Guest Post: LESSONS LEARNED FROM TRAGEDY

LESSONS LEARNED FROM TRAGEDY
a guest post by Mr. Cohen

“Reb Zecharia, like so many of his contemporaries,
worked for a time in a sweatshop.

The shop he worked in, making pocketbooks, was
located in a building just east of Washington Square,
site of the ill-fated Triangle Shirtwaist Company. 

On the Saturday of the great fire in 1911 that
engulfed the building and killed 145 workers,
Reb Zecharia was at home.  It was the Jewish Sabbath. 

He learned two lessons from this: he vowed that
his children would never become factory workers
and he vowed that they would never work on the Sabbath.”

CHRONOLOGY:
Zecharia Derschowitz moved from Galicia to the USA in 1888 CE. 
He was the great-grandfather of Alan M. Dershowitz.

COMPLETE TRANSCRIPT OF:

<i>Boo Hoo Palestine</i>
by Pat Condell, 2014 October 20
SOURCE: www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvTgqBluojM

“Despite the recent enthusiasm we have seen in the West for recognizing the non-existent country of Palestine, the much-vaunted Two-State-Solution is a fantasy, that has no chance of leading to peace; because the Palestinians, or to use the correct term, Arabs, have proven beyond any doubt that they are not negotiating in good faith, that they cannot be trusted to keep their word, and that any agreement they sign will be worthless.”

“They initiate all the violence in the region, and they break every cease-fire, because they do not want negotiations or a Two-State-Solution, and they are not even keeping it a secret. They keep telling us: they want a One-State-Solution with no Israel and no Jews; and they pledged to never stop fighting until that day comes; both Hamas and the supposedly-moderate Fatah [PLO]; and we have no excuse for not listening.

But we will find one, as usual, won’t we?”

“Any agreement they do sign will be simply a stepping-stone to a better vantage-point from which to attack and destroy Israel; every Arab knows this is true. So any future Palestinian State will be like Gaza is today: a racist-apartheid state, devoid of Jews on pain-of-death; and a launch-pad for daily rocket-attacks on Israeli civilians, until the Israelis finally lose patience and retaliate, and the world condemns them as Nazis.”

“The pattern has been set:
Palestinian terrorism is always rewarded, and that it why it never stops.
And we in the West are helping to bankroll it; we can’t throw enough money their way. So much money that the leaders of Hamas, supposedly former refugees, are personal billionaires, while the people they claim to represent live in misery.”

“Killing Jews for Allah is very lucrative, because it is popular with the rest of the world. If it were not popular, it would not be lucrative.”

“And this despite the fact that Israel has NEVER initiated violence against any of its neighbors; it has only ever responded to it. The Israeli Army takes more care than any other to minimize civilian casualties, and everybody knows this; but this is never a feature of any news report, because it sends the wrong message: it tells the truth.”

“But despite the media’s criminal dishonesty and bias, many people are now beginning to see for themselves, even if they can’t quite bring themselves to admit it, yet, that Arab/Muslim Jew-hatred is root-cause of this problem; it is the poison at the heart of it, and until it is confronted and dealt with, honestly and effectively, by the rest of us, including especially the media, the Two-State-Solution will remain self-congratulatory fantasy of stupid Western politicians.”

“But something else that really does not help the emotional temperature of the situation is the fact that the Arabs are clearly jealous of Jews.  And with good reason; they can see the disproportionate contributions that Jews have made to human advancement, in contrast to their own contribution, which is virtually nil. And they can see what a civilized and prosperous society the Jews have created in their midst, in contrast to their own racist, misogynist and deeply ignorant culture, with its childish honor-shame culture, which has no honor, and of which they ought to be ashamed.”

“Also, the Jews have given the Arabs a tidy spanking, several times, when attacked unprovoked, despite being heavily outnumbered.  It seems that everything the Jews do, they do better.  No wonder the Arabs are jealous. It must infuriate them that they very people their infallible religion [Islam] depicts as inferior, as apes and pigs, have turned out to be clearly superior; that has got to hurt!”

“And it must infuriate them to know that the world is openly patronizing them by giving them all this unwarranted attention and money. We all know they do not deserve it, and if they were measured by the standards we apply to everyone else, they would not get it.  But we hold Arabs to lower standards; we expect less of them, because we are racists.”

“And they are so stupid and self-indulgent, they milk it for all it is worth, and they end up expecting less of themselves, a lot less, which is exactly what they get.  And it is what we all get, when show yet again, that they cannot be trusted, by breaking yet another cease-fire, by attacking innocent women and children in the most cowardly way, and are not held to account for it; but on the contrary, are rewarded, yet again.”

“That is why this conflict is self-perpetuating.  That is why the Two-State-Solution is a fantasy, and for once, we in the eternally guilt-ridden West really can’t blame ourselves.”
