[ An Honor suicide ]

Yesterday, Israeli forces killed Ahmad Erekat, a nephew of PLO negotiator Saeb Erekat, as he appeared to purposefully swerve into an Israeli soldier at a checkpoint. The Erekat family is calling it a cold blooded execution:

In 2016, she told an American Muslims for Palestine (AMP) event that she only wants friendships and camaraderie with those who unequivocally support the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement. The BDS movement singles out Israel for political and economic isolation while ignoring other countries with far worse human rights records. The leaders of the BDS movement have said no Palestinian would ever accept Israel’s existence as a Jewish state.

Many have taken to social media to condemn Sarsour for promoting an event that excludes nearly all Jews. More than 90% of the world’s Jews consider themselves Zionists to varying degrees, in that they believe Israel has a right to and should exist as a Jewish state.

“*Open to all* (minus ~90% of Jewish people who are Zionists),” tweeted Israeli activist Hen Mazzig. “We won’t make this about us if you won’t. Stop it. This fight is too important for antisemites to abuse this way.”

“@lsarsour can’t even hold a rally against racism without expressing her own bigotry,” the group Democratic Majority for Israel wrote. “Her organization banned 95% of American Jews from an event they hosted.”

Who are the Racists?

Rashida Tlaib




U.S. Representative Rashida Tlaib told Detroit's top cop he should employ only black analyst to the department's facial recognition team because "non-African Americans think African-Americans all look the same."

In what may be the first known case of its kind, a faulty facial recognition match led to a Michigan man’s arrest for a crime he did not commit.

There's more islamo-bluster coming from the Abbas mini-caliphate. It amounts to all the usual, strident threats.

The usual theme coming from both the Hamas and Fatah mini-caliphates / dictatorships seems to follow a predictable script:
"We have matryrs (lots of disposable children we can throw onto the bonfire of Islam gee-had) willing to die.''

"We want to kill Jews''

"We will suffer.... (well, our minions will suffer), but we have lots of disposable minions.

PA senior official Jibril Rajoub:

• “If the [Israeli] decision to annex is made – you [Israel] are in a battle with Fatah, the Fatah of Jan. 1, 1965 (i.e., Fatah’s first terror attack against Israel)”
• We must turn Israel’s “life into hell”
• “There is general Palestinian agreement on popular resistance ‎at this stage, but we are prepared to move to another stage... If there will be an annexation, then we won’t suffer alone and we won’t die alone”
• “The time has come to fight this racist and fascist occupation. No one can tell us that [Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin] Netanyahu and his coalition are elected. Hitler and Mussolini were also elected! Go back to history and read it correctly! If [Netanyahu] turns now to annexation, I’m telling you, we will not wave a white flag, we won’t die alone, we won’t suffer alone”
• “We don't think that going to bloodshed at this stage [prior to annexation] serves our cause”

PA TV filler warns Israel:

• Response to annexation will be “with spirit and blood”

Michigan Rep. Rashida Tlaib left Detroit’s police chief outraged and insulted after a tour of his department’s new video surveillance facility — by telling him he should only hire black employees to be facial recognition analysts, a report said.

“I think non-African Americans think African Americans all look the same,” the freshman congresswoman told the city’s top cop, James Craig, during a tour of the department’s Public Safety Headquarters, the Detroit News reported.

(COMMENT)

It is not uncommon for an enforcement system to misidentify something in the performance of their duties. It was not a case of improper enforcement and it wasn't a case of intentional harm in the performance of their duties. The system made a mistake.

What is doing intentional harm is the outspoken idiots that are making a mountain out of a mold-hill.

Just my thought...

Most Respectfully,

Since there is no such thing as a Palistinian ,this point is moot.

Following a lecture given by Palestinian Media Watch director Itamar Marcus earlier this week to members of the European Parliament, during which he presented a new PMW report entitled “Two loopholes in European Union anti-terror funding laws,” MEPs called for scrutinizing EU’s funding to the PA and for an investigation of how EU money ends up going to Palestinian terror organizations.

European Parliamentarians have called for a thorough investigation into how European taxpayers’ money is ending up in the hands of Palestinian terrorists, insisting during a meeting on Tuesday that any loopholes in the law through which the money is slipping must be closed.

