The End of the Netanyahu doctrine?

Are you afraid to say?

“afraid” is not the right word

I am openly Christian but what difference does it make either way?

Netanyahu And Qatar Would Share Responsibility For An Imminent Regional War

For over a decade, Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu collaborated with the emirate of evil, Qatar, in pushing $1.5 billion dollars to Hamas in Gaza – enabling it to build an army 30,000 strong and its massive missile arsenal, and equip itself with a variety of other weapons and...

DAYAN IN 1976: ISRAEL TOOK GOLAN OUT OF GREED

Thirty years after Israel conquered the Golan Heights from Syria, in what Israelis have said was an entirely defensive operation, the defense minister at the time, Moshe Dayan, has been quoted as s…

If You're Afraid to Rock the Boat, It Will Sink

After being betrayed by Eisenhower in the 1956 war, Dayan was afraid of what the American rulers would think about "overreaching" into the Golan Heights. He knew that LBJ was so angry at the Jews for such a lopsided victory that he had ordered the American Navy to send intelligence about Israeli troop movements to Syria from the USS Liberty. The emotional and resentful LBJ was also jealous and humiliated because his own war in Vietnam was going nowhere.

I read about the Six-Day War while I was in Vietnam. The Jews had done exactly what we had been told we would do in Vietnam: a quick and overwhelming victory. It was obvious by then that what was supposed to be a cakewalk was a barrel of crumbs. With a lot of showy frosting.

Eisenhower didn't betray the Jews. They had a false flag operation to bomb Americans in Cairo and blame it on the Arabs to stop US financing the construction of the Aswan Dam.

That lead to the Suez Crisis. They succeeded, but were exposed eventually and then lied about it. The damned Israelis have betrayed every president since Truman.

I think this author — a well known & experienced Israeli “pro-peace” journalist — is too hopeful that there will be any substantial changes in “the Netanyahu Doctrine” or move back toward a “two-state” solution for Israel / Palestine. But he does explain why Netanyahu and the hard Zionist right has over a long period accepted and actually encouraged Hamas rule in the Gaza Strip:


Did [Netanyahu’s] plan to preserve Hamas in Gaza as a tool for keeping the strip separate from the West Bank and the Palestinian Authority weak finally backfire?

This murderous and inhumane attack by Hamas arrived just as it seemed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was about to complete his masterpiece: peace with the Arab world while completely ignoring the Palestinians. This attack has reminded Israelis and the world, for better or for worse, that the Palestinians are still here, and that the century-old conflict here involves them, not the Emiratis or the Saudis….

Since he was first elected prime minister in 1996, Netanyahu has tried to avoid any negotiations with the Palestinian leadership, instead choosing to bypass it and push it aside. Israel does not need peace with the Palestinians to prosper, Netanyahu repeatedly claimed; its military, economic, and political strength is sufficient without it. The fact that during the years of his rule, especially between 2009 and 2019, Israel experienced economic prosperity and its international status improved, was, in his eyes, proof that he is following the right path.

The Abraham Accords signed with Bahrain and the United Arab Emirates, and later also Sudan and Morocco, reinforced this belief conclusively. “For the past 25 years, we have been told repeatedly that peace with other Arab countries will only come after we resolve the conflict with the Palestinians,” Netanyahu wrote in an article in Haaretz before the last election. “Contrary to the prevailing position,” he continued, “I believe that the road to peace does not go through Ramallah, but bypasses it: instead of the Palestinian tail wagging the Arab world, I argued that peace should begin with Arab countries, which would isolate Palestinian obstinacy.” A peace agreement with Saudi Arabia was supposed to be the icing on the “peace for peace” cake that Netanyahu has spent years preparing.

Netanyahu did not invent the policy of separation between Gaza and the West Bank, nor the use of Hamas as a tool to weaken the Palestine Liberation Organization and its national ambitions to establish a Palestinian state. Then-Prime Minister Ariel Sharon’s 2005 “disengagement” plan from Gaza was built on this logic. “This whole package called the Palestinian state has fallen off the agenda for an indefinite period of time,” said Dov Weissglas, Sharon’s advisor, explaining the political goal of disengagement at the time. “The plan provides the amount of formaldehyde required so that there will be no political process with the Palestinians.”

Netanyahu not only adopted this way of thinking, he also added to it the preservation of Hamas rule in Gaza as a tool for strengthening the separation between the strip and the West Bank. In 2018, for example, he agreed that Qatar would transfer millions of dollars a year to finance the Hamas government in Gaza, embodying the comments made in 2015 by Bezalel Smotrich (then a marginal Knesset member, and today the finance minister and de facto West Bank overlord) that “the Palestinian Authority is a burden and Hamas is an asset.”

“Netanyahu wants Hamas on its feet and is ready to pay an almost unimaginable price for it: half the country paralyzed, children and parents traumatized, houses bombed, people killed,” Israel’s current information minister, Galit Distel Atbaryan, wrote in May 2019, when she was yet to enter politics but was known as a prominent Netanyahu supporter….

