The Hope of the Jewish People and the Wizard of Oz

A query upon opening Facebook is; " What is on your mind?

Upon seeing the swill that passes for "news" on today's "woke" mass media outlets were journalist integrity is now no longer exists. I yearn for the day that the people of the world will awaken to the fact that they are being manipulated by unscrupulous owners of the "Social Media" and mendacious liars who pervert the truth that is shown and printed. 

Above all else as a father and as a grandfather I hope and pray for sanity as I hope for an end to hatred,especially towards my people and my nation. It is this same  "Hope" of freedom from hate filled persecution that we Jews have yearned for, for centuries.

Somewhere Over the Rainbow”, the 1939 classic and Academy Award winning song from “Wizard of Oz” was composed by Harold Arlen (born Hyman Arluck; February 15, 1905 – April 23, 1986) a Jew whose family immigrated from Lithuania. The lyrics were written by Edgar Yipsel "Yip" Harburg (born Isidore Hochberg; April 8, 1896 – March 5, 1981)  the son of Russian-Jewish immigrants who grew up in a Yiddish-speaking, Orthodox Jewish home in New York.

Together they put together a song that has won awards and garnered global fame. Among other things they won an Oscar in 1940 for “Best Music, Original Song” for “The Wizard of Oz” and the song was voted the number one song of the 20th century by the Recording Industry Association of America and the National Endowment for the Arts.

The song is about hope, that the bad times will one day be over. It is this feeling of hope within the song that we can all relate to and it is hope that helped the Jewish people through the ages. 

Yip and Harold did not know what the future held for the Jewish people when they wrote this song, but the question is; How much of their experience as Jews affected the lyrics. 

We as Jews can readily relate to the song. Our people experienced troubles throughout our history and they were tired of being in a sad place and yearned to be somewhere better. So when you apply this tremendous desire for hope that this song manifests in the Jewish people, the words of the song take on a whole new meaning.

[Verse 1]

Somewhere over the rainbow, way up high

There’s a land that I’ve heard of once in a lullaby.

Somewhere over the rainbow, skies are blue

And the dreams that you dare to dream,

Really do come true.

[Chorus]

Someday I’ll wish upon a star

And wake up where the clouds are far behind me.

Where troubles melt like lemon drops,

High above the chimney tops,

That’s where you’ll find me.

[Verse 2]

Somewhere over the rainbow, blue birds fly

Birds fly over the rainbow

Why then, oh why can’t I?

[Outro]

If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow

Why, oh why can’t I?

The song was first published in 1939, at a time when the Jews in Europe were coming under increased hostility. Their freedoms were being taken away, their identity being dragged through the dirt, and many of them were feeling isolated. They were trapped, unable to “fly”.

The song is about hope, that the bad times will one day be over. It is this feeling of hope within the song that we can all relate to and it is hope that helped the Jewish people through the Holocaust.

Yip did not know what the future held for the Jewish people when he wrote this song. The lyrics “chimney tops” take on a harrowing new meaning now that we know the horrors of the Holocaust. I am sure many Jews looked to the skies above Auschwitz’s chimney’s, longing for the day they were free.

It was less than ten years after the song was written that the most powerful words of the song were fulfilled.

“There’s a land that I’ve heard of once in a lullaby.”

We Jews have dreamed of returning to our ancestral homeland Eretz Yisrael - "Zion" ever since our expulsion in 135CE. We have dreamed of having a country of OUR own where we can live in freedom and to worship our maker as one people without the control of others. This dream was fulfilled in 1948 when the nation of Israel was reborn. If anything Israel is a testament to the Jewish people that the “dreams that you dare to dream really do come true.”

It seems that our world is once again on the edge of dark times. This song reminds us that though we face uncertain events, we still have hope, and our hope is in "Him who blessed the people of Israel".

The Official Palestinian Troll guideline to public relations (dezinformatsiya)

After seeing SO MUCH endless rectal brained BS by the "Detractors of Israel" all over the Internet I thought it worthwhile to lighten my day…..

FLASH: Mossad Center

An agent of ours found this in the basement under the remains of the UNWRA school in Gaza among the piles of rubble from the secondary explosion of rockets and weapons stockpiled in the tunnel underneath where the supposed English Lab was. Was a guideline sheet entitled: 

"The Official Palestinian Keyboard propagandists ™  guideline for "click bait" replies and dezinformatsiya for the minion of sycophantic followers of  the Tragedy Tourists of the self-inflicted Castration and Fantasia of Nachbaland™!"

Our Slogan: 

"The more mendacious the lie the better!" 

(kudos to our friends at the NYT)

1)      EVERYTHING is the fault of the ZIONISTS.

2)      Jews are Not REAL Jews they are Europeans! Khazarim!

3)      The ZIONISTS are colonizers! (Ignore the fact that our Prophet and our own Quran says the land belongs to the Jews.)

4)      Ignore the fact that Arabs ONLY conquered the land in 635CE

5)      Al Aqsa has always been on Haram al-Sharif [Noble Sanctuary] though Islam was begun only around the time of Muhammad 570 CE – 8 June 632 CE

6)      When we say Zionists, we mean ALL Jews! (Shhh but don't tell our JINO buds)

7)      When we say a "Two State Solution" it means we hope that the duped fools won't notice our little innocent litany "From the river to the Sea."

