What the Palestinian Authority Thinks Concerning a Palestinians State in the WB

[Hossfly]

Sorry Pbel, but that's a load of crap.

The extremist Palestinians in Gaza, including Hamas and Palestinian Islamic Jihad don't want a peace deal with Israel, because they see that as defeat.

Instead, they want victory through Jihad , and you know I'm right

Gaza is NOT a partner to this peace process...You only keep dragging in Hamas to justify the negation of peace...

Talk about Fatah recognized by the UN and Israel's allies...The Gaza terrorists should be dealt with Palestinian military force after peace is recognized by the UN and the Arab League.

I understand they are not part of the peace process. But assuming Israel and the PA do make a peace deal, what if Hamas and the Gazans don't approve of it ? (which is likely to be the case)

They would justify their actions by abiding by the old axiom-WWYD.( What Would Yassir Do?)

 

[Hossfly]

Indeed, but it is Israel's conflict. The Palestinians have always wanted peace.

The Palestinians consistently ask for peace based on justice and international law.

Unfortunately, you will never hear those words cross the lips of the phonies and their fake peace process.

Tinmore, I'm sitting here watching the news at 10:35 EDT and crawling across the screen, ----Haniyeh is calling for ........ "Palestinians to take up armed resistance against Israel and to hold protests against the ongoing Israel/Palestine Peace Talks".....
Now I see your talk about "Whine, Palestinians have always,Whine, wanted peace,Whine". You're talking that good old-fashioned go-to-meeting Taqiyyah and Turnspeak. And another thing, ol' buddy, ol' pal, the good old Nazi flag is flying again. What a bunch of dogs and animals do this shit?

Again: Arabs Fly Nazi Flag Near Road

For at least the second time in five months, Arab residents of Beit Umar in the Palestinian Authority (PA) have placed a Nazi flag over a major thoroughfare where Jews pass in their vehicles.


Beit Umar is located between Halhoul and the Etzion Bloc, not far from Hevron.


Soldiers from the Haruv battalion in Kfir Regiment tried to take down the flag Saturday, but encountered difficulty because it was placed very high up.


Again: Arabs Fly Nazi Flag Near Road - Defense/Security - News - Israel National News

Hossfly is not gonna give up until some questions are answered by the Palestinian Hamas Terrorist Supporters Association on this forum. Skate, deflect and lie but it's to no avail. The Prime Minister of the Palestinian Terrorist Government, Hamas, the Honorable Ishmail Haniyeh, is calling for an armed uprising against Israel while Israel is engaged in Peace Talks with the shadow-half of the 'Gubmint'.

At the same time, "religious" leaders are allowing NAZI flags to be flown at mosques and the so-called Hamas Government has a blind eye on the incident. WTF are the Hitler flags for? Anybody?

Yeah, right! Let's have 'peace talks' for the 1267th time. What a royal farce.

Either Hossfly struck a nerve or Allah won't reveal the issue to the faithful and shrouded it with a veil.

pbel, et al,

Well, there are two points here that I would like to address. I should address them in reverse order.

Two Side Bars Annotations:

• 
  [*]I did not come to your land, invade it, take over our homes for hundreds of years, and you expect praise?
  [*]Unless you were born prior to AUGUST 10, 1920 (Treaty of Sevres), the Arab-Palestinian had no sovereignty beyond that was not surrendered to the Allied Powers.

Ah, yes, these are Article 15 Jihadist. (Terrorist: The Next Generation)

Rocco, you forgot to add the poisoning of children's minds in Gaza, to make sure that when this generation of Jihadists is finished, another one awaits.

(COMMENT)

I find it so very hard to condemn the purposely tainted youth that know no better than what radical Islamist must be teaching them.

It is important that basic changes be made in the school curriculum, to cleanse it of the traces of ideological invasion that affected it as a result of the orientalists and missionaries who infiltrated the region following the defeat of the Crusaders at the hands of Salah el-Din (Saladin).

SOURCE: The Jihad for the Liberation of Palestine is an Individual Duty

There is no greater crime against humanity than to intentionally corrupt the mind of the youth in ways that promote future generations of terrorism. They might as well inflected them with a deadly virus.

Most Respectfully,
R

It really amazes me how your broadsides always seem to miss the center of the bull's eye. Sure you hit near it quite often, but this time you totally miss.

How can you make such broad statements as, " intentionally corrupt the mind of youth," when people are in a state of war? You come to my land, invade it, take over our homes for hundreds of years, and you expect praise?

Try to put your mind into a Palestinian who has been stripped his property, freedom and dignity. Western thought and Colonial Powers are responsible for this mess because the Palestinians refuse to surrender to Injustice.

Yes I would love an end to these hostilities, but balance the scale and stop calling Human Beings with a broad brush who are trying to regain their human rights of existence!

(COMMENT)

The first is the "state of war" issue; "even if the state of war is not recognized by one of them."

• This implies both the existence of the Hostile Arab-Palestinian (HoAP) acting as an irregular enemy combatant; and an enemy population of the territory to the belligerent Palestinian State - acting as a support mechanism for the continuation of hostilities.
  
