Israelis should practice apartheid - it's biblical!

Siegman: Israel = apartheid (The Nation)
In an essay in The Nation, Henry Siegman, a one-time leader of the American Jewish Congress who jumped to the think-tank world, plays the apartheid card against Israel.

************

The Arab-occupied dismembered parts of the Jewish homeland known as the "Palestinian" territories are Judenrein by demand and yet the world ignores such apartheid? Both the United States and Israel acquiesce to such irony (remember Ariel Sharon?) and expel Jews when Israel would do well to expel their sworn Arab enemies, as Meir Kahane courageously called for saying they must go - reminding the nation of the Law of Moses that instructs them to enforce peace through strength.

Peace Now: Arabs and Jews Must Go Their Separate Ways

Not only do self-hating Jews and Israel-bashers expose their woeful ignorance of the facts on the ground in Israel, they reveal a disturbing lack of education when it comes to apartheid as formerly practiced in South Africa before the ANC communists and terrorist Nelson Mandela were empowered to destroy the nation.

How Evil was Apartheid?

Barak Borked

www.barrychamish.com

BARAK BORKED
by Barry Chamish

In 1997, an attorney visited me twice hoping to convince me that the president of Israel's Supreme Court, Aharon Barak, was involved in the Rabin assassination. He insisted that Barak is, "the most dangerous man in Israel. He's taken over the state. In my circles, Peres may be the chief suspect but he couldn't have done it without Barak's approval." He added, "Why do you think Meir Shamgar ran the commission of inquiry? He was the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court and that means the Supreme Court has taken full responsibility for controlling the crime." My problem is the Supreme Court certainly turned down every appeal to it to re-investigate the murder, so it abetted the murderers of Rabin, but I could find nothing on Barak himself. And I just didn't have enough legalize in me to understand how powerful Barak really is.

Then, in December 2008, I gave a speech in Omaha and my sponsor was a rabbi, Jonathan Gross, far wiser than I, who had delved in depth into Israel's current decay. He recommended a book he possessed to understand the quick and unstoppable decay in Israel's core values. The book is Coercing Virtue by Robert Bork.

Admittedly, I was reluctant to even look at the book because Bork gained judicial power after Pres. Nixon ordered his attorney general, Archbald Cox, to fire the special prosecutor investigating Watergate. Cox refused, his deputy refused, but Bork, by process of elimination, rose to the office of attorney general by signing the order. That said, my prejudices were overcome by Bork's later integrity, and the good rabbi gave me the book to study at home.

Bork was the inspiration to my finally understanding Barak. He explains how Barak took over the state, substituted justice for oligarchy, and has, indeed, gone to great lengths to protect Peres.

Coercing Virtue explains how the Knesset was taken over by the Supreme Court. As the new Prime Minister, Rabin, took office in 1992, a law was passed that was, in essence, Israel's unknown constitution. Without even reading the clauses of the law, without debating its provisions, with fewer than half of Knesset members in attendance, the Knesset passed a law giving executive powers to the Supreme Court.

From this point on, anyone could get an instant hearing on their petition to indict any member of the government. The petitioner need not have been personally injured by the Respondent, and no long lower court process was required to get a hearing from the nation's highest court.

The real change of regime occurred when PM Rabin opposed a Supreme Court ruling that his coalition partner, Rafael Pinchasi, could be stripped of his Knesset immunity and tried for corruption. Without Pinchasi and his Shas Party, Rabin couldn't form a governing coalition. Rabin ordered the government's attorney general to present its arguments to the Court and he refused to defend Rabin. The only party legally authorized to defend the government is the attorney general and when he said no to Rabin, he and the Supreme Court took over Israel, including its military forces.

We cite Bork's Coercing Virtue:

pp. 111 - Pride of place in the international judicial deformation of democratic government goes not to the United States, nor Canada, but to the State of Israel. The Israeli Supreme Court is making itself the dominant institution in the nation, an authority no other court in the world has achieved. Imagine, if you can, a supreme court that has gained the power to choose its own members, wrested control of the attorney general from the executive branch, set aside legislative and executive action when there were disagreements about policy, altered the meaning of enacted law, forbidden government action at certain times, ordered government action at other times, and claimed and exercised the authority to override national defense measures. No act of imagination is required. Israel's Supreme Court has done them all.

pp. 112 - The extraordinary events cannot be understood without reference to one man, Aharon Barak. From the beginning of his tenure on the Supreme Court in 1978 to his assumption of the court's presidency in 1995, Barak has been the dominant figure in Israeli law...and the single most influential person in Israeli public life.

pp. 114 - Barak has reshaped the law so that practically any subject, no matter how political, may be decided by the court.

Israeli Legal Advice: Fire On Gaza Only In Open Areas

Israel Defense Minister Ehud Barak requested advice from the security establishment's legal adviser to enable the Israeli army to fire into Gaza, due to the escalation in Gaza rocket fire in the past month.

The Legal adviser to the Israel Ministry of Defense, Mr. Ahaz Ben-Ari stated in his opinion that according to international law, fire can only be aimed at open areas, yet not at built-up areas.

"There is no blanket prohibition in international law on artillery fire towards military targets in the Gaza Strip," wrote Attorney Ben-Ari. "However, in light of the fact that artillery fire has a very low level of accuracy, and causes a relatively high degree of damage, artillery fire can only be carried out towards relatively open areas, if it is believed that the rocket cells will be hit as a result and that the launches from these areas will be stopped or reduced, and this fire will not cause excessive damage to civilians who may be in the area."

Despite these restrictions, the legal adviser clarified that if repeated fire is identified from a built-up area, "the response can be increased by giving the residents of this area warning of the intention to respond with fire, with a recommendation to evacuate the area within a reasonable period of time."

Mr. Ben-Ari made it clear that in any case, "carpet bombing" was not authorized, even if the population had abandoned the area, in order to prevent complete destruction of civilian property. What Mr. Ben-Ari did not consider was that any warning delivered by the Israeli army of imminent attack on an Arab village would generate a counter response, with the likelihood being that terrorists would invite TV crews and various levels of the civilian population to act as human shields against any planned Israeli attack.

*

pp. 114 - Even an activity, bearing the greatest political character, such as the making of war and peace, is examinable by judicial criteria...The extremes to which Barak's judicial philosophy can carry him are shown by his statement that the deployment of troops in wartime is a justiciable issue.

pp. 123 - Considering the dangers continually confronting Israel, its responses to terrorist attacks and the threat of invasion have been quite moderate, sometimes arguably too moderate.

pp. 125 - An important means of preserving national security was taken away by the court...Universalistic principles were deployed to harm Israel's security, without adequately weighing Israel's particular circumstance and needs.

pp. 132 - The Knesset is loath to pass laws that it fears a Barak-led court would likely overturn.

*

Having been victimized by Israeli kangaroo courts, and reporting on endless judicial outrages, I had to find one event as a metaphor for the hideous coordination between the Supreme Court and the government it controls. One incident, found in my book Bye Bye Gaza, stood out as an example of how the court victimizes the people.

In late July 2005, over 50,000 people had gathered in Sderot for a protest organized by the Yesha Council, supposedly to march to Gaza and save Gush Katif. We got in our cars for the mission but the police, predictably if you're me, had blockaded our passage. Thousands of cars pulled over to the side and word was spreading quickly to march half a mile to the blockade to confront the police.

In my car were my friends Jerry and Iris. I said, "It's going to happen at last. Let's meet the police and push them out of the way." Iris felt like me, nervous about police reaction, but knowing that if Gush Katif was to be saved, we had to defeat the authorities. Jerry joined us, but was worried how injury or arrest would be viewed at work.

