Welcome to Israel: “I’m sorry but we had to blow up your laptop. “

Link




A former US official sent this with disgust:


"A friend of my son's friend went to Israel yesterday via Taba. They detained her then shot 3 holes in her laptop, saying they thought it might be dangerous. Not that it should matter, but she's not an activist or journalist, she works with refugees in Cairo..."



".... I went inside to check on my bag. I had left it unattended, where they instructed. It was still there so I went back outside.
Moments later a man came outside and introduced himself as the manager on duty. And then, “I’m sorry but we had to blow up your laptop. “
What….all my client case notes and testimony, writing, pictures, music and applications. Years of work. NO!!!! What?? Are you insane?? What were you thinking? THAT’S ALL MY WORK!?
After much yelling, crying and frantic phone dialing (don’t be alarmed if I called you repeatedly this morning), he took me outside to see the wreckage. It turned out it hadn’t been quite blown up, but rather shot through with three bullets. We were able to extract the hard drive, seemingly unscaved. Thank goodness…
Security had never asked for my password. Was it my peeling Arabic stickers on the keyboard? Or something else during the questioning which set them off?
Toward the beginning of the search an officer began clicking through the photos on my camera. She froze on a picture of graffiti, which read “Fuck” scrawled next to the Jewish star of David. “Why do you have this picture?” She asked me rather aggressively. “Because I was disturbed by it too,” I answered. She didn’t press the subject but continued clicking…presumably looking at pictures from a photo exhibit about Israel’s January attack of Gaza.
Though I usually delete all my pictures when uploading, unluckily I had clicked save rather than delete when uploading this set and never got around to manually deleting on my camera. Whoops…
Among other suspicious item; an Arabic phrasebook, a journal entry that mentioned a Palestinian(yes, they even flipped through my journal), stamps from Syria, Qatar and the UAE, Palestinians in Palestine guidebook, and a map a friend had drawn with a main street in Jerusalem, the central bus station and my intended hostel. “Who are you meeting there?” They asked me.
Anyway I am in Jerusalem. Years of my life and my RLAP work is not destroyed. *sigh*. Insha’allah I will like Israel better tomorrow…."

In light of the rise of Jewish fundamentalism Arabs are in dire need of a thorough Referendum, the main character, the state of Israel

Link

Salim Nazzal

The disgusting view of the fundamentalist Jewish colonizer driving his car several times over the Palestinian young man Wasim muwasada has invoked extreme rage among Palestinians.

The criminal event is not an isolated event because the “defense” Israeli army was watching the dreadful act without any attempt to hinder it, and also because such crimes have become a normal thing in the Jewish religious culture towards Palestinians. For Palestinians the Zionist Jewish culture of baby killing and extreme brutality is not the act of a fanatic person, but, rather, the product of a culture based on murder and violence. The cultural mind which allowed, justified and instructed the murder of Palestinian children and pregnant woman in Deir Yasin in 1948 is the same cultural mind which permitted the murder Palestinian babies in 2009.


The Palestinian writer Saleh Al Naame raised the issue of the increasing influence and power of the fundamentalist Rabbis in the Israeli society and their role in legitimizing the violent acts religious justification which became an ideological instrument in the hands of the fundamental Jews. According to Al Naame, the most dangerous religious options those opinions issued at 06.03.2008 signed by a number of senior Jewish rabbis of the so called (Association Rabbis for the land of Israel) led by Rabbi Dove Loir ,which permitted the Israeli army to shell Palestinian communities without discrimination. According to this opinion, Jewish law permits the bombing of civilian’s population of the land of Palestine.

Such religious opinions are not the sole work of fanatical rabbis as it is sometimes portrayed. According Al Jazeera net a senior rabbi has recently issued a religious obligation calling Jewish colonizers to poison the well of the Palestinian villagers and to cut their trees as if 62 years of Zionist “secular” brutality is not satisfying fanatical Jews .

Apparently, this phenomenon expresses deep crisis in the Zionist society which realize more and more that it has been constructed in the wrong place. Early Zionists from the war lord Ben Gorion generation thought that the cleansing of Palestine “victory” is enough to establish a reality the region will accept sooner or later. But the region resisted and the Israeli promise to each generation that this each war will be the last war was groundless and the reality is, each war planted the seeds of the next war. Today, most signs indicate that the trend of Resistance against the Apartheid state of Israel is getting stronger and the war in Lebanon 2006, in Gaza 2009 has undoubtedly demythised the Israeli army and proved that it is not much difficult to break down this army towards dissolving the Zionist colonial project in later periods.

