Obama demonstrated his arrogance and UNlove for Israel and the Jews in his shallow AIPAC speech…I like the opinion piece at www.pajamjasmedia.com by Barry Rubin….Obama sat on world TV stony-faced and icy eyes while Netanyahu explained the ABCs of Israel’s last chance to survive the Arab campaign to “rid the Mideast of Jews”, and how Obama’s insistence on 1967 borders and a “contiguous state for Palestine” would trigger the final Holocaust for Jewish Israel.If the USA won’t help Israel, I know the God of the Bible will!and Woe to those who do hurt to the Jews….Gen.12:3.
He went before AIPAC and stated the same things without “interpretation” from the “religious right” and “media”. Everyone since Balfour and the Peel Commission knew that both sides had a right to a “homeland”, and had to have a fair and equal say, if there was to ever be “peace”, and that included a shared administration of Jerusalem. Likud and the ultra-right wingers and the most radical Zionists have never been ready to accept that, subjugating the original inhabitants of the land, and creating ever more strife and anger with THEIR refusal to actually address the one KEY ISSUE- JERUSALEM! Which also happens to be where the silly “religious” takes over from the tribal arguments.
Its OK to go back to Egypt now, because it is no longer populated by ancient Egyptians and ruled by an intolerant Pharaoh, but rather by multiculture embracing Muslim Arabs . . . . led by . . . . well, we will find out . . . . someday . . . .
1. When was the country of “Palestine” founded and by whom?
2. What were its borders?
3. What was its capital?
4. What were its major cities?
5. Name at least one “Palestinian leader” before Arafat.
6. What was the language of the “Country of Palestine”?
7. What was the prevalent religion of the “Ancient Country of Palestine”?
8. What was the name of its currency?
9. Choose any date in history and tell what was the approximate exchange rate of the “Palestinian” monetary unit against the US dollar, German mark, GB pound, Japanese yen, or Chinese yuan on that date.
10. Since there is no such country of “Palestine” today, what caused its demise and when did it occur?
11. Why did “The Palestinians” never try to become independent until after the devastating defeat of invading Arab states in the 1967 six day war?
This is the most spot on political commentary I have seen in awhile. America needs to understand that Israel is pursuing a RELIGEOUS path that will not change. After all, God has spoken. What our relationship with Israel will be should at least be made with the reality that war and land acquisition is number one on the Israelis to-do list.
1. I’m pretty sure the Israelies know the way to Egypt. They were just there about 44 years ago. The Egyptians did not enjoy the experience.2. The fundamental problem is none of the parties concerned want an equitable solution. Neither the Israelies, the Palestinians, nor their lackeys – the Republicans – want a solution that does not give them a total victory. 3. All parties concerned have for years enjoyed playing the martyr role.
Netanyahu’s parents were POLISH- he is sabra- EDUCATED IN THE UNITED STATES— how is he more “Palestinian” than someone whose family has been on the land for 30-40 generations??
