Arab Terror and The "Two State Solution"

United Nations Middle East envoy Nickolay Mladenov mourns the failure to implement the "Two State Solution," while the truth is that it's an oxymoron. "Two State Solution" is a fantasy that could never exist/survive.

Even though the State of Israel, from its very troubled birth, even during the War for Independence fighting Arab armies which aimed to destroy it, was willing to find a solution to live peacefully side-by-side with an Arab country, the Arabs have always unabashedly proclaimed its aim to destroy and replace the State of Israel.

In the sixty-eight 68 years of the State of Israel's existence, the Arabs have not changed their stance one iota.

PMW-Palestinian Media Watch: Future: A world without Israel

This simple, but crucial, fact is systematically ignored and whitewashed by not only the United Nations and pretty much all foreign countries, but many in the State of Israel.

Arab terror is the tool the Arabs are using to try to make us leave the Land of Israel and close down the State of Israel, Gd forbid!

I can't ignore it! That's why I blog about this issue so frequently and urgently request that you share this article around, thanks.

Arab Teens in The Forefront of Deadly Terrorism

Why?

Why are so many of the Arab terrorist, of late, so young, still school age?

Dafna Meir, HaYa"D

The two recent attacks against Jews were both by teenage Arab terrorists, the murderer of Dafna Meir, HaYa"D, and the attacker/stabber of Michal Froman, may she have a complete and speedy recovery. And this isn't the first time that the Arab terrorists are so young.

The suspect, said to be 16-year-old Morad Bader Abdullah Adais, was arrested by IDF troops and agents from the Shin Bet security service in a village near Otniel, where he was hiding out, and was taken in for interrogation. Times of Israel

The recent trend is teenage boys and adults with Israeli papers/citizenship/jobs in Israel "proper" sic. Again, I ask:

"Why?"

Concerning the young age of the terrorists, both the PMW-Palestinian Media Watch  and David Bedein's Israel Behind the News have been writing about the education/indoctrination, all supported by the United Nations and innumerable foreign supported NGOs.


Young Arabs, even in Israel, are being brainwashed to support terrorism against Israelis.

And why has the percentage of adult Arabs from Judea/Samaria gone down? I have no doubt it's because they, davka, who know how cruel and corrupt the P.A. Palestinian Authority is do not want to live under Arab rule. They compete for jobs in Israel and for Israeli businesses, and they want to maintain the status quo if not reverse the situation to how it was before the "Two State Solution" had become the mantra of world and Israeli leaders.

Think about it! What do you have to say?

Ain't No "Peace Partners!"

I'm just so sick and tired of hearing that the Arabs, the Fatah, Hamas, P.A.-Palestinian Authority etc are Israel's Peace Partners sic and we should be negotiating away our Land and sovereignty to make a new Arab terror state attached to Israel in our historic Biblical homeland.

We're told that "you can only make peace with enemies" which isn't true at all. You can only make peace with those who want to make peace. And the Arabs here who are supposed to be negotiating with us don't want don't want peace. They want us dead and gone.

Yesterday as I was cooking for the Simchat Torah Holiday and listening to the news on Israeli TV I heard one of the newscasters say what could be most politely called asinine, stupid, ridiculous statements. She was troubled and confused by the fact that the Palestinian sic leadership kept refusing to say the simple formula condemning the recent terror attacks which had resulted in the deaths of at least four innocent Jews.

"Why won't they condemn the terror attacks? Why do they keep refusing? What could be so difficult?" She kept cluelessly asking. 

All she wanted was for them to recite the "magic formula" so it would be easy to pretend that "they are just like us and want to live in peace." Basically she goes for the Catholic version of repentance rather than the Jewish one.

"Say your hail marys and next week you can confess and repent  again."