The question is why the fundamentalist Jewish phenomenon appeared now and not earlier?

Let me first mention that most observers tend to view the fundamentalist phenomenon as a new thing in the state of Israel widely believed to have been established on secular basis. The historical truth shows that despite that the Zionist founders were mostly non religious or atheists they exploited the Jewish religious tradition to bring more Jews to Palestine. Ben Gorien who was atheist used the appeasement policy towards religious Jews and for this aim he imposed certain religious regulations on the Israeli institutions. Therefore the phenomenon was there in its potentiality and when the periods of victories was over after the1973 war, the tendency towards religious fanatism and ultra rightedness thinking began to emerge and to get strong with time. The Israeli election in 1977 which brought the right wing and religious parties into power in the state of Israel marks the beginning of the rise of Jewish fundamentalism .

In my view there are three major interrelated reasons which might explain the increasing crisis in the Zionist project appeared now and not earlier. However, for the sake of clarity and methodology I call the first reason the Israeli factor, the second , the Palestinian factor, and the third , the international factor. The First factor is related to the first waves of the Zionist pioneers arrived to Palestine and having god deal of enthusiasm and idealism which was reflected upon positively in the Zionist society. But, as this generation vanishes, and as the new generation found itself in endless wars, it is not unnatural thing that new generation of Israelis taught that Israel was founded to escape persecution in Europe will began to wonder about the point of the state when the reason of its foundation vanishes.

The logical reasoning is, if Israel was founded on the base of oppression in Europe, if the reason do not exist any longer why should the Zionist state stays in the region? The existential questions about the whole point of the Zionist project began to be uttered not only from key zionist pioneers such as Dove Yermiya who declared the death of Zionism (I shall not be loyal to the Jewish fascist state and its mad visions, that I shall not sing anymore its national anthem) .And senior politicians like the Knesset former leader Abraham Borg who compares between the Nazi state and the Zionist state, but also from second degree intellectuals and literate class.

The picture could be clearer if we view the signs of fatigues in the zionist society such the severe socio economical and cultural problems, the gradual increasing of hopelessness in the future of the state, the spread of corruption, the Mafiazation of the Zionist society, the increasing level of crimes which reached a red line as described by the Knesset, the division between the religious strata concentrated in Jerusalem and the colonies and the secular strata concentrated in and around Tel Aviv, and most importantly , the fact that Israel has no future except the future of war.

The Palestinian factor in my view is the decisive factor. I intentionally put it in the middle because it is the factor which links between the first factor and the third factor.

The importance of this factor can be summarized in one word, Resitance.It does not mean that the Palestinian resistance was always successful or effective for reasons beyond the aim of this paper, but the actual and potential Palestinian and Arab resistance has been always the nightmare of the Zionists. Without this resistance a number of the factors which weakening the state of Israel would not even exist.
The importantance of the international factor derives from the fact that Israel heavily depended and still on the western support. And managed in the past to market itself and succeeded to conceal its crimes through decades. The old Israel which marketed itself to the western world as “oases for democracy” in the region has become known in the world as a factory of industrializing death for Palestinians, in addition that great secular circles in Europe which sympathized in the past with Israel on secular basis began to show its concern towards the rise of fundamentalism in the Zionist society.

Today, the picture of Israeli soldiers with the blood of Palestinian babies on their hands has become known throughout the world. Zionist Jews know very well that lies are not working any longer, this which explains their Paranoia that (the whole world stands against Jews!!!) They know very well that the game of (the oppressed Jew!!!) is over, and the time the world listening to the voice of the Palestinian victims has surely come. Today Israel is the most condemned state on earth in the UN and among the human right organizations. But there should be no mistake, without the Palestinian Resistance the Palestinian voice would not have been heard. Therefore the relative change in the western public is not due to writings and lectures here and there, but mostly due to the thousands of brave Palestinian men and woman who paid their lives for the freedom of Palestine ,and the thousands of the murdered Palestinian babies who Zionist deprived them the right to live and to grow up.

Bearing in mind the increasing Jewish brutality, present day Palestinian ask the same question their parents asked before.

