King Abdullah's speech to the UN is a study in hypocrisy and lies

Yesterday, Jordan's King Abdullah addressed the UN General Assembly with polished English and breathtaking hypocrisy.

Harking back to the long-debunked "linkage" theory, Abdullah claimed, "The Palestinian-Israeli conflict [is] the central issue in the Middle East."

This is right after he spoke about Syria, and the 1.3 million Syrian refugees that Jordan hosts!

As has been the case for decades, Arab leaders cannot resist using the Palestinian issue as a means to distract their people from their own shortcomings. Whipping up hatred against Jews means less hatred towards their own leaders.

Five million Palestinians live under occupation—no civil rights; no freedom of mobility; no say in their lives.

About 2.3 million people cross between the West Bank and Jordan through the Allenby crossing every year - most of them Palestinians. Does that sound like they have no freedom of mobility?

Some 90% of Palestinians live under Palestinian civil governance and laws. If they have no civil rights or say in their lives, how exactly is that Israel's fault?

Moreover, hundreds of thousands of Palestinians in Jordan who moved there from Gaza in 1967 have no civil rights or path to citizenship - so who exactly is curtailing the rights of those Palestinians?

And delaying justice and peace has brought endless cycles of violence—2023 has been the deadliest for the Palestinian people in the past 15 years.

No, it hasn't: it has been the deadliest in the West Bank. And nearly all of those killed have been armed terrorists or active fighters, whom Abdullah pretends are innocent civilians.

The past 18 months have been the deadliest in Israel in many years as well - where is the justice for Jews?

Jerusalem is a flash point for global concern. Under the Hashemite Custodianship of Islamic and Christian holy sites, Jordan remains committed to safeguarding the city’s identity.

First of all, Jordan has no custodianship over Christian holy sites. The original (verbal) agreement between the Supreme Muslim Council and the Hashemites was only concerning Al Aqsa. The 1994 Jordan-Israel peace agreement says "Israel respects the present special role of the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan in Muslim Holy shrines in Jerusalem." Abdullah is lying.

Secondly, when he says Jordan wants to safeguard Jerusalem's identity, by specifying "Islamic and Christian," he means a Jerusalem that has no Jewish history.

But preserving Jerusalem, as the city of faith and peace for Islam, Christianity, and Judaism, is a responsibility that we all share.

Except that under Jordanian rule, no Jews of any nationality were allowed to visit the Old City. Jordan regularly condemns Jews peacefully touring the Temple Mount. Abdullah supports a Jerusalem where Jews are, at best, tolerated but have no rights. If he cared about preserving Jerusalem for all religions, he would support Israeli sovereignty - since it is only under Jewish rule that Jerusalem has ever been truly open to all.

And we must not abandon Palestinian refugees to the forces of despair. Sustainable funding is urgently needed by UNRWA, the UN agency that provides vital relief, education, and health services to millions of Palestinian refugees. This is essential to protect families, keep communities stable, and prepare young people for productive lives.

Jordan itself gave a mere $4 million to UNRWA in 2022 - much less than the $7 million it gave in 2021. And so far it has only pledged $2 million in 2023. Abdullah is not exactly walking the walk.

But there is a lot of cynicism here: Jordan's economy benefits greatly from UNRWA. Even though UNRWA has no business giving aid to most of its "refugees" in Jordan who are full Jordanian citizens, it spends over $150 million a year in Jordan alone. Abdullah is appealing for UNRWA because that money is money he saves in providing basic services to nearly 2 million of his own citizens.

He pretends his appeal to UNRWA benefits Palestinians, but in reality UNRWA saves Jordan hundreds of millions of dollars, and it injects a great deal of cash into Jordan's economy on the world's dime.

The hypocrisy does not end there. In his speech, Abdullah speaks about "justice" and about how he is against "the black flags of terror, hate, and extremism." Yet even today, Jordan is zealously protecting terrorist Ahlam Tamimi - an unrepentant, proud monster responsible for the murder of 16 civilians including 7 children at a pizza shop in Jerusalem - from being extradited to the US to face justice.

Abdullah doesn't support justice. On the contrary, he supports a celebrity terrorist walking around freely in his kingdom.

Western media and politicians love King Abdullah. He is young, articulate, and smooth. He says all the right things and is considered a "moderate." So no one bothers to fact-check his speeches and analyze his actions. But in just this short address on the biggest stage on Earth, Abdullah has proven himself yet again to be a hypocrite and a liar.

Abu Ali Express has a great analysis of what has been happening in Gaza, translated by the (also great) Imshin.

If you are wondering why Hamas is sending youth to the Gaza fence now, and why Israel is closing the Erez crossing, this explains it.

Gaza Strip: The border conflict and the Qatari dollar - analysis of the situation

This afternoon, a significant piece of news was published in the Palestinian media that did not receive much exposure on the Israeli side: the Ministry of Finance of Hamas in Gaza announced that only 55% of August salaries will be paid to Gaza public sector officials instead of the usual 60%. Also, the August salary will be paid to officials on 20 September instead of at the customary beginning of the month.

"Palestine Now" news agency reported from its sources in the Hamas Ministry of Finance that the cut in the salaries of government officials in the Gaza Strip (hereafter "Hamas officials") is due to a decrease in the revenues of the treasury in Gaza, especially with regard to the revenues from the Egyptian side of Rafah crossing. According to these sources, the Finance Ministry of Hamas has a deficit of 116 million shekels.

On Tuesday, the Palestinian news agency in Ramallah, Sada News reported "shrill tones" between senior Hamas officials and Qatar, in connection with the Qatari ambassador's recent visit to the Gaza Strip, in which it was made clear that Qatar is not interested in continuing to transfer the Qatari contribution in its current form and that it intends to cut it and move to permanent solutions instead of Monthly payments.

Also, the Sada News news agency reported that about 3 months ago, Qatar suddenly stopped transferring the $7 million every month for Hamas officials (amounts that would have been transferred in the form of fuel through the Rafah crossing from the Egyptian side - this is probably what the "Palestine Now" report was alluding to).

The meeting between senior Hamas officials and the Qatari ambassador, according to the same agency, ended in an impasse and the ambassador left without any announcement being made on his or Hamas' side, as had been customary until now on his previous visits.

In other words: Hamas is now in the midst of negotiations for Qatari money. It is using the tools at its disposal to put pressure on Israel so that it will put pressure on Qatar (as it has in the past) to provide the money to Gaza.

Since the Qatari ambassador left the Strip, an escalation of the attacks on the fence in the Strip can be seen. Hamas wants dollars.

Last night Israel took the first punitive step following the escalation of events on the fence and closed the Erez crossing to the entry of Gazan laborers into Israel.

