The Mecca Accords and Israel

I have found a kind of scholarly version of the Mecca Accord. I provide it as an alternative to the DEBKAfile analysis I posted on February 11 at SlantRight.com. I still agree with DEBKAfile assessment that Saudi Arabia is re-asserting influence over the Palestinians via money and a mutual affinity of the Sunni Sect. The Saudis were beginning to view Shi’ite Iran as usurping Saudi preeminence.

 

The MEMRI analysis I am posting does not mention Iran specifically as does the DEBKAfile; however MEMRI does imply that the Saudis created Hamas as a counter to Iran client terrorist group Hezbollah.

 

I encourage all to take the time to read the MEMRI analysis. You will come away understanding that the Mecca Accord and the Saudi government will continue to remain hostile to the existence of a Jewish nation known as Israel.

 

Once you have that understanding, keep it in mind when you read praise from the Mainstream Media (MSM) and beaming congratulations on the efficacy of diplomacy over guns and military might. The Mecca Accord is merely a Mohammedan duplicitous move to end Israel’s existence.

Israel desperately need friends

Abraham, Peter H. Haralamos II 2005

I am a member of what Jews and mainline Christian denominations would call the Evangelical Christian Right. From the Jewish point of view, there is a huge distrust of Christians in general because of a long history of anti-Semitism in Europe. I have just read from MICHAEL H. STEINHARDT writing for the Jerusalem Post, that the Jews of Israel particularly mistrust Evangelicals. The reason being, Evangelicals support Israel based on eschatological belief systems with Jewish Temple building, Biblical Jewish borders, Jesus Christ as the returning Messiah to submerge Judaism into Christianity and a bit of intolerance on social issues from abortion to prayer in schools and so on.

 

Steinhardt makes the point that Jews need to get over it. Why? Evangelicals and Jews have one common agreement: The Land Israel needs to continue existence as a nation in perpetuity.

Sudden Jihad Syndrome

Islam schools teach jihad
Islam schools teach jihad

Here is the Left’s explanation for the violence of home grown Mohammedans: Sudden Jihad Syndrome.

 

So there you go. It is the ultimate in appeasement and burying one’s head in the sand. The left cannot believe their own eyes: when individual Mohammedans go on a murderous rampage, political correctness cannot associate the perfidy with political Islam. NO! It must be a mysterious malady that neurologically explodes in a Mohammedan’s brain which causes him or her to kill innocent non-Mohammedan Westerners.

 

Carolyn Glick examines the mystery how the police authorities and Universities of the West promote Jihadists and discriminate against Jews.

The global community generally condemns the Bush Administration wish to prevent WMD quality nuclear enrichment from occurring in Iran. Well really I guess the global community does not complain about the idea of prevention, rather they denounce the Bush Administration call for harsh sanctions or military intervention to prevent a nuclear Iran.

 

 

The global community (particularly EU) did not learn the lesson of Neville Chamberlain: dealing with devils only stalls the inevitable. The “Peace in our time” pitch is a devilish lie to build an armament to achieve the political goals stated in public and in writings.

 

 

Here is a Jewish perspective from Arutz Sheva.

Whether or not reports from Western media are rumor or propaganda, WorldNetDaily is reporting that Iran is preparing for an attack. One of the Shi'ite psycho-nation’s preparation methods is to notify their client terrorist organizations to retaliate against the USA and Israel regardless if an attack is a joint effort or a singular effort.

Help Prevent Shari'a at Twin Cities Airport

Obey Sharia in Cab or else
Obey Sharia in Cab or else

Okay I realize this post might be a little dated, however readers need to be made aware that Mohammedans in America are attempting to set apart the Law of the Land.

 

The Politically Correct are so concerned about Islamophobic Americans that they are willing to allow Mohammedans to enjoy their intolerant beliefs at the expense of non-Mohammedans. This issue has arisen in the Twin Cities (Minnesota) in which Mohammedan cab drivers refuse service to airport patrons that might violate their beliefs. Apparently a significant amount of cab drivers in the area are Mohammedan.

