More Palestinian Authority libel

Israel's supernatural rats chase away Jerusalem's Arabs.

The Palestinian Authority has come up with yet another wild accusation about Israel. Two PA newspapers - one directly controlled by the office of PA President Mahmoud Abbas - are accusing Israel of releasing rats with supernatural qualities to chase away the Arab residents of Jerusalem.

According to the PA papers, the Israeli-Jerusalem rat is:

1. Immune to rat poison;

2. Aggressive and larger than usual;

3. Unafraid of cats and able to scare them away;

4. Highly fertile -- female rat gives birth to 140 babies a year, four times the normal average;

5. Highly selective -- Jewish residents of Jerusalem apparently are not affected by these rats.

Israel's goal, the libelous PA articles accuse, is "to turn the residents' life into a living hell, forcing them to leave." Interestingly, the articles do not mention how the rats are trained to differentiate between Jewish and Arab residents of Jerusalem.

The following are the two stories:

"...one of the most amazing things that we've read during this month is that [Israeli] settlers have been bringing chests filled with rats and releasing them in the Old City's [Arab] neighborhoods; they breed and have become a major curse... the [Arab] residents' efforts to counter this infestation have failed, especially since cats run away from these rats because of their size and ferocity... All of the conventional efforts to kill them have not succeeded, because they seem to be immune to poison and they breed in the sewers. It is known that this female rat gives birth seven times a year, each time giving birth to 20 babies; which compels Jerusalem's [Arabs] today to face the dangers of settlement and the infestation of rats..." [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, controlled by the office of Mahmoud Abbas, July 18, 2008]

"Large numbers of [Israeli] settlers have been bringing huge cages full of rats and releasing them onto the streets and alleys of the Old City [Jerusalem]...in order to turn the [Arab] residents' life into a living hell, forcing then to leave..." [Al-Ayyam, July 17, 2008] Creating libels against Israel is a pivotal aspect of the Palestinian Authority's incitement to hatred against Israel and Jews.

PMW reported earlier this month that the PA media were accusing Israel of conducting Nazi-like experiments on Palestinan prisoners (LINK).

The Muslim View of a Kingdom: Racism, Tyranny, Apartheid and Genocide

In spite of the truth that Jerusalem belongs to the Jews and is the capital of Israel, the chief of staff for Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas, Rafiq Al Husseini, lied today and threatened that Jerusalem and the Temple Mount belong to the Muslims and any Israeli action that "offends" the Mount will be answered by 1.5 billion Muslims.

This is yet another example of how Muslims dictate public policy by throwing public temper tantrums and rewriting history. Rafiq Al Husseini is just another Islamic poster child in its most recognizable form: a screaming banshee who delights in threatening racism, tyranny, apartheid and genocide.

Religion of peace, my ass.

OIC to declare a "memorial day" for massacres against Muslims

Creating policy via temper tantrum allows the west to forget about the more than 11,000 innocent people who have been murdered by Muslims since 9/11. From Today's Zaman:

Organization of the Islamic Conference (OIC) member countries plan to declare a day of memorial for massacres and genocide committed against Muslim communities in various countries throughout the 20th century.

On Friday, representatives of OIC youth organizations came together at İstanbul's Grand Cevahir Hotel for a meeting organized by the Islamic Conference Youth Forum for Dialogue and Cooperation (ICYF-DC) to discuss programs to create awareness of Muslim grievances over the past within the younger generation and foster solidarity among OIC members.

"OIC countries are being confronted by different Islamophobic groups that have developed a plethora of myths of so-called historic violence Muslim countries [perpetrated] against others. That is a conscious strategy to create an image of Muslim peoples as ruthless and Islam as a culture of violence.

Former Arab Warlord Ready for Coexistence with Israel

Spilt milk, Mohammed. From Former Arab Warlord Ready for Coexistence with Israel:

As a leading figure in Islamic Jihad in the West Bank, Mohammed Ghawanmeh, 52, of Jalazone spent most of his working life in and out of Israeli prisons. "But since I was released from prison (in 2000), I have looked away from the past. There is no other option but to form peace with Israel and get on with building a state." "We are not going back [to homes in Israel] and we know it," he says. "If they offered anything like what Barak, Arafat and Clinton talked about in 2000, we should absolutely, positively take it, no questions asked," he says.

