Saying I’m Sorry Is OK

President Obama was not able to aid Israelis and Palestinians to resolve their differences but he was able to aid Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to end his childish behavior toward Turkey and apologize for the Gaza debacle.  An official on Air Force One said that Netanyahu had apologized to Prime Minister Recep Erdogan for the  murder of innocent Turkish people who were attempting to bring aid to inhabitants in Gaza in 2010. “On behalf of Israelis he apologized for any deaths” that occurred. He also promised to compensate families for loss of their relatives. Netanyahu also spoke with Erdogan who accepted the apology.

When Benjamin Netanyahu assumed the office of prime minister of Israel his nation had close ties with Turkey. Within two years his behavior led to the end of friendship including the end of joint military exercises by both armies.

For some reason the people of Israel prefer a prime minister who ends alliances!

Obama Meets Another Boehner

President Barack Obama is in Israel and had made a side trip to meet Palestinian leaders in Ramallah. If anyone knows  how it feels seeking a compromise with an individual who simply will only compromise if the rights of wealthy people are protected,  then Obama is an expert in these conversations. After all, he has met with John Boehner whose idea of “compromise” is agreeing there will not be any further taxes on those with wealth. Ironically, Obama told Palestinian leaders they should enter into negotiations with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu who continues taking away land from Palestinians and has made clear the border of 1967 is now void. In other words, Palestinians have to accept a new border, Palestinians have to accept Jews on land the UN has made clear belongs to Palestinians.

The president, in effect, told Palestinians they should not use Netanyahu’s refusal to compromise as “an excuse” to enter into negotiations. I assume Obama will enter into negotiations with Boehner with the understanding there will be no further rise in taxes on the wealthy!

Stay Home Great Satans!

Iran’s Ayatollah Khamenei does not  wish any conversation or compromise with the two Satans who inhabit planet Earth. He  made clear to Israel that if they dare to attack any area of Iran the consequences will be drastic. If Israel threats are transformed into attacks, he warned that any such mistake would lead the Islamic regime “to raze Tel Aviv and Haifa to the ground.” Those in Jerusalem are safe since that city is holy to three religions. His comments are no different than similar comments made by Israel officials about destroying areas in Iran if there was continued work on nuclear development.

Khamenei also sent a message to the United States which seeks to negotiate nuclear weapon issues. “What they mean by talks is that we sit down and talk until Iran accepts their viewpoint.”

There is need for evidence from the US that the goal of talks is compromise. We suggest return of all frozen Iranian funds as a gesture of good will.

Tragedy Of Israel

There is something ironic in having  an American president visit the state of Israel and offer words of advice that compromise is important in resolving conflicts. President Obama confronts nut cases from the Republican party who oppose any form of logical economic programs to handle a recession. He daily encounters men like Congressman John Boehner, who when confronted by evidence the economy is advancing without further tax cuts, insists the solution is to reduce taxes on the wealthy. Israel has its version of the Republican party and men like Boehner. Incoming Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon opposes any  compromise with Palestinian leaders and insists there is no need to halt further settlements on the West Bank nor is there need to release Palestinian prisoners who could aid a peace process. The solution is simple in his eyes, just “manage the situation.”

Naftali Bennett,  head of the Jewish Home Party, promises to oppose any Palestinian state and his fellow idiot, Avigdor Lieberman is dead set against compromise or peace  deals with Palestinians. So,why is President Obama going to Israel?It is show and tell to prove to right wing Republicans that he does not intend to use his power to protect the rights of Palestinians.

Obama has consistently refused to work for peace in the Middle East. I assume he intends to pass on to the next president this problem. Polls in Israel reveal that  two-thirds of Israelis want to witness the establishment of a Palestinian state. This is the tragedy  of Israel.

Another Red Line For Israel

The government of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu enjoys informing the American government of the importance of drawing red lines to inform Iran or Syrians as to what they can or can not do. The latest red line being demanded is that American planes should destroy Syrian missile sites if there is any evidence these weapons are being turned over to Hezbollah. The Israel request makes military sense since the prospect of Hezbollah in  possession of such weapons poses a threat to peace in the Middle East.

However, if the US has to draw red lines in sand so should Israel. If the US should be asked to risk lives of Americans, so should Israel be asked to draw a red line in the sand and inform West Bank settlers they must evacuate land that belongs to Palestinians. Why when it comes to West Bank settlers must the Israel government back away? Is Israel  would seriously move toward peace with Palestinians the fear of Hezbollah would weaken.

