I've been seeing a few Arabic articles about how Israelis are supposedly hysteric with fear, bringing examples of some false reports of terror attacks and how people reacted.

One fairly funny Israeli cartoon was used as evidence of Israeli fears by a Jordanian site, complete with what is now a meme of Israelis using umbrellas and nun-chucks as makeshift defensive weapons.
"I'm just peeling an apple!"

The underlying theme is that Israelis are acting like frightened children while Palestinian children are terrorizing them.It is another manifestation of the honor/shame and  macho dynamic, where being frightened is considered feminine and shameful. This is a recurring theme, with some Arabs posting videos of IDF soldiers reacting with what appears to be fear when something unexpected occurs.

Elder of Ziyon - حـكـيـم صـهـيـون



This blog may be a labor of love for me, but it takes a lot of effort, time and money. For 20 years and 40,000 articles I have been providing accurate, original news that would have remained unnoticed. I've written hundreds of scoops and sometimes my reporting ends up making a real difference. I appreciate any donations you can give to keep this blog going.
