Plan to pump water into Dead Sea makesenvironmentalists see redby Harriet Sherwood (Hija delZion para Israel - Daughter ofZion for Israel)

Submitted at 6/20/2010 2:10:56 PM

Activists unite with industrialists tooppose World Bank study into projectto transport water from Red Sea In a plastic-lined hole in a spit ofsand stretching out into the Dead Sea,something is growing in the water. Floating on top of the greenish pool– a mixture of 70% water from theDead Sea and 30% water from theRed Sea – is a white scum of algae. This is Pool No 9, dated March 2003.Next to it is Pool No 8, with exactlythe same proportions of Dead Sea andRed Sea waters, created a year ago.Here the colour of the water is red. No one knows why the two pools aredifferent, but both environmentalistsand industrialists are worried. The reason behind the experimentalmixing pools at the Dead Sea Worksindustrial complex, located at thesouthern end of the lowest point onl a n d , i s a n a m b i t i o u s a n dcontroversial proposal to build aconduit to pump water from the RedSea to the Dead Sea in order torevitalise the latter’s shrinkingdimensions. It attracts hordes of tourists wantingto float in its waters and bathe in itsrestorative mud. But the level of theDead Sea has dropped 25m in thepast 50 years and it is continuing torecede at the rate of a metre a year. North of the Dead Sea Works is EinGedi, a historic oasis where a luxuryspa was originally built on the sea’sedge. Now, guests have to betransported one and a half kilometresto reach the sea. Further north, anabandoned restaurant, built on whatwas Lido Beach, is marooned inland.Where once the sea lapped almost atthe feet of diners, there is now a vastexpanse of rock and sand. The gradual disappearance of the

D e a d S e a h a s a l a r m e denvironmentalists, industrialists andtourist authorities for years. It hasbeen caused mainly by threecountries – Israel, Jordan and Syria –diverting an astonishing 98% of itssource, the once-surging Jordan river,to provide water for their citizens.(Another impact has been to denymuch-needed water to Palestiniancommunities and businesses in theWest Bank). Industry is also toblame: the waters of the Dead Seahave been pumped into evaporationponds to allow the extraction ofminerals. Now the World Bank is conducting astudy into the feasibility of takingwater through tunnels, pipes andcanals from the Red Sea to replenishthe Dead Sea. Public hearings into the“Red-Dead Conduit” are being heldthis week. The plan, estimated to cost around$15bn (£10bn), is enthusiasticallybacked by the Israeli and Jordaniang o v e r n m e n t s . B u t b o t henvironmentalists and industry –usually in fierce opposition to oneanother – are deeply concerned aboutthe consequences. The Dead Sea Works, which extractspotash, bromine, magnesium and saltfrom the unique waters, has beenexperimentally mixing the seas forseveral years. It doesn’t like what ithas seen.“No one can answer for sure what theresponse of nature to the mixing willbe,” Dr Joseph Lati, in charge of theexperiment, says cautiously. “Wehave to go very carefully with thisproject until we know more about thebiological and chemical effects.There might be micro-impacts thatwe don’t know about until they hitus.” The red colour of Pool No 8 is due tothe blooming of bacteria, he explains.The algae indicates that the mixing ona large scale would encourage the

growth of living organisms in a seawith no life. The World Bank study is consideringa number of options, all of whichinvolve massive construction inecologically delicate areas of desertbetween the two seas. That in itselfwould be disruptive to biodiversityand costly, but the inclusion of twostretches of canal under one of theopt ions would a t t rac t fur therdevelopment along their banks. Both the Dead Sea Works and acoalition of environmentalists led byFriends of the Earth Middle East fearthe study is being rushed andalternatives are not being properlyconsidered. The governments behind the plan arepushing the study towards “certainresults”, claims Gidon Bromberg,Israeli director of Friends of the EarthMiddle East. “They are paying lipservice to alternative options. Thepublic consultations are a box-tickingexercise.” The World Bank says nothing hasbeen decided. “This is a big idea toaddress a big problem, namely thedying of the Dead Sea,” says AlexMcPhail. “We are still in the middleof a comprehensive and integratedevaluation of the proposed project.” Bromberg is critical of the Dead SeaWorks, despite its anxieties over theconduit scheme. “We have a commoninterest in not destroying the DeadSea. But we know where our interestsdiverge.” The company is only concerned withits commercial interests, he claims,and whether a change in the chemicalcomposition of Dead Sea waterswould impac t on i t s minera lextraction business – which has beena big contributor to the problem. Bromberg says the conduit planignores the root cause of thedwindling Dead Sea. If Israel, Jordanand Syria halved the amount of waterthey diverted from the Jordan river,

