Submission: Israeli-Palestinian conflict hurts all, Bruins should model peace

In October 2015, a 13-year-old Israeli boy was riding his bike near East Jerusalem when two Palestinian boys, aged 13 and 15, stabbed him and a 25-year-old Yeshiva student with kitchen knives. The 15-year-old Palestinian was shot and killed after charging at Israeli police following the initial attack. A year later, an Israeli court sentenced the 13-year-old Palestinian to 12 years in prison, finding him guilty of two counts of attempted murder.

The purpose of my rehashing of the details is not to talk about who’s right or wrong, nor is it to encourage readers to take “sides,” or to justify anyone’s actions. I simply want to bring people’s attention to something so obvious and hidden in plain sight that we casually pass it over and have become numb to it: A 13-year-old stabbed another 13-year-old with the intent to kill. These are kids.

How mature were you when you were 13? What issues were you struggling with? What circumstances would compel 13-year-old you to pick up a kitchen knife with the intent of physically harming someone else?

In the wake of Bruins for Israel’s “What Does Peace Look Like To You? A Tribute to Yitzhak Rabin” event, there is perhaps no better time to ask ourselves the big questions: What does peace look like to us, and would we be willing to put down our guns and our posters long enough to see it become a reality?

We cannot be so blind as to be oblivious to the harsh reality that this conflict between parents has deep and harmful impacts on their children. On our children. Regardless of what “side” you’re on, we can all agree our kids are our future, and we have to be very careful how and what we teach them. Children learn whether they are in a classroom or in a living room. As students, we can attest that we learn just as much outside the classroom – if not more – as we do in it.

On our campus, we focus all too much on the fighting and not enough on the conflict’s impact on the people we believe we are fighting for. We have to humanize this conflict. Amid the fighting, it is easy to forget that the person on the other side of the table also has a family and people he/she cares about. We are not so different. This incident was a victory for nobody. Nobody wins when a 13-year-old stabs another 13-year-old with a kitchen knife.

Parents cannot afford to teach their children to hate. Leaders within the Israeli and Palestinian communities on campus cannot afford to teach their communities to hate, either.

As individuals, we get to decide what legacy we leave behind – both at UCLA via resolving the friction between student groups and setting valuable precedents for future Bruins, and in the world via providing our kids with a well-rounded education encompassing compassion, open-mindedness and skeptical optimism. The choice is ours.

On a prestigious college campus, we have the opportunity to model what nuanced education, mutual recognition and reconciliation can and should look like. Whether you’re in an Israel group, a Palestine group or anywhere in between, we must at the very least be able to agree that a world in which 13-year-olds are stabbing each other is not a legacy we want to leave behind.

  1. How do you model peace with an ideology that teaches the religious obligation of “holy war” against infidels in the 21st century? How do you model peace the ideology of Islamism that is harming mostly everyday good Muslims who are just trying to put food on the table for their families?

    People (non-combatants and civilian populations) get stabbed and physically assaulted everyday in major Cities of the US for various reasons, but it is [mostly] by low class individuals without religious or ideological motives or justifications. But how do we model peace with an ideology that is teaching and producing acts of terrorism in multiple Countries everyday in the name of Islam, dozens of terrorist organizations (operating freely in host Countries with their own websites), and 29 ongoing conflicts and borders wars involving Muslim leaders and Muslim regimes in the 21st century? And last, why do we keep this narrow focus on Israel/Palestine???????????

      1. Prior to 9-11, we were not in Yemen, Afghanistan, Libya Sudan, Iraq, and definitely not in Syria. There were no drones. Saddam, Gaddafi, and the Taliban were still in power. Saddam was sending $15,000 to the families of anyone that would martyred themselves in Israel, the Taliban was murdering and beating women in public for minor religious infractions and targeting men who shaved, Assad was repressing Syrian citizens, Saddam and Sons were conducting mass executions and attempting to decimate the Kurds, Libya was the drop off point for of Sub Saharan Africans for forced labor and sexual exploitation, 2.7 million tribal Africans dislocated in the Sudan by the Muslim Central Government, al Qaeda was picking and choosing both Eastern and Western targets, Iran was supporting Hamas, Hezbollah with weapons, etc, etc.

