The so-called ‘War on Terror’ is a ludicrous concept.
Terror is a tactic and you cannot wage war on a tactic. You can wage war on an
ideology or a policy but you cannot wage war on a tactic. The enemy is not
terror, it is the Jihadist campaign to conquer the entire world; it is a ‘War
on Islamism'; or as PM David Cameron put it on
Fear of being accused of Islamophobia
has inhibited policy makers and strategists from calling a spade a spade. But
just as one could be against Nazism without being against German culture so one
can be against Islamism without being against the Muslim religion. In the same
vein, just as many scholars have noted that Nazism would not have been possible
without some profound psychosis inherent to German culture, so it should be
acceptable to speculate whether Islamism would have been possible without some
profound psychosis inherent to Muslim culture. This is a legitimate question
for non-Muslims to ask and absolutely vital for moderate Muslim intellectuals
to ask and answer. Asking it does not make one a racist or an Islamphobe; just as asking a similar question about German
culture would not make one a racist or a Germanophobe.
Islamism is an “ism” - a totalitarian ideology with
an internally coherent worldview, much like Fascism, Nazism, and Communism.
This ideology manifests itself in various Islamist movements which include the
Muslim Brotherhood, Hamas, Hezbollah, the Iranian Ayatollahs, Saudi Wahhabis,
Moderate Islamism is an oxymoron. There may be
moderate Muslims but definitely no moderate Islamists. There is not a hair of
ideological difference between the various Islamist groups. There are
theological differences, policy distinctions, and diverse strategies and
tactics (some, indeed, more moderate than others) but ideologically, all aim to
subjugate other religions and worldviews and create an Islamist Caliphate…
Keeping
the Humiliating Status Quo on the
Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, US Secretary of State John Kerry and
Israel Said
Get Lost to 'Ugly Nazi'
Food for Thought by Steven Shamrak
In their ‘balanced’
coverage of news two Australian government TV channels, ABC and SBS, show news
from many Muslims countries, including at least 2,5 hours of Al Jazeera news. Not a single news program comes from Israeli
news providers! At the same time, Israel-bashing is the main pre-occupation of
news programs of both channels. What a shameful display of ‘non-biased’
approach to international news coverage and an abuse of “free speech”, as well
as violation of an Australian law, by the Left-infested editorial staff and
management. If this is happening in a democratic country - what can be expected
from Islamic dictatorships!
Citizenship
is Honor and the Privilege
Prime
Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that he will instruct the interior minister to
evaluate revoking the citizenship of those who “call for the destruction of the
State of Israel,” following the death of a second victim from last week’s
terrorist attack in Jerusalem. (Will he do it or is
it another political stunt?)
Hostile Intention towards Israel - no Unity Amongst
Terrorists
Mahmoud Abbas
announced that the shrine of Yasser Arafat will be moved to Jerusalem "the
capital of Palestine" at the earliest opportunity. Meanwhile, the Fatah
movement canceled the 10th anniversary of the death of Arafat in Gaza -
"After the series of explosions and assaults against Fatah leaders.”
Time
for Israel to ‘Reengage’ with Jewish Land
Thousands of Jewish Israelis were expelled from their homes during
the 2005 Disengagement - but soon, some of them may have a chance to return.
MKs Ze'ev Elkin (Likud) and Orit Struk
(Jewish Home) have drafted a bill to restore Homesh
and Sa-Nur to its former Jewish residents, Walla!
News reports on Wednesday night, as well as to "eliminate the rights"
of those who have invaded the communities since then. The foundation of the
bill is based on the fact that both Homesh and Sa-Nur are in the area of Judea-Samaria under full control of
the State of Israel.
The
mosque 'arson' may have been an electrical fire. The mosque allegedly torched
in a "price tag" attack near Shiloh may have been staged. It was
revealed that a fuse box under the mosque was also burned - as well as a space
heater, infamous for causing fires, found nearby. So after it was discovered,
the space heater was removed from the site (to blam Jews for fire). It is worth noting that initial
reports from the site noted that unlike in other "price tag"
incidents, the alleged "arson" was not accompanied by any graffiti.
Some 'price tag' cases were being systematically staged by Arab activists. There have also been numerous incidents of Arab "price taggings"
against Jews though such incidents have received far less media coverage.
Is this Another Useless anti-Israel Smear Inquiry?
UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon
appointed a five-member panel to investigate Israeli strikes on UN shelters
during the Gaza war, as well as the discovery of Hamas weapons at UN sites.
Israel maintained that Islamist Hamas terrorists were using the schools to
store weapons but denied that it had deliberately targeted the schools, which
were being used as shelters by Palestinians during the 50-day war. (Will the ‘Ugly Nothing’ investigate how
for years the UN-run facilities were allowed to be used as weapon storage and
for launching rockets at Israel? UN promised to investigate the cases where
rockets were found at UN run facilities - when ‘pigs fly’!)
Shoot
to Kill is the Rule for Terrorists
Security forces must do everything in their power to fight
terrorists - and that includes, said Defense Minister Moshe Ya'alon,
implementing “shoot to kill” orders when needed. Ya'alon
made the comments visiting an army base in Gush Etzion,
a day after the stabbing murder of Dalia Lemkos of Tekoa at the Gush Etzion
Junction.
