Thinking the unthinkable about Lebanon, shiites and Hezbollah

I read this article by Jonathan Spyer about sunni restlesness in Lebanon after I wrote my article about why Israel should support the Kurds.

Spyer sees the Arab or rather Sunni Islamic Spring coming to Lebanon soon. Should this happen, Israel will very possibly find the Hezbollah threat replaced with an effective unitary islamic state from Turkey right down to Egypt, in effect a new caliphate (Jordan would not last beyond tomorrow without Israel's suppport, and would Israel be prepared to intervene even there in a civil war, Syrian style?).

This adds a further impetus for Israel to act now, to reach out to Kurds so that they will take this once in a century opportunity to change the fate of their people.

A Syrian-Iraqi Kurdish state will put the fear of God (if they don't have it already) into Iran and Turkey with their own large populations of Kurds.

But what is moreover interesting is what will happen on Israel's northern border.

If Syria falls to the islamist sunnis, Hezbollah will find it very difficult to be resupplied by Iran, (which might also find its own populations revolting again if the economic problems get much worse).

As the region goes Sunni, Israel could very well find that Hezbollah has its back to the wall, and that shiites in Lebanon discover that Israel isn't their most pressing and hated enemy after all. As Spyer said, allegiences change in Lebanon, and nothing can be ruled out.

Israel might yet find that it has another opportunity in Lebanon and it should be prepared to reach out to the shiite community there. Israel might even soon find that Lebanese shiites come knocking on its door, and not with the intention of kidnapping soldiers either. Israel must be prepared to think laterally.

And if you say that Nasrallah is an implaccable foe, I refer you to the fate of his predecessor:

Nasrallah became the leader of Hezbollah after the Israelis assassinated the previous leader, Musawi in 1992

The US flirts with Syrian Islamists, but Israel's interests lie with the Kurds

Israel has now got a rare opportunity to tilt the strategic balance in the region in its favour and to right a historic injustice.

Israel has found itself between a rock and a hard place with regard to Syria as both sides in the civil war are implaccable foes of Israel (ditto Egypt as nationalists and islamists are in wholehearted agreement when it comes to Israel) . The military opposition which will bring Assad down is mostly made up of islamists. They have the fanatical motivation, the finances and the weapons. The weapons and finance come courtesy of Saudi Arabia and Qatar, with even more finance and non military supplies and very possibly special forces aid being provided courtsesy of Britain and the US.

The UK and the US can never resist interfering in far flung theaters of war, even when they only half understand the dynamics of a conflict. Libya should have been a salutary lesson, having brought anti-western fanatics and Al Qaidah into power in that now fractured country. Ghadaffi was a broken reed, no threat at all to the west, and for the last ten years even cooperating with the west. But Obama doesn't see west hating islamists as a threat. He's even now trying to strong arm Egypt's Tantawi to handing power over to the Muslim Brotherhood's Morsi.

And islamists from the Libyan conflict have moved to destabilise surrounding countries. Mali is now split, with fanatical islamists controlling the north. Shariah along with its 'merciful' punishments are now the norm. Even mosques aren't safe when of the wrong pedigree.

But the US under Obama is determined to support the Syrian islamists to overthrow Assad, a nasty piece of work if ever there was one. But as Russia supports Assad Obama is bringing the west again into conflict with Russia for no good reason. Assad might be an enemy of the west, but the islamists that will replace Assad are no more friendly. And western aid is going to the islamists, as Obama's best friend in the middle-east PM Erdogan of Turkey is the channel through which US support is being funneled to the the opposition.

Israelis are giving Syrian refugees aid, and Israel should leave it at that. There is no reason for Israel to mix in the civil war. If Assad falls, Hezbollah is in serious trouble and Iran will be pushed out of the region as far as Iraq. But then Israel will face an almost continuous islamist front from Turkey down to Egypt.

I hope when Netanyahu received Putin the other week in Jerusalem, he reassured Putin that Israel has no intention of helping to overthrow Assad.

But that doesn't mean Israel should do nothing. It is in Israel's interests to see Syria weakened, to lose its Kurdish provinces, and for those provinces to unite in however loose a form with the Iraqi autonomous Kurdish regime (a state by any other name). The Kurds are not arabs and are have no love for Iran and Turkey. The Kurds are also increasingly restive in Syria, having no love for that regime either.

So whilst the UK and the USA follow their misguided policy of aiding islamists everywhere and in Turkey, and in promoting the islamists in Syria, Israel can follow a parallel policy of aiding the Kurds to realise their state in part of Syria.

