Europe Learned Nothing from the Holocaust

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu on Wednesday decried the decision by the European Union to remove Hamas from its list of terrorist organizations, while expressing appreciation to the United States for what he called a “true friendship.” Netanyahu contrasted the two relationships at a meeting with Senator-elect Joni Ernst (R-Iowa), who is in Israel on a visit…

"The friendship of the people of the United States of America with Israel stands in sharp contrast with what we see unfortunately in Europe,” Netanyahu said. “In Geneva they call for the investigation of Israel for war crimes, while in Luxemburg the European Court removed Hamas from the list of terrorist organizations, the same Hamas that has committed countless war crimes and countless terror acts.”...

“It seems that too many in Europe, on whose soil six million Jews were slaughtered, have learned nothing. But we in Israel, we have learned,” Netanyahu said. “We will continue to defend our people and our state against the forces of terror, tyranny and hypocrisy.”

The controversial decision (removed from the Europe terrorism blacklist) was followed just hours later by an equally controversial vote at the European Parliament in favor of recognizing "Palestine" as a state.

Lawmakers approved the motion by 498 votes to 88 with 111 abstentions, although it was a watered down version of an original motion which had urged EU member states to recognize a Palestinian state unconditionally. (The only thing Europe learned since the Holocaust is that it doesn't look good if they admit they want to kill Jews, but they can try to kill Judaism - shechita, bris milah. Now, Europe is helping others, invented Palestinians, to kill Jews. It hasn't changed!)

 

Happy Hanukah!

Hanukah is the only Jewish spiritual and national holiday.

It commemorates the freedom of Eretz-Israel, the Land of Israel, and the

Jewish national liberation struggle - Zionism!

Anti-Semitic Europe at its Best!

A European court ruled that Hamas, whose charter vows genocide against Israelis and who launched over 3,500 rockets at Israeli civilians over the summer during Operation Protective Edge, should be temporarily removed from the bloc's terrorism blacklist.

EU Got Proof that Hamas is a Terror Group

Rocket attack on Friday proved delibarate 'mistake' of EU removal of Hamas from terror list. "This morning the Europeans received more proof that Hamas is a terrorist organization… the rocket that Hamas fired at Israel proves again to European countries that they don't need to wait for any check as to whether Hamas is a terrorist organization, if anyone still had a doubt about it they received their answer now with the (rocket) firing." said Former Deputy Defense Minister Danny Danon.

Food for Thought by Steven Shamrak

An international support for Palestine, state of the fake people, is an anti-Semitic Stunt! Only $150 million out of $2.7 billion pledged by international anti-Semitic bigots for reconstruction of Gaza had materialized. They do not care about welfare of the nation which was invented by Arab states and the Soviet Union - the prime objective is to achieve demise of the Jewish state!

'United' Enemies

Mahmoud Abbas has said he supported Egypt's crackdown on tunnels linking the Hamas-controlled Gaza Strip to the Sinai Peninsula. The Egyptian military has stepped up the destruction of tunnels from Gaza that it says are used by the Palestinian movement to smuggle arms, food and money. The army says it has destroyed more than 1,600 such tunnels since Morsi was overthrown. Egypt has also begun setting up a buffer zone along its border with the Gaza Strip, which will see hundreds of homes demolished, in order to prevent fighter infiltration and arms smuggling. (The Abbas government is illegitimate - an election is long overdue, and the majority of the so-called Palestinians support Hamas! Israel needs to learn from Egypt how to deal with the enemies swiftly!)

 

Vatican Has no Moral Standards - Just an Anti-Semitic One

A gathering of Nobel peace prize laureates opened in Rome, overshadowed by a dispute with the Vatican over reports that Pope Francis had refused to grant an audience to the Dalai Lama, the 1989 laureate, for fear of offending China. (Pope Francis had no problem with offending Israel when he met Abbas during an audience in the Vatican! When the Pope decided to fly directly from Jordan to Bethlehem without landing at Israel's Ben Gurion airport, it was being perceived by the fake Palestinians as recognition of sorts for an independent state. When Pope Francis prayed at the anti-terror barrier on his way to a mass in Bethlehem it was a deliberate anti-Israel provocation and insult!)

Islamic Dictatorship - The best Friend of USA!