Hamas responded today with actions: the clashes on the fence continue.
Hamas, which absolutely directs the attacks on the fence and are in total control of the height of the flames, tells Israel that closing the crossing will not solve the situation. Nor will an IDF attack on observation towers in the eastern Gaza Strip 3 days ago in response to the escalation on the fence.

If you look at the situation logically, you can certainly understand the step Hamas is taking in its chess game. It is now negotiating for larger sums than its loss of income from a few days of closing Erez crossing to Gaza workers.

So what's next?

Israel has another "soft tool" at its disposal: preventing the export of goods from the Strip to Israel and the West Bank as well as preventing the entry of goods into the Strip.

Besides, it is a play for time.

Israel's two "soft tools": preventing laborers from entering Israel through the Erez crossing and the ability to close the movement of goods to and from the Gaza Strip, have more impact over time. They have a cumulative effect.

In the meantime, the situation on the border could escalate further and the killing of Gazans on the fence could lead to the launch of rockets and a military escalation on the part of Israel.

Both sides are in a game of chicken to see who blinks first. Hamas has succeeded in past rounds in proving that it has a better negotiating capacity with Israel because it is willing to go further, even at the expense of its own citizens. The Gazans are known for their particularly high adaptability to difficult situations...

Israel is more committed to the well-being of its citizens, and therefore, according to most, more susceptible to pressure in negotiations with Gaza. It can be assumed, based on past experience, that Israel will try to pressure Qatar to renew the Qatari contribution, in order to buy quiet in Gaza. Until next time...

Tzvi Joffre at the Jerusalem Post also makes some good points about why Hamas is choosing now to escalate.

09/19 Links Pt2: The Guardian attacks the Jews…. again; Netanyahu’s Twitter gambit; “Obscene Festival of Hate”: Open Letter to University of Pennsylvania President

From Ian:

Dave Rich: Jews Do Count - and that's the problem

To ask the question is to answer it. For some people, the opinions of Jews and the actions of Jewish organisations are the key to understanding something as globally significant as the future survival of X. It’s as if, when Jews lobby businesses, social media companies or politicians, it is different from when others do: more threatening, more insidious, less legitimate, even if others are doing exactly the same. These motifs attach themselves to Jewish activism because they connect with some very old and familiar stereotypes about the supposed influence of Jewish power and wealth in shaping our world; especially if a story can be told that implies behind-the-scenes manipulation and underhand influence. These are things that people instinctively ‘know’ about how Jews operate, whether consciously or not, so when a bunch of seemingly-friendly accounts on X pander to Musk’s bruised ego by suggesting he blame the ADL for his problems, it just fits.

This doesn’t mean that Musk is an antisemite, and he insists that nothing could be further from the truth. It just means that, like so many people, he has absorbed some of the assumptions that circulate in society about Jews, and when confronted with a Jewish organisation doing something he doesn’t like, something that affects him personally, it is easy to interpret this through the framing that antisemitism has provided for centuries. In fact, sometimes it’s easier to fall into that way of thinking than it is to avoid it.

The final example (so far) this month of a world figure saying strange things about Jews is Mahmoud Abbas, President of the Palestinian Authority, who gave a rambling speech full of anti-Jewish claims, a virtual bingo card of antisemitic myths familiar to anyone who studies this stuff for a living. I’m going to dig deeper into exactly what he said in a future post (Hitler “fought the Jews because they were dealing with usury and money” was the gist of it), but I was struck by the horrified response of Martin Indyk, the veteran U.S. diplomat and former U.S. Ambassador to Israel:

I feel genuine sympathy for Indyk who seemed stung by a sense of personal betrayal, but I’m also flabbergasted by his naiveté. If antisemitism were ‘just’ a visceral prejudice, then he’d have a point. It would indeed be strange for someone who can build a lifelong friendship with a real-life Jew to simultaneously believe such heinous thoughts about “the Jews”. But that gets antisemitism entirely wrong, because antisemitism is not - or not only - about hating actual living, breathing, Jewish people. It’s a set of abstract ideas and beliefs about Jews that is not anchored in reality. Fundamentally, it’s the idea that Jews are always up to something and can never be trusted. And at its most developed, antisemitism is a way of understanding and interpreting world events that places Jews at the centre of everything. It’s not about actual Jewish people and how they behave.

So of course Abbas can be personal friends with Indyk, while also believing a whole raft of antisemitic things about “the Jews”. Just as Musk can be assured he does not hate Jews, while being seduced by the allure of an antisemitic explanation for his problems. And Putin can claim to be ridding the Ukraine of Nazism, while insisting that an “ethnic Jew” is a front for an “anti-human essence” at the heart of Ukraine.

Three leaders of different nationalities, religions and regions of the world, all sharing the same strange notion that - to paraphrase David Baddiel, but not to contradict him at all - Jews Do Count, and usually more than we’d like.

This is what the Everyday Hate substack will be about. It’s about the strange ideas about Jews that have been woven into the cultural fabric and mental architecture of our world over centuries, and that pop up in the strangest of places today. It’s about why antisemitism keeps happening, even though everyone knows it shouldn’t. And, because I’m an optimist at heart, it will have some ideas about what we should be doing about it.

David Collier: The Guardian attacks the Jews…. again

The latest article
Haroon Siddique has once again given legitimacy to a bunch of nasties. He neglects to do any investigating or proper journalism. He *chooses* to give non-critical, undeserved legitimacy to a toxic report. How could ANY JOURNALIST write this piece, without apparently doing even the most basic background research?

This is a report about anti-Jewish racism on university grounds. The most basic questions:
- What is the history of the authors when it comes to antisemitism?
- Are these groups qualified to be held up as experts on the subject?

As Haroon Siddique failed to do the basic job of a journalist and check these organisations (or the report) out before promoting them – I have done the work for him.

BRISMES
On their website the British Society for Middle Eastern Studies (BRISMES) claims the aim is ‘to promote interest and study of the Middle Eastern cultural region’ – but much of their firepower appears to be pointed directly towards Israel. They even set up a separate company ‘BRISMES Campaigns’ to focus exclusively on boycotting Israel. This is a group of activist academics who hate Israel.

Until recently BRISMES was run by Nicola Pratt (no stranger to readers of this website) and based at the University of Warwick. These days it is headed by Neve Gordon and uses one of those ‘fake’ paid-for office addresses in Central London. There is only one resolution posted on the main website – a call for the academic boycott of Israel.

There are 14 people in the BRISMES Committee on Academic Freedom. SEVEN of these ‘academic freedom fighters’ actually signed a letter to Pressure “academic institutions and organizations to respect the Palestinian call for Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions of Israel.” It seems these BRISMES hypocrites are not about ‘academic freedom’ at all – and seek to silence voices when it suits them.