We're dealing with a very serious enemy, and no number of lukewarm "condemnations" or "hail marys" are going to change them into "peace partners." The latest bulletin from the Palestinian Media Watch make some good points:

Terrorist murderer's motivation echoes PA incitementThe Palestinian terrorist who stabbed two people to death on Saturday night in Jerusalem posted on his Facebook page his motivation to murder. Muhannad Halabi's words echo the hate and terror promotion of the PA leaders and show the direct connection between the murderer's actions and the PA leaders' incitement. 
Palestinian terrorist Muhannad Halabi wrote:

"According to what I see, the third Intifada has begun.What is happening to the Al-Aqsa Mosque is what is happening to our holy places and the way of our Prophet [Muhammad] and what is happening to the women of Al-Aqsa and our mothers and sisters.I do not believe that the people will succumb to humiliation.The people will rise up (literally "make intifada"), it will indeed make intifada."[Facebook page of Muhannad Halabi, Oct. 2, 2015] 

The calls for Palestinians to act violently to "protect" and "defend" the Muslim holy sites have been led directly by Mahmoud Abbas himself, who blessed "every drop of blood that has been spilled for Jerusalem" and presented violence in "defense" of holy sites and against the Jews' "filthy feet" as a religious imperative:  (continue reading)

About "peace," it's not up to Israel. Israel hasn't made war and isn't the initiator of violence and terrorism. The Arabs are the terrorists, violent murdering terrorists. One day, Gd willing they will change, and then there will be peace. Until then  all we can do is defend ourselves and execute all Arab terrorists on the spot.

Bibi Continues to Support Negotiations for Israel's Destruction

For me it's as simple as

1 + 2 = 3

or

X + Y = Z

That's because...

X = PM Netanyahu: "I remain committed to a solution of two states for two peoples..."
Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is determined to negotiate with the P.A. Palestinian Authority, headed by Fatah, to establish a Palestinian sic State.

Y = PA Palestinian Authority school message: "Palestine" will replace Israel.

Palestinian flag over Israel denotes Palestinian political sovereignty

Text: "On this land is something worth living for" [Official PA TV, June 2, 2015] (PMW)

It's very clear that since the aim of the P.A. Palestinian Authority is the destruction of the State of Israel, G-d forbid, then...

Z = The destruction of the State of Israel

There will be no peace with a Palestinian State. Netanyahu's conditions will be watered down by massive international pressure, either with him at the helm or a more Leftist Prime Minister. Every time Netanyahu proclaims that the Palestinians sic deserve a state, he's nailing nails into our coffin. He's supporting and facilitating terrorism and destruction.

I'm a pragmatist plain and simple. Our enemies aren't lying. They aren't embarrassed to broadcast their aims. We must listen and take steps.

• Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu must admit that his policy is faulty and reverse it! 
• The State of Israel must declare full sovereignty in all of the Land we now hold and administer including Judea, Samaria, the Jordan Valley and the Golan.

Those who Support Arab Terror are Also Guilty

Right now there's a trial going on in New York against Palestine Liberation Organization and the Palestinian Authority for its role in deadly Arab terrorism in Israel. Neighbors of mine have flown to New York to give testimony of the serious injuries caused by the Arab terrorists at the trial. Stressing the bad permanent results goes against their nature. They are the type who looks for the good in every situation.

Shiloh residents suffered greatly from Arab terrorism. A number of our children (and a granddaughter) were murdered and maimed. There's no way to be "compensated" for such losses.

It's a terrible distortive and incorrect "myth" that Abbas's Fatah and the Palestinian Authority are "moderate."

Dalal Mughrabi, the terrorist who led the most lethal attack against Israel, in which 37 people were murdered in 1978, was born in January and her date of birth has been celebrated and honorably noted by Abbas' Fatah movement and others.
Awdah TV, whose General Supervisor is Fatah's spokesman Ahmad Assaf, broadcast at length from a party celebrating the terrorist's birthday. Fatah's logo was displayed on stage. 
"Martyr Dalal Mughrabi raised the Palestinian flag from the heart of occupied Palestine," stated the Awdah reporter. "On her birthday we renew the promise to her and its fulfillment. Martyr Dalal Mughrabi will remain a path for the next generations to follow." [Fatah-run Awdah TV and Awdah TV Facebook,
Jan. 3, 2015] (PMW)

And just like the Arab Bank Plc was convicted of complicity in Arab terrorism, all of the NGO's, international leaders, media and academics who support Fatah and the P.A. should be held responsible for Arab terrorism.

The True "Conflict" Between Israel and The Arabs

Just like a doctor can't and shouldn't prescribe treatment without a proper, true, accurate diagnosis, we, the State of Israel will never achieve peace until we recognize what the problem is between us and the Arabs and then find a useful way of solving it.

The real reason there's constant war between the Arabs and Israel has nothing to do with anything that can be mediated or negotiated away.  It is not a "conflict." It is not a "spat." It is not what is called in Hebrew sichsuch  סִכְסוּךְ.

