Exposing The Lie Of Israel Apartheid / Moscow's role

A Muslim woman, daughter of an illiterate Bedouin, now a Stanford grad, tells the truth about Gaza​


 
  • The breakdown in Israel-Soviet relations was later compounded by Israel's defensive victories against the Arabs in 1967 and again in 1973. Over this period all hope of Israel becoming a Soviet client had steadily evaporated. Arab armies sponsored, trained and equipped by the USSR had been humiliated, and so had Moscow. Thus the Soviets progressively developed a policy of undermining Israel. Their primary objective was to use the country as a weapon in their Cold War struggle against the US and the West.
  • "We needed to instil a Nazi-style hatred for the Jews throughout the Islamic world, and to turn this weapon of the emotions into a terrorist bloodbath against Israel and its main supporter, the United States." — Yuri Andropov, Chairman of the Soviet KGB, later General Secretary of the Soviet Communist Party, as reported by General Ion Pacepa, former chief of Romania's intelligence services.
  • As well as mobilising the Arabs to the Soviet cause, Andropov and his KGB colleagues needed to appeal to the democratic world. To do so, the Kremlin decided to turn the conflict from one that sought simply to destroy Israel into a struggle for human rights and national liberation from an illegitimate American-sponsored imperialist occupier. They set about transforming the narrative of the conflict from religious jihad — in which Islamic doctrine demands that any land that has ever been under Muslim control must be regained for Islam — to secular nationalism and political self-determination, something far more palatable to Western democracies. This would provide cover for a vicious terrorist war, even garnering widespread support for it.
  • To achieve their goal, the Soviets had to create a Palestinian national identity that did not hitherto exist and a narrative that Jews had no rights to the land and were naked aggressors. According to Pacepa, the KGB created the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) in the early 1960s, as they had also orchestrated so-called national liberation armies in several other parts of the world. He says the 1964 Palestinian National Charter was drafted in Moscow. This document was fundamental to the invention and establishment of an artificial Palestinian nationhood.
  • The details of Moscow-sponsored terrorist operations in the Middle East and elsewhere are set out in 25,000 pages of KGB documents copied and then smuggled out of Russia in the early 1990s by senior KGB archivist Vasili Mitrokhin and now lodged in the UK, at Churchill College, Cambridge.
  • The initial charter did not claim the West Bank or the Gaza Strip for "Palestine". In fact, it explicitly repudiated any rights to these lands, falsely recognising them respectively as Jordanian and Egyptian sovereign territories. Instead, the PLO claim was to the rest of Israel. This was amended after the 1967 war when Israel ejected the illegal Jordanian and Egyptian occupiers, and the West Bank and Gaza for the first time were re-branded as Palestinian territory.
  • Moscow first took its campaign to brand Israeli Jews as the oppressors of their invented "Palestinian people" to the UN in 1965. Their attempts to categorise Zionism as racism failed at that attempt but succeeded nearly a decade later in the infamous UN General Assembly Resolution 3379.
  • Zuheir Mohsen, a senior PLO leader, admitted in 1977: "The Palestinian people do not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity... Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct 'Palestinian people' to oppose Zionism. Yes, the existence of a separate Palestinian identity exists only for tactical reasons."
  • The Mitrokhin documents show that both Yasser Arafat, and his successor as PLO chief, Mahmoud Abbas, now President of the Palestinian Authority, were KGB agents. Both were instrumental in the KGB's disinformation operations as well as its terrorist campaigns.
  • For his dealings with Washington, Ceaușescu told Arafat in 1978: "You simply have to keep on pretending that you'll break with terrorism and that you'll recognize Israel — over, and over, and over."
  • Ceaușescu's advice was reinforced by North Vietnamese communist General Vo Nguyen Giap, whom Arafat met several times: "Stop talking about annihilating Israel and instead turn your terror war into a struggle for human rights. Then you will have the American people eating out of your hand".
  • Like his predecessor Arafat, Abbas's consistent rejection of every offer of peace with Israel, while concurrently talking the talk about peace and while sponsoring terrorism, shows the continuing influence of his Soviet masters.
  • Meanwhile the Palestinian movement created by Moscow, in the words of American historian David Meir-Levi, is "the only national movement for political self-determination in the entire world, and across all of world history, to have the destruction of a sovereign state and the genocide of a people as its only raison d'être."
  • Moscow's campaign was significantly undermined by the 2020 rapprochement between Israel and Arab states. The lesson here is the importance of American political will against authoritarian propaganda, which led to the game-changing Abraham Accords.