Have Israeli, Zionists, Jews or whatever they call themselves, not realized that the more they murder the more they are rejected, the more they cause suffering to Palestinians and Arabs the more they enlarge and consolidate the sentiments of revenge and consequently the less chance for their artificial state to stay in the region. Do Zionist Jews, as their past and current history demonstrates, think they become safer in defying and challenging and threatening the whole region? It also invokes the same question Palestinians ever asked since the arrival of the Zionist colonizers to Palestine, how Palestinians could live side by side a culture imported from the ghettoes of east Europe arsenal storage of hate towards Europe which they claim to escape from, and towards the Islamic world which they agitate Europe against.

The questions above are repeatedly asked because it is apparent that the concept of peace for Palestinians, Arabs, Muslims and the vast majority of the world differ than the Zionist concept of peace. (Except for the US which pro Israel Jews dominate its policy and Macrosina which no one heard about)? Zionists use very often the term peace void of any political perspective as peace has no affiliation with life, land, rights, culture etc. And if there is a peace based on justice and mutual respect, and there is peace of deceit it is apparent that Israel chooses the peace of deceit... Peace and justice are seen by sociologist as an equation for stability in the same society or in the world. For that reason, sociologists of different sociological schools explain great deal of the domestic and international tensions, including the civil wars and instabilities in the absence of social, political and cultural justice to include the various interpretations. Therefore we perhaps need to remember the wise words said by a native American who told his grandson that there are two wolves fighting inside humans, the wolf of fear and hate, and the wolf of love and peace.' The grandson listened, then looked up at his grandfather and asked, 'Which one will win?' The grandfather replied, 'The one we feed.'
Bringing examples from daily life the picture might be clearer.

In some neighborhoods if a family wants to move into a new neighborhood the responsible committee of that neighborhood would check the history of those moving in because they do not want people with criminal past to destroy their neighbouthood. If this is applied on individuals what to say about the Zionist case, Palestine got a group of a racists which produced a great deal of hate and prejudice towards the peoples of the original countries they come from, and moved to impose itself on a region they do not belong to, and challenging the whole region on all levels .

Today it is apparent the hopes of finding a solution to the conflict are evaporating and the reason is the Zionist state.

The ultra right government decided that any future withdrawl from the occupied areas in the land of Palestine be endorsed by the Knesset which is a step to escape withdrawal from the land of Palestine. This conveys for the million times a message to those believe in a possible peace with Zionists that they need to review their positions because 18 years of time wasting is enough.

Palestinians and Arabs must answer this step by calling for an Arab referendum about the future of the state of Israel in the region.

Palestinians and Arabs have a strong argument that they are the victims of the foundation of this state and thusly they have the right to decide their future. This referendum can be justified on democratic and moral basis. The region has been moving from war to war since the foundation of the Zionist state and the result is the spread of militarization, fanatism, poverty, instability, the east west conflicts, and, considering the advancement of arms which Israel brought to the region, the future wars will be more devasting. This referendum is important because the state of Israel is the only reason for wars in the region and thusly the vanishing of this state will end these wars. Even if the referendum has a symbolic value but it will carry a message to the world that the Zionist state is not welcomed in the Arab neighborhood. Palestinian and Arabs must articulate clearly that nobody wish to allow criminals to destroy their neighborhood.

This will be a step towards delegalizing the Zionist state in the road towards ending the wars and conflicts and promoting the culture of development, tolerance and peace.

PLFP calls for forming united resistance front to respond to Israel’s crimes




PIC

[ 13/12/2009 - 01:05 PM ]

GAZA, (PIC)-- The popular front for the liberation of Palestine (PLFP) on Saturday called for instantly forming a united resistance front to retaliate to Israel’s ongoing crimes against the Palestinian people.

In a speech on the 42nd anniversary of the front’s inception, Rabah Muhanna, a member of the PLFP political bureau, said that the nature of the Israeli occupation is fascist and cannot be confronted by any options except the armed resistance

Muhanna stressed in another context that the PFLP would strictly address the suppression of democratic freedoms and would not propitiate any side.

In retaliation to the crimes committed by Israel and its settlers against the Palestinian people, the Brigades of Abu Ali Mustafa, the armed wing of the PFLP, claimed responsibility for firing 19 homemade rockets at dawn Sunday on the settlements of Kissufim, Majdal, Sderot, Azata, Nahal Oz, and Neir Oz as well as the areas of Negev and Sofa.

Israeli Cabinet Okays Millions of Dollars in 'Aid' to Settlements



Almanar

13/12/2009 The Israeli cabinet Sunday approved listing some settlements in the occupied West Bank as "national priority zones," entitling the communities to millions of dollars of extra state funding.