8)      We have cried and groveled over the loss of Falestine since King Daoud.

9)      We develop amnesia when it comes specific details of the "Country /State" of Falestine -which we claim begins with a P in English.

10)  We wave a flag that we claim is ours but we stole from that Kingdom created from 72% of the European Colony. 

Now as to the Hamas controlled Gaza Strip 

11)  We shoot our explosive laden rockets ONLY from those homes and buildings that we built to hide our launchers or weapons

12)  We make sure to use only the best cannon fodder as human shields, preferably the elderly and children of those families who are in fear of retribution.

13)  Since we control the Ministry of Health, we can control the details of the dead and HOW they were killed.

14)  It is forbidden to report deaths due to our Hamas activities. Those murdered by errant misfires are only murdered by Palestinian Islamic Jihad rockets.

15)  We -Hamas - threaten ALL who report on our activities and especially any International News Agency.

16)  We widely advertise the use of the term's "occupation" and "genocide" in our propaganda knowing full well that it is untrue! But it does trigger our minions of brainwashed followers into rages of anti-Israel hatred. ;-)!

17)  We appreciate the millions in "Aid" money you shell out for the desperate civilian population -read non-Hamas's cronies to repair out tunnels and our villas! Keep them Euros and dollars coming!

18)  Children under 18 are ALL children!! Well not really...since we urge them to stand and play next to our launchers and weapon storage facilities to be "martyrs for the cause".

19)  A true "Win, Win situation! The parents get paid #Paid4slay and we can ALWAYS count on the world press to paste the photos on the front page and the News channels to broadcast the gruesome images to blame those Zionists!

20)  We entice and recruit 16- to 18-year-old boys to be our "martyrs" by luring them with tales of sex with 72 virgins! But when they die as "cannon fodder" we label them as "children" (see the NYT photo of dead children)

21)  We especially love those Jews In Name Only - those washed up "you know Who's" of Hollywood - who love bashing the "Zionist State." Those who are desperate in their desire to feel remembered whose bitterness to their Judaism stemmed from their hatred of getting dressed to go to "Temple" as children.

 Remember all these salient facts when the gullible pro Hamas fools speak about the Zionists!

Want "Peace between the "palestinians and Israel"?

Here ARE THE steps to take!

1) - STOP the palestinian dezinformatsiya!!! The world needs to take a step back and realise that it is up to the PEOPLE of "palestine" WITHOUT their overly corrupt and fanatic Islamic leadership and the people -the JEWS of Israel, to resolve the problem. 

2) The UN MUST revoke UNWRA established in 1949 by the UN General Assembly (UNGA) UN Resolution 212 (III) by a "mandate" its renewal must be voided IMMEDIATELY!

3) The UN MUST revoke the clause; "The descendants of Palestine refugee males, including adopted children, are also eligible for registration as refugees."

4) The UN MUST declare that ALL Arab countries -specifically those Arab countries members of the "Arab League" must accept ALL those who -were born- and reside in "Refugee Camps" as citizens with full rights and equal rights . ALL "UNWRA" facilities will be closed. 

5) The "Arabs of the Mandated Area" aka the "palestinians" MUST be cut off from ALL funding THAT IS NOT handled by supervised AND recorded accounting to prevent money going into corrupt pockets and weaponry. 

6) UWRA schools MUST be CLOSED and ONLY "revamped" schools MUST be opened. International Monitors must verify that HATRED is removed from their curriculum and -most importantly-  ALL texts that do NOT teach to educate MUST be destroyed. 

7) ALL those who HAVE donated money MUST be held held accountable that the funds are ACTUALLY USED for the construction of proper housing and infrastructure and NOT stolen for nefarious purposes!

8) They -the PEOPLE of "palestine" those used as pawns and cannon fodder - need to told the actual TRUTH just WHY the leaders of the Arab world have refused to absorb them for 74+ years!

That the Arabs of "Palestine" need to confront the truth of THEIR "Nachba"

            ****AND WHAT "IS" THAT TRUTH?****

The TRUTH that THEIR leaders refused to accept the Partition -UNR181 in 1948 and set out to murder those Jews who LIVED in Eretz Yisrael -and in doing so THEY LOST and "THEY"- the PEOPLE of "palestine" have been systematically used by THEIR leaders as pawns and cannon fodder - have paid the price of misery and death ever since!

THEY - The "Arabs of the Mandated Area" aka the "palestinians" need to realise THEY cannot "Turn back the clock" nor can they DEMAND back what THEY LOST

When you set out to murder and defeat someone do not be surprised should you lose.

Just as the some 850,000 Jews of "Arab Lands" who paid the price for the utter defeat of the "Great Arab Armies" in their vain attempt to "Throw the Jews into the sea" in their war against the nascent "Jewish State" because of this Jews who had lived for centuries were "ETHNICALLY CLEANSED" and cannot retrieve their belongings and properties. They too, as well, cannot expect a return to THEIR homes, shops and fields. 

SO too the so called "palestinians" need to "Wake up" and realise WHAT THEY brought down upon THEMSELVES by their blind obedience to hatred in their "Nachba" - that  THEY LOST.

Once the "Arabs of the Mandated Area", aka the "palestinians", learn that war and hatred are not going to remove "US" or NEGATE "US".

That there is NO fantasy of "Return"!

That there is WHAT there is!

