Sailing To End the Siege on Gaza

by shahid on August 18, 2008

It’s no surprise that those sailing to Gaza to break the blockade imposed by the lying, treacherous, murderous, oppressive, racist and Nazi-like regime in Israel have been threatened by the same. After all, this is the state that sinks US ships and yet still receives tax dollars from the families of those it murdered.

Israel is the world champion of lawlessness and hypocrisy, which in a world that includes the corrupt and duplicitous regimes in the USA and in the UK is saying something.

Like myself and millions of others, I am pleased to say that the citizens of any of the aforementioned nations do not necessarily subscribe to the murderous manifestos of their hell-bound elites. Take holocaust survivor Hedy Epstein, she’s actually on one of these boats. And she’s 84!

NICOSIA - The Free Gaza and Liberty, the ships seeking to break the Israeli siege of Gaza and its 1.5 million citizens, are on their way to Cyprus and are planning to set sail for the Strip this week.

The ships have been held up by gale force winds in the Mediterranean but the 40 peace activists signed on remain committed to the voyage in spite of the delay. In the meantime, some of the boat people have been receiving threatening phone calls on their mobile phones.

According to Lauren Booth, the sister-in-law of former British prime minister Tony Blair, about a dozen of these menacing messages have been received both on board the ships and in Nicosia, where the majority of the activists are currently based.

Some of the callers, text messages and answer messages speak of the ships being “blown up” or “destroyed, killing all on board”. More perniciously, said Booth, the menacing elements have been making calls to family members.

On the afternoon of August 14, an anonymous male caller rang her home in France and spoke to her husband as her two young daughters were playing hide and seek in the garden. This person told her husband that Booth was in “great danger. These ships will be blown up”.

Her husband asked how this caller had obtained her private number but received no answer. The threats continue. In a posting on the Free Gaza website, Booth asked: “Who is behind these phone calls? Who benefits by upsetting the families of those on board the Free Gaza and the Liberty? Who would wish to unsettle journalists aboard as unarmed ships set sail towards the waters around Gaza and almost certain interception by Israeli forces? The answer is clear. I will carry on bringing you reports from the waters around Greece, Cyprus and even Gaza.”

Greta Berlin, co-founder of the Free Gaza movement, said yesterday that the threats have deterred no one and have, in fact, made them more determined than ever to carry on with the mission.

On Friday, Holocaust survivor and boat person, Hedy Epstein of St. Louis, celebrated her 84th birthday.

America Run by Crazy Zionist Jews

by shahid on August 17, 2008

Actually, America is also heavily influenced by Crazy Zionist Christians, but it is currently Israel that America serves, only most Americans don’t know this.

You will see the heroic soldiers of the Israeli Occupation Force breaking the limbs of dangerous, stone-throwing children, who throw stones because their families are butchered and their land is occupied and they live in open concentration camps and nobody really cares.

A while back I worried whether I was being over the top when comparing Israel to the Nazis. I no longer see this as an untenable position, given that much more respected commentators, both American and even Israeli, use the same parallels.

1000 Palestinian Children Murdered

by shahid on August 8, 2008

Since 2000, over a thousand Palestinian children have been murdered by the Zionist occupation. Quite a few have been no more than ten years old, going to school when an Israeli Occupation Force bullet has been fired deliberately into the centre of their forehead.

Bereaved father, Bassam Aramin, talks about the true spirit of Islamic justice in heart-breaking eloquence:

They have killed our children, Hussam. What can we do but fight on? We will never lay down our arms. For despite the advanced military technology and deadly force that we face, it is we who posses the most dangerous weapons of all. These are the weapons of morality and justice. We will not surrender these in the face of brutality, and we will be steadfast in demanding justice for our children. Ahmed and Abir’s murderers must be judged and sentenced as criminals. Let me be clear: we do not seek revenge. Justice for our beloved, dead children will not be served by the murder of a young Israeli girl in front of her school, or by the murder of a young Israeli boy by a bullet to the head. We will refuse to mirror the violent means of the occupation. You and I, and every Palestinian, must let our morals and our humanity and the teachings of our great faith be our guides.

No Western media outlet talks about the scale of child murder in Palestine, because of the most negligent apathy and institutional racism it is possible to imagine. A kind of deliberate nudge-nudge-wink-wink blindness, hand-in-hand with their Jewist allies, against the Arab terrorist Mozlem scum of the earth who need to be ground into the dust under the jackboots of glorious ashkeNAZI defenders of the blood-soaked earth that was never really Israel.

