Israeli double-Stabbing of America's Heart

When you give America actionable intelligence, you know that America will act on it. This is what happened when the Israelis told America about an ISIS plan to fill laptops with explosives and use them on airplanes. America responded by banning laptops on flights originating from the Middle East, and then expanded the ban to include some European countries too.

This means that if the intelligence were real and ISIS was doing out of Syria what it did previously out of Yemen when it brought down one airliner, it would have known that its new scheme had been uncovered. It would have taken the necessary steps to protect itself, its people and its scheme. Thus, when the President of the United States later revealed the information to the Russians, he added nothing to what ISIS knew from the moment that America had instituted the ban.

And then something happened in America that looked like the Jewish politico-journalistic toilet had bubbled over, and everyone in journalism and politics rushed to eat from the stuff and regurgitate it like dogs that were not trained to avoid eating the stuff. What happened is that the discussion which Donald Trump had with the Russians in the Oval Office was leaked, and everyone from the Left and from the Right, be they friends or foes of the current White House, expressed their utter dismay that the information was leaked – not to them in the open where ISIS could make use of it – but to the Russians in secret.

What's that about? It's about President Trump's upcoming visit to the Middle East with a stopover in Israel where they had hopes he will announce moving the American embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem in violation of international law. When the White House made clear this was not going to happen, the Israelis and their Jewish cohorts in America, concocted the story about ISIS doing what it had done previously.

But when you look closely at what happened you'll find it was Israel that did what it had done previously … and did it not once but time after time after time. The fact is that Israel is a high speed factory for the fabrication of fake news, misinformation and disinformation, producing the stuff like no one can begin to imagine. In fact, the Jews were the ones who concocted the story of weapons of mass destruction in Iraq ... and look what the result has been, to America, to its allies and to the world. And who benefits from all that horror? You guessed it; it is Israel, always Israel and no one but Israel.

What they are trying to achieve this time in addition to extorting a payment in the form of moving the American embassy to Jerusalem for the fake information they gave, is to cement in the mind of the public the idea that they are indispensable to America. When they learned about what happened in the Oval Office, they ruminated over it for a couple of days, and thought they could gain more than they had bargained for. This is why they leaked the information about the meeting with the Russians. The reality, therefore, is that the Jews have a mole not among the ISIS people, but all over the places in America, including the White House and the CIA.

Whereas the world has always known it is Israel that benefits from the information it steals from America when it conducts such operations as the bombing of the civilian nuclear power station in Iraq, the Jews wish to reverse that perception and make it look like it is America that's benefiting from Israeli intelligence. This is in line with the Jewish genius of getting you to give them the goods, and paying them for it too. That's what they were planning to do with the elements of this latest episode. Will they succeed? Time will tell.

Aside from all that Jewish garbage, the question still lingers: did President Donald Trump do something unprecedented? Well, a lot of people will be surprised to know that Ronald Reagan did something they will consider infinitely more damaging to America than Donald Trump did. Reagan had been elected President but was not yet inaugurated. He began to receive briefings, and he triumphantly told the world about the highest secret America had at the time. It was the development of the stealth warplane. Yes, Reagan did that even before he was President, thus had no authority to declassify the information.

Guess what happened as a result? The Russians rushed to get the American plans for the plane, and developed their own. As to the Chinese, they could not do as well as the Russians or as fast as them. And so they relied on the Israelis to obtain the plans for the stealth warplane, and they developed their own.

There is only one thing Israel and her Jewish cohorts in America are able to do: Stab America in the heart.

America's Obligation is to Prisoners in Israel

If America has any obligation to prisoners in another country or another entity; it is to the Palestinian prisoners who are incarcerated in Israel.

It is that America is financing the continued act of war which is maintained by Israel against the people of Palestine, a condition known as the occupation. Given that resistance to occupation is the duty of every citizen that's able to do his part, every Palestinian that's incarcerated due to his or her participation in the resistance is considered a political prisoner. The jails of Israel are full of those, and America that is the self-declared “no daylight” accomplice, must bear full responsibility.