There are- no more "give mes"!! 

There is ONLY take it; "As you left it for yourselves" or keep suffering and dying!

WE JEWS are here to stay and we will NOT be your Dhimmis NO more. 

Then and only then will there be Peace !


The Truth And NOTHING but THE Truth

In 1993, on the White House lawn at the signing and "photo op" of, yet again, another failed “Peace Agreement”- the now dead "Oslo Accords". Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was revolted by the "Western / American" gesture of "shaking the hand" of Yasser Arafat. The same Arafat who he knew as a totally corrupt tyrant and who had caused the death, not only of many Israelis but fellow Arabs. 

Rabin knew that as a true leader of men, father and grandfather, that for the chance of a real peace he had to overcome his revulsion to show the world WE WANT PEACE: 

"Of all hands in the world, it was not the hand that I wanted nor dreamed of touching, ..."

Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin expressed the view of ALL Israelis with these words in his speech:

“We, the soldiers who have returned from battle stained with blood, - we who have seen our relatives and friends killed before our eyes, - we who have attended their funerals and cannot look into the eyes of their parents, -we who have come from a land where parents bury their children, - we who have fought against you, the Palestinians - - we say to you today in a loud and clear voice: - enough of blood and tears. - Enough! ... - The time for peace has come.";

Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin continued:

"We will not rest until we reach a permanent agreement [with the Palestinians] that would secure a safe future for our children and that would provide us with renewed hope to live in a region where people lead a life of cooperation and not, God forbid, where blood is shed."

So what is the problem? WHY is there NO peace? 

Simple it is because the "palestinians" and their handlers in the Soviet KGB  have brainwashed the world with their tale of tragedy and woe!

Yuri Andropov, the former KGB chairman of the KGB once stated:

"[T]he Islamic world was a waiting petri dish in which we could nurture a virulent strain of America-hatred, grown from the bacterium of Marxist-Leninist thought. Islamic anti-Semitism ran deep... We had only to keep repeating our themes -- that the United States and Israel were 'fascist, imperial-Zionist countries' bankrolled by rich Jews." 

As early as 1965, with the increased influence that the dependence on the purchase of weapons from the USSR by Egypt and Syria had brought them. The Soviet Union had formally proposed in the UN a resolution that would draw in more Arab countries by condemning colonialism as racism. 

The major turning point, that forever changed the conflict in the Middle East and opened the door to the KGB and Soviet Union / Russian control over the Arabs, was Israel's unwillingness to side with the Soviet Union during the Cold War. 

So when Egypt, under Gamal Abdel Nasser, approached the Soviets for military assistance in 1955, the Soviet Union readily embraced the request and approved the Egyptian-Czechoslovak Arms Agreement. This "Arms Agreement" led to the supply of more than $83 million worth of modern Soviet weaponry to Egypt, through Czechoslovakia. This Arms Agreement greatly impacted the Arab–Israeli conflict forever. 

With the resounding and devastating defeat of Soviet armaments of Egyptian armed and equipped forces in the Suez Canal Crisis of 1956 and Soviet armament in the hands of their Arab proxies in the 1967 "Six Day War". The KGB felt it was time to "get even" and to "turn the tide" of world opinion by identifying Israel and Zionism as a "Colonial" "Imperialistic" Jewish foothold in the heart of the Arab heartland. 

They have used the influx of post World War II Jewish displaced Holocaust survivor refugees from Europe as the inspiration for the Zionism is a "Colonial" "Imperialistic" movement theme in their deep hatred of Israel. These propagandist readily point to this influx of 650,000 refugees as NON Semites and as a European usurpers and intruders. They freely use the "Khazar" libel to label todays Israelis  as NON Semitic converts to Judaism, whilst THEY the "Arabs of the Mandated Areas" are the "true indigenous inhabitants"!

Nary a mention is ever made of the Jews, who despite ALL the persecutions, remained in "Eretz Yisrael" or those who arrived before the creation of the "Mandate" in 1919.  Or the fact that most if the "Ethnically Cleansed" Jews from Arab countries were absorbed by the newly created Jewish State of Israel.   

The “Arabs of the Mandated Areas", have worked tirelessly to change their "narrative" and they readily assumed the name "Palestinians” as THE central theme of their "Negation of Israel" plan. They cynically used the name given to the British Mandated area so as to have "proof" that an "entity / State / Country existed

They have accomplished all of this through the KGB inspired method of "Dezinformatsiya"- "the super-secret KGB discipline which was is used to disseminate false information, reports and documents fabricated around a kernel of truth. This KGB method was taught to Yasser Arafat at Balashikha according to Lt. Gen. (ret.) Ion Mihai Pacepa a former three-star general in the Securitate, the secret police of Communist Romania, who defected to the United States in July 1978 from his book, “Red Horizons,” published in 1987.

In an interview by the Wall Street Journal, Pacepa explained just how the KGB had replaced the truth of Arafat's origins with a fictional "Palestinian" background narrative for him:

"He was an Egyptian bourgeois turned into a devoted Marxist by KGB foreign intelligence. The KGB had trained him at its Balashikha special-operations school east of Moscow and in the mid-1960s decided to groom him as the future PLO leader. First, the KGB destroyed the official records of Arafat's birth in Cairo, and replaced them with fictitious documents saying that he had been born in Jerusalem and was therefore a Palestinian by birth."