• This also implies that there has been no general closure of military operations; as stated, a "state of war" still exists - as recognized by the belligerent Palestinian.

The "state of war" binds the Occupation Power (the Israelis) to exercises the functions of government in such territory, as may be necessary to maintain the peace and to suppress and neutralize the threat generated by the existing HoAP. Normally, in the territory of Parties to the conflict, the Occupation would cease on the anniversary to the general closure of military operations; since a "state of war" still exists, no anniversary exists. Both the HoAP Covenant and Charter still advocate Jihadist and Fedayeen activity direct towards the sovereignty of the State of Israel.

Where in the territory of conflict, the Occupation Power has detected and detained HoAP (that may appear to be a protected person) suspected of or engaged in activities hostile to the security of the State of Israel or the Occupation Forces, such an individual person shall not be entitled to claim such rights and privileges under the present Geneva Convention IV (Article 5) as would, if exercised in the favour of such individual person, be prejudicial to the security of such State.

Where in occupied territory an individual protected person (Palestinian) is detained as Jihadist and Fedayeen, or as a person under definite suspicion of activity hostile to the security of the Occupying Power, such person shall, in those cases where absolute military security so requires, be regarded as having forfeited rights of communication under the present Geneva Convention IV (Article 6).​

Article 15 Jihadist. (Terrorist: The Next Generation) The Question: How can you make such broad statements as, " intentionally corrupt the mind of youth," when people are in a state of war?

The promotion of Holy War (Jihad) and Martyrdom for Allah (Shahada) as Article 15 curriculum for children has a cause and effect; beyond that of the moral implications. The entire idea of promoting peace and regional security is undermined by the fact that the Palestinian, without compromise, makes demands certain to generate hostilities between the two cultures. And the HoAP further aggravates the situation through the promotion of conflict.

The very nature and character of the HoAP is demonstrated by the to promotion and glorification of violence and terror as part of the Article 15 curriculum for children. But what is dynamically important is not --- whether or not this is done --- the HoAP open admits it and endorses it, but that they believe it is some sort of imperative.

The real question here is whether or not, without regard to the cause, it is healthy for now and into the future, for the children of today to be raised as Jihadist and Fedayeen. Is it really a question in the minds of civilized societies as to whether or not children should be taught the ways of the Jihadist and Fedayeen?​

If someone missed the bullseye, it wasn't me. No civilized culture, that has as a goal, the peace and prosperity for its people, believes that children should be taught the way of the Jihadist and Fedayeen.

Nothing can justify terrorism — ever. No grievance, no goal, no cause can excuse terrorist acts. At the same time, we must remove the conditions that feed the problem.

• Terrorism festers where conflicts are endemic and where human rights, human dignity and human life are not protected and impunity prevails.
  
• Second: the importance of dialogue and understanding. We have to drown out shrill appeals to intolerance and extremism with sound calls for compassion and moderation.
  
• Third: the increasing use of information technology to spread hate. Terrorists and extremists are exploiting social media networks to radicalize people. This is yet another arena where we have to replace the terrorist narrative with messages of peace, development and human welfare.

SOURCE: Secretary-General SG/SM/14764 SC/10883

• Does the Article 15 curriculum for children feed the problem?
• Or does it build a future for peace?

It was the HoAP that said: “The only way to establish partition is first to wipe them out – man women and child." (Arab Higher Committee Delegation 6 Feb 48) The legacy of that declaration has lead to a half-century (+) of conflict. Be sure you teach them that the decision of their forefathers made them what they are today, refugees; not the Israeli and not the Allied Powers. Because it was the attitude of the HoAP that lead to open conflict.

Or you can go the way of peace.

Most Respectfully,
R

(COMMENT)

I neither defend or apologize for, the Israeli. They can do that for themselves. However, I do oppose Jihadism and Fedayeen action that is tantamount to terrorism.

There are three sets of simultaneous arguments presented by the Arab-Palestinian.

• The first has to do with the establishment of the Palestinian State, which the Palestinian claims by Covenant and Charter to be all of the territory formerly under British Mandate; less the Hashemite Kingdom.
  
• The second is the deals with settlement establishment inside the Armistice Lines within the Occupied Territories; an Article 49 GCIV and Article 8, Para 2b RS-ICC set of issues.
  
• Private Property land conversions relative to claims under the right of return, and settlement, reparations, or restitution thereto.

You did not specify and I did not breakout the discussion. I merely lumped them all into one set of disputes that need a negotiated outcome. Remembering, that quoted the axiom that "Nothing can justify terrorism — ever. No grievance, no goal, no cause can excuse terrorist acts."

It should be noted at this point, that I have, on many - many - occasions, argued (especially with our friend P F Tinmore) that property rights and sovereignty are mutually exclusive. I have never argued that some Arab-Palestinians might have some legitimate claim to land holdings. However, I also advocated for those claims to be settled in litigation, and not armed conflict.
​

However, the principle challenge you made was the right to spread Jihadist teaching to children.