the Dead Sea would stabilise, he says.That would require ending the freesupply of water to agriculture andasking some fundamental questions:“Do we need to grow bananas in themiddle of the desert? Do we need toflush our toilets with clean drinkingwater?” The Dead Sea will never completelydisappear, says Bromberg. Freshwater continues to seep into the seafrom the earth below it, and as the seacont inues to drop the rate ofevaporation is slowing. “At somepoint the amount of water coming inwill equal the evaporation,” saysBromberg, leading to the sea’sstabilisation. The solution, accordingto Noam Goldstein of Dead SeaWorks, lies at the other end of theDead Sea: “The best solution is forthe Jordan river to flow again – this iswhat nature intended.”• Sea level• Water• Israel

The Mosques and Bank Robbers of Parisby Daniel Greenfield @ theSultan Knish blog (Hija del Zionpara Israel - Daughter of Zionfor Israel)

Submitted at 6/20/2010 7:48:00 PM

What does this horde of slaves, Of traitors and conjured kings want? For whom are these ignobletrammels , these long-prepared irons? La Marseillaise While Jews are fleeing Paris due toMuslim violence and harassment,R o b e r t H a r o u s h , a n I s r a e l ibusinessman, decided to fund thereconstruction of a mosque in order tobuild a “bridge of peace”. Theshortage of mosques in Paris, is ofcourse almost as grave as the surplusof intact cars that need burning. Andthe City of Lights needs more darkmosques, the way Baghdad needsmore IED’s. A Jew funding a mosqueto promote peace, is as irrational ashis printing up a 100,000 copies ofMein Kampf in 1939 to promotetolerance. Feeding hate does not bringpeace. And for over a thousand years,the Koran has been the Mein Kampfof the Muslim world, teaching hatetoward Jew and Christian, and theMosque has been the rallying pointfor its hateful teachings. Robert isn’t the first gullible infidelto try and build bridges of peace. Butthe problem is that when you build abridge, you had better have a goodidea of what you will find on theother side. Building bridges withpeople whose sole use for bridges isto cross them in order to kill you, isnothing but an elaborate form ofsuicide. Turkey’s Thug in Chief, Erdogan,was quite explicit about the role ofthe mosque in Islam, saying; “ Themosques are our barracks, the domesour helmets, the minarets ourbayonets and the fai thful oursoldiers.” At the time the poemlanded Erdogan in a Turkish prison.But t ime and enough fai thfulmustered from the barracks ofmosques helped propel him to power.Where he has wasted little timepushing an Islamist agenda, whichincludes the persecution of non-Muslims and the growing escalationof hostilities with Israel. Paris does have a barracks shortage,at least according to Dalil Boubakeur,of the Paris Mosque, who wants toabolish that whole pesky Separationof Religion and State thing in France,until the French taxpayers have paidfor as many mosques as there arechurches. Unlike Robert Haroush,Dalil Boubakeur who once said, “The West has dug its grave with itsown teeth”, at least does know whathe’s after. He wants more barracks.Which are useful things to have, ifyou’re fighting a war. And if theWest is willing to dig its grave bypaying for them, so much the better. But this raises the obvious questionof why anyone would want to pay to