By contrast, any foreign or domestic prisoner incarcerated in a country that's minding its own business and occupying no one – is a regular prisoner that's no different from the two million or so who are incarcerated in American prisons. By calling regular prisoners in a foreign country political prisoners, you also call those in American prisons, political prisoners. Since no one is supposed to do that, it follows that when the mob of Jewish pundits agitates on behalf of regular prisoners anywhere in the world, it does so to play politics with this sensitive subject. But why does it do it?

The reason why the mob of Jewish pundits plays that game is no mystery. This becomes clear when we realize that the Jews have paralyzed much of America by politicizing many aspects of life in it. They managed to do so by shutting out everyone and monopolizing the debate. They try, at this time, to do the same with the parts of American foreign policy they have not yet monopolized. Here too, their aim is clear: It is that when they paralyze something, they open the door for themselves to get in. Once in, they take over the thing and make it work for them and for Israel. That's what they wish to do with the parts of America's foreign policy that remains out of their reach at this time. It is as simple as that.

You can see how Jackson Diehl is playing his part in that demonic game. He wrote: “How Trump could lead on human rights. Really,” an article that was published on May 14, 2017 in The Washington Post. At a time when thousands of political prisoners in Israel have succeeded to draw world attention to their plight with a hunger strike, Diehl is seeking to deny them the status of political prisoners by bestowing that classification on the regular prisoners elsewhere in the world, including America. In so doing, Diehl has turned reality upside down in a manner that makes “Alice in Wonderland” sound not so curiouser by comparison.

The remaining question which begs an answer is this: What do they call the prisoners in Israeli jails? Believe it or not, they call them terrorists. Why is that? Because they accuse the Palestinians of fighting against the invading force that's occupying their Palestine. Don't you consider this to be odd? Yes indeed; it is odd especially that when the Americans, French, Germans or any of the NATO forces go out of their way to fight for the “freedom” of others, they call the exercise upholding the values of the “free” world. The odd part that's implied by that screwy logic is that you're not supposed to fight for your freedom. You must call on them to fight for you … but you're not supposed to fight for yourself.

Let's see: Did anyone call, terrorist, the French Resistance that was headed by Charles de Gaulle? No; apparently not. Did anyone call the Russian troops that defended Stalingrad, terrorists? No; there is no record of that. Did anyone call Nelson Mandela and his team, terrorists? Only a handful of dogs pretending to be humans. Did anyone call Robert Mugabe and his team, terrorists? Only a handful of hyenas pretending to be human.

Did anyone call General Giap and his army, terrorists? No, because the Americans had not yet been contaminated by the Judeo-Yiddish culture. Did anyone call Winston Churchill and his military, terrorists, for fighting them in the air, on the seas and on the land? Maybe the Nazis did; who knows? Did anyone call the American soldiers who shot at the Japanese planes during the Pearl Harbor blitz, terrorists? The bet is that if you give it enough time, you'll hear the Jews say it.

When you assemble all the pieces of that puzzle, you come out with a picture so bizarre, you cease to wonder why the Jews continue to be the pariahs of the planet. Here is what they want: America must use the “human rights” excuse to go snuff out the lives of others, thus make it easy for Israel to go in and take the spoils. When the survivors fight back – as they surely will – the Jews will want America to think of this as terrorism, and send to Israel gobs of money to “defend” itself.

A potentially fatal Obsession with Iran

America must understand one thing: Whatever the outcome of the adventure she chooses to undertake from here on, she must never again go into a place and wreak havoc to the neighborhood in the belief that she is doing the right thing.

Motivated by that kind of adventurism, America has already brought horror to many places around the world. The sad fact is that not one intervention during the second half of the twentieth century and beyond turned out as hoped for. What happened instead is that things went badly, and America shrugged it off, having adopted the mentality of: Oh well, it didn't work this time, so what! We are big and powerful, and we'll not be called out to account for anything because no one out there is big enough or strong enough to compel us.

