The E-mail below was sent from the so-called “Israel”, the Jewish Agency, the fraud “State” established by an illegal promise over the land of Palestine authored in 1917 by Arthur James Balfour, a rapacious British conservative politician and statesman. The sender of the e-mail is an IDF soldier Idan Tal (עידן טל), who wanted to make himself important by bullying and taking part in bloody massacres, ethnic cleansing, and crimes against humanity which the Zionist organization “israel” commits against the Palestinian people since over 63 years of Nazi zionist occupation of the Palestinian homeland. In the threat that Idan sent me threatens to burn my family. It is herewith returned to him and to his zionist state, his words are nothing but rubbish which will not shake one hair on my head, it only serves to expose him and all the israeli garbage as what they are.

A Cold-blooded Execution

[use Open Image in New Window to see picture in full enlarged]

From left: Lt. Col. Guy Hazut, Major General Avi Mizrahi, Brig. Gen. Nitzan Alon, and Brig. Gen. Yoav “Polly” Mordechai.

Troops of the Israeli occupation war criminals Lt. Col. Guy Hazut, (סא”ל גיא חזות), Major General Avi Mizrahi, (אלוף אבי מזרחי), Brig. Gen. Nitzan Alon, (תא”ל. תא”ל אלון ניצן), and Brig. Gen. Yoav “Polly” Mordechai (אלוף יואב (פולי) מרדכי), murdered in cold blood the elderly Palestinian Omar Salim al-Qawasmi, 66, at dawn of last Friday. They smashed his head to pieces while he was sleeping in bed in his house at Haret Al- Sheikh in the center of Hebron. Lt. Col. Hazut, the so-called military brigadier of the IDF in Hebron was with his bloodthirsty death squads when they murdered Al-Qawasmi. This war crime was perpetrated during the raid on the house of Al-Qawasmi where a political leader, one of six Palestinians who had been released from the PA jail the day before, rented an apartment in the first floor of the victim’s house.

Sobheye al- Qawasme’s, the victim’s wife, said that she did not know how the IDF soldiers broke into their home. “I was praying at dawn when that the IDF soldiers broke into our house. I don’t know how they opened the door. Suddenly I saw the soldiers closing my mouth and pointing their guns to my head. I was shocked. I asked them, “What are you doing?” They ordered me to shut up and took me to another room under threats of shooting me in head. My paralyzed child was also in this room and very frightened”.

“I saw many soldiers break into the room where my husband was sleeping. I heard bombs and several shots inside the room. When the occupation soldiers left, I went to the room, I saw that the head of my husband was broken and smashed into several pieces, his brain was out, and his blood was spilled in bed. He was swimming in a pool of blood.”

Omar Salim al-Qawasmi, 66, a victim of the commonaders seen in the picture above.

During the IDF raid, they arrested the neighbor of Al-Qawasmeh, Wael Mahmoud Said al-Bitar, a Palestinian activist who was one of six political prisoners released by the Palestinian jailers on the previous day. Al- Bitar lives with his family in a rented apartment in the first floor of the same house of Al-Qawasme.

Security Coordination and a Cold-blooded Execution

Five of the political activists had been jailed at the Jericho prison during so-called “security” coordination between the traitors of the PA and the occupation after some jewish colonists were killed in September 2010 near Bni Neam village near Hebron. The prisoners were tortured and denied family visits. They went on hunger strike for over 45 days, demanding to be moved to Hebron so that their families could visit them. The Palestinian media was censored by the PA and did not report about the hunger strike and the deteriorated health of the prisoners.

Finally, a campaign of spying between the Palestinian security and the Israeli occupation, in which the PA decided to release the political activists (a trick) so that the IDF war criminals could proceed to arrest or execute them. During the campaign between the Israeli war criminals and their friends, PA traitors, the prisoner’s interrogation files were submitted to the Israeli occupation. On last Thursday the Palestinian authority implemented the first part of their deceptive campaign and released the prisoners.

The dirty mission was implemented by the PA, whose officials who stated on Thursday that Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas had ordered the release of the six prisoners after direct appeal from the Emir of Qatar and because the president wanted to end this issue of the political prisoners once and for ever.