Half way to the police lines, worried Yesha Council workers ran up and down the lines, warning everyone to get back in their cars because, "The Bagatz, (the Supreme Court), is hearing our petition to continue right now."

As I watched the mob return to their cars, I said to Jerry and Iris, "Let's go home. Gush Katif is gone."

http://www.jewishindy.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=8855
Twice as Many Indictments, Half as Many Convictions

Another statistic shows that while the rate of indictments per criminal case averages 14% across the country, in the Judea and Samaria District it was no less than 38% - more than twice the national average.

Even more significant, however, is the rate of convictions: While across the country, 97% of those indicted on criminal files are convicted, in Judea and Samaria it is only 54%. The report therefore concludes that the judicial system ends up doing the "filtering out" work that the police are supposed to do, and "this is a grave blow at the basic civil rights of suspects in Judea and Samaria, who, because of the selective law enforcement policies, find themselves in the status of 'accused' who are forced to defend themselves in court, with all that that implies, in order to regain their status of presumed innocence."

pp. 115 - The court's values implement a socialist impulse to cultural and social affairs. They are universalistic in scope, and to the exclusion of competing values, stress such concerns as dignity, freedom, and equality of individuals. As rhetoric, those words are highly persuasive, as operational concepts, they have often proved highly deleterious.

pp. 120 - There would seem to be less and less reason for the Israeli people to bother electing a legislature and executive; the attorney general, with the backing of the Supreme Court, can decide almost everything for them... Democracy is slowly being replaced by oligarchy.

pp. 127 - Concern for Muslim sensibilities was reasonable, but concern for ultra-Orthodox sensibilities was not. The court's rejection of specifically Jewish values was also evident in its decisions that the importation of nonkosher meat cannot be banned, new communities sited for defensive purposes may not be limited to Jews, and Hareidi youth groups may not be funded by the government as other youth groups are.

pp. 130 - Barak and his court are redefining Israel's values so that, in area after area of Israeli life, the Jewishness of the state matters less and less...According to Barak, when the values of Israel as a Jewish state cannot be reconciled with its values as a democratic state, the decision must be made according to 'the views of the enlightened community in Israel.'

pp. 131 - In cases where the general public would prefer a value a value specific to Judaism, that public is left without a voice in the ability to govern...realization of the degree to which the public has been disenfranchised and the executive branch emasculated in Israel comes as a shock to most outside observers. The more friendly to Israel such observers are, the greater the dismay.

pp. 132 - The more such cases are adjudicated by a Barak-inspired court, the less Jewish Israel is likely to become.

And as the public's trust in Barak and his court is whittled away, it still protects Pres. Peres with all its contrived might.

http://www.ynet.co.il/english/articles/0,7340,L-3410609,00.html
The Supreme Court is viewed by the public as the institute which best preserves democracy, as 39 percent of the respondents agreed, and faith in the Supreme Court declined from 68 percent to 61 percent.

Supreme Court Panel:


Only the President May Pardon
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/Flash.aspx/157940
(IsraelNN.com)
In a split decision, a three-judge tribunal of the Supreme Court ruled in principle on Tuesday that the justice minister does not have the option of not signing a pardon signed by the president, according to Maariv/nrg. The ruling requires the government to provide the president with the fullest information possible about any prisoner in question.

The decision was born of disagreement between then-President Moshe Katzav and then-Justice Minister Tzipi Livni about the reduction of a sentence for a convicted murderer, when Katzav overruled Livni's recommendation, based on the convict's behavior in prison. It could be relevant in the release of security prisoners for abducted Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit.

In his minority opinion, Justice Elyakim Rubinstein said the justice minister's option of not signing was part of the system of checks and balances.

pp. 132 - Israel has set a standard for judicial imperialism that can probably never be surpassed, and, one devoutly hopes, will never be equaled elsewhere. The sad irony is that the Supreme Court, operating with na Basic Law that specifies that Israel's values are both Jewish and democratic, is gradually producing an Israel that is neither Jewish nor democratic.

Expulsion of Palestinians (Jerusalem Post letter)

Expulsion of Palestinians
Sir, -
Mass expulsion of Palestinians without howls of protest and world condemnation? Yes, but unfortunately, only in the Gulf States. The UN obviously understands that such decisive acts are preventive measures to ensure national security from subversive elements who flout their support for their blood-brother Saddam Hussein. If only Israel would express such logic and concern for its personal health and national welfare...

WHY ISRAEL WON'T ATTACK GAZA

http://www.barrychamish.com/

WHY ISRAEL WON'T ATTACK GAZA
by Barry Chamish

In the late '90s, my work on the Rabin murder was a serious discussion topic in certain circles in Israel. One night I was at a very sabra party in Jerusalem when a man in his thirties, well wined up, started a conversation with me. He claimed he worked for Intelligence and began with the execution of Adolph Eichmann. I will now quote him, though years have past and I'm really paraphrasing our conversation as best as memory permits.

"The older guys tell me the Eichmann execution was staged. They released ashes over the sea but they weren't his. His trial was a show and they kept him in a soundproof cage in case he said the wrong thing. The deal with him was to say the right things and they'd let him live."

There was enough logic in this that I published it as a rumor and I said so. The item was well rebutted, especially by a man famously known as Rabbi Pruz, of New Jersey, who hosted Eichmann's executioner at his synagogue.

However, the gentleman continued with a story he claimed to have partially witnessed that made perfect sense. It concerned Defense Minister Rabin in the late '80s:

"Rabin wanted Israel out of Lebanon but the Lebanese government was too unstable to cut an agreement with. The Shiites under Hizbullah were forcing Israel out with a very demoralizing murder campaign against the army and he had to deal with them to make any agreement stick. He insisted on a thin security zone along the border to prevent armed attacks on Israeli territory, but he was willing to pull out of the rest of the country. But his zone was no good against Katyusha rockets or artillery shells flying over it.

"He ended up with a secret deal with Hizbullah and pulled out of Lebanon in stages to test whether they'd keep it. Rabin realized he couldn't demand a full cessation of rocket or artillery attacks against Israel. But he could make them more acceptable if there was only one target, that being Kiryat Shmoneh."

To guide the unacquainted. You drive north from Tiberius, which is below sea level and climb a steep road. You look back and see the The Puddle Of Galilee and imagine the day you can finally walk across the whole lake, perhaps in five or six years. You now have reached the top of the the climb and you turn right. You pass the lovely Bohemian-style town of Rosh Pina, the famous archeological site of Tel Khatzor until you finally arrive at a town of 15,000, resting on a mountain, Kiryat Shmoneh.

"Kiryat Shmoneh is 90% Sephardi and 85% of them are Moroccan. To the establishment, that made the town expendable. As Defence Minister, Rabin's first duty was to protect the Ashkenazi Labor/left kibbutzim around Kiryat Shmoneh, and the Ashkenazi towns along the border. If you want to know the safest places to live in the country they are Metulla, Rosh HaNikra, or Naharia. Rabin's deal means Hizbullah won't touch them."

Call it a one, albeit likely, source, or call it rumor mongering, but this item spread throughout the country. I met the most unlikely people espousing it back to me. It caught on because it fits reality so perfectly. In fact, Hezbullah kept its word for almost 20 years until the second Lebanon War broke out in 2006.

