Stephen Walt’s Appalling Response to the Fogel Family Massacre

Laura: Are we supposed to be grateful because the despicable Stephen Walt makes a show of condemning the horrific massacre of the Fogel family as a prelude to a screed against Israel, “settlers” and their supporters? Walt and his equally despicable peers in academia along with the media and various artists and entertainers have the blood of the Fogel family on their hands due to the vicious hatred, demonization and lies they have hurled against Israel, especially the “settlers”. The quartet should also be held accountable for funding the PA and hamas while pressuring Israel to surrender territory, remove “settlements” and remove the checkpoints which were put in place to keep the jihadist cutthroats out. Most appalling and unforgivable of all is the Israeli leadership over the last 18 years since Oslo. They forgot that their priority was supposed to be the protection of their people, not pleasing the...

ISRAEL: You Cannot Negotiate or Reason with a Rabid Dog

by Bill Levinson

You cannot reason or negotiate with a rabid dog.

ANY QUESTIONS?




Antisemitic reaction to the massacre

Wake up, smell coffee

Fresno Zionism

The Usual Suspects, from the Israeli ‘peace camp’ to anti-Israel academics like Stephen Walt, have responded to the shocking murders in Itamar in the following general way:

    Yes, it was horrible, one really shouldn’t cut the throats of little babies. But fundamentally it is the fault of ‘settlers’ for living in illegal settlements built on Palestinian land.

    Yes, it looks bad for the Palestinians, if of course it turns out that Palestinians did it, but settlers resort to violence as well and violence breeds violence.

    Yes it’s unfortunate for the surviving members of the family. But the most important bad thing that has come out of it is that Israel is responding by permitting more construction in settlements, and that damages the ‘peace process’.

I’m not going to quote or link to the people who say these sort of things. Look anywhere and you’ll find it, and far worse.

U.S.-trained forces arrested in bloody slaying of kids

By Aaron Klein, FROM WND’S JERUSALEM BUREAU

JERUSALEM – Two members of Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas’ official security forces were arrested in conjunction with this past weekend’s bloody massacre in which five family members were brutally stabbed to death inside their home in the Jewish village of Itamar, WND has learned.

The names of the apprehended suspects will be released to the Israeli media within hours but were revealed to WND by security officials working on the murder.

Two cousins are now in Israeli custody and are suspected in the slayings. Ahmed Awad is an officer in Abbas’ Preventative Security Services in the northern West Bank city of Nablis. Iyad Awad is an officer in Abbas’ General Intelligence services in Ramallah.

Both the Preventative and General Intelligence services of Fatah are armed, trained and funded by the U.S.

The duo did not personally carry out the murders, but rather they assisting in the planning...

IDF seizes Gaza-bound arms vessel

Navy dep. commander: ‘Victoria’ carried anti-ship missiles

Ron Ben-Yishai, YNET NEWS

Navy soldiers seized a German merchant vessel transporting weapons from Syria to Gaza 200 miles west off Israel’s coast on Tuesday. The IDF Spokesperson’s Unit said the “Victoria” ship sailed under the Liberian flag and was carrying various types of weapons.

The IDF’s Spokesperson’s Unit said that the takeover was carried out swiftly and did not meet any resistance. The ship was later escorted back to the Israeli shore by Navy vessels for more scans.

A preliminary probe suggests the ship’s crew was not aware of the weapons concealed on board the vessel.

On its way from Syria to Alexandria, Egypt the ship docked at Turkey’s Mersin Port. It is estimated that the weapons on board were intended for terror groups operating in the Gaza Strip.

Turkey was in no way connected to the ship as far as the IDF is aware. The seizure of the vessel was...

Our World: Three Jewish children

By CAROLINE B. GLICK, JPOST

People are no longer ashamed to parade negative feelings toward Jews.

Ruth Fogel was in the bathroom when the Palestinian terrorists pounced on her husband Udi and their three-month-old daughter Hadas, slitting their throats as they lay in bed on Friday night in their home in Itamar.

The terrorists stabbed Ruth to death as she came out of the bathroom. With both parents and the newborn dead, they moved on to the other children, going into a bedroom where Ruth and Udi’s sons Yoav (11) and Elad (four) were sleeping. They stabbed them through their hearts and slit their throats.

The murderers apparently missed another bedroom where the Fogels’ other sons, eight-year-old Ro’i and two-year-old Yishai were asleep because they left them alive. The boys were found by their big sister, 12-year-old Tamar, when she returned home from a friend’s house two hours after her family was massacred.

Tamar found Yishai standing over his parents’ bodies...

Obama’s ME policy in ruins

Saudi and UAE troops go into Bahrain, Kuwaitis on the way
DEBKAfile Exclusive Report March 14, 2011, 3:40 PM (GMT+02:00)

Saudi and United Arab Emirates troops crossed into Bahrain Monday, March 14 to support the king against escalating anti-throne demonstrations and Kuwait soldiers are on the way. A Saudi official said the units come from a special force within the six-nation Gulf Cooperation Council. debkafile reports that the Saudis also sent tanks.

By this action, both Arab kingdoms flouted US President Obama’s policy of boosting popular movements against autocratic Arab regimes. Saturday, US Defense Secretary Robert Gates visited Bahrain to hold the ruler’s hand against using force to suppress the uprising against him.

The Shiite opposition leading the demonstrations in Bahrain denounced the entry of any foreign troops into the country as an “occupation” and “conspiracy” against unarmed civilians and appealed to the United Nations to take action.

Harvey Weinstein’s Anti-Israel Film

Laura: Harvey Weinstein is set to screen his terrorist sympathizing film to a receptive, anti-Semitic audience at the UN. However there will never be a film made about the Fogel family and other victims of jihad atrocities in Israel or elsewhere. Weinstein epitomizes the depraved state of Hollywood and the rest of the current cultural climate. No matter how many atrocities are perpetrated by muslims in the name of islam, the cultural elite insists its a peaceful religion. No matter how many barbaric murders against the Jews in Israel, they don’t see it as proof that peace is not possible with Israel’s genocidal enemies, but rather they conclude that Israel simply hasn’t surrendered enough of its miniscule land to the fatah and hamas terrorists. But how can you expect people who exhibit no moral standards in their own lives to be able to make moral judgements about anything else? Weinstein and the rest of the...