The Palestinian “security” organization at jail forced those prisoners who were released and their families to sign a pledge according to which they bear responsibility for their own safety after their release.

This dirty act of treachery between the PA and the colonial israeli zionist occupation, President Mahmoud Abbas and his traitors used the arrest of the activists who were released and then arrested by the Israel as a justification to keep three thousand more political activists in jail, among then teachers, engineers, doctors, professors, youths and elderly. The PA in all seriousness claims that the jailing of political activists is some kind of “protection” from the Israeli occupation.

Sobheye al- Qawasme's, the victim's wife is shocked in her bed room.

Hamas accuses the PA of jailing and torturing 3000 of its elements at its prisons, which previously were jails of the occupation. On the other hand, Fatah accuses Hamas of arresting its political elements in the Gaza. Fatah issued a statement warning of “the risk of death threats” to the lives of its militant activists who went on hunger strike in centers of torture of Hamas in the Gaza Strip.

It must also be noted that the Committee of the Palestinian Prisoners Relatives, a group of relatives of the abductees in the prisons of the Palestinian Authority in the occupied territories in the West Bank, released a statement accusing Mr. Majed Faraj, chief of the General Intelligence of the Palestinian Authority, which is under the authority of President Mahmoud Abbas, of calling the wives of the prisoners to his office and abusing them sexually and extorting sexual favors from them in exchange of promises to release their husbands or commuting the sentences issued against them by military courts, or for permission to visit the husband.

I was direct witness of one such case and I know that it is usual procedure by PA police or jail officers to extort sexual favors from relatives of prisoners, especially if the women are young and beautiful.

Fatah appealed in a statement issued in the second of this month for the intervention of Palestinian national groups, personalities, independent Palestinians, and human rights and international organizations to put an end to the repressive measures against the political activists in the centers of torture belong to Hamas and asked them to work to release them all.

Fatah stated that six of its activists had entered a hunger strike since three days, claiming that the prisoners already suffered poor and deteriorated health conditions as a result of torture and the daily violations of their rights at the centers of torture affiliated to Hamas.

Fatah stated that “Hamas” is fully responsible for the lives of their detainees. Fatah added that the detainees fall under the risk of “double death”, as a result their deteriorated health due to torture and the continued hunger strike, in addition of leaving them held in places which could be bombed at anytime by the Israeli occupation.

It is truly disgusting to see to what level the PA has learned the arts of whining and lying from their jewish masters. It is disgusting to see the abject levels of betrayal of these brown-nosers who have no compunction in setting up a situation where it people get murdered. With the murder of Omar Al-Qawasmeh by Hazut and his henchmen, it has become clear that the PA has become more jewish than the jews, more zionist than their zionist masters, and equally devoid of humanity and honor.

Protest Before The US Residence In Israel

[use Open Image in New Window to see pictures in full enlarged]

James B Cunningham, US ambassador to Israel

Hundreds of Israeli and International Peace activist’s demonstrated last Saturday, Jan. 1 2011 in Tel Aviv in front of the residence of James B Cunningham, the US Ambassador to Israel, and in front of the Israeli war ministry, the so-called Israeli “defense” ministry. The demo erupted in the wake of the murder of Palestinian woman Jawaher Abu Rahmah, 36, from Bilin, with a toxic tear gas grenade made in USA and donated to Israel in order to suppress the peaceful demonstrations against the apartheid wall which Israel continues to build on Palestinian agricultural lands in a violation of a decision issued by the international court of justice in The Hague.

In front of the American’s Ambassador’s house, the demonstrators chanted against the massive US weapon donations to Israel which has resulted in the murder of many Palestinian civilians in their own homeland. The demonstrators returned all empty toxic tear gas canisters which had been shot last Friday Dec. 31 2010 by the Israeli soldiers into a peace demo where several international peace activists took part next to the Palestinians to protest against the theft of their lands in Bilin north of the West Bank, and which lead to the murder of Abu Rahma. The protesters chanted loudly demanding that the American Ambassador send those empty tears gas canisters back to his country, and to stop supplying Israel with weapons.