BRISMES and the Jane Jackman article
But what is important here is antisemitism. It was BRISMES that first gave the platform in 2016 to the antisemitic conspiracy paper by Jane Jackman at their annual conference. I exposed the depth of the problem in the paper – it was so bad that Glasgow University even apologised for placing the substandard conspiracy junk in a journal:
“This article does not meet those standards of scholarship. In particular, this article employs some discursive strategies, including a biased selection of sources as well as the misrepresentation of data, which promote what some would regard as an unfounded theory regarding the State of Israel and its activity in the United Kingdom.”

But even that didn’t stop BRISMES. Even though the paper is absolute antisemitic conspiracy junk (and I openly challenge ANY of the BRISMES academics to a public debate on the substance of that paper) – they chose to ATTACK Glasgow University, trying – but failing – to get the university to remove the criticism.

Defending the indefensible
It wasn’t just the blatant antisemitism of Jane Jackman that BRISMES tried to defend. BRISMES defended the disgraced academic David Miller too. Neve Gordon, the head of BRISMES, is a supporter of a world without a Jewish state (one state solution), he writes for the Qatari mouthpiece Al Jazeera, and pushes the Apartheid smear. He has worked closely with the Yevsektsiya group ‘JVL’, promoted Jackie Walker’s film ‘Witchhunt’, and defended Chris Williamson. Shahd Abusalama too. Many of the other figures involved with BRISMES are long-time anti-Israel campaigners such as Nicola Pratt and John Chalcraft,

No experts on antisemitism to be seen – just a bunch of anti-Israel propagandists.

Oslo Accord: Origins, goals, flaws of the Israel-Palestinian peace plan

Back to Arafat. Do you think, there were constructive ideas that Arafat was willing to pursue?
There was Arafat “the good, the bad, and the ugly.” Arafat “the good” suggested to move from the “Logic of War” to the “Logic of Peace”; we tested with him the possibility of getting Palestinian refugees from Lebanon to the United States and Canada. He supported the idea on two conditions: They would have to take more than 100,000 (of a total of 180,000) and it should be with as little as possible public knowledge. He wanted to become president even of a mini-state of Palestine. This opened up important options for Israel. Arafat “the bad” caused damage to his own people by undermining the effort at state-building; and Arafat “the ugly” was the terrorist.

When it all fell apart did you think you could put the genie back in?
No, I didn’t think it would be possible to put the genie back into the bottle. In 2000-2001 three or four major things happened. The security cooperation broke down; and so did the shared narrative of peacemaking. We, and most Israelis were, and are, convinced that the Palestinians started war against a peace government. They, the Palestinians were and are convinced Israel had cheated them with the settlements.

According to Beilin, did Israel cheat them on settlements?
Yes, the spirit of Oslo was to limit settlement expansion. We had 90,000 settlers in 1991 – and in 2000 we had 200,000. For us, we had a peace government.

What else made you think of the need to rethink the Oslo Process?
The 9/11 attack on the United States changed everything. It changed the strategic balance between Israel and the United States. From 1956 onwards and particularly from 1967 onwards, the rule of engagement was that Israel would receive arms from the US; diminish Russian influence in the area; and permit the United States to become the most important power in the Middle East throughout all the 1970s and 1980s. Now, after 9/11, the US has boots on the ground [in the Middle East].

Do you think it’s possible to get back on track for two states?
Today, the essential task is to maintain the prevailing “two nations reality.” Oslo is not totally dead, but the Abraham Accords are alive. The United States, Saudi Arabia, and Israel are starting to negotiate necessary understandings on how to promote regional cooperation and get back to peace negotiations.

Can this work?
It is an important path forward with many spoilers on the way. The basic idea is to allow Israel to strengthen its regional role as a constructive power contributing to stability, security, the struggle against poverty, unemployment; and water and food security and more.

Hence, what has to be done?
I believe the Israeli Government has to end what they call “the judicial reform”; intensify the political dialogue with Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Jordan, and Egypt and address the Palestinian issue; develop, with Saudi Arabia, a plan for building regional cooperation between the Indian Ocean, the Red Sea, and the Eastern Mediterranean which will serve not only Saudi interests, but will allow Egypt to develop Sinai, strengthen the Palestinian economy while building full cooperation with Israel along the Eastern Mediterranean coast between Alexandria and Ashdod; build an independent Palestinian infrastructure for water and energy, and allow the Arab states and the Palestinian diaspora to invest in trade promotion, agriculture, industry, and tourism, etc.

Do you think this is realistic?
Not with the present Israeli government. Unless Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu puts an end to the so-called “judicial reform,” and reaches an understanding, committing to a detailed plan, which will include turning at first Area B into Area A, and also encouraging Palestinian economic development in Area C, without moving settlements, but ending settlement expansion, I would recommend forming an alternative government under Netanyahu’s leadership with the parties of Gen. Benny Gantz and Yair Lapid, allowing Netanyahu to end his career like Churchill, by exercising magnanimity in victory. Otherwise, he will end up like Arafat, causing disaster to his own people. And we will need years to rebuild what is being destroyed.

During the weeks before Yom Kippur, Jews throughout the world add special supplications to prayers called Selichot. The theme of Selichot is repentance and praying for forgiveness. But even within that theme, you cannot separate Judaism from the longing for Zion that comes in all prayers.

Here are some of the selections from today's Selichot (Nusach Ashkenaz):

The Lord is great and highly extolled in the city of our God, the mountain of His Sanctuary. Beautiful in its panoramic vista, the joy of all the earth is Mount Zion, on the northern edge [of Jerusalem] the city of the great King. Do good as You see fit, to Zion, may You rebuild the walls of Jerusalem. Turn away Your anger and Your rage from Your city, Jerusalem, Your holy mountain. To recount in Zion, the Name, Lord, and His praise in Jerusalem. And may the Lord be pleased with the offerings of Judah and Jerusalem as in the days of old and in earlier years. The builder of Jerusalem is the Lord, the banished ones of Israel, He will gather. For the Lord will not cast off His people, and His inheritance, He will not abandon.

Then comes an entire piyyut (poem) with 23 stanzas, one for each letter of the Hebrew alphabet, all discussing the Jewish longing for Jerusalem and its rebuilding.

[Inhabitants] of Jerusalem, praise the Lord. O God, exalted with myriads of [angelic] hosts, seeking its welfare from the beginning to the end [of the year] providing it with benevolent rain. Your beautiful daughters [without sin] are like the corner of a king’s palace which are adorned with decorations. Open your mouths and sing together ruins of Jerusalem [when you are rebuilt].

