Jordan bans al Naqba, Palestinian catastrophe day

admin — Fri, 09 May 2008 08:53:27 +0000

On the day that Israeli Jews celebrate the Independence Day, loyal Israeli Arabs, naturally, commemorate their catastrophe. That’s quite a sign of them accepting the Jewish state.
Jordan, a country more sane than the leftist Israel, prohibited its Palestinians to publicly commemorate al Naqba.

Civil war looms in Lebanon

admin — Thu, 08 May 2008 17:00:38 +0000

As Rabbi Kahane used to say, “Peace between Jews and Arabs would be wonderful. Meanwhile, I’m waiting for peace between Arabs and Arabs in Lebanon. It’s so wonderful to see them all living together: Hezbollah, and Amal, and whoever else.”
Hezbollah’s leader Nasrallah announced that he recognizes a symbolic crackdown by th Lebanese government as a declaration of war. The US-propped government of Lebanon which also enjoys tacit support of mainstream Arab regimes, temporarily closed Hezbollah’s TV station for incitement, and fired the security chief of Beirut airport, a notorious venue for smuggling arms from Iran to Hezbollah. Nasrallah vowed to defend his right to bring arms from Iran, though the UN resolution which ended the 2006 war in Lebanon specifically calls for disarming Hezbollah. Of course, the brave peacekeepers tend to ignore that inconvenient clause while Israel screams of Hezbollah’s massive rearmament.
Israel likely pushes the US Administration to take a tougher stance Hezbollah, and indeed both the US, EU, and the Arab regimes grew irritated by Iran-Syria’s meddling in Lebanon. Every Arab country fears for its own Shiite population which Iran can steer at the next step.

admin — Wed, 07 May 2008 18:46:35 +0000

Iran is believed to launch the full-scale uranium enrichment within 6 months, and develops cruise missile flying below the radars. The rhetoric of Israeli leaders as to the hard-line defense of Jewish existence leaves no doubt about the attack on Iran being in tracks. The Bush Administration concurred and steps up various accusations of Iran, including Hezbollah’s connection to training anti-American insurgents for Iraq.

admin — Mon, 05 May 2008 16:30:55 +0000

Iran: the final rejection of nuclear offers

admin — Sun, 04 May 2008 22:12:52 +0000

Iran’s supreme leader ayatollah Khamenei finally made up his mind, announcing that Iran won’t stop its nuclear program. Khamenei was earlier more equivocal and even mildly critical of Ahmadinejad’s standoff with the West. Khamenei likely became firm because of Iran’s major advances in nuclear technology, as Israeli secret services claim.

The West makes an offer Iran can refuse

admin — Sat, 03 May 2008 15:21:58 +0000

The US, EU, Russia prepared an offer for Iran: cease uranium enrichment only for the duration of talks.
This legitimizes Iranian nuclear program: the Western powers recognized that once the talks are broken off, Iran is expected to continue with its nuclear program. Anyway, Iran is unlikely to agree.

Israel imports Israeli gas from Egypt

admin — Fri, 02 May 2008 12:51:59 +0000

The first deliveries of natural gas started through El Arish - Ashkelon pipeline. Israel will buy billions of dollars’ worth of gas from Egypt.
El Arish gas field in Sinai was developed by Jews and belongs to Israel under the title signed by God, as part of the Promised Land. Israel took the place in 1956 but abandoned it under the friendly US pressure. Eisenhower Administration promised, in return, to keep the Tiran Straits open for Israeli shipping, but reneged on that promise in 1967. Israel again re-took the land in 1967 but gave it back under the pressure of Jimmy Carter, who is now labeled anti-Semite and refused audiences with Israel’s political bosses.

Iran against Barbie

admin — Mon, 28 Apr 2008 19:34:54 +0000

Putin arrived in Libya to sign a contract on sale of top-of-the-line Russian MiG and Su fighter jets and other equipment.