In front of the Israeli war ministry headquarters in Tel Aviv, the demonstrators asked for the arrest of the soldiers who murdered the Palestinian woman Jawaher. They blocked the street and later eight of them were arrested. The Israeli police arrested in total 11 Israeli peace activists, among them two old women aged over 65. The police accused the activists of “carrying illegal weapons” (the empty tear gas canisters made in USA and shot by the IDF in Bilin against the peace demo), “resisting arrest”, “violating laws”, “causing trouble” and “disturbing the public order”. The activists were transferred to the Tel Aviv jail. Later some of them were released on condition to come before the judge on the second day.

The demo before the US ambassadors residence and the Israeli war ministry were not the only ones. Several demonstrations and vigils were held in many cities and towns around the world. Jawaher Abu Rahma, 36, died on the morning of Jan. 1, 2011, hours after inhaling tear gas at a peace demo in Bilin.

A toxic tear gas grenade made in USA and donated to Israel

Yesterday, Sunday Jan. 2 2011, a Palestinian youth aged 21, a university student who also worked as a farmer during his holidays, was murdered at 7am at the Al-Hamra checkpoint near Nablus. The victim was shot several bullets in his chest, arm and leg by the IDF soldier who clashed with him, insulting his dignity because he had asked a female soldier about the reason for stopping him and delaying his access at the checkpoint without reasons. The man was carrying a glass bottle that the soldiers “believed he was planning to use to stab them”. No soldiers were injured in the incident.

A Girls Dream Crashes Against The Cruelty Of Life

[use Open Image in New Window to see pictures in full enlarged]

Education is a human right guaranteed by international covenants. Specifically, the right to education is enshrined in Article 26 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and Article 13 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights . However, this right means almost nothing for females in Palestine. In poor countries and those governed by traditional men societies, education remains a right only for the women from a certain class, the daughters of the ruling and the rich families of that country and society. This right to education remains an illusion and encircled in taboos for females of poor households, is one such society.

Article 26 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights

In the Palestinian West Bank, which remains under the Israeli occupation and is ruled on its behalf by the Palestinian Authority (PA), the females of poor families face discrimination in the field of education, regardless the financial support of the international community and international institutions given to the Palestinian Authority to subvention higher education. The monies given by international funds usually serve the sons and the relatives of the persons in power in Fatah, most of who attend universities and receive higher education in the EU and the USA. Few chances remain for the females of the poor class to receive the financial support for their education which the children of the PA receive.

In Palestine nobody cares about the tears of the girls, nobody listen to the voice of the poor people who have no voice and are not engaged in politics. In Palestine, females are the weakest part of the society, which is controlled by men in patriarchal fashion inside and outside the family, and by the political-religious groups as well non-political religious groups next to the PA, groups where females are clearly far away from the decision centers and of any political status.

In general, the decisions over the fate and future of females is a prerogative of the family, the fathers, brothers and the male relatives, especially in those families which live in rural communities, in the small towns and villages of Palestine.

Overall, the vast majority of Palestinians, especially in the south, in the Hebron district, believes that the appropriate place for women is at home, and they find a husband for their females early on. The Intifada uprisings and the poverty experienced by about 65 percent of the Palestinian people helped to increase the influence of radical religious groups and to promote the wrong and destructive concepts which these groups promote about women. The things became even worse for Palestinian women because the opinion became prevalent that the right age for the females to marry is between 14-18 years or at most after finishing school. After this age, women are seen as spinsters, what mean that they become “old” and not good for marriage. Under the scandalous theories of men, the new husbands, (especially the educated ones), begin the race for the selection of their wives under the age of eighteen. The prospective grooms start looking for girls who are beautiful and young, the only qualification asked from the girls to become the partner.

Article 13 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights

The price for the widespread phenomenon of marriage at an early age in Palestine is a divorce rate which has exploded. The beautiful young wives become divorced after a year or two. These girls become unfit for marriage in the eyes of society, and they become a new problem in their families, and to society, which looks askance at the fatherless families of these divorced women.

A Girl Rebels Against The Injustice Of The Cruelty Of Life in Hebron and Appeals to Continue Her Education as a Student of Law

Hanin as the child.

