Israel on Saddam: "Iraqis Have Made Their Choice"

















Israel on Saddam:

"Iraqis Have Made Their Choice"

Original post: IsraelNationalNews.com

10:50 Dec 31, '06 / 10 Tevet 5767

(IsraelNN.com) Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and other top officials in the government had no official reaction to Saturday’s execution of former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein.

The only comment came as the response to a question posed by a reporter about Saddam’s hanging. “Iraqis have made their choice, and we hope for the Iraqi people that they establish a stable country for Iraq and the Middle East,” replied Olmert spokeswoman Miri Eisen.

Deputy Defense Minister Ephraim Sneh made several comments in an interview with Israel Radio, however. “We need to remember that there was an Israeli angle,” he said, reminding listeners that Saddam paid $25,000 to families of each suicide bomber who murdered Israeli civilians, and $10,000 to the families of each terrorist who died fighting IDF soldiers. “He sent 39 (Scud) missiles to Israel [during the 1991 Gulf War]... and tried to prepare nuclear weapons to be used against us,” he added.

Israel destroyed the Osirah nuclear reactor that was built near the Iraqi capital of Baghdad in 1981.

A Reminder of Just Who Saddam's Victim's Were

















It is appalling that in all the media frenzy any person of stature, or not, would question the fairness of Saddam Hussein’s trial. For you sympathizers, here is a reminder of just who a few of Saddam’s victims were.

This man terrorized his own people for decades, in addition to his war crimes. It will never be fully known just how many Saddam victims there actually were. Thousands, tens of thousands, more ....... ????

Our tears should be for his victims, not for this insane, cruel, heartless, terrorist dictator.

Baker-Hamilton Group Seeks Israel’s Return of Golan for a Secure Peace with Syria

Baker-Hamilton Group Seeks Israel’s Return of Golan for a Secure Peace with Syria

Text of Iraq Study Group’s five Middle East recommendations


December 6, 2006, 9:29 PM (GMT+02:00)

Original article released by: Debka

( This is an example of the insane, suicidal policies which are threatening Israel's continued existence.)

[ My husband's first love is BOXING, and to use an analogy that he will appreciate, I would like to compare this study group's recommended withdrawal of Israel, from the Golan, with that of a Champion boxer going into the ring, with both his hands, and his feet bond, and wearing a blindfold, and expecting to remain the champ. It won't happen, (apart from Divine intervention, that is) !! This is the same vulnerable position recommended that Israel assume in this group's laughable report. Laughable, that is, except for the sad fact that it's not a joke !! As Debka's article points out, this so-called, "Iraq Study Group", is serious about their recommendations !! ]


Read the article below:

Five of the Iraq Study Group’s 79 recommendations released December 6, 2006 in Washington relate to the Middle East conflict.

Arguments:

There is no military solution to this conflict.

The vast majority of the Israeli body politic is tired of perpetual war.

No American administration – Democratic or Republican – will ever abandon Israel.

Political engagement and dialogue are essential in the Arab-Israeli dispute.

The only basis for peace is that set forth in the UN Security Council Resolutions 242 and 338 and in the principle of “land for peace.”

The only lasting and secure peace will be a negotiated peace.

This effort would strongly support moderate Arab governments in the region, especially the democratically elected government of Lebanon and the Palestinian Authority under President Mahmoud Abbas.

Recommendation 13: There must be a renewed and sustained commitment by the US to a comprehensive Arab-Israeli peace on all fronts: Lebanon and Syria, and President Bush’s June 2002 commitment to a two-state solution for Israel and Palestine.

Recommendation 14: This effort should include – as soon as possible – the unconditional calling and holding of meetings under US or Quartet auspices between Israel and Lebanon and Syria on the one hand, and Israel and the Palestinians (who acknowledge Israel’s right to exist) on the other.

The purpose of these meetings would be to negotiate peace as was done at the Madrid Conference in 1991.

Recommendation 15: Concerning Syria, some elements should be:

Syria’s full adherence to UN Security Council Resolution 1701 of Aug 2006 which provides the framework for Lebanon to regain sovereign control over its territory.

