Boycott Israel

[Hollie]

Here is a contemporary report that followed the arrival of the Black Death to Europe in the spring of 1348: “On the day that any plague or famine occurs, the people cry ‘All this happens because of the sins of Jacob! Destroy this nation, kill them!’ And during the disaster [...] they undertake in a violently thoughtless way to destroy the unfortunate Jews.”

How old is old antisemitism?

THE BEST manifestation of new antisemitism seems to be United Nations General Assembly Resolution 3379, adopted on November 10, 1975, by a sweeping majority of 72 to 35, stating that Zionism is a form of racism and racial discrimination. It is remarkable that Zionism was singled out from all national liberation movements to bear the mark of Cain. And who was blaming Zionism? Gaddafi’s Libya, Saddam Hussein’s Iraq, Idi Amin’s Uganda and the like.

Yet the UN resolution was not the first libel against Jews blaming them for conspiring to rule the world. As early as 1903, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion was published in Russia and distributed all over the United States thanks to the generosity of Henry Ford. These fabricated protocols purported to describe a Jewish plan for global domination. Though proved to be false, the Protocols continues to be influential and fuel what is known as new antisemitism.

This is an appropriate place to discuss the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions campaign. Those who lead the campaign argue that it is a result of Israeli occupation following the 1967 Six Day War. This is not true. Boycotts of Jewish-owned businesses were organized by Arab leaders starting in 1922, 26 years before the establishment of the State of Israel, and 45 years before the 1967 war. As of 1945, the Arab League led the boycott, in which members of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation joined.

Of interest is that the boycott damages Palestinians no less than Israelis. Following the 1967 war, several Israeli enterprises established projects at the border of the West Bank, hiring Palestinian workers. Following the development of BDS, many of them moved back to Israel proper leaving behind thousands of jobless people.

Obviously, occupation is not the cause of the BDS campaign but rather its excuse. Even if Israel withdraws from all territories, the boycott won’t end as long as the State of Israel exists.

To use Gove’s words, “The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement against Israel is antisemitic. They hate Israel, and they wish to wipe out the Jewish people’s home, not because of what Israel does but because of what Israel is – free, democratic, liberal and Western. We need to remind ourselves that defending Israel’s right to exist is defending our common humanity. Now more than ever.”

Not so, The occupation officially started when Britain landed in Palestine with the Balfour Decleration in its pocket.

Kicking Arab ass for over 100 years!!!

Piece of cake for Britain, the biggest colonial power of the time.

The age of the islamic war on humanity which lasted for hundreds of years had been extinguished long before the emergence of the British Empire. The islamic invaders who brought war, rapine and conquest to Europe and Asia were expelled.

Interesting, you associate British recognition of Jewish national rights with occupation,
but not the Ottoman Caliphate ruling over several continents,
nor the British aided Hashemite invasion from Arabia?

That means you associate occupation,
with anything but Muslim supremacy.

Being a citizen of a country is different than being the subject of an occupation. There was, however, some interest in independence.

And most of the petroleum industry really would like the new UAE oil. Most out of the middle east is of poor quality due to their antiquated equipment. UAE has new equipment.

How does the age of the equipment change the quality of the oil?

Light sweet crude is not the same across the board.
Usually it's priced as "Brent" or "WTI". Now WTI (West Texas Intermediate) is usually cheaper but better quality (less water and contaminants) than Brent (which is what Middle East oil gets priced at.

The initial refining is supposed to remove the water and contaminants from the oil. And depending upon the source it will determine the final product such as gasoline or diesel, motor oil and lubricant or plastics. Texas produces a blend of diesel and motor oil...South America produces gasoline and the middle east produces motor oil like Africa does. Canada makes plastics.

All refining is usually done around 80% capacity in a normal basis to change seals and make repairs. Every 5-10 years you need a complete changeover. (Crude Oil is acidic and eats the plumbing) this is when newer refining tech is installed...new heat exchangers and flow and pressure and temperature sensors. Filters too.

UAE just had a complete rebuild (as usual budgeted schedule) but also increased capacity as the other surrounding nations are needing to have upgrades and need someone to keep producing.

It removes more water and contaminants if it's going to be sold as light sweet crude.

Oil is usually sold by contracts instead of the spot market. The UAE wants a larger chunk of contracts and the others to take less of the sweet spot of supply and demand (plus cheats)
Contract negotiation price is lower than the spot market (advertised every day as part of the futures market) but it also depends on the well it's produced from too.

A barrel of oil is 55 gallons....but Brent is usually holding at least a gallon of pollutants and water. (Usually more)

Depends on a lot of factors...speed oil is pumping out, other pumps in vicinity and available pipelines.
Some like those often used in Louisiana just get a holding tank and separator system. Pumped out on a schedule...the systems used vary wildly depending on type of oil and contaminants.

Here is a contemporary report that followed the arrival of the Black Death to Europe in the spring of 1348: “On the day that any plague or famine occurs, the people cry ‘All this happens because of the sins of Jacob! Destroy this nation, kill them!’ And during the disaster [...] they undertake in a violently thoughtless way to destroy the unfortunate Jews.”

How old is old antisemitism?

THE BEST manifestation of new antisemitism seems to be United Nations General Assembly Resolution 3379, adopted on November 10, 1975, by a sweeping majority of 72 to 35, stating that Zionism is a form of racism and racial discrimination. It is remarkable that Zionism was singled out from all national liberation movements to bear the mark of Cain. And who was blaming Zionism? Gaddafi’s Libya, Saddam Hussein’s Iraq, Idi Amin’s Uganda and the like.

Yet the UN resolution was not the first libel against Jews blaming them for conspiring to rule the world. As early as 1903, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion was published in Russia and distributed all over the United States thanks to the generosity of Henry Ford. These fabricated protocols purported to describe a Jewish plan for global domination. Though proved to be false, the Protocols continues to be influential and fuel what is known as new antisemitism.

This is an appropriate place to discuss the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions campaign. Those who lead the campaign argue that it is a result of Israeli occupation following the 1967 Six Day War. This is not true. Boycotts of Jewish-owned businesses were organized by Arab leaders starting in 1922, 26 years before the establishment of the State of Israel, and 45 years before the 1967 war. As of 1945, the Arab League led the boycott, in which members of the Organization of Islamic Cooperation joined.

Of interest is that the boycott damages Palestinians no less than Israelis. Following the 1967 war, several Israeli enterprises established projects at the border of the West Bank, hiring Palestinian workers. Following the development of BDS, many of them moved back to Israel proper leaving behind thousands of jobless people.

Obviously, occupation is not the cause of the BDS campaign but rather its excuse. Even if Israel withdraws from all territories, the boycott won’t end as long as the State of Israel exists.

To use Gove’s words, “The Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement against Israel is antisemitic. They hate Israel, and they wish to wipe out the Jewish people’s home, not because of what Israel does but because of what Israel is – free, democratic, liberal and Western. We need to remind ourselves that defending Israel’s right to exist is defending our common humanity. Now more than ever.”
