Ahead of the Arab League's conditional
endorsement of direct talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority (PA),
PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas said that he hoped an
agreement would be reached that included the establishment of a PA state within
the 1967 borders with Jerusalem as its capital and a solution to the problem of
the families of Arabs who left Israel when the modern Jewish state was born.
He set a number of “measures and
conditions”, including: "I will never allow a single Israeli to live among
us on Palestinian land”
Abbas has demanded that Israeli
completely freeze construction for Jews in areas east of the 1949 armistice
line, including north, south and east Jerusalem, and that Prime Minister
Binyamin Netanyahu commit to creating a PA state with borders based on the
armistice line. Until those conditions are met, Abbas has said, the PA will not
negotiate.
Abbas said he had discussed the “right of
return” with Olmert, and had warned that the issue
was “very dangerous” and must be resolved “according to the Arab initiative.” (Didn’t Arabs reject the 1949 armistice
line? It was before they invented the fake “Palestinian people”. If Jews are
not allowed to live in Judea, Samaria and Gaza, shouldn’t Israel insist on
removal of all ‘Palestinians’ from Jewish?) He added "I will never agree that there be Jewish
soldiers in NATO, and I will never agree that there will be a single Israeli
among us on Palestinian soil." (And Muslims should not be allowed to serve as NATO or UN
soldiers and step on Jewish soil! It is only fare, isn’t it?)
Food for Thought. Steven Shamrak
I have never seen that
Israel-haters care for producing any evidence to support their bogus anti-Israel
claims. But they are constantly bombarding Jews with the questions only to
brush off our factually based and well prepared answers as irrelevant. They do
it to create an atmosphere of doubt about position of Zionism and make Jews
look apologetic and weak!
Press Cooperates with Arab Aggression. A Lebanon
army's spokesman confirmed Israel's claims that Lebanese forces fired first
during deadly border skirmish. IDF officials said it appears journalists and
photographers were informed of the intended ambush and were deployed to the
site even before the gunfire erupted. Officials said many of the journalists
work for outlets that are affiliated with Hezbollah.
Usual Lies and Blame Game. Egyptian security sources admitted on Wednesday,
that rocket attack on Eilat was launched from within
its territory in the Sinai and blamed a Gaza-based terrorist group, without
identifying it. Other sources identified by Hamas by name. Cairo previously had
claimed that the Katyusha rockets were not fired from
within its borders
No Pressure on White House. The White
House rejected Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's offer for a public debate with Barack Obama.
White House Spokesman Robert Gibbs said that Tehran has not displayed
seriousness on the nuclear issue. (PA has the same insincerity about
peace with Israel! Must Israel continue talking to mortal enemies? The US does
not suffer from this ‘Victim mentality’ syndrome!)
Fake Uproar over Fake Graves. Assistant
Secretary General for Palestinian Affairs Mohamed Sobeih
of the Arab League condemned the digging up of what he said were Muslim graves
in Jerusalem's Mamillah cemetery by Israeli
authorities, ignoring the facts that: the tombstones were brand-new
constructions and were being faked, in an attempt to grab some land from
Independence Park.
Awakening of Israeli Jews from ‘Peace’
Nightmare. A telephone poll broadcast
on Israeli Television's Channel 1 showed the following results: 62% Israeli Jews
oppose additional unilateral withdrawals. 21% were in favour.
No UN Inquiry! A week ago: 1) At least 29 people were killed during violent riots
that took place in Karachi, Pakistan. 2) Five rockets were fired at Israel's
Southern Coastal Resort of Eilat. 3) An explosion
took place in the residence of a senior Hamas terrorist in
Gaza some 15 people were killed and many injured in what is believed
to have been a work accident. 4) An explosives-laden vehicle driven by a
suicide bomber detonated before reaching its target Monday, killing five Afghan
children. 5) The U.S. command in Baghdad "refutes that 535 people were
killed in Iraq during the month of July". It put the total number of
people killed by "enemy action" at 222, including 161 civilians (…and is it OK?)
Another
Humiliating and Useless Meeting. On 1 August
2010, President Shimon Peres and Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak held a
diplomatic working meeting at the Presidential Palace in Cairo. (How many times has Mubarak visited
Jerusalem?)
Grad
Missile Attack on Ashkelon. Last
week the Foreign Ministry instructed Israeli ambassadors to file an immediate
complaint to the president of the UN Security Council and the Human Rights
Council in Geneva. This is “a clear attempt to kill men, women and children and
is a clear violation of international law and sheds light on the murderous,
barbaric and violent intent of the missile attack” (As
usual, no emergency session of the UN security council was called. No media and
political frenzy of condemnation of Hamas actions!) At the same day, a United Nations panel of ‘experts’ has
raised concerns about Israeli discrimination against Palestinians, demanding
Israel stop targeted killings and torture. (Why
is “targeted killing” good tool of war for coalition in Iraq and Afghanistan
but not for Israel? This is discrimination against Israel!)
Where is International Outrage? French President Nikolas Sarkozy
has ordered the expulsion from France of illegal Gypsy immigrants, known as
Roma, and is preparing to demolish thousands of homes, despite growing
accusations that his country is acting racist towards members of Roma.
UN
Provides Financial Support to Terrorists. Senior Hamas commander Issa al-Batran, who taught at a UN school in Al-Bureij,
was killed in an Israeli airstrike that followed a Grad rocket attack on the
city of Ashkelon. While several news outlets reported details of Batran's past, including previous attempts on his life, but
they failed to note his day job as a United Nations-employed schoolteacher.
‘Illegal’ Import of Violence. Police Commissioner of Israel Dudi
Cohen revealed that 10% of murder cases that occurred since the beginning of
2010 involved illegal aliens.
Hypocrisy of the Headlines:
“Passive communicators do not defend their own personal boundaries and thus
allow aggressive people to abuse or manipulate them through fear. Passive
communicators are also typically not likely to risk trying to influence anyone
else. Aggressive people do not respect the personal boundaries of others and
thus are liable to harm others while trying to influence them. A person
communicates assertively by overcoming fear to speak his or her mind or trying
to influence others, but doing so in a way that respects the personal
boundaries of others. Assertive people are also willing to defend themselves
against aggressive incursions” - Assertiveness
vs Aggressiveness and
Passiveness - Unfortunately, Israel has been behaving
as Passive communicator (victim) for too long!
Another Betrayal by ‘Moderate’ Muslim State.
Some
90,000 leaked US military records amount a blow-by-blow account of six years of
the Afghanistan war. The
documents - including classified cables and assessments between military
officers and diplomats - describe the US fears that ally Pakistan's
intelligence service was actually aiding the Afghan insurgency and "allows
representatives of its spy service to meet directly with the Taliban in secret
strategy sessions to organize networks of militant groups that fight against
American soldiers in Afghanistan and even hatch plots to assassinate Afghan
leaders." (This is a well-know secret, but there
is no will to address this issue and no one is protesting the transfer of tens
of billion of the US tax payers’ dollars to Islamic terror sponsoring states
like Pakistan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and other ‘Moderates’!)