Arab states boycott Qatar summit

admin — Tue, 15 Apr 2008 16:59:11 +0000

in response to Israeli FM Livni’s visit. All the signs of normalization and eternal peace with Arabs are there.
Hamas was a lonely voice to refrain from criticizing Livni’s visit. Hamas works hard to get a rapprochement with Israel.

Livni meets Double Zeros

admin — Mon, 14 Apr 2008 16:45:42 +0000

Israeli Foreign Minister Livni traveled to Qatar to meet Omani FM and petty sheikhs of the ridiculous kingdom of Qatar. The real purpose of the visit is to make the US Administration happy with the ongoing peace process.
Israel has low-level relations with Qatar. Arab sheikhs are called “double zeros” for the two circles of black cord on their headdress.

Iran test-fired a 4,000-mile ballistic missile

admin — Fri, 11 Apr 2008 17:41:16 +0000

Iran listens to Israeli cell phones

Libya: No peace with Israel

admin — Sun, 30 Mar 2008 09:38:32 +0000

Though Saudi Arabia presents its “peace initiative” as a panacea for normalizing Israeli relations with all Muslim countries, a grotesque monkey-like Libyan dictator Qaddafi announced that his country would only accept a mixed Jewish-Palestinian state.
No problem with that, actually. Arab enemies already constitute a third of Israel’s young.

Fighting is back on Iraqi streets

admin — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 19:02:45 +0000

The Mahdi Army of an Islamic thug Muqtada Sadr kept the self-imposed cease-fire since August, allowing the US troops to claim pacifying Iraq. For some odd reason, the Americans and Iraqis raided Muqtada’s neighborhoods, arresting hundreds of his supporters. Now the Mahdi Army is back, fighting in Iraqi towns from Baghdad (Sadr district) to Basra.

Olmert to Syria: Love me, not Iran

admin — Thu, 27 Mar 2008 18:52:50 +0000

Olmert confirmed the ongoing secret talks with Syria on “peace” in return for the Golan Heights. The talks are conducted through Turkey. Olmert’s idea is wooing Syria from Iran by peace promises; Israeli Military Intelligence concurs. Why would, however, Syria prefer cold peace with Israel to hot friendship with Iran? Syria doesn’t need peace with Israel; Israel, too, doesn’t need that peace treaty but sues for it.
During their prime ministerial terms, Barak and Netanyahu agreed to give the Golan Heights away to Syria in return for a peace treaty.

while Hezbollah claims to have proof of Israeli involvement. Syria’s silence is meant to exonerate it from Israeli retaliation which would follow Hezbollah’s attacks avenging Mughniyeh.

Egypt signs nuclear treaty with Russia

admin — Sun, 23 Mar 2008 16:46:29 +0000

Mubarak flies to Moscow to sign an agreement on “peaceful” nuclear projects in Egypt. After Iran has pushed through with its peaceful nuclear program, other Muslim countries rushed to follow the suit. Russia helps them all.
Israel will find it very hard to bomb the Egyptian nuclear installations because of the US-guaranteed peace treaty. America gives Egypt huge military aid.

Iranians support Ahmadinejad

admin — Sat, 15 Mar 2008 20:37:46 +0000

Defying international sanctions, Iranians elected pro-Ahmadinejad candidates into Iran’s parliament, apparently making them the largest faction. the US-supported “moderate” ultra-fundamentalist clericals finished long behind. Iran’s Council of Guardian disqualified almost 2,000 independent candidates from running for the elections as they are insufficiently loyal to Islam.

Iran reaches into Iraq

admin — Mon, 03 Mar 2008 18:20:29 +0000

Ahmadinejad visited president, prime minister of Iraq. Iran tries to build coalition with Iraq, drive the US out under the pretense of the situation being calmed down, and then swallow the Shia Iraq into Iran’s sphere of influence.

