Who Are The Palestinians? Part 2

[Sixties Fan]

Here is a remarkable hidden camera video where an Israeli reporter went to ordinary Palestinians in the West Bank and asked them how they felt about the Palestinian Authority and Israel.

They were generally very frank in admitting that Mahmoud Abbas has not helped them at all, and that his attempts to get them to protest (for example, the Deal of the Century) were failures.

One said that if elections were held between Bibi and Mahmoud Abbas, Bibi would win.

Ironic that “palestinians,” a militant nationalist group, get their name from “palestine,” Britain’s name for the British Mandate, which led to Israeli statehood. They literally identify by the name of a European imperialist colonialist entity and even defer to it for borders. Not very authentic

Al-Malki: Israel will “destroy Al-Aqsa and build alleged Temple” after annexation
PA Foreign Minister Riyad Al-Malki has twice recently fanned the flames of religious war among Palestinians and the entire Muslim world. The top PA official continues to demonize Israel with the libel that Israel plans “to destroy the Al-Aqsa Mosque and build the alleged Temple.” Al-Malki made one of his statements in a video conference of Arab officials at the level of foreign ministers regarding Israel's presumed future annexation - i.e., applying Israeli law to the Jordan Valley and the Jewish cities and towns in the West Bank:

PA Minister of Foreign Affairs Riyad Al-Malki: “[Israel's annexation] will place the blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque… under full Israeli control,in order to execute their plan to promote their false narrative in order to destroy it and build their alleged Temple. This will turn the conflict from a political conflict into a religious conflict whose end will be bad and bitter, will undermine the stability, and will destroy the security and peace in the region and the world.”

Islamism. The real apartheid.

The Middle East’s real apartheid

The Jewish State's supporters find it difficult to agree on the best response to Israel Apartheid Week.

www.jpost.com

Indeed, it was the Palestinian terror organization that invented the apartheid canard in the mid-1960s, years before Israel’s occupation of the West Bank and Gaza.

This charge, of course, is not only completely false but the inverse of the truth. If apartheid is indeed a crime against humanity, Israel actually is the only apartheid-free state in the Middle East – a state whose Arab population enjoys full equality before the law and more prerogatives than most ethnic minorities in the free world, from the designation of Arabic as an official language to the recognition of non-Jewish religious holidays as legal days of rest.

By contrast, apartheid has been an integral part of the Middle East for over a millennium, and its Arab and Muslim nations continue to legally, politically and socially enforce this discriminatory practice against their hapless minorities.

Palestinian Authority TV has used a music video by a former UNWRA Regional Youth Ambassador to laud terrorists and encourage violence among the Palestinian population.

The video is for a song titled My Blood is Palestinian by Muhammad Assaf, winner of the 2013 Arab Idol song contest. Following his win, Assaf went on to become a Palestinian Arab pop star with a strong following among the youth, leading to his appointment as UNWRA Regional Youth Ambassador between 2013 and 2017.


The song includes the lyrics: "I’ve remained as I was. I’ve remained loyal to my religion. On my land you will find me. I will sacrifice myself for my family. My blood is Palestinian, Palestinian." A 2016 video for the song cut images of Assaf performing the song live with footage of Palestinians dancing, and scenes of flag waving, rioting and rock throwing.

While I think it's long past due that the Great Satan has taken steps to bring this member of the Tamimi Islamic terrorist syndicate to infidel justice, let's hope President Trump gets serious about this.

US mulls withholding aid to Jordan to force extradition of Palestinian terrorist

Family of Malki Roth, Israeli-US girl killed in 2001 Sbarro bombing, hails 'encouraging' news as Trump administration vows to 'explore all options' to bring Ahlam Tamimi to justice

Family of Malki Roth, Israeli-US girl killed in 2001 Sbarro bombing, hails ‘encouraging’ news as Trump administration vows to ‘explore all options’ to bring Ahlam Tamimi to justice.

The United States is considering withholding aid from one of its closest Arab partners, Jordan, in a bid to secure the extradition of a woman convicted in Israel of a 2001 terror bombing that killed 15 people, including two American citizens.

