Dålig representant för araberna i Knesset

De israeliska araberna kunde knappast ha en mycket sämre representant för sin sak i Knesset än Haneen Zoabi.
I en intervju säger hon att Israel har sig själv att skylla för terrorattacken i Bulgarien där fem israeler dödades.
Sådana uttalanden ökar inte förtroendet för araberna i Israel även om hennes åsikt naturligtvis inte delas av alla araber. Som medlem av parlamentet borde hon ändå inse att hon har ett visst ansvar, nu uttalar hon sig nästan på samma sätt som Iran gjorde för någon dag sedan när de anklagade Israel för att  stå bakom attacken mot sina egna medborgare i Bulgarien.
På fredagen förnekade Zoabi att hon skulle ha gjort uttalandena.

MK Zoabi: Israeli policy to blame for Burgas attack (Jerusalem Post)

"Israel is not a victim, and even when civilians are killed, the occupying Israeli policy is to blame," Channel 10 quoted Zoabi as saying.
 "If there was no occupation, no repression and no blockade, then this wouldn't have happened," she said during an interview at Haifa's Gordon College."

Palestinska ledare om Munchen OS terrorattacken

Palestinierna  tackar IOK för att de vägrar hålla en tyst minut till minnet av de mördade israeliska idrottsmännen för 40 år sedan i Munchen.
Jibril Rajoub, ordlörande för palestinska fotbollsförbundet, har sänt ett brev till IOK:s ordförande Jacues Rogge där han framför sitt tack till  Rogge för hans negativa inställning till Israels ( och många andras) krav på en tyst minut.
Vad som är betydligt värre är att de palestinska ledarna inte överhuvudtaget betraktar terrorattacken i Munchen 1972 där 11 israeliska idrottsmän dödades som en terrorattack.
Tvärtom beskriver de mannen som planerade attacken som en hjälte och terrorattacken som en lysande operation.
Det är dessa ledare som västvärlden håller vid makten genom ett stort ekonomiskt understöd.
Palestinian Media Watch skriver:
PA against moment of silence at Olympics:"Sports are meant for peace, not for racism"
The following are examples of how PA leaders and the PA's official newspaper Al-Hayat Al-Jadida have glorified the Olympic massacre and the terrorists who planned it:

Honoring Amin Al-Hindi, planner of the Olympic attack:

"One of the stars who sparkled... one of many shining stations."

Official PA daily on Al-Hindi:

"Everyone knows that Amin Al-Hindi was one of the stars who sparkled at one of the stormiest points on the international level - the operation that was carried out at the [Olympics] sports stadium in Munich, Germany, in 1972. That was just one of many shining stations."

[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Aug. 20,2010]

Secretary General of the Abbas' office, Al-Tayeb Abd Al-Rahim on Al-Hindi:

"Secretary General of the President's office, Al-Tayeb Abd Al-Rahim, delivered a speech in which he praised the qualities of the deceased. He stressed that the loss of Al-Hindi is a great loss to the Palestinian people, who are bereaved of a prominent national leader...
The Secretary General of the Presidential office said: 'We shall continue in the path of the Shahid (Martyr) Yasser Arafat and his fellow Shahids, such as Amin Al-Hindi...'"

[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Aug. 19, 2010]

Abbas and Fayyad honor Al-Hindi:

"The Palestinian leadership, along with President Mahmoud Abbas, parted yesterday from the body of the Fatah leader and fighter patriot Amin Al-Hindi. This was at an imposing official military funeral that was held at the [PA] headquarters...
Present at the headquarters for the farewell ceremony and for the official military funeral, along with the President [Abbas], were Prime Minister Dr. Salam Fayyad; Secretary General of the Presidential office, Al-Tayeb Abd Al-Rahim; members of the PLO Executive Council and of the Fatah Central Committee; several ministers, commanders of security forces, senior civic and military personnel, as well as relatives of the deceased... President Abbas and the participants at the funeral cast a final parting look at the body, and laid wreaths. Afterwards, the President and those present read the opening sura [of the Quran] for the elevation of his pure soul."

