Time for Jerusalem's flat footed cops to find the daubings culprits

This affair has gone on long enough, with racist daubings, supposedly the work of jews, targeting christian institutions around Jerusalem. This latest offering on the LPJ website is interesting.

 offensive words compared Christians to monkeys-dormition-abbey-major-orthographic-mistake.jpg
 JERUSALEM - Graffiti and anti-Christian insults in Hebrew were sprayed on a wall of the Dormition Abbey during the night of May 30.  Two cars were also smeared with offensive words and all tires were slashed......
The offensive words compared Christians to monkeys and called for revenge against Jesus. This incident is the latest in a succession of desecration of Christian monasteries in September and October last year.

As i've reported before, there are serious doubts as to whether any or all of these daubings are the work of jews. I believe some if not all are the work of arab agents provocateurs, or even a hebrew speaking christian cleric. The daubings often contain orthographic mistakes indicating that the author is writing hebrew as a second language.

The above daubing on the Dormition Abbey comparing christians to monkeys written in hebrew contains indications that it was written not only by a non-native hebrew speaker, but by an arab speaker.

From right to left the letters are n,o,? (supposed to be 'ts' but looks more like 's'), r, y, final m

Most noticably, in arabic there is no 'ts' sound, and this is missing from the daubing. Instead of 'Notsrim', 'Nosrim' is written.

If an 's', there should be no squiggle below the letter.


The extra squiggle below the 's' is strange, as if the writer felt there was some problem he could not fathom whilst writing it, possibly a reflection of having work corrected in school, and thus inventing his own hybrid of the two letters 's' and 'ts' to compensate, in the absence of being able to comprehend, hear or master the difference.

If you can't hear the difference between similar letters, if that sound does not exist in your language as with 'p' and 'b', it will be difficult for you as an arab to write the correct spelling.

Although fluent in hebrew, not being myself a native Israeli, I put this inscription to a native Israeli speaker for comment. The reply was that it was very improbable that an israeli wrote the sentence. In addition to the problematic 's', The final 'mem' was cited as not being something an israeli would write in that way.



But an arab would, and this final 'mem' is cursive as in arabic. The first letter 'nun' also has an arabic cursive feel to it, quite different to hebrew.


Whatever the truth, the racist grafitti against arabs and christians can not but cause serious harm to Israel's reputation as a country which sets high store by inter-communal harmony. And that's obviously why the unknown writer is mounting this campaign.

It has taken Israel 13 years to lay the ghost of the Al-Durah,  pallywood hoax, hopefully it will not take that long before the political echelons prod the Jerusalem police force into action. These incidents although most likely classed as petty vandalism and given a low priority, should be moved up the scale of priorities.

It is encouraging that, after my having exposed the hostile reportings of the Latin Patriarchate website with regard to Israel, with their latest report they do not jump to conclusions as to identifying as jewish or israeli those carrying out these attacks. It would be nice to think that this reveals a change of heart rather than simply reflecting being caught out before adn simply a change of strategy, of relying on the readers assumption of the language used, hebrew, identifying the perpetrator as jewish.

Is it too much to hope for that Pope Francis, a man who seems to be a genuine friend of the Jewish People can influence his clerics to abandon their age long hatreds? Time will tell, keeping in mind that a string of previous good popes, well intentioned men who were likewise friends of the Jewish People, failed to staunch the outpourings of hatred towards Israel by church clerics.

The agreement which has just been signed between the Vatican mentions nothing about ceasing the officially sponsored attacks on Israel emanating from Rome. That is a pity. Yet again Israel gives major concessions to those who see themselves as adversaries of jews and the Jewish State without receiving a quid pro quo.

All LPJ Catholic articles can be tweaked to attack Israel

 I've come accross this article from last year in the German section of the Latin Patriarchate Journal website which is about getting each diocese to sponsor building a home for a palestinian arab family. If german christians are up to another massive infusion of wealth for their coreligionists in east Jerusalem, then that's fine by me, even if its strange that there is no call to do this for any other christian community in the middle east. Indeed, one might think that christian money might be better spent on all those refugees in Syria and Lebanon, and those thrown out of Iraq in the last ten years. Not to mention the copts who unlike christians under Israeli rule, are having their churches damaged and knocked down all the time.
Als Minderheit zwischen den jüdischen und muslimischen Gemeinschaften, die viel zahlreicher sind, sehen sich die palästinensischen Christen mit den allgemeinen Schwierigkeiten der Bevölkerung konfrontiert – der Besatzung, der Kolonisation, der Einschränkung ihrer Bewegungsfreiheit – und der religiösen Intoleranz.
Laut katholischen Statistiken, leben von insgesamt 450.000 Einwohnern 10.000 Christen jeder Konfession in Ost-Jerusalem und ca. 50.000 in den besetzten palästinensischen Gebieten.
Im Rahmen des Besorgnis erregenden Exodus der Christen des Ostens emigrieren jedes Jahr etwa 600 davon aus Jerusalem, dem Westjordanland und dem Gaza-Streifen.
As a minority between the Jewish and Muslim communities, which are much more numerous, the Palestinian Christians are faced with the difficulties of the general population - the occupation, colonization, limiting their freedom of movement - and religious intolerance.

     According to Catholic statistics, out of a total of 450,000 people are 10,000 Christians of all confessions in East Jerusalem and 50,000 in the occupied Palestinian territories.

     As part of the alarming exodus of Christians of the East about 600 of them
emigrate each year from Jerusalem, the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.
The above laments that christians are a minority between jewish and muslim communities whilst identifying with the arabs in the Arab-Israel conflict. And there lies the answer to why the Catholic Church in Israel, is begging money to build arab settlements. It is just doing its bit in the conflict against Israel.

It is interesting how "- and religious intolerance" is tacked on at the end, after all the bits linked to the evil actions of jews to the poor palestinian arab victims. The LPJ knows full well that it isn't Israel which promotes religious intolerance, which is why it is slipped in at the end, leaving the impression that it is indeed the Jews who are oppressing christians, when the opposite is the case.

What is better for antisemites than to find a jew who seems to confirm the prejudice?


Jews seem to be always in the spotlight, usually for the wrong reasons. This is not because jews are any worse than other people, but because they are selected out whenever the opportunity arises. As jews are difficult to spot in the British population, and open racism against jews is in any case outlawed in the UK, antisemites will try to satisfy themeselves with attacking Israel, with its being held up to impossibly high standards.

When Israel's army is forced to go to war every arab civilian casualty suddenly becomes a war crime, despite Israel's enemies hiding behind their civilian population, despite Israel trying its utmost to avoid civilian causalties, and succeeding bettter than any other western army. We won't mention non european armies such as the russian army, because as we saw in 2008, civilians don't come into consideration (unless to be ethnically cleansed or murdered by South Ossettian irregular militias tagging on behind them).


