Haneyya: Efforts underway to bridle Israeli escalation

[P F Tinmore]

GAZA, (PIC)-- Gaza premier Ismail Haneyya has said that his government was exerting big efforts to avert further escalation in the Israeli occupation forces’ aggression on the Gaza Strip.

Haneyya, who was attending a celebration to lay down foundation stone of a hospital for the elderly people in Gaza, also congratulated Sheikh Raed Salah, the leader of the Islamic movement in 1948 occupied Palestine, for the court ruling that rejected the British government’s deportation decision.

He said that the court verdict, which ruled against his deportation, constituted a victory over the Zionist lobby in Britain and over attempts to smear his reputation and curb his diplomatic moves.

Yasser Arafat, the founder of the Palestinian movement, was born, raised and educated in Egypt. It was he that decided to call the Arabs "Palestinians" in of 1964. Yasser was a prodigy of his uncle the Mufti of Jerusalem, leader of the Muslim Nazi brigade and certified as a Nazi by the US state dept and responsible for the indirect deaths of approximately half a million Jews, by asking Hitler to kill them instead of allowing them to leave.

Hamas holds on to power in Gaza at the point of a gun, not by the power of law. The law requires elections be held every three years, and by consistently blocking elections since it term in office ran out in 2009, Hamas has effected a coup, overthrowing the Palestinian Arab Constitution, betraying the Palestinian Arab people, perverting the democratic system that brought it into power and if Hamas' illegal occupation of Gaza is not stopped, forever dividing the Palestinian Arab people into two distinct and separate peoples, both too impotent to make any political gains for the Palestinian Arab people.

Hamas' illegal occupation of Gaza is the principal obstacle the Palestinian Arabs face in trying to establish a Palestinian Arab state.

BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) -- Senior Hamas official Khalil al-Hayya said Monday that his party refuses to hold elections until they can operate freely in the West Bank.

Responding to a question from a Ma'an reporter on why the Gaza government has not permitted the Central Elections Commission to update the electoral register, al-Hayya said elections will not happen without more freedom for Hamas members in the West Bank.

As part of a May 2011 reconciliation deal between his party and Hamas, the sides signed up to resolving curbs on political freedom, a new transitional government and fresh elections within a year. The deal has repeatedly stalled as the parties continue to argue over its key tenets.

The Central Elections Commission reopened its office in Gaza in January, but says it has been prevented from working in the field, and must update the electoral register in advance of any poll.

Abbas must form a government immediately or resign from the prime ministerial post, al-Hayya told Ma'an. Abbas insists he is waiting for the go ahead by Hamas while it resolves internal dissent within its ranks.

Jews have occupied Israel for 3000 years.

PBS: Civilization and the Jews

The interaction of Jewish history and Western civilization successively assumed different forms. In the Biblical and Ancient periods, Israel was an integral part of the Near Eastern and classical world, which gave birth to Western civilization. It shared the traditions of ancient Mesopotamia and the rest of that world with regard to it’s own beginning; it benefited from the decline of Egypt and the other great Near Eastern empires to emerge as a nation in it’s own right; it asserted it’s claim to the divinely promised Land of Israel...

Harvard Semitic Museum: The Houses of Ancient Israel The Houses of Ancient Israel § Semitic Museum

In archaeological terms The Houses of Ancient Israel: Domestic, Royal, Divine focuses on the Iron Age (1200-586 B.C.E.). Iron I (1200-1000 B.C.E.) represents the premonarchical period. Iron II (1000-586 B.C.E.) was the time of kings. Uniting the tribal coalitions of Israel and Judah in the tenth century B.C.E., David and Solomon ruled over an expanding realm. After Solomon's death (c. 930 B.C.E.) Israel and Judah separated into two kingdoms.


Israel was led at times by strong kings, Omri and Ahab in the ninth century B.C.E. and Jereboam II in the eighth.

Harvard University Semitic Museum: Jerusalem During The Reign Of King Hezekiah--New Exhibition At The Semitic Museum Re-Creates Numerous Aspects Of Ancient Israel Harvard Gazette: Jerusalem during the reign of King Hezekiah

The Semitic Museum has installed a new exhibition that brings the world of biblical Israel into vivid, three-dimensional reality. "The Houses of Ancient Israel: Domestic, Royal, Divine" immerses the viewer in Israelite daily life around the time of King Hezekiah (8th century B.C.), creating an experiential environment based on the latest archaeological, textual, and historical research.

The centerpiece of the exhibition is a full-scale Israelite house, open on one side, filled with authentic ancient artifacts that show how life was lived by common inhabitants of ancient Jerusalem. Agricultural tools, a cooking area, and a stall occupied by a single, scruffy ram fill the ground floor of the cube-shaped, mud-brick structure, which, thankfully, is not olfactorily authentic. The upper story, reached by a ladder, is devoted to eating and sleeping.

An Arab-Made Misery - WSJ.com

International donors pledged almost $4.5 billion in aid for Gaza earlier this month. It has been very painful for me to witness over the past few years the deteriorating humanitarian situation in that narrow strip where I lived as a child in the 1950s.

It is Hamas, an Islamist terror organization supported by Iran, which is using and abusing Palestinians... While Hamas leaders hid in the well-stocked bunkers and tunnels they prepared before they provoked Israel into attacking them, Palestinian civilians were exposed and caught in the deadly crossfire between Hamas and Israeli soldiers.