Syria’s full cooperation with all investigations into political assassinations in Lebanon, especially Rafiq Hariri and Pierre Gemayel.

A verifiable cessation of Syrian aid to Hizballah and the use of Syrian territory for transshipment of Iranian weapons and aid to Hizballah. (This step would do much to solve Israel’s problem with Hizballah.)

Syria’s use of its influence with Hamas and Hizballah for the release of the captured IDF soldiers.

A verifiable cessation of Syrian efforts to undermine the democratically elected government of Lebanon.

A verifiable cessation of arms shipments from or transiting through Syria for Hamas and other radical Palestinian groups.

A Syrian commitment to help obtain from Hamas an acknowledgment of Israel’s right to exist.
Greater Syrian efforts to seal its border with Iraq.

Recommendation 16: In exchange for these actions and in the context of a full and secure peace agreement, the Israelis should return the Golan Heights, with a US security guarantee for Israel that could include an international force on the border, including US troops if requested by both parties.

Recommendation 17: Concerning the Palestinian issue, elements of that negotiated peace should include:

Adherence to UN Security Council Resolutions 242 and 338 and the principle of land for peace which are the only bases for achieving peace.

Strong support for Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas and the PA to take the lead in preparing the way for negotiations with Israel.

A major effort to move from current hostilities by consolidating the cease-fire reached between the Palestinians and Israelis in November 2006.

Support of a Palestinian national unity government.

Naturei Karta Excommunicated by Chief Rabbinate of Israel

Once again, I must thank Mad Zionist for this very important post. In my mind, there is no worse enemy, than a traitor of his/her own people, and this I believe is the case with the Naturei Karta. I am well aware of the teaching of "ahavas Yisroel", but .....

I believe there is a point which one crosses, where this no longer applies. A Jew is a Jew, is a Jew, is a Jew, gotta love ALL Jews ?? When a Jew betrays his/her own people, when they embrace the enemy, and even go so far as to betray the blessed memory of six million innocents, are we to love them, even then ??

I think not, and apparently neither does the Chief Rabbinate of Israel. Read this excellent post by Mad Zionist, and decide for yourself.

Naturei Karta Excommunicated by Chief Rabbinate of Israel

The worst damage that comes from the heretics known as Naturei Karta is how they are giving ALL religious Jews a black mark because of their Jewish appearance and dress. The fact that they are officially excommunicated now by the chief Rabbinate of Israel will help, somewhat, to demonstrate to the world they are not really Jews at all.

But, unfortunately, we know that doesn't mean that the MSM, and anti-Semites everywhere, will stop calling them "Ultra-Orthodox" Jews, so the beat goes on...

Arutz Sheva News: "While the entire world is shocked at the provocative threats to destroy the Jewish presence in the Land of Israel, Jews dressed as hareidim come to identify and show solidarity with the leader of Iran, may his name be erased. Aside from the terrible desecration of G-d's Name before the whole world, this is also aid and cooperation for the plans of enemies of Israel to carry out another Holocaust, may G-d save us, upon millions of Jews. These despicable people must be excommunicated, and every Jew is forbidden to have contact with them and certainly not to include them in prayers and the like.

"Rabbi Metzger said in his statement to Jewish leaders around the globe, “They [those who embraced Ahmadinajad] betrayed the Jewish people and their heritage and particularly disgraced and desecrated the memory of the Holocaust. With their shameful behavior, they tried to stain the Jewish people, who shy away from this low conduct.

”Of course, in 2002 they were officially excomunicated by the entire Ultra Orthodox rabbinic community of New York, but that didn't seem to catch on with the press. Here's what they said in a public statement back then:

In 2002, an American umbrella hareidi-religious group comprised of Satmar, Bobov, Belz, Vizhnitz, Munkacz, Kiryas Joel, Monroe, and other anti-Zionist communities, issued a statement sharply condemning those who openly sympathized with the PLO.

