it has everything to do with injustice.
No, it did not.
I could say the Christian Restoration of the 17th century was a modern political movement for the reestablishment of the Jewish State in the Land of Israel. Also statements of American Presidents like this from John Adams: “I really wish the Jews again in Judea an independent nation.” and John Quincy Adams: “[I believe in the] rebuilding of Judea as an independent nation.”
Consider that in November 1914, British cabinet member Herbert Samuel circulated a memorandum entitled The Future of Palestine promoting the “annexation of the country to the British Empire”.
The Balfour Declaration didn’t start anything but resulted from a long period of general international recognition that the Jews should be returned to their national homeland, there to reconstitute their state.
You seem to have sidestepped my main point, Yisrael, which was that the BDS campaign is a growing reaction to the activities of Zionist Israel, which is a Nation State for a minority of the worlds15 million, or so, Jews.
Personally I have no problem with any occupation of Palestine, history shows that Palestine has regularly been occupied, those occupying entities having “won the war” were usually careful to also “Win the peace”, withthe obvious exception of the Crusaders who simply refused to assimilate with the intrinsic population.
For the past 68 years Israel, with unconditional US financial, military and diplomatic support, has held all the cards, yet Palestinians have still to be persuaded of any advantage the State of Israel brings or even offers them.
Currently there are 5 million UN registered Palestinian refugees, all denied the right of return to their homeland, some 2 million Palestinians imprisoned in the Gaaz Ghetto, 3 million Palestinians living under occupation in the West Bank and nearly 2 million Palestinian/Israeli citizens subject to 60 Israeli laws applicable only to then.
Marriages between Israelis and Palestinian Israelis are not recognised by Israel.
that`s 12 million Palestinians subjugated by 6 million Zionist Israelis, of mostly European origin, who have overwhelming military strength and the backing of the US.
And it`s not just BDS, B`Tselem is a Zionist israeli organisation very concerned at Israel human rights abuses, then there is “Lifting the Silence”, consisting of past and current serving IDF soldiers who also speak out against Israeli treatment of Palestinians.
There is now a world wide “Apartheid Israel Week” organised by Universities and not anti-Jewish maniacs.
The International Criminal Court (ICC) has agreed to hear charges of Israeli War Crimes and Crimes against Humanity.
Then there are a record number of US vetoes when the UN Security Council voted on resolutions critical of Israeli actions and the situation where Israel is in violation of 77 UN resolutions.
That is the issue that Zionist Israel needs to address with some urgency, the Hasbara archives or the Jewish Virtual library (if you are not a Hasbara volunteer) which you seem to have used are Israeli propaganda tools, nothing wrong with that, but they are easily discredited these days.
And for what it`s worth, the “Natural Homeland” for Jews, is Southern Iraq, that`s where the Hebrews originated, with Abrahams birthplace being the ancient city of Ur. Of course it was Egypt in those days!
Not quite. This is rejection of Jewish nationalism. We cannot have a country, our history is ignored, what other peoples did to our land is ignored, etc.
I`m not at all sure of what you are saying, Yisrael.
What is “A rejection of Jewish Nationalism”?
Of some 15 million of the worlds Jews, 9 million live in their own respective homelands and not in Israel, are you saying those 9 million Jews are rejecting Jewish Nationalism?
As for “What other people did to our land is ignored, etc” is also a rather vague statement.
Zionist Israel expanded by military force, to include Palestine, part of Syria and Lebanon.
Zionist Israel has a military supremacy unmatched in the M.E. (The CIA estimate 200 to 400 Israeli nuclear warheads), and with the unconditional financial, military and diplomatic support of the US, Zionist Israel is impregnable at the current time.
Zionist Israel has “won the War” but is failing abysmally to “Win the Peace”.
12 million Palestinians, 400 million Arabs and 80 million Iranians (If you don`t consider them Arabs!), are yet to be convinced that the creation of Zionist Israel has provided any advantages to the intrinsic population.
Long standing “Arab” concerns are now becoming international with BDS just one more example, rather than providing your unconditional support for Zionist Israel, thought should be given to the cause that is producing the undesirable effect of Palestinian actions.
P.S. I emphasise Zionist Israel, simply because while many non-Israeli Jews may support Zionist Israel, they are not themselves Zionists, if they were they would be Zionist Israeli citizens, rejecting the dual passport situation of some 40% of the current Zionist citizens of Israel.
why is some fruitcake from Rome dictating policy to us here at the US?!
to see articles like this that legitimize and promote terror in the name of peace is saddening.
to say that settlements are the obstacle to peace when we see what happened when Gaza settlements were uprooted show in what a fantasy world the author lives in.
Yes, it is way past due time to properly condemn AIPAC and ban it as a terrorist org.
Why are white thug fruitcakes out of Europe dictating vicious abuse of the genuinely Semite people of Palestine? You appear to be quite a savage anti-Semite.
can you remind me what the land was called 2000 ago? can you remind me what it was called 3000 ago? Indeed Israel.
Btw are you suggesting jesus was not Jewish?
But you are the one showing a complete land of education. It was called Palestine, and only two of the small kingdoms in Palestine were called anything like Israel, or Judea, and they were peopled by Semites, not the white European Ashkeanzi freaks with all the weird genetic diseases.
How is what religion Jesus was at all relevant? Don’t people change their religion all the time? At one time they worshiped Baal, another time some vicious sky bigot, another time Christianity, another time Islam? But they are the same people.
So by asking me these silly questions, you are admitting that you can’t answer that fact that the white European Ashkenazi are not Semites and hold no right of ancestry to Palestine. They are assaulting and occupying the genuine Semite people that populated all the ancient kingdoms of Palestine.
Time for you white European terrorists to pack up and go home.
But then you have already proclaimed yourself completely morally bereft by naming yourself after a hideously spirited war criminal.

