The Middle East is falling apart, according to the Palestinian Authority (PA)’s official daily Al-Hayat Al-Jadida—all because of an elaborate conspiracy on the part of the US to stoke conflict in Gaza, Iraq, Syria, and Libya.
“After the coffins of US soldiers returned from Afghanistan and Iraq, and before that, from Lebanon, [the US] adopted a new method [to protect US interests]: exploitation and creation of Islamic, Christian and Jewish religious extremism, in order to fight [Arabs] with it [this method] rather than with its own soldiers,” the article claims, in a translation provided by Palestinian Media Watch. “Taking a closer look at what is happening in the region, we can see that the wars in Libya, Iraq, Syria and Palestine were planned by the US in order to protect its interests.”
The article claims that US President Barack Obama’s shift from the “war on terror” to the sidelines of foreign policy issues is designed to inflict damage on the Arab world without directly costing US lives. …

Arab World Increasingly Frustrated With Hamas
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3181606/posts
While Israel’s response to incessant rocket fire from Gaza drew the requisite condemnations from the Arab world and some in the international community, Arab media is increasingly open in criticizing Hamas for instigating the violence.
Media in Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Egypt blame Hamas’ actions for inviting Israeli counter attacks and prioritizing conflict over the safety of the Gazan population and criticized the leadership for waging war far from the conflict, a Middle East Media Research Institute (MEMRI) report shows.
After Hamas leader Khaled Meshaal criticized Egyptian inaction in Gaza, Egyptian columnists responded emphatically.
“[Meshaal], we are tired of defending the [Palestinian] cause that you have sold for cheap to an MB (Muslim Brotherhood) gang whose way you followed even though they have lost their [own] way,” wrote columnist Hamdi Razaq. He also called Meshaal out for living in luxurious Qatari hotels instead of fighting in Gaza.
Hamas is losing its legitimacy because it was sacrificing Palestinians while using financial aid to promote its interests, wrote Al-Gumhouriyya columnist Nagla Al-Sayyid.
“All the Hamas leaders are doing – as they sit securely in their hiding places while leaving the people of Gaza alone under the fire of the Israeli shelling – is collecting donations in order to use them in the service of their ideas and the political [faction to which] they belong, while allowing the real enemy, the oppressive Zionist enemy, to fight innocents,” Al-Sayyid wrote, adding that Hamas has shown itself to be “an imbecilic and failed movement.”
First off mr. mulato would never knowingly harm his fellow muslins, secondly, well he’s just not that smart!
The world inside their heads must be a very strange place indeed.
Hamas is only a fraction of all Muslims that want to see Israel gone and replaced with a “Palestinian” state “from the river to the sea”.
Furthermore, the Palestinian Authority is Fatah.
They love making up fables.
Is there a version of Goodwin’s Law for the Muzzie terrorists where the first one which resorts to calling the other a Jew loses the argument?
Dunno. Either way, they believe in both Arab Nationalism and Islamic Socialism. And nationalism and socialism combined equals . . . ?
I’ve pointed that out in other postings, but I would say that most people in the USA don’t get that or even understand what areas they are in ... :-) ...
By the way ... I keep getting news flashes that Israel has NOW started the invasion of Gaza. It’s on!
Here’s an interesting article ...
Op-Ed: Gaza, A Tragedy of Errors
http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Articles/Article.aspx/15342
Hamas messed up, when it sold itself to Syria and Iran.
Not really. Aligning with Iran means getting Russia, Red China, North Korea and a whole bunch of others on its side.
Who did Fatah “sell” itself to? They are just as virulently anti-Israel as Hamas.
Projection, much?
So, I urge you to speak out against those who would place the United States in a position of military and moral inferiority. You know, I’ve always believed that old Screwtape reserved his best efforts for those of you in the Church. So, in your discussions of the nuclear freeze proposals, I urge you to beware the temptation of pride–the temptation of blithely..uh..declaring yourselves above it all and label both sides equally at fault, to ignore the facts of history and the aggressive impulses of an evil empire, to simply call the arms race a giant misunderstanding and thereby remove yourself from the struggle between right and wrong and good and evil.
Fatah/Hamas is anti-Israel, yes. So much so, that it has gotten itself into trouble with several groups of Sunnis by running to the Shiites—perceived as being stronger—for help (e.g., Syrian-made missiles that Iran tried to export to Hamas—captured by the IDF). It’s common knowledge that Iran has supported Fatah/Hamas on a number of occassions as Saudi support for Hamas diminished. Hamas recently even got itself into trouble with the Egyptians again. As for Russia, Russia supplied and fomented the Six Day War, and Russia has obviously been up to its old tricks again without interruption except for its short term economic problem during the ‘90s.
Muslims take whatever mental contortions are necessary to avoid ever blaming themselves for their problems. So they can simultaneously cheer 9/11 as a great victory, and at the same time denounce it as a Zionist conspiracy implemented by the CIA.
Perception when it comes to Egypt. Remember all those people in Tahrir Square chanting “To Jerusalem we go, martyrs in the millions”? They were not all Muslim Brotherhood and/or Salafists by far.
True that most Egyptians are very anti-Israel, but the new leadership is also anti-Hamas. Several nations don’t want the generic Arabs back (Palestinians, as regurgitated Rome, taking it from Hadrian, continues to designate them). Maybe Lawrence of Arabia should take them all in, given Lawrence’s fetish for them. ...or maybe Lawrence’s preferred friends in extreme southern Europe (see PIIGS, all).
But Iran and Syria were building nukes, and they don’t get along with Israel for any occasion. Iran continues to try to build and mount nukes. Way too many nuclear facilities there. And the various commie nations are helping Iran to do so. Iran, Syria and Russia are now busy with ISIS, which well trained faction runs amock in efforts to stop Iran’s long term bid to take over and rule the Saudis with an iron fist.
That’s cool. For now, chaos is better than the alternative of the new, insane political/regulator/trade folks of the world running interference for Iran and North Korea to fire the first rounds of a near-future nukefest.
Instead, the most influential folks should be occupied with wringing their hands about the chaos, until they more fully freak out about oil supplies, the cold fluctuations to come, the magnetic pole flip, losing control that they never really had and so on. That way, we peasants will have more hysterical TV shows about the end of the world to laugh at.
Really, most diplomats should return home to make milkshakes and iron shirts. They’re not all that and cannot save the world from ever seeing another high-intensity conflict. Like the debt problem, the sooner conflicts are settled more decisively, the better.
If it weren't so tragic, it would be funny.