renovate someone else’s barracks.Even if the people in them didn’thave any hostile intent toward you atthe moment. And most especially ifthey do. Even a pacifist doesn’t buybullets for his enemy’s gun. That actof folly is reserved not for those whowill not fight, but for those who donot even understand that there is afight. If former conflicts could bedivided up into those who were forand those who were against, a sizablenumber of the present targets of theClash of Civilizations insist onbelieving that nothing at all is goingon. War, what war? We’re havingcoffee here. The bridgebuilders of peace wouldlike very much to shift the Clash ofCivilizations into an Accommodationof Civilizations, turning a conflictinto a nice culture fair in which theFrench learn about Moroccanweaving techniques, North AfricanMuslim immigrants learn the rules ofa Republic, and everyone livestogether happily ever after. All thatrequires is some accommodation onboth sides. A recognition of the newreality. That the mosque belongs inParis as much as the church does. Oras former French President andMayor or Paris, Jacques Chirac put it;“ The roots of Europe are equallyMuslim and Christian.” The problem with this lovelyexpression of tolerance, is that thissort of accommodation only runs oneway. The Muslim countries of theMidd le Eas t a re no t eage r lyproclaiming that their roots areequally Muslim and Christian. It israther hard to find a Muslim countrywhere Christians actually are equal,or have any serious prospect of beingso. In Egypt, the Copts are apersecuted minority. In the WestBank, the handover of Bethlehem toMuslim rule has seen the localChristian community begin to vanish.

In Malaysia, churches are beingburned for presuming to use Allah tomean god (which Muslims in theWest assure us is exactly what Allahmeans). While Christians in theMuslim world remain a persecutedminority. While Jews who once fledMuslim countries for Europe, are nowin turn being forced into a second-stage exodus from countries such asFrance who have developed a sizableMuslim population. Against thisbackground, the true crisis is revealedto be a grave shortage of Parisianmosques. While the Muslim world is notprepared to concede equality to theChristian or the Jew– both are eagerto make him equal partners in theirsocieties. Not because Muslims haveshown themselves eager and fit to bepartners, but precisely because theyhave shown themselves to be not.This is not as much of a paradox as itseems to be. Suppose a businessman walks intothe Credit Lyonnais bank seeking aloan of 100,000 Euros. The bank willcarefully examine whether he is alegitimate credit risk. They willdemand to see all sorts of papers anddocuments to show that he can betrusted. And then the bank will offer aloan with a high interest rate. Orperhaps the loan officer will shrug,and wish him better luck finding themoney somewhere else. But now suppose that a robber fromthe street comes into the bank, armedand wearing a sizable bomb strappedto his chest, and demanding 100,000Euros. No one will ask him fordocuments or proof that he is creditworthy. He is not at all credit worthy.And that is exactly the point. Butinstead the Bank President himselfwill step out, and try to negotiate withhim. He will not send him packing,the way he did the legit imatebusinessman. Instead he will offer

him a deal. Take 50,000 Euros. Halfof what he is asking for. Interest free.No questions asked. Just as Chiracoffered to agree that the roots ofEurope are equally Muslim andChristian. Robbers have a way of getting whatthey want. Whether they are robbingbanks or entire countries. The normallaws of citizens do not apply to them.Through violence they make theirown laws. And the society on whichthey have been inflicted eithervigorously defends itself againstthem, or seeks to negotiate some formof compromise with them. How does one compromise with abank robber? Offer him half of whathe wants. Israel did that. Now it’sdone to offering the robbers 90percent of what they want. Therobbers however continue to hold outfor more. Which is reasonablebehavior for robbers. It is nothowever reasonable behavior forbank managers to invest money intrying to appease the robbers, ratherthan in guards and alarm systems. Butif one is more afraid of violence, thanof losing what one has, such acompromise seems eminen t lyreasonable . There are two reasons why onewould fear violence. Personal safetyand moral confidence. The formersuffers from physical cowardice. Thelatter from moral cowardice. Butphysical cowardice is much moresevere an affliction than moralcowardice. For physical cowardicehas its limits, but moral cowardicehas no limits whatsoever. Thephysical coward is afraid, so long ashe is in danger. The moral coward isafraid regardless of whether he is indanger or not. He stays up worryingover things that have nothing to dowith him. He is afflicted with spectersof guilt and phantoms of moraluncertainty. The physical cowardknows that he has rights, but is afraidto defend them. The moral cowardwill not defend his rights because hedoes not believe that he has any. Thatis why the physical coward fears bankrobbers, but the moral cowardwelcomes them. To the moralcoward, the bank robber is a moralfo rce because in a wor ld o funcertainties, he is decisively certainabout what he wants. This is the power of the primitive. Tothe civilized man of little faith, thesavage seems moral because of hissimplicity. The savage has no doubts.He does not concern himself over theproper balance between religion andstate. He does not worry himself overwhether there is a god or not, and ifhis commands are moral or not. Hesimply says, The mosques are ourbarracks, the domes our helmets, theminarets our bayonets and the faithfulour soldiers.” And to the moralcoward, such simplicity is bothre f resh ing and unanswerab le .

