'Lone Wolf' car and tractor rammings show it's time to bring back old British methods against Arab terror

The mass media have made a lot of Israel's rescinded decision not to allow Arabs on buses going into Judea and Samaria. It is a pity this has been rescinded as attacks on Jews are becoming a daily event now.
The mass media of course has totally ignored an Arab's car ramming attack on police officers in Jerusalem however.

It seems that the latest terror attack in Jerusalem was made by a cousin of the Mercaz Harav terrorist.
Thankfully the two officers he rammed with his car were only lightly injured and have already been released from hospital.

The terrorist is dead, and hopefully Israel's security forces will not try too hard in future to arrest these killers, but despatch them with all due haste towards their Islamic virgin studded heaven.

Simply making sure the would be killers do not survive to serve a couple of years in prison before being released to commit more murder and mayhem is not enough however.

Britain's policy of making villages and families responsible for the actions of their family members brought an end to the 1936-39 orgy of murder that was the 'Arab Revolt'.

Britain then understood that family ties are important, and that family and tribal pressure works.

Whilst the Palestinian Authority incites the murder of Jews on its mass media, and pay stipends pro rata as to how serious the terror attack was, Israel needs to begin to put pressure on families.

As we see here, it is not collective punishment when a family or village is involved in terror, supports it, and praises the family member involved.

Britain used harsh measures in the 1930's which are maybe not to be used today, but a family whose member has just attacked Jews for no other reason than their religion need to find their house disappears in a cloud of dust.

There can be no doubt that the British concentrated presence and the persistence that accompanied it in the Palestinian theatre had exhausted the rebels, who, with their leadership, no longer really knew who they were fighting against or why. At one moment the leadership would talk of traditional friendship and common interests with Britain, at another went so far as to agree to the granting of autonomy to the Jews in the areas where they were settled. There can be no doubt that the vacillation of the leadership, and its inability to determine a clear objective to fight for, played its part in weakening the revolt...

...The best estimate of Arab human losses in the 1936-39 revolt is that which states that losses in the four years totaled 19,792 killed and wounded; this includes the casualties sustained by the Palestinian Arabs at the hands of the Zionist gangs in the same period.

This estimate is based on the first conservative admissions contained in official British reports, checked against other documents.102 These calculations establish that 1200 Arabs were killed in 1936. 120 in 1937, 1200 in 1938 and 1200 in 1939. In addition 112 Arabs were executed and 1200 killed in various terrorist operations. This makes the total of Arabs killed in the 1936-39 revolt, 5,032, while 14,760 were wounded in the same period.

Detainees numbered about 816 in 1937, 2,463 in 1938, and approximately 5,679 in 1939.The real significance of these figures can be shown by comparisons. In relation to numbers of inhabitants, Palestinian losses in 1936-39 are equivalent to losses by Britain of 200,000 killed, 600,000 wounded and 1,224,000 arrested. In the case of America the losses would be one million killed, 3 million wounded and 6,120,000 arrested!

Israel can not continue to live with Arabs deciding continually to wreak mayhem with cars and tractors  on Israel's streets. Everyone has a right to go about their business in safety and security, whether Arab or Jew.

If some Arabs decide to put their hatred into practise, they must know that not only will they not survive, but that their family will at the very least also need rehousing.

It is time that Israel demanded that very basic human right for its own citizens, of the right to life, to not be maimed and killed in the increasing number of Arab terror attacks.

It is time Israel put the human rights of its own citizens above those of a braying Arab enemy, murdering yet running to the international community at the first sign that Israel defends itself.

Israel must prepare for the condemnations that will inevitably follow and remind Arab terrorists and their families of some old facts about deterrence, facts that every Arab family already understands, as families being responsible for the acts of their members is what is practised in Arab culture since time immemorial.

Israel must protect its citizens. Harsh measures are essential if the terror is to stop.

