Postcards from HAMAS-occupied Gaza









On Vlad's Blog I found (among the many fascinating news they bring) a link to  the following article with videos which I reproduce here  in toto and unedited: 



Israel often warns 'Palestinians' whose homes are about to be bombed because their residents include Hamas terrorists by a 'knock on the roof.' We've often seen this practice from the IAF's aerial video, but on Saturday, the Gaza-based Watania news agency posted ground-level video to its YouTube account.

This recent footage from Gaza shows an airstrike by the Israeli Air Force of a home belonging to the Nofal family. A warning rocket is fired first and then, a minute later, an F-16 airstrike hits the building via two missiles.

According to Watania (from whom I did not take the video), about 15 minutes elapsed between the warning and the home's destruction. The family in the building - the Nofal family - escaped.

Let's go to the videotape.




                           






London's Daily Mail describes what you've just seen.

Gaza-based Watania news agency posted the footage to YouTube yesterday, describing it as the moment the home of Samir Nofal and his family was bombed.

Filmed from across the road from the three-storey target, it shows how passing aircraft first fire small rockets at the roof of the building, causing a blast powerful enough to blow out the curtains and shake the street.

The house is not destroyed but, according to the caption, around 15 minutes later the warplane returns. This time it fires two fully armed missiles at the building, causing a tremendous explosion and filling the street with smoke and debris.

As the dust gradually clears it can be seen that the structure has been devastated, its front has been blown off and what remains is a skeleton with the trappings of daily life spilling out.

Yes, true. but notice something else. The home next to it - which presumably was not inhabited by terrorists - escaped completely unscathed. Where else have you ever seen that?

And here's what it looks like from the air. Note the secondary explosions at the end. Do you think you saw those in the first video as well? You probably did.

Let's go to the videotape.











Israel, I stand proudly on your side.

Who Put the BS in BDS?


Thank you Vlad for this new Andrew Klavan. It's just the right  time to highlight yet another aspect of the empty "WeDontHateJewsBut" rhetoric:








The few  BDS 'activists'  I had the unappetising displeasure to see in action had that slightly threatening  side-show alley demeanour, and quite a few of them were unloved looking post-menopausal or fat  females whose only other pleasure besides  Jew-hating is probably poisoning pigeons in the park....




    





Update June 2015:

"Who is really behind this nasty Boycott?"


Here is a little extract from the article which you can read in toto here


"...Most recently, official representatives of the Palestinian Authority, the PA, engaged in an international effort that almost booted Israel out of FIFA, the most prestigious international sporting association, a step which could have denied any Israel sports team from competing in any sports competition, anywhere in the world.
The direct involvement of the PA in this massive BDS activity revealed what had been known for years, which is that the Palestinian Authority in Ramallah organized the BDS “movement” in 2005. The BDS web site speaks for itself. http://www.bdsmovement.net/, It is no more than a front for the PA.
BDS has indeed fostered an image that makes it seem as if it is a spontaneous grass roots movement.
Yet it does not take much research to discern that BDS is not listed anywhere as an independent organization, nor does BDS even hold or own a bank account, anywhere in the world. That is meant to foster the grass roots image, but the money involved has to come from somewhere..."

The "Middle East Problem" 101



Although it's against my voluble nature, I'm going minimalist on this one. No "explanation", it IS the explanation, no music, it would detract. It its the clearest explanation of the so-called "Middle East Problem" I have seen yet. Thank you Ban Coran for the link.

HAMAS kill children ISRAEL saves them



“We can forgive the Arabs for killing our children. 
We cannot forgive them for forcing us to kill their children. 
We will only have peace with the Arabs 
when they love their children more than they hate us.”










"The Israel Air Force called off an airstrike on a “terror activity site” on Thursday after spotting children in the vicinity of the target, a recently released video shows.



“There are people close to our target,” the pilot carrying out the mission is heard saying in the clip. “It looks like there are people, possibly children in our targeted area.” 

An operator responds: “We are not going to strike this target now, let’s move on...” from "Algemeiner"

Breaking: 

The latest news from the BBC (Britain) and ABC/SBS (Australia) who source their "news" from Al Jezeera: 









5 Palestinian/Arab Lies (video)



  






The video below, at nearly 25 minutes  might be a little long, considering that our attention span these days is that of a humming bird on speed, but, looking at  what is happening right now with Israel responding to the  relentless rocket attacks on its civilian population, and the "useful idiots for Palestine" having gone into overdrive, I think it is really worth watching. Get yourself a cup of coffee or something stronger  sit back and dont relax but look, listen and learn...