The decision is certain to stir furor as it comes just weeks after Israel instituted a 10-month moratorium on new building permits in the settlements after months of US pressure.

The cabinet voted to approve a proposal to include settlements in the list of communities designated as national priority zones, which entitles them to credits worth 41 million dollars (28 million euros), an Israeli government official told AFP.

The cabinet had been expected to approve the proposal during its morning session, but put off the vote amid disagreements over which communities inside the occupied territories should be included on the list.

In its vote, the cabinet also decided to create a commission that will decide within 30 days on whether to include Askhelon and other communities on the list, the official said.

The new credits will benefit 110,000 settlers and can be used for vocational training programs and other educational or cultural activities.

Earlier in the day, Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's Likud party told public radio that the move was aimed at expressing support for settlements amid the moratorium. "With this, we want to send a message (to the settlers) that we understand their difficulties and want to support them," the minister told public radio.

The European Union on Friday expressed concern over the plan and said it would consult its partners in the Middle East Quartet over the move. "Coordination with the Quartet I think is called for in view of the serious nature of such a move," Swedish Foreign Minister Carl Bildt, whose country holds the EU's rotating presidency, said on Friday. "If I understand it rightly, it is a rather serious step," he said. "If that is the decision that will be taken by the Israeli government, we will most certainly express our views on it."

Mishsal in Iran at head of a delegation

[ 13/12/2009 - 09:31 AM ]

TEHRAN, (PIC)-- Khaled Mishaal, the political bureau chairman of Hamas, arrived in Tehran at dawn Sunday at the head of a senior-level delegation for talks on Palestinian developments.

Medics: Israeli fire kills Gaza man

Link

Gaza – Ma'an – Israeli shelling killed a Palestinian civilian in the central Gaza Strip on Saturday, a medical official said. The victim was identified as Sami Shihadah Abu Khousah, 47.

Muawiyah Hassanein, de facto Health Ministry director of ambulance and emergency services, told Ma'an that Khousah suffered blood loss after he was struck by Israeli artillery east of Al-Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza. Khousah was transferred from Shuhada Al-Aqsa Hospital in Deir Al-Balah to Ash-Shifa Hospital in Gaza City, where he died, Hassanein said.

Palestinian eyewitnesses reported clashes in the area where Khousah was injured. They said Palestinian fighters exchanged fire with the Israeli military, which fired artillery shells. Israel's army confirmed involvement.

A military spokeswoman told Ma'an that Palestinians first opened fire near the border with Israel, and that Israeli forces returned fire toward its source. The official said she was unaware of any casualties on the Palestinian side. No Israeli soldiers were injured during the clashes, she added. Meanwhile, the military wing of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) claimed responsibility for firing a rocket-propelled grenade at Israeli forces operating in northern Gaza. An Israeli military official said she was not familiar with that incident.

Oghlu: World must intervene to check Israeli violation of international law


[ 13/12/2009 - 09:28 AM ]

ISTANBUL, (PIC)-- Kamaludin Ehsan Oghlu, the secretary general of the Organization of Islamic conference (OIC), has condemned the Jewish settlers' arson attack on the Yasuf village mosque in the West Bank district of Salfit.

Oghlu said in a statement on Saturday that desecrating the mosque, burning copies of the holy Quran, and writing racist slogans on its walls against Islam and Muslims is an outright attack on sanctity of holy shrines.

He said that the world community should intervene to force Israel to halt its aggressions and to abide by the international law and the fourth Geneva Convention.

Jewish settlers at dawn Friday broke their way into the mosque, spilt petrol and started fire after writing racist remarks on its walls.

Meir Dagan, is the "tailwind" carrying Netanyahu toward an Iran strike ...