Maybe so for now. But the judgment of history can be a cruel thing, especially when things will change – as they always do – and nations will have traded rankings on the totem pole of wealth, power and prestige. To invoke history is to be reminded of the fact that when a price will be paid – as it must be – for the errors committed today, such price will be paid by the children and grandchildren of those who commit today's errors. In short, no adventure that America undertakes today will evade the justice that will be done one way or the other ... today, tomorrow or the day after.

It is time for America to realize that far from acting in accordance with her own free will, she was pushed around by others and sweet-talked into doing the bidding prescribed by those who exploited her in the past, and continue to do so today.

Indeed, it was the British who incited America to unleash a Cold War that forced the Soviet Union to develop a formidable military; a war machine that is still there and still growing. As well, the French incited America to go into Vietnam where she suffered a major military defeat, inflicting scars that continue to affect a large number of people. And the Jews have been inciting America to unleash wars against Arab and Muslim nations with consequences so enormous, we cannot begin to assess them at this time.

And that's not the end of it because the Jews are still there, still inciting America, and still sweet-talking her into doing their bidding for them. Their current obsession is Iran, and they are doing the usual cajoling, sweet-talking and blackmailing of her politicians. They are bribing them as they whisper in their ears the message that America must develop a burning desire to go after Iran. The Jewish goal that's hidden from the American politicians is that of reducing Iran to a size that will allow Israel to feed on the aftermath of the carnage.

You can see how the process of inciting America begins to take root when reading two articles that were written on the same subject and published on the same day, May 12, 2017 in two different publications.

One article came under the title: “Iran Continues to Prop Up the Assad Regime” and the subtitle: “The intelligence chief tells a Senate committee that Iran continues engaging in support for terrorism despite nuclear deal.” It was written by Jenna Lifhits and published in the Weekly Standard.

The other article came under the title: “Iran Refining Nuke Delivery System in Flagrant Violation of Ban” and the subtitle: “Increased ICBM work offers pathway to long-range nuclear weapon.” It was written by Adam Kredo and published in the Washington Free Beacon.

What comes out from the testimony of the “intelligence chief,” as reported by the two publications, is that Iran is doing nothing worse than mind its own business, making impressive advances in science and technology, standing by its allies, and improving its own defenses in view of the fact that naval armadas from several distant countries have come to the neighborhood with the expressed insinuation that “all options are on the table”.

And there lie the two 'forbidden' constructs of (1) a Muslim country making serious advances in science and technology, and (2) developing the will and the means to defend itself – which prompted the Jews to get on the case of Muslim Iran, and stir things up in America to prepare her for the next morbid adventure of attacking Iran.

The concern is that there seems to be enough half-wits in the American Congress who are impressed with what's whispered in their ears, and wish to act on the Jewish recommendations. They clearly ignore that no adventure America will undertake today can evade the justice that will be done one way or the other ... today, tomorrow or the day after.

They are condemning their children and grandchildren to live with the contempt that the world will heap on them for sins they will have inherited from those alive today … the half-wits that have no idea where the Jews are leading them.

Convincing Signs genetic Devolution is real

Increasingly, it looks like Eric Sevareid's observation isn't just a metaphor but a saying that seems to have at least a grain of truth in it.

It is that the late CBS commentator once suggested that when an aberrant culture such as the Mafia, is passed on from generation to generation, it can affect the genetic make-up of its offspring to the point of altering the genetic make-up. Perhaps someone will someday show that one such culture was responsible for creating a generation with a higher IQ than those who begot it. But for now, we seem to have evidence that one such culture was responsible for creating a generation with a lower IQ than those who begot it.

To add to the thousands of examples that were parsed on this website, here is one more that was written by an adult who could not develop a line of thinking coherent enough to make a child proud. It is an article that came under the title: “The Next Failed Peace Talks,” written by Ruthie Blum, and published on May 12, 2017 in Algemeiner. It is worth noting that Ruthie Blum is an editor at the exceedingly backward Gatestone Institute; and that her article was originally published in an Israeli newspaper before its reprint in Algemeiner.

