Auschwitz Survivor on Independence

β€” From The Electronic Intifada, 6 December 2018

Esther Bejarano was part of a group that traveled by boat from Marseille to Palestine. β€œWe wanted to develop the country together with the Palestinians,” she recalls. β€œIn general, the Palestinians helped us…We wanted to develop the land together. But it was different with David Ben-Gurion and Golda Meir,” she says, referring to Israel’s founding Zionist leaders. β€œThey turned Zionism upside down and then the Zionists said β€˜we are the ones who own the land.’ That was not our idea.”

She is appalled that when young Palestinians protest near the boundary fence – as they have been doing regularly as part of theΒ Great March of ReturnΒ rallies since last March, β€œThey are simply shot” by Israeli snipers.

β€œBut in my opinion, Palestinians have a right to oppose what the Israelis do to them. They have a right to do that,” she asserts. β€œOr should they just be killed by the Israelis?”

β€œThey say β€˜Hamas sent its rockets to Israel and they are responsible for the war,’” Bejarano states, recalling Israel’s excuses. β€œBut who started it? Not the Palestinians. It’s the Israelis who sent all the Palestinians out of the country.”

Nota bene: Palestinians played absolutely NO part in The Holocaust. NONE.

Hamas vs. Likud

Roughly 12 million persons live in Palestine/Israel β€” half are Israeli, half are Palestinian. They both live within a single de facto state, but only one is a de jure state. That was true in 1948, it is true in 2018.

Resistance is the inalienable right of the occupied.

“When the British ruled Palestine, the underground Jewish army prided itself on hiding arms factories in grammar schools and synagogues. And as we know, in any besieged ghetto there will be ghetto fighters, and they will be treated as heroes by those on the inside, and terrorists by those on the outside. But if there are certainly men of violence among the masses of protestors, let us not forget that alongside the many Israeli soldiers who surely suffer some pangs of conscience, there are some, as we have seen on videotape, who high-five one another for using fancy sniper rifles to put big holes in human bodies hundreds of yards away.”Β 

β€” Israel’s Massacre of Palestinian Civilians Should Spark Horrorβ€”and Action

Gaza is a prison with walls above its perimeter and barriers below those walls. Details available at Israel and Stuff.

Israel officially admits that itΒ officially does not admit ownership ofΒ nuclear weapons. Iran is direct and truthful, it has no nuclear weapons.Β Β 

All secret information eventually surfaces. Recently among them: a plan to set off an atomic bomb on Sinai in the event that the six-day war took more than six days. Just to send a message to the neighbors, of course.

Hamas represents Gaza. If you want to negotiate with Gaza you have to negotiate with Hamas, the elected party of Gaza. Abbas is not even a puppet. The Palestine Authority has no authority. I understand that Israel possesses a tidy panoply of “defensive” military resources.

Danny Danon, Israeli Ambassador to the United Nations, never hesitates to demonize Hamas. Danny doth protest too much, methinks.