Vasili Nikitich Mitrokhin, a major and senior archivist for the Soviet Union's foreign intelligence service, the First Chief Directorate of the KGB, copied documents certifying that the head of Soviet foreign intelligence, Gen. Alexander Sakharovsky, wanted to "repair the prestige" of "our Arab friends" at the hands of the Israelis. He did so by helping them organize terrorist operations that would humiliate Israel through the use of the main KGB asset -- Yasser Arafat, who was the co-founder of Fatah, the Palestinian military force. 

In his talks with Ion Mihai Pacepa Gen. Alexander Sakharovsky described Yasser Arafat as a; "devoted Marxist-Leninist since his days in the membership of the General Union of Palestinian Students (GUPS) from 1952 to 1956." 

In 1957, when Kuwait was still a British protectorate, the KGB mole Yasser Arafat had applied for a visa based on his work in civil engineering and was approved.

As Arafat began to develop friendships with Palestinian refugees, some of whom like Abu Iyad he had met while attending Cairo University and Abu Jihad in Gaza, both of whom were official members of the Egyptian Muslim Brotherhood. Khalil al-Wazir ("Abu Jihad"), had arrived in 1959 Kuwait worked as a teacher and Salah Khalaf ("Abu Iyad") arrived in Kuwait in late 1960 became Arafat's top aides in  Al Fatah.

Inspired by his success his handlers in the KGB urged Arafat to "gradually encourage" Khalil al-Wazir ("Abu Jihad") and Salah Khalaf ("Abu Iyad") and others to found the group that became known as Fatah. The exact date for the establishment of Fatah is unknown. 

The group's existence was attested to in the pages of a Palestinian nationalist magazine, Filastununa Nida al-Hayat (Our Palestine, The Call of Life) in 1959, which was written and edited by Khalil al-Wazir ("Abu Jihad"). 

The full name of Fatah in Arabic is- Harakat al-Tahrir al-Watani al-Filastini which translates as "The Palestinian National Liberation Movement" or the reverse acronym of the Arabic name FaTaH which in early Islamic times to referred to "conquest."  

The turning point for Arafat and the PLO was the battle of Karameh in Jordan. The events of the battle were covered in detail and Arafat's face appeared in the world press. The coverage brought Arafat fame and fortune as he came to be regarded as a national hero who dared to confront Israel. 

Yasser Arafat (Arabic: أبو عمار‎ , 'Abū `Ammār) was elected chairman by the Palestinian National Council convened in Cairo on 3 February 1969.

The KGB "Dezinformatsiya" Negation of Israel Story: "Israel is A Colonial Outpost" 

The Soviet Union, the KGB, felt it was time to identify Israel and Zionism with the old communist line as the "Colonial - Imperialists" foothold in the heart of the Arab heartland. The Soviets decided to introduce the "Zionism is Racism" resolution to the UN. All the new pro-Moslem countries who had recently gained independence from colonial status were eager to abide their "Masters" will and turned out overwhelmingly in favor of the November 1975, Resolution 3379 condemning Zionism as "a form of racism and racial discrimination". 

They began their "Dezinformatsiya" story with the 1948 Nachba story line of "excuse for humiliation" blame game regarding the vote that allowed the cowardly British to put their tail between their legs and run off. 

The British, along with their French cohorts in Syria and Lebanon, had become bankrupted from the costs of World War II and could no longer maintain their fictitious colonial presence as "Mandatories". The rise of Arab nationalism and their ability to “control the peasants” had become too high a cost for the financially strapped and war weary colonial powers. Britain and France began to flee their former colonies in the Middle East and the outcome of which was the UN resolution 181 to Partition the Mandated Area.

Arafat describes the outcome of the United Nations November 1947 vote in his November 1975 "Zionism is Racism" speech as;

“As a result of the collusion between the Mandatory Power and the Zionist movement and with the support of some countries, this General Assembly early in its history approved a recommendation to partition our Palestinian homeland. This took place in an atmosphere poisoned with questionable actions and strong pressure." 

The General Assembly partitioned what it had no right to divide — an indivisible homeland. 

When we rejected that decision, our position corresponded to that of the natural mother who refused to permit King Solomon to cut her son in two when the unnatural mother claimed the child for herself and agreed to his dismemberment." 

Furthermore, even though the partition resolution granted the colonialist settlers 54 per cent of the land of Palestine, their dissatisfaction with the decision prompted them to wage a war of terror (!!!?) against the civilian Arab population. 

They occupied 81 per cent of the total area of Palestine, uprooting a million Arabs. Thus, they occupied 524 Arab towns and villages, of which they destroyed 385, completely obliterating them in the process. Having done so, they built their own settlements and colonies on the ruins of our farms and our groves. The roots of the Palestine question lie here. Its causes do not stem from any conflict between two religions or two nationalisms. Neither is it a border conflict between neighboring States. It is the cause of people deprived of its homeland, dispersed and uprooted, and living mostly in exile and in refugee camps."

Here Arafat, as part of the new dezinformatsiya campaign, purposely neglects to tell the whole historical truth. 

