Palestinians Massing At The Israeli Border

Some frank and direct observations on the Tire Riots being waged by Arabs-Moslems is refreshing.

Palestinians: The Real Gaza Blockade

• The Rafah border crossing is the Gaza Strip's single opening to Egypt and the rest of the Arab world. That border crossing is where the real suffering of the Palestinians has been taking place.
  
  
• The Gaza Strip could be a livable environment if the Egyptians opened the Rafah terminal to allow the world to come and help the Palestinians living there.
  
  
• As Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh and other organizers of the campaign have clearly stated in recent weeks, the Palestinian protests are aimed at thwarting US President Donald Trump's yet-to-be-announced plan for peace in the Middle East.
  
  
  
  I think the first and last bullet points, while accurate, don’t drill down on the difficult position the Egyptian government faces. They know from experience that their border and territory is threatened by Pal’istanian terrorists. The Egyptians, like Israel, are faced with an elaborate network of tunnels that obviously brings risks to their borders and beyond.
  
  But, as the article later describes, the Pal’Istanians and their supporters have an obvious agenda to promote and that doesn’t (yet) require attacking the Egyptian border. I suspect if that attack happens, we’re going to see none of the restraint that the IDF has shown. That scenario could leave Pal’Istanian bodies several deep if the Peaceful Inner Struggle moves to the Rafah crossing area.

Hamas never had any inclination of attacking Egypt.

You waged war, you got war, sweetie.

What purpose is served by these silly YouTube infomercials for Islamist whiners?

Link?

You are on the wrong thread, discussing the wrong topic.
So long. Time for you to go.

Do you think Israel's war against the Palestinians is not the reason for the protests?

No, the cause is the Palestinian war against Israel.

Is that when the Palestinians went to Europe and attacked the Zionists?

Friday Sermon by Gaza Cleric Musa Abu Jleidan: The "Return March" Goes Hand in Hand with Jihad by the Sword; The Jews Are the Philosophers of Terrorism and Crime

Friday Sermon by Gaza Cleric Musa Abu Jleidan: The "Return March" Goes Hand in Hand with Jihad by the Sword; The Jews Are the Philosophers of Terrorism and Crime

In a Friday sermon, Gaza cleric Sheikh Musa Abu Jleidan said that the "Great Return March" is a "form of Jihad" that "does not eliminate the need for Jihad by the sword, by missiles, and by rockets." "They go hand in hand," he said. Speaking at Masjid Al-Abrar, Rafah, on April 27, Sheikh Abu Jleidan further said that the Jews "are the philosophers of terrorism and crime, people of treachery and deceit, who slayed the prophets of Allah." The sermon was posted on Sheikh Abu Jleidan's YouTube channel.

An IDF force shot a terrorist who attempted to infiltrate Israel by crossing the security fence in the northern Gaza Strip this morning, Thursday.

A knife and a wire cutter were found on the body of the suspect, who was evacuated by IDF forces for medical treatment and further questioning.

The border fence is not only a symbol of Israeli sovereignty. It is a symbol of non-Muslim sovereignty that — in their radical eyes — is seen as “oppressing and persecuting Muslims.” Therefore, it must be destroyed in order to preserve and maintain the “purity of Islam.” Suicidal attacks against the fence, like those against other targets throughout the world, are carried out by those willing to sacrifice themselves for what they believe is a “holy” purpose. That’s why they are called “martyrs.” They are willing to die for their cause — Islam.

For Hamas and Islamists, the fence is a perfect symbol; it defines the conflict. The “good guys” are on one side; the “bad guys” are on the other side. Breaching and destroying the fence becomes a way of demonstrating not only one’s courage, but — more importantly — one’s faith. It is not only an act of self-sacrifice, but one of self-affirmation and redemption.

Everyone who planned, supported, and engaged in the Disengagement should have known, or at least anticipated, that Israel would likely be drawn into quicksand from which it could not escape and would only further the conflict. The riots at the fence confirm the warnings and predictions at the time, which have come true.

Gaza’s Border Fence: A Symbol of Israeli Sovereignty

 

[Sixties Fan]

The New York Times decided to report from inside the heart of the Palestinian violence currently taking place on Israel’s border with Gaza under the headline: “Plan to Storm Fence Gets Bloody Preview in Gaza.”

So what of this fence?

For the first time in five weeks of protests, some reached the second barrier — an electrified, sensor-laden fence that marks the edge of Israeli territory — and tried to climb it or pull it down. A few hundred yards beyond it lies the Israeli farming community of Nahal Oz. …

Ibrahim Shahin, 26, said he was among a group of about 12 men who cut through the barbed wire and then began climbing the electrified fence.

An “electrified” fence?

Were the 12 men climbing this fence wearing rubber gloves and boots?

Of course not — because nobody will be shocked or electrocuted if they touch either the Gaza fence or the security barrier that prevents Palestinian terrorists from infiltrating into Israel from the disputed territories.

Describing both of these structures as “electrified” conjures such images, and this language is regularly employed by anti-Israel propagandists to challenge the reality of these fences as defensive and non-lethal measures.