One stanza even refers to the Stone that is the rock of the Dome of the Rock.

Let Jerusalem be called the throne of God in the coming times. The precious stone (the Temple’s foundation) will be recognized by throngs for its grace when all Israel comes to be seen when they beseech the Lord of Hosts [for His kindness] in Jerusalem.

I would bet that this poem alone mentions Jerusalem more times than all of published Arabic poetry between the 10th and 19th centuries combined.

And then in every day of Selichot we say:

Remember Your congregation which You have acquired of old, You have redeemed the tribe of Your inheritance, this mountain of Zion where You have dwelled. Remember, oh Lord, the affection of Jerusalem, the love of Zion, forget not until eternity. Remember, oh Lord,, to the sons of Edom, the day of Jerusalem, [it was they] who said, “Raze it, raze it to its very foundations.” You will arise and have compassion on Zion, for it is time to be gracious to her, for the appointed time has come.

One can understand that the Kinot - the poems said on Tisha B'Av - would be filled with references to Jerusalem and Zion. But Jewish prayers and poems, piyyutim and pesukim quoted, are intertwined with Jerusalem and Zion and the longing for the Land of Israel. While we do pray for personal things, Jewish prayers also ask for national redemption. Even the short prayer for rain is asking for rain in Israel, not the Diaspora.

Judaism without Israel is simply not Judaism. "Anti-Zionist Judaism" is an oxymoron.

Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed Al Nahyan, UAE Minister of Foreign Affairs, met with the leaders of Jewish groups at the UN today.

According to the Emirates WAM News Agency, "His Highness condemned the irresponsible statements made by Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas regarding the Jews and the Nazi Holocaust."

The minister also said that the UAE rejects hate speech and extremism, contempt of religions, racism, and racist discrimination in all its forms.

As far as I can tell, this is the first Arab government official to publicly condemn Abbas' antisemitic statements.

This is not a small thing. He will take some heat for saying this, and he could have avoided the topic altogether.

He deserves thanks for destroying the Arab consensus of either supporting Abbas or staying quiet.

From Ian:

MEMRI: He Said It All Already In 2018 And More: Jews Poison Wells – Mahmoud Abbas's Antisemitism And Holocaust Denial In Perspective

The statements made by PA President Mahmoud Abbas at the 11th session of Fatah's Revolutionary Council, on August 24, 2023 (see MEMRI TV clip),[1] which drew international criticism from the media and politically, were not new.[2] They were very similar to statements he made in April 2018 (see MEMRI TV clip below). These statements are in fact part of a comprehensive antisemitic ideology Abbas has espoused and elaborated on over the years. This ideology includes blaming the persecution of Europe's Jews, from the Middle Ages to the Holocaust, on their behavior or "social role" in Europe, while repeating classic antisemitic tropes such as the Jews' avariciousness – yet at the same time questioning the scope of the Holocaust and the authenticity of the gas chambers. Another central theme in this ideology is accusing the Zionist movement of collaborating with the Nazis and of resembling the Nazis in its ideas and methods. Abbas' accusations against the Zionist movement and Israel likewise incorporate antisemitic themes such as allegations about poisoning wells (see MEMRI TV clip below).

Abbas' ideas have been expressed in numerous publications and speeches over the years, many of which have been discussed and documented by MEMRI.

The following is a review:
Abbas In 2018 Speech: The Persecution Of The Jews In Europe Throughout History Was Due To "Their Function In Society, Which Had To Do With Usury, Banks, And So On"
In an April 30, 2018 speech before the Palestinian National Council in Ramallah (see clip below), Abbas made remarks very similar to his recent comments, saying: "The Jews who moved to Eastern and Western Europe had been subjected to a massacre by one country or another every 10-15 years, since the 11th century and until the Holocaust in Germany… [But] the anti-Jewish [sentiment] was not because of their religion, but because of their function in society, which had to do with usury, banks, and so on."[3]

Abbas' In His Doctoral Dissertation: The Number Of Jews Killed By The Nazis Is Unclear, But, Whatever The Number, The Zionists Collaborated With The Nazis In This Crime; After The War They Perpetrated Similar Crimes Against The Palestinians
Some of Abbas' ideas were set out in his 1982 doctoral dissertation, submitted to the Oriental College in Moscow and titled "The Secret Connection between Nazism and Zionism – 1933-1945." In this dissertation, a copy of which has been obtained by MEMRI, Abbas sought to de-legitimize the Zionist movement by arguing that it collaborated with the Nazis in the annihilation of the Jewish people in order to prompt Jews to emigrate to Palestine. As evidence of this he cited a 1935 agreement between the Nazi authorities and representatives of the Zionist movement which facilitated the escape of part of German Jewry to Palestine in exchange for their property. Abbas stated further that, during the war itself, the Zionists continued to collaborate with the Nazis: “The activity of the Zionist organizations during the war did not ease, but rather exacerbated, the position of broad Jewish sectors in the European countries, many thousands [sic] of which became victims of the Hitlerite genocide.” Therefore, he argued, some of the Zionist leaders share the blame for the Nazis’ crimes against the Jews.

Abbas wrote in the dissertation that after the war, the Zionists used the issue of the Holocaust “to justify the genocidal policy towards the Arab people of Palestine, which is implemented by Israel’s Zionist government with the support of the U.S. and of the international Zionist centers. This policy actually repeats the wicked [crimes] committed by the Nazis towards the Jews during WW2, and its goal is to establish a sort of empire in the Middle East: Greater Israel.”

As evident from his reference to the “thousands” of Jews killed by the Nazis, Abbas' dissertation also questions the scope of the Holocaust, stating, “There are no precise statistical or verified scientific data regarding the total number of the [Jewish Holocaust] victims,” he wrote. “According to data presented by the British [sic] researcher R. Hilberg,[4] whose research focuses on the Holocaust, the number of victims of the Hitlerite genocide of the Jews during the WW2 reached 896,000. According to other estimates, prevalent mainly in Israeli and Western literature, this number is significantly larger and reaches six million people.”[5] It should be noted the figure 896,000, which Abbas' attributes to Raul Hillberg, was never proposed by this scholar. Abbas cited p. 670 of Hilberg's The Destruction of the European Jews as the source of this data. However, an examination of this source shows that no such figure is mentioned.

UAE condemns Mahmoud Abbas' claim that Hitler killed Jews because of 'social role'

The UAE foreign minister has condemned Mahmoud Abbas' claims that Hitler fought with the Jews 'because of their social role and not because of their religion'.

Sheikh Abdullah bin Zayed bin Sultan al-Nahyan said the remarks on Jews and the Holocaust by the Palestinian Authority (PA) leader that have drawn widespread accusations of antisemitism were “irresponsible”.