He does not even relate to the fact that Churchill had cut off 72% of the British Mandated Area to buy off [Prince] Abdullah and the chief tribal groups such as the Bani Sakhr, Abadi, Shobaki and Manaseer for a "Hashemite solution in 1921”. An act that this was done in contradiction to Article 5 of the League Of Nations Mandate that states:

“The Mandatory shall be responsible for seeing that no Palestine territory shall be ceded or leased to, or in any way placed under the control of the Government of any foreign Power.”

Arafat also purposely omitted to mention that 80% of the Arab population is therefore “Palestinian” and that Transjordan was closed to all Jewish migration and settlement, a clear betrayal of the British promise in the Balfour Declaration of 1917 and a patent contravention of its Mandatory obligations. 

The number of Arab refugees, who fled Israel in 1948, is flaunted by these "apologists" and was estimated (by impartial sources) to be less than 630,000. 

Yet, nary a word was spoken of the number of Jewish refugees ethnically cleansed their wealth - businesses, shops, factories, homes and land confiscated from Arab lands -which has been estimated to be more than 850,000!

In 1970 on the urgings of his KGB controllers, Arafat visited Hanoi were he was particularly struck by Ho Chi Minh’s success in mobilizing left-wing sympathizers in Europe and the United States. American student activists on college and university campuses throughout America, enthusiastically followed the line of North Vietnamese operatives. They had succeeded in re-framing the Vietnam war from a Communist assault on the south to a struggle for national liberation.

Ho’s chief strategist, Võ Nguyên Giáp, a General in the Vietnam People's Army and a politician, made it clear to Arafat and his lieutenants that in order to succeed, they too needed to redefine the terms of their struggle. 

Giap’s counsel was simple but profound: the PLO needed to work in a way that concealed its real goals, permitted strategic deception, and gave the appearance of moderation. 

Arafat was struck more by Ho Chi Minh’s success with left-wing sympathizers in the United States and Europe. 

“Progressive” activists on American campuses, enthusiastically followed the propaganda told by North Vietnamese operatives. These propagandists had succeeded in re-framing the Vietnam War from a Communist conquest of the South into a struggle for national liberation." 

An insight into this North Vietnamese PR campaign, which provided the key to the Communist victory and a lesson for PLO operatives, was offered by Ho’s chief strategist, General Giap:

“Stop talking about annihilating Israel and instead turn your terror war into a struggle for human rights. Then you will have the American people eating out of your hand.”

And here in this passage below we see the main objective of the “Falestinians” that they have worked on since Arafat had met with Muhammad Yazid, who had been minister of information in two Algerian wartime ‎governments (1958-1962). Yazid advised Arafat in 1970:‎

‎“Wipe out the argument that Israel is a small state whose existence is threatened by the Arab ‎states, or the reduction of the Palestinian problem to a question of refugees; instead, present ‎the Palestinian struggle as a struggle for liberation like the others. Wipe out the impression ‎‎…that in the struggle between the Palestinians and the Zionists, the Zionist is the underdog. ‎Now it is the Arab who is oppressed and victimized in his existence because he is not only ‎facing the Zionists but also world imperialism.”

In conclusion, I will cite the words of Dr. Carl Sagan who once aptly said: 

"One of the saddest lessons of history is this: IF we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. 

We're no longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It's simply too painful to acknowledge even to ourselves, that we have been taken. 

Once you give a Charlatan power over  you you almost never get it back."  

The Anguish From Blind Hatred

I am anguished and sickened by the Tsunami wave of hatred of virulently sick and utterly despicable LIES, fabrications and tales of "genocide" by unscrupulous, disingenuous and utterly mendacious broadcasts by "World News Media" personalities and articles by journalists.

In stark contrast to today's world wide virulent anti-Israel and anti-Jewish hatred, at one time the renewal of Jewish life in ‎‎“Eretz Yisrael” was not an ‎obstacle to the Arab world. We were not demonized as we are ‎today by the ‎‎“Falestinians” and “Human Rights Groups”.

These lies by "World News Media" personalities and articles by journalists have influenced millions and have corrupted, defamed and tarnished the image of Israel. At the same time these lies have been helped to spread like a plague, a pandemic across the planet by educators -teachers and professors who have been brainwashed by the lies. The combination of the failure of educators to educate the truth and journalists to retain integrity and honesty has in their defamation of Israel and “Zionism”, has awaken the old ancient hatred of the Jewish people.

In our responses as Jews and as Israelis we CANNOT allow ourselves to stoop to the level of the bottom of the slime pool as those who defame and slander Israel do. 

Also we should NOT stoop to the utter vile hatred of those Moslems who hate us since there are many Moslems who are friends and wish to live in peace with us. 

To show hatred of another's religion because of the ignorance of a few is exactly the same SICK mentality of anti-Semitism!

Why are we considered to be"The Chosen People"? Could it be throughout time we have been more MORALISTIC?

Were we "chosen" because, despite ALL the hatred and persecutions we have suffered over the multitude of generations, we aspire to behave and act constructively and beneficially?

Our learned ones our sages lead the way and to teach and educate. We were taught NOT to hate and destroy.

We have shown this in our belief of "Pikuach nefesh" the "sanctity of life" countless times through the generations. As a country, Israel has shown this in our assistance to those people and countries that have suffered tragedies and disasters and were in dire need of medical care, rescue teams and comfort. 

We have accomplished much of this "Tikkun Olam" by the intelligence of our people in developing cures for deadly disease, in new ways to feed those who are hungry, by developing technologies to purify water and to glean clean water from the air.

