Palestinian leadership slams "Nazi-like" Israeli escalation

GAZA CITY, June 22 (AFP) - The Palestinian leadership condemned Saturday Israel's reoccupation of several West Bank towns as an escalation with "racist and Nazi" undertones.

"The pursuit of the aggression by the Israeli occupation forces and the ugly crimes committed against our people, land and holy sites, and the imposition of this destructive war is a new form of racism and Nazism," the leadership said in a statement carried by the official WAFA news agency.

"The occupation forces are exploiting the silence of the international community and the Arab countries ... in a bid to bring our people to their knees," the statement said.

On Friday, the leadership called for swift US and international intervention amid concern over Israel's vow to pursue its reoccupation of Palestinian self-rule towns on the West Bank.

"We ask for the urgent sending of a international observer force in the territories to ensure the safety of the population," the leadership said.

Israel's security cabinet decided on Friday to pursue its reoccupation of all Palestinian self-rule towns "as long as necessary" in retaliation for anti-Israeli attacks.

"I think that within a few days we will control all the West Bank and that we will stay there for a long time," an Israeli official said.

Commenting on that decision Saturday, the director of the Israeli defence ministry told Israel public radio this could mean Israel might have to take over the civil administration of the reoccupied territories.

"If the outcome of the operations underway is a long-term presence of the army on the ground, and if (the army) must answer the needs of the civilian population, then we will examine this and provide the answers," said Amos Yaron.</CLARI-ITEM STORY>

I won't deal with the falsehood aspect here, but the evil hypocrisy of this statement becomes clear when you set it next to the articles saying, "Oh my brother Hitler, if only you had completed the job so we wouldn't have to..."

The greatest threat to Israel will burst to the fore the moment that Palestinian resistance ceases. Israel, given her deep internal rifts, will be in greater jeopardy in peace than while distracted and diverted from Herself by outside resistance. If the Palestinians understood this they would be in command of the most lethal suicide bomb . . . peace for Israel.

Here the Palestinians and Arabs seek the total annihilation of Israelis and they are claiming the Israelis are "Nazis". Arabs have no intelligence whatsoever. Their dumb enough to strap bombs on and murder people to send themselves to hell. There is no sanity in the Arab countries. They can't even treat their own people alright and the people continue to be supportive of their dictator/terrorists. Sharon should make a big speech in mocking the Palestinians for their gov't, their mass deliberate murder of all Israelis, and for their idiocy. Israel could wipe all their citizens out if it wanted to. And the Palestinians cry about murderous thug terrorists dying.

Say what? Nothing can be more destructive to Israel than having 30 civillians murdered every day in random locations inside Israel. The economy is in free fall, people are emmigrating, they are afraid to go out in groups and so on.

Hopefully, once the Wall is complete, they'll pull out and let the Palestinians find jobs over in Jordon or somewhere else.

The one thing that makes them apopeleptic is the thought theat they won't be able to work over in Israel. There is little more than a subsistance economy in the West Bank.... The irony is they'll get a life without Jews, only not how they hoped; won't get to inherit or even be employed in the Jew's economy, the stupid sh*ts.

You got it. They're using the tried-and-true method of accusing your enemy of your own faults.

The technique worked for Clinton.

So, while calling the Jews "nazis", the palestinians plan on a "final solution" to the "Jewish problem".

My friend Steve Plaut for a long time has said the ONLY alternative to Oslo was R&D - Reoccupation and Denazification. It seems the logic of events is pushing Israel inexorably in the direction of reoccupying the territories. The other part of the equation is dismantling and disarming the PA and launching an intensive denazification program amongst the Palestinians --- a process which will take years if not decades. This is the only solution Israel has to prevent the continued wholesale massacre of Jews. Anything else is a delusion.

Your post in no way is a response to this article. The Palestinians calling the anyone Nazis is totally laughable, considering Mein Kampf is a bestseller in Gaza.

And considering they're committing Nazi atrocities themselves.

Israel wants to keep terrorists out. Oh the horror! We also want to keep terrorists out, hence new visa restrictions regarding people from Muslim and Arab nations.

You said this so well, I thought it bore repeating.

Didn't you have a little sister who would tell on you for hitting back??

When the palestinians aren't acting like little sisters, they're hiding behind them.

There is a web site that does nothing but translate into English speeches and "sermons" from Arabic. Islamic leaders are quite upset, because for years they got away with talking peace in English and spewing hate in Arabic---and no one paid attention.

Lately, the "sermons" from mosques have been praising Hilter, saying its a shame he didn't "finish the job."

Evil always lies. It is what it does. But the book of Ephesians says that Truth is a powerful weapon. Truth shines like a light in a room full of cockroaches.

We should not be surprised when Evil twists the Truth. We must realize that exposure to the Truth is their greatest fear.

Translation: "please kick our butts really really hard, so that we will never recover"
The depths of human stupidity never ceases to amaze me.

Everyone needs to subscribe to MEMRI's free eletter here:

MEMRI: Latest News

in order to see accurately just how much bitter vitriol is focused on the US and Israel by the Arab nations.

Really.

If you have never read a translation of their publications, be prepared to be horrified.

Gee, how can the PA compare Israel to nazis, since the PA denies the Holocaust. Don't you think it's strange that they accuse Israel of doing things they deny?

Let's hope they can bring peace back to the area.