In the meantime, the Hasbara parrots and their “Anglo-Saxon” admirers prolong the suffering by placing the blame firmly at the door of the people whose doors have been blasted in (along with the rest of their shack and resident family) in the concentration camp that is Gaza by a Zionist missile. In the meantime, only the brave few from the Western world (and occupied Palestine, i.e. Israelis) are brave enough to speak truth to evil.

The only reason the politicans and the mainstream media of the “Christian West” turns the other cheek is to turn a blind eye. After 60 years of hypocrisy and wilful negligence, patchy sight seems to be returning to some quarters of the media, if not our craven, shameless, lying, murdering, collaborating, fascist “leaders.”

What Holocaust?

by shahid on July 31, 2008

Palestinian boy's arm cut off by Jewish settlers

Palestinian boy's arm cut off by Jewish settlers

http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/video/2008/jul/30/beaumont.palestine

Start by having a look at the above video. A lot of us have seen some of this footage before. (I saw the illegal settler child spitting at the caged Palestinian woman last year, as did many others).

What gives this footage power now is that it is featured in the Guardian. This is a shift. I’m not sure I’m smart enough to figure out why it’s suddenly OK to show the Israeli occupation for the  murderers-with-no-connection-to-the-holocaust that they are, but if more people in the UK can wake up to what’s been going on since the nakbah of 1948, then perhaps we are witnessing the birth of a genuinely unified movement against the oppression of the murderous Zionist regime, in the same way that the anti-apartheid movement of the ’80s and early ’90s built up steam to become a truly global phenomenon.

That movement achieved success through a serious of crippling boycotts against South African business directly, and those that did business with the Apartheid regime indirectly. It’s much harder to achieve the same result now that the economies of the world are so inter-dependent and particularly when the Zionist-controlled USA is so ready to kill more if its children (in illegal wars that serve Zionist interests) and bankrupt more of its people (to fund the illegal wars that serve Zionist interests) to support Israel.

I often wonder why the truth of the holocaust visited on the Palestinians over 60 years is so ignored by the media here and I can only think of a few things actually:

1. They actually don’t think that the Palestinians are worth as much as the  Zionist terrorists. We’ve already heard our own Zionist embarrassment Maureen (Oberst) Lipman confess to as much and not be pulled up on it. Here’s what she said in  2006 in case you’ve forgotten:

“What’s proportion got to do with it? It’ s not about proportion is it? Human life is not cheap to the Israelis. And human life on the other side is quite cheap actually because they strap bombs to people and send them to blow themselves up”.

2. They are embarrassed about the fact that the state of Israel was founded by repeated acts of terrorism and that Britain (King David Hotel) cravenly caved in. So suddenly, a land with people (Arab Palestine) was purged of those people (ethnic cleansing) through the agency of Zionist terror gangs (stormtroopers, terrorists) and replaced with Jews. A land was taken away from its people by a third party and given to another. Imagine of America decided to give Britain away to the Gypsies.

3. They hate Palestinians and Arabs and Muslims. This is obvious from the blatant bias towards the terrorist state of Israel for several decades and the constant rewriting of history to present the Israelis as perpetual victims, living in the shadow of another holocaust, despite being the most heavily armed (NUKES!) country in the Middle East. All the while, ignoring the actual holocaust that continues to this day.

4. They created this mess and for that reason, they have to carry on lying and can never accept that they’re wrong. Even if it means collusion in genocide. What holocaust? Who said “Balfour”?

It’s a shocking conclusion. Only racism and hatred, concealed by weasel words and self-assuring chicanery can produce such a distorted picture of the reality of the holocaust in Palestine. Decade in, decade out, same old same old. And it works. Most people in this country think that the illegal settlers are Palestinians!

it goes right to the top. Our Prime Minister, Gordon BrNWO, surely not an uneducated man got to address the Knesset, on his knees. How embarrassing that he is our country’s representative. How embarrassing that such a holocaust-denying racist Zionist can ignore the wholesale theft and disaster of the last 60 years. He only speaks for hateful racists, not for decent people who care about the truth. (Whose side are you on?)

Only racism, hatred and sheer evil can explain the unprecedented bias displayed by our media and our leaders.
