The jihad against Israel has been waged for 75 years now, and longer than that, as it began before the founding of the modern state of Israel. It is discussed in the Palestinian National Charter, the Hamas Charter, and the founding documents of Fatah. Yet the willfully blind continue to ignore it. Propagandists on the […]
UNRWA’S Ever-Expanding List of ‘Refugees’
The Palestinians are indeed the most privileged and cosseted of all the hundreds of millions of refugees created in the world since 1945. For every other refugee community in the world, the only people who count as “refugees” are those who actually leave, flee, or are expelled from their country of origin. The children of […]
How the BBC’s Yolande Knell Covered an Accidental Killing by the IDF
Like the Guardian, the New York Times, and the Washington Post, the BCC reports on Israel and the Palestinians in a manner that must please the rais in Ramallah, Mahmoud Abbas. More on the latest example of anti-Israel bias at Bush House can be found here: “BBC Distorts Accidental Palestinian Death to Attack Israel,” by Hadar Sela, […]
Homesh and the ‘Two-State Solution’
Homesh is an Israeli outpost that was founded some 20 years ago on the West Bank. It had been built on land that, it later turned out, was owned by a Palestinian Arab. In 2005, when the Israelis pulled out entirely from Gaza, uprooting 25 settlements, they also pulled out of four settlements in the […]
Antony Blinken At AIPAC Deeply Disappoints
On June 5 Antony Blinken spoke at the annual meeting of AIPAC, the pro-Israel lobbying group, where some of his remarks, beyond the bromides about America’s commitment to Israel’s security being ironclad, and the unconvincing assurance that Washington will “never allow Iran to acquire nuclear weapons” were most disturbing. More on his appearance can be […]
Muslim who murdered three Israeli border guards was carrying a Qur’an
The Jerusalem Post headline here is “Egyptian border terrorist was carrying Koran, likely motivated by extremism.” Yet the Qur’an is the holy book of Islam. All Muslims regard it as holy. So how is this jihadi’s possession of it “extremism”? Even when the Jerusalem Post is confronted with clear evidence of the mainstream character of […]
Remember the ‘Nakba’? No, Remember the ‘Miracle’
The miracle took place 75 years ago, on a sliver of dusty and desolate land, just beginning to show the regreenment created by its Zionist pioneers. The miracle was the birth, against all odds, of the State of Israel. It was a difficult delivery. The Palestinians, and many other Arabs, have been trying ever since […]
Mahmoud Abbas’ sour stemwinder at the UN General Assembly
In his sour stemwinder at the UN General Assembly, as part of its observance of Nakba Day on May 15, Mahmoud Abbas likened Israel to Nazi propaganda chief Joseph Goebbels, in its use of the big lie which, if repeated often enough, begins to be believed. What were those “ big lies” told by Israel […]
Israel: Victim of Sbarro pizzeria jihad massacre dies after 22 years in coma
“Palestinian” jihadis regard this wanton massacre of innocent civilians with considerable pride. Ahlam Tamimi is a hero in Jordan and all over the Islamic world, which is why Jordan won’t extradite her: if it did, it would face riots and possibly even uprisings. “Israeli Sbarro bombing victim dies after 22 years in coma,” by Lahav […]
Let’s Not Repeat ‘Nakba Day’
Mahmoud Abbas, President for Life of the Palestinian Authority, strutted his poor hour upon the stage – twice the time he was allotted – at the UN on May 15, to observe what he and an army of Palestinian publicists want us to call “Nakba Day.” “Nakba” means “catastrophe” in Arabic; the catastrophe in question […]