        1. We were bombing them before 9/11. We’ve been bombing the ME daily since 1990, Gulf War 1.

          9/11 is the big lie. It wasn’t the 9/11 attack that motivated the endless wars that followed, rather it served as a cover for the neocons to implement wars that had been planned for 20 years. You can google the documents – The Yinon Plan (1980, A Clean Break, A New Strategy for Securing the Realm (1990), PNAC Rebuilding Americas Defenses (1995), The Israel Lobby (2010, Walt and Mearsheimer)

          By repeating lies like the above over and over, ad infinitum, the US media creates an upside down reality the purpose of which is to normalize the endless US aggression in the middle east in defense of Israel.

          1. First, Kurd Net Daily Online News: 
”For years the 30 million Kurds spread across those territories have been the world’s largest ethnic group without an independent homeland. Only the Kurds in Iraq, who displaced Iraqi forces in the 1990s when a U.S. and British no-fly zone was in place against Saddam Hussein, have managed to carved out an area of real autonomy.”

            Pull up the Iraqi Liberation Act of 1998, sign by President Bill Clinton, to remove Saddam from power, and lists some of the 17 UN Security Council Resolutions which allowed Saddam to stay in power, but he was in violation of all of them. I don’t believe President Bill Clinton is a neocon.

            I voted for President Obama twice, as did most of the American voters, and he ordered the surge in Iraq and ordered the assassination of Bin Laden, and no world leader has done more for Israel than President Obama.

            And last, which media creates the upside down reality, as we have a right, left, centrist, independent, and foreign press covering everything we do, to include an unrestricted internet??

          2. @ Ellen Hanson,
            ABC News, Published Sept 2011-The list of senior terrorists, authorized to be killed under the Obama Administration (not neocons), and is fairly extensive, here are a few examples.

            There’s Osama bin Laden, of course, killed in May.

            Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP) leader Anwar al-Awlaki as of today.

            Earlier this month officials confirmed that al Qaeda’s chief of Pakistan operations, Abu Hafs al-Shahri, was killed in Waziristan, Pakistan.

            In August, ‘Atiyah ‘Abd al-Rahman, the deputy leader of al Qaeda was killed.

            In June, one of the group’s most dangerous commanders, Ilyas Kashmiri, was killed in Pakistan. In Yemen that same month, AQAP senior operatives Ammar al-Wa’ili, Abu Ali al-Harithi, and Ali Saleh Farhan were killed. In Somalia, Al-Qa’ida in East Africa (AQEA) senior leader Harun Fazul was killed.

            Administration officials also herald the recent U.S./Pakistani joint arrest of Younis al-Mauritani in Quetta.

            Going back to August 2009, Tehrik e-Taliban Pakistan leader Baitullah Mahsud was killed in Pakistan.

            In September of that month, Jemayah Islamiya operational planner Noordin Muhammad Top was killed in Indonesia, and AQEA planner Saleh Ali Saleh Nabhan was killed in Somalia.

            In December 2009 in Pakistan, al Qaeda operational commanders Saleh al-Somali and ‘Abdallah Sa’id were killed.

            In February 2010, in Pakistan, Taliban deputy and military commander Abdul Ghani Beradar was captured; Haqqani network commander Muhammad Haqqani was killed; and Lashkar-e Jhangvi leader Qari Zafar was killed.

            In March 2010, al Qaeda operative Hussein al-Yemeni was killed in Pakistan, while senior Jemayah Islamiya operative Dulmatin – accused of being the mastermind behind the 2002 Bali bombings – was killed during a raid in Indonesia.

            In April 2010, al Qaeda in Iraq leaders Abu Ayyub al-Masri was killed.

            In May, al Qaeda’s number three commander, Sheik Saeed al-Masri was killed.

            In June 2010 in Pakistan, al Qaeda commander Hamza al-Jawfi was killed.

            If you remember, President Obama took heat for authorizing and entering sovereign territories to commit assassinations, especial Awlaki, who was an American citizen, assassinated without benefit of a hearing. Were you for or against Obama ordering these targeted hits?

          3. “There’s Osama bin Laden, of course, killed in May.”