Last Thursday morning, my handy rang. Calling me was a girl from Hebron whose family I know. I remember the girl and her family well. I still remember the toys of this blond girl while she was playing in the gardens in the neighborhood of my mother’s house. I know her father and mother. I knew her sisters and her brothers too. They all were children under the age of 10 when I last saw them. They inherited the white skin and the blond hair from their parents. Her family was never interested in politics or in political parties, like the one of third of the Palestinians who ONLY seeks a stable life and putting bread in the mouth of their children.

The name of the girl who called me is Hanin, what mean “yearning”, “longing”, “loving”. Hanin was crying bitterly. She is not a child anymore, she is 18 years old. Last year she finished her secondary school. She received 87 points of 100 in the general school certificate examinations at the literature section of the secondary school.

Hanin told me while crying: “I want to be a strong woman like you”. I asked her if she want to be a journalist. She said “no, journalism did not exist as a woman profession in Hebron after you left. I want to be a lawyer, my way and future are in studying at the university and protecting myself from the injustice of society. I love the law and I don’t want to marry and then divorce like other girls. I want to defend these girls who are divorced”.

She asked me what she can do in order to attend university. “My father cut me from studying at the Open University after one year of learning Business and Administration. My father is jobless most of the time. He works some months in the year, and stays the rest without work”.

Hanin asked me to help her to study law at the University, she asked me for support. She was very scared that her father will force her to marry a wealth man because of her beauty. She repeated several times “I do not want to marry, I want to study, but I am forced to stay at home. My life has turned hell since three months. Since my father is not able to pay for my study, he forces me to sit at home. I am very scared that I will be forced to marry anybody”.

“Since three months I am sitting at home” Hanin said, “but my desire of being a lawyer has grown more and more inside me. Why should I stay at home? Why should I not study law? Why should I marry and bury my desire and will? Why is my father poor? Who can help me or give me wise advice?” I heard many questions from Hanin, but I was not able to answer even one.

Hanin cried again and said: “My parents are fighting all the time because of me. My father sold my mothers gold to feed us, but not for my study at the university. Last week my father thought of divorcing my mother. This could be a disaster for our family. I am forced to be quite, but I am not able to forget my dream of being a lawyer”.

Appeal To The Director Of OFID in Vienna

Hanin asked me to send an appeal on her behalf to all international organizations which support the right of women to education and to all persons who support the rights of females to study. One such organization is the OFID, which funds education for Palestinians and also works through the UN. Hanin, who holds a UN refugee card but has never, received any support from the UN, asked to put her appeal in my words.

Dear Dr. Suleiman Al-Herbish,
Director-General of the OPEC Fund for International Development (OFID).

Dr. Suleiman Al-Herbish

I don’t know you, but I have been told about the kind help which your organization gives to Palestinians in the field of education.

I am a Palestinian girl from Hebron in the southern West Bank. I am 18 years old, I finished secondary school successfully and received 87 points of 100 in the general school certificate examinations.

I want to study law in order to be able to defend myself and the Palestinian girls who have successfully finished their secondary studies but are forced to marry because of their family’s mentality.

Many of these girls end up divorcing after a short time, and I do not wish to follow this path in life.

My father finished secondary school. He is the owner of a small hand work business, but he is jobless most of the year like hundreds of thousands of Palestinians, due to the Israeli occupation and economic blockade. My mother is a simple woman with only basic school, she is completely dependent on my father.

I respectfully appeal to you for your support and advice to help me attend University so that I can study law. I believe strongly that higher education is a kind of protection for women, and that a University certificate is strong weapon for women who could face the injustice of a hard life under the Israeli occupation.

I do not want to grow to become a weak and dependent woman like my mother is now, or like the too many weak women in our Palestinian society.

Thank you,

Hanin

---

Note: This article was published before contacting Dr. Al-Herbish because of the New Year holidays. As soon as possible the appeal will be submitted to the right address. I will updated this article whenever I receive an answer from Dr. Al-Herbish, or any other person.

I know the full name of Hanin and have the contact information of her family phone in Hebron, and I can put you in contact with her family. Hanin’s family does not have Internet at home, and they do not have an e-mail address. Hanin speaks Arabic. Her father speaks Arabic and very little English. I will be able to translate any answers to this girl between English and Arabic.