Israel's Proportional Response to HAMAS








One of my favourite writers, Daniel Greenfield aka Sultan Knish  in his elegantly witty (and I think quintessentially Jewish) way  puts it in a nutshell: 



"…The world as a whole, not just the occasional liberal brat, will continue being disappointed in Israel for not having magically and non-violently resolved the dilemma of people shooting at it no matter what it does. After all there's already a book titled, "How to Make Peace in the Middle East in Six Months or Less" on the shelf. Why not just read it and do what it says?..." 


The Jew Haters, the professional compassionistas, the euphemistically named enemies of democracy such as  nearly any groupuscule sponsored by the UN these days, and assorted herds and hordes are - at the moment - siding with a pack that even the Obama (mis)lead US qualifies as Terrorist Group: HAMAS. The more moderate  ones of the "IdonthateJewsIonlyhateIsraelandZionists" religion point their accusatory fingers at Israel, simpering:  "Disproportional Response  tsk tsk tsk" . It is to them that I direct the question: 

So, what would be a "Proportional Response?" 


Not expecting a reasonable answer from "them", this clip of West Wing will do it for me.

3 Jewish Boys





I have followed the news about the kidnapping and murder of these 3 Jewish boys closely, hoping, against what we have come to expect from the culture of their terrorist abductors and killers, that they might be saved. I just  did not know how to post about it. I still don't quite know, not wanting to add more pain by perhaps violating some deeply Jewish tradition. But post I must, especially as a non-Jew.



I will start by sending my deepest personal condolences to the families of the 3 Israeli boys, so brutally kidnapped and killed by Palestinian terrorists. They were murdered for being Jewish, and so my condolences go also to the Jewish people everywhere.

The French pray for a German Soccer Victory...




...because tomorrow they play against Algeria and a win by the Maghrebians means violence, burnt cars, destroyed shopfronts, "tournantes" (i.e. gang-rapes), and increasingly threatening claims of "France is Ours!!!".  Hordes of Algerians will take over the main streets in nearly every town and city in France, including the  Champs-Élysées. 

Here is a little slice of life in France after an Algerian soccer victory: this one was recorded last week after Algeria qualified for the quarter finale in the World Cup. It was relatively "tame", only one car was burnt (there were many more all through France yet  the main media will not report on those bonfires  in the interest of not "inflaming" what they call "le vivre ensemble de la diversité").





   



and I too want the German Team to win tomorrow...

Marine Le Pen on Anti-Semitism in France




I am quite sure that question was meant  to "trip" Marine LePen. A considerable part of the  French Media hates only one thing more than the Jews and that is Le Front National, the Party of Marine Le Pen.  But I was chuffed  to see that this journalist was not rewarded with a "Petite Mort" for himself   while his wannabe trick question got shot down in flames. (I told you I like clichés) 

He introduced himself as "of the Jewish religion": I wonder if this was meant as an alibi for his obvious dislike of Jews, used a little like those real Jew-Haters from the BDS movement do it when they present  themselves as "Jewish" or "Child of Holocaust Survivors" etc to buy some credibility....... soooo many DNAs, sooooo  little time to test them........









In case I have not said that already, and repeatedly:


I JUST LOVE MARINE LE PEN !


:)




And here is another magnificent French woman,  I was a fan of her long before I knew she was Jewish. I came upon her grave not all that long ago while walking around a cemetery, as one does. Until then  I only knew her under her stage name  Barbara. She is buried in Paris in her family grave. Born Monique Serf in Paris in 1930 as a Jew she was, of course, a target for the Nazis. Two decades after the end of the war she travelled to the heart of Germany, Göttingen and this was the magnificent result:

An Arab named Aldo Sterone



I must confess, my door was nearly shut on my willingness to ever like an Arab Muslim, especially one from Algeria. Although I had  been fighting my prejudices for a long time , I had finally  come to the conclusion that prejudices cease to be prejudices if their truth is confirmed so often and so widely. I had enough personal experience, anecdotal evidence and statistics to just about lock the door on my conclusions and throw away the key. A lot of bad things have happened and are happening "in the name of Allah" and the worst among the often very violent  perpetrators from the Maghreb  (at least in France) seem to be originally from Algeria like for example the killer of those little  little Jewish children in Toulouse


And then, along comes a voice like the one of "Aldo Sterone":  


All I know of him so far is that he left his native Algeria some 20 years ago and now lives in London. From what I gleaned  from his videos, he is Muslim and Arab. He records his  10 minutes meditations in an underground car park and, although his target audience seem to be his compatriots, he has captivated me and, for the first time I actually had a  glimpse of an Arab perspective I cannot only live with, but which makes me see that their "aggression" might actually be a justified fear.  