During a speech at his Fatah party’s Revolutionary Council last month, Abbas also claimed the Jews were one of the causes of Germany’s loss in World War I, a false claim which Hitler initially peddled.

The Palestinian leader also repeated the 'Khazar Myth' that he has peddled often over the years, stating that Ashkenazi Jews descend from Turkish Khazars who converted, rather than biblical Jews.

He also accused the United States and Great Britain of inventing the idea of Jewish statehood, according to a translation of the remarks by the Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI).

In a statement, the UAE foreign ministry said: “Sheikh Abdullah condemned the irresponsible statements made by the Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas regarding Jews and the Nazi Holocaust, emphasising the importance of tolerance and human brotherhood values in the UAE's approach to building peaceful and prosperous societies.

“He also underscored the UAE's rejection of hate speech, extremism in all its forms, religious intolerance, racism and racial discrimination.”

JCPA: Can Israel and the Palestinian Authority Continue to Cooperate?

Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has stated that Israel is preparing for the “day after Abu Mazen” and that Israel aims to maintain the PA.

Since it is evident to any objective observer that no single, unified Palestinian Authority, as envisaged by the Oslo Accords, actually exists today, after Abbas leaves the political scene, Israel, according to the Prime Minister, will strive to maintain the pretense of the existence of that body. It is unclear, however, whether Israel will strive to preserve the despotic rule of Fatah over Fatahland while simultaneously maintaining the internal Palestinian rift with Hamastan.

The advantage of maintaining the pretense is that, irrespective of the identity of the despotic leader chosen, the Fatahland leadership will continue to govern and provide for the needs of the Palestinian population, however poorly, thereby relieving Israel of that burden.

While the task of the new Fatahland leader would not be simple, it comes with a potentially multi-billion-dollar dowry, the perks of traveling the globe as a national leader, and the ability to enrich those close to him.

The disadvantage of maintaining the pretense is that to survive internally, the new Fatahland leader must prove his fighting credentials and that he is not just another Israeli stooge. Will that mean the new leadership of Fatahland will continue the pugnacious practices and policies of Abbas, incite terror and the murder of Jews, squander billions to reward terrorists, attack Israel in international forums, and continue undermining Israel’s legitimacy?

When 87-year-old Mahmoud Abbas leaves the political scene, the “Palestinian Authority” will enter a new phase. Abbas’ legacy to the Palestinians is the destruction of the PA as one unified entity. Instead of fighting terror, Abbas embraced the internationally-designated terror organization Hamas and insisted that the terrorists be allowed to participate in the PA elections. Abbas similarly squandered billions of shekels/dollars inciting terror and murder and incentivizing and rewarding terror and terrorists. Abbas also spearheaded the use of lawfare to attack and delegitimize Israel. The PA under Abbas was little more than a glorified terror organization.

Nonetheless, the Israeli security establishment, which has sunk deep into the Oslo paradigm, has managed to convince Israel’s government that maintaining the semblance and pretense of the existence of the “Palestinian Authority” – i.e., the presence of Fatahland – is in Israel’s best strategic interest.

Will Israel’s government continue its willful blindness to the wrongdoings of the Palestinians to maintain this pretense? Will Israel continue funding all the disastrous policies of the Fatahland leader and grant him all the privileges and perks of being the Palestinian leader, even if the Palestinians had no say in his selection?

Arabic media claim Kfar Saba is purely Arab. A Talmudic-era mosaic says otherwise.

The Palestinian Safa news site writes about Kfar Saba, which it claims is a purely Arab town that had been taken over by Jews who are fabricating a Jewish history there.

I always enjoy researching stories like this, because I learn things - and almost invariably, what I learn is that there is a far deeper Jewish connection to everywhere in Israel than an Arab one.

The most impressive evidence is at the Kfar Saba Museum, where a mosaic floor found in a Talmudic-era synagogue there show the name of the city in easily-readable Hebrew.

There is an irony in Kfar Saba: The Muslims built a shrine a few hundred years ago they say was the Tomb of Benjamin based on an earlier Jewish tradition. Some Jews converted it into a synagogue after the Arabs abandoned the village in 1948. But any tomb of Benjamin, the son of Jacob (Israel), would obviously have more meaning for Jews than for Muslims - yet they claim that this tomb is a Muslim site that the Jews are stealing!

And if it is really a Muslim holy site - why did Muslims burn the shrine in 2022?

The modern Kfar Saba was created when Jews legally purchased land from the Arabs of Kafr Saba nearby in the late 19th century. There were attacks against Jews from the town in 1936 as well as 1948 even though the Arab village signed a truce with the Jewish village in December. Benny Morris writes how the Arab Liberation Army extorted fleeing residents:

The fleeing Arabs left some of their own behind:

So the Jews were there before the Arabs, the Jews purchased the land from the Arabs, the Arabs broke a truce agreement with the Jews, and the Arabs fled the heavy fighting while the Jews stayed.

And now the Arabs claim the Jews stole it from them!

Egyptian, Jordanian, Moroccan and Saudi government ministries condemn Jews visiting their holiest site on Rosh Hashana

On Sunday, about 250 Jews visited the Temple Mount for Rosh Hashanah. There were no major incidents: one Jew blew a shofar and was quickly removed by police.

But since so much ink had been spilled in the Arab world about how "Al Aqsa is in danger" the Arabic media had to create the impression that the Jews who calmly and quietly visited - as they do every Sunday through Thursday - were disruptive and insulting.

Even Arab video shows they weren't:

Yet the lies spread throughout the Arab world. Countless articles claim that the shofar blower was supported by Israeli police, not detained. Al Jazeera has an entire article on the dangers of blowing a shofar there - a place where there are huge loudspeakers blaring much louder than any shofar five times a day, every day.

The Jordanian Council of Endowments, Islamic Affairs and Holy Sites in Jerusalem issued a statement condemning the Israeli police for allowing a Jew to enter with his shofar.

But these condemnations of Jews visiting their holiest site are not relegated to op-eds and fringe groups. They come from the governments of nations at peace with Israel, or seeking peace with Israel.

The Jordanian Foreign Ministry "condemned the extremists’ storming of the Blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque/the Holy Mosque of Jerusalem and their provocative practice under the protection of the Israeli police." They said that the Jews touring the area "represents a violation of the historical and legal status quo in the Blessed Al-Aqsa Mosque/the Holy Mosque and a violation of the sanctity of the holy places." It also emphasized that the entire area of the Temple Mount is purely for Muslims, not only insulting Jews but also the thousands of Christians who visit every year.

Morocco's Foreign Ministry was reported also to have condemned Jews visiting the site, saying, "These escalatory actions inflame feelings and undermine efforts to calm the situation in the occupied Palestinian territories."