Islamic hate preacher barred from Britain ismainstream in Indiaby Robert (Hija del Zion paraIsrael - Daughter of Zion forIsrael)

Submitted at 6/20/2010 4:08:22 PM

Islamic hate preacher barred fromBritain is mainstream in India Whydoesn’t the Vast Majority of PeacefulMuslims in India denounce and shunthis hateful individual? How did heget to be so mains t ream andinf luent ia l? Tiny Minority of Extremists Update,and an update on this story. “TheTrouble with Dr. Zakir Naik,” bySadanand Dhume in the Wall StreetJournal, June 20: If you’re looking for a snapshot ofIndia’s hapless response to radicalIslam, then look no further thanBombay-based cleric Dr. Zakir Naik.In India, the 44-year-old Dr. Naik–amedical doctor by training and atelevangelist by vocation–is a widelyrespected figure, feted by newspapersand gushed over by televisionanchors. The British, however, wantno part of him. On Friday, the newlyelected Conservative-led governmentannounced that it would not allow Dr.Naik to enter Britain to deliver aseries of lectures. According to HomeS e c r e t a r y T h e r e s a M a y , t h etelevangelist has made “numerouscomments” that are evidence of his“unacceptable behavior.” The good doctor’s views run thegamut from nutty to vile, so it’s hardto pinpoint which of them has landedhim in trouble. For instance, thoughDr. Naik has condemned terrorism, attimes he also appears to condone it.

“If he [Osama bin Laden] is fightingthe enemies of Islam, I am for him,”he said in a widely watched 2007YouTube diatribe. “If he is terrorizingthe terrorists, if he is terrorizingAmerica the terrorist, the biggestterrorist, I am with him. EveryMuslim should be a terrorist.” Dr. Naik recommends the deathpenalty for homosexuals and forapostasy from the faith, which helikens to wartime treason. He calls forIndia to be ruled by the medievaltenets of Shariah law. He supports aban on the construction of non-Muslim places of worship in Muslimlands and the Taliban’s bombing ofthe Bamiyan Buddhas. He saysrevealing clothes make Westernwomen “more susceptible to rape.”Not surprisingly, Dr. Naik believesthat Jews “control America” and arethe “strongest in enmity to Muslims.” That last bit, of course, is from theQur’an: “Strongest among men inenmity to the believers wilt thou findthe Jews…” (5:82). Of course, every faith has its share ofcranks; and, arguably, India has morethan its share. But it’s impossible torelegate Dr. Naik to Indian Islam’sfringe. Earlier this year, the IndianExpress listed him as the country’s89th most powerful person, ahead ofNobel Laureate economist AmartyaSen, eminent lawyer and formerattorney general Soli Sorabjee, andformer Indian Premier League cricketcommissioner Lalit Modi. Dr. Naik’ssatellite TV channel, Peace TV,claims a global viewership of up to50 million people in 125 countries.

On YouTube, a search for Dr. Naikturns up more than 36,000 hits. Nobody accuses Dr. Naik of directinvolvement in terrorism, but thosereportedly drawn to his messageinclude Najibullah Zazi, the Afghan-American arrested last year forplanning suicide attacks on the NewYork subway; Rahil Sheikh, accusedof involvement in a series of trainbombings in Bombay in 2006; andKafeel Ahmed, the Bangalore manfatally injured in a failed suicideattack on Glasgow airport in 2007. Nonetheless, when the doctorappears on a mainstream Indian newschannel, his interviewers tend to bedeferential. Senior journalist andpresenter Shekhar Gupta breathlesslyintroduced his guest last year as a“rock star of televangelism” whoteaches “modern Islam” and “his owninterpretation of all the faiths aroundt h e w o r l d . ” A h a n d f u l o fjournalists–among them PraveenSwami of the Hindu, and the grandold man of Indian letters, KhushwantSingh–have questioned Dr. Naik’sviews, but most take his carefullycrafted image of moderation at facevalue. [...] Finally, unlike Hindu bigots, such asthe World Hindu Council’s PraveenTogadia, whose fiercest critics tend tobe fellow Hindus, radical Muslims golargely unchallenged. The vastmajority of Indian Muslims remainmoderate, but their leaders are oftenfundamentalists and the communityhas done a poor job of policing itsown ranks. Moreover, most of India’spurportedly secular intelligentsia

remains loath to criticize Islam, evenin its most radical form, lest this beinterpreted as sympathy for Hindunationalism….

