Special Jerusalem Report for providing these 20 facts which dramatically illustrate how history has been totally distorted for political and propaganda purposes in the present Middle East crisis. Unfortunately, for the most part, the worlds news media lets this information pass them by without critical analysis or incorporating it into their own editorial thrust, which often goes against Israel.
We recommend that you make a copy of these facts for your own information in discussing the Israeli-Palestinian situation with anyone who may be uninformed. We would also recommend sending it, by e-mail or letter, to the editor of your hometown newspaper, to your senators or congressman and, yes, even to our own United States President at the White House and members of his cabinet, especially Secretary of State Colin Powell.)

All of these facts are important and should be noted and remembered. Of particular importance, in my mind, is this one:
Jerusalem is mentioned over 700 times in Tanach, the Jewish Holy Scriptures. Jerusalem is not mentioned once in the Qur'an (Koran).

I can certainly verify the calendar statements ... its now 5762 in the Jewish calendar... but only 1423 in the Moslem. (Moslem year length is shorter than ours and the average Jewish year length - they run to 354-355 days, so its really less than 1423 years ago.) (Heck, even the current cycle of the Mayan calendar, doesn't go back as far as the Jewish ... Its only the year 5118 in the Mayan calendar from the start of the Great Circle number ..)
That land belongs to the Jews. Everything else is just jealousy and noise.

I got a great book from WorldNetDaily. Myths and Facts About the Arab-Israeli Conflict. Definitely recommended reading.

I must admit, before 9/11, I was not as hard core pro-Israeli as I am now. What I failed to realize then was that Israel is on the military front line defending Western Civilization. The Muslim world wishes to destroy us all. We have huge targets painted on our backs.
I am totally frustrated by GW's contradicting approach to fighting terrorism. The US is actually an obstacle to peace if we are the ones who wish to stop the IDF from finishing off the Palestinian monsters who are currently in the West Bank and Gaza.
The IDF should rain thousands of mortars and rockets during the "martyr parades" that we see so many pictures of with 8 year old boys dressed as human bombs. Send in the AC-130s and Daisy Cutters. I think that may chance some minds really fast. Until someone can step up to "lead" the Palestinians, then they should be treated no different than the Germans in Dresden, or the Japanese in Tokyo, Nagasaki, or Hiroshima. We still have peace with Japan and Germany.

7. King David founded the city of Jerusalem. Mohammed never came to Jerusalem. The Muslims claim he flew there. Really.

Additional calendar observations .. I cannot think of any other civilization that has had as long and continuous calendar without correction, other than the Jews. Patriarch Hilell (sp?) introduce the current Jewish calendar in the Jewish 4th century -- that's 5300 years ago. Their calendar has existed with no alterations since. No reforms; just the same calendar running like clockwork. Even the Chinese cannot make such a claim. They have had to reform their calendar, as I believe have the Hindus and of course ours (the Gregorian). But the current Gregorian calendar is only 1500 years old so it doesn't count in the longevity battle.
The Jews belong to a very old and noble civilzation.

"Jews pray facing Jerusalem. Muslims pray with their backs toward Jerusalem"
Geography??
Osama comes from Yemen, so wouldn't it be pretty hard, indeed a real
streeeetch for him to pray facing Mecca with his back towards Jerusalem.

Actually, the Jews, along with the other 12 tribes of Israel, were in Jerusalem long before King David.

It was some Jewish comic who observed that such a thing is impossible,
for how could you have Jews without Chinese takeout?

21. There is not one recent example of Israelis making suicide bombing runs;
22. Israeli offensives target terrorists, military, or government authority, and usually only when provoked;
23. Palestinians target civilian men, women, and CHILDREN;
24. Palestinians send 10 year old children to kill;
25. Israelis only want to live in peace and be left alone;
26. Palestinians want to drive Israel into the sea;
27. Israel is a democracy;
28. Palestine (if it exists) is totalitarian and imperialistic.

The Muslim world wishes to destroy us all. BINGO! The small amount of money we send to Israel every year is well worth for that very reason. The WTC and Pentagon attacks are estimated to have cost the US 100 Billion dollars.
There are clueless wonders out there who still don't understand this.

This is a blood fued, the children of Abraham have turned. Like Cain who killed his brother Able, history does repeat itself. Interesting note to all the Freepers out there who are into Star Trek. The Star Trek movie Insurrection is supposed to be womewhat based on the Israeli/Palestinan conflict, with an somewhat anti Israel bias. Watch the movie and tell me if you think thats true.

He "flew" there alright! Mohammed suffered from seizures and got his great revelations while under their influence. His wife convinced him they were messages from God. Does anyone out there doubt who was speaking to Mohammed?

I am sick of the Palistinian/Israeli conflict. The way it's going to end is already obvious, just as the US took all of the american indians land. The westbank and probably gaza will be incorporated into Israel, the golan heights as well. The Israeli's will find some way to get the Palistinians to leave, just as they found a way to get them to leave the rest of what is now Israeli territory. Hopefully that will be the end of it by satisfying Israeli territorial ambitions. Israeli methods have been the same for 60 years, incite the arabs to attack thereby gaining the moral advantage, then use their military advantage to take more land because it's needed for their security. Through legal manipulations they have managed to isolate all the towns and villages on the westbank, with limited access highways, which require palistinians to go through check points just to get from one town to the next.
The palistinians are like a bunch of country rubes, being cheated out of their land by a bunch of city slicker lawyer types. They play right into the Israeli hands at every turn. Suicide bombers, what a perfect excuse for some more Israeli land grabing, all in the name of security of course. Of course we're going to return to our previous borders, after we destroy the terrorist infrastructure the Israeli's say. When the time comes however, you will see that they will need to have some additional positions for their security you understand. It's clear the palistinians have been and are still being robbed. If they had any sense they'ed have used their UN support to sell their land, and gain reparations for some outrageous figure, and immigration rights to the developed world. But their a bunch of arab idiots.

Isn't Mohmammed dead? Israel can defend herself against attacks. We defend ourselves, they can too.