The spin off from aiding the Kurds in Syria is that Iran's convoys will be less secure having to traverse a route close to an ally of Israel. Syria will also have to watch its back in future conflicts with Israel. All this is independent on whether Syria does or does not fall to the islamists.

The Kurds in Turkey are forever restive, already are 20% of the population there and increasing in population as opposed to ethnic Turks who have a reproductive rate less than replacement level. Turkey is going to find it increasingly difficult to control the Kurdish east in coming years, to prevent Turkish Kurds with a high birth rate from breaking away from Turkey to form an alliance with Syrian and Iraqi Kurds.

If Israel wishes to protect its interests in the middle-east, it should be aiding Kurds who are at least in sympathy with Israel than waste its limited resources on Syrian refugees who have no love for Israel.

Israel needs to train Kurds for the day they will become independent and now is the best time to initiate the process. If the Assad regime does fall or is seriously weakened, a nascent Kurdish army will be armed and made ready to take over the eastern provinces of Syria, just as the Haganah defeated the palestine arabs even before the British Mandatory regime left in 1948.

It will soon be time for the Kurds to rise and unite with Iraqi autonomous Kurds.

Israel should not let this opportunity slip to radically alter the map in the middle-east. At one and the same time it will begin the process of righting a historical injustice against the kurds committed by British imperialists who split the Kurdish nation between four countries; it will also drive an ethnic wedge into the arab middle-east, an ally against Israel's major arab and Iranian enemies to the east.

And lastly Turkey which has turned itself into an enemy state working against Israel on all levels internationally has no good options. It has threatened to invade Syria to stop the Kurds gaining independence, but if Israel trains kurds now, Turkey will find it bites off more than it can chew when fighting to suppress the Kurds.

A Turkish military invasion of Syria and campaign against the Syrian Kurds will very possibly be too much to resist for the Ottomanist islamist Erdogan, but this will bleed an already shaky Turkish economy and non too efficient Turkish military whose top commanders are mostly in prison. Israel must train Kurds not only to fight for their independence but again, as with the Haganah, prepare them to regroup into armies once their independence needs to be defended. This will be easier than in 1948 as the Iraqi kurds already have an army.

A Turkey with its hands full in the east will be less of a problem for Israel in the west.

For Israel to give the kurds the sort of support they need, Israel has to finally understand that Turkey is now lost to islamists. Turks understand this, but Israel still doesn't seem to fully realise that it has lost its erstwhile ally. And this despite Erdogan trying very hard to help Israel get the message.

Israel is finding doors closed to it wherever Turkey has influence, such as in Nato, and even a US sponsored conference on terror. Of course the Obama administration preferred to give in to Turkish blackmail and deinvite Israel rather than face down Erdogan and support its real ally.

And let's not forget the Mavi Marmara episode deliberately designed by Erdogan to bring about a rupture between Israel and Turkey. And then the war threats last year, the sending of Turksih warships off the coasts of Cyprus and Israel. And the warships are still there.

So we must be thankful to Erdogan to that extent. It's better the enemy you know, than to have Turkey stringing Israel along, giving Israel hope for a reestablishment of the old friendship.

That water is now under the bridge and Israel must reach out to the Kurds.

I haven't found the time to supply links in support of the above article. If you think links would be helpful then i'll try to find time to oblige.

When an arab wins a talent show in Israel this is a new BBC opportunity

The BBC can not change its spots. Ever since its inception in the 1930's it has propagandised against jews and Israel. So an arab winning a TV talent show is an opportunity not to praise Israel's open and non- discriminatory society but the very opposite. To stress that this israeli arab is a 'palestinian' who is discriminated against just like sepharadim supposedly are in Israel is just grist to the daily dish of BBC hatred against jews and Israel. Of course an anti-Israeli jewish reporter is used in evidence for the allegations.

Yesterday's offering from the BBC was its highlighting in its health section of an orthodox, black garbed Israeli jew who was caught selling human organs. The BBC journalist who found that must have been ecstatic. Strangely the article has been moved off the front page. The massive Chinese trade in body parts, after first executing the donors is of little interest to the BBC.

The old BBC, the old hatred, all the old tropes.

Rosenbaum traded in organs to the delight of the BBC

BBC uses every opportunity to bash Israel, as here with Nisren Kader winning Israeli song contest

Mizrahim arrived in Israel from countries like Morocco, Tunisia, Iraq, Yemen and Iran in the years following its establishment.

They were met with condescension by the European establishment who saw them as inferior and threatening because of their resemblance to the perceived Arab enemy.