Lies of March Are Upon Us

It is now ten years since the Bush administration informed Congress and the American people that Saddam Hussein possessed Weapons of Mass Destruction which compelled an invasion of Iraq in order to destroy those alleged weapons of destruction. A new report from England reveals that President Bush lied and that Prime Minister Tony Blair lied. M16 and the CIA received concrete information PRIOR to the invasion of Iraq that Saddam did NOT have any weapons of mass destruction. Iraq Foreign Minister Naji Savbri informed M16 agents that his country did not have what the dynamic duo of Bush and Blair were shouting they had  to the entire world. An M16 agent met with Iraq head of Intelligence, Habbush al Tikriti who also passed on similar information.

The invasion of Iraq had nothing to do with WMD. It had to do with the insane idea of President Bush to transform the Middle East into a junior version of American democracy. It has to do with a alleged “clash of civilizations” which threatened America. Yes, an Iraq missile, which, if it actually existed, could not go more than a few hundred miles and thus threatened the US!!

Hungry Hungers For Authoritarian Leaders

Hungary is supposedly a member of the European Union whose goals are to further the goal of democracy. However, Prime Minister Viktor Orban is determined to wipe out the very semblance of democracy in his nation. His conservative Fidesz is pushing through Parliament laws that weaken the power of the once independent courts. Hungarian constitutional lawyer, Gabor Halmai, terms the proposed laws an effort that would result in a ‘systematic abolishment of the constitutional order.” Others claim these new laws upset the balance of power between the executive, legislature and judicial branches of government.

Orban has previously attacked “Jewish influence” in government and even claimed that Jewish leaders in Hungary are in reality agents of the Israel government. The new order is simply an attack on free speech and the free press.

Truth Of Chavez MURDER!

We realize there are naive people who actually believe that our great and glorious leader, HUGO CHAVEZ died of cancer, but we now offer proof that the man who loves all poor folk, was poisoned by the Israel Mossad and American CIA agents! We are pleased to learn an official inquiry has been set up to finally get at the truth of what really happened to HUGO. As acting President Nicolas Maduro has noted: “We have the intuition that our commander Chavez was poisoned by dark forces that wanted him out of the way.” What better way than to inject him with cancer??

We have it on authoritive sources that a Jewish man was spotted in Caracas six months ago, allegedly there for a visit. He was wearing a black coat and had on a black tie. He referred to a friend as “Moe.” Obviously, a sign that he was part of Mossad. There are also reports the American Embassy in Caracas donated food to the hospital where our commander was lying. We have proof that a man working in the kitchen of the hospital was seen walking by the door of the room where our commander was lying. This man was seen talking to a JEWISH doctor in the hospital and gave him a package!

First, the CIA came for our commander, next they will be coming for Kim Jong-un, and finally, they will be coming for the great defender of demcracy, Bashar al-Assad!!

An Israel Voice For Peace

Few people who utter words concerning the conflict betwen Israel and Arab nations are aware that during the 20th century there were Jews and Muslims and Christians who worked for peace. Few realiza that among early leaders of the PLO were Christians who also desired an Arab nation. It is not surprising that Israel Prime Minister Shimon Peres told French Imams of the importance for all nations to aid the people of Syria. “The Arab League can and should form a provisional government in Syria to stop the massacre, to prevent Syria from falling to pieces. The United Nations should support the Arab League to build an Arab force in blue helmets.”

Peres identified Iran as an enemy, not merely of Israel, but of Muslims who seek a world of peace. Jews have a responsibility to work with our Arab brothers and sisters in the struggle for modern societies in the Middle East which welcome all   people regardless of religion.

Koran Wars Continue

The one certainty about life in the Middle East is at some point someone will become upset at sine insult to their religion. Print a cartoon, bump into a m an wearing a  hat on his head which results in it falling to the ground, express the wrong words, trample on something that  someone regards as holy, it goes on and on this senseless useless war. A group of Muslim women were sitting on a bench at Jerusalem’s al-Qusa mosque when an Israel policemen approached  claiming they were blocking some Israelis who wanted to visit the area. By accident, she dropped her Koran and the policeman picked it up. World War III was ready to begin!

Rumors soon spread that Israel police had trampled on the Koran. Men came running with stones and bombs, objects were thrown,shots rang out and soon panic ensued. It is time for the Israel government to assist creation of a Palestinian nation so Muslim religious sites are guarded by Muslim police.