It is well known in Washington that

arguments have developed betweenpragmatic Mr Emanuel, a veteran inCongress where he was known fordriving through compromises, andthe idealistic inner circle whofollowed Mr Obama to the WhiteHouse. His abrasive style has rubbed somepeople the wrong way, while therehas been frustration among MrObama’s closest advisers that hefailed to deliver a smooth ride forthe president’s legislative that hisbackground promised.“It might not be his fault, but thepercept ion is there ,” said theconsultant, who asked not to benamed. “Every vote has been tough,from health care to energy tofinancial reform.“Democrats have not stood behindthe president in the way Republicansdid for George W Bush, and thatwas meant to be Rahm’s job.” There were sharp differences overhealth care reform, with Mr Emanuelarguing that public hostility aboutcost should have forced them intoproducing a scaled down package.Mr Obama and advisers includingDavid Axelrod, the chief strategist,and Valerie Jarrett, a businesswomanand mentor from Chicago, decidedto push through with grander

legislation anyway. Mr Emanuel has reportedly toldfriends that his role as White Housechief of staff was “only an eighteenmonth job” because of its intensity. Regarded as the most demandingafter president, it involves controllingthe president’s agenda, enforcingWhite House message discipline aswell as liaising with Congress. His departure would regarded asanother sign of how Mr Obama’spresidency has been far moretroubled than expected. Mr Emanuel has privately expresseda readiness to run for mayor ofChicago, which is also his hometown though he was never part of theObama set and did not endorse thethen senator in the Democraticprimary in 2008. That would however depend onMayor Richard Daley stepping downwhen he is up for re-election in2011. The chief obstacle to taking theWhite House job originally wasdoubts about moving his threechildren from Chicago. According toanother former Clinton official, hehas let friends know that he is “verysensitive to the idea that he is not agood father for having done this”. One of Washington’s more colourful

My IDF contactby Carl in Jerusalem (Hija delZion para Israel - Daughter ofZion for Israel)

Submitted at 6/20/2010 4:00:00 PM

My IDF contact In case you’rewondering how I get all my stufffrom the IDF, meet Aliza Landes: At first it seemed the Israel DefenseForces wasn’t too keen on enlistingthe recent immigrant from America.At 24 she was much older than mosto ther rec ru i t s , and the a rmybureaucrats told her they didn’t knowLatin, forcing her to get certifiedtranslations of her university diploma,first into English and then intoHebrew. Today, three and half yearslater, first lieutenant Aliza Landesholds what is one of the IDF’sincreasingly important positions. Ashead of the new media desk at thespokesperson’s office, the now 27-year-old plays a crucial role inIsrael’s ongoing struggle to presentits point of view to the public.“I’m a huge believer in makinginformation available to people, asmuch information as possible,”Landes told Anglo File this week inher Jerusalem office. The youngofficer started her service at the NorthAmerican desk of the spokesperson’sforeign press branch, where she sawhow much information was available

but not accessible for millions of non-journalists. In addition to her regular duties, shemade it her business to send materialto what she says was the previouslyneglected community of bloggers. “Ithink they’re an up and coming classof information disseminators andopinion-makers, and so I was a verystrong advocate of providing themwith the same basic information weprovide journalists with,” saysLandes, the daughter of renownedU.S. historian and pro-Israel advocateRichard Landes. The California native says sheinitiated the launch of an IDF blog,Twit ter account and YouTubechannel, in concert with othersoldiers. As of yesterday, YouTuberanked the IDF channel, which has31,960 subscribers, as its 15th mostpopular in the world this month. “Thearmy had a website when I arrivedbut they still weren’t active on anysort of online platforms,” recallsLandes, who had noted the rapidlyincreasing importance of new mediawhile studying political science andMiddle Eastern studies at Montreal’sMcGill University. She says the importance of the IDF’sPR machine became especially clearafter the May 31 flotilla incident,when TV audiences around the world

