IS THERE A MUSLIM IN THE WHITE HOUSE?

Posted by yipbop · Leave a Comment 

IS THERE A MUSLIM IN THE WHITE HOUSEIt’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.

SOLANA’S LAST GIFT

Posted by yipbop · Leave a Comment 

solana 300x296 SOLANA’S LAST GIFTIt 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.

WILL NOT BUILDING AN EXTRA BATHROOM TEMPER ISLAMIC RAGE?

Posted by yipbop · Leave a Comment 

will not buildingIt is obvious that the world leaders’ fixation on stopping settlement activity in Judea and Samaria (real names of what they call the West Bank) prevail over disastrous and genocidal events taking place in our planet which have regional and global implications such as genocide in Afghanistan by the Taliban, the riots by the oppressive and theocratic regime in Iran, the humanitarian catastrophe in Darfur, the displacement of millions of refugees in N. Pakistan, the unrelenting nuclear proliferation in N. Korea and Iran, the Islamic race toward establishing shariah law throughout the world through force, and on, and on.  It is indeed very worrisome that our lives and freedom as human beings are in the hands of weak and unrealistic leaders who are bowing down to corruption and dictatorships such as the latest appeasement speech by Barak Hussein Obama to the Islamic world.

The greatest and most enduring fabrication of the past century is the Palestinian historical and cultural claims to the Land of Israel. Let me remind you that there was never a Palestinian state in Israel nor was there Palestinian language or culture in this land. In fact, prior to 1948, Jews were called Palestinians. Everyone seems to discard the important fact that this Palestinian claim never happened prior to the 1967 six-day Israel’s victory war. Never mind that the leaders of Europe and U.S. are completely ignoring this important fact, and that they are well aware that the Palestinian claims are a hoax. These leaders are either Pavlovian idiots or anti-Semites. In either case, Israel is receiving the brunt of the ills of the world by being pressured to split their tiny land with an entity that is bent on conquering it in stages. It is obvious that such a plan represents a death sentence to the survival of Israel. In fact, solving the Israel/Palestinian conflict will not pacify Islamic extremism in the world; it is just an excuse for continued incitement and a strategic goal of destroying freedom in the Western world and restoring Islamic caliphates globally.

There isn’t room between the River Jordan and the Mediterranean for two viable states to exist and it is a formula for economic decline and worsening warring conflicts. The conflict between the Palestinian authority/Hamas and Israel is not, as all leaders of the world claim as territorial, it is about ideology and the hatred that exists in the Arab world vis-a-vis the Jewish state.  No cessation of settlement construction leading to an Islamic Palestinian state will quash the thirst of the Islamic populace to destroy Jewish presence in the Middle East. The latest appeasement speech by Hussein Obama with its declaration that the U.S. will never be at war with Islam, will only strengthen the Islamic terrorists of the world to continue their fanatic and ultimate war against the West and their freedom values for all its citizens.

If settlement activity in Judea and Samaria represents or symbolizes the ills of the world, then everyone should breathe in relief. But unfortunately, all the incessant comings and goings of government leaders from Europe and the U.S. to subjugate Israel into stopping to build extra bathrooms in an established so-called settlement while ignoring real threatening extremist conflicts and warfare in other parts of the globe will not only strengthen and instill more confidence to terrorists, but hasten the prophesied clash of civilizations to take its toll in our times.

HOW DO YOU FIGHT LIES?

Posted by yipbop · Leave a Comment 

pinocchio 199x300 HOW DO YOU FIGHT LIES?Ever since 1948, Israel has been forced to defend itself against implacable enemies, and the rest of the world rather than support this small Jewish state, is even questioning its existence. These insidious critical voices mostly originate from the European elites as well as from the American left who are instigating the elimination of the Jewish state of Israel and replacing it with a bi-national Palestinian-Jewish state in its place.