• a conflict between two gangs• recent violent conflict in the region• Everyone in my family always tries to avoid conflict.• There was inevitable conflict over what to name the group.• They're having serious conflicts over the budget.• I don't see any conflicts between the theories.• You'll need to resolve the conflict between your parents' plans for you and your own ambitions.

The very simple truth is that the Arab aim is the destruction of the State of Israel and the death (or banishment) of Jews. Remember that officially many Arab countries, including the so-called moderate sic Jordan is Judenrein, empty/cleansed of Jews.

Fatah leader calls to destroy Israel "from the river to the sea!"

(Palestinian Media Watch) Source: Facebook page of Tawfiq Tirawi, member of Fatah Central Committee, Aug. 5, 2014

"O our free people of resolve and sacrifice in Gaza, you are more honored than us all... We remain committed to the promise: freedom, independence, and driving out the occupier from the entire pure land, from the [Jordan] River to the [Mediterranean] Sea. Long live free Gaza! Your brother, Tawfiq Tirawi."

The State of Israel's hasbara information campaign and its foreign and defense policies unfortunately are totally faulty, because it keeps on avoiding the true issue.

Since Israel isn't The Aggressor, Peace isn't Up to Us

David Ben Gurion reading
the Declaration of Independence
of Israel on May 14, 1948 in Tel Aviv

The State of Israel from its very inception, from those few simple words of independence and even before, has always bent dangerously over backwards to have peaceful coexistence with the Arabs who live here in our Land. Therefore, peace, true peace, isn't up to us. We've offered it on gilded platters forever. Nothing we do will bring peace to our Land.

It's the aggressor, the Arabs, who terrorize us, murder, maim Jews and undermine our national security who must change totally for there to be peace, true peace.

The demands of the P.A.'s Abbas must be silenced!

Speaking to a group of Israeli journalists in Ramallah, Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas laid out his three conditions for continuing talks with Israel: that Israel release the fourth batch of Palestinian security prisoners, including Israeli-Arabs, and that none of them be deported; that Israel freeze all settlement construction; and that the first three months of the extended talks deal with the borders of a future Palestinian state. (Jerusalem Post)

We should be shouting out the truth!

• Mahmoud Abbas does not want peace with the State of Israel!
• Mahmoud Abbas is in favor of Arab terrorist murderers!

The messages Mahmoud Abbas sends to Arabs are the ones we should be paying attention to, not his well-crafted English for foreigners and journalists. Remember that we're not going to have peaceful coexistence with his public relations team. Peace has to be with ordinary people, and the Arabs Abbas is trying to control either support Hamas or prefer that the Israeli Government stay in charge. There are very few Arabs, except those on the "take," who want to perpetuate his rule. Corruption is rampant in the P.A. under Abbas.

Abbas admits PA sent terrorists to kill Israelis

PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas:"I demand [the release of] prisoners because they are human beings, who did what we, we, ordered them to do. We - the [Palestinian] Authority. They should not be punished while we sit at one table negotiating. Besides, they spent many years in prison. How much longer? Do they have to spend all their life in prison and even die there?" Interviewer: "How can we deal with their criteria "bloodstained hands?" Abbas: "Such talk is illogical talk and I do not accept it. What does a bloodstained hand mean? We were fighting each other. They kill and kill. They hunt down people with planes and tanks and killed. The soldier who kills 50 or 20 persons here and there - are his hands stained with talc powder? They are stained with blood. This is war. One (i.e., Israel) ordered a soldier to kill, and I ordered my son, brother, or others, to carry out the duty of resistance (i.e., euphemism for terror). This person killed and the other person killed. So why say this person's hands are stained with blood, and [he] must be kept in prison? He is a fighter just like any other fighter. We were in a state of fighting. When a truce is reached, in any country in the world, the past is forgotten... What meaning is there to peace with the Israelis if the wanted continues to be wanted, the prisoner continues to be imprisoned, and the deportee continues to be deported? What am I worth in the eyes of the ordinary [Palestinian] citizen? The ordinary citizen will ask me: 'What did you get me? You ordered me - you are responsible for me.'" (Palestinian Media Watch)

There is only one logical thing for the State of Israel to do. Just tell the truth.