They are a group that is still under-represented in Israel's institutions of power and are economically disadvantaged.

Rachel Shabi, a Mizrahi journalist who has written extensively on the subject, says Palestinians and Jews from the Middle East suffer a similar type of cultural discrimination in Israel.

"Ultimately nationalism trumps everything," she explains. "If you have this entry card called Jewish you will be less discriminated against than if you are Palestinian, but there are shades of discrimination and I think the thing that they both share - Palestinians and Jews from the Middle East - is cultural discrimination dictated by the European minority."

"If you look at Israel, how it presents itself is European, despite a majority population which is Middle Eastern, if you combine the Palestinian Israelis and Jews of Arab or Muslim lands."

Despite several areas of common ground, there is no real closeness between Israel's Arab citizens - who mostly identify as Palestinian and make up about 20% of the population - and the Mizrahim.

The jewish people doesn't need enemies when it has 'friends' like Obama and J Street

Obama bows low before the Saudi King whilst his J Street front attacks Israel

  The establishment of the democratic State of Israel against all the odds is among the greatest of the Jewish People's achievements. Although the odds are still loaded heavily against Israel a country of 7 millions the country not only survives but has managed to build a world reputation for excellence in many fields, not least that of medical science. The latest life saving invention is that of a non-invasive method of evaluating bodily fluids in patients with sepsis. This invention will very possibly save hundreds of thousands of lives each year throughout the world.

Along with greatness, our people have great weaknesses, many amongst us who for their own reasons decide to sell out their people, whether because of a marxist ideology, anachronistic bundism, self-enrichment or advancement or in an attempt to curry favour with gentile society, often, but not always inimical to Israel.

It is not difficult to identify formerly jewish enemies of our people, from the admitted genius of Chomsky to the pathetic sycophantic British establishment wanabee Jonathan Miller who signed up to a boycott of Habima's recent production of Shylock at the Globe theatre international festival. Miller did not involve himself in boycotting the Syrian actors who took part whilst their President slaughters their people, just the jews. As such Miller placed himself outside the bounds of our people, an enemy of the one country which affords full rights to arabs living there.

Obama always used front groups and individuals to attack Israel

J Street which purports to be 'pro Israel' was set up suspiciously near to the election of Obama in 2008. It has consistently aligned itself with Obama administration policies attacking Israel.  Rather than being pro Israel J Street is a trojan horse, an organisation headed by anti-Israeli jews and funded opaquely. One supporter has been speculator Soros, another former jew is known only for his demonisation of Israel and funding for its opponents.

J Street was established in order to counterbalance AIPAC and other organisations supporting Israel, to promote arab inspired propaganda, to support palestinian positions and to undermine Israel in the USA by showing Israel and its government's policies in a negative light. When a jew or a non jew hears arguments attacking Israel from a supposedly pro Israel and jewish source there is more chance they will believe them than when coming from an openly pro arab source. As such, the Obama administration has been running a black propaganda effort against Israel for years now.

And now before the elections J Street has dropped the fig leaf, and openly begun to campaign against Israel's friends in Congress under the guise of promoting peace.

Until recently, according to J Street spokeswoman Jessica Rosenblum, “J Street has been working defensively, standing up for candidates who stake out pro-peace, pro- Israel positions. Now we’re taking it to the next level.”

The ads represent a new offensive posture of going after politicians whom the organization believes hurt the cause of peace between Israelis and Palestinians.

A look at J Street's website shows that it has no criticism for Palestinians who have never stopped their anti-semitic incitement against jews and their constant terror against Israel.


J Street attacks only Israel for understanding the depth of arab hatred for Israel, that there is no peace on offer. Where are J Street's condemnations for the palestinian advocacy of the  'one state solution' where arabs are constantly exhorted by its leadership to aspire to 'return'  to Haifa and Tel-Aviv?

"J Street is very concerned by the tremendous amount of financial support flowing into the Romney campaign and into Super PACs supporting it from individuals like Sheldon Adelson and Irving Moskowitz who adamantly oppose a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict."

Where is the condemnation of arab anti-semitism such as that of the present Mufti of Jerusalem who only a few months ago called for the annihilation of the Jewish People? 

"The Hour will not come until you fight the Jews. The Jews will hide behind stones or trees. Then the stones or trees will call: Oh Muslim, servant of Allah, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him."

It must not be forgotten that the Mufti was attending the 47th Anniversary of Fatah, a supposedly secular terror organisation committed to Israel's destruction and responsible for the murder of hundreds of jews. The Mufti was introduced by the Fatah spokesman describing jews as 'sons of apes and pigs'. Palestinian President Abbas is the head of Fatah.

