Why Does The Right Love Israel?

Vanishing the Palestinians

by GHADA KARMI

When the Zionists decided in 1897 to establish a Jewish state in Palestine, the Jews of Vienna despatched a delegation to examine the country for its suitability. The delegation reported back as follows: "the bride is beautiful but she is married to another man". They had found that Palestine to their dismay was already inhabited by another people. And this has been Zionism’s central problem ever since. How to "vanish the Palestinians" and get an empty land? The latest manifestation of this imperative is the barrier wall, which Israel is currently building to separate and enclose Palestinian towns and villages in the lands it occupied after 1967. There are those who rightly point to the wall’s illegality and infringement of human rights. And the International Court of Justice has just affirmed this view resoundingly in its ruling, passed on 9.7.04 by 14 of the 15 judges, that the wall was an illegal structure when in the occupied Palestinian territories and that Israel would have to tear it down and make restitution for the damage it has caused to thousands of Palestinians. This position is entirely valid, but critics, in my view, have missed one crucial aspect of the wall’s purpose, which is, to "vanish" the Palestinians, to make them so invisible that Israelis can go on pretending that there is no "other man".

Post ww2 jews have done very well in america,,they have a lot of money and power and influence and they have used that to lobby congress in favour of Israel...
 
The radical left has always been rather covert when it came to foreign policy issues. It's good that we get it out in the open and establish clear objectives regarding Israel. It looks like the 2nd Hussein administration brings out the truth in the left's agenda. Bring it on.
They haven't been covert....They've outright lied.

They're every bit the warmongering interventionist butt-insky busybodies, as are the neocon republicans whom they claim to hate.
 
Because Israel is our only real ally in the Middle East.

What the fuck has Israel done for America lately?
Not a whole lot but when you have a CIC who does not seem to like or respect Israel despite his claims otherwise this is not a surprise. If a military strike is needed to keep Iran from getting nukes I'm pretty sure Israel will be the one to do that they have the history of doing those kind of things when neither the U.S. the U.N or anyone else wants to deal with the dirty work in the middle east.

No further questions....Fuckem.
 
All that "anti-Semite" name-calling bullshit from NaziCons used to scare people off - but not anymore! Facts are facts and truth is truth. Palestinians got fucked.

That "anti-semite" name-calling is not even remotely close to what your side does with trying to scare people off by calling them racists, homophobes, anti-woman etc.

Ok but I have some questions what have we asked Israel to do that they have refused to? What have we done for them lately?
 
Anyone have that hater quote from Dickweedkhota, where he/she/it said to spit and piss in the direction of Israel?
I think Willow Tree had it in his sig. " piss, shit, and jerk off towars Israel " is it!
God commands it for the Christian! Common since commands it for the free!

You mean besides the hundreds of billions in outright military handouts and other foreign aid giveaways, to a country that can afford to pay its own way?

How 'bout we make 'em eligible for unemployment and food stamps, too?

the borders of Israel have been decided by God.
no one cares what the U.N has to say about anything.

even if the Muslims had legitimate claim to that region, which they don't, we're talking about 1 percent of total Muslim land.
Muslims got their ass kicked, ...let it go.

it was set up so everyone gets to visit their holy land.
the Muslims unforgiving rule that anywhere their troops set foot,it belongs to them forver.

everyone who is anti-Israel is full of anti-Semitic fantasies, nothing good comes from them

why doesn't god give them 2BILLION/yr instead of the US tax-payers?
 
“Anti-Semitism” is a term that was coined in Europe during the latter half of the nineteenth century. Prominent Jewish scholars used it to characterize the emerging theories that “Semitic” races were inferior to “Aryan” races. Despite the fact that Arabs are Semitic, the term is now exclusively understood to mean “prejudiced against or hostile toward Jews,” according to all major dictionaries.

Refusal to recognize or support Israel has nothing to do with being “prejudiced against or hostile toward Jews” and everything to do with rejecting occupation, oppression and the myriad war crimes carried out by the Zionist state.

Another crock of shit from an insanely extremist blogger who is using a very erroneous 'definition' of Zionism which I have never encountered within any Zionist group I've encountered.

The term was not coined by 'Jewish scholars' as your 'source' implies - but it WAS coined specifically to refer to Jews, as it related to attitudes expressed in Germany and not in terms of the entire world.
 
There's a big difference between hating Israel and being tired of having it constantly thrown in our face.

Having what thrown in our face and who is this 'us' to whom you refer? Who are you speaking for?

and once again.. this is what i'm talking about insofar as you're concerned.

you've never once bitched about the money we've handed to the pals.

nor the money we spend in regard to the saudis who certainly don't need it...

or any other country we give money to...

and then it surprises you that it's pointed out that your anti-semitism is obvious?

lol