THERE'S NO WAY IN HELL THAT ABBAS IS CAPABLE OR WILLING TO "MAKE PEACE" WITH ISRAEL, SO WE ARE CUTTING OFF ALL NEGOTIATIONS AND SUPPORT FOR HIS CORRUPT ADMINISTRATION!

Can Abbas and Fatah Really Make Peace With Israel?

Can Abbas and Fatah Really Make Peace With Israel?

Certainly not before ham is declared kosher...

Read the latest in the Palestinian Media Watch-PMW!

PA: "Palestine" replaces all of Israeland is "indivisible"
Fatah Facebook: "We educate our children... [so that] they will only agree to one rule, which cannot be added to, subtracted from, or calculated: that Palestine cannot be divided"

"We educate our children on the national anthem every morning. They will memorize the anthem of 'return'; they will engrave the four-colored [Palestinian] flag on their hearts; they will learn the foundations of the revolution before they learn to read and write; they will only agree to one rule, which cannot be added to, subtracted from, or calculated: that Palestine cannot be divided." [Facebook, "Fatah-The Main Page," March 5, 2014]

The text was accompanied by a photo of a teacher pointing to a map of "Palestine" replacing all of Israel drawn on the blackboard, with the explanatory text rejecting Israeli jurisdiction over Israeli cities: "Acre, Haifa, Jaffa, Ramle, Safed, Beit Shean, were and will remain Palestinian cities."

Fatah is not moderate! They are extreme, radical anti-Israel Arabs.

I so sincerely wish that the Israeli Government from Prime Minister Bibi Netanyahu on down would take the statements of the Fatah seriously. It's not like this is all secret. Another generation of Arabs is being raised to deny Israel's existance. Therefore according to simple logic, we can't have peace with them, and they do not want true peace with us.

We must stop trying to imagine, guess what Arab reactions will be to our peace proposals. If you read carefully, you'll see that Israeli politicians don't quote the Arabs.  They guess, imagine, think that the Arabs will react in peaceful ways to all the "deals" being proposed by the Americans and the Leftists. There are only a couple of sites where you can find the truth about the Arab plans for Israel. One is the PMW and the other is David Bedein's Behind the News in Israel. Here's an excerpt from a recent post on his site.

Arafat and the Jewish State: Setting the Record Straight

• On March 13, 2014, Secretary of State John Kerry told Congress that he views Israel’s principled requirement of recognition as the nation state of the Jewish People “as a mistake.” He added that the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat “confirmed that he agreed it [Israel] would be a Jewish state” in 1988 and in 2004.

• However, the truth is just the opposite: the U.S. administration at the time did not believe that Arafat’s words satisfied their goal of his recognizing Israel’s right to exist. Moreover, Arafat’s 1988 statement does not come close to meeting the requirement for the Palestinians to recognize Israel as the nation-state of the Jewish People.

• In the last quarter of 1988, an intense effort was undertaken to facilitate the opening of a diplomatic dialogue between the PLO and the U.S. Previously, all U.S. administrations had strictly adhered to U.S. commitments, originally given by Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, that required the PLO to recognize Israel, accept UN Security Council Resolution 242, and renounce terrorism as prerequisites for any dialogue between the parties.

• Arafat did not issue a clear declaration recognizing Israel as a Jewish state, but only summarized the language of UN General Assembly Resolution 181. The U.S. government concluded that Arafat’s statement did not meet Washington’s demand that the PLO unequivocally recognize the State of Israel, and thus no dialogue was launched between the U.S. and the PLO at that time.

I highly suggest that you subscribe to these news sites.

Can Prime Minister Bibi Take His Statements to Their Logical Conclusion?

Netanyahu to Biden: Abbas Doesn't Want Peace

PM Netanyahu tells visiting U.S. VP that recent comments by PA Chairman were proof that he does not want peace. Arutz 7

Simple logic demands that this statement should follow with the announcement by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu that Israel is ending its participation in the farcical, wasteful and ultimately useless and dangerous for Israel "peace" sic talks.  

Abbas told a delegation on Saturday that there will be "no peace between us and Israel" without eastern Jerusalem as the capital of the future Palestinian state.
Abbas added that he heard that the Israelis had refused to mention Jerusalem in any talks or negotiations.
"Let them say whatever they say. Unless it is mentioned clearly and marked in big fonts that it is the capital of the state of Palestine, there will be no peace with them and I want them to hear this," he declared.
"Our language is understandable. We have been hearing lots of talks about the capital here and there. The capital is Jerusalem and its surroundings in Jerusalem which were occupied in 1967," he said, highlighting that he is adhering to a stance that has long been official policy.
"We have a right even though we are weak in the world. We will continue to demand our rights and we will realize them," said Abbas.
The comments are nothing new, as the PA Chairman has repeatedly stressed that unless all his demands are met, there will be no peace with Israel.

