All The News Anti-Israel Posters Will Not Read Or Discuss

A couple of observations:

• Palestinians on the West Bank are not “deprived.” Bartlett’s use of language is simply embellished.
• Other teenagers do not take a trip to the beach for granted. Like most other world towns and cities, Bethlehem is not located on the coast and Israel has no obligation to allow unfettered freedom for non-Israelis to cross into the country and travel to the beach.
• There is nothing to stop Palestinians from going to one of several movie theaters in Bethlehem to watch a movie.
• Bartlett never mentions why there are Israeli checkpoints and the security barrier. Rather than preventing Palestinian children from going to the beach, these measures are there to prevent Palestinian terrorists from carrying out attacks against Israeli civilians.

We then see the Palestinian son “confined to the streets of Bethlehem” kicking a football, while the Jewish settler son is playing basketball on a modern court as he is able “to do as he pleases.” The entire focus on a Palestinian and an Israeli teen is deliberately meant to highlight the supposed differences in lifestyle, playing into a narrative of Palestinian victimhood. In fact, Bethlehem is under the control of the Palestinian Authority, which has the ability to build infrastructure, including leisure facilities for its youth if it so wished.

Seven minutes in, Bartlett heads to Hebron where he introduces his guide Yehuda Shaul as “a former Israeli soldier…who has turned and become an advocate for the Palestinians. This has made him a traitor to the Israeli settlers. They despise him.”

What Bartlett fails to mention is that Shaul is not an ordinary guy who happens to disagree with Israeli policies. Shaul is a founder of Breaking the Silence, a highly politicized organization that collects anonymous testimonies of Israeli soldiers of alleged and most often unsubstantiated misdemeanors or “war crimes” that it presents to a mainly foreign audience as a means of fighting Israel’s “occupation.”

Michael Bolton performed in Lebanon on Wednesday night at the Jounieh Summer Festival.

Lebanon has literally passed laws to ensure that Palestinians can't own land, can't get many jobs, can't go to university and can't build even within their overcrowded camps.

Some two thirds of Lebanese Palestinians live under the poverty line.

Lebanon built a wall around one of those camps, complete with watchtowers. Lebanese police don't get involved as rival terror groups shoot at each other in these camps,often with fatal results both to each other and to residents there.

Lebanon had rejected the idea of granting citizenship to hundreds of thousands of Palestinians who have lived there for decades. Nor do their children have any rights.

Lebanon accepts hundreds of thousands of Syrian refugees - but turns back any who are Palestinian.

By any objective measure, Lebanon is a far worse place for Palestinians to live than the West Bank is.

Yet no one went on Bolton's Facebook page and demanded that he cancel the concert in solidarity with the Palestinians who are being oppressed, by law, every day in Lebanon.

Lebanon did not invade or colonize a foreign land, nor has it evicted the native people of a foreign land. A poor country, it has generously allowed a large population of refugees to live in Lebanon.

Israel's founders invaded and colonized a foreign land (invading from another continent) and evicted the native people of the land they invaded, creating the refugee problem.

That's the difference.

There was some exaggeration here; not all of the Allies shared the same understanding of the policy or saw the “actual wording.” But Lloyd George pointed to the forgotten truth that I sought to resurrect through my essay. In 1917, there was not yet a League of Nations or a United Nations. But, in the consensus of the Allies, there was the nucleus of a modern international order. The Balfour Declaration had the weight of this consensus behind it, before Balfour signed it. This international buy-in is also why the Balfour Declaration entered the mandate for Palestine, entrusted to Britain by the League of Nations. Those who now cast the Balfour Declaration as an egregious case of imperial self-dealing simply don’t know its history (or prefer not to know it).

The Balfour Declaration Was More than the Promise of One Nation

The problem with the Balfour Declaration is that Britain never had title to that land. They had no say in what happened in that land.

Palestinian refugees are foreigners in Lebanon. They are not Lebanon's responsibility.

The UN has multiple resolutions addressing that problem. Those resolutions have all been violated.

Gee whiz. Nothing but your usual slogans about some "invasion" your have made up.

Really sweetie, your made up history is a hoot. Your failure to supply a historical (or in your your case, hysterical) reference to your claimed Joooo invasion is pretty typical of your nonsensical claims. As the historical record indicates, the Jews were encouraged to immigrate to the area you mistakenly believe to be your invented "country of Pal'istan".

Secondly, you should learn some relevant history to understand that the "invaders" and colonizers were the invading Islamists. You should take the time to learn of the muhammedan conquest of the area.

Lastly, the Arab-islamist refugee problem was a function of the muhammedan armies crossing the frontier in 1948 as a part of their hoped for Joooo genocide.

Hope that helps.

This is Israeli bullshit, of course. 300,000 Palestinians became refugees before the 1948 war.

The plan of the Zionist invasion was to replace the Palestinians with foreign settlers. The facts on the ground affirm that plan.

PA libel: Israel uses drugs in war against Palestinians

Discussing the war on drugs in Jerusalem, a Palestinian Authority TV host stated that Israel is deliberately targeting young Palestinians with drugs.

Israeli Arab Students Strip-searched in Airport Check Sue El Al and Arkia

The three plaintiffs, Arabs from northern Israel, are suing the airlines for over $100,000 over the humiliating treatment they went through before boarding a return flight from Belgrade, Serbia

The lawsuit alleges that at the airport for their return flight to Israel, the women were separated from the other Israelis in the tour group for special scrutiny that lasted more than two hours, during which they were forced to undress and underwent humiliating, intrusive body searches as well as a search of a cellphone. They alleged that they were also under constant guard during the remainder of their time at the airport.
