A message from a ‘friendly’ Islamic reader:

believe that Jews will leave
Answer: Dear Cherifa, It seems that you have completely ‘forgotten’ that
it was Arab leaders who had urged Muslims, in order to ease the planned
slaughter of the Jews, to leave
You have also conveniently
forgotten about the higher taxes Jews paid in the Islamic world, as we did in
Christian kingdoms. The practice of abduction of Jewish orphans, even if they
had living relatives, and housing them with Muslim families has also eluded
your memory.
I can see that history does
not impress you, but you refuse to look at the present treatment of Jews in

need in order to live in peace on Jewish land in their own country!

Faking
The Quest for a Greater Israel.

(Another subliminally,
anti-Israel article published by major UK paper)
It was Israel’s stunning
military victory over its Arab enemies in 1967 that opened up Judea and Samaria
– the Hebrew names for the West Bank and the heart of the biblical land of
Israel ("the cradle of the nation") for settlement by Jews. (Let’s not forget that in 1922 the League of Nations
designated all of the Palestinian Mandate, including Transjordan, to the creation
of the Jewish state, Eretz-Israel!)
In the background, Naomi Shemer,
Israel's Vera Lynn, sang her haunting anthem "Jerusalem of Gold" – in
a euphoric and for some almost messianic atmosphere in which peace with the
newly occupied Palestinians was barely considered. (Beautiful song! But,
what peace? Have those so-called Palestinians ever wanted peace with Israel?)
The idea of "Greater
Israel" (more accurately the "whole land of Israel") appealed to
both religious and secular rightwing nationalists who sought to fulfil divine
commandments about the "beginning of redemption", as well as create
"facts on the ground" to enhance Israel's security. (and fulfilling the 2000 years’ dream of the Jewish people
to be reunited in their G-d given land!)
Settler ideology made the
sanctity of the land a central tenet and effectively turned the Palestinians
into aliens on their own soil. (Rightfully so; most of them
moved to Eretz-Israel during past 120 years in order
to prevent the establishment of the Jewish state. This policy was encouraged by
the Turks first and later adopted by British.)
Weeks after the war the first
settlers came to Kfar Etzion near Bethlehem, where Jews had lived before 1948;
at Passover 1968 others moved "temporarily" to Hebron, where members
of the Orthodox Jewish community were massacred during the British mandate
period. (and conveniently for the Arabs from
where Jews had been moved out by the British! Those systematic pogroms of Jews
throughout the Palestinian mandate, including
Under the Labor governments that
ruled Israel for the first decade of the occupation 30 settlements housing
5,000 people were established for "security reasons". (Under pressure from international, anti-Semitic hypocrisy,
Israel, due to a lack of self respect, is forced to make up justifications to
moves toward reclaiming Jewish land.)
When Menachem Begin's rightwing
Likud, allied with religious nationalist parties, came to power in 1977 the
effort moved far deeper into the West Bank. The settlements "were intended
to prevent the partition of the country based on the principle of two states
for two peoples," says Israel's Peace Now Movement. (Jewish people must stop our own traitors from sabotaging our
national dream. It is time to end the delusion of a so-called peace process
with our enemies, whose goal is the destruction of