J Street peddles the myth that a two state solution is possible whilst arabs are bent on the destruction of Israel and daily call for the killing of jews. J Street seems unaware that the calls to kill jews are broadcast at every level of society, on Palestinian TV, to adults and even children. J Street whose efforts at propaganda against Israel is directed overwhelmingly at undermining americans' sympathy with the tiny country, is an anti-semitic organisation. Although J Street is awash with money from largely unknown sources to fund paid adverts against our christian friends it will not succeed. Thank you  Representatives Joe Walsh and Allen West for refusing to be intimidated.

Jews recognise that our best friends are often christians, americans who know what is right whether they are Republican or Democrats. They understand that Israel is America's best and most true ally, that all Soros' and Saudi oil money to NGO's dedicated to the destruction of Israel (and ultimately the USA as well) won't undermine the lasting relationship between Israel and America, two democracies always threatened and under attack.

"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

Obama's new attempt to put Israel off attacking Iran, this time regarding 'accurate' Iranian missiles

We had this in 2007 concerning Iran:

A new assessment by American intelligence agencies concludes that Iran halted its nuclear weapons program in 2003 and that the program remains frozen, contradicting judgment two years ago that Tehran was working relentlessly toward building a nuclear bomb.

And now we have near constant reports such as the one below, about how Israel will supposedly only be able to put back the Iranian nuclear program by a year, and that even the USA can't do the job........

This latest Pentagon report is just more blather, of american intelligence linked strategists led by Obama who are working non stop to dissuade Israel by any means from taking responsibility for its fate and attacking Iran. Of course Israel now only has a tiny window of opportunity to attack Iran's program before it goes fully underground and not vulnerable to conventional bombing. Obama is constantly working to reduce that window, by using black propaganda against Israel and by threats and cajoling. Israel last year said it only had until this October to attack, and now we hear that Israel won't attack before November so as not to upset....... Obama and his election.

Netanyahu the mature politician and statesman ran rings around Obama last year, turning the tables completely. Obama had surprised Netanyahu as he was on the way to the US with a demand for the Israeli withdrawal to the 1967 'borders' with 'mutual swaps.' When Obama then tried to push his betrayal at the G20, Canada scotched the plan. But Netanyahu is sailing very close to the wind now. Israel will suffer from attacking Iran, but there seems little choice, Iran must not be allowed to have nuclear weapons no matter what the cost. Ahmadinejad and his lunatic minions and media remind us of the necessity of pulling their sting almost daily now. And attack Israel must. It is time for Netanyahu to ignore Obama, attack and then explain why to the American people. Americans will most likely be most understanding, as unlike Obama, they have the measure of the threat from Iran, and they've not forgotten Khomeini's hostages.

From the Jerusalem Post:

Iran’s military has "boosted the lethality and effectiveness of existing" ballistic missile systems with "accuracy improvements and new sub-munition payloads," according to a Pentagon report. Portions of the document were declassified on Wednesday after having been presented to Congress last week.

The Pentagon report, obtained by Bloomberg, specifically notes that Iran's short-range ballistic missiles are evolving toward an operational ability to target sea vessels.

Iran's military improvements are occurring in parallel with regular ballistic-missile training that “continues throughout the country” and the addition of “new ships and submarines,” the report concluded.

The report repeats the long-standing US assessment that Iran with “sufficient foreign assistance may be technically capable of flight-testing” an intercontinental ballistic missile by 2015.

In February 2012, Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz said in a CNBC interview that Israel estimates Iranian missiles will soon be capable of reaching the United States.

Iran is investing billions of dollars, Steinitz said, to develop inter-continental ballistic missiles. "We estimate that in two to three years they will have the first inter-continental ballistic missiles that can reach the east coast of America."

Iran also continues to develop ballistic missiles which can reach regional adversaries, Israel and Eastern Europe, including an extended-range variant of the Shahab-3 and a 2,000 kilometer medium-range ballistic missile, said the Pentagon report.

The report also disclosed that Iran is improving the "survivability" of its missile arsenal, code for saying that Iran has strengthened its missile counter-measures against potential attacks.

Don't reject out of hand christians who come with messages of love for the Jewish People

Tomorrow I am in Israel for a week and will possibly be unable to post anything until my return. One of the things I shall be doing is visiting a development town where there is possibly some stealthy missionary activity happening.

I may be wrong, and I hope i'm wrong, because christians who love jews should not be automatically dismissed as having an ulterior motive of effectively wiping out the jewish people. We have had so many bad experiences that we have maybe become all too cynical and afraid of even those who mean us well.

