H O M E - C R Y P T - L I N K S - R S S - F E E D - B I O Arab Violence There is the popularized myth that Palestinian violence is a direct result of Israeli occupation and settlements in Judea and Samaria. Palestinian militants, both FATAH and HAMAS are terrorists who direct their violence against civilians. They kill Jewish babies. These organizations did not come about because of Israeli occupation of Judea and Samaria. These terrorist groups were founded when the Judea and Samaria ("West Bank" and "Gaza") were under the control of Arabs, not Israel. Yet, the Palestinians claim there would not be a need for what they call "defensive" operations if there was no occupation. This is just another false claim by Arabs since Israel did not occupy the West Bank or Gaza prior to 1967. They hate the Jews and they want Israelis to get out of Israel. They want the Jews out of the Middle East. They want the Jews out of this world. And that wouldn't satisfy them. Even if there were no Jews left anywhere, they would still hate the Jews. Israel's detractors are quick to blame Israel for killing Palestinian civilians and condemn its use of "targeted assassinations" against the leadership HAMAS, like it did with Salah Shehade and 14 others who were killed with him. The death of the planner of the murder of dozens of Jews is not the tragedy they make it out to be. At the time of his demise, Israeli intelligence reported he was "preparing six "mega-attacks" on Israeli civilians." (See "Beyond Occupation" 08-02-2002 in the Baltimore Jewish Times. "In the Shehade attack, Israel quickly apologized for the other killings. They know war is deadly, but seek to minimize such mistakes, even to the extent of putting their own troops in harm's way. So there were no rallies celebrating success, no triumphant waving of machine guns -- such as in place in Arab lands after Israelis are massacred." (ibid) "The Movement for the National Liberation of Palestine (FATAH), and its sister organizations, were not born after or as a result of the Six Day War and Israeli occupation of Judea, Samaria, and Gaza. They came into existence some ten years earlier, when three quarters of a million Arabs in Samaria and Judea lived under Arab rule from Jordan and three hundred thousand lived in the Gaza Strip under Egyptian Arabic rule. They did not enjoy the independence which the Fatah propagandists claim to be the breath of life to them, and they seemed quite oblivious to its absence. For those nineteen years, there was no talk of independence nor any action to secure it. In those years as well, Israel was the target of Fatah's activities---Israel in its cramped partition borders. Then, too, Fatah acted in the name of the `Palestinian people'---presumably the Arab-ruled Arabs of Hebron and Jenin and Nablus as well as the Arabs of Haifa and Jaffa and Nazareth in Israel." (Samuel Katz, "Battleground..." 76) "Fatah was not founded in Palestine. Throughout the years of non-Israel rule in Judea and Samaria, it did not have its headquarters there and did not conduct its operation from there. It was founded in Lebanon in the late 1950s. Its first official offices were opened in 1963 in Algiers, in a building placed at its disposal by the Algerian government. Compelled to leave Algeria because of internal Algerian frictions, it established new headquarters in Beirut. In mid-1965, Fatah headquarters were moved to Domascus, where they remained until the Six Day War." (ibid) "Its leader, Yasser Arafat, its leader, was not uncharacteristic of Fatah membership. His claim to have been born in the Old City of Jerusalem may well be true. It is certain that he was brought up and educated in Egypt, after his parents had emigrated there from Palestine. They were not `refugees' of exiles, they had simply moved house in the 1920s, twenty years or more before the State of Israel came into existence. Arafat is said to have served in the Egyptian forces during the invasion of Palestine in 1948. He certainly qualified in Egypt as an engineer and worked there for some time. He moved ot a job in prosperous Kuwait and there began to agitate against Israel. Henceforward, his political activity dictated his mode of life. From Kuwait he went to live in Beirut, then in Algiers, then back in Beirut, and then in Damascus. Though he was a frquent traveler, in all the ninetten years of Jordanian Arab rule, he did not set foot, let alone try to live, still less naturalize his movement, in Judea or Samaria, not even in the city he claims as his birthplace. He gave Palestine and the people who lived there a wide berth." (ibid) "Fatah operations against Israel, first launched in 1965, were planned in Syria. The fighters first crossed into Jordan or sometimes into Lebanon and from there infiltrated directly into Israel. All the attacks were hit-and-run raids on civilian targets, and seldom did they stray far from the border. For Fatah members could not