            There is no evidence for this. The story itself, i.e. flown 1000 miles and buried at sea, is preposterous, and the lack of a shred of physical evidence, even pictures, makes it very doubtful.

            “Were you for or against Obama ordering these targeted hits?”

            The idea of the US president having a kill list is immoral, illegal, unconstitutional, and almost unbelievable. It demonstrates beyond a hint of doubt the reality of ZOG.

          4. For national security or the security of the troops, the President is authorized to protect them. It is not unconstitutional to target enemy combatants and known terrorists.

          5. The Yinon plan has become reality, and it was followed up by ‘A Clean Break’, and ‘Rebuilding America’s Defenses’, written by neocons in the US govt. who enacted the plans. There is no mystery here.

            And, the internet itself is free, but most sites are very tightly controlled by Zionists, e.g. Wiki.

          6. What did I dodge?

            “And I don’t believe President Bill Clinton is a neocon” ?

            Clinton is a neocon to his last dollar ….

            Ex-President (and US draft dodger, eh) Bill Clinton told an audience in Toronto, Canada, on Tuesday that he would personally fight “in the trench” alongside the Israel Defense Forces to repel an attack on the Jewish state by Iraq.

            “I would grab a rifle and get in the trench and fight and die.”

          7. “What did I dodge?”— You dodged– Which media creates the “upside down reality”, as we have a right, left, centrist, independent, and foreign press covering everything we do, to include an unrestricted internet??

            As for President Clinton– In December 2000, the White House (Camp David peace summit) offered a final settlement proposal. The U.S. plan offered by Clinton and endorsed by Barak would have given the Palestinians 97 percent of the West Bank (either 96 percent of the West Bank and 1 percent from Israel proper or 94 percent from the West Bank and 3 percent from Israel proper), with no cantons, and full control of the Gaza Strip, with a land-link between the two; Israel would have withdrawn from 63 settlements as a result. In exchange for the three percent annexation of the West Bank, Israel would increase the size of the Gaza territory by roughly a third. Arab neighborhoods of East Jerusalem would become the capital of the new state, and refugees would have the right of return to the Palestinian state, and would receive reparations from a $30 billion international fund collected to compensate them. The Palestinians would maintain control over their holy places, and would be given desalinization plants to ensure them adequate water. The only concessions Arafat had to make was Israeli sovereignty over the parts of the Western Wall religiously significant to Jews (i.e., not the entire Temple Mount), and three early warning stations in the Jordan valley, which Israel would withdraw from after six years.  Arafat turned it down, and the violence escalated against Israel. You know the rest.

            You cannot lose every war against the Jewish State and then, with each subsequent defeat, demand to go back to the original UN Partition Resolution without any consequences. A war is not over until the last combatant is either dead or lays down his arms, followed by terms of surrender. And the tiny Jewish State should never rely on international law for their protection.

  2. I would suggest that students on US college campuses not pay so much attention to the issue. Why should it be one of the top issues at UCLA or anywhere else-other than to stir up anti-Semitism? Wouldn’t it be nice to have a campus free of pro-Palestinian agitation all the time?

      1. You mean the military directed by President O’bomb’ah?

        “I will stand with the Muslims should the political winds shift in an ugly direction.”
        Muslim Hawaiian Hussein

      2. That is in the fight with ISIS, and obviously it is not enough as ISIS continues to kill men, women, and children in the most gruesome manner, in the name of Islam. What is the Organization of Islamic Cooperation, the League of Arab Nations, Iran, and Turkey doing about ISIS? Please be specific!

        1. Peep, the US has been bombing the ME at a rate of 25,000 bombs per year for at least 15 years, and was bombing Iraq for 10 years before that. For example, 10 years ago, 12/5/2006, the US flew ….. combat sorties in the ME. Let’s look it up …

          http://www.airforcemag.com/DRArchive/Pages/default.aspx?Date=12/05/2006

          198. At 1 bomb per plane that’s 200 bombs per day, 300*200 = 60000 bombs/year.

          Note: I had to go back 10 years because the Air Force Magazine removed the daily strike stats a little after Obama became pres.

          Thank the Zionists.

