Zionists in the US

What will Zionists do when Israeli is no more? Who will they hate then?  Historians?

Resistance movements

Each resistance movement builds on the one that preceded it, and so on until full liberation.

The sign on Herzl Street in Jerusalem says: "There are no innocent people in Gaza"

Israeli terrorist propaganda and French occupation propaganda in Algeria

Correction

It should be incompatible of course, not compatible.  See what happens when I blog as soon as I wake up?

Logic of US news coverage

Palestinians kill Israel soldiers and Israelis kill Palestinians civilians but Palestinians are the terrorists.

New York Times makes a correction: only 117 Palestinians were butchered by Israel

"The article also misstated, using information from the ministry, the number of bodies recovered from the rubble during Saturday’s lull in fighting. One hundred seventeen bodies were recovered, not 147."

Look at the crude propaganda allowed by US newspapers

Forget about the content, just see this headline to an article by the former head of Israeli terrorist military intelligence: "To Save Gaza, Destroy Hamas".  What if I send an article to New York Times titled: To save the Middle East, destroy Israel".  Will they print it, you think?

are they militants or suspected militants?

Notice that US media are careful in their language except when it comes to enemies and victims of Israel.  Look at this sentence: "Suspected militants patrolling a road in western Afghanistan shot and killed 14 Shiite Muslim travelers".  So those people commit a massacre and they are "suspected militants" but when Israel kills Palestinians or target practice on them, they are immediately labeled "Hamas militants". 

No looting in Gaza

"There was no looting, nor any police on the streets."  Of course. Unlike the thieves of the Israeli army.  Israeli terrorist soldiers are known to steal whatever they see in Arab homes. Family members in South Lebanon in the 1980s used to say: don't leave money or cigarettes on the tables.  Israeli soldiers will steal them.  Kid you not.  But then again: those who steal the land would refrain from stealing cigarettes?

maybe the dead animals in Gaza will get Western sympathy, but I doubt it

"There were many dead animals, too. Donkeys, horses, cows were scattered at the edges of fields and in the marketplaces. The farm towns at the edges of Gaza are where the shepherds live, and in the shelling they were forced to abandon their flocks."

The US media now refer to tunnels as terror tunnels but with this historic exception

"The value of tunnels is magnified in asymmetric conflicts, in which a small insurgent force takes on a larger, more powerful enemy. In the Bar Kokhba revolt in Judea (132-136 A.D.), Jewish rebels used tunnels to launch lightning commando raids on superior Roman forces, the aim being to sow fear and undermine morale."  Now that was resistance.

look at this propaganda headline in the WP

"The enemy below: Why Hamas tunnels scare Israel so much".  Next: Why Palestinian children scare Israel so much.

Tunnels are vital for the life AND defense of Gaza

And they will be rebuilt

Justice and freedom of the Palestinians

Zionists habitually distort our words and invent sayings and attribute them to their enemies. It is a long established Zionist method. But let me tell you: the quotation attributed to me in the new book The BDS War Against Israel is very much mine:  "Justice and freedom for the Palestinians are incompatible with the existence of the state of Israel".  But is not axiomatic? Who can dispute that?

What about those Palestinians killed in West Bank?

How will the US media sell those murders? Will they say that they were launching missiles at Israel? Will they say that this was Hamas? Will they say that Hamas fighters were hiding behind them? Will they say that Israel was protecting itself from youth throwing firecrackers?

Explosions of unknown origins hit Gaza: possibly from another planet

Washington Post headline: "Hospital in Gaza hit by explosions, causing numerous civilian casualties"

Son of the Saudi King is a business partner with a Mossad-linked Israeli company

"The drive by foreign companies to grab a piece of the action in gas-rich Turkmenistan is reported to be producing some strange bedfellows -- like PetroSaudi, owned by the son of King Abdallah, and Merhav, an Israeli conglomerate run by former intelligence officer Yosef Maiman.
According to Intelligence Online, a Paris-based Web site that covers global security issues, the companies from these longtime Middle Eastern adversaries are negotiating a partnership "through intermediaries" to explore the Serdar field that straddles the border between Turkmenistan and oil-rich Azerbaijan....Maiman once worked for the Mossad, Israel's foreign intelligence service, and is reputedly linked to a network of companies owned by the agency."