I believe that nowadays there are christian groups who love us as jews, who accept that their salvation will come about through the jewish people, and not by replacing them, and that they deserve a fair hearing.

We must be very careful about branding all christians with the same brush, but welcome those who love us, whilst treating with just contempt the Bishop Tutus of this world, those who come mealy mouthed to us, professing love but whose only motivation is that of hate, of a desire to attack our people, to subvert jews by undermining Israel, by painting it as an 'apartheid' state, who wish to convert us. Jews are always under attack by so many foes.

So we have to be careful, but at the same time we must not subject our real christian friends to an inverted prejudice along the lines that "all christians are the same", all are that man who has made himself an enemy of our people, Tutu. Just we object when anti-semites aver that "all jews are the same" (mean, crafty, perfidious, wow so many epithets are flooding into my consciousness..... i'd better stop here) we must not fall into the same trap of hating christians.

I'm getting happy just at the thought of being in Israel tomorrow.

Those 'powerful' Jews

What is it about the worship of power and islam? Why the obsession with jews? It would sometimes be nice to have a little power, especially when faced by officialdom, but the worship of power is possibly at the center of why islamic countries are scraping the bottom as far as development and achievments. In islamic societies exercising power leads to an awful lot of bloodshed within the family and outside of it. Maybe if muslims worshipped power and obsessed about jews a little less, there would be more room for them to develop their societies and countries.

Why are Jews so powerful and Muslims so powerless?

 by Dr. Farrukh Saleem
 January 8, 2010

There are only 14 million Jews in the world; seven million in the Americas, five million in Asia, two million in Europe and 100,000 in Africa. For every single Jew in the world there are 100 Muslims. Yet, Jews are more than a hundred times more powerful than all the Muslims put together. Ever wondered why?

Jesus of Nazareth was Jewish. Albert Einstein, the most influential scientist of all time and TIME magazine's 'Person of the Century', was a Jew. Sigmund Freud - ego, superego - the father of psychoanalysis was a Jew. So were Karl Marx, Paul Samuelson and Milton Friedman.

Here are a few other Jews whose intellectual output has enriched the whole of humanity: Benjamin Rubin gave humanity the vaccinating needle. Jonas Salk developed the first polio vaccine. Alert Sabin developed the improved live polio vaccine. Gertrude Elion gave us a leukemia-fighting drug. Baruch Blumberg developed the vaccination for Hepatitis B. Paul Ehrlich discovered a treatment for syphilis (a sexually transmitted disease). Elie Metchnikoff won a Nobel Prize in infectious diseases.

Bernard Katz won a Nobel Prize in neuromuscular transmission. Andrew Schally won a Nobel in endocrinology (disorders of the endocrine system; diabetes, hyperthyroidism). Aaron Beck founded Cognitive Therapy (psychotherapy to treat mental disorders, depression and phobias). Gregory Pincus developed the first oral contraceptive pill. George Wald won a Nobel for furthering our understanding of the human eye. Stanley Cohen won a Nobel in embryology (study of embryos and their development). Willem Kolff came up with the kidney dialysis machine.

Over the past 105 years, 14 million Jews have won 180 Nobel Prizes while only 3 Nobel Prizes have been won by 1.4 billion Muslims (other than Peace Prizes).

Why are Jews so powerful? Stanley Mezor invented the first micro-processing chip. Leo Szilard developed the first nuclear chain reactor; Peter Schultz, the optical fibre cable; Charles Adler - traffic lights; Benno Strauss - stainless steel; Isador Kisee - sound movies; Emile Berliner - the telephone microphone and Charles Ginsburg - the videotape recorder.

Famous financiers in the business world who belong to the Jewish faith include Ralph Lauren (Polo), Levis Strauss (Levi's Jeans), Howard Schultz (Starbuck's) , Sergey Brin (Google), Michael Dell (Dell Computers), Larry Ellison (Oracle), Donna Karan (DKNY), Irv Robbins (Baskins & Robbins) and Bill Rosenberg (Dunkin Donuts).

Richard Levin, President of Yale University, is a Jew. So are Henry Kissinger (American secretary of state), Alan Greenspan (Federal Chairman of Banking under Reagan, Bush, Clinton and Bush, Jr.), Joseph Lieberman, Senator, Madeleine Albright (former Secretary of State), Maxim Litvinov (USSR Foreign Minister), David Marshal (Singapore's first Chief Minister), Issac Isaacs (Governor-General of Australia), Benjamin Disraeli (British statesman and author), Yevgeny Primakov (Russian Prime Minister), Jorge Sampaio (President of Portugal), Herb Gray (Canadian Deputy Prime Minister), Pierre Mendes (French Prime Minister), Michael Howard (British Home Secretary), Bruno Kreisky (Chancellor of Austria) and Robert Rubin (former Secretary of the Treasury).