Something which I find interesting is that jews rarely become known for the benefits they have brought to mankind.


Don't mention FritzHaber was jewish
As a student I learned about the Fritz Haber process, but only when reading Chaim Weizmann's autobiography later did I learn that Fritz was a jew, one that suddenly found himself described as 'subhuman' by the nazis. Stripped of his laboratories, of his wealth, of his 'fatherland' he had given his life for, he died soon after, a broken man. You still won't find any of this in the wiki or elsewhere for that matter, despite the fact that this jew's work is still of immense importance:
Fertilizer generated from ammonia produced by the Haber process is estimated to be responsible for sustaining one-third of the Earth's population.[6]


 But when a jew fails in his moral obligations to society, that is a cause for anti-semites to celebrate. This particular jew provides all the 'proof' necessary of the mendacious character of jews in general. Of course the reporter from the Liverpool Echo who posted the above photograph will deny any ulterior motive for posting a photo of Mr Harris Polak (convicted today of charity fraud) that is approximately 30 years old.

Nevertheless I can't avoid feeling that the reason for selecting this particular photgraph over any other is because Mr Polak is wearing a large yamulkah or capel worn by jewish people when at prayer. What better way to inform your readership that a jew is accused of one of the hoary myths of lore, that of his being sly, cunning and cheating, out to deceive the charitable and unsuspecting gentile?

What better way to perpetuate the myths without being yourself accused of antisemitism? How better to associate the heinous crime and the jew, without spelling out his religion? The intrepid Echo reporter can claim to be acting within the bounds of modern politically correct decency, whilst making certain through his picture that the evil jew is noticed. And let's face it, what Mr Polak did is evil, collecting for a cancer charity whilst pocketing the money to buy himself and his wife a fabulous house.

Whilst the wider gentile society in Liverpool, Britain will be rightly outraged at Mr Polak's deceitful use of charities to fund his lifestyle, the local jewish community is no less so. The community is comprised overwhelmingly of law abiding citizens and has itself previously suffered from Mr Polak's criminal endeavours. It might be difficult for someone not initiated in the laws of keeping kosher, but Mr Polak's offense against his own community of secretly supplying them non kosher meat whilst a licensed kosher butcher caused people in his community great upset, and the expense of replacing dishes that are not allowed to come into contact with meat considered unfit. The crime of fraud, of deception was in the same league as to his community as his latest deception. Jews are however a forgiving lot, especially as Mr Polak was believed to be suffering from a gambling habit. So Polak was indeed forgiven.

We see that Polak's criminality has been non discrimnatory. Profiting from the naivity of his victims, jewish or otherwise is the only common thread in Mr Polak's criminality.

I am informed that the Liverpool Jewish Community is deeply upset at this man and his wife's new act of criminality. The lessons from the mercy shown him by his community after his previous criminality were not learned, and now Mr Polak will find the judge's mercy tempered by a wish to deter others from a similar course.

A prominent Jewish businessman has admitted swindling almost #250,000 of cancer charity cash.......

Maybe the reporter who covered the trial, Chris Bradley was unaware of the helpful photograph of Polak as Jew published in the Liverpool Echo, because he saw fit to stress the religion of Mr Polak in the first line of his article, and stress that Mr Polack was a "prominent Jewish businessman", living on "millionaires row", a term I am informed is unknown to locals. It was of course necessary for Mr Bradley stress Polak's religion as from the photo of the couple taken alone, it would not be possible to identify Polak and wife as jewish.



For the Liverpool jewish community Polak was for many years little more than a tolerated outcast, an embarrassment even before his latest escapade. Mr Polak was only 'prominent' in Mr Bradley's imagination.

Maybe Chris Bradley always mentions the religion of those he reports about in the first line of his articles? After a short google search I could not come across any of Bradley's work but I have found reports about other charity conmen of which there seems no shortage, and in no case was their religion mentioned. It seems that religion is not usually relevant, that such crimes are not linked to any religious philosophy, or any particular group of religious adherents, unless the criminal happens to be jewish. Then it is relevant not because jews are more likely to commit the crime, but rather because they are jewish per se.

Just two examples will suffice:


A BRISTOL fraudster made £35,000 by selling clothes donated in fake charity collection bags.
Darius Kaminskas, of Douglas Road, Horfield, had worked for legitimate charity collectors before creating bags imitating those sent out by Barnardo’s.


 A man has admitted posing as comedian Peter Kay's brother while pretending to raise money for a boy dying from cancer. BBC News reports that Peter Stead, 50, of no fixed address, pleaded guilty to five counts of fraud. He will be sentenced on June 21.
It is not possible in any of the ten or so cases I found after a quick Google search to ascertain what religion the miscreant belonged to, it is irrelevant. The exception is Mr Polak where both reports I have seen identify his religion. This is just too statistically significant to be an aberration. 

It is a singling out of jewish people for opprobrium, an antisemitic act designed to bring jews into the foreground when committing a criminal act, as opposed to those who are not jewish. This is a typically racist act, one that may be better understood in relation to singling out black people as being supposedly more likely to commit violence. There is little truth in the assertion, but as tabloid newspapers habitually report on violent black people to the relative exclusion of whites, the stereotype has become ingrained in the consciousness of their readership.

Once the stereotype is ingrained the prejudiced person is more likely to notice when a black person commits a violent crime, thus confirming the initial prejudicial view of black people,  completing the circle.

It's interesting to contrast Bradley's alacrity in identifying 'the jew' with the BBC's efforts in disguising the islamic motivations of the Woolwich murderers:
The footage shown on the ITV website shows a man, speaking to the camera, saying: "We must fight them as they fight us. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth."
It is no coincidence that the words immediately preceding the quote above uttered by Adebolajo, of Allah Akbar, and good Ayas' (verses in the Koran) were ommitted. These words essential to understanding the racist islamic supremacist motivations of the beheaders were also voiced over in the video on youtube. It is all very well to be sensitive to the feelings of muslims, so as not to give the impression of painting a whole community in the same light, but why are such journalistic standards not applicable when jews commit crimes less serious by several orders of magnitude?

Unlike with the crime of fraud, this crime of extreme violence was indeed linked to a certain violent interpretation of islam held by many muslims (certainly not the majority, but a substantial minority nonetheless), and Adebolajo himself linked his religion to the crime. Mr Polak did not make such a link with his crime because there isn't one. It took two Liverpool reporters to establish a spurious link between Mr Polak's religion and a most despicable crime of fraud against a charity.