 

To uphold the ability of Mohammedans to discriminate against patrons that carry items that are legal is to allow a precedent of Mohammedan Sharia Law to be Superior to American Constitutional Law. This cannot happen!

Help Prevent Shari'a at Twin Cities Airport

Little Green Footballs
Date: 2/22/2007 at 6:42:07 pm

We’ve had several posts about the Muslim cab drivers at Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport, and their refusal to accept passengers carrying alcohol and blind people with guide dogs, at the urging of the Muslim Brotherhood front group calling itself the Muslim American Society. Daniel Pipes sent out an email to his list on this subject, because the Metropolitan Airports Commission is inviting the public’s input on the matter. The public hearing notice for the Airports Commission is here: Taxicab Ordinance #102: Public Hearing Notice.

And here’s Daniel Pipes’ email on the subject: More on Those Alcohol-shy Minnesota Taxi Drivers.

Dear Reader:

A further decision is due in the controversy over taxi drivers at the Minneapolis-St. Paul International Airport who refuse to transport passengers visibly carrying alcohol. The Metropolitan Airports Commission, which has jurisdiction over the drivers, invites the public’s opinion; and I urge your involvement.

 

MAC has sent a notice (which I have posted in full on my website) that recounts developments since its decision in October 2006 to deny requests by drivers to distinguish between Shar’i-compliant and –noncompliant taxis. MAC writes:

For the past several months, the Metropolitan Airports Commission has worked with airport taxi industry representatives and with leaders from the Muslim American Society and the Somali Justice Advocacy League. The goal was to find a solution acceptable to everyone and transparent to the customer seeking airport taxi service. Unfortunately, those discussions have not resulted in a workable, voluntary, consensus-based solution. As a result, the Airports Commission is proposing stricter penalties for refusal of service: a 30-day suspension of a driver’s airport taxi license for the first instance, and license revocation for a second instance.

Bravo to MAC. It is important that the drivers be sent a strong signal that they must obey the regulations. Were they allowed to boycott travelers with alcohol, I pointed out in “Don’t Bring That Booze into My Taxi,” that would intrude Islamic law “into a mundane commercial transaction in Minnesota” and could lead to the transport system as a whole being divided “between those Islamically observant and those not so.”

I appealed to readers in October to urge MAC to impose penalties on those who insist on imposing Shar’i norms in Minnesota and to send a message that this practice is unacceptable. The barrage of e-mails and phone calls had the hoped-for effect. According to airport spokesman Patrick Hogan back then, “we’ve heard from Australia and England. It’s really touched a nerve among a lot of people. The backlash, frankly, has been overwhelming. People are overwhelmingly against any kind of cultural accommodation.”

 

Again now, I appeal to all those opposed to application of the Shari’a in the United States to make their views heard in Minnesota. You can do this in either of two ways.

In writing: MAC is asking for “input from the public” through Friday, March 2, 2007, before it makes a decision on the proposed increase in penalties. Written comments should be addressed to:

Landside Operations Department
Metropolitan Airports Commission
MSP International Airport/Lindbergh Terminal
4300 Glumack Drive
Suite LT-3129B
Saint Paul, MN 55111-3010.

In person: For those living in the Twin Cities area, MAC will hold a public hearing on Tuesday, February 27, 2007, at 2 p.m., to solicit testimony from the public via verbal or written testimony. The location will be at:

Ramada Mall of America (formerly, the Thunderbird Hotel)
2300 East American Boulevard
Bloomington, Minnesota

I thank you in advance.

Yours sincerely,
Daniel Pipes

India: Who is in Whose Camp?

Asia - Focus on Russia, China & India
Asia - Focus on Russia, China & India

When the Bush Administration approached India about strengthening ties, I presumed it was a good thing. When the talks turned to the topic of nuclear power exchange I thought, “Wow!”

 

 

The “Wow” was because India has had a history of enmity with Mohammedan nations (Pakistan in particular) and China. At the time I believed a potential America/India alliance could hold the future in a positive light as the inevitable clash between West and political Mohammedanism crashed into explosive conflict.