“The question is, why?” Distel Atbaryan continued, before explaining: “If Hamas collapses, Abu Mazen [Mahmoud Abbas] may control the strip. If he controls it, there will be voices from the left that will encourage negotiations and a political solution and a Palestinian state, also in Judea and Samaria [the West Bank] … This is the real reason why Netanyahu does not eliminate the Hamas leader, everything else is bullshit.”

Indeed, Netanyahu himself had effectively admitted as much a couple of months before Distel Atbaryan made her comments, when he declared in a Likud meeting that “anyone who wants to thwart the establishment of a Palestinian state needs to support strengthening Hamas. This is part of our strategy, to isolate Palestinians in Gaza from Palestinians in Judea and Samaria.” …

The end of the Netanyahu doctrine

Hitler's Mufti

Recent work by historians and apologists has revealed that an influential, international religious leader was also an ardent supporter of Adolf Hitler. His name was not Pope Pius XII but Hajj Amin al-Husseini.

Efforts by Zionist militias to recruit Nazi Germany in the fight against the British Mandate authorities in Palestine have been revealed in newly-released transcripts in the Israel State Archive.

The documents, which were released to the public last month, include information on what Haaretz has called the “dark chapter” of Zionist militias’ ties with Nazi Germany. Reporting on the revelations, the Israeli newspaper uncovered shocking details which not only debunk the Zionist propaganda that Palestinians had cooperated with Nazi Germany, but also confirm that some of the founders of Israel believed that it was essential for Zionists to do so.

Snip

Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin Al-Husseini, with senior officers of the Third Reich has been a stock-in-trade of Israel’s propaganda dehumanising of Palestinians and their cause.

It’s one of the countless bad-faith uses of history that is routine in the demonisation of Palestinians and intended to cast doubt on the motives behind their resistance to Israel’s illegal occupation. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has been guilty of this more than most; in a remarkable re-writing of history the Likud leader said that it was Al-Husseini who suggested the genocide of the Jews to Adolf Hitler.

“Hitler didn’t want to exterminate the Jews at the time, he wanted to expel the Jews. And Haj Amin Al-Husseini went to Hitler and said: ‘If you expel them, they’ll all come here [to Palestine]’,” Netanyahu told the World Zionist Congress in 2015.

According to Netanyahu’s version of history, Hitler then asked: “What should I do with them?” and the mufti replied: “Burn them.” In the storm sparked by the comments, Netanyahu was denounced as having absolved Hitler of the crime of murdering six million Jews.

And? Another irrelevant post as a pathetic attempt to divert from the truth.

You just proved nothing. Arabs were allies of the Nazis, and the genocidal Mufti was on Hitler‘s payroll.

What are you trying to say, numbskull? That the Mufti wasn’t responsible for the Final Solution and just one of Hitler’s minions? You realize how stupid and desperate you sound?

You blindly support the Mufti and pretend that Hamas is any different? Hamas, ISIS AND Al Queda are the IslamoNazi offspring of the seed the Nazi Mufti planted, you moron.

 

[Tom Paine 1949]

The fact that some small ultra-Zionist groups were themselves terrorists against the British Mandate authorities, or engaged in terror attacks against Palestinian Arab villages during the 1948 Arab-Israeli War, or earlier even occasionally tried to model themselves after typical ultra-nationalist European “fascist” groups … should not be surprising.

It does not mean Zionism as a whole was or is “fascist.” Many oppressed national groups under British or Western colonial control during their independence struggles in the WWII period sought alliances where they could find them, even with Axis powers. In India, Indonesia, in Palestine and the Middle East, this was almost “natural.” Not so much for Zionists, of course, since Jews were generally more cosmopolitan, had more experience and human capital in the developed West, and eventually felt the full force of Nazi extermination programs.

In the Ukraine we saw prominent anti-Stalinist and anti-Polish independence groups like the one led by Stepan Bandera also try (mostly unsuccessfully) to ally with German fascism. But Hitler was not interested and considered Ukrainians just another inferior racial group to be sacrificed, oppressed or exterminated.

The desperation of WWII Zionists, Jewish socialist groups (mostly originally anti-Zionist) and Jewish democrats and even non-political religious folks, inevitably led them to join with the surviving Jewish population worldwide to embrace a fierce “Never Again” nationalism supporting the new Israeli state. Unfortunately, their movement had already tragically run up against growing Arab nationalist movements in the region.

Eventually a separate Palestinian nationalism arose, which itself in part embraced terrorist acts as necessary for “national liberation,” and in Hamas later took on a Sunni Muslim religious identity. But Palestinian nationalism in all its forms, even with wider Arab support, was no match for the new Jewish Israeli nationalism called Zionism, and Palestinian terrorism ultimately isolated itself from most of Israel’s neighboring Arab states. Of course the ongoing tragedy of the disbursed and mostly defeated Palestinian people has not been forgotten by millions of Arabs, and support for “Palestine Free from the River to the Sea” is used as a convenient popular rallying cry … including of course by really vicious and unpopular regimes like Iran’s “Islamic Republic” … that calls for destroying Israel entirely.