I agree that Abbas is incapable of making peace with Israel, simply because his, the PA's aim is Israel's destruction.

PA leader: Stages plan to eliminate Israel is basis of PA policy
Abbas Zaki, close associate of Mahmoud Abbas, says a Palestinian state on the 1967 borders is only first stage in the PA's program because "the inspiring idea cannot be achieved all at once. [Rather] in stages"In an interview on Al-Jazeera TV in 2011, Zaki also mentioned this PA stages plan and referred to "the inspiring idea," explaining that it means the end of Israel. He said that Mahmoud Abbas shares the goal of eliminating Israel in stages, but that the PA says it only wants a state along the 1967 borders because it is unacceptable politically to say you want to destroy Israel:
"You can't say it to the world. You can say it to yourself."

Zaki stressed that the goal is clear-cut because if Israel were to return to the 1967 lines, it certainly could not survive: "Israel will come to an end."

It's not in Israel's best interests, nor in Israel's minimal interests, to ignore this.

Before meeting with Netanyahu, Biden visited President Shimon Peres and told him Israel’s security depended on “genuine accommodation” with a Palestinian state.
He characterized the Arab Spring as an “incredibly historical phenomenon,” and said “the only place where there is a possibility for an island of stability is quite frankly between the Palestinian people and the Israeli people, in two secure states respecting one another’s sovereignty and security.”
“This is one of those opportunities, one of those moments in history. It has to be seized,” Biden said, adding that US Secretary of State John Kerry is passionate about achieving a successful outcome. (Jerusalem Post)

No country, no foreign diplomat or politician will lose sleep over his/her mistaken/false statements.  And they have nothing to lose when the Arab terrorists prove them wrong.  They'll find a way to blame Israel for its own destruction, G-d forbid.

The diplomatic storm and protest over our leaving the talks will be nothing compared to what Israel would suffer if we continued and gave in to the Americans who are pushing the Arab terrorist policies. Let's leave the so-called "peace" sic talks NOW!

Inanity, Insanity, Dangerous Words From Minister Yair Lapid!

Jerusalem Post email/digest headline:

Lapid: Israeli-Palestinian conflict is psychological, not territorial 

Duh? How dumb can the guy be?

The conflict with the Palestinians is about distrust more than anything else, Finance Minister Yair Lapid said at The Jerusalem Post Diplomatic Conference on Thursday....he Yesh Atid leader said that the peace process is not a logical puzzle, otherwise some of the great minds who have worked on it would have been able to solve it already. He also denied that the conflict is about borders, maps, Jerusalem, land swaps or anything technical, nor is it about Palestinian terrorism or Israeli settlements.
“The problem is fear, mistrust, traumas, memories,” Lapid said, presenting his central thesis. “How can people who don’t believe each other and hate and fear each other, sign an agreement and talk about coexistence? 
“The problem is that this isn’t a dialogue but two monologues. Israelis want peace and security; Palestinians want peace and justice. It sounds similar, but those are different sets of emotions, and we don’t talk about it, because we don’t know how to quantify it,” he explained.
“We need psychologists and psychiatrists, not generals,” Lapid said.

Does Lapid know anything about Israeli History, Jewish History?  Does he actually listen to our enemies? That makes him a chassid of Shimon Peres who has instructed us to ignore history.
From Peres's interview on wikinews:

DS: Isn’t the answer to that question that wise decisions are made with a basis from memory? Although a computer can have…SP: No, no. Forget memory. Look, the new age is unprecedented. When something is unprecedented, it means it doesn’t have a past, doesn’t have a history. It’s totally oriented on the future. And whoever dwells in the past, doesn’t understand the future because the past is full of prejudices, of commitments. It arrests us. And then you say you won’t commit a mistake, so you’ll commit new mistakes. It doesn’t matter.
DS: What about the adage, “Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it”?SP: So they will make new mistakes. Mistake is inevitable as long as there are human beings. But you cannot repeat mistakes because the world is not built on repetition; it’s built on mutation.