expect shelter from the Palestinian Arabs, whether in Jordan-occupied Judea and Samaria or in Israel. With few exceptions, the `Palestinian people' were not involved at all, nor did they offer any substantial cooperation, even passive, in these operations." (ibid) It was only after the governments in Israel, under great pressure from the United States made the concessions with Arafat and his henchmen, which made the current political conflict and Intifada what it became, not as a result of occupation, but a result of capitulation and U.S. pressure to surrender to terrorism. Only under pressure from the United States did Israel turn the oil fields over to Egypt, it discovered and developed in the Sinai, which were enough to make Israel energy sufficient. Only after pressure from the United States did Israel pull back from every successful military defensive action and turn it into the defeat of constant vulnerability to terrorism and war. It is that kind of weakness Israel can not afford. In return for the concessions made to Anwar Sadat for an unstable peace after the 1973 war, President Carter agreed to financially reward Israel with billions of dollars in aid each year which has always been renewed by the U.S. Congress. It was a deal which hardly seems worth it in retrospect. These funds have insured a perilous partnership by the United States with the only democracy in the Middle-East and to compensate for the loss of the Sinai and Taba and some very strategic advantages, but the other cost has been the increased criticism from antisemites and anti-Zionists, both on the right and the left, and some regret and criticism from Israelis for giving up more than it should have. Faisal Husseini was a lifelong advocate of violence against Jews and the destruction of Israel. Faisal Husseini was the nephew of Hajj Amin Husseini the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. He was the Palestinian Nazi connection.. (Husseini died of a heart attack during a visit to Kuwait on 31 May 2001) Praising the murder of two Jews, Faisal Husseini's comment after Palestinian Arab terrorists murdered two Jews, one of them a U.S. citizen: "You are talking about an expression of our feeling about the occupation, I have no problem with the deed." (Faisal Husseini quoted in Jerusalem Post, Nov. 6, 2000 - "Violent confrontation") "We will forcefully open up our borders with Jordan and Egypt, which are currently controlled by the Israeli army. There will be violent confrontation and death, but this time on both sides. Are the Israelis more numerous and better equipped? Yes, but the superiority of us Palestinians lies in the fact that we are willing to lay down our lives, whereas for them every death is a tragedy that society cannot bear." (Faisal Husseini in Le Nouvel Observateur, Aug27 - Sept2, 1998, p.46) "Destroy Israel in Stages" Husseini told the Jordanian newspaper A-Ra'i on November 12, 1992: "Our slogan of 'the present phase' is not 'from sea to the Jordan River'. We did not give up, and we will not give up, on any of the obligations to which we have been committed for more than seventy years. We have, in our Palestinian Arab society, the ability to struggle againt the divided Israeli society, which is characterized by conflicts that haunt it. Sooner or later, we will force Israeli society to join a larger society, that is, our Arab society, and we will thereby bring about the dissolving of the Zionist entity in stages." "Palestine is from the Jordan to the Mediterranean Sea" In an interview on Syrian Television on September 9, 1996, Hussein was asked what the boundaries of "Palestine" are. He replied: "[A]ll Palestinians agree that the just boundaries of Palestine are the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea. Realistically, whatever can be obtained now should be accepted and that subsequent events perhaps in the next fifteen or twenty years would present an opportunity to realize the just boundaries of Palestine." (Israeli News Agency (IMRA) - Sept 9, 1996 "Tel Aviv is a Jewish settlement" A map distributed by Faisal Husseini's Jerusalem-based Arab Studies Society lists Tel Aviv, Haifa, and all other Israeli cities within pre-1967 Israel as "Jewish settlements." (Jerusalem Post, March 29, 1995) Asked in 1990 about Arab terrorists who had stabbed Israeli civilians, Husseini said: "The Israeli policeman is like a hunter in the jungle stalking Palestinian youths with his gun in order to kill them--this reality created a similar reaction in some angry Palestinian individuals." (Al Fajr, December 10, 1990) In a speech in the Galilee village of Kufr Yasif in 1990, Hussein said regarding the PLO death squads that had tortured and murdered hundreds of Palestinian Arabs on suspicion of being friendly to Israel: "The Palestinian people has the right to remove collaborators from its ranks...to cleanse our ranks." (Ha'ir, January 12, 1990) Husseini was asked by an interviewer