          1. I don’t trust anyone on the stats, but if the military was dropping that many bombs accurately, we would not have to rely on you for the statistics. And certainly you cannot blame zionists for all the conflicts involving Muslim regimes. Islamists are at odds with just about everybody today- pitting Muslim Sunnis against Shiites in Pakistan, the Shiite/Sunni divide in Bahrain, Iraq, and Yemen, Muslims against Hindus in India, Muslims against Christians in Nigeria, Muslims against Buddhists in Southern Thailand, Muslims against Copts in Egypt, Muslims against Jews in Israel, Muslims against Christians in the Philippines, Aceh (Indonesia), Kosovo (Serbia), Muslims against Maronites in Lebanon, Muslims against Hindus in Bangladesh, Muslims against Russian Orthodox, Muslims against Greek Cypriots, Muslims against non-Arab minorities and Dinkas in the Sudan, Muslims against Zoroastrians and Bahai in Iran and Egypt, the Muslim/Buddhist divide in Myanmar, Muslim sectarian conflict in Syria, Bahrain, Yemen, Mali, the Central African Republic, etc……

        1. You fool. You say “the idf boasts of shooting children and women” while your evidence proves just the opposite.
          1) “They were not made or sanctioned by the military.”
          2) “Army says shirts depicting violent scenes against Palestinians are out of line with IDF values and should be condemned.”
          3) “the statement said disciplinary action would be taken against troops wearing the T-shirts.”
          4) the child on the t shirt is holding a gun and the women is throwing a Molotov cocktail. That is more of an indictment of the Palestinians that even children and pregnant women behave as though they are combatants.

          And none of that corroborates hedges’ claim that soldiers would entice children into traps to murder them for sport.

          It’s also worth noting that your “evidence” comes from an Israeli publication. Try finding a Palestinian publication that is critical of it’s own army and government.

          1. Fact, you are a complete idiot, but I’m happy that you’re playing ….

            OK …. “the idf boasts of shooting children and women” … not the IDF brass in official publications, you idiot ! … but the IDF soldiers, who are the ones wearing the t- shirts.

            And while we’re at it, here are a couple of pictures showing Israli citizens making a picnic while watching the phosphorous bombs dropping on the defenseless Palestinians in gaza …

            There has never been anything remotely comparable in the civilized world.

          2. With global jihadists still active in the UK, EU, Oz and America’s heartland and Iran pursuing nuclear WMDs, Westerners must resurrect prudent Greatest Generation pacification strategies against Islamo-fascism. Next steps should require loyalty oaths from Muslim immigrants, outlaw the Koran (Mo’s Mein Kampf) and require Muslims individually denounce “sharia” and “jihad” or face internment or expulsion… then invoke the Truman doctrine and glass their ancient evil Ka’aba.

            Shinto-fascist beheaders were only pacified the hard way by The Greatest Generation. Give 72 hours notice to evacuate, then glass the Ka’aba. Mecca would make a fine proving ground for kinetic bombardment (rods from god) and excellent negotiating leverage against Tehran’s belligerence.

            No more Hajj. No more Ring of Tawaf. No more Islam. Checkmate.

          3. “require Muslims individually denounce “sharia” and “jihad” or face internment or expulsion”

            I assume that you are aware that the Jews are awaiting a messiah, or, mashiach, who will conquer the world and establish a one world government in Jerusalem. And they’re not joking.

            “Belief in the eventual coming of the mashiach is a basic and fundamental part of traditional Judaism. The mashiach will be a great political leader descended from King David (Jeremiah 23:5). He will be a charismatic leader, inspiring others to follow his example. He will be a great military leader, who will win battles for Israel. The mashiach will bring about the political and spiritual redemption of the Jewish people by bringing us back to Israel and restoring Jerusalem. He will establish a government in Israel that will be the center of all world government, both for Jews and gentiles. He will rebuild the Temple and re-establish its worship. He will restore the religious court system of Israel and establish Jewish law as the law of the land. The world after the messiah comes is often referred to in Jewish literature as Olam Ha-Ba (oh-LAHM hah-BAH), the World to Come. In the Olam Ha-Ba, the whole world will recognize the Jewish G-d as the only true G-d, and the Jewish religion as the only true religion.”

            http://www.jewfaq.org/mashiach.htm

            For more on the mashiach and the planned one world govt., see

            http://www.antisemitism101.com

          4. Stop the BS! Ancient text is ancient text, but [today] as we speak, every Country in the Middle East, with the exception of Israel, are signatories to the Cairo Declaration of Human Rights:

            Article 19 states: “There shall be NO crime or punishment EXCEPT as provided for in the Sharia.”