Maybe Mr Chris Bradley of Click Liverpool will be happy at being identified as an antisemite as this is in British left wing circles nowadays seen more as a badge of honor than something to hang one's head about (the Liverpool Echo report was unsigned but my comments about Mr Bradley apply equally there).

It is sad to find that traditional antisemitism is alive and well in Britain.

Update 5th June 2013:
The latest edition of the Liverpool Daily Post has reported the outcome of the trial impeccably this time, with no attempt to link the odious crime with the criminal's religion.

Update 11th June 2013



The Click Liverpool reporter updated his reporting of the swindlers. Maybe he was informed that his reporting of the 'jewish angle' looked too blatant the first time? The first line was therefore changed from Polak's being 'a prominent jewish businessman' to:
 A businessman has admitted swindling almost £250,000 of cancer charity cash to spare his wife a prison sentence.

Harris Polak, 53, pleaded guilty to fraud by abuse of position, the fifth count in a series of fraud-related charges, at Liverpool Crown Court.
But:
 millionaire's row in the affluent suburb of Childwall on Merseyside
 was not omitted, despite locals' I have contacted having no knowledge of this term being applied to houses in that road

And Chris Bradley could not resist including Polak's jewishness later on:
The couple are well-known members of the Jewish community in Liverpool, particularly at the Liverpool Childwall Synagogue which has
Bradley might have tidied up his report, but the relevance of religion to the report is still only for Polak, nowhere else did I find reports that mention the religion of the criminal, which leaves the verdict being, one criminal fraudster on bail, and one racist Liverpool journalist Chris Bradley determined to add his little bit of credence to defamatory stereotypes of jewish people.

Old habits die hard for the World Council Of Churches, tough for eastern christians

This golden bell  fell from the clothes of a Jerusalem Temple priest between 2 to 3 thousand years ago
The Bible relates Bilam's blessing to the Jews:
I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse;

and all peoples on earth
will be blessed through you.” (Genesis 12:3)

If the World Council Of Churches which met recently in Lebanon wanted to help christians in the islamic world, it has a strange way of going about it. With christians under severe and prolonged attack in just about every muslim country, the WCC chose to publish an attack centered on Israel, on its christian zionist supporters, and of course the USA.

Yet there is no such language used against those committing atrocities at this very moment against christians in the middle east. Why so? Why such harsh language for the USA and Israel, and western countries? Christians from Iraq and Egypt are fleeing to those western countries at this very moment, and have been for years. There is now a flood of christian refugees coming out of Egypt to these maligned western countries.

The WCC talks of 'Palestine' being central when events belie that, when arab countries are openly talking no longer so much about the hated jews but of the Iranian menace, a time when Syria is going down in sectarian islamic flames, when Lebanon is slowly but surely being sucked into the shia-sunni maelstrom.
That the WCC can talk of, "duplicity of policies of the western  powers, especially the United States" at this time says less about those maligned, and very much about the World Council Of Churches which refuses to name the real culprits, those who christians really have cause to fear and to loathe.
    5.  Palestine continues to be the central issue in the region.  Resolving the conflict between
        Israel and Palestine in accordance with the UN resolutions and international law, will
        greatly help in resolving the other conflicts in the region. The persistence, after sixty-five
        years, of continuing dispossession of Palestinian people—Christian and Muslim alike—from
        their land by Israeli occupation, continuing settlement of land inside the 1967 borders by a
        nation empowered by overwhelming military strength and external alliances and influence,
        is central to the turmoil in the region and exacerbated by duplicity of policies of the western  powers, especially the United States. Christians have been called to condemn and act against this continuing injustice, affirming the voice and demands of Palestinian Christians,    including as heard in the Kairos Palestine document.

    6.  Jerusalem today is an occupied city with a government which has adopted discriminatory
        policies against Christians and Muslims alike. “Jerusalem is the foundation of our vision and our entire life. She is the city to which God gave a particular importance in the history of
        humanity. She is the city towards which all people are in movement – and where they will
        meet in friendship and love in the presence of the One Unique God.” (Kairos Palestine)
        Christians look to Jerusalem as a place God blessed with the significance of His presence,
.......Jerusalem must be an open, accessible, .........inclusive and shared city for two peoples and three religions...

 The description of Jerusalem as 'occupied' is laughable. Jerusalem has had a jewish majority since polls began, certainly since 1872. Any christian who doubts that Jerusalem is anything but open, free and accessible should book a ticket to Israel, go straight to Jerusalem and make up their own mind. Jerusalem was not free before Israel liberated it after being attacked by Jordan in 1967. Jordan had in 1948 blown up all of the jewish holy places and then used its cemetery on the Mount of Olives as a source of stone, to build latrines, to drive a road through to a hotel it built on the top. There was no WCC protest about this, never a mention. But jews protect freedom of worship and access to christian holy places are vilified at every opportunity.
For once Israel can sit pretty, observing the islamic madness raging all around the tiny country, a country protecting its jewish, christian and muslim inhabitants alike, without fear or favor, without discrimination, as christians and church representatives living and working in Israel well know. The WCC is willfully blind to the fact that the one country in the region where christians are safe, where the christian community is increasing in size is the Jewish State of Israel.

In a sane world, the World Council Of Churches would be busy recognizing where the real problems for christians lie, would be condemning the real perpetrators such Egypt's Muslim Brotherhood whose president Mohammed Morsy who feigns ignorance of the miseries inflicted on christians in his country (Morsy leaves the dirty work of ethnically cleansing the christians to the salafist thugs).

The WCC should be working out strategies to confront those who attack christians which might even include publicly condemning the kidnappings, the killings, the forced conversions, the raping and 'marrying' off of young coptic christian girls to salafists, of ethnic cleansing of christians from Iraq, in Syria, in Libya and Egypt, not to mention the horrors perpetrated on christians in muslim countries further afield such as Pakistan and Indonesia.

The WCC in Lebanon was however incapable of showing a lead in protecting its own people. Instead it took the easy way out targeting the traditional christian victims, the jews, and those christians who aren't blinkered, who dare to show love rather than hatred towards jews.


The World Council Of Churches should savor its Lebanon conference as with the increasing Hizbollah and sunni violence it might soon not be able to meet again in that country for some years, if ever.

But old habits die hard and the WCC dinosaurs just can't adapt to the reality and turn away from the default kicking of the Jew. Unlike a few million Jews who have built an ever increasingly successful state  founded on ideals of western civilization and democracy, christians are disappearing rapidly from Syria and the wider middle east, unprotected and even unlamented by their own coreligionists.

When all the christians are gone from the middle east except Israel, christians living in the West might begin to ask what their representatives did to help their bretheren when they were being massacred and thrown out the middle east. These christians will maybe look to the Vatican for answers, and find that the archives are sealed, only accessible to carefully selected researchers. So they will search world newspapers expecting frantic condemnations by the Vatican media and the World Council Of Churches of the horrors inflicted on christians in arab and muslim countries, but they will find only condemnations of Israel, the one country where a christian community still exists, where they as ever welcome, respected and protected by the state.