Like all the articles that were written by the mob of Jewish pundits on the subject of President Abbas of the Palestinian Authority meeting with President Trump of the United States to discuss the revival of the Palestine peace talks – Blum's article too crumbles like a house of cards. It happens because all those articles lack the logical skeleton that might have kept them standing.

As suggested in the title of her article – speaking of failed peace talks – Ruthie Blum makes a case for rejecting the premise itself of forging a peace deal with the Palestinians. And she ends the article with this question: “how will Trump respond to the inevitable failure of such negotiations?” It is obvious that she and the other members making up the mob of Jewish pundits do not like the Oslo formula “peace for territory” because they want both for Israel. They believe that the longer Israel can hold on to the land, the greater the chance it will manage to ethnic cleanse it, and ultimately achieve the goal of having its cake and eating it too.

Where the logic of Blum and her comrades disintegrates, is in the attempt to have it both ways not only for Israel, but for them too. That is, they are running two contradictory discourses at the same time in the same breath. They say they want to see peace come to Palestine; they also say they don't want to see peace come to Palestine. But this does not mean they reject peace, they go on to say; it means the Palestinians reject peace.

In case you find it difficult to believe that all Palestinians reject peace, Blum makes it easy for you to believe. She says it is only the Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas that rejects peace. That's because he has a personal reason for rejecting what would have been good for the people of Palestine, the region and the world. And here is the passage that explains it all:

“Trump will learn that his methods will not work. Even a business deal cannot be forged when the true aim of one side is failure. Indeed, it is precisely the lack of Palestinian statehood that has been Abbas' meal ticket internationally –– and the only thing that has kept him the least bit relevant at home”.

So there you have it. Ruthie Blum, like all the members in the infamous mob of Jewish punditry to which she belongs, wants you to believe that in the choice between (1) the Jews rejecting the peace because they want the land with or without the peace, and (2) the Palestinians rejecting the peace because their octogenarian President wants to feel relevant till he dies – you must choose the second proposition.

This said; Blum pretends to have the ability to predict what will spontaneously happen next. Here it is: “[Abbas'] bad-faith negotiations will be marked by and culminate in Palestinian violence.” Which is why she feels compelled to wonder what President Trump will do: “Will he follow in the footsteps of his shameful predecessor and hold Israel responsible, or will he realize he's been duped? Let us hope it is the latter”.

Of course, this is not a supernatural sort of foresight. It's a plan that's incorporated in the Israeli scenario whose aim is to provoke a confrontation with young Palestinians, thus torpedo the peace talks the moment they start to look they might come to a happy conclusion.

The Israelis used this tactic time after time over the decades. As it happens, their preferred method is to send soldiers into the al Aqsa mosque wearing boots, thus anger the young Palestinians who respond noisily but without violence.

This is when the Jewish soldiers will shoot them, kill a few and get CNN's Wolf Blitzer to interview the chief of police in Israel who will say that the Palestinians were responsible. He'll explain that the Palestinians are evil, and they abuse the good nature of the Jews.

Because this is music to Blitzer's ears, he will ask the same question in different ways to get the Israeli to repeat the same answer in different ways. Blitzer will then sum up the discussion by repeating that the Jews are good, and the Palestinians are evil one last time. That's CNN for you.

When you've studied these low IQ and regressing mutants long enough, you'll read them as easily as reading a monkey that’s trying to steal a banana. They'll amuse you and anger you simultaneously.

Hate-filled Cal Thomas is incapable of learning

Until Benjamin Netanyahu or someone representing him gets on the podium at the United Nations and kisses the picture of Hitler – proclaiming that he loves the man despite what he did to the Jews – those who accuse others of hating the Jews prove themselves to be the very definition of hate.

This, in fact, is what Cal Thomas did when he wrote an article under the title: “Will we ever learn?” and the subtitle: “Mahmoud Abbas talks peace but still teaches hatred.” The piece was published on May 8, 2017 in The Washington Times.