In the media, famous Jews include Wolf Blitzer (CNN), Barbara Walters (ABC News), Eugene Meyer (Washington Post), Henry Grunwald (Editor-in-Chief of Time Magazine), Katherine Graham (publisher of The Washington Post), Joseph Lelyyeld (Executive Editor, The New York Times), and Max Frankel (New York Times).

Can you name the most beneficent philanthropist in the history of the world? The name is George Soros, a Jew, who has so far donated a colossal $4 billion; most of which has gone as aid to scientists and universities around the world. Second to George Soros is Walter Annenberg, another Jew, who has built a hundred libraries by donating an estimated $2 billion.

At the Olympics, Mark Spitz set a record of sorts by wining seven gold medals. Lenny Krayzelburg is a three-time Olympic gold medalist. Spitz, Krayzelburg and Boris Becker (Tennis) are all Jewish.

Did you know that Harrison Ford, George Burns, Tony Curtis, Charles Bronson, Sandra Bullock, Barbra Streisand, Billy Crystal, Woody Allen, Paul Newman, Peter Sellers, Dustin Hoffman, Michael Douglas, Ben Kingsley, Kirk Douglas, William Shatner, Jerry Lewis and Peter Falk are all Jewish?

As a matter of fact, Hollywood itself was founded by a Jew. Among directors and producers, Steven Spielberg, Mel Brooks, Oliver Stone, Aaron Spelling (Beverly Hills 90210), Neil Simon (The Odd Couple), Andrew Vaina (Rambo's 1, 2 and 3), Michael Mann (Starsky and Hutch), Milos Forman (One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest), Douglas Fairbanks (The Thief of Baghdad) and Ivan Reitman (Ghostbusters) are all Jewish.

To be certain, Washington is the capital that matters and in Washington the lobby that matters is The American Israel Public Affairs Committee, or AIPAC. Washington knows that if PM Ehud Olmert were to discover that the earth is flat, AIPAC will make the 109th Congress pass a resolution congratulating Olmert on his discovery.

William James Sidis, with an IQ of 250-300, is the brightest human who ever existed. Guess what faith did he belong to?

So, why are Jews so powerful?

Answer: Education!

Why are Muslims so powerless?

There are an estimated 1,476,233,470 Muslims on the face of the planet: one billion in Asia, 400 million in Africa, 44 million in Europe and six million in the Americas. Every fifth human being is a Muslim. For every single Hindu there are two Muslims, for every Buddhist there are two Muslims and for every Jew there are one hundred Muslims. Ever wondered why Muslims are so powerless?

Here is why: There are 57 member-countries of the Organization of Islamic Conference (OIC), and all of them put together have around 500 universities; one university for every three million Muslims. The United States has 5,758 universities (1 for every 57,000 Americans) and India has 8,407. In 2004, Shanghai Jiao Tong University compiled an 'Academic Ranking of World Universities', and intriguingly, not one university from Muslim-majority states was in the top 500.

As per data collected by the UNDP, literacy in the Christian world stands at nearly 90 per cent and 15 Christian-majority states have a literacy rate of 100 per cent. A Muslim-majority state, as a sharp contrast, has an average literacy rate of around 40 per cent and there is no Muslim-majority state with a literacy rate of 100 per cent. Some 98 per cent of the 'literates' in the Christian world had completed primary school, while less than 50 per cent of the 'literates' in the Muslim world did the same. Around 40 per cent of the 'literates' in the Christian world attended university while no more than two per cent of the 'literates' in the Muslim world did the same.

Muslim-majority countries have 230 scientists per one million Muslims. The U.S. has 4,000 scientists per million and Japan has 5,000 per million. In the entire Arab world, the total number of full-time researchers is 35,000 and there are only 50 technicians per one million Arabs (in the Christian world there are up to 1,000 technicians per one million). Furthermore, the Muslim world spends 0.2 per cent of its GDP on research and development, while the Christian world spends around five per cent of its GDP.

Conclusion: The Muslim world lacks the capacity to produce knowledge.

Daily newspapers per 1,000 people and number of book titles per million are two indicators of whether knowledge is being diffused in a society. In Pakistan, there are 23 daily newspapers per 1,000 Pakistanis while the same ratio in Singapore is 360. In the UK, the number of book titles per million stands at 2,000 while the same in Egypt is 20.