In this video, recorded just after the recent European elections, he tells us why Arabs should actually vote for Marine Le Pen:




   






   





Then, a few days ago, "Aldo Sterone"  recorded a tape which showed the deep love he has for the country of his birth, and what  I found quite poignant is the "tough" love he has for all but the terminally lost cases of his compatriots. That obviously did not go down well and this video is his answer to the attacks (and probably even serious threats) he received, as do all who DARE criticise Islam: 










Enrico Macias, the singer of this song, a Jew, is also born in Algeria. He had to leave the country he still loves and because of the objections by some Algerian politicians and assorted bullies  he cannot return à la recherche des temps perdus.  

Perhaps the same destiny will await Aldo Sterone if he continues to be so brave and outspoken.

Australia: Dhimmy or Whore?




Et tu, Julia Bishop?



Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop
backtracked on statements against the term
"Occupied East Jerusalem"







Australian Prime Minister Tony Abbott, while still leader of the Liberal opposition in December 2012, had told Haaretz that a government he leads will be "unashamedly and unapologetically pro-Israel, akin to that of [Canadian Prime Minister] Stephen Harper's Conservative government"

In an interview with the Times of Israel, Julie Bishop (a lawyer in her former life) questioned the accuracy of the term "occupied East Jerusalem", stating:


“I would like to see which international law has declared them [Jewish settlements] illegal.”

Also, earlier this month, Australian Attorney-General George Brandis, speaking in Parliament, said that the administration does not consider the eastern section of Israel’s capital city to be “occupied.” The next day, in a statement drafted in coordination with Bishop and Peter Varghese, secretary of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade – following a lively debate among Australian lawmakers – Brandis reinforced the message, saying:

“The description of east Jerusalem as ‘occupied East Jerusalem’ is a term freighted with pejorative implications, which is neither appropriate nor useful. It should not and will not be the practice of the Australian government to describe areas of negotiation in such judgemental language.”


Just for a little while I thought that Australia's new government would be different and I was quite proud of it. But, threatened with blackmailed with economic sanctions by Arab Palestinians and local Muslims, Australia backtracked on its honourable opposition to the term "Occupied East Jerusalem". So, today they are just another dhimmy - or a kind of  "whore of Babylon" and dancing around the golden Camel, if you forgive me for getting my metaphors and bible-stories all mixed up: being ashamed of my government does that to me! Pffft !

Was God the first Zionist ?



"I don't hate Jews, I just hate Zionism" 

...or weasel words to that effect are the classical protestation of Jew Haters who all come from different (but often quite low) levels of intelligence. Taking a walk through some of their brains, one would probably find quite a lot of the images from  that nasty hoax The Protocols of the Elders of Zion. I will not challenge the probably very short attention span of my beloved readers with long explanations of "what is Zionism" but for those who would like to know more, this virtual library would probably be a good place to start with. 

I just want to tell you about  a  recent exchange I had with a rather fundamental Christian of the "Jews-killed-our-Jesus" kind. I had told him about one of these happy-making 'AHA' moments my blogger friend,  Geofffff, had given me with his statement:  

"Moses was the first Zionist":

Christian:  
"Moses did nothing of his own volition. He just obeyed God. It was God who told him to take the Jewish people out of Egypt and to lead them to safety in their promised land, Israel."  (I'm quoting from memory).  
Me:  

BINGO, so it was not Moses who was the first Zionist, but God himself.













Quote of the day:

"They dont hate the Jews because of Israel,
They hate Israel because of the Jews. "

"Peaceful" majorities are irrelevant...




"...it is the violent "minorities" who rape, torture and crucify..."

Holding Umbrellas


Obama, the best friend the Taliban ever had, Erdogan for whom democracy "...is like a bus, you use it to get to your destination..", the Justice Minister of France, Christiane Taubira, the best friend la canaille  criminals ever had, and François Hollande, the President of many mistresses all seem to have at least one thing  in common: they don't like to hold their own umbrellas. The German Chancellor does, as seen during her present visit to France. I prefer people who hold their own and so it follows that of all those politicians I like Angela Merkel best. 















"Noblesse oblige"