And these christians will ponder also on the fact that from Israel being a country of 600,000 jews at its birth, when it fought a bitter war of survival in 1948, there are now almost 7 million jews living there.

These christians will slowly begin to understand the significance of Bilam's blessing to their own situation and realize how terribly wrong their representatives and their clerics were/are in their obsessive hatred of the Jewish People.

'Asian' gangs grooming young girls for sex (don't mention they are Pakistani muslims)



As with the USSR the average British citizen is having to learn to read between the lines of the official reports. This is seen with a number of reports of 'asian' gangs having groomed young girls and then pimped them to friends and clients. Hindus and Sikhs have known to be upset at the BBC and other news media calling these people 'asians' when as far as is known, they are always muslim, and from Pakistan. There is maybe in part a laudable wish not to stereotype all muslims, but then if some amongst the muslim community are the sole perpetrators of this type of crime, then it points to an issue that must be addressed, not swept under the carpet. Just widening the pool of perpetrators of this crime from 'Pakistani muslims' to 'asians', is not to protect pakistanis or muslims, but unfairly taint the wider asian community in Britain. Whether we like it or not, there is a big problem with women in islam, and islamic communities.

And then there are the victims, left unprotected by authorities afraid to lay themselves open to charges of 'racism':
A VICTIM of the Oxford sex grooming gang that was allowed to operate with virtual impunity for years has told how she begged social services for help after being drugged, threatened and enslaved.

Western countries effectively tolerate barbaric islamic practices under shariah law such as beatings and perverse sexuality against muslim women and underage girls. FGM, honor killings and pedophilia happen in most european countries. Britain for example has never prosecuted anyone for carrying out FGM in Britain or abroad. Pakistani women are known to have disappeared without trace, their families 'clamming up' about the honor crime victims. Any attentions from the outside are frustrated and the police if at all possible will leave well alone.

When British politician Jack Straw tried to address pakistani muslims grooming of girls he received a mountain of opprobrium, although one muslim leader was brave enough to agree the problem exists.
He said that the scandal, exposed by the trial of nine Asian men jailed for grooming and sexual abuse of white girls in Rochdale, raised a problem which had to be “faced and addressed” within some communities in northern cities.
 Another lawyer disclosed that he is preparing a case involving alleged abuse of one girl in seven separate cities stretching across the North West of England but also as far away as Wolverhampton.
 The alleged abuse follows a similar pattern: involving grooming rings dominated by men from Pakistani backgrounds, who are often taxi drivers, picking up girls and taking them to flats for sex with several men.
 Mr Straw, whose Blackburn and Darwen constituency in Lancashire has a large Asian population, has angered some sections of the Muslim community in the past by calling for women to remove veils which cover their faces.
 Last year he also warned that white girls are sometimes treated as “easy meat” for some young Asian men who are “fizzing and popping with testosterone” but had no “outlet” within their own community.
 Speaking after the publication of the report yesterday, he dismissed claims that the problems uncovered by the Rochdale report affected all communities.
 “There is an issue of ethnicity here which can’t be ignored,” he told BBC Radio 4.
 “But it is also correct that in terms of group grooming there is an ethnic dimension which typically is of Asian men on white girls.
 “These are small communities so people will have a rough idea that people are abusing white girls in this way.
 “That has to be dealt with there as well as obviously with much more effective police and social services action.”
 Mohammed Shafiq, the Muslim commentator and chief executive of the Rochdale-based Ramadhan Foundation,.........“I think that an element of what he said is right – there are some people in my community, the Pakistani community, the elders, who think that the best thing to do is just ignore it and assume it all a BNP and EDL conspiracy.
 A spokesman for the Network of Sikh Organisations added that it was not accurate to describe the grooming rings as an “Asian” problem.

 “It is something tat the leaders of the Muslim community, the Pakistani community, need to address,” he said.

Another factor contributing to the Muslim rape wave is the fact that Muhammed, if he ever lived, allowed Muslims to take infidel women as their sex slaves. Using female prisoners of war for sexual gratification dates 1,400 years back to their prophet, who had a large number of sex slaves and advised his male followers to imitate his example.

While a Muslim husband can divorce at any time by repeating the word "talaq" three times, a married Muslim woman is her husband's de facto slave, since she can not divorce unless a Sharia council approves her wish and sets her free. If she leaves without being allowed, her risk of getting killed is as high as the killer's chance of remaining unpunished for fulfilling his culture's and God's expectations on how to treat women who leave a marriage without being allowed to.

A psychologically unhealthy religion

One does not have to be a psychologist to know what such a culture does to men's view of women. No grown-up man would ever consider having sex with minors, and certainly not against her will, drugged, beaten and threatened with death.

But what we are talking about here are not normal men, but males who since birth have been raised to think that women are inferior and that females who do not protect their honor by covering up are prostitutes and fair game. No man should ever wish to be subjected to such unhealthy cultural influence.

Who brutally beat the British prison officers, why?

It's interesting how the British media fall over themselves to disguise the fact that muslims commit crime, horrific ones at that. When a british soldier was slaughtered and then gave a jihadist rant this was voiced over on the video distributed on all the networks:


The missing bits ( in full):
By Allah, we swear by the almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you until you leave us alone. So what if we want to live by the Shari'a in Muslim lands? ... But we are forced by the Qur'an, in Sura At-Tawba, through many ayah in the Qu'ran, we must fight them as they fight us. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.
So today we have a guard being caught by three prisoners and beaten senseless, his life saved by a riot squad which stormed the attackers.

Nowhere in this report does it mention that the perpetrators are islamist extremists:
Police are investigating after prisoners at a maximum security jail kidnapped a guard for four hours and gave him a severe beating.

 Three prisoners, two aged 25 and one aged 26, were believed to be involved in the attack, which is being investigated by counter-terrorism officers.

 The guard suffered a broken cheek bone and was reportedly only freed after prison officers in riot gear stormed a cleaning room where he was held.
The report did include that muslim prisoners feel hard done by:
"However, despite satisfactory diversity structures, Muslim and black and minority ethnic prisoners reported much more negatively than their non-Muslim and white counterparts on a range of issues.

 "The chaplaincy continued to provide a valued service, including working sensitively and effectively to support Muslim prisoners while challenging attempts at radicalisation."

Are these possibly the same prisoners who have been trying to kill 'kuffars' ('infidels'), who see the complaints system in prison as another means of continuing the war, somewhat as British prisoners of war would see their escape attempts as tying down the enemy forces?

