Israel recruits bloggers for Gaza aftermath

Tue, 20 Jan 2009 10:20:56 GMT Israel’s Immigrant Absorption Ministry says it is recruiting an “army of bloggers” in the aftermath of the military operation in Gaza.

According to Haaretz, the team will consist of Israelis who speak a second language — English, French, Spanish or German — to represent Israel in “anti-Zionist blogs”.

The aggression against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip and the Hamas resistance movement left at least 1,300 people dead, and thousands others wounded.

According to the Gaza-based Palestinian center for human rights, only 95 resistance fighters were among the casualties of the 23-day war.

The massive number of civilian casualties in the densely-populated coastal sliver sparked worldwide condemnation. A fierce controversy was also provoked over the alleged use of white phosphorus, also known by the military as WP or Willie Pete, by the Israeli army in Gaza.

According to the Israeli Immigrant Absorption Ministry, Tel Aviv has sought to negate the bad publicity of its actions in Gaza with the help of an online team.

“We turned to this enormous reservoir of more than a million people with a second mother tongue” to contribute to this campaign, the ministry’s director general, Erez Halfon, said.

Keep in mind a war has been waged on the media.  Fair.org points out in the below video NPR was hammered for not favoring Israel when covering the Israeli Palestinian conflict.  NPR became silent on Zionist human rights abuse.

Be sure to check out my last post on Rabbi’s Against Zionism

I would like to revisit some history I brought up in my post on Constantine’s Sword, and the statements of Rabbi’s against Zionism.  Rabbi Weiss has stated Zionism is an expression of nationalism to create a Jewish state.  Judaism is the religion belief held by the Jews.   Rabbi Weiss claims true Jews of the Jewish faith do not support Zionism.

Rabbi Weiss has also stated Zionism was started by Jewish Atheists from areas of Europe like the Soviet Union.  It would appear to be true based on the history below.  Zionism was a movement, not an expression of Jewish faith.

Roman rule. In 63 63 B.C. Roman troops invaded Judah and it came under Roman Control. The Romans called the area Judea. Jesus Chris was born in Bethlehem in the early years of Roman rule. Roman rulers put down Jewish revolts of Roman rule. Roman rulers put down Jewish revolts in A.D. 66 and A.D. 132. In A.D. 135, the Romans drive the Jews out of Jerusalem.

The Zionist movement. Beginning in the late 1800’s, oppression of Jews in Eastern Europe set off a mass emigration of Jewish refugees. Some Jews formed a movement called Zionism, which sought to make Palestine an independent Jewish nation.

World War II and the division of Palestine. (Paragraph 2) The United nations Special Commission on Palestine recommended that Palestine be divided into an Arab state and a Jewish state. The commission called for Jerusalem to be put under International control. The UN General Assembly adopted this plan on Nov. 29 1947. The Jews accepted the UN decision, but the Arabs rejected it. Fighting broke out immediately.

United Nations History of Palestine:

The Palestine problem became an international issue towards the end of the First World War with the disintegration of the Turkish Ottoman Empire. Palestine was among the several former Ottoman Arab territories which were placed under the administration of Great Britain under the Mandates System adopted by the League of Nations pursuant to the League’s Covenant (Article 22) .

All but one of these Mandated Territories became fully independent States, as anticipated. The exception was Palestine where, instead of being limited to “the rendering of administrative assistance and advice” the Mandate had as a primary objective the implementation of the “Balfour Declaration” issued by the British Government in 1917, expressing support for “the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people”.

During the years of the Palestine Mandate, from 1922 to 1947, large-scale Jewish immigration from abroad, mainly from Eastern Europe took place, the numbers swelling in the 1930s with the notorious Nazi persecution of Jewish populations. Palestinian demands for independence and resistance to Jewish immigration led to a rebellion in 1937, followed by continuing terrorism and violence from both sides during and immediately after World War II. Great Britain tried to implement various formulas to bring independence to a land ravaged by violence. In 1947, Great Britain turned the problem over to the United Nations.

Update 1: Rabbi Weiss claims there are Jews living in Iran.  This video (embedding was disabled) appears to show that is correct: Jews Undercover in Iran .

Why is Zionism bad?

Many of the people in the Bush administration are considered to be Zionists.  People like Richard Perle, and Douglas Feith.  These men helped craft the Iraq War. The Bush administration was waging a holy war, but the target was Muslim’s in the Middle East.  Perhaps this is simply something Carroll neglected to point out.

William Kristol could be considered to be a Zionist, and was a friend to the Bush administration.  Kristol is the Chairman of the Project for a New American Century.  An organization dedicated to US world military dominance.  You can watch an interview with William Kristol and Douglas Feith in John Pilgers Breaking Silence.

George Washington’s Farewell Address

So likewise, a passionate attachment of one nation for another produces a variety of evils. Sympathy for the favorite nation, facilitating the illusion of an imaginary common interest in cases where no real common interest exists, and infusing into one the enmities of the other, betrays the former into a participation in the quarrels and wars of the latter without adequate inducement or justification. It leads also to concessions to the favorite nation of privileges denied to others which is apt doubly to injure the nation making the concessions; by unnecessarily parting with what ought to have been retained, and by exciting jealousy, ill-will, and a disposition to retaliate, in the parties from whom equal privileges are withheld. And it gives to ambitious, corrupted, or deluded citizens (who devote themselves to the favorite nation), facility to betray or sacrifice the interests of their own country, without odium, sometimes even with popularity; gilding, with the appearances of a virtuous sense of obligation, a commendable deference for public opinion, or a laudable zeal for public good, the base or foolish compliances of ambition, corruption, or infatuation.

Bill Maher

An example of Atheist Zionism (Israeli nationalism)

Update: Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

This video was brought to you by Representative Press

Religulous is a movie that’s funny at times, but Bill Maher has a way of insulting people who don’t share the correct view–his view. It would be good to see the full footage on many of these interviews to see what the people actually had to say who fell victim to this documentary.

I do believe Bill Maher makes some good points, but you can’t ever get people to listen to you by insulting them. What Bill does is get people who already agree with him to laugh at the torment they would like to inflict, while driving yet another wedge between Secularists and the Christians.

Even though Bill Maher is an Atheist, he’s a Zionist. That strikes me as pretty strange. Bill Interviews Rabi Weiss, but doesn’t let the poor guy get a word in edgewise.

I would like to share what Rabi Wiess actually has to say. I believe Bill Maher slandered the man because he speaks out against Zionism and Atheism. I find Rabi Wiess’ claim that Zionists are Atheists a bit odd, but man is preaching for peace.

Bill Maher condemns Rabi Weiss for meeting with Mahmoud Ahmadinejad The problem is we have been lied to about what Mahmoud Ahmadinejad actually has to say.

Ahmad points out Bill Clinton implemented such sanctions as well, but he only pursued sanctions approved by the U.N. Security Council.

Barack Obama has the same advisors Bill Clinton had when he implemented the “Oil For Food” program.

Were the U.N. sanctions such a great thing? They didn’t do much to Saddam, but they did kill half a million Iraqi children. The U.N. sanctions denied basic necessities like medical equipment, antibiotics, vaccines, cancer medication, and morphine for dying cancer patients.

Iraq has a lot of cancer patients because the U.S. and Brittan used shells coated with depleted uranium while bombing Iraq, and they did it for years.
