IS THERE A MUSLIM IN THE WHITE HOUSE?

It’s in the news, not only in Israel but throughout the world, that the new U.S. President, Barack Hussein Obama’s latest demands of Israel are not gaining much sympathy, not only from right wingers, but even from the Left crowd in Israel and U.S. He has displayed bigoted naivety with his insistence that Israel freeze settlement construction in many parts of Eastern Jerusalem. In fact, Obama is actually telling Israel that “Jews are not allowed to live in some parts of its capital city, Jerusalem.” What a chutzpah! While Israeli Arabs can rent and buy property anywhere they wish, Jews, as if to prolong the ghetto verdict of past times, cannot.
Not only has Obama offended most Jews who care about their identity, respect and security, he has also emboldened the Arab countries, especially the PA President, Mahmoud Abbas to continue to make even more outrageous demands from Israel. Indeed, the PA leadership does not have to lift a finger any longer; let the U.S., the “staunch ally” of Israel take care of their business; it is so much more effective. In fact, Prime Minister Netanyahu fumed at this imposition and admitted to being “surprised” as to how the so-called “staunch ally” of Israel could even suggest, let alone make, such a claim. This President Obama, as I pointed out in many of this writer’s previous essays, is taking sides with the Muslim world while repudiating Israel’s security and well-being. Is it naivety or is he instinctively pursuing Israel’s decline at the behest of the Islamic world? He has recently bowed and praised Saudi Arabia’s king where human rights violations are the highest in the world and, importantly, where no Jew can set foot in this country and apologized to the Islamic world in his “historic” speech in Cairo. Barack Hussein Obama even neglected to mention to the Muslim world that the Jews have a historic, cultural and religious link to the Land of Israel, by instead stating that Israel deserved to exist due to the Jews’ suffering during the Holocaust. His stance against Israel also disregards the unrelenting terrorism in the form of intifadas and rocket fire, the incitement and the covenants from Fatah and Hamas calling for the demise of Israel.
As I said previously, Barack Hussein Obama is either a very inexperienced and naïve politician on foreign policy or an astute pro-Islamic, anti-Israel player whose ultimate goal is to gain power and sympathies from the Islamic world even if it would threaten the security of Israel. If he actually dreams of his ambition of being the first President to actualize “peace” between Israel and the Palestinians, he is in for a downfall because Israel will not commit suicide. Just recently, and I presume that Obama does not read headlines when they are not in his strategic favor, a veteran senior leader of Fatah and other prominent members of the Palestinian authority government have proclaimed that they will never recognize Israel’s right to exist, nor would they relinquish the armed struggle against Israel.
The erosion of Israel’s security by splitting its land and sharing it with sworn enemies through Obama’s unrealistic and sinister demands is forging animosity and distrust from Jews around the world. The overwhelming majority of Jews in the U.S. who voted for Obama are in for a big disappointment should he continue with his dangerous anti-Israel stand which actually nullifies his previous pledge to safeguard the security and well-being of Israel.
ONCE A VASSAL, ALWAYS A VASSAL

This writer believes that Jews continue to retain some degree of the submissive, complacent and obedient mentality inherited from their forefathers thousands of years ago while in slavery during the Pharaonic period, and not too long ago when they were expelled and massacred from country to country throughout their Diaspora culminating into the most horrendous mass killings under the Nazi regime.
Presently, although the Jews have managed to build an independent democratic nation, Israel, and a strong army and economy, they are still showing signs of submissiveness and subjugation to the rather strange and punitive demands from several U.S. administrations, especially that of Barak Hussein Obama. This type of “idolization” vis-à-vis the most powerful nation on earth appears to emulate prior Jewish submissive behaviors which culminated in their own tragedy. When Barack Obama is taking a tough and demanding stance to have Israel refrain from building for natural growth, tear down the Jerusalem wall, stop building illegal settlements, especially in Jerusalem, the undivided capital of the State of Israel, you know that this behavior is intended to placate the Arab street at the expense of the once again “sacrificial lamb.” Ironically, it is not just the U.S. who is telling Israel how to govern, the French President, Sarkozy, echoed the U.S. by urging Israel to stop building Jewish settlements and even had the chutzpah to request that Netanyahu sack his foreign minister.
