Sorry…
I don’t approve anti-Semitic, anti-Israel, pro-terrorist comments. I have done my homework, maybe you should do yours.
One Israeli Worth MORE Than Any Number Of Pallies!
Gilad Shalit freed in Israeli-Palestinian prisoner swap
Cheering crowds have greeted Israeli soldier Gilad Shalit as he arrived back in his northern hometown of Mitzpe Hila after five years in captivity in Gaza.
Sgt Shalit was flown by helicopter from an airbase in central Israel after undergoing medical tests.
I praise God this young man was finally reunited with his family Many prayers have been said for his safe return over his long imprisonment by the terrorists.
He was freed after Israel and the Islamist movement Hamas agreed a deal under which more than 1,000 Palestinians would also be released.
Many thousands thronged the streets of Gaza to greet the former prisoners.
There is one thing I do not understand. Why doesn’t Israel just execute those proven to have murdered innocent citizens? Having Israeli taxpayers to foot the bill to support these animals just makes no sense.
Israel freed 477 Palestinians on Tuesday, including people convicted of murder and of planning suicide attacks.
A few well placed bombs would deal with the problem. I’ve no doubt Israel could handle this issue quite efficiently.
Another 550 jailed Palestinians are to be freed next month under the deal.
Sgt Shalit is now home. Screw letting another 550 back on the streets. How about a bit of justice? sigh… Unlike the terrorists, Israelis are people of honor, and will keep their word.
In his first interview, Sgt Shalit told Egyptian TV he missed his friends and family. Looking drawn and pale, he said he hoped the exchange would help bring peace between Israel and the Palestinians.
Sgt Shalit was then transferred to the Kerem Shalom crossing between Egypt and Israel.
He made a phone call to his parents and was later flown to Tel Nof airbase, where the family was reunited.
Initial medical examinations found Sgt Shalit to be in a stable condition.
I pray for this young man’s mental stability. After being held by these animals for 5 years, I can’t imagine that he has not been affected emotionally, and mentally. Physical scars will heal, but the mental and emotional abuse he must have suffered, I’ve no doubt, will have a profound effect on the rest of his life. Continue to keep him in your prayers, that his healing will be whole.
Seeing pictures of the young man shortly after his release, the first thought that entered my mind was the pictures of liberated Jews from the concentration camps. Granted, thankfully, not quite as bad. But then, there really is no difference between the Nazis and the Islamic terrorists.
Genesis 12:3
Panetta Warns Israel Is Getting More Isolated, Says Negotiations With Palestinians Must Restart
Defense Secretary Leon Panetta warned Sunday that Israel is becoming increasingly isolated in the Middle East, and said Israeli leaders must restart negotiations with the Palestinians and work to restore relations with Egypt and Turkey.
In a blunt assessment made as he was traveling to Israel, Panetta said the ongoing upheaval in the Middle East makes it critical for the Israelis to find ways to communicate with other nations in the region in order to have stability.
“There’s not much question in my mind that they maintain that (military) edge,” Panetta told reporters traveling with him. “But the question you have to ask: Is it enough to maintain a military edge if you’re isolating yourself in the diplomatic arena? Real security can only be achieved by both a strong diplomatic effort as well as a strong effort to project your military strength.”
Hmmm… Let me think… now what in the world could make Israel ‘increasingly isolated’? 
Hey….I know! Could it be the fact that Israel is the ONLY democracy in the region? Could it also possibly be that all those other countries in that area just happen to be MUSLIM, and the muzzies have sworn to destroy Israel? Ya know…it’s just possible that Israel would prefer to survive, than to kowtow to anymore demands from islamonazis.
The Israelis HAVE negotiated with the so called palestinians. It has gained them nothing but death and destruction. It is not possible to ‘negotiate’ with people who have sworn to destroy you. There is no humanity there. Their own murderous pedophile prophet demands that they kill all ‘non-believers’. That would include all Jews, and all Christians. And anyone else who doesn’t kneel to their false god.
I am quite ashamed of the government of the U.S. The one TRUE ally we had in the region, and this administration is doing everything it can to alienate them. Not a wise move! Of course, they aren’t truly Christians, even though they claim to be. If they were really Christians, they would know that turning their backs on Israel is an offense to God!
Restraint?
UN chief urges Israel ‘restraint’ over Palestinian bid
UN leader Ban Ki-moon on Wednesday urged Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to act with “restraint” and “wisdom” over the Palestinian bid for full state membership of the United Nations.
Israel has angrily rejected the Palestinian campaign, threatening unspecified diplomatic reprisals. “The secretary general urged the prime minister to act with responsibility, wisdom and restraint towards the Palestinian approach to the United Nations,” said UN spokesman Martin Nesirky.