That said, another rumor has arrived, from a likely source. Temporarily gone are the days when I could meet Israelis at parties or they could meet me anywhere with information. For the time being, I rely mostly on electricity for anyone to communicate with me. I quote:

"...Sharon thought the PA would keep the peace in Gaza after he evacuated the Jews from there. Hamas taking over ruined his plan. When they started pounding Israel with crude rockets, the defence establishment wanted to go back into Gaza and stop the attacks. But the Bush administration went ape. That would stop their hopeless peace plans. They ordered Sharon and his Defence Ministry never to threaten the Hamas government militarily. The Pentagon gave Israel tiny border areas where the military could operate and outright banned any operation that could change the status quo and stop the rockets.

"Sharon was forced to enter into secret negotiations with Hamas to hammer out the rules of engagement. His number one concern was Ashkelon. It is Israel's fourth largest city and nearly impossible for rockets to miss from Gaza. And more frightening, the city has a broad political and national population. Something had to be sacrificed to save Ashkelon, and that something was Sderot, a mostly Moroccan town.

"The way I've been hearing it, Israel agreed not to fight a war in Gaza that would end in a regime change. Hamas could shoot as many rockets as it wanted, on condition that they miss their targets. In short, the deal was don't mass kill Jews and we'll keep you in power. Most rockets would be aimed at Sderot, or the desert. It was permitted to do damage there. But Ashkelon, and especially its power station, were to remain no-hit zones. In return, Israel offered an insurance policy. It will not prepare its people for a war against Gaza by refitting public or school bomb shelters, distribute gas masks and the like. Israel is being held captive by Hamas and the Americans.

"Hamas broke the deal once last May when Bush was in Jerusalem. They slammed a Katyusha into a shopping mall, maiming over a dozen. But otherwise, in a city as large as Ashkelon, the rockets always find 'open areas' to land in. If Hamas wanted to, it could aim at crowded football games, fairs, gatherings, just name wherever people gather. And if Israel wanted to, it could pound Gaza militarily and oust Hamas. But the way I've been told, there's a deal floating out there and neither side will break it."

**

More news but I can name the sources:

The fiesty Jerusalemite, Tova Rubin met with a sales rep from the Steimatzky book chain and convinced her to sell a selection of my books in Hebrew and English. She called to tell me that the rep informed her that all the books had been sold in a week. Tova added, "The buyer said he was your publisher." Thank you, Tova. There is no such publisher and why would he need to buy the books he published?

It's nice to be remembered by the Shabak for my good work.

The next day, my Jerusalem buddy of twenty years, Gemma Blech came to visit me. We had a fine visit and I arranged to have her interviewed on the Stan Monteith and Bill Deagle radio shows.

Gemma is the photographer for the Women in Green and for my book Bye Bye Gaza. http://www.lulu.com/content/575116 She was deeply upset by the provocateurs who had all but wrecked the protest movement and added, "The protest leaders are now getting old, and some sick. They don't appeal to people under 30. And the next generation is not producing future leaders. Our time is limited and when we go, I'm afraid, there will be no one to take over."

She named the leaders she knew, the provocateurs that everyone knows, but one name stood out for me, Yonah Baumel.

"He's doing poorly these days," she noted.

His son was one of three soldiers captured by Syria in the July, 82, Battle Of Sultan Yaacob in central Lebanon. Around the year 2000, the Commander of the soldiers' axis, Gen. Avigdor Ben Gal and his Intelligence Officer Mickey Shatz gave a small but profoundly important piece of information about the incident in the newspaper Kol Ha'ir. It seems that when Ben Gal and Shatz left camp, Ehud Barak, today's Defence Minister, and Amram Mitzneh, former Labor Party head, got on the radio and ordered a religious army brigade to enter a Syrian ambush. Twenty three Israelis died in the Sultan Yacob mess.

Not said was that Labor officers like Barak and Mitzneh were sabotaging Menachem Begin's winning war. And this fact was ignored by Yonah Baumel when I told him what had to be done to save his son. He was a tall, healthy man when I met him. I told him to hunt down Ben Gal and Shatz, verify their facts, call a press conference, and expose then Prime Minister Barak as a murderer of Jews. Sadly, he didn't do what had to be done and I didn't find out why until Barak's most recent appointment as Defence Minister. Yonah, almost, bravely announced that Barak was unfit for the office because he was involved in his son's kidnapping.

I reported on the incident and a priest wrote me from England protesting my piece. I assured him that every fact about Barak was accurate. He replied that I was right about Barak but wrong to write the soldiers' had been killed. The priest was working with Yonah to have his son released, almost a quarter of a century after he was taken prisoner. I wrote back saying that I hoped I was wrong and he was alive.

Few men lived as painful a life as Yonah Baumel, and few men could have remained so faithful to his son, and to the political system that took him away. Yonah believes the Israeli government can retrieve his son. So he remains true to an old ideal. But the truth is it can't because its Defence Minister was the one who stole his son from him.

I'm sorry to hear you're not well, Yonah. We need you to fully recover. You have one more vital task to complete.

Yitzhak Rabin murdered to empower Shimon Peres to divide Jerusalem?

"Israeli Penal Code – 1977, Section 97(b) A person who, with intent that any area be withdrawn from the sovereignty of the State or placed under the sovereignty of a foreign state, commits an act calculated to bring this about, is liable to life imprisonment or the death penalty."


Israel has this law on the books, but will they enforce it before it's too late? The worst offender is Shimon Peres. Yitzhak Rabin exposed Shimon Peres as "an indefatigable subversive." Yet, shamefully, Shimon Peres has survived to this day, protected by the corrupt Israeli oligarchy that are servants to their German-Jesuit masters, as the Jewish homeland continues to be dismembered, the Third Temple dismantled, and Jerusalem undermined!

Isaiah 3:12
As for My people, children are their oppressors, And women rule over them. O My people! Those who lead you cause you to err, And destroy the way of your paths.

Isaiah 9:16
For the leaders of this people cause them to err, And those who are led by them are destroyed.

Shimon Peres has collaborated with the bloody Roman Catholic Cult (aka the Babylonian Mystery religion) and Germans to transfer Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem to them, fulfilling their dream that will become the world's worst nightmare!

Treacherous Israeli leaders deserve the death penalty! Apparently, too many Israelis (and Jews in self-imposed exile) prefer lies and delusions to the plain truth of the Bible and history. Clearly, the sheep are on their way to the slaughter the German-Jesuit EU prepares!

Teacher Who Refused to Glorify Rabin - Reinstated Once & For All

Teacher Who Refused to Glorify Rabin - Reinstated Once & For All
by Hillel Fendel

(IsraelNN.com) An 8-year-old political-legal saga has ended, with a court decision on Sunday forcing the Education Ministry to reinstate a teacher who criticized Yitzchak Rabin and the "Rabin Legacy."

The Jerusalem District Court ruled on Sunday that a previous Education Ministry decision not to allow the teacher, Yisrael Shiran, to teach is null and void.

The story began in October 2000, a few weeks after Palestinian Authority terrorists began the Oslo War, when Shiran circulated a letter calling for a change in the upcoming commemorations of the 5th anniversary of Rabin's assassination. He wrote that because Rabin was the chief authority responsible for the situation in which Israel found itself, and had caved in and given weapons to the enemy, "the Education Ministry must stop commemorating the so-called 'Rabin Peace Legacy.'"

Shiran concluded, "We will under no circumstances agree that a man who gave war materials to the enemy that stands upon us to destroy us should be one about whose legacy, path and character we must commemorate." Shiran condemned the actual murder, writing that his call comes "despite the great shock at the very act of the repulsive murder, which should be discussed and condemned!"