Trying to obfuscate who the perpetrators are hasn't pulled the wool over the eyes of yahoo readers:

Not all Muslims are terrorists but most terrorists are Muslim. I don't understand why the Government allows the radicals to operate, effectively putting the entire public in constant danger and our security services under constant stress. It's madness.

The BBC can as usual go one better. The word 'muslim' is never mentioned as regards anything negative:
A prison officer has been taken hostage and attacked by three inmates at a maximum-security jail near York.
 Whilst the report stressed that the hostage taking prisoners were:

"not in prison for terror-related offences".
The North East Counter Terrorism Unit is investigating what happened, and:

Michael Spurr, chief executive of the National Offender Management Service, said the terrorism unit was investigating the motives behind the incident.
 It was left to one of the smaller provincial newspapers to spell out just who carried out the attack, and why:
MUSLIM extremist prisoners carried out an attack on a warder in a Yorkshire jail at the weekend, it was revealed this morning.

Three inmates held the warden hostage before stabbing him during a four-hour stand-off with guards on Sunday afternoon.
Reports said the attack at Full Sutton prison in Yorkshire was inspired by last week’s murder of Drummer Lee Rigby.

This morning it emerged that the victim was a former soldier. A leaked email, said to have been sent to all staff in the prison service, said the officer had been was chosen by the three Muslim inmates because of his links to the Armed Forces.

The email reads: “Three Muslim prisoners took an officer hostage in an office. Their demands indicated they supported radical Islamist extremism. “The officer taken was an ex-serviceman and, throughout the incident, threats were made to kill him.”

The incident is now being investigated by counter-terrorism officers.

A Ministry of Justice spokesman said: “An incident involving three prisoners took place at HMP Full Sutton on 26 May from 4.25pm and was successfully resolved at 8.40pm after staff intervened. A police investigation is ongoing.”

Newspaper reports initially claimed the attack was masterminded by the Muslim fanatic Parviz Khan, who is serving life a sentence for plotting to behead a British soldier, but a source said he was not being held at Full Sutton. Khan, from Birmingham, was jailed in 2008.

Latest Israeli appeasement: Arabs throwing rocks at you? Build a bridge

I used to drive my car from Jerusalem all the way through Ramallah, Nablus and Jenin up to the Galilee. It didn't occur to me that an arab would throw a rock at my car. This was until the first intifada in 1987 when on its first day, a badly aimed rock did hit my car when going through an arab town.

As sometimes happened I had earlier misread the map (easy to do as the roads in and out of arab villages although clearly marked on the map, were not distinguishable on the ground). Normally after a friendly greeting (in english, although the car's number plates were Israeli) an arab man would direct me. That day I had noticed a strange look in the man's eyes.

Of course there had been the odd terror attack which claimed the lives of jews, but the everyday terror didn't occur, a terror whereby jews travelling in Judea and Samaria or even past certain arab villages in Israel can expect barrages of rocks to come their way.

In those days arabs and jews in Judea and Samaria could freely mix. I would even stop my car and do some shopping in an arab town. To be sure I didn't take risks as the threat of terror was always there, but this generalized fear by jews of falling victim to arab terror when coming into arab sights in Judea and Samaria had not yet come about.

In those days there was a fear amongst arabs that if a jew was attacked, there would be a price to pay. These were the days when Israel cared for its own citizens' human rights above those of an aggressive and murderous arab enemy.

This was when the Israeli government and the average Israeli still remembered arab threats to exterminate all jews, and its earlier fears that maybe Israel was not strong enough to defend itself, to survive the arab onslaught. When Israel did survive, and spectacularly, arabs knew that when they attacked jews, they would always pay a price.

But nowadays Israel is well and truly on the back foot. Arabs riot in Judea and Samaria, they disrupt israeli roads with constant rock attacks interspersed with occasional rifle fire, they knife jews at will, frustrate the IDF patrols (with the aid of hundreds of european and US youths spending their gap year baiting jews) and generally make life a misery for people living in the ancient jewish homelands.

Britain had an answer in the 1930's. When arab terrorists would shoot up cars and murder travellers, a warning would be given to the village head, that if the attacks reoccurred, the village would be blown up. A terrible thing nowadays, collective punishment, a War Crime, a Crime Against Humanity, yet the threats worked, and the brutal arab terror of 1936-39 was prevented.

Jewish settlements continued to be attacked because the Haganah mostly kept to a policy of 'havlaga', of restraint, of only defending  jewish kibbutzim. Orde Wingate taught the jews the fallacy of this, instructing his jewish Special Night Patrols to wait outside arab villages to shoot up the armed terrorists as they left for their nightly attacks. The terror ceased, for a while, and then began again in 1947 for a while.

Now the terror is back because Israel is drunk on human rights, for its enemy. Instead of going into villages and making wholesale arrests of the leaders of these terror bands, of imprisoning the operatives and destroying their houses, the IDF is on full scale retreat. When firebombs and rocks are thrown at soldiers, they may only fire at the attackers if their lives are in certain and imminent danger. And many soldiers prefer to run away than fire their gun, for fear of causing an 'incident', of having to answer to their commander for an arab terrorist killed or wounded.

Where once orchards or houses being used to hide those who attacked jews would be bulldozed, the IDF will arrange convoys to pass them, or put armour plating on buses and cars.

This static defense policy is not just practised in Judea and Samaria but invades the minds of Israel's generals and policy makers. Israel must not do anything which will cause casualties amongst arabs, take away their 'human rights', or upset the world and its biased media.

So when attacked jews have to hunker down. Rather than take the war to the enemy and flush out the Hamas nests, Israel developed the Iron Dome, a system which although excellent, is also very expensive, and gives out the wrong message, the same one that jews in ghettos in Minsk and in Hebron in 1929 gave out, that to attack jews is a cost-free enterprise. You might not kill a jew today, might not have been able to batter down his door, but at least you can go home and rest, and then try it again tomorrow with your friends as you know exactly where the jew lives.

So now we have the idiocy of the IDF building a road so that jews in Judea and Samaria will be taken out of the range of stone throwers! Millions of dollars will be expended on a totally unnecessary road, because arab stone throwers use houses as cover to launch their attacks from.

Any sane mind would say such houses should be removed so that a clear zone can be created along the road, but no, Israeli tax payers must foot the bill for another act of appeasement. And arabs will find a new arena to attack jews from. And the jewish army will come up with another clever and expensive way to avoid any harm to arabs terrorizing jews.

Meanwhile the army and police crack down on jews who defend themselves, confiscating weapons and arresting those who fire in defense of their lives.

I sometimes wonder if Israel, fantastic country that it is, has a death wish or just wishes to have a fight for its very survival every few years.

