It is harder to make peace than war!
When I was in Israel supervising the building of the hotel
across from Jerusalem ’s Jaffa gate in 1995. The Oslo agreement was implemented. There was
euphoria in the air. Many companies and individuals were talking and ready to
invest billions of dollars. I myself contacted some investors to invest in
building an automobile manufacturing plant which would create jobs and have a locally
manufactured automobile at a much more reasonable price. All that faded as soon
as the suicide bombers started blowing up busses on Jaffa road in Jerusalem . Talking peace, signing peace agreements
and living in peace and coexistence are two different things. There are
external powers that do not want peace in Israel . That has been going on since the end of
WWI. If you know, or anybody knows a way how to overcome it and bring peace and
coexistence in Israel , I would love to promote it. It is unfortunate,
that you have the Arab leadership for over the past 3 generations promoting
terror and violence and educating their children and the masses to commit
terror and violence, while celebrating terror attacks, suicide bombers and
financing terrorists. You are banging your head against the wall. It has to
start with a change in the mindset and the education of the children and the
masses to live in peace.
The Arabs have to
prove that they truly want peace. Israel will need to see years of non-violence and
peaceful coexistence, prior to resuming peace talks. Furthermore, the world at
large must stay out of it, let the Israelis and Arabs work it out without
external involvement. Then you night have a chance for coexistence.

Jewish roots and rights to all the land
of Greater Israel
are stronger than ever!
“If
I am turned out of hearth and home and remain outside one night, I am legally
entitled to return the following day. If I suffer for ten, twenty, five
thousand or fifty thousand nights, does my right of return stand in inverse
relationship to the length of my exile? Quite the contrary; my right to return
and recover my freedom becomes stronger in direct proportion to what I have
endured, not by virtue of some abstract arithmetic, but because of the nights
spent in exile, and because I want my children, to be spared a similar
experience.”

If you feel it is moral to express your sympathy for those Arabs who colonized and occupy all but a sliver of land in the Middle East, those who stone women to death, execute gays and rape little children? Those who kill people indiscriminately, suicide bombers, teach hate and violence to their children! If you believe that making Judaism illegal in every Arab country is OK? Really? The Arabs have also forced most Christians out of their countries. You leave me no choice then, but to assess you moral indignation as meaningless lawless revolting and vile. I laugh in astonishment at what hypocrites and naked bigots you are. Read and study history objectively. The Arab-Palestinians are the occupiers, the Israelis are the liberators of their own land.
ReplyDeleteAccording to official Arab statistics, over 989,000 Jews were forced out of their homes in Arab countries from 1948 until the early 1970’s. Some 690,000 resettled in Israel, leaving behind personal property valued today at more than a trillion dollars. Jewish-owned real-estate forced to leave behind in Arab lands has been estimated at 120,000 square kilometers (six times the size of the State of Israel). Valued today in the trillions of dollars.
Does anyone think that after the Ottoman Empire surrendered and relinquished its rights title and ownership to Palestine and other territories to the Allied powers after WWI, Thus, the Supreme Allied powers set up and established 21 Arab States and one Jewish State in all of historic Palestine.
The 21 Arab State do not want to relinquish or redraw its boundaries and Israel does not want to concede any of its original boundaries set up in 1920 which included the Palestine Mandate. None of the Palestinian Mandate was allocated to the Arabs in the 1920 San Remo Treaty. That also included the Faisal Weizmann Agreement of 1919. The U.N. and the other countries must take into account and address the expulsion of over a million Jewish people from the Arab countries and the confiscation of homes and land owned by Jewish people in the Arab countries, totaling 120,000 sq. km. (6 times the size of Israel) valued in the trillions of dollars and other personal assets confiscated by the Arabs countries totaling over a trillion dollars.
The Jewish people resettled the million Jewish refugees and their children from the Arab countries. It is about time the Arab countries who expelled the million Jewish people and confiscated their land and assets, must settle the Arab-Palestinian refugees once and for all without compromising Israel and bring about peace and tranquility to the region.
The Arab/Palestinian Terrorists aka "Palestinians"
ReplyDeleteIsrael is at war for its very survival. Our enemies are sociopaths, pathological liars. There is absolutely no way to negotiate a "peace" with them, because PEACE is the antithesis of what they aim for.
The irony is that when they do tell the truth, people all over the world, including Israel interpret their words into a very PC politically correct distortion. The truth is that the two main so-called Palestinian sic "political groups," Hamas and Fatah are really the same in terms of ideology. They both promote terror against Israel and Jews. They have no desire to live in peace with the State of Israel. When they express support for the "two state solution" it is to create such a weakened Israel that totally destroying it, Gd forbid, wouldn't be a problem.
You cannot make peace with people who promote terror and violence, teach their children from childhood to hate and become suicide bombers.
It is time to expel the Arabs to where they came from, the neighboring Arab countries including resettle them on the 75,000 sq. mi. of Jewish owned land confiscated by the Arab countries when they expelled over a million Jewish families, and that includes Jordan which is 80% Arab/Palestinians.
NO JEW HAS THE RIGHT TO GIVE UP
(Eretz Yisrael) THE LAND OF ISRAEL
By David Ben Gurion
“No Jew has the right to yield the rights of the Jewish People in Israel. No Jew has the authority to do so. No Jewish body has the authority to do so. Not even the entire Jewish People alive today has the right to yield any part of Israel.
It is the right of the Jewish People over the generations, a right that under no conditions can be cancelled. Even if Jews during a specific period proclaim they are relinquishing this right, they have neither the power nor the authority to deny it to future generations. No concession of this type is binding or obligates the Jewish People.
Our right to the country – the entire country – exists as an eternal right, and we shall not yield this historic right until its full and complete redemption is realized.”
This quotation of David Ben Gurion made at the Zionist Congress in Basel, Switzerland in 1937, more than 65 years ago.
Luxury resort opens in Gaza, which could be ‘uninhabitable’ within five years, says the UN