And:

"People tend to remember more and think less," Mr. Peres wrote in "The New Middle East," his 1993 manifesto defending the accords. "Our thoughts, which concentrate on the unfamiliar, are less welcome. However, we must focus on this new Middle East reality … and not wander among memories of victories in long-gone wars -- wars that will never be fought again." Critics of Oslo pointed to Arafat's unambiguous record of hostility to Israel, double-dealing, and ruthlessness. For Mr. Peres, however, history was not a source of wisdom, but a burden. Quoted from here

In all honesty, I don't understand why, how anyone in their right mind, whether Jewish or not can ignore the simple fact that the aim of the Arabs is to destroy the State of Israel and banish Jews.  This isn't an emotional problem, nor a psychosis.  The Arabs have never been shy at telling the truth.  It's terrifying to think that the people in charge of the State of Israel, elected government officials, like coalition member Yair Lapid is so totally disengaged from reality.  Lapid is misinterpreting the symptoms and treating them as the cause of the violence instead of properly understanding what the Arabs are saying and teaching.

Lapid's method reminds me of how a friend died of cancer, because she went for alternative medicine treatment for pain instead of getting a proper diagnosis of the cause of the pain. It's very possible that if she had gotten an accurate diagnosis of the cancer at an early stage, she could have been cured.  Yair Lapid is on the wrong track entirely.

Not for the first time, I recommend keeping up with the Palestinian Media Watch to find out what is really going on with the Arabs, what they are saying in Arabic, rather than Leftist agenda lies our politicians and media prefer telling.

I think that Dry Bones is onto something, G-d forbid.

Dry Bones

Israel's Intelligence Minister, How Intelligent?

This algemeir news headline really got me:

Israeli Intelligence Minister Steinitz Says He’s ‘Not Confident’ That Deal With PA Would Bring Peace (INTERVIEW)

How much real intelligence does it take to understand that no matter what Israel offers, there can't be real peace with the Arabs in this generation, if not century?

Photo: Israel's Ministry of Finance.

In a recent interview with The Algemeiner Israel’s Minister of Intelligence, International Relations and Strategic affairs, Yuval Steinitz said he was “not confident” that a deal between Israel and the Palestinian Authority, in the current ongoing negotiations, would bring peace to the region.
“You know, many Israelis are quite suspicious about the peace process, because they ask themselves, ‘What kind of peace are we going to get?’” he said, explaining that Palestinian incitement against Jews and Israelis has raised concern about the long term intentions of the Palestinian Authority.

Steinitz must be familiar with the phrase "read my lips," and if so must know that it's of great importance to actually pay attention to what our enemies say when the Americans aren't coaching them and trying to program them to recite the proper "peaceful mantra."

Abbas’ Idea for Israeli Security: No IDF Arrests of Terrorists
Abbas is doing a great job to make the PA non-existent. He claims cooperation with the IDF is great but the IDF must stop entering Arab cities to arrests terrorists. Even Livni is not that naïve to agree.

The type of change, total ideological and cultural change that would be needed in Arab society for a true peace would take a long time.  It's not like changing an outfit of clothes.  It's more like dying one's hair.  In a few weeks after dying hair you can see the original color in the roots.  The Arab terrorists may say the right words at the ceremony and dress in very sophisticated western clothes for the cameras, but in a short period of time, the grey or roots will show, and Israel again would suffer from terrorism.

Fatah praises terrorist shooter of 9 year-old: "The sniper of Palestine was here... He left a signature of [real] men"
After a nine-year-old girl was shot in the Israeli town of Psagot in the West Bank yesterday, the administrator of an official Fatah Facebook page praised the terrorist shooter. He related the attack to a sniper attack that killed an Israeli soldier in Hebron two weeks ago. Writing on behalf of Fatah, the page administrator praised "the sniper of Palestine" who began his work in Hebron (the shooting of the soldier), passed through El-Bireh (the shooting of the girl), and - according to the Fatah Facebook page administrator - will continue in more places in the future: PMW

Israelis must stop lying to themselves.  Yes, we must look and listen clearly to what the Arabs are saying to each other, not just the fancy speeches and "interpretations" by Lefts, politicians, media and foreigners.  We have too much to lose.