Palestinian exhibit depicts children in crematorium

More mendacity from Islam, the keeper of falsehoods, revisionism, terror and bloodlust. From PMW:

Palestinian children in Gaza were gathered for an exhibition that depicts Israel burning children in a crematorium. Young children are seen standing beside dolls being placed into a model of a cremation oven.

According to the article in Al Ayyam, "The National Committee for defense of Children from the Holocaust opened its activities with a Holocaust exhibit. The Exhibit include a large oven and inside it small children are being burned, the picture speaks for itself." [Al Ayyam, March 20, 2008]


Another part of the exhibit was a black platform with the words, "Stop the Israel's Holocausts." [Al Hayat Al Jadida, March 20, 2008]

Palestinian Authority (Fatah) TV already already taught children in the past that Israel burned children in the Holocaust. With ovens pictured in the background and actors playing dead children as part of a musical play, an actor in a video declared:

"They [Israel] are the ones who did the Holocaust ... They opened the ovens for us to bake human beings... and when one oven stopped burning they lit a hundred more ovens." [PA TV March 25, 2004]

Paris's international book fair causes uproar by honouring Israeli writers

More Muslim hubris and mendacity. Via The Canadian Press:

Israeli writers will be the toast of the Paris international book fair in March but some Arab intellectuals argue that honouring Israel's literature has brought dishonour upon France.

The Islamic Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization urged its 50 member states this week to boycott the March 14-19 event.

Each year the international fair puts the spotlight on one country. This year it is inviting 39 writers from Israel, including David Grossman, Amos Oz, A. B. Yehoshua and Aharon Appelfeld. A similar controversy is brewing about the May book fair in Turin, Italy, which is also highlighting Israeli works.

The Islamic organization said its boycott call was a "response to the special standing (the fair) gives to Israel despite its atrocities, oppression and imposed starvation and siege against the Palestinian people."

It also argued that the Paris fair celebrates the 60th anniversary of Israel, a claim Eyrolles denies. He said it was merely coincidence, as Israel has asked to be honoured for five years in a row but there was a waiting list. Many of the Israeli writers being honoured are firm supporters of Palestinian statehood, he said.

Lebanon announced Wednesday that it would boycott the Paris event, a decision that French Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Pascale Andreani said was "extremely regrettable. "

The farrowing crate is rattling

Straight out of the snout of the Muslim enemy, from the website of Ezzedeen Al-Qassam Brigades [the armed branch of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas)] Information Office, September 13th, 2007. (www[dot]alqassam[dot]ps/english/?action=showsta&sid=602):

Nous accusons!

Excerpted from Melanie Phillips:

Tomorrow, [Update: legal argument took place on September 12 while the full hearing is now scheduled to start on September 19, 2007. ] an appeal starts in Paris in a case which encapsulates all that is most rotten and murderous about the media war against Israel and its truly monstrous consequences. At the beginning of the second intifada, an event occurred which more than any other was to incite mass hysteria against Israel, lead directly to the terrorist murder of Jews and whip up demonstrations and incitement against Israel and the west throughout the Arab and Muslim world. On September 30, 2000 viewers around the world watched a short news clip screened by the TV station France 2 which appeared to show the killing by the Israel Defence Force of a Palestinian boy, Muhammad al-Dura, at Netzarim junction in Gaza. The boy was shown crouching with his father behind a barrel next to a concrete wall in an apparently vain attempt to shelter from the gun-battle between Israel and the Palestinians that was raging around them. In his commentary on the incident France 2's Israel correspondent, Charles Enderlin, declared that the IDF had killed the boy.

This footage become the iconic image of the intifada and the Palestinian 'struggle' against Israel. It served to incite terrorist violence and atrocities as well as inflaming hatred of Israel around the world. It was used in Palestinian educational materials to incite other children to turn themselves into human bombs. It was used repeatedly in al Qaeda's videotape of the beheading of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl in 2002. Itwas used to whip Iraqi Republican Guards into a frenzy before the US invasion of Iraq in 2003. And most stomach-churning of all, it was invoked by the Palestinian mob in Ramallah that lynched IDF reservists YosefAvrahami and Vadim Novesche, who had taken a wrong turning, two weeks after the alleged al Durah killing.