When referring to arab states, Golda Meir once said that peace will come when arabs love their children more than they hate Israel.

Maybe this should be adapted to, peace with palestinian arabs will come when Israel loves its own people more than the exaggerated human rights those who commit terror against it.
------------
By the way, Hamas asked Egypt to cancel its peace treaty with Israel. Morsy would if his country wasn't in such dire straights. He called for jihad just before his election.

And Kerry wants Israel to make concessions to the arabs. Let him solve the Iraqi and Syrian bloodletting first, and show Israel that arab countries can keep their word, can last more than a few years, can live in peace with each other, never mind Israel.

British media suppresses the islamic motive of the barbaric terror attack in London


Who sent this jihadist to chop up a british soldier on a busy street in London? Which mosque did he attend? Which radical preacher did he learn from?
In 2001 Israel faced a wave of terror which killed and wounded 10,000 israelis for no other reason than being jewish in Israel. Of course many non jews, muslims and christians also suffered in the terror wave. The outbreak was largely due to the liberal world view of and long standing appeasement of Israel's enemies by Ehud Barak who cared more for what Israel's enemies would say, rather than protecting his people as prime minister. When Ariel Sharon came to power the situation whereby suicide bombers were setting off their bombs in israeli streets, cafes and restaurants every other day came to an end.

Rather than wait for the suicide bombers to come to Israel, Israel in operation 'Defensive Shield' went to Jenin and Ramallah and cleared out the terrorists' nests. When those training and sending the suicide bombers on their missions could not be arrested, they were killed. The Security Fence was also built to stop easy access to Israel for the suicide bombers, and the checkpoints were built. Under the intense pressure of Obama's administration most checkpoints have been removed so now there are only 12 of them. And Israelis are once again being killed on the roads of Judea and Samaria.

In winning the war against the terrorists in 2002, Israel gave a lesson those 'specialists' in the west who said that you can not win a terror war among an enemy population without bribing them, without 'nation building' them. Well we see where 'nation building' has got Nato in Afghanistan. Absolutely nowhere. The secret of Israel's success was excellent intelligence, and a will to act. Britain took longer, but similarly defeated IRA terror by infiltrating its organisation. Winning the war against the terrorists did not mean that Israel acts indiscriminately, just the opposite. Israel's operations were targeted only against those involved in terror. Arabs in Israel have always known that if they don't get involved in terror, the state doesn't get involved with them, it tries its best to spare their lives.  Even Israeli smart weapons were created to spare arab civilians, such as the bomb that can be shifted to another target in mid-air if civilians are spotted near a terror target.
Israel's 'dummy bomb', an inert bomb was not so successful as when warned, civilians would then crowd the target with human shields knowing Israel would not launch an attack.

So now to the Woolwich terror attack. Britain has been lucky until now with the horror of terror on its streets being mostly prevented by its security forces.Britain has never faced the full wrath of jihad on its streets. This is partly because jihad does not always need to be violent. Demographic jihad also has its place, and with 10% of babies born in the UK now being muslim and with the commonest name for children now being 'Muhammad', Britain is well on its way to becoming another muslim country. If that's what the British people want then all well and good. But British people who are generally very tolerant should know that all muslim countries are intolerant of minorities, and many have islam written into their constitutions. Christianity is barely tolerated in most muslim countries and in them it is often very dangerous to be a christian. Is that what British people want, to be slowly forced to adopt other cultures and the muslim religion?

Whatever British people want, they should see that muslims in Britain are themselves protected from the extremism of the wahabite Saudi radical preachers. If integration rather than 'multi-culturalism' was promoted then there would be little to complain about. When jews came to the UK they assimilated culturally whilst keeping their religion in the home. But islam is a supremacist ideology, and if the host culture is not careful then shariah law, its intolerance and its punishments will follow once muslims become a majority. Already intolerance stalks London's streets with 'muslim patrols' enforcing sharia zones near mosques, where women are told how to dress and where alcohol may not be carried in the street, where muslim women are stripped of their rights in 'voluntary' shariah courts.

Shariah intolerance and islamic supremacism is what the Woolwich terror attack was about, of two violent men who instead of having their limited intelligence and their strength being channeled into something positive such as gardening or stacking shelves in Wallmart (Asda in the UK) or Tesco's, were taught in their saudi financed mosque to hate the society which paid them their benefits, where they learned that a good muslim should "strike the neck of the infidel" (47:4), and strike they did.

As usual the British liberal media jumped to cover up the islamic nature of such an awful crime. The BBC buried the fact that the terrorist chanted 'Allah Akbar'  many paragraphs down in its report of the attack. The BBC 'analysis' was predictable, that Britain is to blame, " basic principle that they (jihadists) oppose a Western presence in the Islamic world". Maybe the BBC would like to explain the gruesome bombings of shia against sunni and vice versa in Iraq? The lust for blood can be sated for all manner of reasons, all manner of invented grievances. But of course British journalists swallow these grievances hook line and sinker, as long as they are directed against Israel or western 'imperialism'. Islamic supremacism and imperialism is never mentioned. That might offend, and once offended certain people get violence. The liberal British version of the 'cycle of violence.' 

Even the terrorist wearing black shouting Allah Akbar and talking about 'good Ayas' in favor of jihad at the beginning of the video was given a voice over to disguise the islamic nature of his rantings. Only when the terrorist began spouting off about the British army invading other countries was he allowed to be heard, because this is part of the British liberal credo.

But then Israel gets this sort of distortion as part of the normal treatment by the mass media. I looked all over youtube for the video of the terrorist dressed in black ranting without the voiceover, but only jihadwatch had it.
 Here’s what he said:
We swear by Almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you. The only reasons we have done this is because Muslims are dying every day. This British soldier is an eye for an eye a tooth for tooth. We apologise that women had to see this today but in our lands our women have to see the same. You people will never be safe. Remove your government. They don’t care about you.
The yahoo account neglected to mention the bit about, "We swear by Almighty Allah we will never stop fighting you."
"They apparently encouraged passers-by to video them.  One of the alleged attackers was filmed wielding a bloodied meat cleaver, saying:  "We must fight them as they fight us. An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

 I apologise that women have had to witness this today, but in our land our women have to see the same. You people will never be safe. Remove your government, they don't care about you," he said.
The first mention in the yahoo account of islam was in paragraph eight, to allow a denial by the group one of the terrorists belonged to:
Anjem Choudary, the former leader of banned Islamic group al Muhajiroun, said he knew one of the alleged attackers but had not seen him for about two years.
Yahoo mentions the islamic side only in paragraph twelve:
 Two suspected Muslim fanatics attacked the man in the street a short distance from the Royal Artillery Barracks after apparently knocking him down with their car.
So the evidence of the islamic motive was in part selected out, voiced over, and buried deep in an article about. And of course the perpetrators are allowed full reign to distort their hateful crimed, to state their own victimhood status, that this poor soldier 'had it coming', that the 'sins' of the British are responsible for pushing poor muslims into doing such terrible acts.