Daily Stabbings - Result of the Fake Peace Process
Almog Shiloni, the
20-year-old IDF soldier who was critically wounded in a terrorist stabbing
attack at the entrance to Tel Aviv's Hahagana train
station has died of his wounds. The terrorist had illegally entered into
sovereign Israeli territory. A Palestinian man stabbed three Israelis at the
entrance of the Alon Shvut
settlement - a 25-year-old Israeli woman died in the incident and the other two
victims have been hospitalized for moderate injuries.
Not
all Hollywood is anti-Israel ‘Stupid’
The
annual fundraising bash thrown by the Los Angeles branch of the Friends of the
IDF raised $33.5 million in donations for the Israeli military. Among the
star-studded stars - Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sylvester Stallone, Barbara
Streisand, Pamela Anderson - at the gala were also notable international
businesspersons like founder and executive chairman of Oracle, Larry and
founder and CEO of computer giant Dell, Michael Dell.
Quote of the Week:
“Ironically,
the two-state solution is among the most irrational, unsuccessful policies the
United States has ever adopted. For the past ninety years, the two-state
solution has been tried more than a dozen times, and every time it has failed,
abysmally… This demand is without precedent in the history of warfare. There is
no precedent of a civilian population, displaced by a war that their leadership
started and lost, claiming a right to return to territory that they failed to
conquer.” - Caroline Glick - The US imposed solution does not work. It has only weakened
Israel’s and the US’ stand in the Middle East. Now, the terror techniques
perfected by ‘Palestinians’ in Israel are used by al-Qaeda and the Islamic State!
AIDS is still a Suspect
by Steven Shamrak
So-called Palestinians marked 10 years since
the mysterious death of their ‘iconic’ leader Yasser Arafat. Then Israel was immediately fingered as a main suspect in his alleged
assassination! Then some of his comrades, due to internal power struggle in
Fatah, were also put under suspicion. At the same time, not then nor since, not
a single ‘brave’ independent journalist or a news publication, or TV station
have been prepared to investigate and find out the true cause of the death of
the notorious Egyptian terrorist - a leader of the fake Palestinian nation -
his alleged homosexuality and pedophilia, and suspicious illness! They also did
not care to question how many millions of dollars, out of funds eagerly donated
to enemies of Israel by the international political anti-Semites, his widow and
members of his family extorted from the PA for their silence!
A hospital spokesman 'said there would be no details released about the
cause of Arafat’s death because of French privacy laws'. Why would Arabs, with
cooperation of the Arafat family, need to invoke French privacy laws? Dr.
Arafat (half brother) said that he met French Foreign Minister Michel Barnier
on the day of his brother's death and discussed the issue with him: "He
told me it is not in the interest of France or our (PA) interest to disclose the
cause of his death. Holding any party criminally responsible for his death will
create political trouble". Who will be in political trouble? Surely, if
the trouble was meant for Israel the documents would be revealed immediately!
"The full medical report of President Arafat is a historical
document for the Palestinian people," said Hassan Abu Libdeh, the PA
cabinet secretary. "We will get the report and the Palestinian Authority
will take the necessary decisions including informing the Palestinian people
about the full details of the report". Yasser Arafat's nephew, Nasser
al-Kidwa, obtained the medical records many weeks ago. The PA can’t blame the
‘evil widow’ for being silent any more! How much do they pay her for silence?
Why has Arafat’s nephew, who was so eager to tell the truth about
Arafat’s death, suddenly became mute and evasive? He had plenty of time to
study the official French report of his uncle's death. The only statement he
has made, so far, is that his uncle had died of "unnatural" causes,
implying Israel had poisoned Arafat. AIDS is an "unnatural" cause of
death too!
The toxicology tests were conducted during Arafat's two-week stay in a
French hospital but "no poisons known to doctors were found." PA
Foreign Minister Nabil Shaath has said: "We know what it is not. It is not
malignancy or cancer anywhere in his body." But, uncharacteristically for
modern medical practice, no autopsy was conducted.
Years ago, Oriana Fallaci, an Arab sympathizer at the time, reported
that Arafat’s headquarters in Tunis had a number of blonde German young men
running around. She found that not only Arafat was homosexual, but that it was
well known fact in his intimate circle. Later, as the rumors gathered force,
Arafat arranged his pseudo marriage to his gold digging ‘wife’. The CIA had
known about the AIDS for some time and encouraged Israel not to assassinate
him.
This saga reminds me the rumors about the death of another legend - the
Great Communist leader Lenin. When I was living in the Soviet Union, I heard
whispers about the real cause of his death. Only recently, the team of German
doctors reviewed the notes of Lenin’s doctors and they officially confirmed the
rumors - ‘the great leader of the Socialist revolution’ died from syphilis. For
political reasons, this information, as well as, the possible cause of Arafat’s
death has not been covered by international press!
I deliberately put a question mark at the end of the title of this
article. It is not about Arafat’s homosexuality, it is about lack of political
and professional journalistic integrity! Only the release of the official
French doctors’ report will stop to the rumors about Arafat death! Why is this
information still concealed?
