Det är tråkigt när kristna ledare ställer sig i det ondas tjänst. Ärkebiskop Desmond Tutu från Sydafrika har nominerat den palestinska terroristen Marwan Barghouti för Nobels fredspris. Barghouti är dömd för flera mord och sitter i israeliskt fängelse. Han har inte gjort något som gör honom aktuell för ett fredspris, men å andra sidan fick ju Yasser Arafat priset så man behöver tydligen inte göra något för fred för att få eller nomineras för priset.
Desmond Tutu nominates jailed Palestinian for Nobel Peace Prize 2017
Här lite bakgrundsfakta:
Desmond Tutu is Wrong about Marwan Barghouti (TheTimes of Israel, Emmanuel Navon))
"By recommending Marwan Barghouti for the Nobel Peace Prize, Archbishop Desmond Tutu made two mistakes: firstly, by comparing the struggle of the Palestinians to that of South Africa’s Blacks; secondly, by depicting Barghouti as a peace-loving freedom fighter..."

Palestinsk historieförfalskning och dödsdyrkan
Abbas falsely claims
6,000-year-old Palestinian nation (PMW)
Mahmoud Abbas:
"The Bible says that the Palestinians existed before Abraham"
"The invention of the Canaanite-Palestinian alphabet [was] more than 6,000 years ago"
Abbas' advisor claims
5,000-year Palestinian history in the land:
Mahmoud Al-Habbash:
"We have been here for the last 5,000 years, and have not left this land"
"Our forefathers are the monotheist Canaanites and Jebusites"
Abbas' statement about the Bible is false. The only Biblical reference Abbas could be talking about is the text that Abraham dwelt "many days in the land of the Philistines." (Genesis 21: 34). However, the Philistines have no connection to today's Palestinian Arabs. The Philistines were a people of Greek origin who settled in the land of Canaan and lived beside the Israelite tribes. The Palestinians who are Arabs could not have had ancestors in the land from biblical times predating Israelite and Judean statehood because Arabs only arrived in the land in 637 CE with the Muslim invasion. Needless to say, the "Palestinians" are not mentioned in the Bible. Significantly, Abbas says that this "fact" - which is a fabrication - is what gives Palestinians a "right" to the land.
Fatah leader praises terrorist stabbers: (PMW)
“They performed a miracle
by imposing a curfew within Israel
with knives and rocks”
“Blessings to the mothers and fathers who gave birth
to those who are marching on the path of light”
"...anyone who “talks about renewing the relations with Israel is not a Palestinian and not a member of Fatah!”
Talet hölls vid ett examenstillfälle på ett utbildningscenter som sköts av FN (UNRWA) och platsen var Röda Halvmånens högkvarter i Ramalla.

Finlands utrikesminister besökte Israel
Senaste vecka besökte Finlands utrikesminister Timo Soini Israel. Det var bra att han klart sa ut att Finland motsätter sig bojkott av Israel, vad det sedan betyder i praktiken är en annan sak.
PM Netanyahu Meets with Finnish FM Timo Soini
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu today met with Finnish Foreign Minister Timo Soini. At the start of the meeting, the Prime Minister detailed Israel's reasons for opposing the French initiative; he said that the conference would allow the Palestinians to evade direct negotiations.
Finnish Foreign Minister Soini emphasized that Finland opposed boycotts against Israel and expressed complete opposition to BDS activity.
The two men also discussed opportunities for enhancing bilateral relations on a range of issues
Timo Soini:
TERVEISIÄ JERUSALEMISTA
"Tein hyödyllisen vierailun Israeliin ja Palestiinaan. Sain hyvän vastaanoton joka paikassa. Tilanne on vaikea, eikä luottamusta juuri ole. Toivoa on kuitenkin aina..."

Begränsad yttrandefrihet eller stopp för hatpropaganda i EU
Soeren Kern skriver om ett ganska kontroversiellt beslut som inte nödvändigtvis behöver ha negativa konsekvenser, men som nog kan ha det:
EU förklarar krig mot yttrandefriheten på nätet
"I veckan antog EU tillsammans med Facebook, Twitter, YouTube och Microsoft en ny "uppförandekod", i syfte att motverka "olaglig hatpropaganda" i Europa.
Förespråkarna hävdar att efter de senaste terrorattackerna i Paris och Bryssel, är det nödvändigt att ta krafttag för att bekämpa jihadistpropaganda på nätet.
Motståndare menar att åtgärden är en attack på yttrandefriheten i Europa. Man menar att EUs definition av "hatpropaganda" och "våldsuppmaningar" är så vag att nästan vad som helst kan räknas in som strider mot det europeiska myndigheter anser vara politiskt korrekt, däribland kritik mot massinvandring, islam eller EU..."

Inget nytt från mötet i Paris
Ett uttalande i allmänna ordalag, det var i stort sett allt vad "fredssamtalen i Paris åstadkom".
Israel betraktar i alla fall mötet som ett misslyckande eftersom mötet istället för att uppmana palestinierna att återvända till förhandlingar med Israel understöder en internationell fredskonferens.
Paris summit communiqué in full (The Times of Israel)
“The Participants met in Paris on June 3, 2016 to reaffirm their support for a just, lasting and comprehensive solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
“They reaffirmed that a negotiated two-state solution is the only way to achieve an enduring peace, with two states, Israel and Palestine, living side by side in peace and security. They are alarmed that actions on the ground, in particular continued acts of violence and ongoing settlement activity, are dangerously imperiling the prospects for a two-state solution.
“The Participants underscored that the status quo is not sustainable, and stressed the importance of both sides demonstrating, with policies and actions, a genuine commitment to the two-state solution in order to rebuild trust and create the conditions for fully ending the Israeli occupation that began in 1967 and resolving all permanent status issues through direct negotiations based on resolutions 242 (1967), 338 (1973), and also recalling relevant United Nations Security Council resolutions and highlighting the importance of the implementation of the Arab Peace Initiative.
“The Participants discussed possible ways in which the international community could help advance the prospects for peace, including by providing meaningful incentives to the parties to make peace. The Participants also highlighted the potential for regional peace and security as envisioned by the Arab Peace Initiative.
“The Participants highlighted the key role of the Quartet and key regional stakeholders. They welcomed the interested countries’ offer to contribute to this effort. They also welcomed France’s offer to coordinate it, and the prospect of convening before the end of the year an international conference.”

Fredskonferens i Paris
En fingervisning av vad som är att vänta av "fredssamtalen " i Paris.
France says Israeli settlements main ‘threat’ to two-state solution, ahead of peace summit (Jerusalem Post)
Forget unrelenting terrorism, the Hamas-Fatah split, and the consistent Palestinian refusal to recognize Israel as the national home of the Jews. According to a French pre-summit paper published on Thursday, settlement activity is the main threat to a two-state solution...
...The document did not include a word regarding any Palestinian culpability for the current diplomatic logjam. It also seemed to seek to revitalize the notion, which lost much of its currency following the Arab Spring, that the Israeli-Palestinian conflict was at the core of instability in the Middle East.