Fake video of Nasser! What ‘Jewish state’?
You mean for the Goldberg’s, Finkelstein’s and Wolfowitz’s?
I.e. strange foreigners with foreign faces and foreign names and foreign cultures ?
Letter from President Nasser to President Kennedy 1961 _____________________________________________
He who does not own has made a promise to he who does not deserve. Then both he “who does not own” and “he who does not deserve” were able, through force and deceit, to usurp the right of the legitimate owner and take away from him what he owned and deserved. This is the true picture of the Balfour declaration: Britain’s pledge, promising in a land she does not own, but is owned by the Arab people of Palestine – a Jewish home in Palestine. On the individual basis, Mr. President, not to speak of the international basis, the picture as such shows a clear case of larceny in which any ordinary court can convict those responsible.
There was never the word ‘Judea’ until the 10th century, because it is an English word, right? What was the word in Hebrew for ‘Judea? Yahoodi? Yuhooda? Talk to me, babe! Go ahead and stutter and stammer in a dug-up-from-the-grave language called ‘Hebrew’?

This is the reality by maps of what you savage white land-grabbing Europeans did to the genuine Semite indigenous people of Palestine.
http://www.veteranstoday.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/gellerdemon.jpg
By doing stuff like this…
“On 14 or 15 May [1948], a 12-year-old girl was raped by two Haganah soldiers; there were also a number of attempted rapes. There was widespread institutional and private looting by Haganah and IZL [National Military Organization or Irgun] troops and Tel Aviv citizens who infiltrated the town, there was robbery on the roads by patrolling Jewish troops and there was widespread vandalisation of property. In genera, the inhabitants complained, they were ‘being incessantly molested.’
“The looting was so bad that Chizik appealed directly to Ben-Gurion, who on 22 May ordered the IZL and the Haganah to obey Chizik’s instructions. A senior Kiryati officer, Zvi Aurbach, made a point of washing his hands of any responsibility for property in Jaffa. On 25 May, on official reported:
“‘During the whole day I walked about the streets…I saw soldiers, civilians, military police, battalion police, looting, robbing, while breaking through doors and walls…’”
Benny Morris, The Birth of the Palestinian Refugee Problem Revisited (Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 2004), 210-211.
So doesn’t that make you white European invaders into the Nazis you are always screaming about?
you were into child sacrificing then, and you still are. Barbaric racist.
How can that be? You white European Ashkenazi invaders were savagely sacrificing the children of the genuinely Semite indigenous people of Palestine with your to your evil Zionist ambition of stealing their country.