 Exactly the sort of treatment the media gives habitually to Israel. At least there is until now no 'Pallywood' involvement, whereby news is invented.

It's interesting that the media will mention if a christian or jew act unsocially. The media loves to repeat versions of the mantra of 'right wing jewish extremist'. Usually those 'extremists' are caught defending themselves from arab rock throwers, but of course the arab rock throwing will be edited out in the versions for youtube. Thankfully the IDF and jews of Judea and Samaria are slowly learning to take their own videos of confrontations. Not nearly enough are made or posted to youtube.

So Britain after its security forces frustrated many hundreds of islam inspired terror attacks in the last few years has had another one. Sadly the lesson will not be learned.

The only way to defeat these jihadist terrorists is to go to the source, to close down radical mosques, madrassas and schools, and deport radical islamic preachers, usually emanating from Saudi Arabia or Pakistan back to their countries of origin.

Britain (along with other west european countries and the USA) won't do this, and that is why a large and growing proportion of Britain's muslim communities are being radicalized. We can only wait for the next islamic inspired terror attack to happen on Britain's streets, because happen it will.

Will the British people ever learn? It's hard to say with such biased media, indoctrinated in their universities to a particular world view of the West being forever at fault. Polls in Britain and europe consistently show Israel as being seen as akin to Iran, at the very bottom of the league, when it comes to human rights. The perversion of the truth is almost total, but after many years of spoonfeeding of arab propaganda, rehashed and 'soundbited' by western media, it's understandable.

So the media message is Britain is to blame. How predictable.

Arabs are beginning to admit that palestinians are a fake people (invented so as to destroy Israel)

 That Palestine is Jordan has been understood since the 1950's by those not beholden to the arab cause of destroying Israel. There never was a 'Palestine', never was a people called 'palestinians', and there are no palestinian family names. 'Palestinian' culture is arab culture, no different, ditto their food, ditto the way they treat women and gays (kill them).

Whenever arabs have held Gaza or Judea and Samaria, there was never a demand for self-autonomy or independence from those places. Only when Israel in its defensive war of 1967 re-conquer those territories did the 'palestinians' emerge. 

Whenever pal arabs get the chance to have another citizenship they grab it, as they themselves don't believe in a nationality foisted upon them. That arab governments will not allow arabs from the former British Mandated areas to have other arab citizenship is a matter for the arabs to sort out amongst themselves.

The bottom line is, that Israel must prevent arabs in Judea and Samaria from grabbing any more land from Israel. If arabs in those areas wish for nationality, let them take Jordanian citizenship. 
If arabs in areas of Judea and Samaria which have already given away by Israel wish to become independent, then all well and good, but then it does not mean that Israel owes them anything, not land, not access to Israel or its markets, nothing. Let them look east to Jordan, or Iraq or ............


By:  Geoffrey Aronson for Al-Monitor   

A recent visitor to Amman reports some senior Jordanians declaring openly that “there never was a place called Palestine. There is no such thing as Palestine, only Jordan.” Such sentiments, while still a minority view, mark a sea change in the long-standing Jordanian deference to the PLO on developments west of the Jordan River. According to one Palestinian, such views are being encouraged by some voices in Fatah, who fear Hamas' baton more than Amman's reluctant embrace, and who no doubt believe, as many veterans in Fatah do, that all it will take to turn Jordan into Palestine is a Palestinian decision to do so.

 “Jordan is Palestine” is the mirror image of  “Palestine is Jordan." Jordanians identified with the latter are not contemplating a confederal agreement between respective Jordanian and and Palestinian states, but rather the restoration of Jordan's uncontested place in Jerusalem and the West Bank on the eve of the June 1967 war.

 The ruler of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan is not to be envied. History and geography have played a cruel trick on the leader of this unlikely country. He is squeezed between more powerful and often warring parties, presiding over a population of subjects thrown together by war and circumstance.To its credit, Jordan has succeeded more often than it has failed to construct a popular and workable, if fragile sense of national identity shared by disparate Palestinian and Transjordanian communities during the last nine decades. However, the self-immolation of Syria, Fatah’s failure to end Israel's occupation of the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the uncertain promise of the Arab Spring are posing new and unprecedented challenges for King Abdullah II, whose head lies ever uneasy on the royal throne.  

 The feasting on the corpse that was once Syria poses the most immediate challenge to Jordan, and it was at the heart of recent discussions during the King's recent visit to Washington in the last week of April. But Jordan's cascading problem managing the fallout from Syria complements the more essential challenge that has always been uppermost in the mind of Jordan's political elite as well as its growing Islamic opposition. This challenge, of course, relates to the Palestinian dimension of Jordan's national identity, and the King's ability to manage this without his Hashemite or Transjordanian identity suffering as a consequence.

The news could be better, but it could also be worse

In the Islamic World War now gearing up at the syrian fault line the news is not all bad.

On the minus side, Israel has been forced to intervene multiple times recently in a war it very much wished to keep out of. Israel's bombing of Syria has had the effect of bringing Russia to show its hand by supplying the dreaded S300 anti-air missile system to Syria, and to station a fleet of ships off the coast of Syria. The war being waged in Syria is now recognized by most observers as having an extreme islamic nature on either side. The formerly much vaunted FSA is little more than a front for jihadists, little different, if at all to the fanatics of al Nusra financed by Saudi Arabia and Qatar.

Russia, as with Iran and Hezbollah was forced to take sides in a conflict it did not want. Russia would dearly like to remain as previously the weapons supplier and sleeping partner of the Syrian regime, but Iran has forced Russia's hand through the reaction by Israel to its attempted transfers of advanced missiles to its representatives in Lebanon, Hezbollah, via the good offices of Assad.

Iran and Hezbollah have been dragged into this conflict in support of their alawite ally, forced to support the regime that has killed many thousands of sunnis inside Syria for the last two years. No longer can Hezbollah make any pretense at being the 'resistance' to Israel (this in any case was just a fig leaf for Iranian aggression against Israel, certainly since Israel's withdrawal from Lebanese territory in 2000). The Iranians and Hezbollah also dearly wished to avoid this fight, their main love being to kill jews of Israel, but fight this war they must. And as I predicted a number of times in the past two years, this war is slowly intensifying, burning surely and at times with great intensity such as in the present battles for Qusayr.

And as I have previously stated, no side can win this war. The stakes are too high for both sunnis and shia. They have the treasure and the arms to keep a war going indefinitely.