The consequences of their fatal error are well known: they were tortured and beaten to death in the Palestinian Authority police station, and their lifeless bodies thrown out of the station's second story window to a throngof men howling, Allahu Akbar -God is great! They commenced to dismember and disembowel the soldiers' corpses, and then passed the entrails on a platter to a hysterical mob numbering in the thousands who rejoiced as they literally chewed and swallowed the remains of their hated Jews. What is lesser known is that while eating the flesh and blood of their victims, in satisfaction and triumph, the good citizens of Ramallah chanted, not only, Allahu-Akbar- but the name of Mohamed al Durah!But it quickly became apparent that the IDF could not have killed al Durah. Initially, the Israeli government had taken responsibility for his death, but it later concluded that the whole thing was a fraud because it wasphysically impossible for the IDF to have shot at the al Duras from their position that day at the Netzarim junction. Several other independent commentators came to the same conclusion, including extensive investigations by the French-language Israeli news agency MENA, a German television documentary film by Esther Schapira called Three Bullets and a Dead Child: Who Shot Muhammad al-Dura? and the Atlantic Monthly; while Richard Landes, a Boston University historian, who has claimed on his blog, Augean Stables, his website, The Second Draft, and in three films-Pallywood, The Birth of an Icon, and Icon of Hatred-that the al Dura 'killing' was staged.

On November 24, 2004, Philippe Karsenty, founder of the French online media watchdog, Media Ratings, sent out an email to his subscribers in which he accused the France 2 television network of staging the al Durah 'killing'. He called for the resignation of both Charles Enderlin and France 2's News Director, Arlette Chabot, for their role in promulgating the alleged hoax. France 2 and Enderlin sued Karsenty for defamation, and won. Tomorrow sees the opening of Karsenty's appeal. The behaviour to date of both the French judges and France 2 has been simply outrageous.

The footage in question was filmed by a Palestinian cameraman, Talal abu Rahma. France 2 is holding 27 minutes of raw footage of his film which it refuses to release. Independent investigators have repeatedly asked it to do so. It refuses point blank. Why? Since transmitted parts of this footage, why does it refuse to release the rest of it? The most likely reason is that the unscreened footage proves that the 'killing' was indeed nothing of the kind.

Saudi Clerics Urge Palestinians to Maintain Jihad Against Israel

From Saudi Clerics Urge Palestinians to Maintain Jihad Against Israel:

Several key Saudi Muslim clerics this week urged Palestinians not to give up jihad against Israel. "Maintain the way of jihad and preaching which has spread among the Muslim Palestinian people. Support it and beware of it easing up," said a June 30 statement published on Islamist websites signed by 16 leading clerics including Abdel-Rahman al-Barrak and Nasser al-Omar.

The fraudulent religion of peace

More quotes from followers of Islam, the religion of death, that the western liberal media tries to bury. From Jpost:

Sheik Ahmad Bahr, acting Speaker of the Palestinian Legislative Council, declared during a Friday sermon at a Sudan mosque that America and Israel will be annihilated and called upon Allah to kill Jews and Americans "to the very Last One." Following are excerpts from the sermon that took place last month, courtesy of MEMRI.

Ahmad Bahr began: "'You will be victorious' on the face of this planet. You are the masters of the world on the face of this planet. Yes, [the Koran says that] 'you will be victorious,' but only 'if you are believers.' Allah willing, 'you will be victorious,' while America and Israel will be annihilated. I guarantee you that the power of belief and faith is greater than the power of America and Israel. They are cowards who are eager for life, while we are eager for death for the sake of Allah. That is why America's nose was rubbed in the mud in Iraq, in Afghanistan, in Somalia, and everywhere."

Bahr continued and said that America will be annihilated, while Islam will remain. The Muslims "'will be victorious, if you are believers.' Oh Muslims, I guarantee you that the power of Allah is greater than America, by whom many are blinded today. Some people are blinded by the power of America. We say to them that with the might of Allah, with the might of His Messenger, and with the power of Allah, we are stronger than America and Israel."

The Hamas spokesperson concluded with a prayer, saying: "Oh Allah, vanquish the Jews and their supporters. Oh Allah, count their numbers, and kill them all, down to the very last one. Oh Allah, show them a day of darkness. Oh Allah, who sent down His Book, the mover of the clouds, who defeated the enemies of the Prophet, defeat the Jews and the Americans, and bring us victory over them."