I had a chance to talk with her father, who was very calm as in know him before, but he was very sad of his awful situation. He promised me not to force his daughter to marry anybody as a solution to his financial problems. He is very sad of the deteriorated situation of all Palestinians. He suffers because of his daughter pain, but still with cuffed hands, and does not know what to do.

A Woman Killed By Gas Grenade

A Palestinian woman, Jawaher Abu Rahma, 36, died today in Ramallah’s hospital after she inhaled toxic tear gas (a much stronger version than used in the West and with unknown chemicals added) during a peace demo against the apartheid wall in Bilin. Her brother, Bassam Abu Rahma was killed in Bilin two years ago after being deliberately shot with a gas grenade by IDF soldiers under the command of Lieutenant colonel Aviv Reshef (or Reshev) (אלוף משנה אביב רשף), the former brigadier of the Israeli occupation in Ramallah.

Her other brother, Ashraf Abu-Rahma, 27, a well known peace activist, was shot on July 7 2008 after being arrested and while his hands were cuffed by an IDF soldier under the command of lieutenant-colonel Omri Burberg.

The Palestinian doctors said that Abu Rahma was admitted suffering from blood poisoning and did not respond to treatment. After a long night the doctors were forced to pronounce her dead today morning.

Below is a video of the demonstration where Jawaher was injured

Questions About Your Mother

If you saw criminal thugs hitting and dragging your mother as seen in the picture below, what would you do? What would you do if your government defended such criminals, even ordered them to steal everything from your family and mistreat your mother like that during Christmas? What would you suggest should be done to protect this woman from the thugs?

Ethnic cleansing: Israeli soldiers (border police) beating and dragging a Palestinian woman while colonist pigs enjoy the spectacle. Picture Credit: AFP

The picture is from yesterday in the Al-Walajeh village north-west of the occupied Palestinian city of Bethlehem, where Jesus was born. Al-Walajeh is a peaceful beautiful village that is slated for ethnic cleansing (for the second time) under the full protection of the USA and the EU.

It is worth mentioning that the European Union decided the day before yesterday to provide one hundred million euros as a support to the so-called “Palestinian National Authority, PA” under the Israeli military occupation. So that the PA continues playing the game of useless negotiations and protecting the security of Israel. While the European Union’s rejected a few days before announcing a Palestinian demand for supporting a declaration of a Palestinian State on the borders of June 1967, saying that his declaration will come at the “right” time, this means after the year 124 of the Israeli occupation.

Let Us Sing Beautiful Songs

[use Open Image in New Window to see pictures in full enlarged]

Gaza Today

Here is Palestine… steadfast, silent, blocked, lonely, and forgotten by all, except her good friends, her people miss freedom, her children dream of blue shinning sky without any planes which make sky black, and convert their sweet homes to small stones..
They look to their blue beautiful sea when Israeli Warships color it to red, They are saying goodbye to there small trees before it swapped by occupation, they kiss everything by there eye before it disappeared and evaporates by Israeli tank shells, they remember there friend’s, dad’s, mum’s, brother’s, sister’s faces that were here and gone forever in the crazy war game.
Don’t they deserve life?!, homes?, freedom?, nor hope??
Don’t they deserve rights!, or even good Future ?
Don’t they deserve to sing with free children Freedom songs?
Lets work together hand by hand to achieve there sweet dreams,.

WILL COME: words by Joe Fallisi, on the air of Amazing Grace, music by anonymous

Will come, yes freedom will come,
The land we love will see us again.
We didn’t suffer in vain,
Oh mother we come back to you.

Oh Palestine in our heart you shine,
You, love burning star!…
Zionists, oppressors, tyrants will fall.
Freedom will come.

Oh brothers Jews do live with us.
Ours will be one country.
The new humanity will have
Justice, equality together.

OH MOTHER PALESTINE: a song to Gaza, words by Joe Fallisi, translated by Alexander Synge, based on the aria Fenesta ca lucive, music by Vincenzo Bellini – Baranzate, 13 September 2009

Oh Mother Palestine, you who burn,
I see you how you suffer in desperation.