"It is with shame, sadness and outrage," the statement read, "that we publicly condemn the irresponsible and dangerous actions of a small group of individuals [known generally as Neturei Karta] who have taken upon themselves to endanger the interests of the Jewish Nation, and especially our brethren in Zion, by their reprehensible actions in joining the enemies... Their depiction in the local and international media in religious garb and prayer shawls marching arm-in-arm with Palestinian Jew-haters has besmirched the reputations of hundreds of thousands of decent Orthodox, hareidi and Hassidic Jews worldwide. Unfortunately this despicable minuscule group, who were ejected decades ago from our synagogues and communities for similar activities, do not accept or listen to the rulings of the leaders of our communities... They should under no circumstances, Heaven forbid, be associated with any recognized hareidi or Hassidic community..."

Olmert and his anti-Semitic croanies on the left should be next. According to the rabbis, anyone who purposely seeks to bring terrible destruction to the Jewish people has no place in the World to Come, and should be cut off in disgrace from his people in this world.

NEWS FOR MEMBERS OF THE TRIBE: IRAN TO SET UP HOLOCAUST "STUDIES" FOUNDATION IN BERLIN

Iran to Setup Holocaust "Studies" Foundation in BERLIN (MEMRI)

On December 14, 2006 the Iranian news agency IRNA reported, in English, that participants of the Iranian Holocaust Denial conference, dubbed 'Holocaust: A Global Vision' had announced the establishment of a "world foundation for Holocaust studies" and unanimously appointed Presidential Advisor Mohammad–Ali Ramin as its Secretary General.

Ramin told IRNA that one of the plans of the foundation is to assign a committee to find out the truth about the Holocaust, noting that its main office will be in Tehran, and that it "will eventually be transferred to Berlin, once proper grounds are prepared.

"Ali Ramin was the topic of a June 15, 2006 Special Dispatch by MEMRI based on a June 9, 2006 article in the reformist online daily Rooz. According to Rooz, Ramin was quoted as saying, "...the resolution of the Holocaust issue will end in the destruction of Israel."

Merchant Nabbed in Sex Sting

We have looked at a few, of the many, threats to Israel's survival in the previous posts, and we haven't even discussed the most obvious threat yet, the Arabs, who "call" themselves, Palestinians", and their radical Islamic backers. For over three decades now, America has attempted to "twist Israel's arm" to force them to make more and more concessions, in an attempt to try to appease these murderous thugs, and now, as we say in the South, "our chickens are coming home to roost" !! Since 9/11, America has found ourselves threatened by these same terrorists that we have been insisting Israel bargain with for years. I believe this is G-D'S way of showing America, just a small taste, of what we have been demanding of Israel, when we force them to deal with these radicals. The following article is from our LOCAL newspaper. America had best reconsider our Mid East policies, and remember who our allies are, and who are the self-declared enemies, of BOTH Israel and America. Just a few short years ago, you would NEVER have expected to read of something like this in our small region of the South, but here it is, on our doorstep. In Islam sex with under age girls (children) is an accepted practice, but here it is NOT !! Also, these Islamists come here and operate private businesses, usually convenience stores, while sending money back to terrorist groups back home, using these supposed legitamate businesses, to funnel money back to the very terrorist groups who are threatening both Israel and America's survival. When you start seeing it in our neck-of-the-woods, it's already late in the game, because everything that happens, happens here LAST, and if it's HERE, it's already EVERYWHERE !! Please America, WAKE-UP !!

A Jackson businessman was in jail Monday night awaiting extradition to North Carolina on charges of soliciting a child by computer with the intent of engaging in an unlawful sex act.

Ismaeel Alhajj, 26, of 503 Crook Ave. in Henderson, was arrested Monday morning at the Greyhound Bus terminal on East Main Street in downtown Jackson. Alhajj runs Al Far's International Market at 40 Carriage House Drive, according to a press release from police.

Police said Alhajj was waiting at the station for a person he believed was a 14-year-old girl from Cleveland County, N.C., with whom he had been corresponding via the internet. "He thought he was talking to a 14-year-old girl," said Jackson Police Chief Rick Staples.

"I'm sure he was disappointed," Staples said of Alhajj's arrest. "He did show up thinking he was going to meet a 14-year-old."

Alhajj had actually been corresponding with authorities at the Cleveland County Sheriff's Department, who asked the JPD to assist with the arrest.