Know your enemies department: Hamas Qassam Brigades: "don't expect the new government to take any security action"

Out of the mouths of the murderous savages themselves. From the official website of the Hamas Ezzedeen AL-Qassam Brigades (www dot alqassam dot ps/english/?action=showdetail&fid=397). Typos, grammatical errors, and misspellings are exactly as found:

When asked about that the what you expect this resistance to comprise from the new government, Abu Obaida, the spokesman of the Qassam Brigades answered that We don't expect the government to take any security action against resistance factions as with the case in previous governments but the government will not be involved directly in the resistance that is for the resistance factions to conduct.

Our task is to resist the occupation and reply to its crimes through out the Gaza Strip and the West Bank We don't expect the government to help us directly but we don't expect the
government also to coordinate with occupation forces against resistance activists.

Abu Obaida added that "I would expect that Palestinians as a whole are in support of resistance and trying to grow the wide between government and resistance factions is not something
accurate."

Palestinians people as a whole government, Palestinian factions, political parties are under occupation and the Palestinian people as a whole exercise their right to resist and so trying to divide government and people and factions is something that is very realistic.

Regarding any action from the Qassam Brigades against the occupation forces, the Brigades will not stop its military operations as the occupation forces did not stop their aggression against the Palestinian people.

Iranian President: Palestinian resistance prepares ground for complete exit of Zionists, Hamas to continue resistance

Ahmadinejad, the demented and feverishly deformed capuchin monkey, on Tuesday called on Muslim states "to support the popular government of Palestine." From Islamic Republic News Agency:

"The Zionist regime of Israel is in its worst period of life and its condition is deteriorating. Muslim states are required to support the popular government of Palestine," said President Ahmadinejad in a meeting with head of the Hamas political bureau Khalid Mashal.

"Divine victory, which is the result of resistance and faith of the oppressed Palestinian nation, is imminent. The Palestinian people should be wise and support the Palestinian government-elect, thus preparing the ground for liberation of noble Qods and their freedom from the Zionist regime," announced the President.

"As vigilance of Palestinian movements nullified recent plots and conspiracies of the enemies of Palestinian people, the Palestinian groups should be united, continue resistance, have faith in God and safeguard aspirations of the Palestinian nation, thus preparing the ground for complete withdrawal of Zionists from the holy Palestinian territory," he announced.

Ok, monkey-boy, why are there still refugee camps in areas under the PA for the past, oh, 60 years? What about how the Jordanians and Egyptians kept the Palestinians in refugee camps, doesn't that matter?
Could it be that the billions of dollars that the UNWRA has sent there goes to terrorist groups like Hamas, Islamic Jihad, El Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, or Hezbollah? How did Yassir Arafat achieve his $300 million in wealth? Why aren't these funds distributed for humanitarian use? But that doesn't matter to a moral pygmy like you. It only matters if Israel can get blamed somehow, otherwise, forget it and carry on with your typical Islamist dishonesty.

Furthermore, the reason why Israel keeps a tight lid on the Palestinian territories is because they stupidly won't shut up about the fact that their ultimate goal is to destroy Israel at the first given opportunity.

Honestly, I have never met a bigger bunch of morons in my life. Muslim Arabs want to continue to call for Israel's destruction, of course, launched from the West Bank and Gaza, yet they refuse to understand why Israel keeps a tight grasp over them. How wonderful it would be if Arabs would shut the eff up about destroying Israel, and instead, launch a successful peace campaign, end their ethnocentric boycott of Jewish anything, stop their calls for holy war, stop misappropriating Jewish holy sites, and then we'll talk. Arabs only want Israel to be weak so they can overwhelm her with their hostile Muslim hoards.

What a perverted disease Islamism has become. Too bad there is no cure.

More pictures of the Mughrabi Gate repair work

JoeSettler went yesterday to see what all the fuss was about. He wrote "Lots of security and soldiers. I took a few photos and put them on my blog".

Check out the photos, readers. The photos prove that the muslim mosque is nowhere near where the repair work is being done. You will see that the repair site is in the Western Wall plaza. The muslim mosque is on the other side of the Western Wall.