With the encouragement of then-Tourism Minister Yuli Tamir - a former Peace Now founder who currently serves as Education Minister, Shiran was immediately suspended from the school in which he taught. However, he turned to the courts, where he was ultimately vindicated and awarded compensation from the Education Ministry.

Another Round, A Year Ago
A year ago, once again the Education Ministry - and specifically, the head of the Haifa District, Aharon Zebeida - informed the Parents Association of the Moriah Barkai School in Haifa that it could not employ Shiran as a teacher in its school.

The parents and Shiran promptly filed suit, and District Court Judge David Heshin handed down his ruling yesterday, once again exonerating Shiran. The judge also ordered the Education Ministry to allow Shiran to work, and to pay Shiran 30,000 shekels in damages plus legal costs.

Most significantly, Heshin implied that the only reason Zebeida sought to prevent Shiran from working was his resentment at Shiran's earlier court victories over him.

"It is hard to avoid the conclusion," Judge Heshin wrote, "that the true reason for the refusal to employ Shiran is connected with the 'Rabin story' [of 2000]."

Attorney Nitsana Darshan-Leitner, who represented Shiran and the parents, summed up as follows:
"This is a clear victory of individual rights over the narrrow political interests of powerful figures in the Education Ministry. This courageous legal ruling prevents the top Education Ministry officials from persecuting a person and harming his dignity and ability to earn a living because of his beliefs. The court also showed that Yuli Tamir, who started this witch hunt [nearly eight] years ago and backed the Education Ministry's decisions, can no longer continue her policy of silencing [those with whom she does not agree]."

*****************

What should be condemned and discussed is Shimon Peres came to power over Rabin's dead body.

Yitzhak Rabin was sacrificed by the Israeli oligarchy for their German-Jesuit masters intent on occupying Jerusalem.

Open Letter to Malcolm Hoenlein and Howard Rieger

Ehud Olmert is by far the most corrupt, polarizing and destructive Prime Minister the State of Israel has ever had. One must take responsibility for one’s actions, and for the relationships one forges. Your public support of Mr. Olmert and his destructive, suicidal policies and agenda in your roles as two of the most powerful Jews in the Diaspora makes both of you culpable and liable. When Olmert is forced to leave office, you must immediately resign from your positions of Jewish leadership.

You may both argue that it is your responsibility to support whoever sits in the Prime Minister’s chair, and that the demonstration of this support does not represent a political stance.
Unfortunately, your actions during the past nearly three years, since the “disengagement,” shout out otherwise. Your job – first and foremost – is to help all Jews in need; yet, you have shirked this critical responsibility in deference to the Prime Minister’s political wishes. You have ignored the plight of the expellees from Gaza and northern Samaria until the pressure became impossible to bear. And, even then, your assistance to those 10,000 brave souls has been woefully inadequate – just enough to temporarily silence your critics. Likewise, your refusal to equip our fellow Jews in Sderot and throughout the western Negev with protection from the constant rockets and missiles from Gaza reflects a glaring, unforgivable failure in leadership.

Unfortunately, the politicization of your positions and your lack of leadership do not lie solely with their inaction and silence. In late February, 2008, the Jewish Council for Public Affairs passed a resolution endorsing the two-state ‘solution’ which completely ignores the resultant creation of a huge Jewish humanitarian crisis for the tens of thousands of new expellees and an imminent threat to Israel’s very survival. Prof. Arieh Eldad, MD, MK, head of the newly-formed Hatikva party, equates the implementation of the two-state ‘solution’ with the destruction of Israel. As the heads of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations and United Jewish Communities (UJC), respectively, you must held responsible for supporting the resolution endorsing such a destructive, suicidal policy: you must be replaced with individuals who truly have the Jewish People’s best interest at heart.

Most sincerely,

Buddy Macy

Kahane's view of the Arab/Israeli conflict

If I remember Rabbi Kahane's view of the Arab/Israeli conflict correctly, his position was that Israel should drive all the Arabs in Israel, Gaza and the West Bank out of the land completely.

In other words, exactly what the Arabs would do to the Israelis if they could.


You don't remember it correctly. Meir Kahane taught that those SWORN ENEMIES of Israel, those HOSTILE ARABS resident in the Jewish Homeland, had to go, as anybody exercising logic would agree.

Meir Kahane taught that those exceptional Arabs who are willing to live in peace within the Promised Land of Israel could stay and enjoy civil rights and such, but no political powers that could be used to undermine Israeli sovereignty.

THEY MUST GO

The Arabs, on the other hand, as is proven in the Arab-occupied parts of Israel, demand they are JUDENREIN, as Bush and Sharon and Condi Rice shamefully aided and abetted them, rewarding terrorism. And the Arabs call for the phased destruction of Israel, piece by piece, if not outright genocide against the Jews.

There is no moral equivalency between Nazi-Muslims and Meir Kahane.

The Government of Israel Seeks to Discredit Barry Chamish

I CAN NEVER GO HOME ANYMORE. BIG DEAL!

Well, my fine readers, I made the headlines in Israel again. I lost the following "legal" action:

Is calling rightist a ‘Shin Bet agent’ libelous?
Website owner Barry Chamish ordered by court to pay Itamar Ben-Gvir NIS 36,000 in damages
Aviram Zino
Published: 03.06.08, 11:25 / Israel News

Barry Chamish, owner of several internet websites, was ordered Thursday by the Magistrates’ Court to pay extreme right-wing activist Itamar Ben-Gvir NIS 36,000 (about $10,000) for referring to the latter as a Shin Bet agent on one of his sites.

Magistrates' Court Judge Oded Shaham ruled that this statement is libelous in nature, and ordered Chamish to pay Ben-Gvir the aforementioned sum in damages.

According to the court's verdict, on April 15, 2005, Hamish published an article on his website entitled "Eskins Folly".

In the aforementioned article, Hamish stated that "Ben Gvir is clearly …a Shin Bet agent, a provocateur. He had committed criminal offenses so many times over…. He is on trial every other month but is always acquitted on some technicality…" Several additional articles in this vane are furthermore quoted in the verdict.

Judge Shaham noted that "these publications portrayed Ben-Gvir as a dishonest and dangerous man. Ben-Gvir was deemed a traitor to his right-wing cause in these articles, and was even accused of committing fraud.

"Some of these articles indicate that Ben-Gvir, while apparently opposed to the Gaza pullout, worked actively to thwart all opposition to the disengagement, and others even stated that he convinced a man to stone an innocent bystander to death. All of these assertions undoubtedly constitute libel."

In reaction to the verdict Ben-Gvir stated, "I have no doubt that some of the malicious rumors circulating about me originated from Shin Bet, and were designed to cause rifts and arguments.

"I never, however, stopped working on behalf of the Jewish people and the ;and of Israel, irrespective of how hard the Left has tired to stop me."


What should be known is I didn't even fight this case. I knew it was lost in the rigged world of the Israeli court system. I found out how crooked the courts are while fighting Avigdor Eskin. After losing the case, as is my right, I submitted an appeal based on another trial where Eskin told the court that, "I have worked for the Shabak." Two witnesses, attorney Dov Even-Or and my lovely girlfriend at the time, Zippora, watched me take the court files to be notarized and submit the appeal to the judge. And they watched the judge flaunt Israeli law by refusing to accept my right to appeal. I knew then that I was supposed to lose and all legal avenues would be employed to defend a state agent.