Ittook the army’s spokesperson about10 hours to release footage showingsoldiers being attacked. These hourswithout visual evidence for Israel’sversion of the story caused the worldto regard Israel as the sole aggressor,many local pundits complained.“There was a lot of criticism and Ican completely understand why thepublic felt that way,” Landes says. “Ialso understand that they don’t see itfrom the inside perspective.” Sheuploaded the clips from the boataround 5:30 P.M., the moment thearmy’s higher-ups gave her greenlight, says Landes, who has foursoldiers under her command. “What Idon’t think people appreciate is thelogistics that are involved in gettingmaterial out,” she adds. “You can’treally expect us to send out ahelicopter just to get footage in themiddle of an operation.

Geller: Why friends of Israel once again have tomake the case for the legitimacy of the JewishStateby Robert (Hija del Zion paraIsrael - Daughter of Zion forIsrael)

Submitted at 6/20/2010 4:04:55 PM

Geller: Why friends of Israel onceagain have to make the case for thelegitimacy of the Jewish State In“Why Israel and the U.S. Are inCrisis” in the American Thinkertoday, Pamela Geller provides someimportant background to illuminaterecent remarks by the former SpanishPrime Minister José María Aznar:“Israel is a fundamental part of theWest. The West is what it is thanks toits Judeo-Christian roots. If theJewish element of those roots isupturned and Israel is lost, then weare lost too. Whether we like it or not,our fate is inextricably intertwined.” Former Spanish Prime Minister JoséMaría Aznar wrote that in the Timeso f L o n d o n . I t i s p o w e r f u l ,magnificent. And I wish him greatsuccess with his “Friends of IsraelInitiative,” but I am deeply disturbedby the direction the narrative is taking— such that friends of Israel such asAznar now feel as if they must onceaga in make the case fo r the

legitimacy of Israel. Why debate “Israel’s right to exist”or “Israel’s right to defend itself”?Why not debate France’s right toexist, or Iran’s, or Germany’s? How did it come to this? There are definite points in historywhen things are on the cusp of realchange. More specifically, there aredefining moments when the directionof history can go either way. When José María Aznar was PrimeMinister of Spain, the world was awholly different place, as recently as2004. He served at a time when men— not appeasers, shills, and tools forjihad — were driving the bus. Therewas Bush, the inestimable JohnHoward (Australia), Blair (no greatshakes, but light-years ahead of brick-brain Brown) — and one of the bestof the group was Aznar. Yet this group did not seize themoment. They thought they had timeand reason on their side. They didnot. They blew it. “The greatest threatto mankind and civilization is thespread of the totalitarian philosophy,”Ayn Rand wrote. “Its best ally is notthe devotion of its followers but theconfusion of its enemies.” To fight it,

we must understand it. Yet Bush described Islam as “areligion of peace” in the wake of theIslamic jihadi attack on America. Itwasn’t that Bush was a shill for jihad;it was just that he was uninformed,and worse, not curious. He hadwhispering in his ear the stealthjihadist Grover Norquist and his bandof Muslim Brotherhood brotherspropagandizing the nonsensicalmeme that it was “just a few fringeextremists” who “hijacked” thereligion” — as well as the planes. Tenyears and 15,511 Islamic attackscatastrophically demonstrate what aturning point that window ofopportuni ty real ly was. Grover Norquist is a powerhousewith deep pockets. Many Republicansare in his pockets and in his debt.N o r q u i s t ’ s t i e s t o I s l a m i csupremacists and jihadists have beenknown for years. Just six weeks after9/11, The New Republic ran anexposé explaining how Norquistarranged for George W. Bush to meetwith fifteen Islamic supremacists atthe White House on September 26,2001 — to show how Muslimsrejected terrorism….