The USA should not have become involved, but it did, and has done no good. The USA thought it would supply the syrian rebels through the offices of islamist Turkey and Qatar and only helped to deepen the radical islamic nature of this conflict rather than help depose Assad.

Even had the USA kept its nose out of this, the islamization of the conflict was probably inevitable. It might just have happened at a slower pace. The Newtonian Law that every action has an equal and opposite reaction should have been considered by Obama, but he has his own agenda, to counterbalance Iran whilst keeping the USA out of taking direct action. From a humanitarian viewpoint this was a mistake. The USA should not have backed any side, not have intervened at all, unless in a fit of principled humanity it was to try and train a secular alliance within Syria. This would most likely have been doomed to fail, as with the mujahideen who were slaughtered when Khomeini came to power in Iran. The Baathists were the true secularists, until they hitched their wagon to Iran.

The USA can rarely get things right when intervening in the middle east, and Obama has been the most spectacular failure ever, unless radicalizing the region was his plan from the beginning. Obama's policy  has been of building a sunni counterweight to Iran via the Muslim Brotherhood, salafists, assorted islamic extreme groups and countries along with neo Ottomanist islamist Turkey. The plan has succeeded, although it was in any case in formation in the last years.The stage is set for a prolonged and bitter fight that might very possibly last very many years. As I predicted last year, Lebanon is now being sucked in, slowly but surely. Over the weekend the Lebanese army came into play, and the fighting is right on the border of Lebanon. And firefights seem to be breaking out with greater frequency in Tripoli and elsewhere.

The rock of Iran (and its ally Assad and proxy Hezbollah) has hit the hard sunni world, a world unforgiving of those they see as apostates threatening their very regimes.  A world full of extremist madrassas with students just longing to become involved in the fight against the shia 'heretics', as they see them.

The USA and Russia should sit this one out as it has little to do with them, and much to do with islam.
But the USA and Russia will not sit on the sidelines, more pity for the region, and also for Israel, although it might continue to be spared direct involvement.

Israel has been the wisest actor in the region, keeping its cool, growling menacingly and acting firmly when its interests are threatened or missiles, mortars or even bullets come over the border on the Golan Heights. Hamas learned last November that the rules have changed, that Israel will no longer tolerate its border communities being terrorized with missiles on every sabbath morning, when children go to or leave their classrooms, on every national or jewish holiday when the rest of Israel is celebrating. That message has gone home and Hamas is keeping the border mostly quiet, after having denied for years that it could do this. Assad too can not fail to have noticed the firming up of Israel's defense posture.

Israel's new defense posture is the only realistic one in a tough neighbourhood, and one which impresses an arab world let down terribly by this effete American administration. Just to ram home the message, Netanyahu appointed Moshe Yaalon as defense minister, a no nonsense man prepared to fight fire with fire, as we see from the various bonfires Israel set over Damascus lately. Assad knows that if he is seen to be transferring game changing technology into Lebanon, he will invite attack from Israel. So far Assad's response has been close to nil, knowing that Israel unlike the USA is now after years of unsuccessful appeasement of its arab neighbours, now prepared to go all out to protect its vital interests. Israeli actions have brought Russia into the neighbourhood, but Russia knows there is little it can do in effect if Israel is determined to protect its interests, and Israel leaves little room for doubt about that nowadays.

Russia's Putin is a cold hearted, brutal yet calculating ex KGB General. He will not be interested in going head to head with Israel. Once upon a time the USA put its nuclear assets on alert when Russia threatened to intervene massively, to attack Israel directly. Putin knows this can't happen under an Obama administration, but then Israel is not the country of 1967 or 1973. Russian warships would most likely end up in Davy Jones' locker within minutes of beginning hostilities with Israel. Very possibly Israel already has the answer to the S300 missiles. Russia's best engineers did emigrate to Israel, and Israel is if maybe not the world's premier electronic superpower, it is second only to the USA.

So Russia has sailed its gunboats to make the point that it also has interests regarding Syria, will supply the S300 and let the sunni world know that it is firmly in the shia orbit. This is not necessarily a good policy for Russia to take, but it long ago chose Baathist Syria as its ally and it now has little choice but to support it. Russia is however mistaken in being so closely allied to Syria. Like Iran and Hezbollah, it has made its position all too clear.

And for Hezbollah the results are all too plain to see. Hezbollah is now in the fight of its life, a fight it can not win. As Hezbollah gets drained of blood, it will need to call for reinforcements from Iran. It is hard to see Lebanese shiites apart from Hezbollah radicals having a large stomache for fighting in Syria. Iran is going to have to send its cohorts in ever greater numbers into the killing fields of Syria. And as the shi'ites up the ante, so will sunnis, and this will be the end of Lebanon, just as Syria no longer exists in anything but name.

As I said before, Germany needed an awful bloodletting to pound its imperialist and racist nazi ideology out of it. Since Frederick the Great Prussia-Germany developed a militarized society that glorified death and destruction to others, a message we are wont to hear from radical muslims.

But there will come a point, a tipping point when muslims as with Germany will forget their glorification of jihad, of conquest, of murdering the infidel, and just wish to sit at home with the family, in a chair without fear of being shot. This point is not near, it is not even on the horizon. For such a radical ideology of jihad that is encompassed in the Qur'an  to be overcome in islamist societies, the bloodletting will need to be such that every family, just as in  Germany can claim a victim or more.

Almost every family in Germany had children without fathers, people mutilated in many and various ways. Almost every large town in Germany received one or more visits from USAF or RAF bombers. Terror,  Totalkrieg and Blitzkrieg might have been fun when being dished out by the Wehrmacht and Luftwaffe, but when good german families never knew when they might receive a night time thousand bomber visit courtesy of 'bomber Harris' the lust for war slowly became a terror of war.

Germany is now the most pacifistic nation on earth.

I look forwards to a time when arab and other countries in the islamic world such as Iran are similarly peaceful, lusting after peace. But they have an ideology that needs to be beaten out of them, slowly and surely in such a manner that for generations muslims will know the evils of war. The lesson must be leaerned that nobody wins from war. This lesson is now in process of being realized, in a terrible but necessary manner.

The fascist Qur'anic ideology of Jihad will not burn itself out overnight. The Islamic World War has only just begun. Psychologists talk of 'overlearning' as being the best means to cement knowledge in memory. The arab world needs this cruel 'overlearning' to extirpate wahabism and shia extremism and all the other islamic forms of fascism.

Pity the innocent children who have to suffer because of the sins of their fathers, of a fascist creed they learned from genocidal preachers and which they are now trying to  put into effect. Sadly this war must be waged, experienced and above all remembered for the lessons of peace and coexistence to be learned.