 

I was so confident of a future ally that I overlooked the old friendship between India and the former Soviet Union.

 

 

Last week Russia, China and India held a Summit discussing geopolitics in New Delhi and how the three could enhance their presumed National Interests. Officially the Summit was a cumbaya get together to talk about how the three could influence world peace (blah, blah). However the topics included North Korea and the use of multilateral diplomacy to handle global crises (such as Iran).

 

 

This troika of friendship cannot be good for the good ole’ USA. If this troika embarked on economic and military cooperation it would definitely challenge American global influence and National Interests.

I still cannot get past the primary military purveyors to rogue nations and consequently to Islamofascist terrorists and an India hook-up. As I have written these words still is a huge target of Islamofascist terrorism. My guess is since the end of WWII India is second only to in the frequency radical Mohammedans murdering innocent non-Mohammedans.

 

 

It was Mohammedan Imperialism in India's history that slaughtered Hindus in India and basically eradicating Buddhism in the land of its birth. Forced conversions occurred in India during the Mohammedan Imperialism. Hindus also faced extermination and torture for being polytheists; however the Hindus managed to survive extermination in India.

 

 

With all this in mind what boggles me is India getting into the bed of the suppliers of its loathsome enemies.

Murtha’s Slow Bleed Strategy

Murtha’s “Slow Bleed Strategy” is aimed at stopping the Troop Surge, however what it really does is exact a demeanor of defeat and places the Troops in Iraq in harms way by holding back funds that provide equipment that protect our soldiers.

 

 

Does anyone see the irony? Not too long ago the Democrats were castigating President Bush for not planning well enough for soldiers to have the proper equipment for protection of our soldiers, now Murtha is attempting to make soldier safety an uncertainty in his crusade to administer a defeat for America in Iraq.

Stop the Pelosi-Murtha 'Slow Bleed' Today

Republican National Committee
E-Newsletter 8:32 AM 2/22/07
Mike Duncan, Chairman Republican National Committee

Last week, I wrote to you about the Democrat 'slow bleed' strategy for Iraq. Proposed by John Murtha, 'slow bleed' would do exactly what it sounds like: gradually take away the resources our men and women need to fight the terrorists in Iraq. It would limit reinforcements, and possibly even close the bases that offer support and shelter for our troops. The Democrats had hoped to keep the 'slow bleed' plan under the radar by adding it onto other bills, but now even the liberal press are reporting on the story.

A Washington Post editorial last Saturday described the Murtha 'slow bleed' plan as "crudely hamstringing the ability of military commanders to deploy troops" and went on to say this: "Mr. Murtha's cynicism is matched by an alarming ignorance about conditions in Iraq. He continues to insist that Iraq 'would be more stable with us out of there,' in spite of the consensus of U.S. intelligence agencies that early withdrawal would produce 'massive civilian casualties.' He says he wants to force the administration to 'bulldoze' the Abu Ghraib prison, even though it was emptied of prisoners and turned over to the Iraqi government last year. He wants to 'get our troops out of the Green Zone' because 'they are living in Saddam Hussein's palace'; could he be unaware that the zone's primary occupants are the Iraqi government and the U.S. Embassy? It would be nice to believe that Mr. Murtha does not represent the mainstream of the Democratic Party or the thinking of its leadership. Yet when asked about Mr. Murtha's remarks Thursday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) offered her support."

Even the liberal columnist E.J. Dionne criticized the Murtha 'slow bleed' plan, saying that "the sense that the proposal has been crafted in part for reasons of political convenience and the intricate restrictions it would place on the military are precisely what could doom it."

Those are exactly the reasons 'slow bleed' should be doomed, and we need your help to do it:

 

·        Write a letter to your editor or call in to talk radio today condemning the Democrat 'slow bleed' strategy.

 

·        And then call your Congressman or Senator and tell them not to support a plan that would leave our brave men and women in harm's way without adequate resources to protect themselves.


The Murtha 'slow bleed' strategy is a dishonest and dangerous response to the challenges we face in Iraq. Together, we can and we must stop Congress from passing the Murtha plan.