about his uncle, the late Grand Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin el-Husseini, who collaborated with the Nazis during the Holocaust and was indicted by Yugoslavia as a Nazi war criminal. Husseini's comment, "He was just a nationalist." (Los Angeles Jewish Journal, Aug 17 - 23, 1990) "Hatred of Israel as a Yardstick of Patriotism," by Fahmi Huwaidi "...It is proper that the call to hate Israel continue to be a medal worn on the chest of every Arab, and I repeat my position that it should be regarded as a measurement of patriotism and as a certificate of greatness and nobility. We are not oblivious to the grand reputation the singer Shaaban Abdul Rahim earned himself, and the [record] sales of his single hit declaring his hatred of Israel. These words of his brought about, from the depths of Egypt, the eruption of a volcano of hatred, abhorrence and bitterness that had been continuously accumulating for half a century..." (Palestinian Authority's official daily paper Al-Hayat Al-Jadida - (May 16, 2001) "In the strict Islamic view, Israel is always the individual Jew in macrocosm. The Jewish State must be despised because of this relationship, because of the allegedly "innate evil" of each individual Jew. This is a very far cry from the view (accepted by supporters of the Oslo Process) that Israel is despised only because it is an "occupier." The Israeli is despised in the Islamic world because he is a Jew. Period." (Louis Rene Beres - Professor of International Law Department of Political Science - Purdue University) "The first thing that we have to make clear is that no distinction must be made between the Jew and the Israeli....The Jew is a Jew, through the millennia....in spurning all moral values, devouring the living and drinking his blood for the sake of a few coins. The Jew, the Merchant of Venice, does not differ from the killer of Deir Yasin or the killer of the camps. They are equal examples of human degradation. Let us therefore put aside such distinctions and talk about Jews." (Dr. Lufti Abd al-Azim, Al-Ahram) "The Jews are always the same, every time and everywhere. They will not live save in darkness. They contrive their evils clandestinely. They fight only when they are hidden, because they are cowards....The Prophet enlightened us about the right way to treat them, and succeeded finally in crushing the plots that they had planned. We today must follow this way and purify Palestine from their filth." (Egyptian textbook, "Arab Islamic History" used in teacher training colleges in Egypt) "The Islamic Movement was afflicted by the Jews from its very beginnings, when they began their hostile activity by distorting the reputation of Islam, and by defaming and maligning it. This has continued to the present day." And again, on the "Zionist Problem" as a mere manifestation of the underlying and all-important "Jewish Problem," (Dr. Yaha al-Rakhawi remarked in Al-Ahram) "...we are all - once again - face to face with the Jewish Problem, not just the Zionist Problem; and we must reassess all those studies which make a distinction between "The Jew" and "The Israeli"....and we must redefine the meaning of the word `Jew' so that we do not imagine that we are speaking of a divinely revealed religion, or a minority persecuted by mankind....we cannot help but see before us the figure of the great man Hitler, may God have mercy on him, who was the wisest of those who confronted this problem....and who out of compassion for humanity tried to exterminate every Jew, but despaired of curing this cancerous growth on the body of mankind." (Ayatollah Khomeini) "We Palestinians will take over everything, including all of Jerusalem....All the rich Jews who will get compensation will travel to America....We of the PLO will now concentrate all our efforts on splitting Israel psychologically into two camps. Within five years we will have six to seven million Arabs living in the West Bank and in Jerusalem....You understand that we plan to eliminate the State of Israel and establish a purely Palestinian State....I have no use for Jews; they are and remain Jews." (Arafat, 96) It is the BIG LIE that there is a "cycle of violence" and it is a direct result of Israel's military attacks on Palestinians. Everyone knows there is no Israeli cycle of violence against Palestinians. If the Palestinians stopped their suicide bombings and their rocket attacks, all of the violence would stop. If Israelis stopped using their military, no one seriously believes suicide bombings would cease. Under continued pressure from the United States on Israel to capitulate to terrorists by rewarding them with a state on Israel's borders and with continued funding from Syria, Iran, Saudi Arabia and previously from Iraq, the effort goes on to destroy the State of Israel to carry out terrorist bombings, rocket attacks, to murder Jewish babies and perpetrate other acts of terror against Jews.