The lie of "Israeli apartheid" was dreamt up in Moscow during the Cold War and driven home by a relentless Soviet propaganda campaign until it took hold in the UN and across the Middle East and the West. This included the repeated comparison of Israel with South Africa in the Soviet media and in books such as "Zionism and Apartheid", an official state publication of Ukraine, then part of the Soviet Union.

The sometimes naive, sometimes malign students who will again be holding their poisonous "Israel apartheid week" at universities across the globe this year will be parroting the same Soviet propaganda as their predecessors have done for decades. They, and many other Israel-haters use the apartheid slogan regardless of the reality that under no rational measure can Israel be considered an apartheid state. They do so because its meaning is easily understood, it disgusts people and rallies them to the anti-Israel cause. That is why it was invented by Moscow.


Good.
 


It was agreed upon in the Oslo Accords, which is a part of the Israeli law (obviously) as the Palestinians insisted. The few times Israelis entered those territories, they were stormed by Palestinian mobs, and almost murdered, and barely managed to get out.

Sophia Kalifa, an Arab Muslim who grew up in Israel, emphasizes that her experience has been extremely positive, even transformative, saying, “Israel gave me everything.”

Living in Israel, she witnessed firsthand the inclusive treatment of non-Jews, characterized by respect, dignity, and the assurance of full rights.

Sophia’s life serves as a living testament to the possibility of peaceful coexistence between Arabs and Jews and she believes that Americans should care about the atrocities committed by Hamas.

The Lavon Affair came close to driving the Egyptians into the arms of the Soviets. So did the Suez Crisis. It's amazing to me that it didn't.

Operation Ajax in Iran almost turned Iran into a Soviet client.

The Oslo Accords were a farce. The ink wasn't dry before Israel began building Jewish only settlements in the West Bank as fast as they could.
 
The Israeli-Christian population is growing rapidly and continues to enjoy high educational and professional attainment levels, according to numbers recently released by the Israeli Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS).

According to the report from last month, 187,900 Christians reside in Israel, an increase of 1.3 percent from the year before, marking the third consecutive year the population has grown.

In 2021, the Christian population rose to 182,000 with an increase of 1.4 percent, and in 2022, the growth was 2 percent to 185,000 people, according to the CBS’s data. The vast majority of the Christian population — 75.3 percent — are Arab Christians, while Christians make up 1.9 percent of Israel’s total population.

The largest Arab Christian population centers in Israel are Nazareth (20,800), Haifa (16,800), and Jerusalem (13,000).

CBS data has shown that Arab Christian women have some of the highest educational attainment levels in the country.

The latest report found that 55.1 percent of Arab Christians continued their studies toward a bachelor’s degree within eight years of graduating high school, compared to only 34.6 percent of the total number of high school graduates in the Arab school system and 48.1 percent of all graduates in Hebrew education.

According to previous CBS data, 84 percent of Christians are satisfied with their life in Israel: 24 percent answered “very satisfied” and 60 percent were “satisfied.”

In 2021, 815 Christian couples married in Israel, with the average age for the first marriage of Christian grooms being 30.7, and that of Christian brides being 27.4.



 
According to the Shavei Israel organization, which has been working to bring members of the group to Israel for over 20 years, 215 men from the Bnei Menashe tribe were already serving in the IDF and taking part in fighting against Hamas and Hezbollah. According to the organization, 75 of them were active duty soldiers (most in combat units) and 140 in the reserves.

The organization also said that, as a general rule, the rate of recruits among the Indian immigrants was very high and stands at 99% among the boys. 10% of the girls enlist in the IDF and 90% do national service, for religious reasons.

"The members of the Bnei Menashe community are passionate Zionists and care deeply about the State of Israel, its citizens and their security. It is not by chance that many of them choose to serve in combat units in the IDF, and we are proud of their willingness to risk their lives like other IDF soldiers," said the founder and chairman Shavei Israel organization, Michael Freund.

"Since the outbreak of the war, we have received hundreds of requests from young community members in northeastern India who wish to immigrate to Israel and enlist immediately in the IDF to fight shoulder to shoulder with their brothers and sisters."
