Arab press: Israel exploding nukes, causing earthquakes

Firas Press published an article claiming that the recent series of earthquakes felt in northern Israel were really underground Israeli nuclear tests.

The author, Mahmoud Daoud, marshals an impressive array of facts: since the earthquakes are in the north of the country, far away from the Dimona nuclear plant, they must have really been nuclear weapons, because Israel would never test them in the south and risk an accident at Dimona. The logic is impeccable.

Once this irrefutable fact is established, it is up to crusaders - oops, activists - like Daoud to explain what Israel's plans are.

One possibility is that, after finishing its archaeological digs undermining the Temple Mount, Israel plans to destroy the Dome of the Rock and Al Aqsa Mosque with a small nuclear weapon.

Another likely scenario is that Israel is developing small nukes that would only destroy Arab villages or "refugee" camps, as a possible response to conventional weapons.

Indeed, the author goes on to say, the Zionist entity is already known to have used uranium bullets and bombs in Lebanon. And as part of the West, Israel already has previous experience in using nuclear weapons against civilians in Japan in World War II.

Daoud goes on to say that all of Israel's recent concessions, including the prisoner swap, the calm in Gaza, the negotiations with Syria and the talk about Shebaa Farms is part of the conspiracy, as a kind of misdirection to keep the world from seeing Israel's obvious nuclear testing.

As if further proof is needed, a large meteor seen over Israel earlier this month was really an Israeli rocket test.

In hindsight, it is all so obvious!

Nefarious Zionist rats terrorize J'lem PalArabs

We've seen Zionist pigs, trained by settlers to attack innocent Palestinian Arab gardens during prayer times.

We've seen Zionist wolves, raised by the same settlers who know only to attack PalArabs.

We've even seen Zionist lions, kept by settlers as pets, instilling terror in the hearts of the oppressed West Bank Arabs.

Now, thanks to Zionist technology and the implacable hatred that Jews naturally have towards everyone else, we can witness the latest scourge: Zionist rats.

From Palestine Today (autotranslated):

Rats have become a weapon used by new Israeli colonizers against citizens in the Old City of occupied Jerusalem, in order to displace and expel them from their homes.

Districts in the old part of town are suffering and facing recently this new type of Israeli actions that aim to harass Jerusalemites in order to force them to leave.

For two months, dozens of settlers have been going to the alleys and streets of the old town, carrying with them dozens of iron cages full of rats, and to release them in the town into open drainage channels.

The citizens of the old town say that the rats grow very large, adding that different types of poisons did not contribute to eradicating them, and pointed to the large municipal slowness in dealing with this issue which is causing a humanitarian catastrophe and environmental losses.

According to Hassan Khater, Secretary General of the Islamic-Christian Front for Defending Jerusalem and its Holy Sites, these rats pose a major threat to Jerusalemites who inhabit these neighborhoods, and that the situation is serious and very poor, emphasizing the failure of the occupation in the municipality of Jerusalem to address the issue.

He reported during a press conference held in the government media center in Ramallah yesterday that the purpose of this measure is to increase the suffering of Jerusalemites in the old town, transforming their lives through the tragedy of fact, with the aim of pushing them to leave their homes and leave the city.

Khater added that the Front had received many complaints and comments from citizens Jerusalemites living in the revival of the old town, according to sabotage these rats property large number of houses and shops, calling to shed further light on this disaster.

There is a link between the colonists active in the deployment of rats in alleys of the Old City meant for the deportation and displacement of populations, and between the occupation and the deployment of hundreds of pigs in the mountains and valleys of the West Bank aimed at sabotaging the property and crops.

Yes, right now, in secret underground Zionist labs, brainy Jewish scientists (funded by the Zionist lobby) are breeding these super rats who are impervious to poisons, and trained through a combination of Pavlovian methods and embedded microchips to only attack Arab sections of Jerusalem and to leave the Jewish Jerusalemites alone. But thanks to the efforts of people like Dr. Hassan Khater (who has advocated genocide against Jews on PA TV) these schemes can be exposed for all the world to see.