Jackson police did not know on Monday how long Alhajj had been corresponding with the person he thought was an underage girl.

When Alhajj saw JPD investigators at the Greyhound Bus station, "he was surprised," said police Capt. Jerry N. Priddy. Priddy said Alhajj offered no resistance to police.

Priddy said Alhajj sent a bus ticket for the 14-year-old girl to come to Jackson. He was being held in the Criminal Justice Center on Monday night.

The Dead Sea Turned Over to the United Nations ??

I have posted these two posts by Tamar Yonah, back-to-back, because they are "sister" posts, as it were. We have looked at threats to Israel's survival "from WITHIN", threats to her survival "from WITHOUT", and this last post shows a threat to her survival "from WITHOUT" with a "from WITHIN" connection.

The Dead Sea Turned Over to the United Nations ??

See this interesting post, and notice the highlighted text where it speaks about the United Nation's UNESCO as well as 'free trade zones'. The very light text you can skim over, for the WHOLE article (which I omitted much of the text), see article.

-- Peres and the U.N. both give me the creeps. - tamar

"Peace Valley": Even on the environment Shimon Peres's ideas are a disaster.

"I cannot think of a worse idea," said Dan Zaslavsky, a former Israeli water commissioner and professor specializing in water and soil engineering at the University of Haifa. "This is unbelievable. Unbelievable, so idiotic it is . . . .
.... There are several alternatives which are so obviously better." ....

...... "The problem is there's no comprehensive management plan in place. Everyone is just taking as much [water] as they can without enough thought to the consequences," said Mira Edelstein, of Friends of the Earth Middle East, an environmental organization with members in Israel, Jordan and the Palestinian Territories that is lobbying to restore the flow of the Jordan River in an effort to revive the Dead Sea coastline, and wants the Dead Sea declared a UNESCO (united nations) World Heritage site. "Many historic and cultural and heritage sites are in the Jordan Valley and around the Dead Sea [and] we are going to see their downfall instead of conserving them."

"There is a plan to save the Dead Sea, but like everything else in the Mideast, it is a tricky negotiation among three governments, subject to much bureaucracy and long delays. Israeli vice-premier Shimon Peres is championing a "Peace Valley" project that includes a 200-kilometre canal to bring water from the Red Sea to the Dead Sea to replenish it. Along the way, the project would include desalination plants to increase the supply of fresh water in this desert region, as well as tourist facilities, a free-trade zone and even a new joint airport at the southern tip where Israel and Jordan meet." for the whole article,

IS IT ALL GOING TO THE U.N. ?

We have shown a few of the many ways Israel's survival is being threatened "from WITHIN", in the previous posts, by Mad Zionist, now I would like to point out a very real threat to Israel "from WITHOUT", originally posted at

http://TamarYonahShow.blogspot.com/

by: Tamar Yonah.

Is It All Going To The U.N. ?

I've been getting lots of letters about the Sunday Weekend Edition Show I did Nov. 26 th. We spoke about the slow encroaching power of the United Nations and how it is obtaining a type of ownership of historical or natural importance to different nations states. They take this type of ownership via UNESCO and the World Heritage organization/committee. Some of the sites that are now under UNESCO and World Heritage (United Nations) are:

Yellowstone National Park (1978)

Grand Canyon National Park (1979)

Independence Hall (1979)

Statue of Liberty (1984)

I thought the Statue of Liberty was a gift from France to America, not the U.N. Does this bother you that the UN should take sovereignty over these places? There are over 800 properties around the globe that are now under World Heritage (United Nations). It bothers me.

A listener of mine named Marcia sent me this information below.

Read it and know.

"Today I was listening to Tamar Yonah and on her show there was a brief mention of the fact that Yellowstone Ntl Park & others were overseen by the UN. I vaguely remembered that discussion years back so decided to update myself on it. What I found was shocking. I am forwarding to you a brief summary of a few general topics from the official website, but just know that we are talking about massive massive amounts of land and "historical" sites coming under the jurisdiction of the UN.