The family of one of those US citizens, 15-year-old Malki Roth, has been leading a campaign to extradite the terrorist to the US, after Israel imprisoned and then freed her.

The Trump administration says it’s weighing “all options” to press Jordan to extradite Ahlam Aref Ahmad Al-Tamimi, who is wanted by the US on a charge of conspiring to use a weapon of mass destruction against American nationals. The charge was filed under seal in 2013 and announced by the Justice Department four years later.

It's really comical to read that a EU official is somehow shocked to discover that Pal terrorists are using EU welfare dollars to finance Islamic terrorism.

A senior European Union official on Tuesday said he asked the bloc’s representatives in Israel and the Palestinian territories to investigate whether any EU funds are benefiting terrorists or their supporters.

“We have received a number of requests from the Israeli authorities in that regard, also from the public in Israel. I took immediate action, I asked both the heads of delegations in Tel Aviv but also in the West Bank and Gaza Strip, to look into the matter,” Olivér Várhelyi, the EU Commissioner for Neighbourhood and Enlargement, said during a meeting of the European Parliament’s Foreign Affairs Committee.

There is some Islamic terrorist behavior modification taking place after rockets were fired from the mini-caliphate of Gaza’istan.

“Israeli aircraft and tanks shell sites used by the terrorist group in southern Gaza, including underground facilities. This aggression comes after Israel approved a $50 million Qatari cash infusion into the coastal enclave, set to be delivered this week.”



It seems the Islamic terrorists were spending their welfare money on weapons and ammunition in anticipation of a big welfare payday.

 

[Hollie]

More Islamo-bluster from the Hamas Islamic terrorist franchise. As usual, they’re using a form of extortion - threatening Islamic terrorist attacks -unless their demands for welfare money are met.

Hamas said threatening to resume Gaza protests unless Qatari funds arrive

If Israel does not allow Qatari aid money to reach the Gaza Strip, Hamas could soon act to end the calm which has prevailed in recent months and renew nightly operations as soon as next Friday, Palestinian sources told Kan news on Saturday.

The source further told Kan that if the condition was not met in two weeks, Hamas would start sending units to “penetrate” the Gaza border fence and potentially enter Israeli territory.

I agree!

BLUF: Allowing Qatari aid money to reach the Gaza Strip is nothing more than a front for funneling money to the illegal groups.

As usual, they’re using a form of extortion - threatening Islamic terrorist attacks -unless their demands for welfare money are met.

(COMMENT)

I'm not sure that the threat is actually credible. HAMAS must know (by now) that Israel is following the International protocols.

Allowing Qatari funding to reach the HAMAS in the Gaza Strip, under the guise of "humanitarian aid" is a very old Arab Palestinian trick. It was very popular in the late 1990s and the first decade of the 21st Century.

The threat itself constitutes a "criminal act" directed against Israel, intended to create "fear" in the minds of the Israeli general public - and the destabilization of the se3ccurity throughout the Middle East.

HAMAS must be aware that incitement of terrorist acts motivated by extremism and intolerance poses a serious danger to the enjoyment of social and economic development throughout the region. Why their population tolerates this is beyond me.

Most Respectfully,

There is a certain amount of comedy gold when watching the shenanigans surrounding both Abbas and the Hamas Islamic terrorist franchise. Its so much like babysitting petulant children.

https://www.israelhayom.com/opinions/the-abbas-comedy-and-ongoing-palestinian-tragedy/

If you think you've seen this movie before, you're right.

Palestinian Authority leader Mahmoud Abbas has declared that he is abrogating all agreements with Israel so many times it's a wonder that he could do so again with a straight face. Indeed, he started making these threats as soon as he succeeded PLO chairman Yasser Arafat and has never really stopped during the course of the 15 years of his four-year term as leader of the PA

The latest occasion for his usual theatrics is the possibility that Israel might extend sovereignty into parts of the West Bank, as envisioned by the Trump administration's "Peace to Prosperity" plan. Abbas didn't merely reject the Trump scheme, as he did several other even more generous Mideast plans in the past. He refused even to negotiate with the Trump administration.

The latest submission by the Palestinian Authority to the International Criminal Court (ICC) is a prime example of how the PA tailors and changes the content of the speeches of its leaders, and its positions in general, depending on the identity and perceived naïveté of the target audience.