A thousand lights soar into the skies,
The searing flames and the soul raped.

This is our country, tyrants away!
No more shall we be snared by your falsity.

By night the brigands came,
Tearing our hearts from the land.

The sky turned pale, white,
A rain of death in a lightning flash.

All mankind wept,
Hands were stained with blood.

Olive groves, the sweetest of seas, garlands, friends
Our roots, the immortal soul.

WILL WE EVER SEE: words by Joe Fallisi, translated by Alexander Synge, musical motif: “Come on in my kitchen” by Robert Johnson – Baranzate, 13 November 2009

Will we ever see Sun-morning?
I don’t know why, you’re close.
You shine in my heart’s night
But noboby can see you.

As in a book already written
But in a language nobody knows,
You’re waiting pure eyes and till then
You stay locked in the mistery,
In your mistery.
You’re waiting pure eyes and till then
You stay locked in the mistery,
Yes, yes in your mistery.

Will we ever see Sun-morning?
I don’t know why, you’re close.
You shine in my heart’s night
But noboby can see you.

ONE MINUTE: a song to the martyrs of the Mavi Marmara, who ascended to heaven on 31 May 2010. Words and music by Joe Fallisi, translation by Alexander Synge – Athens, 23 May 2010, Istanbul, 3 June 2010

Gaza, flower of Palestine,
See the waves of the morning,
Nine ships you shall watch as they enter
By the doors of your sea.

We left from Ireland,
Italy, Holland.
Great heart of Turkey,
Greece, Sweden and Algeria.

Free Gaza, Ramallah, Jenin,
Jerusalem, Hebron, Bethlehem,
Nablus, Qualquilla, Tulkarem, Bil’in,
Jerico, Yāfā, Haifa, Deir Yassin!

Free Gaza, Ramallah, Jenin,
Jerusalem, Hebron, Bethlehem,
Nablus, Qualquilla, Tulkarem, Bil’in,
Jerico, Yāfā, Haifa, Deir Yassin!

A thousand bright stars
In the sky above, still twinkling…
Dolphins are our travel mates
And the smiles of the children.

One minute Mr Peres,
Says Erdogan as he rises,
No more crimes or wars,
The injustices shall end.

Free Gaza, Ramallah, Jenin,
Jerusalem, Hebron, Bethlehem,
Nablus, Qualquilla, Tulkarem, Bil’in,
Jerico, Yāfā, Haifa, Deir Yassin!

Free Gaza, Ramallah, Jenin,
Jerusalem, Hebron, Bethlehem,
Nablus, Qualquilla, Tulkarem, Bil’in,
Jerico, Yāfā, Haifa, Deir Yassin!

Into the squares, bathed
In the light of a summer dawn,
Come the elderly and the very young,
Mums and grannies and their neighbours.

Together to the port they go,
Eyes fixed upon the horizon,
As the sea breezes
Scatter pearls on their brows.

Free Gaza, Ramallah, Jenin,
Jerusalem, Hebron, Bethlehem,
Nablus, Qualquilla, Tulkarem, Bil’in,
Jerico, Yāfā, Haifa, Deir Yassin!

Free Gaza, Ramallah, Jenin,
Jerusalem, Hebron, Bethlehem,
Nablus, Qualquilla, Tulkarem, Bil’in,
Jerico, Yāfā, Haifa, Deir Yassin!

Free Gaza, Ramallah, Jenin,
Jerusalem, Hebron, Bethlehem,
Nablus, Qualquilla, Tulkarem, Bil’in,
Jerico, Yāfā, Haifa, Deir Yassin!

Merry Christmas in Video

From Rabi Bashour – In this time of year, people around the world celebrate the birth of Jesus in Bethlehem Palestine. They celebrate a birth that was meant to propagate a set of ideals to make the world a better place. 2010 years later, that same birthplace is plagued by a regime that practices the exact opposite of those ideals. Bethlehem is surrounded by a racist wall of biblical proportions, by regime which is racist to biblical proportions. Yet people celebrate.