Cal Thomas gave himself away through the act of demonstrating how easily he tossed out the most fundamental precept of Christianity – the willingness to forgive – so as to accuse Mahmoud Abbas of harboring hatred for the Jews and lying about it. Thomas is supposed to be a Christian fundamentalist tied to the movement calling itself Evangelical, and yet he is confused about the differences between hate and resentment. This could have happened to him only because he's so full of hate, he is unable to distinguish between two very different sentiments and incapable of learning.

Day in and day out, no matter who we are, we go through life resenting one thing or another – more like resenting a thousand something or a thousand other things in the course of a single day. We may, by force of habit, even say that we hate this or that but in reality, this is not the kind of hatred that Cal Thomas harbors toward the Palestinians, or the kind of sentiment he is expressing.

The Palestinians are a people suffering under the most hideous and most resented kind of occupation the world has ever known, and they have every right to be resentful of what's happening to them; it is only human. What is hate – in fact, hate of the most evil kind – is not what they feel or express; it is what Cal Thomas is saying about them. It is the inability to empathize with human suffering that puts him out of step with Christian life if not human life. Thomas failed the empathy test and in so doing, has proven himself to be not of the human species but something that defines hate itself.

Because an ongoing occupation is an ongoing act of war, to seek the end of occupation is to seek peace. When the President of the Palestinian Authority assured the President of the United States that he and his compatriots raise their children in a culture of peace, he affirmed the desire of everyone to see the occupation of their land come to an end. In fact, that was an exchange which took place between the two presidents. It is also the event that prompted Cal Thomas to do with it what the Jewish Hate And Incitement Machine (JHAIM) does with every innocent utterance – spouted by others – it uses to invoke hate and promote paranoia.

Look how Cal Thomas did that: “The Koran allows Muslims to lie in pursuit of a kingdom ruled by their religion. An example occurred when Mr. Abbas met with Mr. Trump. Abbas said, 'I affirm that we are raising our children in a culture of peace.' That is a flat-out lie.” No, that was not a lie because the truth is that no such passage exists in the Koran. The lie has been to invent false sayings and attribute them to Islam in an attempt to make Judaism look better than the horrific image it projects of itself.

In fact, unlike the Jewish Old Testament which commands the Jews to forever celebrate as Passover the night they murdered the babies of Egypt, looted the homes and temples of the nation and ran into the desert, the Koran – like the Christian bible – preaches peace, tolerance and above all forgiveness. This is something that is alien to the Jews and to those, like Cal Thomas, who come under their influence.

We don't have to wonder if that influence is good, bad or indifferent. It is clearly bad because it robs its victim of the will to think independently, and the ability to learn. As a journalist Thomas has all that he needs to educate himself on what happened in history, and what is happening now. Had he done this, he would not have written the following: “The difference [with Muslims] is that Christians and Jews do not have world domination as their goal and violence as their method”.

If this were true, Netanyahu should have no trouble kissing the picture of Hitler who was not a Muslim but a Christian. Meanwhile, the fastest growing religion today is Islam. That's because in a world where people seek solace in a religion that offers peace, Islam is gaining converts whereas Christianity and Judaism are losing members in droves. Figure that out, Cal.

Here is why America and its Politics are frozen

The suspicion is out there that America's political life at the state and federal levels is paralyzed because the Jews stick their noses into every legislative nook and cranny, and agitate among the political and bureaucratic classes to produce the laws and regulations that serve Israel at the expense of everyone and everything else.

While this state of affairs is irrefutable as evidenced by the laws and regulations which are produced in America and those which are not – there never was a full explanation as to what is said to the politicians in charge of America's business that would cause them to behave so irresponsibly … some would say to the point of criminal dereliction of duty. It is that on command, the politicians automatically and thoughtlessly drop what they do in the service of America and freeze, or drop what they do and take up Israel's business.

Why, for example, do some of the states fail to give their people clean water to drink despite the fact that the children are getting sick and dying? Why do some of the states force their people to buy what Israel produces using slave labor at a time when the people of the state have no use for these products? And why does Washington reduce the programs that feed America's schoolchildren, and then send billions of dollars worth of lethal weapons to Israel? These weapons are used by the local beastly predators to kill Palestinian children and their mothers. Having done this, they steal the land and all that's in it.