In this instance, while speaking in Arabic to the Palestinian audience PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas, in his May 19, 2020 speech, declared that as of that day, the PA no longer sees itself obligated by the accords and agreements signed with Israel. In contrast, in the PA submission to the ICC, Abbas’ declaration suddenly became conditional on a future event.

These contradictory claims were, however, merely the tip of the iceberg, with the PA’s submission.

While the PA claims to have attached to its submission a translation of Abbas’ speech, Palestinian Media Watch has found that the document attached is not a transcription of the speech. Rather it is a falsified version, intentionally edited by the PA to mislead the court. The falsified document also conveniently omits Abbas’ confession to committing crimes.

Fortunately, president Trump has the wherewithal to acknowledge the ICC as just another useless arm of the useless UN.

https://www.israelhayom.com/opinions/the-icc-has-nothing-to-do-with-justice/

The International Criminal Court is not a court at all, but a political action agency of the United Nations whose goal is to defame countries it views as enemies.


Last week, US President Donald Trump signed an executive order authorizing sanctions and additional visa restrictions against any individuals who "have directly engaged in any effort by the ICC to investigate, arrest, detain, or prosecute any United States personnel without the consent of the United States" or have attempted to do the same against a US ally.

Once again, we see the interests of the United States and Israel align uniquely – this time because the ICC chooses to function not as an enforcer of international law, but as a political tool of our common enemies.

BLUF: IF true (I think as a layman) such a fraudulent submission to the ICC undermines the integrity of the court, and should be subject, at the very least, to sanctions under the rules of professional conduct outlined in the International Principles on Conduct for the Legal Profession (IPCLP). And the legal team having a hand in the submission should lose accreditation to practice before the court.

While the PA claims to have attached to its submission a translation of Abbas’ speech, Palestinian Media Watch has found that the document attached is not a transcription of the speech. Rather it is a falsified version, intentionally edited by the PA to mislead the court. The falsified document also conveniently omits Abbas’ confession to committing crimes.

(COMMENT)

IPCLP Rule #2: "Honesty, integrity and fairness ••• A lawyer shall at all times maintain the highest standards of honesty, integrity and fairness towards the lawyer’s clients, the court, colleagues and all those with whom the lawyer comes into professional contact."

• “Unconscionable” schemes to deceive or make misrepresentations through the court system.​

• Submission of fraudulent documents​

••• Trust in the legal profession requires that every member of the legal profession exemplifies personal integrity, honesty and fairness. A lawyer shall not knowingly make a false statement of fact or law in the course of representing a client or fail to correct a false statement of material fact or law previously made by the lawyer.

Just my thought...

Palestine seeks $100M loan from Arab League

'Arab states bear national responsibility to support steadfastness of Palestinian people,' says its envoy to Egypt - Anadolu Ajansı

Palestine's Ambassador to Egypt and permanent representative to the Arab League, Diab al-Louh, said Wednesday that Palestinian authorities formally requested the regional group provide a $100 million loan.

The request was submitted because of the financial crisis brought on by the interruption of clearance revenues with Israel.

"We submitted a request to the Arab Finance Council that payment be made as soon as Palestinian tax revenues are recovered from Israel, however, Palestine has not received a response yet," Voice of Palestine radio quoted al-Louh.


Hey, here's some interesting news. The "country of Pal'istan" had not received a response from the Arab League to a $100 million per month slush welfare fund ''safety net'' for the Pals. That's just, you know, racist or something. Maybe even Islamophobic.

"The Palestinian diplomat said his country's request "came after the Arab countries did not respond to the decisions of the successive Arab League sessions regarding providing an Arab safety network with the value of $100 million per month."

Palestinian mothers reportedly encouraged their daughters to be terrorists, via song, on a Palestinian TV channel, Palestinian Media Watch (PMW) wrote in a press release on Thursday.

The incident took place as part of a reenactment of the old bus ride from Jerusalem to Amman on official Palestinian Authority TV on June 2.

The participants were young girls and their mothers, who used the bus ride as an opportunity to teach their daughters about violence and terrorism through singing about it, according to the report by PMW.