The people of Palestine also celebrate. They need to, as any other people would need to celebrate. After all it is the season to make exceptions. In this season, people make exceptions when it comes to their spending, to their diets, to the way they treat each other. So it is only logical to make an exception by putting an effort for the land, the homes and people of the birthplace of Christmas… for justice in Palestine see the video below.

The video includes these subtitles

ON HIS BIRTHDAY IN 2010

ONE CAN ONLY WONDER

IF HE WAS HERE TODAY

WHAT WOULD HE SAY

HE MAY ASK HIM NOT TO THROW THAT STONE

HE MAY ASK HER TO TURN THE LEFT CHEEK

BUT AFTER HE SEES THIS THIS AND THAT

HE WOULD CRY IN ANGER AND DISMAY

THIS IS MY HOME

THINGS HAVE GONE ASTRAY

HOW CAN THIS INJUSTICE BE?

IN THIS LAND

UNDER THIS TREE

HE WOULD ASK HIM TO BE PATIENT

HE WOULD ASK HER NOT TO LOSE HOPE

HE WOULD ASK THEM TO PERSEVERE

O PEOPLE OF PALESTINE

THOU SHALT NOT DESPAIR

THOU SHALT NOT SURRENDER

FOR LOVE, JUSTICE AND PEACE

FOR ME

YOU SHALL PREVAIL

End The Spread Of The Zionist Cancer In Palestine

[use Open Image in New Window to see pictures in full enlarged]

Mahmoud Abbas, Palestinian President

The jewish colonies are spreading like a cancer in Palestine. This malignant disease must be eradicated for ever from all Palestinian territories. 62 years of Nakbah are enough, and the time has come to throw the violent and antisocial jewish colonists out of Palestine, in accordance with Security Council resolutions 242 and 383, and not in accordance with the US zionists Senate decisions. Negotiations on UN resolutions 242 383 and others, a “peace process” which includes the continuous expansion of jewish cancer in Palestine, are not appropriate. Enough is enough. It is clear that the US will never bring us Palestinians any kind of justice, or a State – the government of USA, after all, is not even able to solve the problems of their own country. The USA is nothing but an accomplice to a criminal occupation which wants to bring us even more calamities on top of the past 62 years of Nakbah and over 23 years of “negotiations” with the zionists.

Today, Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas asked Riyad Mansour, the representative of Palestine at the United Nations, to go “immediately” to the UN Security Council to ask for the passing of a resolution condemning the jewish colonies in West Bank and East Jerusalem, and calling upon Israel to immediately halt settlement land theft activity, which is criminal and contrary to the international law. The demand of President Abbas came after the Arab foreign ministers rejected further Palestinian-Israeli peace talks without any serious offer from the US on end the Middle East conflict, and after the US reneged once again its responsibility to announce a condemnation of the jewish settlements in West Bank territories as an obstacle which blocks the way of so called “peace process”.

According to reports by the French agency AFP, the US House of Representatives approved yesterday a resolution which opposes any “unilateral measures” to declare or recognize a Palestinian state without backing a negotiated solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. (This means that the US zionists are adding another measure of genocide to their filthy history of war crimes and crimes against all humanity, which this time could threaten the security of not only the Palestinians and the Israelis but of all neighboring countries in the Middle East).

The disgusting declaration of the US House of Representatives is a natural reaction of this entity, wholly subjugated by zionist interests, to Brazil, and later Argentina and Uruguay recognizing in early December a Palestinian state within the 1967 borders, the boundaries that existed before Israel captured and occupied the West Bank and Gaza Strip. The US House of Representatives urgently needs to understand that their intervention is highly undesirable in Palestine. Those incompetent kleptocrats should solve the problems of their own country instead of aggravating them by sticking their noses into issues which are none of their business.

President Abbas and the PA have been accused and criticized in the past for their obsequious and collaborative posture vis-a-vis the occupation and the Americans, often enough by myself. Looking at the activity of the PA with more distance it becomes obvious that the PA never had the power to resist the demands of the occupation. Abbas and his people did everything to accommodate the demands of the israelis and the Americans, and despite this, all what he got was insults and betrayal by his supposed “negotiation” partners.