We ARE the, "People of the Book" - for we learn, we read and comprehend. We are educators - Rabbis teachers, if you may, to the masses of the Tower of Babel.

Here is exactly WHAT Emir -Prince Faisal Husseini, king of Syria and Iraq once learned and understood from his association with Jews when he wrote to US Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter, an associate of Dr. Chaim Weizmann president of the Zionist Organization ‎professing his support for Zionist aims in 1919: 

"We feel that the Arabs and Jews are cousins...and We Arabs, especially the educated among us look with the deepest sympathy on the Zionist movement....We are working together for a reformed and revived Near East,...The Jewish movement is national and not imperialist." 

"Our movement is national and not imperialist, and there is room in Syria for us both. Indeed I think that neither can be a real success without the other.

People less informed and less responsible than our leaders and yours, ignoring the need for cooperation of the Arabs and Zionists have been trying to exploit the local difficulties that must necessarily arise in Palestine in the early stages of our movements. Some of them have, I am afraid, misrepresented your aims to the Arab peasantry, and our aims to the Jewish peasantry, with the result that interested parties have been able to make capital out of what they call our differences.

I wish to give you my firm conviction that these differences are not on questions of principle, but on matters detail such as must inevitably occur in every contact of neighboring peoples, and as are easily adjusted by mutual good will. Indeed nearly all of them will disappear with fuller knowledge.

I look forward, and my people with me look forward, to a future in which we will help you and you will help us, so that the countries in which we are mutually interested may once again take their places in the community of civilized peoples of the world."   

With the help of God, Inshallah, may ALL leaders of Moslem nations realize these words of Emir Faisal so that we may we all raise and EDUCATE our children in the ways of peace and happiness. It is OUR fervent hope that we know no more the sadness and cruelty of hatred, jealousy and war!

Arab voices regarding the REAL TRUTH of the non-acceptance of Peace by the Palestinian's

 Here is more truth regarding the conflict from Khaled Abu Toameh

There is growing number of Arabs who are fed up with the non acceptance of Peace by the "Palestinians" -represented by overly corrupt leaders who abscond with aid money, the non construction of proper infrastructure -water, sewage and electricity and the waste on weapons and munitions used to commit real "war crimes". All of which is being carried out through the continuous efforts of Iran to destabilize the Arab countries with the help of the mullahs' proxies in the Middle East, including Hamas. 

Abdulah Bin Binjad Al Otaibi, Saudi writer and researcher, Al-Ittihad, May 17, 2021. Wrote that the Hamas terrorist group:

"Was well prepared for this war by building trenches in which its members can take shelter, while innocent Palestinians were being killed. Hamas likes to play the role of victim and kill Palestinians to win Arab, Islamic and international sympathy." 

"Real sympathy with the Palestinian people means searching for solutions for an actual and practical peace that guarantees their safety, security, and development"

and that... 

"The solutions should also stop those [Hamas] who are ready to burn Palestine and its people."

Al Otaibi noted that the Hamas terrorist group carried out a bloody coup in 2007 against the Palestinian Authority in the Gaza Strip. 

"Some ask, is this the right time to present the crimes of Hamas. This is precisely the best time to do so. The reader can conduct a quick search on the Internet to learn about the crimes that Hamas has committed against the Palestinians. Hamas has the right to destroy its homes with its own hands, but it has no right to destroy the homes of Palestinians and underestimate their blood and the blood of their children."

 Al Otaibi called on Arab countries to help the Palestinians get new leaders.

"Hamas and its Muslim Brotherhood patrons do not care about the suffering or interests of the Palestinians," ... "They only care about demonizing those who stand against them. Hamas is saying: Let the Palestinians die for the sake of a Muslim Brotherhood victory."

Ahdeya Ahmed Al Sayed, President of the Bahrain Journalists Association, Twitter, May 16, 2021.

"Hamas did not use the children of Ismail Haniyeh, Khaled Mashaal or Ali Khamenei as human shields. Hamas used the Palestinian people [as human shields]." 

Saudi writer, Mishary Dhayidi, warned that Hamas was aligned with Iran and the enemies of the Arabs and pointed out that Hamas has been associated with the Houthi militia in Yemen, Hezbollah, Egyptian terrorists and Qasem Soleimani, the commander of Iran's Quds Force who was killed last year in a US targeted drone attack near Baghdad International Airport in Iraq.

Emirati writer Al-Sheikh Wuldalsalek accused both Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas and Hamas of "trafficking" in the Palestinian issue.

"Abbas wants to cover up for this decision to postpone the Palestinian elections so that he can continue to sit on the presidential chair at the expense of Palestinian blood," and that "Hamas aspires to increase its popularity and drain the pockets of those who see it as a resistance movement by launching futile missiles that harm it more than doing any good."

Al-Sheikh Wuldalsalek accused Iran and Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan of : "exploiting Palestinian blood without any shame or conscience."

"A few months ago, we were very happy with the signing of the Abraham Peace Accords [with Israel], which the people rely on to create peace that benefits everyone politically, economically and socially," Wuldalsalek wrote. "But the extremists are working to kill this dream. It is sad that some are working hard for peace, while others are working hard for the sake of war and the continuation of the conflict."

Egyptian writer Khaled al-Berry advised that; "criticism of Hamas is in the interest of the Palestinians, now and tomorrow" and it "is a message of awareness, caution, and a warning about the consequences of its organizational and regional ties."