Dr. Muhammad Mukhtar Gomaa, the Egyptian Minister of Endowments, said that "the repeated incursions into Al-Aqsa are a sinful assault on one of the holiest sanctities of all Muslims, a blatant provocation to the feelings of Muslims from all over the world, and a blatant violation of all international laws, and the rational people of the international community must work to curb this extremism."

The Saudi Ministry of Foreign Affairs also issued a statement, in English:

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs expresses the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia's condemnation and denunciation of the storming of the Al-Aqsa Mosque by a group of extremists under the protection of the Israeli occupation forces. The Ministry affirms that these practices are considered a blatant violation of all international norms and conventions, and a provocation to the feelings of Muslims around the world.

In reality, international law would prohibit the banning of Jews from the Temple Mount that these members of the United Nations are explicitly demanding.

In the history of Jerusalem, only Jewish rulers have allowed all people to visit their holy places. Gentiles were allowed to offer sacrifices in the Temples. There is a huge irony that the people who have been the most liberal and accepting of all have been the ones accused of intolerance - by people who proudly say that no one has any rights on the Temple Mount besides Muslims.

Open Hillel is dead. Its successor doesn't know why it exists.

Remember Open Hillel?

About ten years ago, a group of students at Harvard became incensed that their Jewish campus Hillel canceled an anti-Israel event when it was revealed that a BDS group was sponsoring it, violating Hillel's guidelines.

Of course they could hold their event anywhere, but they decided to start a movement called Open Hillel to get other Hillels to drop their affiliation with Hillel. Like so many "progressive" organizations past and future, they are more interested in creating a split within the Jewish community than in building their own. Open Hillel had a conference at Harvard in 2014 and based on the media attention, it looked like it could rupture Hillel International.

It failed.

In the end, only four campuses nationwide defected to "Open Hillel" - Guilford College, Swarthmore College, Vassar College, and Wesleyan University.

By 2020, none of them were still associated with Open Hillel - and two of them are now affiliated with Hillel International again.

In short, Open Hillel made a lot of noise but in the end could not attract students who are both interested in Judaism and anti-Zionism. There is a strong negative correlation between the two positions, which pretty much dooms any attempt to fuse them, no matter how many anti-Israel Haggadahs are printed.

So Open Hillel is in a deep coma, and has been for a while, just as the American Council for Judaism - a prominent and equally tiny anti-Zionist group in the 1940s-1960s - also sunk into irrelevance. Both organizations have a couple of people still doing paperwork to maintain their tax exempt status but they have faded away after a lot of publicity early on.

But Open Hillel has one last gambit to stay alive: "Judaism On Our Own Terms," or JOOOT.

They wrote an introductory piece in Mondoweiss on Friday: "Judaism On Our Own Terms is creating a space where young Jews do not have to choose between their Judaism and their sense of justice."

JOOOT is an offshoot, and seemingly successor, of Open Hillel. Since 2020, Open Hillel's Form 990 has included a position for Rakhel Silverman as a "Judaism on our own Terms organizer." getting paid $4600 in 2020 and $2492 in 2021. Silverman describes themself as a "a proud fat trans Disabled Jew."

But JOOOT really doesn't know what to do next. On their website they say they are in the midst of a "restructuring process" where they are asking anyone and everyone to please give them some ideas of what they should be doing. To restructure means they had a structure to begin with, which is not at all clear.

This mirrors the self-destruction of IfNotNow, but at least IfNotNow managed to grab some headlines before its inevitable collapse.

In the end, even children know that "Judaism On Our Own Terms" is an oxymoron. People don't look at religion or community to do whatever they want - they want to be part of a whole where everyone shares basic beliefs and standards. If anyone can do whatever they want and call it Judaism, then Judaism has no meaning. The anti-Zionists only have one belief - hating Israel - and that is not enough to keep a core group of enthusiastic members nor is it enough to attract more.

There will still be plenty of anti-Zionist Jews. But their interest in identifying as Jews is ephemeral. Which is why these groups are all doomed, but also why there will always be new ones who think they came up with the idea.

09/18 Links Pt2: Mahmoud Abbas's antisemitism should make him a global pariah; Academic freedom isn’t an excuse for antisemitism; Apple News, Where Antisemites Are Always Welcome

From Ian:

Mahmoud Abbas's antisemitism should make him a global pariah

Making Abbas an international pariah would send this message clearly and bolster these voices who condemn antisemitism.

It would deprive parts of the Palestinian national movement that soak their struggle in religious, racial, and historic hatred the oxygen to spread and legitimize their antisemitism.

It would thus make the conflict easier to solve, much like other national or political conflicts.

Finally, it would send the important message that hatred against Jews is equal to that of other communities and peoples.

If a politician denied the suffering of other peoples or claimed they were a result of their own actions, they would justifiably be ostracized. However, as some, like British comedian and TV personality David Baddiel, have pointed out recently, with a huge amount of justification, “Jews don’t count,” and antisemitism is treated differently from other forms of racism, creating double standards and discrimination against Jews.

For these, and a myriad of other reasons, it is time that Mahmoud Abbas become an international pariah.

No more justifications, No more excuses. No more distractions.

Abbas is a rabid antisemite, and his ongoing hatred of Jews should rule him out as a partner for peace, a global diplomat, or even a person worthy of a decision-making role.

PreOccupiedTerritory: A Guy Just Can’t Call The Jewish State A Genocidal Apartheid Fourth Reich Without Being Called Antisemitic by Zach Foster (satire)

Princeton, September 18 – Zionists and their defenders love to claim that “criticism similar to that leveled against any other country cannot be considered antisemitism” (IHRA definition), but when my colleagues and I in the pro-Palestine movement begin pointing out that Israel ethnically cleanses Palestinians by the millions, harvests their organs, controls the banks, the media, and Western governments, suddenly that doesn’t matter anymore, and the “antisemite!” card quickly enters play.

A guy just can’t call the Jewish State a genocidal apartheid Fourth Reich without being called antisemitic. Certainly not anymore.

It’s quite the coup by those narrative-shaping, Hasbara-pushing Zionazis. As soon as you suggest the movement for Jewish self-determination, alone among all other movements for ethnic self-determination, is a racist endeavor, those AIPAC stooges will mob you and smother you with accusations of Nazism. Listen, just because the Mufti of Jerusalem allied with Hitler, agreed to facilitate a Final Solution to the Jews if the Wehrmacht ever made it to the British Mandate of Palestine, and fomented anti-Jewish violence wherever he trod, doesn’t mean I can’t engage in a little bit of Holocaust inversion. Then when I do, I’m the bad guy all of a sudden. Not the people I’m accusing of a new Holocaust with no evidence.

