Arab media painting "land bridge" idea between the Gulf and Haifa in antisemitic terms

Last week, YNet reported:

Jerusalem and Washington are advancing a secret plan to establish a continuous land bridge connecting the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Jordan and Israel, leading from the Persian Gulf straight to Israel's seaports. This is intended for the export of goods from the East to Europe through Israel, and later for tourist movement as well.

The land bridge will enable trucks to transport goods while significantly reducing transportation costs and time compared to the current situation.

According to a study conducted by the Foreign Ministry and the U.S. government, the time reduction is estimated to be from two to three days to several weeks, and saving up to 20% in shipping costs.

Currently, trucks leaving the United Arab Emirates reach the port of Haifa via the Allenby Bridge but face bureaucratic procedures, including driver changes, paperwork and lengthy waiting times. Another expensive option for shipping goods is via ships through the Suez Canal and then to European ports, which is also costly.

The idea is to enable the arrival of a single truck and driver from Dubai to the port of Haifa, for example, without changing drivers and trucks at border crossings between countries. The Israeli Foreign Ministry presented the plan to the U.S. special envoy Amos Hochstein.

According to senior Israeli officials, the Americans were enthusiastic about the plan and began promoting it with the involved countries: the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Jordan.

Sounds like a win-win-win. As long as proper security measures are in place, the idea of cutting shipping times from weeks to days between the Gulf and Europe will benefit everyone, and help solidify peace in the region.

So the usual haters are starting their campaign against it. And their major reason to oppose it is....classic antisemitism.

Rai al-Youm, a site run by known antisemite and terror supporter Abdel Bari Atwan, describes this plan as a nefarious plan for Jews to take over the economy of the Gulf. It headlines the story, "Israel's plan to control the wealth of the East." 

Their illustration:

The article concludes that "It goes without saying that if the aforementioned plan succeeds, the entity will enjoy Arab money for free."  The comments go on from there with various Jewish plots to take over the UAE and Bahrain. 

It will be most enlightening to follow this plan. The economics and US enthusiasm may convince the Saudis to go along with it even without an official agreement between them and Israel. Assuming that they are on board, there is no reasonable objection to this plan except pure hate of Jews.

But if history is a guide, the "progressives" who are the bulk of modern antisemites in the West will work overtime to come up with reasons to oppose this plan that will sound reasonable to those who share their latent antisemitism. We will see objections based on "human rights" even though there is no human rights issue here. They will craft convoluted essays opposing it that will first be published in Al Jazeera, then sharpened and focused to be acceptable to The Nation, and then crafted further to be in the New York Times op-ed page.

But as the first knee-jerk reaction in Rai al-Youm shows, the real reason is hate of Jews, and the other excuses that follow will have only one purpose: to hide the nakedly antisemitic intent of that opposition.

The Jews Who Live on Stolen Land (Judean Rose)

Note: Not written by Elder of Ziyon

What makes Progressive American Jews so dogmatic about “Palestinian” rights to statehood on Jewish land? Is it that they don’t know that Israel is indigenous Jewish territory—that the Arabs are latecomers? Or is there something else in play? Perhaps they feel just a wee bit guilty, as latecomers themselves, to be living on stolen Native American territory? In supporting the Arab cause, progressive American Jews may be making a subconscious statement that he who is last, has dibs, thereby giving themselves moral permission to steal.

They may reason, if they reason at all, that no one expects Americans to vacate America. Least of all the Native American people. Everyone accepts that it’s a fait accompli. Today the land belongs to America, whatever the motives or the rightness or wrongness of the land grab at the time that it happened. That’s just a fact. To the victorious Americans go the spoils.

No one does anything about this. There is simply no impetus for anyone to do anything about returning the stolen object that is America, to its rightful owners, the Native American people. If you were to speak about this to someone at a party, you’d see their disdain, the unspoken words they would be privately thinking: “That’s a bit silly, isn’t it? Unrealistic, immature, a nonstarter. No one expects us to just leave. No one. Even THEY, the Native American people, don’t expect us to go.”

I will be bold: Americans are thieves. They are living on land that doesn’t belong to them. Yet the Progressive Jews who are supposedly all about “tikkun olam” don’t do anything about this. They don’t think about it in the morning when they’re catching up on email; drinking soy lattes; and eating their almond croissants. And if you think about it, for Progressive American Jews to disagree with this unspoken yet accepted policy would be, well, un-American. And the thought that they may not be real Americans, or not American enough, just may be more upsetting to your average Progressive Jew than the thought of some faraway cousins being forced to abandon their home to violent squatters.

Because what is tikkun olam to them anyway? According to Nave Dromi, director of the Middle East Forum in Israel, "[Tikkun Olam] seems to have overtaken all other precepts formulated in millennia of Jewish life and tradition, in certain quarters. Its modern use was popularized in the early to middle of the last century, primarily among liberal Jewish movements in the United States. It was adopted as a way of finding a way to ensure that Jews felt common cause with the many social action and justice causes that were springing up.

“It is an extreme universalist interpretation of Judaism,” says Dromi, “and, while worthy in itself, holds nothing uniquely Jewish. Many have argued that it is a way to mold a frame of Judaism into their already held belief system to provide religious legitimacy.”

Hence, stealing Jewish land and giving it to “Palestinians” is tikkun olam, repairing the world, even though it is the exact opposite of that. Giving asylum to all illegal immigrants is tikkun olam. And yet some pigs are more equal than others: American rights over Native American rights. Illegal immigrant rights over the rights of American citizens in border towns who are already in the country and are adversely affected by this flood of illegals. And of course, Arab rights over Jewish Israeli rights.

But that’s not exactly the point of this piece. The point is the betrayal of Progressive American Jews in putting pressure on Israel to cede Jewish land to a non-native people with origins in Saudi Arabia. Progressive American Jews claim to be Jews and Israel is Jewish land. They should be defending Jewish rights as “tikkun olam.” How sick is it that they demand an indigenous people—their own—vacate its bustling, modern state? Particularly considering they themselves identify as belonging to that people.

Perhaps, subconsciously, shilling for the Arabs makes non-native Progressive “American” Jews feel better about living on stolen Native American land, rather than on their own.