With all this negative brouhaha, one wonders what created this enormous rejection of Israel. It seems that those in charge of the political course and social stability in the world are ignoring the incontestable historic and cultural rights of the Jewish people to the Land of Israel, more so than in any other country in the world.  Most importantly, Israel is the only state that was created in the last century whose legitimacy was recognized by both the League of Nations and the United Nations. In fact, historically, early recognition was acknowledged by such world leaders as President Adams and Napoleon Bonaparte.

The most astonishing invention that has come about since Arafat was brought to Israel in 1964 from Tunis with the creation of the PLO, were the famous words “occupation” and “Palestinian people.” I challenge all of you to define the origins of Palestine and the basis for “occupation.” Arafat has claimed that there was an Arab Palestinian society in place prior to the birth of Israel, whose rights are even superior. Yet, if you bother to look at the historical records, when the Jewish presence settled the land, there was a large influx of Arabs from neighboring countries such as Egypt, Syria, Iraq and Jordan who were searching for economic opportunities brought about by the Jews.

What about the obsessive repeated word “occupation?” Has a sovereign state called “Palestine” ever existed? No. Was there a state of Palestine promised by the UN Security Council Resolution 242? No. How Jews were called pre-1948? Palestinians.  Was the term “occupation” ever mentioned prior to 1967? No.

It is obvious that Israel has an insurmountable battle in order to discredit the lies brought about not only by the Arab world, but especially by the anti-Semites, the media, the UN, the EU, and the Jewish left. These deliberate blunders to delegitimize the State of Israel are worse than actions and it would be very hard to uproot them than to plant them in the first place. So how do you fight lies?  By exposing the factual truth in a multifaceted fashion throughout all corners of the world, with all Jews, some 13 millions of them starting with the Government of Israel, being the participants.

THE HOAX OF OCCUPATION

Posted by yipbop · Leave a Comment 

In the news emanating from world renowned newspapers, and throughout the years, Al Quds Day is celebrated throughout the Arab world claiming sovereignty of Jerusalem and of the entire Palestine. Let’s not dismiss that the indisputable historical proof rests with the Balfour Declaration by the League of Nations which was established to support the creation of a Jewish homeland in the Palestine region, which was the site of the ancient Kingdom of Israel. Why does the Israeli government not bring this signed document into light? Why is this government not producing documents countering these false allegations? According to the Muslim claims, Israel is targeted as the “occupying” force in Israel and we have no claim whatsoever to this land; it is not about the so-called West Bank (Judea and Samaria), Gaza and Jerusalem; indeed, the entire land of Israel is occupied (see PLO charter) and, according to frequent allegations from Ahmadinejad, we belong to Europe or somewhere else including Alaska. “Occupation, occupation” is the de rigueur word uttered by a wave of mouths throughout the world.

According to claims throughout the vast Muslim world, initiated by the late Arafat, in particular, the following myths were created: Jews never existed in the Land of Israel; no Jewish temples have ever existed; Jerusalem is Islam’s third holy place and should not be “judaized”; the Jews have stolen Palestinian land and continue to occupy it; even that Jesus was a Palestinian. The Arabs have studied and learned their lesson well from the infamous Hitler propaganda — if you repeat a lie long enough, people will end up believing it is the truth.  Yet, the silence in the world media is deafening. Jewish history and bond to this land is being rewritten for the sake of ignorant and misguided young Muslims who are being brainwashed, and led to believe their leaders, with the aim of destroying Jewish presence in this land. Israel, including Jerusalem and the Temple Mount is a bargaining chip between an incompetent and corrupt Israeli government compounded by the Left media, and holocaust deniers who mingle in the midst of terrorists they intend to defend.

It is incumbent upon the Jewish people worldwide and of this government, in particular, to counter this hoax once and for all, and proclaim our historical innate bond to this land. The penchant shown by Israeli and foreign diplomats to rush into harmful summits and peace processes to extirpate more land from Israel so that it can be turned into enclaves for terrorist groups must be put to an end.