Israel's Ethiopian Jews refuse to adopt victimhood politics and violence

The Ethiopian community in Israel is to be congratulated for refusing yesterday to take the example of many in the community of black people in the United States, where 30% of black males have at one time or another been in prison (1 in 12 presently), and where throughout a lifetime, a black male has a 1 in 21 chance of dying violently.

Israel is not the USA with Black people in Israel not having the same sorry history as Black people in the USA. Ethiopian Jews were not brought to Israel as slaves, but as free men and women in order to fulfill their zionist aspirations, to save their lives. They were brought out of love and not hatred or of any intention to humiliate or discriminate against them. 

Israel put many of its citizens in harms way by sending its armed forces and civilians into extremely anti-Israel Sudan and Ethiopia in order to rescue the Ethiopian Jews from starvation that killed hundreds of thousands of people.

Every society has its problems and Israel is not an exception, but racism has not, and will not define the relations between black and white communities as it has done in Europe and the USA. Ethiopian Jews were not rescued and brought to Israel in order to be discriminated against and those who are undoubtedly suffering now and have not yet succeeded in society must realise that. They need help so that they too can succeed in Israel. Much is done by the State within its limited budget and with the bringing of this issue to the fore, much more will hopefully happen to raise this community up.

Israel is not such a country in decline and Ethiopian Jews are also not seldom successful in Israel, and will undoubtedly continue to succeed. There are senior officers in the IDF, scientists and doctors among the community. For example the head of the IDF intervention team in Nepal was an Ethiopian Jewish doctor Dr. Avi Yitzchak. All is not doom and gloom.

Ethiopian Jews at yesterday's demonstration cleaerly showed that the violence seen in Baltimore and Ferguson is not the example they want to follow. Looting and destruction is the hallmark of a society in decline and offers no hope for those who use it. Ethiopian Jews are protesting for their future success, not in order to destroy the efforts of those who have already succeeded before them.

The promotion of victimhood and violence is alien to Israel, and thankfully even the Ethiopian demonstrators who split off from the peaceful demonstration to seek confrontation were open to reason and eventually returned to demonstrate peacefully.

The destructive Malcolm X / Black Panther style promotion of victimhood and fomenting of hatred is all to easy. It is a reverse racism, as ugly as the phenomenon it purports to condemn, and Israel last night rejected it. Thankfully the Ethiopian Jews of Israel will not be seduced by hate and destruction.

Enemies of Jews have never worried about whether that Jew is black or white, Sephardi or Ashkenazi. Being a Jew suffices, and Israel's wise leaders realise that, and condemned the police who sparked off the demonstrations.

The rabbis talked of Sinat Chinam (Unjustified/unreasonable/unreasoning hatreds and the destruction of the Temple and warned against those who are determined to feed off a cynical nursing of a sense of victimhood.

Ethiopian Jews refuse to be used as the vanguard in a new attempt to split the Jewish nation apart.

They did not come to Israel in order to be instrumental in its demise, but to build it along with Sephardi and Asheknazi Jews who returned home at an earlier date.

The EU and George Tsoros sponsored anarchists in Israel surely suffered a great defeat last night. As with the cost of living protests a couple of years ago, Israel's enemies fish in troubled waters but Israel is stronger and its people will not be corralled into the self-destructive behaviour seen abroad that Israel's enemies would have it do.

Egypt needs less meddling by Shariah Compliant Obama

Whilst the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt during President Morsy's democratic government was in power these scenes were repeated throughout Egypt. Obama's response was to send Morsy Apache helicopters, Abrams tanks and F16s.

The Obama administration that lifted sanctions on Burma which then went on to murder thousands of Kachin Christians in an ongoing genocide has a soft spot for murderous Muslim Brotherhood regimes.
Not for nothing was Mohamed Elbiary who is a member of the MB made a director of Homeland Security in the US. The US security agencies are riddled by extremist muslims placed there by Obama's cronies. Elbiary famously declared the USA to be an 'Islamic country', shariah compliant.