All Israeli governments have shown signs of submissiveness by taking enormous risks to obey the international community’s demands, starting with the dangerous peace processes of Oslo, Taba, the Camp David, Gaza, etc., etc., that gave the Palestinians autonomy without quid pro quo for Israel except terrorism, incitement and Jihad which has claimed thousands of Jewish lives. Amazingly, the more Israel has ceded and extended its hand for peace, the more it has been globally demonized, delegitimized and scorned.
The Israeli leadership rather than taking courageous and justified steps like any other sovereign country would in the world to stop what has become an absurd situation that threatens the Jewish people with the loss of their indisputable rights to their one and only land, has instead been courting the U.S. and the international community by even offering on several occasions in a silver platter over 98% of land in Judea and Samaria with land swaps, including Judaism’s most venerated and holiest of sites, the Temple Mount by such previous Prime Ministers as Barack and Olmert. All of these peace overtures have miraculously been rejected by the PA because it did not include the return of the Palestinian refugees to Israel, a strategy to demographically destroy the Jewish state.
Jewish submissiveness to the modern Pharaoh, Obama, will only bring disaster and eventually the demise of the Jewish State. Jews seem to have a short memory when thinking that the U.S. looks after Israel’s interest. You may recall for instance the American inaction against the British government to repudiate the malevolent White Paper to restore the Jews of Europe and gain refuge in their homeland. Israel should be governed by a leadership that takes pride in its Jewish history, culture and God-mandated eternal heritage of the Land of Israel in its entirety. Bowing to the U.S. and the international community’s demands to partition the land with enemies bent on Israel’s destruction will create a dangerous and deadly situation not only for Israel but for Jews throughout the world.
SOLANA’S LAST GIFT
July 15, 2009 by yipbop · Leave a Comment
It seems that the top diplomat of the European Union, Javier Solana, insists on leaving an offensive vestige on his obsessive courtship toward a two-state solution in the Land of Israel before his retirement. As you are probably aware, Solana has made headlines this week when he gave a speech in London in which he said that if an agreement between Israel and the Arab Palestinians did not come to fruition, that the United Nations should unilaterally enforce the two-state “solution” to the conflict including borders, refugees, and Jerusalem.
It takes a lot of chutzpah to make such an absurd statement to the world about a sovereign country such as Israel. I should retort to Solana who is a Spaniard, that people who live in glass houses should not throw stones. Meaning, Israel could also ask that the UN Security Council recognize the independent state of Basque in Spain, since for many years ETA (similarly to the PLO) has used terrorism and violence in a political war against the government in Madrid. But it is not proper to meddle in other countries’ internal affairs and Solana should know better.
It is obvious to this writer that Solana’s behavior throughout the years as Chief of the European Union and the hypocrisy that he has shown and continues to show vis-à-vis Israel is not suspected of being pro-Israeli. As a diplomat of this stature, Solana made the most stupid and credulous statements that anyone could imagine; for example, he insisted in an interview with the then Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni, that it was “not impossible” for Hamas to change and “recognize the existence of Israel,” and that Hamas wants to “liberate the Palestinians, not to destroy Israel.” According to his words, he appears to be oblivious to the culture of terror that represents Hamas. Hamas refers to any town in Israel as an “illegal settlement.” Its declared aim is to destroy Israel. Hamas has proudly endorsed, initiated and sent numerous suicide murderers into Israeli buses, supermarkets, shopping malls, weddings and other crowded places. The Hamas media, and especially its independent TV station, carry daily children programs (including programs for kindergarten age) depicting the Jews (and not only the Israelis) as pigs, dogs, scum of the earth and creatures that must be killed. I could go on and on, but it seems that all of these “deeds” are inconsequential to Solana.
Solana also carelessly declared that the construction of the security fence was a bad idea for Israel when this so-called “wall” has prevented over 95% of suicide bombers since its erection in 2002. This should teach you that Solana does not have any notion of what Jihad or Hamas stands for. In fact, he seems to also ignore Hamas’ charter stating that “so-called peace solutions and international conferences to resolve the Palestinian problem are all contrary to the beliefs of the Islamic Resistance Movement.
I would like to say to Solana without any hesitation “Solana, your contributions to Israel are contrary to what you would do in your own country; your diplomatic hypocrisy vis-à-vis Israel is so apparent that your departure from the scene is indeed a cause for celebration.” Solana’s last statement before his retirement about the UN enforcing a two-state solution down the throat of Israel, in view of his past suspicious Israeli political agenda, has already been dismissed as dangerous by those in Government whose heads are in the right place for the time being.