In my last months in Israel, I reported that Sharon was poisoned just before his stroke and then, I had a stroke. This was followed by time-wasting and expensive law suits and concluded with a car "accident" that almost killed me. I ran for my life and if police snitch Ben Gvir expects to see even a dime from me, it won't ever be in Israel. I don't accept the Israeli courts as legitimate houses of justice, nor do I accept the Israeli government as the rightful rulers of the Jews. In that cuckoo land, calling someone an agent of the secret services is libelous and writers can't present objective facts lest they feel the wrath of the Mafia's courts. ( see those facts at the end of the article).

Israel wanted to shut me down, so I join the ranks of Jonathan Pollard or Tzaviya Sariel who have been bitterly punished by exposing how rotten the rulers of the place truly are. So, I can never go home anymore.
Big deal! Read an attorney's summation of my trial:

Dear Barry.

I wanted to share some thoughts about your case involving Itamar G'vir.

No one will ever know who is truly Shabak. Shabak is not compelled to openly identify themselves as the accusers in cases against Jews.

Facetiously, a person never arrested is sure to be Shabak (G'vir?) but then a person frequently arrested may also be Shabak (to be jail shtinker). So then who is really Shabak?

Now since truth is a complete defense (in civilized courts) to libel and slander, if G'vir is Shabak and you could prove it, you should be exempt from damages. But it is "legally" impossible to prove this in an Israeli court given the secrecy of the secret service. This defense was never available to you.

More puzzling, since Shabak is "godlike" in Israel (their allegations in court are infallible) how can it be actionable to call someone "Shabak?" Wouldn't such an identification be praiseworthy? Shouldn't you then be entitled to a reward or bonus?

To add to the confusion , the Courts of Israel traditionallly don't give damages for the loss of the reputation of a "right wing extremist" nor extract them from a left wing Bolshevik. Rabbi Meir Kahane was called a "Nazi" (contrary to law). His cause of action for damages was dismissed. Kastner, the capo, was judged "defamed" and paid a perutah in damages.

How could it happen that Barry Chamish was compelled to pay damages to Itamar G'vir reputed to be a "right wing extremist" for labeling G'vir "Shabak"?

This conclusion comes to mind.
The government of Israel wanted to discredit Barry Chamish.
The government of Israel wanted to make Barry Chamish appear to be unworthy of belief.
The government of Israel wanted to punish Barry Chamish for revealing uncomfortable
truths.
The government of Israel wanted to make it expensive for Barry Chamish, or any others to speak freely and critically.

To do this, the Issurreal government used the power of its corrupt courts to intimidate and silence individual freedom.

Honest and reasonable people know that Barry Chamish is right, that his premise is true, and that this assault against him is just another attempt by the corrupt Israeli oligarchy to shut him up. Regardless, the blood of Yitzhak Rabin still cries out for justice, as his murderers remain free.

Rabbi Meir Kahane Remembered in Jerusalem

by IsraelNN Staff

(IsraelNN.com) Hundreds of people participated in a memorial ceremony and study day in memory of Rabbi Meir Kahane in Jerusalem Tuesday, marking the 17th anniversary of the fiery rabbi and political leader's death at the hands of an Arab assassin.

Rabbi Kahane founded the controversial Jewish Defense League in the US which promoted a proud and forceful Jewish response to acts of anti-Semitism. He raised the issue of oppressed Russian Jewry to public consciousness through demonstrations which often turned violent at Russian sports, cultural, and political events. Upon making aliyah (immigrating to Israel) in 1971, he founded the Kach party and was elected to Knesset in 1984 for one term until being banned from politics through the the Anti-Racist Law of 1988. The Kach platform called for the forcible eviction of Arabs from Israel as a solution to the Arab-Israeli conflict.

Rabbi Kahane published numerous books including classical Torah commentaries and analysis of socialogical trends in the Jewish world.He wrote a column in the USA's largest orthodox newspaper, The Jewish Press.

Following a Torah study session Tuesday morning at Rabbi Kahane's Yeshiva of the Jewish Idea (a school for Higher Torah Learning), a memorial ceremony was held at his grave in Jerusalem's Giv'at Shaul neighborhood. In the evening, students and followers gathered for lectures in his memory. Organized by Rabbi Kahane's disciple Dr. Michael Ben-Ari, the evening is to be the first of a series of such memorial study sessions to advance the Rabbi's ideology and teachings.
Rabbi Yehuda Kroizer, head of the Yeshiva of the Jewish Idea, spoke of Rabbi Kahane's vision of the State of Israel as the beginning of the Jewish nation's redemption. He quoted Rabbi Kahane's opinion that he who does not see "the manifest miracles of the creation of the State of Israel" is better off dead, and recalled that Nachmanides (Ramban) had trouble finding a quorum of ten Jews in Jerusalem 700 years ago. Rabbi Kroizer noted, however, that Rabbi Kahane differentiated between the state and its present government.

Lenny Goldberg, editor of the weekly Darka Shel Torah pamphlet which includes Rabbi Kahane's teachings, devoted his lecture to Rabbi Kahane's book "Listen World, Listen Jew." The book has been printed in the U.S. in tens of thousands of copies. Goldberg said that the book helped many Jews find their Judaism and revolutionize their lives. In the book, Rabbi Kahane tells the story of a demonstration he organized for the freedom of the Prisoners of Zion in the Soviet Union – a struggle in which Rabbi Kahane's role is seen as having been crucial. Sitting in jail afterwards with the demonstrators, the rabbi saw that one of them, a long-haired "hippie," was crying. When he tried to comfort him, the young man said: "I am crying because this is the first time that I am doing something for my own nation."

Gil Ronen, a former IDF Radio reporter, told the story of how he participated in the media campaign against Rabbi Kahane when the Kach movement was at the height of its power, after the 1984 elections. Ronen explained that he was sent to interview Rabbi Kahane as part of the military station's "Day Against Racism," which was actually a day against the Kahane movement. "My purpose was to make him look as bad as possible," Ronen explained. "The tactic I chose was to play up his support for a halachic (Jewish Law) state, in the thought that some of his non-religious followers would be turned off by that."

Ronen humorously raised the possibility that the audience would stone him after his confession, and asked them to make the stoning "as quick and merciful as possible." The audience laughed, and Ronen walked off the stage in one piece.

Michael Ben-Chorin, a colorful right-wing activist from the Golan Heights and a veteran Kahane supporter, devoted his speech to memories of one of the most successful operations mounted by the Kach movement: the thwarting, in 1986, of the return of Arabs from Ikrit and Bir'am to the villages they fled from in 1948. The Israeli government had decided to allow the Arabs back to the villages in the northern Galilee, which are situated atop ancient Jewish ruins. A successful Kach media and flyer campaign in the area's communities foiled the government decision and the Arabs did not return.

The final speaker, Attorney Rachamim Cohen, who was a close confident of Rabbi Kahane, related to the audience how the Kach party, which some polls had given over 15% support, was prevented from running for the Knesset in 1988 by the passage of a Law against Racism. Cohen noted that while Rabbi Kahane's party was blocked, a radical anti-Zionist Arab-Jewish party lead by Muhammad Miari (The Unified List for Peace) was allowed to run.

************

"They hate the Sabbath and they hate the laws of Judaism and they hate the yeshivas and they hate the rabbis. And they hate being Jewish and they hate God and they hate Zionism and a Jewish state and the need to be different - and they hate Kahane for representing all this. And they hate the bitter reality of hundreds of thousands supporting and marching for and believing in all the things that they hate, and so they are prepared to use any and all means to destroy the Jews and Jewishness. And the most frightening and dangerous thing is that, in all this ugliness, I have seen and recognized the face of Hatred and Murder Past." -Rabbi Meir Kahane

"Is Israel really a Jewish State? Or a Gentilized state of Jews? There is a difference! Are we left to our own devices, our personal preferences, the "Church or synagogue of your choice" mentality? Or does God have something to say to us also?