MOSQUEScontinued from page 2

Because moral cowards who tanglethemselves in moral complexity, willoften look backward to a simpler timein human development. To thereactionary lure of easy answersthrough primitivism. In 1970, François Truffaut made afilm called L’Enfant Sauvage or TheWild Child, about a feral child foundnaked in the wild. In the movie, he istaken to Paris and taught how tospeak and live in human society. ButL’Enfant Sauvage was actually basedon the real life story of the Wild Boyof Aveyron, a feral child who despitebest effort of France’s experts couldnever be turned into a proper humanbeing. The difference between themovie and reality is the same asbetween what we would like to thinkis possible, and what is actually so. Inthe world as we would like it to be, aferal child can be taught to speakFrench and use proper table mannersand be just as one of us. In the worldas it really is, a feral child will remainferal. So too Islam. One cannot import an 8th centuryideology rich with blood and deathinto 21st century Paris, and expect itto have proper table manners. Yetover and over again we insist ontelling the story so that the savage isthe hero, and the civilized man, thevi l la in . Another more famousfictional adaptation of the Wild Boyof Aveyron, is Victor Hugo’s novel,The Hunchback of Notre Dame. Theheroes of The Hunchback of NotreDame are the wild and primitiveQuasimodo and Esmeralda, even

Clopin, the uncivilized outsiderscontending against the wickedness ofthe authorities. The narrative of the Good Monster,the Noble Savage, the Wise Primitivecontending against the evils of acorrupt and decadent civilization hasbeen told and retold over and overagain, many times beyond counting.But the stories we tell ourselves havea way of coming to life. And in thereal life version of such stories, thecivilization that nurtures us turns outnot to have been nearly so ignoble aswe led ourselves to believe, and thesavages coming to free us from theburdens of reason and morality, arenot nearly so nobly primitive as wewanted to think. Instead they are likeus, in that they want what we have.The difference is that we are nolonger willing to kill for it. But theyare. And so Paris has a mosque shortage.Galway will be getting its firstmosque. A mega-mosque will risenear Ground Zero. Because you cannever have too many barracks, evenwhen you’re winning the war. Andwhile we try to be reasonable, theyendeavor to be most unreasonable.Because when force is on your side,you don’t need to be reasonable. Youjust press as hard and far as you can.Over and over again, until you win. The mosque is the barracks of adifferent civilization. One that doesnot seek equality, but dominion.W h e t h e r t h r o u g h t h e s i m p l edemographics of the ImmigrationJihad, or the violent confrontations of

angry mobs and armed terrorists– thequestion is not so much “how” as“when”. The robber enters the bankand the negotiations begin.

Until thereis nothing left , and no longeranything to negotiate. What! Foreign cohorts Would make law in our homes! Great God !

Geert Wilders: Change Jordan’s name toPalestineby NoahDavidSimon (Hija delZion para Israel - Daughter ofZion for Israel)

Submitted at 6/20/2010 5:18:00 PM

Ha! Wilders says something thatalmost everybody else chickens out tosay. Go Wilders!( JPost) Geert Wilders, who leads theright-wing Party for Freedom (PVV)in Holland, said last week he believesJordan should be renamed Palestine.The Jordanian government respondedby saying Wilders’ speech wasreminiscent of the Israeli right wing.“Jordan is Palestine,” said Wilders,who heads the third-largest party inHolland.“Changing its name toPalestine will end the conflict in theMiddle Eas t and provide thePalest inians with an al ternatehomeland.” Wilders added that Israel deserved as p e c i a l s t a t u s i n t h e D u t c hgovernment because it was fightingfor Jerusalem in its name.“If Jerusalem falls into the hands ofthe Muslims, Athens and Rome will

be next. Thus, Jerusalem is the mainfront protecting the West. It is not aconflict over territory but rather anideological battle, between thementality of the liberated West andthe ideology of Islamic barbarism,”he said.“There has been an independentPalestinian state since 1946, and it isthe kingdom of Jordan.” Wilders alsocalled on the Dutch government torefer to Jordan as Palestine and moveits embassy to Jerusalem. The Saudis and the Jordanianscrapped their pants and summonedthe Du tch ambassado r fo r anexp lana t i on . The Saudi Al-Watan carried Jordan’sresponse to Wilders’ speech. Thekingdom’s embassy in Hague wasoutraged, and sa id the Dutcha m b a s s a d o r w o u l d s o o n b es u m m o n e d t o e x p l a i n . Jordan’s minister for media affairsand communications, Nabil Al Sharif,asked for clarifications. He describedWilders’ declaration as “an echo ofthe voice of the Israeli Right” and

“crows’ screams”. Which yet again makes it crystalclear that neither the Saudis nor theJordanians want a real solution to theconflict and want to keep the so-called “Palestinian issue” alive. viaeye-on-the-world.blogspot.com P o s t e d v i a w e b f r o m

An adviser to TurkishPrime Minister Erdogan is claimingthat the Turkish government urgedthe passengers on the flotilla of foolsnot to sail to Gaza. Ibrahim Kalin, chief adviser toTurkish Prime Minister Recep TayyipErdogan, also stressed that thegovernment had appealed to thecivilian-run ship not to sail for Gaza,but that it paid no heed.“We tried to convince these peoplenot to go.