Arabs on US TV screens: regarding Hamas

How I despise any Arab who appears on US TV screens and prefaces his remarks by pointing out how much he detests Hamas, as if we are having an ideological discussion and as if Israel is bombing Hamas ideology.  This is a typical tactic of those loyal to UAE and Saudi royal interests.  The tricks are too obvious.  I can discuss my views and opinions of Hamas when the story is about Hamas. The story now is that Israel is launching a war on the Palestinian people.  When Israel was bombing Palestinian refugee camps in Lebanon all throughout my years growing up, there was no Hamas and no Hizbullah.

Chris Gunness does not mention Israel when he talks about the bombing of Beit Hanoun

"On the record quote from UNRWA Spokesperson, Chris Gunness: 

According to the information UNRWA has gathered so far about the fatal incident at the UNRWA school in Beit Hanoun on Thursday, there were hundreds of people at the installation when it was hit. We had staff at the school when the incident took place reporting in, as the shelling, which caused multiple fatalities and casualties, occurred. In addition  we have spoken to numerous eye witnesses. According to our reports, after the first shell, there were several others in the close vicinity of the school within a matter of minutes.

We reiterate our condemnation and dismay at the incident and the loss of life. We call for a full investigation. It is important in a case like this where a clearly marked UN school in which hundreds of people took refuge is hit in this way, that there should be full transparency and accountability. We look forward to a report that is fair and objective in establishing the facts."

Who sits without a giant picture of himself behind him?

In Israel, an Arab would be arrested for insulting a Zionists, but Israeli mobs regularly chant racist insults to Arabs

“Gaza is a graveyard,” sing joyful Israeli youths"

Israel ambassador in the US said that she was launching missiles at Israel

The truce according to Israel

I don't think that I have seen this mentioned or highlighted in the US press, but according to the interpretation of the truce by Israel, its terrorist soldiers can continue their "operation" in the tunnels and can continue to kill whomever they see and can continue to occupy parts of Gaza--the parts that they dared to advance to. 

They live in this small store because Israeli terrorists destroyed their homes and killed their families

Shujaiyeh had about 100,000 Palestinian inhabitants

Make no mistake about it. It is the logic (and dialectic) of history--and future. There will come a day when Palestinians will do to Israelis what Israelis have done to Palestinians.

inspiring: the new Arab generation

I wrote this in Arabic but wish to write it hear for those Arabs in the diaspora who don't read Arabic: the new Arab generation (and from all Arab states) have done a great job in social media in support of Gaza. They are responsible for tipping the balance in the coverage against the Israeli war criminals.  Keep it up, non-stop, because Israeli aggression is non-stop.

In numbers

They were killed while killing children

And the American media could not be prouder of them.  Imagine if this story begin thus: Ahmad so and so and Basim so and so grew up in America and had a passion for Palestine.  Their love of that nation led both to join Hamas and fight against Israeli occupation in Gaza."  Can you imagine.  Look at this actual trashy intro:  "Max Steinberg and Nissim Sean Carmeli grew up in America and had a passion for Israel. Their love of that nation led both to join the Israel Defense Forces and fight against Hamas in Gaza Strip, where they were killed Sunday." (thanks Khaled)

The breakdown

The cult of Abu `Ubaydah

I have written this week that the Qassam spokesperson, Abu `Ubaydah, is probably the most popular Arab these days. This shows a t-shirt (with the caption "I am with the resistance") and a cologne by the name of Abu `Ubaydah.  This is a classic rule in Arab politics: the more you are demonized by Israel, the more popular you are, and vice versa.  (thanks Hossam)

Correction: it is a parody account of the Israeli terrorist army: The Israeli terrorist army tweeted this picture with this caption:

"One of our brave soldiers defending himself against a Hamas member who's in the deadly running away position #Gaza pic.twitter.com/5w9j74w0lk"  What does "deadly running away position" mean?