Unconfirmed reports of a new decree imposing the death penalty on anyone caught smuggling Bibles into Saudi Arabia has many Christian ministries and support groups on edge. Practicing any religion other than Islam has long been illegal in the desert kingdom, and that includes rules against foreigners bringing in any type of religious material that does not conform to the royal family’s strict Wahhabi brand of Sunni Islam.

Internet is about Quality not Quantity and Shopping

Fewer Israeli adults and youth use the Internet relative to the average OECD country. Israel also falls short of the average on online shopping. The data for Israel was not broken down by demographic, and it is likely that the lag in Internet usage and connectivity is concentrated within the ultra-Orthodox sector, where Internet usage is often shunned, and the Arab sector. Israeli children accessed the Internet earlier than in most OECD countries. When it came to business research and development in information industries, Israel stood out above every other country, even beating out research-heavy South Korea.

Islamic Criminality is on the rise in Europe

The crime rate among Muslims in the West is catastrophically high. Seven out of 10 inmates in Danish youth prisons have immigrant backgrounds, and almost all of them are raised in Muslim families. One very big difference between Muslims and Westerners concerns their views of anger. In our Western culture, anger is generally seen as a sign of weakness and lack of control and good style. Muslims see it as signs of weakness.

Anti-Semitic Bigotry Defeated in Poland

Polish Jews will resume practicing shechita (ritual slaughter) immediately, following a decision by that country’s Constitutional Court to overturn a ban on the biblical practice. (The attempt to ban shechita was a part of well-orchestrated and deliberate anti-Semitic smear campaign in Europe!)

"Gimmick" of Another Fake Peace Plan

Israel says a Palestinian effort to set a three-year deadline for it to end its occupation of Palestinian territories is a "gimmick". A draft resolution, submitted by Jordan to the UN Security Council, also calls for a peace accord within a year. Jordan has indicated it will not seek a quick vote, opening the way for further discussion.

Quote of the Week:

Egypt's crackdown in Sinai once again exposes the double standards of the international community toward the war on terrorism. While it is fine for Egypt to demolish hundreds of houses and forcibly transfer thousands of people in the name of the war on terrorism, Israel is not allowed to fire back at those who launch rockets and missiles at its civilians.” - Khaled Abu Toameh

Yasser Arafat - KGB Connection

by Ion Mihai Pacepa

Before I defected to America from Romania, leaving my post as chief of Romanian intelligence, I was responsible for giving Arafat about $200,000 in laundered cash every month throughout the 1970s. I also sent two cargo planes to Beirut a week, stuffed with uniforms and supplies. Other Soviet bloc states did much the same....

I was given the KGB's "personal file" on Arafat. He was an Egyptian bourgeois turned into a devoted Marxist by KGB foreign intelligence. The KGB had trained him at its Balashikha special-ops school east of Moscow and in the mid-1960s decided to groom him as the future PLO leader. First, the KGB destroyed the official records of Arafat's birth in Cairo, replacing them with fictitious documents saying that he had been born in Jerusalem and was therefore a Palestinian by birth.

The KGB's disinformation department then went to work on Arafat's four-page tract called "Falastinuna" (Our Palestine), turning it into a 48-page monthly magazine for the Palestinian terrorist organization al-Fatah. Arafat had headed al-Fatah since 1957. The KGB distributed it throughout the Arab world and in West Germany, which in those days played host to many Palestinian students....

Arafat was an important undercover operative for the KGB. Right after the 1967 Six Day Arab-Israeli war, Moscow got him appointed to chairman of the PLO. Egyptian ruler Gamal Abdel Nasser, a Soviet puppet, proposed the appointment. In 1969 the KGB asked Arafat to declare war on American "imperial-Zionism" during the first summit of the Black Terrorist International, a neo-Fascist pro-Palestine organization financed by the KGB and Libya's Moammar Gadhafi. It appealed to him so much, Arafat later claimed to have invented the imperial-Zionist battle cry. But in fact, "imperial-Zionism" was a Moscow invention, a modern adaptation of the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion," and long a favorite tool of Russian intelligence to foment ethnic hatred. The KGB always regarded anti-Semitism plus anti-imperialism as a rich source of anti-Americanism....

In March 1978 I secretly brought Arafat to Bucharest for final instruction on how to behave in Washington. "You simply have to keep on pretending that you'll break with terrorism and that you'll recognize Israel -- over, and over, and over," Ceausescu told him for the umpteenth time....

Note: Mr. Pacepa was the highest ranking intelligence officer ever to have defected from the former Soviet bloc.