Despite all criticism and doubts, Abbas is the only President we have, and to the outside world he still represents us; the constant stream of insults and filth thrown at President Abbas and the PA by the Americans and the israelis was filth thrown upon all Palestinians, and in view of all what has transcended, it has become time, and I repeat this, to stop all negotiations.

Many reasons exist to stop all negotiations with the israelis. The jews have demonstrated in 63 years that they act in bad faith, constantly and without exception. Furthermore, the jews have no claim before international law, to any part of Palestine. All their claims rest either upon colonial diktat, upon scams like the Balfour declaration and on their sham “declaration of independence” of 1948. In the same way as these European freaks, I could now go to the city and “declare” that St. Stephens Cathedral belongs to me. Lets also not forget their “god told us so” story, which sounds very similar to what so many benighted inhabitants of mental institutions around the world have to tell.

It is important also to clarify the confusion around the “settlements”, the jewish colonies in the West Bank. While the “state of israel” supports them formally, they are a purely American construct. Most of the 500.000 or so squatters in the West Bank are American citizens, followed by Canadians and citizens of other english-speaking countries (In the same way, the given-up colonies in Gaza were occupied predominantly by French citizens). This fact, together with the attitude of the USA House of Representatives, demonstrates that it is the USA which is inserting its citizens in occupied territories in clear contravention to the Geneva Conventions and to its own laws.

The USA (and other countries like Canada, the UK, Australia, Germany, …) owes us reparations, and they must initiate the repatriation of this population of terrorists and with few exceptions criminally insane individuals. I suggest that the PA speaks, not “negotiates”, with the so-called “quartet” that it is expected from them to do exactly this: a) repatriate their citizens and b) pay reparations to everybody who was in any way damaged by the presence of their citizens in our country. Europeans should be especially receptive to such ideas, as there is a constant increase in the talk about expelling criminal foreigners and even those who do not integrate well into these countries.

More important still is that Palestinians of all factions, religious or secular, bury our differences and think about effective strategies aimed at eradicating the jewish cancer from all of Palestine. If we want our country back, we will have to think, together, about what is best done. In all cases an increase in political activism is needed. We must make use of the sympathy which we have in many corners of the world, and we must also use the antipathy which the jews have brought upon themselves almost universally because of their crimes against us.

All activity and activism aimed at eradicating the jews from Palestine should be planned with the knowledge that the jews have influence only within the narrow confines of the governments which they have infiltrated or bought, the finance world, and the giant multinational companies. These three, governments, finance and international predatory capital are increasingly being seen as a problem by peoples around the world. Secondly, the USA, while still a military giant, is a crumbling, underdeveloped country with few isles of relative wealth – the USA by far does not have the power which their attitude suggests. Openly opposing them and facing them down should bring ample benefits in the political arena to anybody doing so.

Finally, it should be increasingly clear to the world that the continued existence of israel as a subject of international law is deeply undesirable, more so, extremely dangerous to all humanity. While the fan club of israel speaks of a supposed “right to exist” of their genocidal entity, they seem to not understand that a “right to exist” of a state at once does not exist in international law, and it is irrelevant in practice. The international community of states is a rough neighborhood, and the only “right to exist” of any state rests in how agreeable it is to its neighbors and the community of nations at large. Israel has been a constant problem to everybody during all of its short existence.

It exports terrorism and genocide, it has an almost undisputed worldwide monopoly over the market of synthetic drugs like ecstasy, it is a hub for organ harvesting around the world, as the recent case involving Hashim Thaci case shows, it is a refuge for terrorists, criminals and outlaws from anywhere as long as they claim to be jewish, it is constantly involved in wars with its neighbors or preparing wars, it subverts all attempts of countries to find common grounds in international humanitarian law. Adding to its criminal existence the recent declarations of certain highly respected rabbis to the effect that humanity only exists to serve the jews (which went uncontested from either religious or worldly authorities), israel must be characterized as “Hostis humani generis” (enemy of mankind), and only as such.

There is a very simple political and peaceful way to neutralize and eradicate israel from all of Palestine, which could also be of immense material profit to all nations which would support such ends. It depends on the leaderships of countries simply helping us to get back our rights.