Saudi Vice, episode 17: Tat's all, folks

A Filipino worker in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia was very happy with his life. He was so happy that he even got a tattoo during one of his visits home that said "Lady Hunter ... KSA."

He came back to the Kingdom and went about his business. But a Saudi Electricity Company worker noticed his tattoo and was aghast.

He followed the man home to find out his address, and then conscientiously called our heroes, the Commission for the Promotion of Virtue and the Prevention of Vice, telling them that clearly this man was aiming to have an illegal illicit affair with innocent Muslim Saudi women.

Our heroes at the Muttawa didn't waste any time investigating these allegations. They searched the man's home, and found even more reasons to punish the Filipino - he had pictures of Filipino women workers in his home!

Will the horrors never cease?

The Muttawa had seen enough. The man was deported away from the Kingdom and its holy places, and Saudi Arabia is a little bit safer from such deviants who dare have tattoos and pictures of women.

Now we know that Hezbollah murders POWs

Almost absent from all the discussion about the prisoner swap is the fact that Hezbollah murdered two captured soldiers, probably way after they were captured.

As David Bedein writes:

Exactly two years ago, a few days after Goldwasser and Regev were captured, the Israel government cabinet secretary Attorney Yisrael Maimon, convened a press briefing following the Israel government cabinet meeting, which this reporter attended, in which Maimon reported to the media that the Goldwasser and Regev were captured alive.

Maimon held at least 12 more briefings over the next few months in which he declared that Goldwasser and Regev were captured alive.

Maimon told the media that he relied on Israeli intelligence data which confirmed that the two Israeli POW's were captured alive.

Rev. Jesse Jackson, acting as an independent envoy, along with the Red Cross and the UN, all confirmed that Israeli POW's Regev and Goldwasser were alive.

Now that it is clear that Goldwasser and Regev died at the hands of Hizbullah while they were held in captivity, the responsibility for the murder of Goldwasser and Regev rests with the Hizbullah organization and with their sponsors in Syria and Iran.

The government of Israel now has a responsibility to the people of Israel and to the soldiers of Israel to hold Hizbullah, Syria and Iran accountable for murder of the two POWs.

Where are the human rights organizations? Where is the outcry of anger at Hezbollah's flouting of the Geneva Conventions and other international laws? Who in the West is standing up and calling Hezbollah murderers?

UPDATE: As my commenters have noted, Israeli sources are now saying that Regev and Goldwasser were killed during the initial attack.

So, were Jesse Jackson and the others lying?

The Guardian's disgusting biography of a terrorist

The Guardian (UK)'s Hugh Macleod wrote a brief bio of Palestinian Arab terrorist Dalal Mughrabi, and disregards the truth for PalArab propaganda:

As an 18-year-old Palestinian girl from Lebanon, she led a daring and bloody attack against Israel that still haunts the public imagination on both sides of the border 30 years later.

In 1978, Mughrabi led a team of 13 Palestinian and Lebanese fighters who landed at Jaffa beach intent on attacking the ministry of defence in Tel Aviv. On the coastal highway, Mughrabi's team hijacked two buses full of Israeli soldiers. An intense 15-hour gun battle ensued with forces led by future Israeli prime minister, Ehud Barak. Mughrabi raised her national flag and declared the Palestinian state.One of the buses exploded, killing many inside. Israel says Mughrabi threw grenades into it; Palestinians maintain the bus was fired on from the air by Israeli helicopters. At least 37 Israelis (Palestinians claim 70) were killed, as well as 11 guerrillas. Mughrabi's body was dragged off the tarmac and shot several times by Barak in images captured by the media. (HM)

Mughrabi hijacked one bus of civilians, 13 children were murdered by her gang that day. Macleod's pretending that the Palestinian Arab lies about the attack having the same credibility as Israel's is simply obscene. It is not as if the facts are hard to come by; the Guardian just disregards them.