Samar Hajj, who is coordinating thetrip was quoted as saying; “We are allindependent women who believe inbreaking the siege on Gaza.” According to Iranian TV:“One day after Israel threatened toattack a new Gaza-bound aid shipwith only women activists on board,the Lebanese resistance movement ofHezbollah highlights Israel’s fear,say ing i t s mi l i t a ry ab i l i ty i s“de te r iora t ing .”“Israeli threats against womenactivists and journalists who areorganizing new flotillas serve asproof of the immense fear theZionists are living in,” IsraelidailyYnet news reported Hezbollah’sExecutive Council Chief HashemSafieddine as saying on Saturday. The comment comes after earlier onFriday, Israeli Ambassador to the UNGabriela Shalev called for a halt tothe Gaza-bound aid ship scheduled toset sail from Lebanon, warning thatTel Aviv would use “all necessarymeans” to stop the vessel. Israel “is terrified by a boat carryingwomen who want to deliver aid toGaza. How will this Israel be able toface the rockets and the resistancebloc in the next confrontation?” theHezbollah official asked.

“This is the Zionist entity in itscurrent state and its deterioratingability,” he went on to say. A group of 50 female Lebanese andforeign activists have announced aplan to send an aid ship loaded withmedical supplies to Gaza, which hasbeen under siege since 2007.

Submitted at 6/20/2010 6:25:00 PM

Here are some things I didn’t get achance to blog about today: Jed in the comments pointed me tothis Israeli Channel 10 report aboutthe underground trade of Israeligoods to Gaza. This explains all theHebrew-labeled items in the Gazasupermarkets, but it goes beyondgroceries to refrigerators and watercoolers. Firas Press reports that Turkey isnow blaming Israel for recent clasheswith Kurds over the past few months.Some 10 Turks have been killed inthe past week – and 130 Kurds.Sounds d i spropor t iona te , no?Where’s Goldstone when you needhim?

Firas also quotes Al Hayat abouthow both Hamas and Fatah arestopping Gazans from traveling.Hamas simply stops them at theborder; Fatah is being stingy withpassports. One of Hezbollah’s “aid” boats,which may be the “Miryam”(“Mary”) that was supposed to haveonly women passengers, is beingstopped from sailing because it hasnot officially declared its destination. Ha’aretz profiles Aliza Landes, thehead of the IDF’s “new media desk”and the person who I contact to askspecific questions and get officialstatements. She is also the daughterof Richard Landes, of the AugeanStables blog. I met her when I was inIsrael in December, and she hostedthe IDF blogger trip to the Lebaneseand Syrian borders.

Israeli filmbanned by Frenchmovie chainby Elder of Ziyon (Hija del Zionpara Israel - Daughter of Zionfor Israel)

Submitted at 6/20/2010 7:12:00 PM

A film made by an Israeli immigrantfrom Russia, called “5 Hours fromParis,”(“ 5 heures de Paris“) has beentaken off the schedule of the Utopiatheatre chain in France. The chain’s director, Anne-MarieFaucon, made the move as a protestagainst the Israeli raid on the terroristIHH Mavi Marmara ship. The film was replaced with a movieabout Rachel Corrie. Pretty much every French website Ihave seen has been critical of themove. The movie is a light romanticcomedy with no political overtonesand most French observers feel thatUtopia is engaging in censorship. TheFrench Minister of Culture wrote aletter to Utopia expressing hisincomprehension and disapproval ofthe move. Even Utopia seemed to backtrack alittle, as Faucon originally said thatshe would be happy to screen the film“when the siege of Gaza is over” butthe co-founder of Utopia later saidthat the film will be screened at thechain in July. The director of the film, LeonPrudovsky, is getting a lot of freepublicity out of this.