Ilan Pappe, an Israeli historian and Haifa University lecturer, whose ninth book is titled “The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine,” documents how Israel was born with lands forcibly seized from its Palestinian inhabitants who had lived there for hundreds of years. During the British mandate (1920-1948), Zionist leaders concluded Palestinians, who owned 90 percent of the land (with 5.8 percent owned by Jews), would have to be forcibly expelled to make a Jewish state possible. Pappe quotes David Ben-Gurion, Israel’s first prime minister, addressing the Jewish Agency Executive in June 1938, as saying, “I am for compulsory transfer. I do not see anything immoral in it.”
Pappe outlines Plan D (Dalet in Hebrew), which followed earlier plans A, B and C, and included forcible expulsion of some 800,000 Palestinians from both urban and rural areas with the objective of creating by any means necessary an exclusive Jewish state without an Arab presence. The methods ranged from a campaign of disinformation — “get out immediately because the Jews are on their way to kill you” — to Jewish militia attacks to terrorize the Palestinians..
Besides, the American government might into sacrificing other people’s children like the ZioNazi thugs do, but I look in horror on my government’s conduct.
those who hate America have no place here. We have nothing to discuss if you don’t agree with the foundations of the United States, in liberty, justice, and in a religious ethic.
Shame on you! ZioNazi liars like you don’t believe in any of that stuff. You glorify in being murderous terrorists and savagely slandering the victims.
You are no loyal American. You are a Zionist terrorist in spirit, who revels in America’s corruption…

On Jewish terrorism – British Secretary of State for the Colonies
On September 10, 1945, the British Secretary of State for the Colonies submitted a memorandum to the Prime Minister in which he stated:
The young Jewish extremists, the product of a vicious education system, know neither toleration nor compromise; they regard themselves as morally justified in violence directed against any individual or institution that impedes the complete fulfillment of their demands. In a similar spirit their ancestors in the second century B.C. laid waste Palestine until a ravaged countryside and ruined cities marked the zenith of Hasmonaean power. The prototypes of the Stern Group and National Military Organization are the Zealots and Assassins according to whose creed even Jews married to Gentiles were worthy of death in Roman times. These Zealots of today, from Poland, Russia and the Balkans have yet to learn toleration and recognition of the rights of others. As the Foreign Secretary said recently of the Balkans, these people do not understand the meaning of the word democracy. The Jewish Agency may deplore terrorism; but every immoderate speech … the flagrant disregard on the one hand for the authority of Government in maintaining law and order and on the other for the Arab case, the chauvinism and intolerance of their educational system, all contribute to an atmosphere in which the fanatic and the terrorist flourish. The Jewish leaders appear to be deliberately pushing extremism to a point when an explosion can no longer be avoided and do not scruple to use the plight of the Jews in Europe as a main political excuse. There are many Jews who deplore this state of affairs, but the rigidity of the discipline imposed by the political machine effectively discourages criticism except where it has no practical effect on Zionist policy. The Jews, like so much in Europe, need education in toleration and democracy.(6)

get the hell out of here!
God Bless America!
Tecumseh was far more noble than the white settlers who invaded and murdered his people, just as the Palestinians are far more noble than the white European Ashkenazi thugs that savagely invaded Palestine.
Sorry, but America doesn’t want any blessing from sick, evil thugs like you. But this is okay, if if don’t injure anyone doing it.

Banned for trolling. You were welcome to comment on the actual content. Making absurdly dishonest strawman arguments instead violates the terms of use of the comments section.
Since AIPAC and its 130+ front organizations are the primary vehicle for Zionism and Israel in thee United States and that organization is no different from (actually far worse than) the German-American Bund, banned by Roosevelt in 1938 and is also the “clearing-house” for that political cult’s control of the US Congress, HOW can condemnation of AIPAC not be appropriate to this article???

Actually, this fake little state with fake languages, stolen Arab foods, music, dance, culture is composed of imported peoples of many races, the white European Jew is citizen #1, followed by Arabs Jews as 2nd class citizens and the black Jews as 3rd class, each lives in its assigned environment.

GWB gave Ariel Sharon a letter recognizing the “new reality on the ground” (the settlements) in return for Israel’s evacuation from Gaza.
In other words, this is not a new policy of the US.
I see this anti-Israel plathform: nobody discusses,everybody, including author cry of this bloody Zionists preventing to put Israel on her place : no place at all. The Obama and his leftist Media propaganda works for Muslims against Jews. The majority of comments are racist.
So then, let’s see you make a case for the savage white European Ashkenazi invasion of the genuinely Semite indigenous people of Palestine.
I am taking care of the racist comments now and banning those who’ve posted them.
The brave moderator hides my comment against his anti-Jewish post. Though, this moderator support all these racist anti-semitic comments.
What are you talking about? This site has published all of MenachemBegin’s evil racist anti-Semitic rants. You must be using obscenities.
False. I haven’t moderated this post until now (3:30 pm 2/19/16). But you’re banned now for making such a false claim.
Boycott, Divest, Sanctions, it`s a “Will of the People” thing!