For the truth, read here.

UPDATE: Israeli media reports that her body was not returned to Hezbollah and that it was lost. Hezbollah claims that her body was returned. Either Hezbollah has a DNA lab or it is lying.

But it doesn't matter, because in the honor/shame society, appearances are all that matters, not facts.

Today's PalArab press roundup

A few articles of note, although I won't have time to elaborate too much on any of them.

An Iraqi Shiite leader has issued a fatwa allowing women to undergo surgery to repair their hymens. The article assumes that all such women are "adulterous" and although it does mention that this procedure may save their lives, the primary reason for allowing the surgery was to maintain family "honor."

The spread of AIDS has slowed down dramatically in Gaza, and medical sources say that the Israeli "blockade" is a major reason why.

Hamas denies yesterday's report that their headquarters is moving to Beirut, saying that nothing could affect the good relationship between Hamas and Syria.

All of Lebanon celebrates a multiple murderer

It isn't only Hezbollah celebrating the imminent return of the most sickening terrorist in recent memory, Samir Kuntar.

The entire government of Lebanon is joining in.

According to the Palestine Press news,

The Lebanese Prime Minister instructed the closure of all public administrations and public institutions and private institutions, municipalities, public and private educational Lebanon on Wednesday, 16/7/2008, in observance of the liberation of prisoners from the prisons of the Israeli enemy and the restoration of bodies of the martyrs to the soil of the homeland.

It is expected that permeated the celebrations all regions of Lebanon on this occasion.

Similarly, the Lebanon Daily Star said:

Lebanon is planning a welcome ceremony in Naqoura, and President Michel Sleiman, Speaker Nabih Berri and Prime Minister Fouad Siniora will later greet the prisoners at Beirut's airport.

It can perhaps be expected that traditional murderer-worshippers like Hezbollah or Hamas would celebrate the release of such a murderer. But this is the entire government of Lebanon, which despite Hezbollah's influence is still considered to be pro-Western by the West, celebrating; every major political leader falling over themselves for a photo-op with this damned pitiful excuse for a human being.

It isn't just the terror organizations that embrace Samir Kuntar. It is the entire Arab world. Because anyone who kills Jews in Israel is, by definition, a hero to the Arabs across all political leanings.

If anyone can find a single Arab editorial that considers Samir Kuntar to be anything less than a hero, in any language, please let me know. Because I have not yet found it.

UPDATE: Not all of Lebanon is celebrating.

Syria moving Islamic Jihad and Hamas offices to Beirut?

Firas Press quotes an "Israeli intelligence site" as saying that Syria is planning to move the headquarters of Hamas and Islamic Jihad to Beirut, where they will be hosted by Hezbollah:

The sources added that the men of Hezbollah are working with a construction company of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard that began renovating two buildings in the heart of Beirut's southern suburb and is building the new security headquarters of these movements as well as housing for the leaders of the movement of Palestinians and their families.

If this is true, it may mean that Tehran is really unhappy with the indirect talks between Israel and Syria, signaling a desire to ensure greater control over PalArab terror groups via Hezbollah.

To have Iran's Revolutionary Guard supervise the construction of the buildings means that they want to ensure that Israeli intelligence doesn't drop any devices in the buildings while they are being built.

Another tunnel death

This one is a little different - he got electrocuted while in the smuggling tunnel:

Medical sources announced that Abu Yousef Najjar Hospital, the city of Rafah, noon today, Tuesday, on the death of an electric shock impact inside the tunnel under the city of Rafah.

The sources added that "the citizen Majid Sobh Spring" 28 years "died as a result of electric shock inside the city of Rafah tunnel."

Out 2008 PalArab self-death count is now at 113.

More proof the PA is a terror organization

Ma'an reports:

A Palestinian military court in the West Bank city of Jenin on Tuesday sentenced two Palestinians to death by firing squad, after they were found guilty of collaborating with Israel.