Meir Kahane, former Israeli Parliament member, rabbi and author of Uncomfortable Questions for Comfortable Jews, was to the Jewish establishment what Herbert W. Armstrong was to traditional Christianity: an irritating “prophet” who spoke the plain truth!

If Israel had only listened to Meir Kahane they wouldn’t be staring death in the face today (Dan. 9:11). I was living at Kibbutz Shoval in Israel’s Negev desert, beautifying the grounds, when I heard that he had been murdered in New York by another Arab terrorist. When his funeral took place in Jerusalem, I was honored to attend with tens of thousands of others to show solidarity with what he boldly taught— and as a blond, stood out in the Black Sea of Haredim on tv."

--excerpt from Beyond Babylon: Europe's Rise and Fall - Chapter 3 - TRUTH OR CONSEQUENCES

Torah-observant Jews are sick and tired of the havoc UNJews, Hellenist Jews, the erev rav, have wreaked on the Promised Land of Israel, the Jewish homeland. Let us hope and pray they succeed in making Kadima and its criminal company history!

Hamas, Fatah, and the PLO - all call for Israel's destruction and genocide against the Jews. That's WHY Israel needs to treat them like the sworn enemies they are and expel them as Meir Kahane so wisely called for years ago.

Kahane was right: "They must go!"

Don't Expel Jews from Gaza!

Israel must expel from office those treacherous Jews who were accomplices to the Nazi-Muslims and expel the Nazi-Muslims from the Jewish homeland.

Young American Jews & Israel

Young American Jews & Israel
by Jonathan Rosenblum
What Jews under 35 feel towards Israel goes beyond apathy to outright resentment.
************

What else can be expected when rabbis have failed to teach that Judaism requires Jews to make the move to the Jewish Homeland, and that, at the very least, it hastens the coming of Mashiach?

If Jewish folks don't want to make aliyah they will die in the wilderness of exile physically and spiritually, as many already appear to be numbered among the living dead as Eretz Yisrael fails to enliven them with meaning and purpose to become a holy people and a "Light to all nations" - just like too many who live in Israel but whose hearts are far away, despising their biblical call and holy inheritance that Ishmael claims and the German-EU covets.

Killing Me Softly With His Gun

www.thebarrychamishwebsite.com

KILLING ME SOFTLY WITH HIS GUN by Barry Chamish

Once there were three primary protest groups in Israel. There was The Yesha Council, which was nothing more than a tool of the government. Those who know my writing will recall Council head Benzi Liberman testifying at the trial of Avigdor Lieberman that he worked with the police to keep protesters far from Gush Katif. And who will ever forget his partner Pinchas Wallerstein ordering protesters to sap their energy by sleeping outside the Knesset in tents in the midst of Jerusalem's January snowstorms?

Then there was Zo Artzeinu, which gathered tens of thousands of protesters to block roads in the late '90s. Then magically, its leader woke up one morning and told his adherents to stop the actions and join the thoroughly corrupt Likud Party. Of course, maybe 1,500 actually took his advice and Feiglin himself was prevented from ever actually sitting in the Knesset. The big boys, Binyamin Netanyahu included, had enough dirt on him to get him to betray his followers.

And that left just one, The Women In Green, which had only enough appeal to, at its best gather, perhaps, a couple of hundred activists to its events. But it was NOT a tool of the rotten governing forces deliberately destroying the country. And today, they are the only protest group left in the land.

For years I have written its leader, Nadia Matar, and begged her to quit wasting her time demonstrating against Israel's crooked leaders and instead, make any representative of the Council On Foreign Relations afraid for their lives to come to Jerusalem and further corrupt Israel's mafia rulers. On Wednesday, Sept. 19, she finally cooked up a march against the CFR's Condeleeza Rice, who showed up at Ehud Olmert's Sugar Shack for Din-Din.

GUESS WHO'S COMING FOR DINNER?

Nadia had a nasty message that simply ruined Condi's meal: "The Prime Minister and Condoleezza Rice are planning, in a secret manner, to give away Judea, Samaria and the Temple Mount and the establishment a Palestinian Nazi State there," Matar told Israel National TV. "The public has learned that we were much too delicate last time. We will not allow it this time. We will not obey and we will not stand down in the face of this treachery."

Now nobody interferes with the culinary etiquette of Condoleeza. Her digestive juices are much too delicate for that. So after the meal, and following a mild, peaceable protest with barely 100 participants, the enraged Ehud sent in his police dogs and arrested Nadia. And brutally at that. The photographer for my book, Bye Bye Gaza, Gemma Blech, photographed the atrocity. Write her at gblech@netvision.net.il and ask for shots of the after-dinner arrest soiree.

Nadia still doesn't know the brutal facts even after the near massacre at Amona, the two dozen suspicious deaths of Yesha rabbis and political leaders, the testimonies against the mad dog police by the likes of Yedidya Weinberg and many others. In fact, she doesn't even recognize my story of exposing Sharon's "stroke" after drinking tea with Shimon, Ugh, Feh, Peres and being taken to the hospital by the bodyguard, Yoram Rubin, the same Rubin who murdered Yitzhak Rabin. After convincing over half of Israel's Jews of the facts of the Rabin coup, someone didn't want me inspecting Sharon's demise too closely. Right after Sharon's stroke, I had mine. I survived, so one night I was invited to a party in a remote location where a rent-a-car almost killed me. And the police wouldn't release my file to me, my lawyer or my insurance company. It has had devastating effects on my family, but I ran from Israel to save my life.

I was on a hit list and wouldn't survive much longer in Israel. And now, so is Nadia Matar. She ruined Condi's meal. And Condi's organization has plans for the Middle East and they kill anyone who gets in their way.

The same CFR waging war on Judaism is destroying Iraq and Afghanistan and are now eyeing Iran. And if anybody dares to see too much and start talking...kaboom. The Arizona Cardinals lost their lineman Pat Tillman. He was placed on the permanent injury list after being fragged by US officers afraid he would lead an anti-war campaign. Three shots to the head from ten feet away! He was executed once while standing, while the two coup de grace shots took place while he was on the ground, already dead.

Seven soldiers serving in Iraq wrote and signed a NY Times op-ed against the war they were fighting. That was in August. By September, two were dead in a truck accident, while a third suffered a nasty wound to the head.

The CFR is mad, mad, mad. And Nadia ruined Condi's dinner in Jerusalem. Her followers must guard her against car crashes, diseases, sudden suicides, opportune terrorism, whatever will look like an accident. For her courage, she is now on the list.

Welcome aboard!

ARRESTED! Crime: Love of Land of Israel
by Nadia Matar

At the end of our Women in Green vigil, when most people had already gone home, I stayed with some 15 friends and activists who were going to help Anita and myself put back the placards and the flags into my car. Starting to walk to my car, friends saw policemen coming closer and closer to me. They immediately realized the police was trying to get me but were waiting for the supporters to leave. I am still moved to tears thinking about those wonderful friends who immediately surrounded me to protect me and said: we are not leaving before we make sure you are OK. A heavyset policeman told me: Nadia, I demand you join me at the police station. I asked him why: What did I do wrong? He answered: That we will discuss later. I order you to come with me to the police station, otherwise we will take you by force. I told him I wanted to call a lawyer to discuss what my rights are.

JERUSALEM -- An Israeli opposition group has charged that the
government seeks to prevent peaceful protests against plans to withdraw from the
West Bank.