THE manicured lawns, sparkling pools and luxury suites are a striking contrast to its war-ravaged surroundings.
The picture-perfect Blue Beach Resort is now open for business in Gaza — a distraught region so struggling to recover from recent conflicts the United Nations this week warned it would become “uninhabitable” in just five years.
But this Gaza City resort has been barely affected by ongoing tensions between Palestine and Israel.
Built by the Palestine Real Estate Investment Company, it is “specifically designed to be the ideal escape for family vacations and for recreational and relaxation purposes, away from the daily life hustle and bustle”, according to the website.
It boasts 152 chalets overlooking the Mediterranean Sea, 600 sq meters of lush green areas, two swimming pools, a jacuzzi, top-class restaurants, a video and games room and access to a 750-metre private beach.

And it seems to be proving popular. Guests who fork out $AU141 to $AU226 a night to stay in one of its luxurious rooms are leaving mostly positive reviews about their experience on Trip Advisor, praising the resort’s “outstanding” service, cleanliness, seaside views and the high quality of its restaurants.
The resort was originally due to be completed last year but plans stalled with the outbreak of the 50-day war between Palestine and Israel, Reuters reported.
And it is among a few luxuries still heartily enjoyed by Gaza’s small but resilient middle class, along with exclusive gyms, expensive cars and fine dining establishments, a report last month by the Washington Post revealed.

While Blue Beach Resort’s seaside paradise is thriving, the same can’t be said for the rest of the region.
Gaza is plagued by a crumbling economy, rampant unemployment, widespread food insecurity and the destruction of vital infrastructure, according to a damning report by the UN Conference on Trade and Development released this week.
It is also in a state of de-development — a process where development is not just hindered, but actually in reverse.
The report blamed Gaza’s grim future on Israel’s eight-year blockade and three Israeli-Palestinian wars in six years. It warned international aid could not sufficiently help the region recover, and if current trends continued, Gaza would be uninhabitable by 2020.

“The social, health and security-related ramifications of the high population density and overcrowding are among the factors that may render Gaza unlivable by 2020,” the report read.

It added: “Short of ending the blockade, donor aid ... will not reverse the ongoing de-development and impoverishment in Gaza.”
Gaza, squeezed between Israel, Egypt and the Mediterranean Sea, is one of the most overcrowded territories on earth, home to 1.8 million people.
It has been the centre of intense fighting for decades, including last year’s conflict which killed 2131 (mostly civilian) Palestinians, displaced half a million people and left Gaza in ruins. The conflict also killed 71 Israelis.
The UN report said more than 20,000 Palestinian homes had been destroyed in last year’s military action, along with 148 schools and 60 hospitals and healthcare centres. Almost 250 factories, 300 commercial centres and Gaza’s sole power plant had been left either destroyed or badly damaged, and the agriculture sector suffered $550 million in damages.
The war “has effectively eliminated what was left of the middle class, sending almost all of the population into destitution and dependence on international humanitarian aid,” the UN report says.
But it is the economic blockade of Gaza by Israel and Egypt, which started when Islamic militant group Hamas seized control of the territory in 2007, that is further crippling the region, the report said.
Now, exports from Gaza have almost been completely stopped, imports and cash transfers have been limited and the flow of basic humanitarian goods suspended.

About 72 per cent of Gaza households are affected by food insecurity and more than 850,000 Palestinian refugees — about half of Gaza’s population — are completely reliant on food from UN agencies.
A staggering 95 per cent of water in the region is not safe to drink and there is a “severe” electricity crisis.
The blockade is also preventing essential work on rebuilding the war-ravaged territory, with only 27 per cent of the $3.5 billion in aid pledged last year towards Gaza’s recovery materialising, according to an April report from Oxfam. As a result, none of Gaza’s destroyed homes have been rebuilt.
Last year unemployment in Gaza climbed to a record high of 44 per cent, with four in five women out of work. Its per capita gross domestic product has slumped to 30 per cent since 1994. And the region will be put under even more strain, with the UN predicting its population to climb to 2.1 million by 2020.
The report comes as Egyptian military bulldozers pressed ahead with a project that would effectively flood the last remaining cross-border underground smuggling tunnels between Egypt and Gaza, which had been bringing commercial items and weapons into the struggling region.