Conclusion: The Muslim world is failing to diffuse knowledge.

Exports of high technology products as a percentage of total exports are an important indicator of knowledge application. Pakistan's exports of high technology products as a percentage of total exports stands at one per cent. The same for Saudi Arabia, Kuwait , Morocco , and Algeria (are all at 0.3 per cent) while Singapore is at 58 per cent.

Conclusion: The Muslim world is failing to apply knowledge.

Why are Muslims powerless?

Because we aren't producing knowledge.

Why are Muslims powerless?
 Because we aren't diffusing knowledge.

Why are Muslims powerless?
 Because we aren't applying knowledge.

And, the future belongs to knowledge-based societies.

Interestingly, the combined annual GDP of 57 OIC-countries is under $2 trillion. America, just by herself, produces goods and services worth $12 trillion; China - $8 trillion, Japan - $3.8 trillion and Germany - $2.4 trillion (purchasing power parity basis).

Oil rich Saudi Arabia, UAE, Kuwait and Qatar collectively produce goods and services (mostly oil) worth $500 billion; Spain alone produces goods and services worth over $1 trillion; Catholic Poland - $489 billion and Buddhist Thailand - $545 billion. Muslim GDP, as a percentage of worlds GDP, is fast declining.

So, why are Muslims so powerless?

Answer: Lack of education!

All we do is shouting to Allah the whole day and blame everyone else for our multiple failures.

The jew hating bishop 'reaches out' to a self-hating jew

 Desmond Tutu never seems to pass up on an opportunity to use his status as a Nobel Prize winner to spread a little more hatred of the jewish state of Israel. But his posing as an understanding friend of the jewish faith is surely a low even for him. Tutu should understand that jewish people are not fooled, but know him for what he is, an inveterate enemy, one in a long line of christian priests who used their office to whip up the masses in a frenzy of hatred against us. 

It is not so acceptable nowadays for a good christian to be seen attacking jews, so what better way to get at them than by targetting Israel? An anti-semite can now have the best of both worlds, to beat jews and to feel morally good about himself, doing the Lord's work so to speak.

The journalist below, 'Moira' (I've never heard of a jewish 'Moira' before) has so easily turned her back on judaism because of media misinformation about Israel's allegedly harsh treatment of african people. This Moria most likely only identified herself as jewish all the better to attack the jewish people. She has most likely never seen the inside of a synagogue, or joined in any jewish activities other than to identify with other 'as a jews'. The alleged 'jew' Moira was never part of our people and as such is no loss to Am Yisroel, the people of Israel.


This now former 'jew' Moira however believes that Israel has no right to deport any of the African migrants who have come uninvited to Israel. As of this writing around 100 South Sudanese have been flown back voluntarily to their country after the UNHCR agreed that they no longer had reason to stay as the south of their country is now safe. They were each given $1,300 for not resisting their deportation in the courts. Yes terrible Israel gives every migrant, as with arabs with a gripe against Israel, the right to access its courts. And our South African duo don't notice either that almost the whole israeli political spectrum condemned what violence and racism that has occurred against the migrants.

The media frenzy about Israel centers only on a few racists who have attacked african people in the wake of serious social problems created by many thousands of impoverished migrants living in already deprived neighbourhoods. The fact is that the immigrants have brought with them some difficult social problems, not least the fact that so many lone men living rough has led to a spike in rapes and other violence in the area of South Tel Aviv such that people are now afraid to go out at night. 

This is normal in such deprived neighbourhoods all over the world when new immigrants come in waves to an already established community. It is not so much about racism as poverty and its effects. Tutu and 'jewish' Moira make no attempt to understand the problem before issuing their condemnations of Israel, and also nothing to say about the real racism  using extreme violence of a hundred Sudanese in an arab village Kfar Manda in Israel a couple of weeks ago. I wonder why?

I wonder why Bishop Tutu is not interested in the ethnic cleansing of christians in palestinian areas over the last twenty years? Why does he not mention the fact that Israel is the only country where christians are safe in the middle east? Tutu's crocodile tears are shed for african migrants whilst the original black christians, the Copts are being ethnically cleansed in their hundreds of thousands. And let's not forget a million Iraqi christians who left that country in the last ten years. No crocodile tears for them either.

Our former 'as a jew' Moira might instead of allying herself with the anti-semites have interested herself in the fact that Egyptians shoot and kill many of the migrants even before they get to Israel's border. She might also have interested herself in the 400 missiles fired into Israel from Gaza in the past year, over 12,000 in recent years. But 'our' Moira has no pity for jews, she only identified with jews and judaism in order to attack us.