            Article 24 of the declaration states: “All the rights and freedoms stipulated in this Declaration are subject to the Islamic Sharia.”

            ARTICLE 25: “The Islamic Sharia is the ONLY source of reference for the explanation or clarification of ANY of the articles of this Declaration.”

          5. There are 57 declared Muslim States at the United Nations, all members of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation. It is the largest voting bloc at the UN General Assembly. The tiny Israel get one vote.

            On the other hand, I do not read Arabic, but the English translations that I have read is- Sura 5:21) that God granted the Land of Israel to the Children of Israel and ordered them to settle there. In addition, it is predicted that before the end of days, God will bring the Children of Israel to retake possession of the Land, gathering them from the different countries and nations (Sura 17:104).

          6. Saying “the idf boasts…” implies that it is the official stance of the idf to boast. Now you’re saying it’s not the idf, but it’s some soldiers in the idf. And your evidence is a t shirt that was made. Israelis in the army make t-shirts for every event. That means out of the hundreds of thousands of shirts that soldiers have made, you’ve picked one that was made by someone with a sick sense of humour. And it’s unclear whether any soldiers even ended up wearing it, since there were repercussions.

            On the other hand, we can say that the official Hamas stance is to glorify the killing of innocent Israelis.

            And once again you’ve hand selected an image that fits your disgusting perspective. A dozen Israelis watching a military offensive. First of all (1) no illegal phosphorous was used, that’s another lie. (2) Israel goes out of its way to prevent civilian casualties. Making phone calls, dropping leaflets, using empty shells (3) Hamas purposefully stores it’s weapons in heavily populated areas and fires rockets from these areas. They convince people to stay when Israel warns them to leave to maximize casualties. (4) Hamas has initiated all wars, so they are ultimately responsible for all deaths.

            But again this is not to justify those dozen Israeli’s behavior. You can find crude people in any population. But you’re ignoring the thousands of Israelis that marched for peace and to end the offensive. Can you find thousands of Palestinians marching for the acceptance of Israel and an end to hostilities?

            You point to singular cases of insignificant Israelis behaving crudely. Here are a few recent cases of Palestinian officials from the supposedly moderate camp glorifying martyrdom and the killing of civilians.

          7. “Hamas has initiated all wars, so they are ultimately responsible for all deaths. ”

            How freaking idiotic can you get. But, nevermind that. Let’s look at the creation of the state of Israel. It was created by the UN to give the Jews a homeland where they could escape the antisemitism and persecution in Europe that resulted in the holocaust.

            But, it is now illegal in most countries in Europe, as well as in Russia, to question the ‘facts’ of the holocaust. But how can we know that they are facts if they cannot be questioned? It is the only historical event it is illegal to question and doing so will result in serious jail time. Just recently an 85 y.o. German woman, Ursula Haverbeck, was sentenced to 2.5 years in jail for doing just that.

            http://www.jta.org/2016/11/23/news-opinion/world/german-holocaust-denier-ursula-haverbeck-88-again-sentenced-to-prison

            Here is the fact – either the Nazis were the most monstrous killers the world has ever seen, or the Zionists are the most degenerate liars the world has ever seen. Let’s debate the topic – you can pick the side of the argument you favor and go first – I’ll play the devil’s advocate.

          8. Not gonna play your game. The holocaust is the most well documented mass atrocity in human history and the veracity of the facts have been proven time and time again – even upheld in court – and yet still susceptible and bigoted fools, such as yourself, call it into question. The holocaust occurred because lies were spread that demonized Jews, and denial of the holocaust is such a lie that governments reasonably curtail in order to prevent the spread of Jew hatred. I personally agree that it should not be illegal, and that the fools doing the denying should be allowed to loudly present themselves as the fools they are.