I have a PhD from Princeton – that should mean I carry credibility. But noooo, look who controls the media and makes self-righteous noises when I offer my tendentious take on things. Every time I deny Arabs any moral agency, or suggest that history begins with the Muslim conquest of the Holy Land in the eighth century, the usual suspects come tweeting, calling me all sorts of names. Jews were protected under Muslim rule! Protected from whom or what, I’m not certain, because obviously Islamic rule is peaceful, tolerant, and would never promote anti-Jewish sentiment as a way to divide and rule potentially restive populace. From whom could Jews possibly need protection? Yet the Muslim rulers offered it. It’s those ungrateful Jews for whom that was insufficient.

Good news! The Palestinian Authority and UN agree that Israel doesn't occupy Palestinian controlled areas!

Eugene Kontorovich found this while researching the latest UNESCO fiasco:

At least in Jericho, and presumably Area A at the very least, the Palestinian Authority government admits that "occupation" ended in 1994!

I didn't see this document online but I found a similar formulation in a United Nations Development Programme document about tax policy in the territories, saying,

6.1 Taxes in the occupied Palestinian territory _ Israeli Occupation (1967-1994)
6.2. The Palestinian Era

Earlier today we solved the "siege of Gaza" and now we've solved "occupation." Not a bad day!

A video has spread through many Arabic websites today concerning an interview with the daughter of the 20th century's most famous Quran reciter, Mahmoud Khalil Al-Hussary of Egypt.

Yasmin al-Hussary was interviewed on the Al-Nas satellite channel on Sunday and she described her memories of her father.

The elder al-Hussary was known for his accurate renditions of the Quran.

During the interview Yasmin claimed that in his travels, her father came across Qurans written and distorted by Jews. He therefore fought these distortions by reciting it correctly.

Why would Jews bother rewriting the Quran and distort it? One does not need to ask such questions. Obviously, because they are Jews and they want to destroy Islam.

It is important to note that every year, printed Qurans are discovered that have mistakes in them, and they are destroyed and the incidents widely reported in Muslim media. I guess it was only a matter of time before the Jews were blamed for Quranic errors.

From Ian:

Jason D. Greenblatt: No Matter Our Religion, We All Want Peace

Over the past seven years, I have been privileged and humbled to have had a front-row seat to a dramatically changing Middle East. On a recent trip to Riyadh, a post of me and my daughter in a Riyadh mall on social media garnered more than 1.8 million views. Most of the comments were welcoming. The only real controversy was from commenters who chided the person who posted the photo for doing so without my permission.

I have been fortunate to have had countless powerful experiences with Arabs, Christians and Muslims throughout the Middle East. In all conversations, even when we disagree on Israel (a not uncommon occurrence), the conversations have been respectful and typically end with a polite goodbye, perhaps a handshake, and sometimes even a hug. I am deeply inspired by the changes that I see in the tone and tenor of the conversations. Reactions to my op-eds in the Arab press are often quite positive, pragmatic and hopeful, even if my views are contrary to the beliefs of many.

A very pro-Palestinian friend of mine in one of the Gulf countries wrote: "The thoughts you express are becoming more and more common in the region. I believe the major Gulf states and a lot of the Arab states have recognized that the Palestinian question will not be resolved given the current status quo and while the internal divisions within the Palestinians themselves are not resolved." I hear these sentiments more and more these days.

I firmly believe that, while most of the region would love to see an end to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, they also know that, for the time being and for so many reasons, that is not achievable. But more and more they are recognizing that we cannot get so caught up in making things perfect and, as a result, never get anything done. In more and more conversations, people tell me that Israel must be integrated into the region, all while not giving up hope that, one day, a solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict will present itself.

During Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, Jews all over the world will pray for many things. To my dear cousins in Arab lands, I hope you will join us in our prayers for peace. Let us walk down the path of Abraham together, as descendants of Abraham, and work together to build a beautiful, prosperous and peaceful future for the next generation.

'The Heist': How Israel, Mossad are combatting Iran's nuclear program

On the night of January 31, 2018, the spies, the analysts, the technicians, and the operations chiefs of the Mossad, the State of Israel’s fabled intelligence arm, were gathered inside the agency’s state-of-the-art situation room on the outskirts of Tel Aviv to oversee an operation that they all knew could turn out to be momentous for their country—or, if things went awry, disastrous.

Yossi Cohen, the dapper chief of the agency, dressed in his usual crisply ironed white shirt, sat at a desk, keeping his eye on the time, while the whole room was in a state of tense expectation, waiting for him to give the order for one of the Mossad’s most audacious operations to begin. On the surrounding walls, an array of plasma screens glimmered, as if waiting for the satellite video feed of the operation to appear on them, providing a real-time view of what was taking place on the ground hundreds of miles away. The Mossad's sleepless nights

Cohen and dozens of Mossad agents had been working for days, almost without sleep. The moment had arrived. At exactly 10:31 p.m., Cohen said, “Execute,” carefully enunciating each of the syllables of the command, which set in motion a Mossad team poised for action in Iran, specifically in the Shirobad industrial neighborhood on the southern outskirts of Iran’s capital, Tehran. Shirobad wasn’t the kind of place you would imagine as the scene of a spy drama with international consequences.

It was just a drab zone of corrugated-iron-roofed warehouses stretching as far as the eye could see. But on that night, two dozen selected Mossad operatives—most likely a mix of Israeli agents and Iranians opposed to the Islamic Republic’s theocratic regime—were propelled into a swift, well-rehearsed motion.

While Cohen watched the clock back in Israel, they broke into one of the warehouses, used high-temperature blow torches to penetrate a series of steel vaults, and began to remove files, physical and electronic, that contained the entire record of Iran’s strenuous effort to become a nuclear-armed power going back to its beginnings nearly thirty years before.

Cohen watched the clock because time was of the essence. The team in Iran had exactly six and a half hours to find the vast amount of material they needed, load it onto trucks, and make their escape, or they would be discovered, and the mission, with all its months of meticulous planning—data analysis, risky intelligence gathering by agents infiltrated into Iran, and more—would come to naught, and two dozen lives could be lost to the tender mercies of Iranian justice.

David Singer: Instead of protests outside the UN, let's unite Israelis with a ceremony

The introduction by Israel of a Welcome to Country ceremony – similar to that which has existed in Australia since 1973 – could be just the circuit-breaker needed to reunite a bitterly divided Israeli society - even the protesters and the 15 judges of Israel’s Supreme Court who sat on the issue of basic laws on the eve of Rosh Hashanah.