I'm going to tell you, folks, this is just one more example of muslim hysteria and muslim mendacity, because hey, they haven't killed any Jews in a while, and the adherents of the fake "religion of peace" are itching for an excuse to kill some now.

Fatah Al-Aqsa Brigades launch new projectile-launching operation against Israel, codenamed 'Call of Al-Aqsa'

From the Arab news source, Ma'an:

The Al-Aqsa Brigades, the main military wing of Fatah, announced on Monday a new codename for their projectile-launching operations against Israeli towns. Reportedly in retaliation for the Israeli "aggressions" on the Al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem, the new codename is 'The Call of Al Aqsa'. In a statement issued Monday, the brigades announced a general alert inside and outside Palestine. They said that they will attack the enemy everywhere. They also warned that hundreds of allegedly developed projectiles, called 'Al-Aqsa 103' projectiles, will be launched against Israel.The statement called upon the coming unity government to adopt "loud andclear" the choice of resistance. The brigades also urged all the factions to return to the choice of resistance and confront the occupation. The brigades announced earlier on Monday morning that they had launched three homemade projectiles at the southern Israeli town of Sderot.

The signing of the Mecca agreement [No mention of end to violence against Israel]

[Dr. Aaron Lerner - IMRA: Possibly rhetorical question soon to be voiced by Hamas: If "moderate" Mahmoud Abbas is considered the hero of the West and simply a fantastic all around guy even though he calls for turning guns toward Israel and only opposes terror attacks if and when he beleives they do do not serve Palestinian interests, doesn't this set such a low enough standard for what is considered to be "respect" for PLO agreements such that anything Haniyeh does is OK?]

An excerpt from The signing of the Mecca agreement :

Mecca - Ma'an exclusive - Fatah and Hamas have signed the Mecca agreement. The media advisor to Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas, Nabil 'Amr, read the text of the agreement and the letter of assignment to Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh.

The following came in the agreement text:

. Assuring the prohibition of Palestinian bloodshed and the assurance of national unity to
achieve the legitimate aims of the Palestinian people.

. Agreeing on counting the language of dialogue as the basis for solving all conflicts
between brothers.

. Agreeing on establishing a unity government and to start taking constitutional procedures to its dedication immediately.

. Agreeing on proceeding in the procedures of reform of the Palestine Liberation Organisation (PLO) based on the Cairo agreements and the Damascus announcement.

. Assuring the principle of political partnership on the basis of political pluralism.

Signed in Holy Mecca on 21

Iran to Hamas: "Wait quietly; in four months we'll have a dramatic announcement"

More fright-scares from Iran. Most likely the expected announcement from Iran is that they have a working nuclear reactor. From Maariv's Hebrew edition, Dec. 15, 2006, no link provided:

"Hamas Prime Minister Ismail Haniyeh received a promise from Iran of extensive economic aid, cash, military cooperation, and also good news, from his perspective. Lower your profile, calm the situation, the Iranians told Haniyeh. In four months we're going to issue a statement that will dramatically change the strategic balance in the Middle East. According to Israeli intelligence, the Iranians have promised to make an important announcement at the next Persian new year, which begins the third week in March 2007."

Myth of "Arab East Jerusalem"

The Myth of "Arab East Jerusalem"

If a reporter were to write a story today which referred to Communist East Berlin, his editor would immediately call him on the carpet. The reason is simple. Communist East Berlin hasn’t existed for eight years. But if that same reporter were to write a story referring to another fiction, "Arab East Jerusalem," no correction would be made, even though "Arab East Jerusalem" hasn’t existed for 30 years.

Between 1948 and 1967, the Jordanian army occupied the Old City of Jerusalem and adjacent neighborhoods. They made these into "Arab East Jerusalem" by expelling the Jews who lived there, and whose families had lived there for generations. Then in June of 1967 "Arab East Jerusalem" ceased to exist. Yet the media, President Clinton and world leaders refer to "Arab East Jerusalem" as if it still exists. Two simple truths must be stated loud and clear:

Jerusalem is united, and has been since 1967. Just as there is no longer any such thing as East Berlin, there is no longer any such thing as "Arab East Jerusalem."

Today there are more Jews living in East Jerusalem than Arabs. So, to be accurate, if anything, the area should be called "Jewish East Jerusalem."