Why is it always Israel who is urged to ‘show restraint’? Are they the ones who are continuously lobbing bombs into civilian neighborhoods? No, don’t think so. Are the Israelis always throwing rocks at their neighbors in Gaza and the West Bank? Hmmm… Nope, don’t believe so. Is it Israel who has declared to destroy their neighbors? Ummm… Nuh uh! Was it Israelis who broke into a home and slaughtered an innocent family? Definitely not! As a matter of fact, just the opposite. Israel has shown EXTREME restraint when dealing with the Palestinians. A great deal more restraint than any nation on the planet! So, I would suggest to Mr Ban Ki-moon that he started facing reality, and urge major restraint to the Pallies. “Urge” them to cease and desist their violence towards the Israelis, and accept the fact, they aren’t going away!
Animals!
Arabs Throw Rocks at 20 Month Old Baby
Arabs threw rocks Wednesday at an Israeli car between Migdalim and Tapuach Junction in Samaria. A 20 month old girl was injured in the face.
The baby girl received treatment from Samaria Regional Authority medics and evacuated to a hospital. The Authority Head Gershon Mesika said: “The ‘men of peace’ of the Palestinian murder authority provide yet more proof, to those who still need it, as to just whom we are facing. We face low life terrorists who try to murder babies.”
“They hold an olive twig in their mouths and murder weapons in their hands. To these barbarian terrorists they want to give a state. The Nation of Israel is strong, the government needs to learn from it and be strengthened by its spirit – no to folding and surrendering, yes to construction and stamping out terrorism.”
What kind of filthy animals would attack children? Babies? Well, those oh so peace loving Muslims would do it, without a second thought. They can’t even be called human. Real humans have a soul, they care for their fellow beings, and especially find it in their hearts to care for children, no matter what religion, color, or nationality. They are not human. They are demons, servants of Satan!
A Threat?
US told: support Palestinian UN bid or risk ‘toxic’ reputation in Arab world
A former head of Saudi Arabian intelligence and ex-ambassador to Washington, Turki al-Faisal, has warned that an American veto of Palestinian membership of the United Nations would end the “special relationship” between the two countries, and make the US “toxic” in the Arab world.
The warning comes as Washington is scrambling to avoid a scenario where it alone casts a veto in the UN security council against the Palestinian bid for recognition of statehood, which is expected to be formally requested next week. The US is putting considerable pressure on the Palestinians not to submit the request, and on Britain – the only other permanent member of the security council that has not publicly supported the Palestinian request – to also exercise its veto if necessary.
I don’t know about you, but I don’t much care being threatened by a guy named after a butt ugly flightless bird, or anyone else for that matter. I see this as a line in the sand, and as far as I’m concerned, he can pound that sand!
I suppose they’re going to turn off the oil spigot if we don’t comply with their wishes? Fine. The price of a gallon of gas will shoot up, food prices will go sky high, and there will be peasants with pitchforks and torches at the door of the White House, demanding we drill right here, right now! We have plenty of oil right within the borders of the good ol’ U.S. of A. and it’s past time we make use of OUR resources! Yeah, fine…keep examining that “green” nonsense. Someday, it might even be worth it, but it ain’t there yet, and that should be obvious to anyone with half a brain.
There should NEVER be a “Palestinian State”! Why? Because if they give in on this, then the next step will be to totally destroy the State of Israel, and that is completely unacceptable! As a matter of fact, I believe all the land that God gave to His people should be returned ASAP! That is a LOT of land y’know. And I think the Israelis have been more than tolerant towards the evil that has plagued them.
Attacking Israel
Egypt: Protesters Tear Down Embassy Wall, Remove Israeli Flag
Just a short while after it was put up, hundreds of Egyptian protesters tore down on Friday the security wall that had recently been put up near the entrance of the Israeli Embassy in Cairo.
The Associated Press reported that Egyptian security forces did not intervene as crowds climbed the embassy security wall, pummeled it with hammers and tore away large sections of the barrier.
(…)
Channel 10 noted that the Egyptian security forces let the protesters do as they please after being pelted with stones when they tried to stop them. There were varying reports as to how many people were injured in the clashes that broke out and the numbers were ranging from 55 injuries to as many as 187. No Israelis, however, were injured.
Please note, half way through the video comes the shouts of “allah hu akbar”. Is this ‘what democracy looks like’? Well, to the Obama administration, it might, but to those who remember what liberty really is, it does not. It appears the Muslim Brotherhood is pretty much in charge, or at least those of their ilk. You know…the murderous pedophile worshipers. Islam and democracy do NOT mesh. It never has, it never will. They are contrary to each other, and anyone who actually believed that the “Arab Spring” was going to bring more liberty to the people of the various countries that have participated, are finding they sadly mistaken. The calls for murder of certain people isn’t exactly an indication of the hopes of democracy, is it? I don’t think so, but then, I might be a tad biased.
Senior Muslim Brotherhood cleric Dr. Salah Sultan has called to murder Israel’s Ambassador to Egypt, Yitzchak Lebanon, Arutz Sheva’s Dalit Halevy reports. Last week Sultan declared that all Israelis in Egypt should be murdered.