The fact is Israel has its african migrant problem because of its humanity. For many years politicians sat on their hands because they did not want to send the migrants back to their countries such as Sudan and Eritrea where they might face death. They are not yet being sent back to anywhere other than South Sudan, in full agreement with the South Sudanese authorities and even the UN.

As for Tutu, what is one more christian priest who hates jews amongst the untold thousands in our history. Tutu will soon be forgotten. Israel is eternal.

Tutu reaches out to Jew upset at Israel kicking out Africans

 June 22 2012 at 10:42am

ARCHBISHOP Desmond Tutu has responded to a Capetonian who has stated publicly that she will turn her back on her Jewish roots because of the policies of the Israeli government.

In a letter to the Cape Times, journalist Moira Levy had

said because of Israel’s recent “violent racial repression”, she had cut ties with her past, legacy and family roots “and, painful as it is turned my back on being a Jew”.

Levy questioned Israel’s deporting of Africans. “Israel has declared that the threat they allegedly pose is to the racial purity of the Jewish state. As a Jew and a white South African I have to ask myself if I can continue to be associated with people who’ve learnt from history only the ability to repeat the same horrific mistakes.”

In response, Tutu wrote that he had been moved by Levy’s “anguish… However, please don’t blame your faith for the policies of the people in power.

“When our family behaved wrongly, we did not turn our backs on them, but tried to convince them to steer a fairer course.” Some of the most outspoken apartheid critics, and of Israel, were Jewish. “These compatriots have a unique understanding of discrimination

Morocco, a moderate arab country paranoid about Israel

You'd think that a country known for its relative moderation, situated a couple of thousand miles away from Israel, and with which Israel has a number of links to officialdom  would perhaps reflect this moderation in the attitudes of its people. Not a bit of it.

The danger posed by the arab islamist winter which has not yet come to Morocco can obviously be placed at the feet of Israel and the mossad. And of course, the monolithic Mossad can spare 300 agents to attack the only country in the area that is even partly friendly to it. Paranoid, but that's the arab world.  Everything that goes wrong is as a result of Israel, and maybe that's why nothing ever improves. How can you improve anything if the ever present malign influence of the jew and Israel will frustrate your attempts at the outset?
And the dangers posed by the islamists? Must be the jews again. Tariq Ramadan said so and that's good enough for a Moroccan journalist also regarded as something of a human rights activist. Well Israel knows all about them. Human rights don't extend to jews and self determination for the Jewish People.

"Bensedrine assured that the fire that destroyed the Court of First Instance in Tunis 2, located in Sijoumi, has nothing to do with things "sacred" because the court focuses on business of a financial nature. The fire was intended to burn all the files regarding fraud and enrichment to do with a suspect businessmen Devereux, according an activist.

Moreover, Bensedrine assures us that the Mossad is present in Tunisia in order to derail the democratic process at home and sow discord. This builds on the recent statements of Tariq Ramadan, who said that elements of the Mossad have been introduced to Tunisia under the guise of being Islamists.

Moreover, Abderraouf Layadi, former Secretary General of CPR, informs us that some 300 Mossad agents are presently very active in Tunisia alongside elements of the secret services of an Arab country that he does not wish to name, for proactive security operations according to the media.

Jordanians and the Palestinians, same difference

What is interesting is not so much that Jordan has decided to stop taking away Palestinians' citizenship but the reason why:

The Arabic News Digest quotes the paper Al Quds Al Arabi or the "Arab Jerusalem" as saying in an editorial:

"The Jordanians and the Palestinians are basically one people," the editorial added

 Which only goes to update PLO leader Zahir Muhsein's comments about duping the world:

"The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct 'Palestinian people' to oppose Zionism.

 For tactical reasons, Jordan, which is a sovereign state with defined borders, cannot raise claims to Haifa and Jaffa, while as a Palestinian, I can undoubtedly demand Haifa, Jaffa, Beer-Sheva and Jerusalem. However, the moment we reclaim our right to all of Palestine, we will not wait even a minute to unite Palestine and Jordan."

 Zahir Muhsein
 Palestine Liberation Organization executive committee member

All this is of course patently obvious to anyone with any knowledge of history and how the invention of the so-called 'palestinians' happened, but it is nice when arabs admit it for themselves. Not that it will make any difference to the blinkered masses.

So when 'palestinians' demand a state, we must remind them that they already have one, and it's name is Jordan.