An attorney for a Jewish anti-government activist said the Israel
Security Agency, responsible for domestic intelligence, has been
targeting right-wing protesters in an attempt to halt demonstrations against
Prime Minister Ehud Olmert. ISA and the police were said to be working
together to monitor and arrest organizers of protests against government plans to
withdraw from the West Bank.

· Steve Rodan reported in Dec. 1994 a conversation
with Yossi Beilin. He asked Beilin what security guarantees
he was offering the settlers. Beilin said: "Look.
The IDF is going to pull out. The PLO will come in.
They will carry out their operation and we will not interfere."

· Leaders of YESHA Council met with Rabin in April 1995
and asked him much the same question.
They reported, and it was in the papers, that he replied:
"The IDF will leave. The PLO will come in.
And I promise we will do our best to take care of the wounded."

· Peres was even more blunt.
During the election campaign in the spring of 1996,
he was in Gush Katif. He and his entourage learned
that since Oslo, the Jewish population of Gaza
had increased by more than 15%.
His people were taken aback because they expected
the Jews to leave. Peres is quoted by Zvi Hendel as saying,
"A few good massacres and they will leave."

(IsraelNN.com) Yedidya Weinberg, a young activist, has accused policemen of beating him while he was in police custody. Weinberg was arrested shortly after reaching the ruins of Homesh in the northern Shomron. According to Weinberg, when he refused to identify himself in the Ariel police station, police threw him to the floor, stepped on his head and knees, and threatened to break his fingers.

Weinberg was later taken before a judge, who ruled that he should never have been arrested. Traveling to Homesh is not a crime, the judge said, basing his verdict on earlier rulings.

Witness of Yedidia Weinberger - 7 Tishrei 5768
"At 7am we were near Homesh when border guards arrived and captured us. They put us into jeeps. They said for each of us to take off his packback, and they tried to burn and cut the backpacks' straps. In the end they didn't succeed and took us as we were. They never presented an order that the area was a "Closed Military Zone". They didn't inform about delays or arrest. (They reported that the arrest was at 8 and they had all day to take us to court and they didn't do this.)

We were taken to the police station in Ariel. In the station they wanted to photograph us. We refused to be identified or to be photographed and we requested that they show us proof that it is permissible for them to photograph or take fingerprints. I hid my face with my hat. Three or four policement threw me on the ground. And a borderguard watched us. One of their names was Gil Deshe and the name of another policeman was Tzvi Gelder they began to hit me. They stomped on my head with their knees and their shoes. They bent my hand backwards, the borderguard choked me and in the end succeeded to photograph me with the borderguard choking me and my hand being pulled down backwards.

"At this same time there was present Yehudit Ben Gal, an investigator who investigated me. At first she was inside the room, then she left and heard me yell at them to stop hitting me. Then they tried to take fingerprints which had nothing to do with the investigation.
Then they took us to a testing instrument to find out if we were on the list (a "touch-morph" or something like that).

I refused to give fingerprints. They bent my left hand, the investigator bent my finger and threatened to break it. He didn't have an ID tag and wore a triko shirt. Finally they succeeded to take my fingerprints by force. Afterwards they searched my backpack and put us into a holding cell. They suggested that we would be released if we agreed to some conditions and we refused. They took us to investigation with Yehudit Ben Gal. In the investigation I didn't want to say anything how could I rely on an investigator who witnessed the violence perpetrated on me and didn't react. How could I talk after being beaten and I stuck by the right to be silent.

"And then they put me into a cell. We were held one night. Only in the morning did we go before a judge. In court they said we trespassed on the law of the "Hitnatkut" [Disengagement] and the "Closed Military Zone". The Judge cut them off and screamed at the complaintants: "How is it that you bring here prisoners when the "Law of Hitnatkut" is not any more in effect and has no bearing? And as for a "Closed Military Zone" you have not produced here any Order for a Closed Military Zone.

"You have not produced any maps showing that they were arrested at all in Homesh (and indeed they were arrested in Bakra). And even if they were in Homesh how are YOU able to be there as the army said it had "Hitnatak" (cut-off) from there, so how can it be a "Closed Military Area"? Analysis of the attributes of this law is needed." He accused the police of false arrest and accused the police for not bringing the prisoners there a day beforehand.

"I want to add that they wanted to impose upon us limiting conditions, and get photos and our fingerprints. They wanted to photograph me again because the first time borderguard who was choking me was in the picture and they wanted to replace it.

"I'm stunned that the border guards who took us from the field were more respectful of us than the police at the station under working conditions in spite of the fact that we didn't trespass on any law."

"It is important that the public know that the police in Israel infringe on the law and beat people in secret. They have no real right to prevent people from dwelling in Eretz Yisrael and return to the homes they lived in before the expulsion."

"On April 19, 2007, the New York Times carried an Op Ed piece titled "The War As We Saw It" written by 7 troops who are (were) in Iraq serving in our military.
These 7 guys told the whole truth and nothing but the truth about what was really going on in Iraq. It was negative against what our leaders and talking heads are peddling to us.
Anyway, now 2 (OMAR MORA, YANCE T. GRAY) of those 7 have been killed in Iraq and a third (JEREMY A. MURPHY ) has a critical, life threatening injury. I cannot calculate the statistical odds of 3 out of 7 meeting such a fate, but it is astronomical. So astronomical that a normal person who ask in their mind, could they have been hit to retaliate for that New York Times Op Ed piece."

The War As We Saw It
By Buddhika Jayamaha, Wesley D. Smith, Jeremy Roebuck, Omar Mora, Edward Sandmeier, Yance T. Gray and Jeremy A. Murphy
The New York Times
Sunday 19 August 2007
Viewed from Iraq at the tail end of a 15-month deployment, the political debate in Washington is indeed surreal. Counterinsurgency is, by definition, a competition between insurgents and counterinsurgents for the control and support of a population. To believe that Americans, with an occupying force that long ago outlived its reluctant welcome, can win over a recalcitrant local population and win this counterinsurgency is far-fetched. As responsible infantrymen and noncommissioned officers with the 82nd Airborne Division soon heading back home, we are skeptical of recent press coverage portraying the conflict as increasingly manageable and feel it has neglected the mounting civil, political and social unrest we see every day. (Obviously, these are our personal views and should not be seen as official within our chain of command.)

http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2007/09/13/national/main3258255.shtml

(AP) The mother of an Army sergeant who died in a Baghdad vehicle accident weeks after writing a New York Times op-ed critical of the Pentagon's positive assessment of the Iraq war said Wednesday she wants the Army to explain his death.

"I want to know all the details of how he died. I want to know the truth," said Olga Capetillo, whose 28-year-old son, Sgt. Omar Mora, died Monday. "I don't understand how so many people could die in that accident. How could it be so bad?"