Both Israel and Egypt are fearful of terrorist infiltration from Gaza -- all the more so since Hamas took over -- and have always maintained tight controls over their borders with Gaza. The Palestinians continue to endure hardships because Gaza continues to serve as the launching pad for terror attacks against Israeli citizens. Those attacks come in the form of Hamas missiles that indiscriminately target Israeli kindergartens, homes and businesses.

And Hamas continued these attacks more than two years after Israel withdrew from Gaza in the hope that this step would begin the process of building a Palestinian state, eventually leading to a peaceful, two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. There was no "cycle of violence" then, no justification for anything other than peace and prosperity. But instead, Hamas chose Islamic jihad. Gazans' and Israelis' hopes have been met with misery for Palestinians and missiles for Israelis.

Hamas, an Iran proxy, has become a danger not only to Israel, but also to Palestinians as well as to neighboring Arab states, who fear the spread of radical Islam could destabilize their countries.

Arabs claim they love the Palestinian people, but they seem more interested in sacrificing them. If they really loved their Palestinian brethren, they'd pressure Hamas to stop firing missiles at Israel. In the longer term, the Arab world must end the Palestinians' refugee status and thereby their desire to harm Israel. It's time for the 22 Arab countries to open their borders and absorb the Palestinians of Gaza who wish to start a new life. It is time for the Arab world to truly help the Palestinians, not use them.

Hamas And The Islamization Of Gaza: Mkhaimer Abusada, Professor Of Political Science, Al-Azhar University in Gaza.

The Gaza Strip was known as a very traditional and conservative society long before Hamas seized control of it in June 2007. The densely populated Strip is primarily inhabited by Palestinian refugees who have long suffered from poverty and negligence. But since Hamas took over the Gaza Strip, it has intensified its efforts and activities to Islamize the social life of local Palestinians. Islamization of the Gaza Strip refers to the efforts and process to impose Islamic laws and tradition by force.
The process of Islamization is being imposed by the Hamas government and its security apparatuses as well as volunteer dawa groups who go from door to door asking people to adhere to Islamic laws and hijab conservative dress. Beyond its imposition of Islamic social codes on daily life, Hamas controls the social, educational and religious systems that indoctrinate the residents with Islamic values that have a long-term effect on the nature of Gazan society.

The formal educational system in Gaza (with the exception of UNRWA schools) is completely controlled by Hamas. This was facilitated by the general teachers strike at the beginning of the 2008-2009 school year. Hamas was able to replace them with its own ideologue teachers. The educational system is undergoing a process of Islamization – in August 2009, the beginning of the school year, Hamas’ Education Ministry imposed the hijab on school girls and transferred male teachers to boys schools.

The Islamization process is also facilitated by the tendencies of local residents, both male and female, to adjust themselves and conform with Hamas’ Islamic values. One of the most visible signs is the increasing number of bearded men, and women wearing hijab and veil in the streets of Gaza. Some of them grow beards for religious reasons, but women simply do not want to be harassed by Hamas “morality police” and dawa groups. These dawa groups are a civilian network of Hamas volunteers who belong to Islamic charitable societies, and deal with cultural, educational and religious matters.

The Hamas government stepped up the social Islamization process of Gaza in 2010. According to a statement released by the Palestinian Independent Commission for Human Rights in mid-September, these efforts included the repression of civil society and severe violations of personal freedom. For example, Hamas banned the smoking of nargilas (water pipes) by women in public places. Smoking and partying in a public place was the reason Hamas police closed the Beach Hotel in Gaza for three days in mid-September, as well as many other tourist places.

Crazy Water Park, one of the Gaza Strip’s most popular entertainment sites, was closed down in mid-September by Hamas police for allowing mixed swimming. Two weeks later, the site was set on fire by a group of unknown gunmen. The Hamas government issued a strong condemnation and promised to pursue the perpetrators. Although it is not clear which Islamist group was behind it, Islamist militants allegedly supported by Hamas who objected to mixed-gender socializing, are to be blamed.

A troubling development this last summer was the expanded role of Hamas’ “morality police.” The Hamas black-uniformed police began to patrol the beaches of Gaza to ensure that men and women are dressed “appropriately” and that unrelated men and women are not mingling. The morality police are monitoring public places, streets and mixed universities for any suspicious and immoral behavior.

Hamas’ strategy is to Islamize the Gaza Strip step by step to avoid provoking neighboring Arab countries and the international community. Hamas has always denied accusations of turning Gaza into an Islamic emirate, but in a very recent interview with Reuters, top Hamas leader Mahmoud al-Zahar asked: “Is it a crime to Islamize the people? I am a Muslim living here according to our tradition. Why should I live under [Western] tradition?” Zahar defended Hamas laws and efforts, but declined to say how far it would go with Islamization.

Bullshit. Hamas has no respect for the constitution. The constitution requires that the election be called for by the President, but as along as Hamas refuses to recognize Abbas as the president, no elections can be called for. Meshal agreed to a Qatari brokered compromise with the PA for an interim government with Abbas as President, but the Hamas occupation forces in Gaza rejected the compromise in order to make elections impossible.

Hamas is strangling the life out of Palestinian Arab nationalist aspirations with its desperate and dishonest efforts to hang on to power.