Such a ceremony would serve to bring the Jewish people together to publicly honor, recognise and acknowledge their forefathers as the traditional owners of the land on which the State of Israel has been established and to which Israel is entitled to lay claim in Judea and Samaria under articles 6 and 25 of the League of Nations Mandate for Palestine and article 80 of the United Nations Charter.

It would also unite Israelis in their fight against attempts by the UN and UNESCO to create political facts on the ground by erasing Jewish ownership of historic Jewish archaeological sites instead of those Kaplan Street protesters fighting Netanyahu.at the UN.

The UN and UNESCO's latest despicable effort is Jericho – containing Jewish heritage sites including the Hasmonean Winter Palaces, King Herod’s Third Palace, a Byzantine-era synagogue dating back to the 6th Century CE, ritual baths, and nearby burial caves used by priests of the Second Temple.

The Encyclopaedia Britannica faithfully records the history of the Jewish people’s arrival in Canaan as detailed in the Old Testament:
“Twelve Tribes of Israel, in the Bible, the Hebrew people who, after the death of Moses, took possession of the Promised Land of Canaan under the leadership of Joshua. Because the tribes were named after sons or grandsons of Jacob, whose name was changed to Israel after he wrestled an angel of the Lord, the Hebrew people became known as Israelites.

Today's Arab antisemitism part 1: A crazed history of how Jews control America

Al-Khanadeq, a Lebanese pro-Iranian Shiite news site, describes how Jews control the United States. It was written by Nasib Shams, who has had bylines in other popular Arabic media.

There has always been talk about the Jews in the United States , their power and influence in decision-making, and there has also been talk about the power of the Israeli lobby. But how did the Jews get to the United States? What is their history in this country?

The history of Jews in America begins with the beginning of Christopher Columbus, when more than 300,000 Jews were expelled from Spain on August 2, 1492, and Columbus sailed, carrying a number of Jews with him. His first letter explaining his discoveries was addressed to a Jew. Columbus's supporters were rewarded with a number of privileges. As for him, he became the victim of the conspiracy hatched by the ship's Jewish doctor.

Since that time, Jews began to look to America and began to immigrate there, and more and more to South America, especially Brazil . When the conflict occurred between the Dutch and the Brazilians, they were forced to immigrate again to the Dutch colony, which is today called “New York.”

The Jews controlled the cinema, sugar and tobacco industries, half of the canned meat industry, the shoe industry, etc., and trade in particular. Which made the American people dissatisfied with the global Jewish plan to transfer financial markets to the United States.

The Jews enjoy a strong and absolute influence in America, and they do not hide it. They claim that “the essence of American life is Jewish, not Christian,” and that “American history must be rewritten to recognize the glories of Judas and the virtue of the Jews.” Also, the problem is not a problem of the Jewish people, but rather a problem of Jewish thought and the use of the people as a tool to harness the idea. One of its primary goals is to destroy the true values of workers. The influence of the Jews on the thinking of the workers was very bad. The other area of the Jewish idea focused on the churches. They invaded hundreds of Christian churches. They controlled the church in its doctrines.

Jewish ideas have invaded the minds of university students, as Jews led all revolutionary or anarchist movements in the student field. They worked to secularize public schools, and to keep children in their early stages of education away from any word that might help the American child learn about the “Jewish element.” Through the secularization of schools, it became possible to “Judaize universities.”

The Jews are mostly men without religion, and they use the slogan "religious persecution" to arouse people's feelings, but the issue is a matter of race and nationality, not a religious issue. No president of the United States dares to include in his first presidential speech any excerpts from the New Testament for fear of being exposed to the wrath and denunciation of the Jews. No man in the public service in America can say that the Christian religion is the one he believes in, because in this case he would be exposed to blame and classification of the Jews. Because the Jews' hopes were in the Jewish prophecy (the elimination of Christianity).

The number of Jews in America is not really known by non-Jews, as the numbers are the property of the Jewish authorities alone, and whenever US circles try to find out, Jewish influence is on the lookout to prevent that.

The increase in Jewish immigration to the United States made the Jews call it “the Land of the Jews,” where the Jew does these:

He opposes any legislation restricting his entry into the country.
He opposes any racial classification of his group after they enter the country.
He claims in front of others that he represents a religion, not a race.
He has two opinions: he confronts non-Jews with one of them, and keeps the second for himself and does not express it publicly except in front of Jews.
Therefore, there will be no census of Jews in the United States.

If we want to talk about the nationality or religion of the Jew... then “every Jew, whether he wishes to or not, is closely linked to all Jewish nationalism.” And that "the Jewish religion above all else...is Jewish patriotism." The United States Supreme Court justice said, “Our instincts and actions have determined for us the meaning of the word Jew.”

What is noteworthy is that the opening ceremony of the “American Jewish Committee” in 1906 was attended by delegates representing 222 Jewish associations, religious, political, industrial, and sectarian. A year later, the organizations subject to this committee became 688 organizations, and then the number rose in 1921 to more than 1,000. After that, the statistics are no longer known.

The Jews also tried to make New York a Jewish city, and thus the United States, a Jewish country. The conservative Jews were terrified as they expected that the American people would not tolerate this. In the beginning, it was the committee called Kehilla New York, then it expanded its work and became called the World Jewish Congress. The Jews of New York constituted the driving force of the international Jewish apparatus.

This is the tip of the iceberg about the history of the Jews in the United States, and this is how they began in the United States.

The article is illustrated this way:

Because that's what the Jews who control the US look like.

Gazans now receive MORE goods than they imported before the "blockade"

The latest report from the UN's office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs for Gaza includes this little fact:

In August, 12,076 truckloads of authorized goods entered Gaza through the Israeli and Egyptian-controlled crossings. This is 18 per cent more than the volume of goods entering in July, 36 per cent more than the monthly average in 2022, and 8 per cent more than the monthly average just before the blockade in 2007.

Yes, Gazans now get more good than they did before the closure.

The UN tries to ensure that this isn't a big deal, by adding, "However, Gaza's population has grown by 60 per cent since 2007, and so have their needs."

However, its chart of imports to Gaza (from both Israel and Egypt) show that the number of truckloads of goods to Gaza in August is more than double the number in 2006, the last full year before the restrictions, and about 30% higher than in 2005. It appears that in the months before the Hamas coup, Gaza was receiving record levels of imports, anomalously so - but those are the numbers the UN always uses to compare with today.

The chart itself shows that in terms of amount of goods imported into Gaza, there has not been a significant decrease from 2006 levels since 2015!

This chart shows that the "closure" is largely a myth spread by NGOs to maintain their funding sources. Israel restricts (some) products that can be turned into weapons, and nothing else.

Good luck finding this little fact reported in the media.