[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Aug. 19, 2010]

Honoring Muhammad Daoud Oudeh, 'Abu Daoud,' a second planner of the Olympic attack:

"His name shone brightly in the German city of Munich"

PA TV News, on Oudeh:

"Palestinians were surprised this morning at the announcement of the death of one of the most important leaders of the Palestinian revolution, Muhammad Daoud Oudeh (Abu Daoud), who engineered the Munich Operation and was one of the most important of Israel's most wanted in the 1970s."

[PA TV (Fatah), July 4, 2010]

Official PA daily, on Oudeh:

"In its [Black September wing of PLO] ranks were many distinguished men and women, headed by the Panther of Palestine, Salah Khalaf 'Abu Iyad.' Abu Daoud was one of his prominent assistants. His [Abu Daoud's] name shone brightly in the German city of Munich in 1972, where the Olympics took place. Oh, how these events evolved into a violent drama of the most tragic kind... May Allah have mercy on this great Fatah fighter and patriot, Abu Daoud."

Muslimsk förföljelse av kristna

Raymond Ibrahim skriver om muslimsk förföljelse av kristna som håller på att få epidemiska proportioner.

Muslim Persecution of Christians: June, 2012"[Egypt's] Muslim Brotherhood prevented the Copts, at gunpoint, from voting"

"Because the persecution of Christians in the Islamic world is on its way to reaching epidemic proportions, "Muslim Persecution of Christians" was developed to collate some—by no means all—of the instances of persecution that surface each month. It serves two purposes:

1. To document that which the mainstream media does not: the habitual, if not chronic, Muslim persecution of Christians.
2. To show that such persecution is not "random," but systematic and interrelated—that it is rooted in a worldview inspired by Sharia."

Judehat i Egypten

Egyptiska TV-kanalen Al-Nahar lurade några skådespelare att de intervjuades i israelisk TV. De egyptiska skådespelarnas reaktioner var förvånansvärt våldsamma. Det verkar finnas mycket hat mot judarna.

Audience applauds violent anti-Semitism on Egypt TV

Egyptian pranks (Jerusalem Post)

"Candid Camera-like pranks can be more telling than they might be funny. Egypt’s Al-Nahar TV featured separate interviews with three popular actors – two men and one woman – who were each told at some point that their appearances were being screened on Israel’s Channel 2. That alone sufficed to trigger violence and/or vituperation.
It matters little whether each of the three was genuinely outraged or just thought it prudent to defend his/her reputation from any possible perceived Israeli contamination. The remotest and most indirect connection to Israel was presented as justifying fury."

Irans och Hizbollahs terrorkampanj mot Israel

Enligt Ely Karmon i Haaretz har Irans och Hizbollahs nuvarande terrorkampanj mot Israel pågått i fyra år. Målet med kampanjen är att provocera fram en regional konflikt som skulle ta bort uppmärksamheten från Irans kärnvapenutveckling.
Bara under detta år har mer och mindre framgångsrika terrorattacker riktats mot judiska och israeliska mål i Bulgarien (2ggr), Azerbajdzjan, Thailand, Singapore, Indien, Georgien, Turkiet, Kenya, Syd-Afrika och Cypern.

J'lem begins campaign to out Iran, Hezbollah terror (Jerusalem Post)

"Israel launched a campaign Sunday to draw attention to Iran and Hezbollah’s involvement in international terrorism.
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu took his case to the US public and Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman announced a trip to Brussels to convince the EU to put Hezbollah on its terror blacklist.

Netanyahu, appearing on two Sunday morning interview programs – CBS’s Face the Nation and Fox News Sunday – said it was clear beyond a doubt that Hezbollah was behind Wednesday’s attack in Burgas that left five Israelis and a Bulgarian bus driver dead.
“I know, based on absolutely rock solid intelligence, this is Hezbollah, and this is something Iran knows about very, very well,” he said."

 

Problem för kristna i Gaza

Khaled Abu Toameh har skrivit om de kristnas situation i Gaza med anledning av senaste  veckas protester.
"Radikal islam, inte vägspärrar och säkerhetsstängsel, är det största hotet mot försvarslösa kristna inte bara i de palestinska territorierna utan i hela Mellanöstern."

Who Will Save the Christians in the Gaza Strip?

 "We only hear voices telling us not make too much noise. Today it is happening in the Gaza Strip, tomorrow it will take place in Bethlehem. In a few months, there will be no Christians left in Palestine." — Christian man, Gaza City"