Of particular concern of course is the land in Israel that is listed. When you bring up the website, click on The Lists & all the countries and the property will appear. It is extensive to say the least. In Israel are cities and places like Masada, HarMegiddo, Beersheva, etc. but most importantly (significantly listed separate from Israel) is Jerusalem's Old City. You will note that it lists this site as an endangered site, giving the UN more international access.

All of these countries have given permission for the site to be internationalized. That means the United States ok'ed it for all its national parks, (do you remember voting for it??) & Israel gave permission (although it LOOKS like the Old City is still ' pending')

Also of interest is that fact that the whole of Vatican City is under UN control. (or vice versa) Reading through the material it is made to look like the countries where the sites actually lie still "own" the property, but if you read further, the oversite of the international communities can "decide" how to manage that site whenever they sense it is "in danger".

Quotes from the Official Website:

World Heritage sites belong to all the peoples of the world, irrespective of the territory on which they are located.

The World Heritage List:

Who owns a site once it's inscribed on the World Heritage List? The site is the property of the country on whose territory it is located, but it is considered in the interest of the international community to protect the site for future generations. Its protection and preservation becomes a concern of the international World Heritage community as a whole.

What is the Convention?

The Convention Concerning the Protection of the World Cultural and Natural Heritage is an international agreement that was adopted by the General Conference of UNESCO in 1972. It is based on the premise that certain places on Earth are of outstanding universal value and should therefore form part of the common heritage of mankind. The countries who ratify the Convention (States Parties) have become part of an international community, united in a common mission to identify and safeguard our world's most outstanding natural and cultural heritage. While fully respecting the national sovereignty, and without prejudice to property rights provided by national legislation, the States Parties recognize that the protection of the World Heritage is the duty of the international community as a whole. What are the legal implications of the Convention? The UNESCO World Heritage Convention is a treaty that has become, over the past 30 years, the foremost international legal tool in support of the conservation of the world's cultural and natural heritage. Today, 178 countries (called States Parties) have ratified the Convention, making it an almost universally accepted set of principles and framework of action.

Radical Court Rules "Palestinians" Can Sue Israel

This is the kind of insane ruling that will destroy Israel if it is allowed to continue.

Original post by: Mad Zionist

Tuesday, December 12, 2006

Radical court rules "Palestinians" can sue Israel

The Hellenized State of Self-loathing Jews continued its suicidal march to destruction this morning when the Israeli Supreme Court, comprised largely of anti-Zionist leftwing intellectuals, voted to overturn an Israeli law that forbade "Palestinians" from suing Israel for any damages they may have suffered during military operations.

Jerusalem Post - Following a ruling by the High Court of Justice on Tuesday that nullified an amendment to the Civil Wrongs (Liability of the State) Law that was passed by the Knesset on July 27, 2005, granting the state broad immunity from lawsuits filed by civilians for damages suffered in the intifada, nearly 600 petitioners have announced following the ruling that they intended to sue the State. In addition, 550 suits currently frozen will be reopened. The suits could potentially cost the State hundreds of millions of shekels, Israel Radio reported.

A High Court of Justice panel headed by retired Supreme Court president Aharon Barak ruled on Tuesday that Palestinian residents of the West Bank and Gaza could file lawsuits against Israel for damages incurred in IDF operations, provided that the operations in question did not take place as part of a clearly defined "war."

This is the equivalent, of course, to Israel giving the Germans the right to sue the Jews for any damages the crematoriums may have caused to the environment from all the Jew corpses that had to be incinerated during the Holocaust.

Ironicallly, this ruling takes place while Olmert is socializing in Germany with the German chancellor, who currently has forces stationed in southern Lebanon poised to shoot down any Israeli planes that fly within their air space.

"All the News That's Fit to Make Me Puke" original post by Mad Zionist

I would like to begin by apologizing that I have not posted on my blog for the past month.

I felt it necessary to step-back and to re-evaluate just where I wanted my blog to go from here, and so I have done. I began my blog with the intention of exploring current events in the light of the Holy Scriptures, with Israel as my central focus.