Well, believe it or not my friend, there is now an answer to those questions. It came in an article that was written under the title: “The World Didn't Agree to a Nuclear-Armed Iran, Even in 10 years” and the subtitle: “Obama's deal only delayed a showdown. America and its allies should be using the time to prepare.” It was authored by Max Singer of the notorious Hudson Institute, and published on May 10, 2017 in the Wall Street Journal.

The article is about the Iran nuclear deal. This subject is of concern to the world and apparently to Israel as well. America has partnered with the world and negotiated the deal with Iran. It was signed, sealed and delivered, and so the world moved on to other things. But because Israel has a skin in the game according to the Jewish establishment, the importance of the subject matter was inflated way out of proportion. This is why you find Jews like Max Singer get into the business of telling America to drop everything it is doing, and bring the rest of the world with it to start working on ways that will benefit Israel, always Israel and no one but Israel.

Max Singer admits at the start of his article that the agreement with Iran clearly states that Iran “will ensure the exclusively peaceful nature of Iran's nuclear program … Iran reaffirms that under no circumstances will ever seek, develop, or acquire nuclear weapons,” and yet, Singer goes on to tell America and its allies to behave in such manner as to generate the kind of useless haggle that has turned the Jews into the pariahs of the world since the beginning of time. He is, in effect, telling America and its allies how to provoke the Iranians, a surefire way to start a war in the region, something that the world never wants to see again.

But in the event that the Iranians keep their cool even in the face of the Jewish-incited American provocations, Max Singer has worked out a scenario for America to follow … and say yes eventually to the question he asks so brazenly: “What about military force?”

Because as he says, “the problem of stopping Iran is not a legal one,” Max Singer proposes that America and its allies “impose decisive economic sanctions … cutting off communications with the country – flights, telephone, internet, banking” to encourage internal opposition to the regime that “could scare the regime”.

If that doesn't work, he suggests that the military option must be used. But he wants no one to worry about it because “complete destruction of [the facilities] is not necessary,” he says. The reason is that the 'partial' destruction will come with the clear understanding that “they [the Iranians] could be attacked again”.

This is the Jewish plan for America, and like it is said in the subtitle of Singer's article, “America and its allies should be using the time to prepare.” In effect then, our author is telling America to pull its allies tightly into its orbit, freeze everything they do for their people, and devote all their time to serving Israel's interest and no other.

In short, Max Singer the Jew wants America to remain paralyzed when it comes to serving the American people, and get on with the business of preparing to deliver to Israel the proverbial “Iran's head” on a silver platter.

Masters of Ambiguity complaining about Clarity

Ever since the year 1973 when the Israelis got the Egyptian boot up their rear end in the Sinai, and were sent back to where they had come from, they made use of the most developed talent they have to save face and protect what was left of their rear end. They have been fabricating lies to suit every moment.

What suited them at the time, and suited their Jewish cohorts as well as their non-Jewish running dogs, was to sing variations of the refrain: “Never again will someone boot us out of a land we occupy by force of American arms because we now have a homegrown arsenal of nuclear bombs that will send that someone or anyone else for that matter, to kingdom come.” But did they actually use these words? And did they sing?

Not really; they did not use these words and they did not sing. What they did, however, is get the likes of Oliver North to write a novel and go on the Christian Broadcasting Network where he dropped hints to the effect that the novel was based on reality. This cemented the notion in the minds of the gullible that Israel had a nuclear arsenal, and was ready and willing to use it. The Jews also got the likes of Mona Charen to say without hesitation that Israel had many bombs of the mushroom cloud variety; it had them on rockets, and had the rockets in submarines that can sail to Iran and wipe that spot off the face of the Earth.