Former Jordanian Minister of Information Saleh Al-Gholab said that Hamas should choose between being a Palestinian group or "a Muslim Brotherhood movement belonging to Iran." Al-Gholab pointed out that in 2007 Hamas launched a bloody coup against the Palestinian Authority and threw members of its rivals in Fatah from rooftops.

These voices show that the Arab world has grown tired of the non-acceptance of the Palestinian's to realize that their fantasy of return and destruction of the Jewish state is not worth the cost. 

Those who are demonstrating against Israel and Jews in the US, Canada and Europe might want to tune in to what Arabs themselves are saying about Hamas, Iran, Hezbollah and other terrorist groups. If they bothered to listen, they would understand that as far as many Arabs are concerned, the real threat to the future of Arab and Muslim children is coming from Iran and Islamic terrorist groups, and not from Israel. 

These Arabs evidently understand what the anti-Israel activists around the world fail to see -- that Hamas has brought nothing but disaster and despair to the two million Palestinians living under its rule in the Gaza Strip.

These Arabs also seem to understand that Israel is not waging war on the Palestinians, but against an Islamist terrorist group whose charter openly calls for jihad (holy war) and the elimination of Israel.

These Arabs can also see that if one cares about the Palestinians, why would one want them ruled by terrorists who place weapons caches near hospitals and schools, and use children as human shields?

Additionally, those who are condemning Israel for defending itself against the rocket and missile attacks need to see what article 15 of the Hamas charter states:

"The day the enemies usurp part of Muslim land, Jihad becomes the individual duty of every Muslim. In the face of the Jews' usurpation, it is compulsory that the banner of Jihad be raised."

The message that the sane Arab writers and political analysts who are NOT "bamboozled by lies" are trying to send to those Westerners who consider themselves "pro-Palestinian" is that: 

"Hamas serves as a pawn in the hands of Iran and the Muslim Brotherhood in the fight against Israel and the West."

                                                    and

"Criticism of Hamas does not make you anti-Palestinian; on the contrary, holding Hamas responsible for the violence and bloodletting actually serves the interests of the Palestinians."

When dealing with Rectal Brained detractors of Israel

I apologize in advance BUT this is long and you should read it to the end. ;-)

As we Hasbaranik's - those of us who disseminate positive information abroad about the State of Israel and its actions- know it is our voluntary work of love of Israel that is in the forefront of the battle for world opinion.

From experience - and WHAT inspires me is that I have been privately messaged, by many young Millenials and older persons who are reading my factual and researched replies to the utter fabrications and mendacious lies of "Detractors of Israel" trolls.

So this morning with cup of coffee in hand I opened my computer, to "briefly" review the websites that purport to present the "news". As usual I saw the "atypical" distortions of history and facts on Facebook by several let us "politely" call them enthusiasts for the Tragedy Tourists of Nachbaland (the Arabs of the Mandated Areas). I noticed. yet again, that the detractors of Israel were focusing on Shlomo Sand and his accusation that today's Jews are not real Jews and ergo are not "indigenous" to the land - strengthening the accusation that Zionists -read Jews- are "occupiers".

It never fails to amaze me that a "person"; who is NOT a professor of Middle Eastern History nor is he a genealogist, is used as a source for hate filled propaganda. Sand is a total fool and has already been debunked many times by real professors of Middle Eastern History and genealogists.

Sand’s book has been criticized by many REAL professors of Middle Eastern History and actual geneticists for presenting "dubious theories" regarding Jewish identity as historical facts. Specifically his fraudulent “invention” that Ashkenazi Jews are descended from Khazars, who purportedly converted in the early Middle Ages. Actual Genetic research by dozens of real geneticists has proven beyond all doubt that Sand's allegations are "a myth with no factual basis."

If his material were submitted to me a REAL Historian as a student paper I would reject it outright as plagiarism of the contents of anti-Jewish websites.

I draw your attention to notice those who hail Sand’s book as "groundbreaking scholarship"; Neo-Nazis, member's of the Hebrew Israelites of BLM,  jihadists, Aryan racist, anti-Semites and hate filled individuals of all stripes.

The fact that serious historians have dismissed Sand's books as; pseudo-academic poppycock, as fraud, and as little more than a comic books recycling of Neo-Nazi myths about Jews being Khazars, has NOT been absorbed by the Rectal Brain Community.

Sand’s conclusions from the imaginary “evidence” about the Khazar roots of Israelis, resemble those of his jihadi groupies, namely those that rant and rave and froth at the mouth that: "Israel has no right to exist and that Jews are not Jews at all!

Here is my reply to the "Detractors of Israel" and Rectal Brain enthusiasts for Nachbaland: 

There’s a new chapter in the ever-heated, ongoing, and somewhat esoteric debate over whether Ashkenazi Jews descended from the Khazars, a Turkic people who lived in the Caucasus region between the 7th and 10th centuries. 

A long-held theory from Yehuda Ha-Levi regarding the "Kuzari"-a text written in the form of a dialogue between a rabbi and a pagan, posits that members of the kingdom converted to Judaism at the behest of their ruler, a notion that fascinated Arthur Koestler who wrote the controversial 1976 book; "The Thirteenth Tribe: The Khazar Empire and its Heritage". The objective of  Koestler was to support a theory which would make the term 'anti-Semitism' become void of meaning. 