I have spent the past month reflecting on this and researching related issues and I have arrived at a conclusion, we ARE in the End of Days, and time is of the essence. Therefore, I feel we must accelerate our efforts to inform the un-informed, to encourage the informed, and to make the most of whatever time we have allotted.

Blogs offer us a window of opportunity, and it is our obligation to do all we can before our enemies find a way to slam the window shut. Having said this, I would also like to add that I intend to come out swinging. There is not enough time to be polite, we must speak the truth, whether it is well received or not.

I thought I would begin, with a borrowed post from another blogger, Mad Zionist, which I felt would point us in the direction which I will be heading with my own blog. This post by MZ, is direct, hard hitting, and should be a serious warning to us all of the issues which both now, and in the near future, will directly determine Israel's continued existence. I will be addressing similar issues crucial to Israel's survival, in my upcoming posts.

All the News That's Fit to Make Me Puke

There were so many nauseating stories in the news today, I felt compelled to list them, in no particular order, for your personal vomiting pleasure.

Blown Chunk #1:

MK Bishara to MK Erdan: Go fuck yourself!

Ynet News reports that in today's special Knesset Meeting, the bill from NU/NRP's Zev Orlev that would make it illegal for MK's who openly support terrorist organizations, or governments that are actively trying to destroy Israel, to hold seats in the knesset, was put before the committee of Law and Justice.

Ynet reported that MK Gilad Erdan (Likud) told Chairman of the National Democratic Assembly (a moslem, Jew-hating party) MK Azmi Bishara that he could "go hold a position in Syria".

In response, Bishara told him "You can go fuck yourself!"

Bishara was then kicked out of the meeting.

What is most incredible, however, is that after the filthy vermin dirtbag was removed, Olmert's cowardly liberals on the committee REJECTED the bill!!

Blown Chunk #2:

National outrage as Education Minister removes Judea, Samaria and Gaza from school maps

Arutz Sheva News reports Education Minister Yuli Tamir's order to return the Green Line to maps of Israel in new textbooks was met with a firestorm of protest including a rabbinical decree against using the new textbooks.

Tamir was Ehud Olmert's hand picked choice as Education Minister, perhaps because of her ties to Peace Now, the anti-Israel Marxist group Olmert's wife originally helped found and still supports to this day.

Outraged over the dhimmi concession to omit Judea, Samaria and Gaza from Israeli school maps, a panel of rabbis handed down a Jewish legal decree (psak Halacha) forbidding students from using the new textbooks, according to Israel Radio.

Olmert's reaction after facing severe national criticism over this cowardly capitulation to the islamic vermin? "There is nothing wrong with marking the Green Line."

Should we pretend to be surprised?? Watching the State of Marxist Jews gradually throw themselves into the sea may be disturbing, but it's not at all surprising. Leftism always ends in suicide.

Blown Chunk #3:

Iran to rule: Was there a Holocaust?

This repulsive nugget from Ynet News:

Iran will host an international conference next week on the Holocaust, with the central question being whether or not it actually took place. At the conclusion of the conference, the Iranians will decide on the answer.

Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister Manouchehr Mohammadi convened a press conference Tuesday to elaborate on the event.

If Iran is indeed convinced that the Holocaust took place, the next question will be how many Jews were murdered and why the Palestinians need to suffer because of an event that took place in Europe 60 years ago.

Mohammadi stated that the idea for such a conference on the Holocaust was the brain child of Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad.

There are those in Iran who deny the Holocaust. In February, Ahmadinejad himself referred to it as a 'myth', provoking a wave of outrage in Israel and the world at large.

Mohammadi, deputy foreign minister for education and research, announced that the conference, which will begin Monday, will last two days and will be attended by 67 participants from 30 nations such as Britain, France, Australia, and Canada.

Also represented will be Russia, Austria, Turkey, Bahrain, Tajikistan, Syria and Algeria. The minister refrained from revealing the identity of the experts, out of concern "that their governments will take their passports and prevent them from coming to the conference."


Oh, goody! Iran will finally tell us all if the Nazis really, really exterminated the Jews in WWII, or if it was all just lies propagated by those dirty Zionists! Good thing Ahmedinijad is on the case.