They don't have concrete to cover tombs in Gaza. They are using zinc.

UAE foreign minister tweets against Israel

It calls on people to retweet and it was retweeted, Sultan reports, more than 10,000.  I think such posts are intended to cover up UAE complicity in the Israeli war on Gaza.

Israeli embassy in London refers to Palestinian civilians as "Hamas civilians"

HRW

Do you notice that HRW is harsher in its tone against US war crimes than against Israeli war crimes?

Our country is a graveyard but Tawfiq Ziyad (not by Mahmud Darwish, take note)

 "Our Country is a Graveyard"
Our Country is a Graveyard (my translation):
"Gentlemen, you have transformed
our country into a graveyard
You have planted bullets in our heads,
and organized massacres
Gentlemen, nothing passes like that
without account
All that you have done
to our people is
registered in notebooks".

The ruins of Gaza: all what you have done to our people is registered in notebooks

Dumb Israeli propaganda in Arabic

I always say that it pleases to live to a day when Israeli propaganda has become dumber than Ba`thist and Saudi propaganda.  It really does.  Look at this Arabic language silly propaganda "ID card" of Hamas released by the Israeli terrorist army. It lists Hamas "roots" as atheist, and I don't even know what that means and no one in the Arab world will know.   Also, in the section of "course" (manhaj): it misspells the Arabic word كسر and write قسر which has a whole different meaning.  

The British Israeli lobby

"Pro-Israeli organisations in Britain look set to see their influence increase if the Conservatives win the next election, a film scrutinising the activities of a powerful but little-known lobby warns today.

At least half of the shadow cabinet are members of the Conservative Friends of Israel (CFI), according to a Dispatches programme being screened on Channel 4. The programme-makers describe the CFI as "beyond doubt the most well- connected and probably the best funded of all Westminster lobbying groups".

Inside Britain's Israel Lobby claims that donations to the Conservative party "from all CFI members and their businesses add up to well over £10m over the last eight years". CFI has disputed the figure and called the film "deeply flawed".

The programme also describes how David Cameron allegedly accepted a £15,000 donation from Poju Zabludowicz, a Finnish billionaire who chairs Bicom (the Britain Israel Communications and Research Centre). Zabludowizc, the film reveals, has business interests in an illegal West Bank settlement. He also gave £50,000 to Conservative Central Office. Zabludowicz says his contributions "are a matter of public record"."

And the award for the dumbest comment of the week goes to Richard Engel (a previous recepient)

"Huge damage in #gaza. But didnt see hamas men out helping with relief and recovery".  Somebody should tell this genius that the men he sees around him are Hamas men but that they did not brandish their weapons for the cameras, unless he thinks "Hamas men" don't like like human beings and are distinguished by special physical feature that makes them identificable in a crowd of people. US TV news correspondents tend to be the worst of all correspondents especially that they never reside in the region that they cover, with the exception of a few.

In numbers: Israel is a more efficient killer than either the Syrian regime or the Syrian rebels

From comrade Talal on those who argue that Syrian war is worse than Israeli massacres: "If you include the 3 recent episodes in Gaza (Cast Lead, Pillars of Clouds, and the Firm Edge), we are probably talking about 3000+ civilians dead and 15,000 wounded out of a population of say 2 million.  If you assume that the population of Syria is 12 times bigger than that of Gaza, the equivalent figures would be 36,000 dead and 180,000 wounded. And the Gaza figures were accrued over 3 short periods. In essence, I think the Israelis are the more efficient killers. "