And of course, there would not be an effective propaganda for Israel without the participation of CNN. Indeed, the Jews use this network like a patient afflicted with diarrhea uses toilet paper. No, they did not rely on Wolf Blitzer this time because they like to keep him in reserve for use in more dire circumstances. What they did instead was to pick someone even more convincing, and had him sing their song. They used Fareed Zakaria, and had him warn his fellow Muslims that Israel was the nuclear superpower that can flatten them like pita bread if they are foolish enough to challenge it.

And each time that an Israeli spokesman was asked if these stories were true, he answered something to the effect that he reserves the right to maintain the silence of ambiguity in matters regarding Israel's nuclear capabilities. So much for the vaunted Jewish clarity.

So think about it, my friend, and ask this question: What would a Jew think if a non-Jew came up with something that defines clarity? You got it; he'll slander the non-Jew no end and tell lies about him. That, in fact, is what you'll find in the article which came under the title: “Fooling many of the people much of the time” and the subtitle: “Hamas, the Muslim Brotherhood and Qatar are all very good at it,” written by Clifford D. May, and published on May 9, 2017 in The Washington Times.

What happened is that the Palestinian group Hamas has undergone the kind of transformation all protest movements experience at some point. The difference is that Hamas got there in record time. Tired of fighting an occupying power that is supported by superpower America and her NATO allies, Hamas signaled its willingness to compromise. It did so by redefining itself using the civilized method of amending its Constitutional Charter.

To respond, Clifford May first slandered Hamas in his article. He then constructed the big lie he believed would make the case for him but did the opposite. To understand how this happens to Jews all the time, we need to recall something about the Jewish character. The best way to do this, is to recall that the Israelis never call an act of aggression they commit against others an act of aggression. They say they were defending themselves. And that's the Orwellian style of communication that Clifford May is using to mutilate history. Here is how he tells that history:

“Hamas says it is willing to accept a provisional Palestinian state within the 1967 lines. Recall how these lines came into being. Israel declared its independence within part of Mandate Palestine, territory the British had taken from the Turks. A chunk became Jordan. The UN proposed dividing the remainder into two states: one Jewish and one Arab. The Israelis said they could live with that. The Arabs said they would not. The armies of Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and Jordan invaded and attempted to destroy the Jewish state. In 1949, the conflict came to a halt. The armistice lines held until 1967 when a second attempt was made to push the Jews into the sea. That effort also failed and the Israelis ended up taking Gaza from Egypt and the West Bank from Jordan”.

First, you don't need to be an expert in that history to see that what Clifford May is telling does not hold. Second, even if you ignore the flaws in the story, you'll find that the logic he uses to justify the occupation and annexation of Palestinian territory would send a criminal to prison for life. It is that his premise is based on the notion that if attacked by A and B and C and D, the Jew has the right to murder E and take his property. He explains that Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and Jordan invaded Palestine, and this gave the Jews the right to murder the Palestinians and take their land.

As to the veracity of the story, for May to suggest that a band of “skin on bones” Holocaust survivors just liberated from the concentration camps of Europe, were able to defeat four Arab armies, is to suggest that the story is fake, or that the Jewish fighters were neither Jewish nor survivors, or that the Arab armies were no armies at all. Take your pick.

But, if you're old enough to remember what was said up until the early 1970s, you'll recall that the Jews were saying seven Arab armies attacked Israel, not just four. They were also saying something else. To justify the Jews taking Palestinian farms, they said that the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem used to urge the Palestinian farmers to run away to the neighboring countries lest they be slaughtered by the advancing Jews. And so, when the Jews stumbled on good arable land with not one soul in it, they walked in and took it. What would you have done?

Finally, Clifford May does something that is new to his style of writing. He says the following, early in the article: “When it comes to Islamists, journalists are losing what George Orwell called the 'constant struggle' to see 'what is in front of one's nose.'” And he ends it like this: “When it comes to Islamists, too many academics gave up the struggle to see what's in front of their noses”.

If you have a hard time making sense of this, replace the word Islamists with “Jewish lobbyists,” and replace the two words journalists and academics with “politicians.” Suddenly, you'll find that the passage is making a whole lot of sense.