 

Sincerely,

 

Mike Duncan

Impotent Muslims Pull Superiority Complex on Temple Mount

I cannot believe Israeli Jews give a flying flip to what Mohammedans think about Judaism most Holy Site – The Temple Mount. Evidently Mohammedan superiority complex has won the day for the ideology of death for the Orthodox Jewish Mayor of Jerusalem has acquiesced to Mohammedan rioting and international Mohammedan oinking based on an unsubstantiated myth (Quran) compared to hard archaeological evidence of a Judaic presence on the Temple Mount.
 



The Western World pressures Israel because they also fear rioting and oil deprivation pressure. And they what? France and Britain without any help from America could push local rioters back to the land of their ancestors and blow up the impotent military infrastructures of the Middle East.


Sounds harsh huh?
 


I can’t help it. The more I think about the Temple Mount, how Mohammedans treat Jews and Christians, the absurdity of the Danish Cartoons (originally published in Cairo) and on and on; my blood begins to boil. When I think of the Westerners that capitulate to these impotent foreigners, I need to reach for an extra dose of high blood pressure pills.

Temple Tantrums:
Behind the Arab riots over the Mughrabi bridge project



by David Parsons
ICEJ E-Newsletter
Fri, 23 Feb 2007
 

Israel has suspended plans for a footbridge from the Western Wall plaza to the Mughrabi Gate entrance into the Temple Mount after preliminary archeological digs in the sensitive area sparked Arab riots in the Old City and Muslim protests worldwide in recent weeks. The pretext for the violence is an 80-year-old Palestinian claim that the Western Wall is actually the Muslim holy site al-Buraq – named after the horse in Muhammad’s mythical ‘Night Journey’ to Jerusalem.
 

The footbridge was to replace a wooden ramp built on an embankment of fill material collapsing from heavy rains and earth tremors in recent years. The endangered ramp leads to the Mughrabi Gate, the only access for non-Muslims entering the Temple Mount, the holiest site in Judaism.
 

The project first required archeological excavations to identify any antiquities beneath the proposed bridge, an area rich with layers from the Second Temple, Byzantine and early Islamic periods. Once excavated, the bridge pilings were to be anchored in such a way as to preserve any antiquities found.
 

Israeli authorities had quietly vetted and approved the project, even receiving a nod from the Jordanian-controlled Waqf (Islamic trust) that oversees the Muslim sites on the Temple Mount. But when the digs began in early February, hysterical Muslim leaders incited riots in Jerusalem after Friday prayers, charging that the work endangered al-Aqsa – the gray-domed mosque on the south end of the Temple Mount
.

Israeli officials issued reassurances that the excavations were safely beyond the al-Aqsa compound. But Palestinian leaders countered that the Western Wall is “occupied territory,” as well as an exclusively Islamic holy site known as the “al-Buraq Wall.”Sheikh Raed Salah, the militant head of the Islamic Movement in Israel, urged Arabs to launch a ...

Question Pelosi’s Patriotism, Dang Right

There is a bit of a feud running between Pelosi of the and Vice President Cheney. You might say facetiously, “No kidding.” Okay I realize the Left including Pelosi has not been of Cheney’s Christmas list and visa-versa for nigh seven years, however the Democrats have arrogantly tried to use legislative authority to meddle in executive authority since January 2007.

 

The Vice President has publicly and in various international locations has said that “House Speaker Nancy Pelosi's opposition to President Bush's war buildup is playing into the hands of the al-Qaida terrorist network.” Pelosi has shot back publicly to ask if Cheney is questioning her patriotism.

 

Realize this is not a direct quote, but Cheney basically said, “Dang right.”

 

Every moment the Democrats shout we have lost in Iraq, it emboldens radical Islamofascists like bin Laden to wreak havoc on anything not viewed as Mohammedan. That is not patriotic, it is moronic.

 

Pelosi went to President Bush to squeal like a swine looking for pearls about Cheney. Let us hope the President has not lost all of his Republican gumption and sends her to the sty. As if Bush could make Cheney say something different, the Vice President cannot be fired.