            Israel was not only established because of the holocaust. It was established because Jews desired to return to their homeland after two thousand years of not being able to fully express themselves and control their own destiny, and existing by the whim of a host nation. Anti semitism did not only occur in Europe in recent history, it occurred pretty much everywhere Jews have lived, besides India. Jews returned en masse and were promised a state of their own decades before the holocaust.

          9. “Not gonna play your game.”

            It’s not a game.

            “The holocaust is the most well documented mass atrocity in human history .. ”

            There are no documents, there is no physical evidence, no bodies*, no gas chambers. Only ‘testimony’. Let’s take an example, the Nazis were meticulous record keepers, and a death certificate was written for every prisoner that died at Auschwitz. The deaths were summarized in books now known as death books. The Soviets captured these records. They hid them for 50 years, and finally revealed them following glasnost. You can now buy them on Amazon. Here is what they look like

            http://www.alcuinbooks.com/pictures/medium/016891.jpg

            Read about them here … http://auschwitz.org/en/museum/news/which-religious-denominations-did-the-people-deported-to-auschwitz-belong-to,109.html

            Some records were lost by the Soviets, extrapolating the # that died at Auschwitz is on the order of 100,000, more Roman Catholics than Jews, see the link above.

            The US/Brits captured the records for the camps in Germany. These records, 30,000,000 documents, are stored in Bad Arolsen Germany, and while there have been recent reports that they have been made available, they are only available in Germany where it is illegal to question the holocaust.

            http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/04/03/german-holocaust-archive-bad-arolsen_n_3005313.html

            * no bodies – you have seen photos and film footage of concentration camp prisoners being thrown into mass graves. These were taken from footage shot by the US and Brits as they liberated camps in Germany. The Brits made a documentary, directed by Hitchcock no less, and shelved it for 70 years. You can now see it here ..

            http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/frontline/film/memory-of-the-camps/

            Watch it and you will discover that the prisoners died at the end of the war due to typhus, all fully documented in the film.

          10. There must be a good word for someone like yourself, with the millions of documents released by the German government, the thousands of consistent testimonies of Camp survivors, bank records, properties confiscated, ovens working 24 hours a day, mountains of gold teeth pulled from victims, letters from those who escaped, Nazii films in which they proudly displayed their handiwork, and even the work of Hitler’s final solution and the superior race doctrine.

            Your words: “Watch it and you will discover that the prisoners died at the end of the war due to typhus” — Those who died in concentration camps and forced labor camps from typhus, were no less murdered by the Nazis than those shot in the head. As a matter of fact, being shot in the head was far more merciful and humane.

            Nuremberg Trial, Chief British prosecutor Sir Hartley Shawcross declared in his final address to the Tribunal: “There is one group to which the method of annihilation was applied on a scale so immense that it is my duty to refer separately to the evidence. I mean the extermination of the Jews. If there were no other crime against these men [the defendants], this one alone, in which all of them were implicated, would suffice. History holds no parallel to these horrors.”

          11. “There must be a good word for someone like yourself,”

            The word you’re looking for is holocaust denier.

            “with the millions of documents released by the German government, ”

            This is complete idiocy.

            “Those who died in concentration camps and forced labor camps from typhus, were no less murdered ”

            More idiocy.

            “I mean the extermination of the Jews.”

            No bodies. No murder weapons, i.e. gas chambers. Only lies, as documented in the short vids Questioning the Holocaust and Introduction to the Holohoax on YouTube.

          12. Holocaust Survivors and Victims Database, as well as the German Government which claims fifty million documents on the fate of seventeen million people from forced labor camps and concentration camps, of which six million were Jews.

          13. I believe you are a little deficient. It is not IDF policy to shoot children. If there are some bad characters in the defense force, because of a free press, they have been exposed. However, [it is] the policy of far right Islamists to target infidels or any offenders of Islam, “specifically” non-combatants and civilians populations for the purpose of promoting terror among them.