July 26: "Army medical examiners were suspicious about the close proximity of the three bullet holes in Pat Tillman's forehead and tried without success to get authorities to investigate whether the former NFL player's death amounted to a crime, according to documents obtained by The Associated Press... The doctors- whose names were blacked out- said that the bullet holes were so close together that it appeared the Army Ranger was cut down by an M-16 fired from a mere 10 yards or so away. The documents show that a doctor who autopsied Tillman's body was suspicious of the three gunshot wounds to the forehead. The doctor said he took the unusual step of calling the Army's Human Resources Command and was rebuffed. He then asked an official at the Army's Criminal Investigation Division if the CID would consider opening a criminal case. 'He said he talked to his higher headquarters and they had said no,' the doctor testified.
"Army attorneys sent each other congratulatory e-mails for keeping criminal investigators at bay as the Army conducted an internal friendly-fire investigation that resulted in administrative, or non-criminal, punishments.
"The three-star general who kept the truth about Tillman's death from his family and the public told investigators some 70 times that he had a bad memory and couldn't recall details of his actions.
"Also according to the documents, investigators pressed officers and soldiers on a question Mrs. Tillman has been asking all along. 'Have you, at any time since this incident occurred back on April 22, 2004, have you ever received any information even rumor that Cpl. Tillman was killed by anybody within his own unit intentionally?' an investigator asked then-Capt. Richard Scott..." (story)

Editorials in Support of Salah Uddin Shoaib Choudhury


"Bangladesh may now be among the world's most dangerous countries for journalists. That makes Mr. Choudhury's courageous stand for Muslim-Jewish dialogue all the more admirable and vital to defend".

The New York Times


************


"The Bush administration, which every year spends some $64 million on Bangladesh, has made a priority of identifying moderate Muslims and giving them the space and cover they need to spread their ideas. Mr. Choudhury has identified himself, at huge personal risk, as one such Muslim. Now that he is on the run, somewhere in the darkness of Dhaka, will someone in the administration pick up the phone and explain to the Bangladeshis just what America expects of its 'moderate and tolerant' friends?"

The Wall Street Journal


************


"The United States must encourage people like Mr. Choudhury to speak out. But when they do, it must also do all it can to protect them. Freeing Mr. Choudhury will tell others like him that when you stand against Islamists, the United States will stand with you".

The Washington Times


************


"This is why we ought to be taking notice of Choudhury. It's not just a question of saving one man's life. He is part of a threat that is facing all of us. And he is on the right side in a very long battle of ideas".

The Australian


************


"Mr. Choudhury is a man in the mold of such heroes of freedom as Václav Havel and Lech Walesa".

The New York Sun


************


"Despite the dire circumstances in which he finds himself, Choudhury remains strong, upbeat and determined".

The Jerusalem Post


************


"In a world where radical Islam is on the march, threatening moderate Muslims and non-Muslims alike, outspoken and fearless individuals like Mr. Choudhury deserve our full support. It is they, after all, who are on the front lines".

The Jewish Week


************


"Would Choudhury consider it, if along with this acknowledgment the request also nevertheless came to give up his fight and to free the family from their state of siege? The family would have enough money to lead a calm life abroad, and they would have a good chance of leaving Bangladesh despite the current legal proceedings. But for Choudhury his struggle has long ago become his. 'Who leaves the battleground, has lost', he says. 'However, whoever struggles for the right cause always wins'".

The Berliner Zeitung


************


"They are neither. They work alone, with no support, forging ahead to bring the truth into the open. The International Press Freedom Awards that recognizes courage in journalism is an important event that brings the plight of these journalists to light. But it's not enough. They deserve encouragement and support because in dangerous situations, they champion everything we hold dear, and often take for granted".

The Suburbun

General Support for Salah Uddin Shoaib Choudhury


"Now that we've found a man willing to advocate for peace and denounce extremism, we must seize the opportunity. No one else will speak out if we allow those who already have spoken to die".

Gabriel Oppenheim
The Daily Pennsylvanian


************


"So there will be no marches on Bangladesh High Commissions, no boycott calls from humbugging academics, no impassioned leading articles or op-eds in the posh papers in solidarity with one of their own profession who is being persecuted for telling the truth. Shameful —- and short-sighted. For the fate of Salah Uddin Shoaib Choudhury is our own".

Melanie Phillips
The Daily Mail

************


"While Taj al-Din al-Hilali is now an international star, having attracted worldwide headlines for his recent outpouring of Western hatred, another Muslim man has barely registered on the media's radar screen. This man is facing the death penalty charged with blasphemy, sedition and treason. He was in court on Monday. His crime? He has been advocating peace between Muslims and the West. You won't have heard of this man. But it's time you did. From a small country half a world away, Salah Uddin Shoaib Choudhury is fighting Islamic extremism the only way he can: With words and ideas".

Janet Albrechisen
The Australian


************


"In this tense atmosphere, Choudhury has paid a very heavy price for his beliefs. In November, 2003, he was arrested at Dhaka's international airport just prior to boarding a flight on his way to Israel, where he had been scheduled to deliver an address on promoting understanding between Muslims and Jews. His visit to Israel would have been the first by a Bangladeshi journalist".

Michael Freund
The Jerusalem Post


************


"Shoaib is an outspoken supporter of Muslim-Jewish and Muslim-Christian dialogue, opposes anti-Israel maximalism and has exposed the agents and activities of Islamists who have been gaining in strength and influence in his country".

Jeremy Jones
The Australian Israel Review


************


"I am reminded of a Jewish proverb that teaches us to be wise not in words but in deeds. Choudhury's deeds have brought wisdom and understanding to his country, paving the way for the peace we all desire. We could all learn from this example, and we can start by fighting Choudhury’s unfair persecution".

Anthony Weiner
The Jewish Press


************


"Surprisingly, after years of being prevented from traveling abroad, he was allowed to come to the U.S. for a week. But afterwards, he was to return to Dhaka and danger. Choudhury, the publisher and editor of a weekly English-language newspaper, has been charged with treason, sedition, and blasphemy. His alleged crimes? Advocating relations between Bangladesh and Israel, promoting interfaith respect and tolerance, and denouncing Islamic radicalism. For these transgressions, he could be sentenced to death. As it is, he's already been imprisoned, placed in isolation and tortured, while his newspaper's offices have been bombed twice".

David Harris
The Jewish Week


************


"He is a person who, because of his beliefs, is willing to go to jail and face persecution like Jews in other countries who have endured hardship, jailed because of their beliefs".

Kenneth Peskin
President,
A.J.C. Metro New Jersey


************


"He has obviously been tortured. He has overcome hardships like you and I have never seen".

Larry Freundlich
Short Hills


************


"The Talmud says that to save one person is to save a whole world. Know this: For every Shoaib Choudhury willing to risk his life to save his people from tyranny and ignorance, there is a world of others who want to speak out but are afraid. Their future ability to add their voices to his depends on the Western world’s response to him, and they are eagerly watching".

J.T.. News


************


"Listening to the smiling, good-natured journalist from Bangladesh declare himself to be a 'proud Muslim Zionist' the other day, one would never know that his views favoring Mideast peace could cost him his life in a court of law".

Gary Rosenblatt,
Editor and Publisher,
The Jewish Week


************


"The promise of 70 virgins in return for a suicidal act in which the perpetrator also kills innocent human beings is, Choudhury said, religion in bad taste. It is also a false reading of the Koran, and therefore not true Islam, he said, yet it is the form of Islam being taught to Muslim youth around the world.

He was asked about the madrassas -- could they produce educated professionals, like doctors, lawyers, and businessmen and women? They can produce lots of educated terrorists, Choudhury responded, and then asked: Can a winery produce iron?"

Seth Mandel,
The Jewish State


************


"Forty-two years old, Choudhury is that rarest of breed, a faithful Moslem who, in the belly of the beast, publicly dissents from the stifling orthodoxy of hatred and extremism that characterizes the Islamic world. There are a handful of other outspoken Moslem-born men and women (mainly the latter), but while their heroism is unquestionable, most live in the West where, although their lives remain in danger, their right to speak is at least upheld by the government. Choudhury lives in Bangladesh where he is currently on trial on spurious charges of sedition, treason and blasphemy before an Islamist judge and faces the death penalty".