Could it be any more plain? No civilized country would consciously allow such animals to settle in their neighborhoods, would they? Well, sadly, it is happening. How long before we see such actions right here in the U.S.? It’s already happening in Great Britain. I would hope they are rethinking their open door to Muslims, and find a way to eject them. Now, if we could only get people on this side of the ocean to wake up to the dangers being posed by the increased “immigration” of those from nations who are anti-democracy.
A Real Mid-East Peace Plan
The Friendship of Israel
Child Abuse
While we get ready to send out kids to Vacation Bible School, and a variety of summer camps, to learn to ride horses, swim, make birdcages made out of Popsicle sticks, the Palestinians send their children to a different kind of camp.
Hamas Summer Camps Train Next Generation Terrorists
In 2010 Hamas ran camps for an estimated 100,000 campers, a number similar to 2009. The Islamic Jihad terror group ran 51 camps with 10,000 participating boys and girls.
Hamas spokesman Ismail Radwan reported the objectives of the camps were to raise a generation of children with ‘genuine Islamic values.’
“Children working for the interests of their homeland and to educate them to the culture of the Islamic faith so they will remember their goals, including Jerusalem and the prisoners,” Radwan said
In addition to indoctrination, Hamas terrorists give children paramilitary training. Banners are hung on the walls with slogans extolling jihad and ‘death for the sake of Allah.’
I realize that some kids can be a real pain in the hinder, but for a parent to hate their child so much they would rather have them commit suicide/murder, I just will NEVER understand. Why are the foolish left so supportive of such hatred? I thought they did everything “for the children”? Oh…wait a minute. I guess there isn’t much difference between killing a child, before or after their birth. They even contribute money to promote the death of children.
Isn’t it interesting that the Israelis will save a Palestinian child as quite as they’d save their own, yet the Palestinians will murder their own child as quick as they’d murder as Israeli one.
Brilliant Idea!
No Peace
Abbas: Netanyahu’s vision for peace is nothing we can build on
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas rejected Wednesday Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s vision for peace as outlined in his speech to Congress on Tuesday.
Addressing a meeting of the Palestine Liberation Organization in Ramallah, Abbas said Netanyahu’s vision for peace contained “nothing we can build on.”
Peace is not the objective. Never has been. Never will be.
Obama’s Pledges: Meant To Be Broken
Obama’s faithless pledges to Israel
Washington Times
The White House was caught by surprise by the furor over President Obama’s statements on Israel in his major foreign-policy speech on Thursday. Mr. Obama’s defenders pointed out his position is consistent with long-standing administration policy, which explains why the peace process has been a raging failure.
Apparently, the WH is in a constant state of surprise since the majority of the American people haven’t been jumping for joy every time Obama decides he’s going to dictate to others what they should do.
At one point, there was promise of hope and change. On June 4, 2008, then-candidate Barack Obama made an address to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) carefully calculated to appeal to Jewish voters concerned about his views towards Israel. “Let me be clear,” Mr. Obama said. “Israel’s security is sacrosanct. It is non-negotiable. … [A]ny agreement with the Palestinian people must preserve Israel’s identity as a Jewish state with secure, recognized, defensible borders.” In 2009, however, Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton established the 1967 lines “with agreed swaps” as one of the starting points for negotiations.
I’m getting the impression that no one in the Obama administration is acquainted with reality. The reality in the Middle East is that Israel has a very tiny strip of land in which they actually have flourished, and Obama wants to take away a large portion of that land, and give it to people who have done NOTHING to create, or promote a peaceful existence with their neighbor. Land for peace does NOT work. It hasn’t in the past, and it sure won’t in the future.
Mr. Obama also pledged in 2008 that it would be his policy that “Jerusalem will remain the capital of Israel and it must remain undivided.” This pledge was broken almost immediately upon taking office. White House demands in 2009 that Israel freeze new construction – which the administration referred to as “settlements” – in eastern sections of Jerusalem effectively affirmed Palestinian claims on the city, which they envision as their own capital.
It should have been apparent, to anyone with half a brain, that after sitting in a so called church, listening to a pastor (and mentor) rant about the evil jooooooooooooz, there was no way Obama could be pro-Israel. His entire upbringing was based on the evils of America, capitalism and Jews. But no. The sham was bought, hook, line, and sinker. While in Israel right after the election, we happened to be touring the tunnels by the Western Wall, with a small group of Jews from New York. The tour guide asked them what they thought of the new president. The response? “We LOVE him! He’s so WONDERFUL!” When the guide asked why they felt this way, they really didn’t have a coherent answer, just more of the hopey changey nonsense. The rest of us just looked at each other, embarrassed that an American, especially a Jewish American, could have been so hoodwinked.
During the campaign, Senator Obama made a LOT of promises to the American people. He did promise a ‘fundamental transformation’. He’s kept that one. America has transformed into a country I do not recognize. America has deserted her closest allies, and embraced those who would destroy her.
Obama Stands With……Terrorists?
Standing Strong with Israel
The Foundry
When Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visits President Barack Obama at the White House today for three hours of meetings, he will likely ask the President a very important question: Do you stand by the long-standing U.S. commitments to Israel’s future as a Jewish state?