Let's Define PEACE

I wish there were strict international labeling regulations.  People are trying to sell us a "peace" which doesn't comply with the meaning of the word, at least as I, a linguistic and grammatical purist, thinks it should be defined.

Definition of PEACE

: a state of tranquility or quiet: as

a : freedom from civil disturbance

b : a state of security or order within a community provided for by law or custom peace

4

a : a state or period of mutual concord between governments

b : a pact or agreement to end hostilities between those who have been at war or in a state of enmity

5

—used interjectionally to ask for silence or calm or as a greeting or farewell

— at peace

: in a state of concord or tranquillity

I'm not really  sure what Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is trying to promote:

Netanyahu: Peace Agreement Won’t Eliminate ‘Wild Defamation of Jewish State’
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said Thursday that he desires peace, but that no agreement with the Palestinian Authority would silence critics of the Jewish state.
“Let no one among us delude him or herself that if we make a peace agreement with the Palestinians, that this agreement would eliminate the wild defamation of the state of the Jews. What has been the lot of the Jews beforehand, for generations, today is the lot of the state of the Jews,” Netanyahu told an audience during a State Memorial Ceremony for Zionist leader Theodor Herzl in Jerusalem.

What would we, the State of Israel, be getting in the proposed deals/treaties?

Again, I recommend that you subscribe to the Palestinian Media Watch for their updates.  They aren't afraid to publicize what is really being said by the Arab world, especially in the P.A. Palestinian Authority by its so called "moderate" leaders.

This official PA map of "Palestine” was broadcast on PA TV in September 2011. The map includes both the PA areas and all of Israel (excluding the Golan Heights) wrapped in the Palestinian flag - a symbol of Palestinian sovereignty over the whole area - and has a key through it, symbolizing ownership. Similar maps presenting all of Israel as "Palestine" appear in Palestinian schoolbooks and are shown regularly on PA TV.

If it's not real peace, I'm not buying!  I'd rather wait until the Arabs are ready and want to live in peace, the true type, as much as we do.

Could That Really Be Common Sense From Tsippi Livni?

I took a double take when I saw this headline:

Livni: No chance Israel can reach peace deal with Hamas

Is the Moshiach, Messiah  really getting closer?

There is no chance that Israel could reach a peace agreement with Hamas, Justice Minister Tzipi Livni said Saturday evening in an interview with Army Radio.
Livni - the minister responsible for peace talks - was referring to remarks made by Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Friday that Fatah-Hamas reconciliation is imperative to the Israeli-Palestinian peace process.
She added that Erdogan views Hamas positively, and this has been his stance for years. "This perception is not correct" she said. "Hamas represents an Islamic ideology that does not recognize Israel's existence. Hamas prefers to isolate itself than to say that Israel has the right to exist or to renounce violence."

This is the woman who rationalized her joining the coalition by saying that she'd only do it to "make peace."  Many Israelis, including me, are petrified that she'll make some horribly dangerous faux peace  agreement with the Arabs.  Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu has put her in charge of negotiations with the Arabs who want us destroyed. The PA's Abbas is no better than Hamas according to various articles on the Palestine Media Watch site.

Abbas admits sending terrorists to kill Israelis "I demand [the release of] prisoners because they are human beings, who did what we, we, ordered them to do. We, the Authority. They should not be punished while we sit at one table negotiating. This is war. One (Israel) ordered a soldier to kill, and I ordered my son, brother, or others, to carry out the duty of resistance (euphemism for terror). This person killed and the other person killed. So why say this person's hands are stained with blood, and [he] must be kept in prison?"

Nothing Abbas has done and said since proves that he has changed since he made that statement.

Will Livni look at the entire picture and realize that she's barking up the wrong tree? 

Negotiations won't bring us peace.  We'll only have peace when the Arabs want peace with us and not want to destroy and murder us.

There's a brutal truth in the Arab Press

The media and international diplomats, politicians, charlatans etc keep brainwashing the world to believe in the ultimately peaceful intentions of the Arabs.

They keep coming up with "solutions" and brainstorms on how to "solve" the "conflict."

It's all a "con," a trick.

They don't read or listen to what the Arabs are actually saying. There a couple of excellent organizations which try to publicize the truth, straight from the "horse's" (no offense to horses) mouth.

The Arab Internet media has become very professional and slick. I suggest reading Ma'an News Agency to find out what they really think and want.

Thanks to IMRA and PMW for all of their excellent work!