Syrians prove their peace intentions

admin — Mon, 03 Mar 2008 18:01:08 +0000

Tens of thousands of demonstrators in Syrians chanted, “Death to Israel.” Their professed support of Gazans is laughable, as Syria attempted swallowing Palestine until the 1960s and couldn’t care less about Gazans.

Iran is at war with Israel

admin — Mon, 03 Mar 2008 17:58:21 +0000

Israel’s Military Intelligence officially announced that Grad-type Katyusha rockets fired from Gaza at Israel are made in Iran. No big secret, but Iran’s shipments of military equipment to Hamas amounts to act of war against Israel. Hamas lacks sovereign status and the concomitant right to wage war, like states have. Russia, for example, supplies missiles to Syria, but does so legitimately because Syria is a sovereign state which has a right to warfare. According to international law, Iran’s rocket deliveries to Hamas are illegitimate, and Iran bears full responsibility for rocket attacks on Israel.
So the proper target is Tehran, not Jabaliya.

Egypt opens border to Hamas

admin — Sun, 02 Mar 2008 16:43:58 +0000

Egypt ostensibly means to treat the wounded Palestinians in Sinai hospitals, though the targeted Hamas leaders may escape by that route.

Israel’s schizophrenic justice

admin — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 21:54:25 +0000

Nazareth court denied the petition by captured Hezbollah’s fighters to be treating as POWs rather than criminals. The court called Hezbollah “Iranian assassins.”
If it looks like a duck and flies like a duck, then before the law it is a duck: but Israel refuses recognizing Hezbollah as a legitimate military group.
If Hezbollah is a bunch of Lebanese criminals, Israel had no right to bomb the country of Lebanon over their mischief. If they’re Iranian proxy, as the Israeli court declared, then Israel have to retaliate against Iran.

Israeli intelligence: It’s not that bad with Iran

admin — Tue, 26 Feb 2008 21:46:28 +0000

IDF Military Intelligence chief Yadlin told the Knesset that Iran will have nuclear weapons by 2010. The previous estimate was 2009.
Even Meretz MK called Iran “the biggest existential threat to Israel.” He is wrong: we can deal with Iran, but our biggest threat is Jewish leftists like those from Meretz.

Musharaff loses elections

admin — Tue, 19 Feb 2008 18:06:23 +0000

Pakistani opposition scored landslide win against the supporters of the key US ally General Musharaff. The opposition will necessarily ally itself with Islamic fundamentalists in the parliament to gain 2/3 of the votes to oust Musharaff.
Pakistan, a fervently Islamic country whose population strongly supports Al Qaeda, has about 53 nuclear bombs.

Global terror warning for Jews

admin — Thu, 14 Feb 2008 17:46:21 +0000

Israeli government warned all Jews abroad to refrain from assembling in large groups, following Nasrallah’s vow of revenge.
Hezbollah massively retaliated against Jews for the 1992 assassination of its previous leader, but otherwise kept its promise of fighting Israel only but not the soft targets: Jews abroad.
Mughniyeh’s assassination is great for Olmert, as he struggles to keep up his fledging government, and also for Barak, as an early start for his election campaign.
It is also possible that Mughniyeh was killed by the Lebanese who took revenge against Hezbollah for killing Rafik Hariri exactly three years ago.

Mossad reports on Iran

admin — Tue, 05 Feb 2008 16:44:09 +0000

Iran will have nuclear weapons in three year max, and assists the Gazans with training and weapons. If the report is true, how comes Iran still didn’t assist the Gazans to develop reliable rockets with 15-mile range? Given the state of Iranian missile industry, such rockets are a no-brainer. Something doesn’t hold in the Mossad estimate on Iran.

Hamas prevents Egypt from closing Gaza border

admin — Mon, 04 Feb 2008 19:21:38 +0000

Hamas encouraged Gazans to confront the Egyptians who work to seal Gaza off. Gazans threw stones at the Egyptians, while Egyptians fired at their Gazan brothers. Gazans also used firearms.