“It should absolutely not happen that European taxpayers’ money lead to attacks on Israel,” Dutch MEP Bert-Jan Ruissen said at a meeting in Brussels on Tuesday morning. He was joined by Swedish MEP Charlie Weimers, who said, “If and where loopholes exist in EU counter-terrorism financing legislation, they must be closed immediately.”


Both MEPs are members of parties who sit within the Conservative and Reformists Group in the European Parliament.

In civilized societies action should be taken against anyone who expresses the desire to commit murder. The Iranian government, Hamas, Hezbollah, various clerics, and other influential figures within the Muslim world, as well as neo-Nazis and other extreme rightists, openly proclaim their desire to commit murder or even genocide against Jews and Israel. Many in the Western world either refuse to heed these statements or actively support them. Many others relentlessly criticize Israel and remain completely silent about Palestinian promotion of the killing of Jews.

This tweet, the retweeters and those who “Liked” it, show as well as anything that Israel haters are just haters and have no ability to think beyond their bigotry.

Anti-racist protesters in Jerusalem crudely defaced the “Lloyd George Street” sign with a marker to change it to “Floyd George Street.”

A truly dumb Palestinian thought that the municipality of Jerusalem did this – and complained that they “misspelled” George Floyd’s name in Arabic.




OK, maybe Lena can be forgiven because she never heard of Lloyd George and didn’t notice the marker and white paint on the sign and doesn’t read Hebrew to realize that the “F” was obviously hand drawn.

But this stupidity got retweeted and “Liked” hundreds of times, including by the Jewishly illiterate Jewish Voice for Peace.

Finally, one person gently told Lena that she got it wrong but she was already on a rant so she redirected her anger from the Jerusalem municipality to the protester who obviously didn’t know Arabic and is therefore a disgusting Zionist who was Judaizing Jerusalem.

And the FACT is ,there is ,and never HAS been ,a "Palistine". After WW1 ,the British took over the Middle East from the Ottoman Empire. The Land ,East and West of the Jordan ,was occupied by Jews and Arabs. The ARABS got four fifths of that land ,now called Jordan. The Jews got one fifth. For some reason ,the British called it "Palistine" . With no historical concept whatever. And the "Palistinians" were actually the JEWS who lived there. It was actually a British protectorate ,not a Free nation. In 1948 , ISRAEL broke off from the British occupation. And THOSE are the FACTS. The Arabs have no claim to any of Israel.

When Britain named the British Mandate “palestine,” it had already been a common European Christian term, originating from a Roman name, “palaestina,” imposed on Jews in retribution for the Jewish Bar Kokhba Revolt. Romans had previously called the country Judea, signifying land of the Jews. Roman palaestina referred to Jews ancient Philistine enemies, of biblical fame, from the Greek world. A further slap at the Jews.

Yes.I know my own History. "Philistine" was a Aramaic word meaning invader. They were from Crete. After Israel trounced them ,they were annihilated by Sargon 2 of Assyria. They were in no way related to Arabs.

Why split hairs? It was the Latin word for the Aramaic word. Doesn't matter. Just because Hadrian had a hissy fit is no reason for the Brits to dig up THAT name. There never was ,is not ,and never WILL be ,a "Palistine".

The British didn‘t dig up the name palestine—It had already been a common European name since the Renaissance, when Latin-speaking European Christians “dug up” the Roman name palaestina imposed on Jews, anglicizing it into palestine. Christian Arabs even learned of the name and arabized it into filastin. However, had Jews not rebelled against the Romans, these names would not even exist today.

Still bogus. The Jews who LIVED there never called it that. There is no "Palistine" in the koran. There is no verse that the vile usurper Mohammad ever WENT to Jerusalem. The Ottoman Empire did not really emphasize that vile name. It was always "The Holy Land" to the Crusaders. The Byzantines called it The Holy Land. But it does not matter. There have never been ,are not ,and will never BE Palistinians. They are ARAB Terrorists. PERIOD. As far as Land? Before the 6 day war ,Gaza was owned by Egypt. West Bank was owned by Jordan.