Yedioth's Ronen Bergman in Newsweek/ here

"..... His propensity for solving problems by force continued even after he retired from the military. He was leading a task force on terrorist financing in 2001 when his men told him they had discovered a European bank being used to channel money from Iran to Hamas. "We have the address, no?" Dagan asked his intel officers, according to a participant in the meeting, who asked not to be named for fear of angering Dagan. "Burn it down!" The horrified intelligence officers stalked out of the room in protest.....
The Israeli government's single-minded focus on Tehran has caused friction with the Obama administration, ...... the threat of a unilateral Israeli attack remains on the table—and while that threat may give the Americans leverage in talks with Tehran, an actual attack might well invite Iranian retaliation against U.S. forces in the Middle East and South Asia.
Dagan is not arguing for a quick strike. In fact, he recently pushed back to 2014 his estimate of the date when the Islamic Republic might have the means to build and launch nuclear weapons. But his uncompromising focus on Iran at the least reinforces Netanyahu's hawkish bent. One French intelligence officer, who didn't want to be identified discussing internal Israeli politics, describes Dagan as a "tailwind" carrying Netanyahu toward military action. .... Netanyahu occasionally travels to Dagan's office for briefings, rather than the other way around.
That kind of favoritism has irked rivals in Israel's intel establishment. They argue that his focus on Iran has led to a diversion of resources from more immediate threats. "Why is Iran more dangerous than Syria?" asks one Military Intelligence officer, who did not want to be identified criticizing Dagan. "[Syria] has an enormous army on Israel's border, and chemical weapons that could destroy this country." Some Israeli strategists argue that Damascus should be more aggressively courted, in an effort to encourage President Bashar al-Assad to sever his ties to Tehran. Dagan, on the other hand, holds that peace talks with Assad's regime are a waste of time as long as Iran remains Syria's dominant partner.

World Needs More Like Him

Love this story. A man in Switzerland was so outraged that the government passed a law banning the Minaret on top of Mosques, that he decided to build one himself. He did so by extending his chimney and turning it into a "minaret." Now, here's the "awe bless him" moment, the guy is not Muslim, but he did this anyway to protest his government's actions and to send a message of peace to Muslims. Like I said, the world needs more like him:
link A Swiss businessman has built a minaret on his company building in protest of his fellow citizens’ recent referendum decision to ban minarets.

Guillaume Morand, who is not a Muslim, was disgusted by the decision and decided to extend a pre-existing chimney, turning it into a mock minaret. "It was scandalous that the Swiss voted for the ban. Now we have the support of all the far-right
parties across Europe. This is shameful," he said. Mr. Morand put up the minaret
on Tuesday not only to protest the decision but also to send a message of peace.

The recent referendum results came as a surprise to those who had been following
the developments in the situation; opinion polls released just before the
official vote predicted that the motion would fail. However, it passed with 57%
of voters approving the right-wing motion to ban the construction of minarets.

Members of the far-right Swiss People’s Party were responsible for bringing the
issue to a public vote. Their actions were praised by other right-wing parties
across Europe. Mr. Morand believes that Switzerland’s other political parties
are at fault for the ban, for they did not do enough to campaign against the
motion. "They were all against it but they did not explain the issue clearly to
the country," he said.

Jibril: The Egyptian paper is the resistance’s instrument of surrender


[ 13/12/2009 - 09:27 AM ]

DAMASCUS, (PIC)- Ahmed Jibril, the secretary-general of the popular front for the liberation of Palestine – general command (PFLP-GC), stated Saturday that the signing of the Egyptian reconciliation paper with its current form would be the Palestinian resistance’s instrument of surrender.

During a live show on Al-Jazeera satellite channel, Jibril said that the signing of the Egyptian paper would only serve the political agenda of Mahmoud Abbas against the Palestinian resistance, affirming that the conflict is between two different platforms.

The PFLP-GC leader stressed that the Palestinian resistance factions were expecting Abbas, after the Israeli war on the Gaza Strip and the election of Israeli right-wing leaders, to reconsider his agenda and call for rebuilding the Palestine liberation organization (PLO), but he did not change his policies.

On the ground, a large number of Abbas’s militia men raided Saturday evening the village of Saida, north of Tulkarem, and stormed and ransacked dozens of homes before kidnapping 20 Palestinian citizens including school students thought to be affiliated with Hamas.

Local sources told the Palestinian information center (PIC), that dozens of Abbas’s militia men boarding military vehicles invaded the village in a way more brutal than the Israeli incursions and started to deploy in the streets cursing and pushing citizens, and breaking into homes.

The sources said that this raid is part of a wider campaign carried out all over the West Bank, where hundreds of Palestinian citizens received summonses from Abbas’s security apparatuses.

In the same context, Abbas’s preventive security and intelligence apparatuses in Tulkarem summoned more than 50 Palestinian citizens on Saturday and Sunday and detained them all day before releasing them and asking them to return the other day.

Some of those released said that they were detained until night without any questioning.

For its part, Omamah website reported Sunday that Abbas’s militias kidnapped five Palestinian Hamas members during the past two days in the districts of Tulkarem, Nablus and Bethlehem.

The Movement of Hamas had said that Abbas’s militias stepped up their campaigns against its cadres in the West Bank in conjunction with the 22nd anniversary of its inception.
