Perverting
the Meaning of "Left" and "Right".
by David
Silon
Barely 24 hours after the
Six Day War, someone, somewhere in Israel gave a new definition to the terms
"left-wing" and "right-wing". This individual stated that
anyone who leaned to the Left supported the Arabs and desired that Israel give
up its Biblical and ancestral heartland, now reunited with the rest of Israel,
or should keep that land until Israel's security is assured. Jews should not
settle on their native ancestral lands and should even question whether these
lands were indeed ancestral. Anyone on the Right believed the complete
opposite.
The result was two
ideologies that pervert the meaning of "Left" and "Right",
with the general public following one perverted ideology or another. In normal
countries, whether in a state of peace or conflict, "Left" and
"Right" are defined by people's opinions on social and economic
issues, not territory. Only in Israel is there a definition like this. This is
something for all Israelis to be ashamed of, regardless of their personal
opinions.
Israel is the ancestral
homeland of the Jews, where they have lived for close to 4,000 years, and there
is nothing wrong with a Jew wishing to live anywhere he chooses in that
homeland. This should be obvious to anyone, regardless of his or her
politics...
The
fact is, the terms "Left" and "Right" as defined by
Israelis pervert the true and only meanings of "Left" and
"Right", as they have been defined by the rest of the world since
time immemorial. The real issue in Israel today (and there are many), is
"anti-Semitism". Anybody can be susceptible to it, whether on the
Left or the Right.
So let's call a duck, a duck
and define the acts of Peace Now, Gush Shalom, ISM, etc. as anti-Semitic (not
leftist) acts performed by anti-Semitic (not leftist) organizations. And please
don't put me in the same category as them. (The writer of this article happens
to be a left-wing secularist.)
Nuclear Test or Bluff? A weekend 5.0 Richter earthquake in Iran was
actually a nuclear bomb test, says an Iranian nuclear scientist claiming to be
working on the project.
Food for Thought: There is
definitely something wrong with a government which cares more about enemies
than its own population! - Steven Shamrak
IDF Arms were Stolen by Bedouins. Police detained four suspects, including a soldier
after the search of a house in the Bedouin community of Segev Shalom,
outside Be'er Sheva. Detectives found explosives, an M-16 machine gun and a
handgun. Police suspect that the machine gun was used in a shooting in the
town. (So much for Bedouins’ loyalty to Israel!)
Issue of
'Humanitarian' Cement. Hamas government in Gaza is exploiting
humanitarianaid, as shipments of cement, to build underground tunnels,
ammunition bunkers and command centers. Hamas's underground city copies the
system used by Hizbullah in the Second Lebanon War against Israel. Many of the
tunnels are filled with explosives that can be detonated by remote control
devices and cause the collapse of roads which IDF convoys might use. Hundreds
of Katyusha and Kassam rocket launchers have been also placed underground.
Democracy in
Afghanistan?
The sentence of a 24-year-old student in Afghanistan found guilty of insulting
Islam during a university class has been ''lightened''. After writing a paper
critical of his religion and asking ''impertinent'' questions about the status
of women, the student will not be given the death sentence but rather 20 years
in solitary confinement. (How long does it take to
realise that it is impossible to cure this illness, which has spread through
most Muslim countries, by the use of blindly politically correct policies?)
Quote
of the Week: “Those who
think that ‘Jewish money’ plays the key role (in the perceived US support of Israel) forget that
few countries have more money than oil-rich Arab nations that also lobby
heavily in Washington.” - Frida Ghitis (Miami Herald) – The
Islamic states also are buying support using money and oil, or by using
blackmail by terrorism against all member states of the United Nations!
Iranian Nuclear Bomb by
February 2009. US intelligence’s amended estimate, that Iran will be ready to build
its first bomb just one month after the next US president is sworn in. The
information prompted the assertion by Democratic vice presidential nominee
Joseph Biden in Seattle Sunday, Oct. 19 that: “It will not be six months before
the world tests Barack Obama like they did John Kennedy.” McCain retorted on
Tuesday, Oct. 21: “America does not need a president that needs to be tested.
I’ve been tested. I was aboard the Enterprise off the coast of Cuba. I’ve been
there.” (Must Israel wait or rely on the inaction of
the US? We can all see how successful it is in Afghanistan and Iraq!)
Prisoner
Release.
Three months after his release from an Israeli jail in a prisoner swap, former
prisoner in Israel Samir Qantar says he is more than ever committed to working
to wipe the Jewish state off the map. "As long as there is something
called Israel in this region, the resistance must continue ... I am ready to take
part in any resistance mission." (There is only
one way to end 'resistance' - Send them all out from Jewish land!)
Better 60 Years
Late than Never. The German
government transfered to the Yad Vashem Memorial Foundation in Jerusalem a
quantity of files on 600,000 Jews living in
German from 1933 to 1944. The files contain details on their arrests,
deportations and deaths.
Obama
Conspiracy - Fixed Game!
by Steven
Shamrak
Americans are
now in a fixed election game; who to choose as the new president of the United
States? Question are not asked why these particular candidates had been chosen for the voters
by interest groups, with the carefully preserved ‘appearance’ of a democratic
selection process, as was routinely done during previous presidential elections,
with a complete disregard to their personal qualities. However, stranger things
are happening during this election.
For the sake of
democracy and the rule of law, whatever is left of them, shouldn't American
voters at least wonder whether Obama actually is a natural-born U.S. citizen
and if so, why he has not allowed access to his original birth records and
proof of his American citizenship? Why is no one from the press, which has an
obligation to inform people about the truth and uphold American values,
demanding scrutiny of: Obama's extensive connections with Islam (nothing wrong
with him being Muslim, but why does he deny that he grew up as one) and
representatives of radical politics; who and why had financed his education in
Harvard and why records are sealed?
According to a
number of sources, Obama was really born in the Coast Provincial General
Hospital at Mombassa, Kenya at 7.24 p, on August 4th, 1961. If Barack Obama was born in the state of
Hawaii in 1961, as his defenders claim, why is it so difficult to produce the
original certificate in a proper legal manner and not an allegedly faked image
of the Hawaii certificate, bearing the name Barack Hussein Obama II? Why are
the records of his birth sealed in Hawaii and Kenya? What is he hiding?
"Nothing is more important than
enforcing the Constitution," Philip J. Berg, Democrat, a former deputy
attorney general for Pennsylvania said. "The Constitution's provisions are
very small for qualifying for president. One, be over 35, and he is. Two, be in
the country 14 years, and he has been. Three, be a natural-born citizen. He is
not." There should be a government document affirming Obama’s citizenship,
but that also cannot be found. If that was not processed properly, Berg said,
Obama would be in a situation even worse than not being a natural-born citizen.
"If he didn't go through immigration, he now is illegal and has been an
illegal alien. He couldn't even hold the position of senator for
Illinois," Berg said.
Since Obama has not actually answered the
allegations, submitted to US court, within 30 days, according to Rule 36, Obama
has legally admitted that he is not a natural-born citizen! It's possible
that for failing to produce the birth certificate, Obama will have to step
aside, even after being elected as president. Does anyone care? Please, check it
before casting your vote! Otherwise, if Obama is elected, it could be
challenged as illegal presidency!
Footnotes: 1. According to a recent Zogby poll: Among white voters, McCain leads by a 53% to 41% margin. Among Hispanics, Obama leads, 66% to 28%, and among African Americans, Obama wins 88% to McCain’s 9%. So just who is being racist? 2. For the record, I do not support either McCain or Obama as the next president of the United State.