Twenty-seven-year-old Wa’el Sa’id Sa’ed Sa’ed, from the village of Yatta in the Hebron governorate was present in court when the sentence was handed down. His co-defendent Mohammad Sa’ed Mahmoud Sa’ed from Hebron was sentenced in absentia.

Both men were found guilty of passing information about Palestinian resistance fighters in the West Bank to the Israeli authorities, as a result of which the Israeli army carried out a number of targeted assassinations and detentions.

The issued sentences are inalienable and are ratified by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas.

It's been about three years since a death penalty has been carried out in the PA, and most of them have been for "collaboration with the enemy" (the list is here.)

In other words, the internationally recognized government of the PA, who is supposedly Israel's peace partner, actively supports and defends known terrorists ("resistance fighters") , and rather than punishing the actual terrorists, it punishes those who try to stop them.

To put it bluntly, the PA is the enemy and there is no distinction between the Palestinian Authority and the terrorists whom it actively supports and defends.

PalArab terrorists say "Next Year in Jerusalem!"

The Palestine Press Agency quotes an Israeli news source (that I could not find) saying that, at a farewell party being thrown for uber-terrorist Samir Kuntar by his fellow terrorists, they all shouted "Next year in Jerusalem!," mockingly using the same expression Jews have used for centuries.

Is there any clearer indication that releasing prisoners encourages terrorism?

GoozNews!

It's been a long time since I last did a roundup of Iranian news (definition of GoozNews is here,) but today we were treated to a surplus of wonderfully stupid articles from the Iranian media.

First we have the story, published in YNet, that Iran's IRNA "news" agency is reporting that thousands of Israelis are fleeing Israel in fear of the Iranian missile exercises last week. This story went wholly unnoticed in Israel, so it must be Jewish jinn or other similar invisible people.

Meanwhile, Nefesh b'Nefesh reports that four planeloads of people have arrived in Israel in the past month from the UK and US to live.

Next up is that the FARS "news" agency reported that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has accused four nations of conspiring to kidnap him the last time he was in Iraq.

The nations? America, Afghanistan, Iraq - and Palestine! It seems that Iran's love of Palestinian Arabs only extends to Hamas.

Finally, we have FARS again "refuting" the doctored images from the Iranian missile launch, saying that Iran never published the doctored images. The "expert" who made this analysis is funny enough, spinning a wild conspiracy theory about how the West first tried to ignore the test and then made up the story about the Photoshopped image.

Jordanian justice

Yesterday I mentioned how a Jordanian man was sentenced to only six months in jail for "honor killing" his teenage daughter.

Today, a Jordanian court upheld the death penalty for a woman who murdered her husband for his own infidelities. She is slated to be hung.

Apparently, in Jordan, women have no honor.

Gazans will hold a mock trial to convict Gilad Shalit

Palestine Today reports that a Gazan "human rights" organization will today hold a mock trial charging Gilad Shalit with crimes.

The purpose is to compare him to the Palestinian Arab prisoners in Israeli jails.

The event will include a parade with a man pretending to be Shalit being transported to the "trial" where he is expected to be convicted and sentenced. The parade will start at the Red Crescent headquarters in Gaza City.

The "peace dividend" spawns a new Fatah terror group

Israel's "peace partners" of Fatah have added yet another terrorist group to its repertoire.

The group came out with a press release this morning claiming that they shot a "barrage of bullets" at Israelis at the Jamala checkpoint near Jenin before withdrawing safely.

And who did this group name itself after?

Dalal Mughrabi, the female terrorist hero of all Palestinian Arabs who was involved in the murder of 36 Israeli civilians in 1978, and whose body is slated to be returned to Palestinian Arabs as part of the "swap" deal with Hezbollah. We can see the peaceful reverberations of this deal already, even though such incidents are so common that they aren't even mentioned in the Israeli press unless someone gets injured.

Is there any doubt that the members of this group also draw salaries as member of the PA "police"?
