Time The World Understood
Arab Collective Punishment
February 18, 2005
The Palestinian Terrorist Authority (PTA) has squealed often enough about Israel imposing so called collective punishment on the Arabs living in their areas. Disciplined in effective propaganda methods, they never mention the context responsible for their inconvenience.
Islamic Motivated Racist Apartheid
Israel never objected to Arabs coming into Israel from Gaza or the West Bank provided their purpose was ordinary and peaceful. No need to remind you that the reverse was not the case. Peaceful Israelis entering Arab areas gambled with their lives ”“ and lost. Most were brutally killed by the regular Arab population, not necessarily by their hooded monsters. Consequently virtually no Jews cross into their areas any longer. This is just one example of Arab collective punishment inflicted on Jews.
Israel has clearly failed to convince world opinion fact that we have a national imperative to prevent suicide terrorists from entering into Israel to explode all the Jews they can in a single bombing. The bodies of men, women and children, babies and grandmothers are spattered into eternity. However, the world is mistaken to think we will passively accept this kind of collective punishment from the Palestinians.
Anti-Terrorist Barrier Not Collective Punishment
The Palestinian Terrorist Authority complains that Israel`s anti-terrorist barrier falls into the category of collective punishment, because it hampers freedom of movement. They will not admit the truth – that the barrier was erected to prevent their terrorists from crossing over . . . here, there and everywhere.
The barrier forces them to crossing points where they can be searched for terrorist weapons. Make no mistake, the Palestinians understand very well that inconveniences at crossing points are the result of the deadly terrorism of their brothers and sisters. Nevertheless all follow the Palestinian Terrorist Authority`s line, bleating to high heaven about the “collective punishment” of delays and inconvenience. To which the lop-sided human rights organizations chorus a dutiful amen.
Forgive us for living, but we don`t intend to make it easier for terrorists to kill us. Israel will not give up its right to search for terrorists hiding weapons and bombs. Israel has every right to prevent these monsters (martyrs in the Arab lexicon) killing Jews.
Collective Punishment By Palestinian Terrorist Authority
Why are the nations more sympathetic to the inconveniences Arabs “suffer” at crossing points – than with the death and destruction Israelis have suffered from car bombs, explosive belts, sniping and drive-by shooting? What about the collective punishment which the Palestinians have rained on the heads of the peaceful Jews who lawfully made their homes in the Gaza Strip three generations ago?
Whats wrong with 8,000 Jews staying on in a Jewish enclave in the state of Palestine if it comes into being? Here in Israel we host 1,300,000 Arabs in the Jewish state as equal citizens. But the Palestinians cant abide a tiny minority of 8,000 Jews? It`s not the quantity they cannot endure; they will not tolerate any!
Shame On Nations Supporting Collective Punishment Of Jews
By insisting on this separation, the Palestinian Terrorist Authority is completely identified as out and out apartheid racists. They don`t give a hoot about the morality of collective punishment. Not being genuine democrats they have no hesitation about collective punishment of Jews. Shame on the European nations for supporting Palestinian collective punishment against Jews. And why do President Bush and Condoleezza Rice actively support it too?
How The Sand Dunes Bloomed
It was Prime Minister Sharon`s final understanding that a Jewish presence will never be accepted by the Palestinians, which forced him to change his policy and announce his unilateral intention to remove Jews from Gaza. These are Jews who had literally made the sand dunes bloom with their acreage of hot house plantations producing beautiful flowers, the tastiest cherry tomatoes, fruits and other vegetables. And which also provided work for Palestinians.
After 3 generations of fruitful life on land for which they owned full property rights, the 8,000 Jews from Gush Katif must now suffer the collective punishment of being physically removed – instigated by Palestinian inflexibility to abide a Jewish enclave.
Had they been Israeli Beduin of course they could have stayed. But Jews must be uprooted and resettled because Islamic Palestine must be Judenrein. As free of Jews as the Arab states of Saudi Arabia, Egypt, Libya, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran and most Islamic countries. Racist apartheid states all.
Brutal Example of Arab Collective Punishment
There are, according to unsubstantiated Palestinian sources some 4 million Palestinian refugees in various Arab countries. They have been deliberately kept in the squalor of refugee camps where their minimum needs have been supplied by UNWRA for nearly 60 years. How about that for massive collective punishment?
These Arabs fled voluntarily in 1948 at the urging of Egypt, Lebanon, Syria, Trans-Jordan and Iraq to get out and allow their armies to conquer and get rid of the 650,000 Jews in a quick campaign.
After ignominiously losing that war, the Arab League decided that the refugees should not return to the West Bank or Gaza, but should remain where they were until the (single) state of Palestine came into being. The Palestine Liberation Organization, founded in 1964, endorsed this decision.
Only those who fled to Trans-Jordan were subsequently accepted as citizens. The rest have languished in a forced state of hopelessness and poverty for 3 generations, compelled by the Arab nations and the Palestinian Terrorist Authority to depend on the world`s charity.
Not for these hapless people the unalienable rights of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness! Aided and abetted by UNWRA, a United Nations organization, to restrict them to their ghettos, and to fund them for generation after generation, with no end in sight.
Contrast that endless cruelty with the so called collective punishment of an extra hour or two at a crossing point for which Israel is denounced. Boggling, mindless morality!