In a new article in the highly respected journal of Jewish Social Studies, Hebrew University researcher Shaul Stampfer argues there is no evidence from Medieval Jewish, Islamic or Christian texts that such a conversion took place.

“The silence of so many sources about the Khazars’ Judaism is very suspicious,” Stampfer once explained in an article by Haaretz;

“The Byzantines, the geonim [Jewish religious leaders of the sixth to eleventh centuries], the sages of Egypt—none of them have a word about the Jewish Khazars.”

Assuming it’s a myth, it’s one that offered Jews; “a source of encouragement in difficult times” Stampfer wrote in his study. 

“The history of the Khazars is an important topic in its own right and deserves to be studied seriously and carefully, without the unnecessary distraction of looking for hints of a conversion that never took place. The same is true for Jewish history. Research must be subordinated to facts and not to personal agendas.”

Stampfer’s findings serve as a retort to the controversial work of Tel Aviv University historian Shlomo Sand whose 2009 book, The Invention of the Jewish People, argued for the link between Ashkenazi Jews and the Khazars of the Steppe and saw in that truism an upending of the Jews’ historical claims on the land of Israel.

Recent tests of DNA has genetically proven that many "Ashkenazic" Jews are descendants from those who were enslaved prisoners sent to Northern Italy to work the stone quarries and as field hands on estates of wealthy Romans. The remainder of Jews from Judea, the Galilee and Shomron continued to live on their lands, even after the destruction and horrific suppression of the Bar Kochba uprising in 135CE. Some converted to Christianity, while the most who survived the Islamic conquest in 634 CE were forced to embrace Islam. 

This controversy of the Khazarim motivated me to get a DNA test. So I sent my DNA for testing and the results showed that I was a descendant - paternal Haplogroup - of those Jews enslaved by the Romans that were sent back to be slaves in the marble quarries in Northern Italy, -as described by Josephus and other later Roman historians.

Furthermore the DNA test found my maternal Haplogroup is linked to the "Four mothers" the maternally inherited mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA), in close to one-half of Ashkenazi Jews which can be traced back to only 4 women carrying distinct mtDNAs that are virtually absent in other populations.
The DNA result show that I am a Levi and that I belong to the pre-Diaspora Jewish population Haplogroup Q-L245 a descendant branch of the Q-M378 lineage and is the most common branch in West Asian groups such as Iranians and Jewish populations.

The Haplogroup Q-L315 indicative of post diaspora Jews has only been identified in one Ashkenazi Jewish sample. Thus, it is presumed to have arisen after the Q-L245 branch to which it belongs became part of the pre-Diaspora Jewish population.

As for my Maternal DNA results (mtDNA Haplogroup H1e4) it showed something of interest and it gave proof to the words of Josephus and early Roman Historians!

With the defeat of the "First" Jewish revolt against Rome 66-73CE Titus sacked the Temple and stole the wealth stored in the Temple. And to celebrate his "Victory" he ordered the construction of a "Victory Arch" the colosseum in Rome. He also sent over 100,000 Jewish male slaves to work the quarries in Northern Italy. It was during this period that the Jewish slaves must have taken wifes from the Carthaginian women slaves as related by Josephus and other early 1st to 3rd century Roman historians.   

The new findings contradict previous assertions that Ashkenazi mitochondrial lineages originated in the Near East, or from mass conversions to Judaism in the Khazar kingdom. “We found that most of the maternal lineages don’t trace to the north Caucasus, which would be a proxy for the Khazarians, or to the Near East, but most of them emanate from Europe,” said coauthor Martin Richards, an archaeo geneticist at the University of Huddersfield in the U.K.

Richards and colleagues’ story “seems reasonable,” said Harry Ostrer, a human geneticist at Albert Einstein College of Medicine of Yeshiva University in New York City who was not involved in the study.  “It certainly fits with what we understand about Jewish history.”

Ostrer's genetic research among the Hassidic community has shown that the majority of Ashkenazi Jews today have ancestry in central or Eastern Europe. Previous work has demonstrated that just four mitochondrial types, passed down from four mothers, account for 40 percent of variation in Ashkenazi Jews’ mitochondrial DNA, and some researchers have published evidence of Near Eastern origins for these Ashkenazi mitochondrial types.

Most Zionist thinkers were aware of the assimilation of ancient Jews into the local Arab population specifically tribes in the area of Hebron. Yitzhak Ben Zvi, later president of Israel, and David Ben Gurion, its first prime minister, were aware of this fact that the peasants of the Mandates areas were the descendants of the inhabitants of ancient Judea.

What is NOT mentioned in ALL of Sand diatribe of lies is that half or more of the Jewish population either pre-existed, or as in the time of previous periods of drought or war, migrated to other areas throughout North Africa (cree Morocco, Libya, Tunisia, Egypt), Yemen and Asia Minor -primarily the areas of Iraq and Iran.

Many Jews during the time of King Solomon either sailed to foreign lands and intermarried with locals as in the case of Ethiopian Jewry and the Beni Yisrael of India. Or were descendants of warriors who were mercenaries during the time of Alexander The Great -the Beni Menashe or the members of the 5th Century BCE Jewish Garrison sent to guard Elephantine Island in the Nile river valley.