As a subset of Jihadist and Fedayeen action is the indoctrinate children. And I am critically opposed to the resistance principle that Article 15 curriculum for children should be considered anything but "child abuse." If that makes me "not a neutral observer," then so be it.

Same old bull...and Israeli's killing stone throwing children is not child abuse, right? And I suppose Israeli right wing settlers don't teach their children to hate Palestinians, and of course none of the Zionists here ever spread hate or talk to their children about this war.

Give us a break.

The bold is a typical Palestinian propaganda comment used when the pro - Palestinian has no argument.

I don't believe that Zionist settlers teach their children hate, but I'm sure that many extremist settlers teach their children that Palestinians don't belong here (I don't agree with that teaching) but I can guarantee you that Jewish parents or teachers DO NOT teach their kids/students that Jihad is the way to go and that martyrdom is a beautiful thing and that death is alright as long as Jews are killed at the same time.

This would be a wrong assumption. There are two critical transition times.

• The first would be in August 1920, when the territory was remanded into the custody of the Allied Powers. While sovereignty changed, nothing effected private land holdings.

• The second was in May 1948, when the Jewish Agency declared independence, and the State of Israel emerged. While sovereignty changed, nothing effected private land holdings.

The first one is cut and dry.

The second one is a bit confusing.

• The UN Created a Partition Plan.
• The UK terminated its Mandate.
• The Mandate transferred to the UNPC under UNSC directive in accordance with the Implementation protocols.
• Israel declares independence.
• The unallocated portion of the remaining Mandate transfer to UNPC Mandate.
• The 1948-49 War opens.
• The UNPC is disbanded.

Israel didn't start anything against the Palestinians the Arabs started the shit against Israel the Palestinians got caught in the middle the Palestinians took up the cause and that's why they're always eating shit. And don't blame it on Irael. It's plainly Bush's fault. Now get your creaky old ass to bed.

The Palestinians went to Europe to start the conflict?

LOL you always say that, but no one made that comment.
You know full well what brought the Jews to Mandatory Palestine

The way you make it seem is as if while they were on the boat, they were planning how they were going to take over the land and kick everybody out !

The Arabs started the war, deal with it

i do. The Zionists imported hundreds of thousands of foreign settlers to fulfill their stated goal of creating a Jewish state in Palestine.

The Palestinians defended themselves from this foreign invasion like anyone else in the world would do and they have the right to do it.

Ok, but they did so with the help and acceptance, as well as PERMISSION from the British, the ones who ruled the land after capturing it from the Ottomans.

As for the Palestinians defending themselves, you say that concerning what the Palestinians are doing now. Do you have any specific examples of the Palestinians defending themselves against Israel in the last, say, 15 years?
I'm curious to see what your perspective of defending one's self is

That is correct. Palestinian land was never up for grabs.

Neither the LoN, the mandate, nor the UN ever annexed that land. It was merely held in trust. None of them had the authority to transfer any of that land to Israel and none of them did.

And, contrary to popular opinion, Israel did not win any land in the 1948 war.

Foreigners declared Israel on Palestinian land and to this date Israel has never legally acquired any land.

Why don't you give us a break, Phillip? You have nothing to say about the killing of innocent people by the Muslims because you are just using the Arabs as pawns in your hatred against the Jews. I think most of the viewers are smart enough to figure you out. I can see how some posters can't stand to see Rocco come up with the facts about Israel and the Palestinians. He is the most knowledgeable poster on this particular forum.

I sure wish Tinnie could tell us all the names of the kings of this magical country of Palestine along with other facts, such as their laws and their monetary system. By the way, I guess Tinnie is calling Winston Churchill and the British officials who were stationed in the area liars when they said that the Arabs came in droves from their impoverished countries when the Jews had jobs for them. It is the same thing we see happening today. I guess Tinnie closes his eyes to all the Muslims leaving their poor countries to go to civilized countries where they can have a better life. Meanwhile, I wonder how many of Tinnie's relatives and friends will heed the call of that Egyptian official who said that Gazans should go home to Egypt. Maybe if there wasn't trouble in Egypt, busloads of them would go back to the country of their roots. I wonder if Tinnie can pull up some document which will show us that this magical country of Palestine was held in trust for Tinnie's people.

It is the same thing we see happening today. I guess Tinnie closes his eyes to all the Muslims leaving their poor countries to go to civilized countries where they can have a better life. Meanwhile, I wonder how many of Tinnie's relatives and friends will heed the call of that Egyptian official who said that Gazans should go home to Egypt. Maybe if there wasn't trouble in Egypt, busloads of them would go back to the country of their roots. I wonder if Tinnie can pull up some document which will show us that this magical country of Palestine was held in trust for Tinnie's people.

Irrelevant. An independent state is the realization of the right to self determination, not a prerequisite.

Is that a fact? I can post information about any country in the world with a lineage of presidents, emperors, kings,prime ministers, secretaries of state, poet laureates, surgeons general, and court jesters. Save me the trouble and post your list of Palestinian notables. Please.