            Airports around the world have been on higher alert for decades, and [it is not] because they are afraid of an angry Jewish Holy Warrior getting on the plane. An then, the first World Trade Center bomb maker in 1993 was an Iraqi Muslim, Abdul Rahman Yasin. The London bombings were Pakistani Islamists, the Madrid bombings were Moroccan Islamists, the Bali bombing were Jemaah Islamiyah, the US Embassy bombings in East Africa were linked to local members of the Egyptian Islamic Jihad, and the bomb maker was an African member of Al Qaeda, Fazul Abdullah Mohammed. The second World Trade Center bombing was planned by Khaled Sheikh Mohammed, the one that planned and flew the plane into the second World Trade Center attack was Mohammed Atta. In the London bombings it was Mohammed Sidique Khan. In Afghanistan, all Buddhas were ordered destroyed by religious edict in March 2001 by the Taliban, on orders from leader Mullah Mohammed Omar. The more recent Kenya attacks have been by Somali Islamists. And India the most targeted non-Muslim Country for Islamic terrorism. — Is any of this in antisemitism 101 ??

    1. When Muslims return occupied Constantinople and the sacred Hagia Sophia (Christendom’s 2nd most holy cathedral)— then victimhood cultists can howl about the alleged “rights” of Muslim invaders to other lands (from the Philippines to Morocco) from which apartheid Islamo-supremacists extirpated native populations through genocide.

      Those interested in exploring the history of apartheid Islamo-supremacism in a more scholarly manner may read, “The Legacy of Jihad: Islamic Holy War And The Fate Of Non-Muslims”

      The Buddha called— he’d like his Bamiyan monuments back.

      1. The plan of the Orthodox Jews is to ultimately establish a one world govt., the Jews will have to comply with 357 laws, but the non-Jews will only have to comply with the 7 Noahide laws …

        Just for fun let’s google – noahide laws the fate of non-Jews

        https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_Laws_of_Noah

        “The rabbis agree that the seven laws were given to the sons of Noah
        ….
        Children of Noah refers to all of humankind.[15]

        The sons of Noah are to be executed by decapitation for most crimes,[23]”

        1. The plan of orthodox Jews is to wait until the Messiah comes and mystically re-establishes a monarchy in Israel. There is no impulse to “establish it” of their own accord, which is why many are anti-zionists. And there is definitely no plan to have a “one world govt.”

          But no use in telling you that, since you’re a raving anti-semitic holocaust-denying conspiratorialist. But let me guess… “anti-semitism is just invented by the jews to shut their critics up…”

          1. “And there is definitely no plan to have a “one world govt.””

            I gave the 100% kosher reference, I’ll give it again,

            http://www.jewfaq.org/mashiach.htm

            “He (the mashiach, eh) will establish a government in Israel that will be the center of all world government, both for Jews and gentiles.”

            Beyond that, it is common knowledge.

          2. About the site “This site is created, written and maintained by Tracey Rich. I do not claim to be a rabbi or an expert on Judaism; … All of the material on this site was created by me, just one individual.”

            See your problem is that when there is a consensus on a topic you don’t believe anyone (like the holocaust) but when one random person on the internet says something that fits your narrative, you take it as fact. It’s not surprising that nearly everything you post comes from an “anti-Semitism 101” site.

            What is the basis for that guy saying there would be a one world govt? Did you do that research? Or is it enough that he said it and it’s what you want to hear? Are there any surveys of orthodox Jews to take a representative sample, or is one YouTube video enough to prove what they all do?

          3. “What is the basis for that guy saying there would be a one world govt?”

            It is common knowledge.

    2. Yes, that’s the article where Chris Hedges “reported” that the Israeli’s were using a rifle and silencer not in their armaments. Chris Hedges outright made up that story, he is a raging anti-Semite, to repeat that lie puts you in the same class as Goebbels.

      1. Complete idiocy as expected from the hasbara. The ‘raging anti-semite’ Hedges worked and reported for the Zionist owned New York Times, and now writes for the Zionist owned Truthdig.

  3. Russians crush Chechens. Chinese trample Uighurs. Real genocides unfold regularly in Africa. Iran pursues a nuclear bomb. Hamas is openly dedicated to the destruction of Israel. So is Iran. Nobody cares.

    And yet the only villain as far as today’s Quislings are concerned is Israel. Always Israel.

    But none of these facts matter. Indeed, it’s tiring even to recount them in an environment where big lies matter more than obvious truths, where self-defense is “bigotry,” where restraint is “intolerance,” and where the heirs of Gandhi fling molotovs (both real and rhetorical) in support of Hamas.