Nobody can be happy at countries where the respect for human rights is so low that people are sentenced to death in batches. But this is the reality of the arab world, where if your regime is not ruthless it will not survive.

Obama did not make one protest to deposed ex-President Morsy at the mass murders of innocents in Tahrir Square and throughout Egypt whilst he was in charge. Morsy's salafist thugs cruised around cities arresting those they thought were contravening shariah law. They made sure such persons were never seen again.
Morsy's men murdered people of the tiny Shia community and Coptic Christians alike. Coptic young women have for years been kidnapped, forcibly converted to islam and 'married' off to salafists.

Christians human rights throughout the world have as usual been ignored by the Obama administration, whether in Pakistan or Indonesia, just as the murder of Jews by islamic terrorists in France was described simply as "some random folks" by Obama.

There is a worrying pattern of this President's interference or at times silence in Arab countries whilst lambasting the Jewish State at every opportunity. Obama wished to tie the American horse to sunni islamists notable Turkey and Egypt allied to Iranian interests, but when that fell apart with Morsy's overthrow, and Turkey's incresing isolation, Obama increasingly has decided to throw the USA into Iran's orbit.  It is only in these terms that Obama's desperation to get a nuclear deal from Iran, any deal can be explained.


After all the Obama administration has done to destabilize the Middle East and Asia, it's a good idea if the Arabs are left to get on with their gruesome tasks. Sadly it is in all our interests, even if not in Obama's.

Egypt and its backer Saudi Arabia realize that the alternative to mercilessly crushing the Muslim Brotherhood is to face another mass breakout from prisons in future and the collapse of Egypt and other Arab states.

However hateful are the remaining arab regimes not yet involved in the maelstrom Obama unleashed by effectively deposing Mubarak, at least they offer some semblance of order in relation to the Iran and Sunni terrorist inspired chaos now ruling in Iraq, Syria and Yemen.

We may be disgusted but Arab dictators know their work. For the near future brutal and despotic Arab regimes are the only game in town. The alternative is a further meltdown, millions more refugees along with mass death being the result.

And Obama will be gone soon, but not before his wrongheaded policies have wreaked even more devastation upon the Middle East and the world.

The United States said it was “deeply concerned” about former Egyptian president Mohammed Morsi’s death sentence Sunday, joining a growing list of countries and international groups who have condemned Saturday’s court decision to execute the former leader.

Judge Shaaban el-Shami sentence Morsi and over 100 others to death Saturday over a mass prison break during the 2011 uprising that toppled Hosni Mubarak and later brought Islamists to power for the first time in Egypt.

Before a death penalty decision can be finalized against Morsi or the over 100 other defendants included in El-Shami’s decision, however, the case must be reviewed by Grand Mufti of Egypt Shawki Ibrahim Abdel-Karim Allam, according to Egyptian law.

Though the decision is not yet final, the ruling has drawn a chorus of international condemnation, joining Washington, Hamas and a host of others in opposition to the execution.

“We are deeply concerned by yet another mass death sentence handed down by an Egyptian court to more than 100 defendants, including former President Morsi,” a State Department official told Reuters Saturday.

“We have consistently spoken out against the practice of mass trials and sentences, which are conducted in a manner that is inconsistent with Egypt‘s international obligations and the rule of law,” a State Department official told AFP.

Noting that they were preliminary sentences, the official added: “We continue to stress the need for due process and individualized judicial processes for all Egyptians in the interests of justice.”

The ruling applies to 120 people in total, including 70 Palestinians, and is the latest in a series of mass death sentences handed down since the military overthrew Morsi nearly two years ago. The sentence will likely further polarize Egypt, a longtime US ally grappling with an Islamist insurgency that has intensified since Morsi’s overthrow.

In what appears to be the first violent response to the ruling, suspected Islamic militants gunned down three judges and their driver in the northern Sinai Peninsula city of al-Arish, according to security officials, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to speak to the media.
