Health Ministry to supervise IDF medical experimentation

By JUDY SIEGEL-ITZKOVICH

 

 

Human medical experimentation may no longer be conducted in the Israel Defense Forces without Health Ministry supervision and the observance of "informed consent" guidelines similar to those relevant to clinical experiments in the civilian population.

This achievement, initiated by the Physicians for Human Rights-Israel organization and veterans who presented their case before the High Court of Justice, will be in effect now without a law, and go "on the books" when a government bill on clinical trials is passed by the Knesset.

Among the examples of such experimentation were soldiers who had "volunteered" to be tested with experimental antidotes against anthrax, nerve gas and other toxic substances. Clinical trials have been going on in the IDF for decades, with soldiers formally having to "volunteer" but many actually being pressured to agree to be accepted to elite fighting units or to get certain privileges.

The participants were in many cases not informed what pills or other substances they were taking or about the possible risks. Those whose lawyers filed the case claimed that although they were completely healthy when joining the military, they suffered from acute symptoms immediately after taking them for several days and developed chronic disorders less than a decade or two after their discharge from service.

The physicians' group expressed its satisfaction with the agreement, except the state's refusal to halt immediately all experimentation on soldiers and allow its resumption only when the bill is passed in the Knesset. In the interim, a modified version of existing ministry supervision procedures will apply to experimentation by the IDF Medical Corps as well.

The Medical Corps has just opened a special office for accepting health complaints of participants in medical experiments, informing them exactly what substances were tested on them and receiving requests for disability payments.

In a few days, an order by the ministry director-general's office will be recognized as an official IDF order to be observed throughout the military.

The Israel Medical Association, which set up an investigation committee after such complaints were voiced by some veterans, declined to make public the protocols from the committee meetings. The IMA, whose committee has completed 90 percent of their work, claimed that doing so would interfere with the committee's deliberations.

Messianic Jews say they are persecuted in Israel

TEL AVIV, Israel: Safety pins and screws are still lodged in 15-year-old Ami Ortiz's body three months after he opened a booby-trapped gift basket sent to his family. The explosion severed two toes, damaged his hearing and harmed a promising basketball career.

Police say they are still searching for the assailants. But to the Ortiz family the motive of the attackers is clear: The Ortizes are Jews who believe that Jesus was the Messiah.

Israel's tiny community of Messianic Jews, a mixed group of 10,000 people who include the California-based Jews for Jesus, complains of threats, harassment and police indifference.

The March 20 bombing was the worst incident so far. In October, a mysterious fire damaged a Jerusalem church used by Messianic Jews, and last month ultra-Orthodox Jews torched a stack of Christian holy books distributed by missionaries.

Israel's Foreign Ministry and two chief rabbis were quick to condemn the burning, but the Ortiz family says vigorous police action is needed.

"I believe that it will happen again, if not to us, then to other Messianic believers," said Ami's mother, Leah Ortiz, a 54-year-old native of South Orange, N.J.

Proselytizing is strongly discouraged in Israel, a state that was established for a people that suffered centuries of persecution for not accepting Jesus and has little tolerance for missionary work.

At the same time, Israel has warm relations with U.S. evangelical groups, which strongly support its cause, but these generally refrain from proselytizing inside Israel. Even the Mormon church, which has mission work at its core worldwide, agreed when it opened a campus in Jerusalem to refrain from missionary activity.

"Historically the core of Christianity ... was 'convert or die,' so it was seen and is still seen as an assault on Jewish existence itself," said Rabbi David Rosen, who oversees interfaith affairs for the American Jewish Committee. "When you are called to join another religion, you are being called on to betray your people."

Messianic Jews consider themselves Jewish, observing the holy days and reciting many of the same prayers. The Ortiz family lights candles on the Jewish Sabbath, shuns pork and eats matzoth on Passover.

Ami Ortiz, interviewed at the Tel Aviv hospital where he is being treated, comes across as no different from any Jewish Israeli his age. He's a sabra, or native-born Israeli, who speaks English with a Hebrew accent, has an older brother in an elite Israeli army unit and was hoping to join the youth squad of Maccabi Tel Aviv, a league-topping basketball team.

But his religion also holds that one can embrace Jesus - Ami calls him by his Hebrew name, Yeshua - as the Messiah and remain Jewish. Orthodox Jews, on the other hand, believe that the Messiah has yet to come, that he will do so only when he chooses, and that any attempt to pre-empt his coming is a grievous sin.

Rabbi Sholom Dov Lifschitz, head of the ultra-Orthodox Yad Leahim organization that campaigns against missionary activity in Israel, says Messianic Jews give him "great pain."

"They are provoking ... it's a miracle that worse things don't happen," he said.

Messianic activists appear to have had some success among couples with one non-Jewish spouse, as well as immigrants from Ethiopia and the former Soviet Union who have loose ties to Judaism.

Or Yehuda, a town in central Israel with many immigrants as well as ultra-Orthodox Jews including a deputy mayor, Uri Aharon, was the scene of the May 15 book-burning.

Ami Dahan, a local police official, says hundreds of Christian religious books were burned on May 15 in an empty lot in town. He said Deputy Mayor Uzi Aharon, has been questioned on suspicion that he instructed youths to collect the books from homes where they had been distributed and told them to burn them.

Aharon denies ordering the burning. He says the books were collected from a neighborhood of mostly Ethiopian immigrants who are easily persuaded by missionaries.

"There are three missionaries who live and work in the town, and every Saturday they take people to worship and try to brainwash them," Aharon said.

Many Messianic Jews say they recognize the sensitivities involved and do not distribute religious material or conduct high-profile campaigns. But Aharon noted a recent "Jews for Jesus" campaign with signs on buses that equated two similar Hebrew words - "Jesus" and "salvation." Public outrage quickly forced the bus company to remove the signs.

Lawyer Dan Yakir of the Association for Civil Rights in Israel says the law allows missionaries to preach provided they don't offer gifts or money or go after minors.

 

"It is their right according to freedom of religion to maintain their religious lifestyle and disseminate their beliefs, including through literature," he said.

But the obstacles are evident, raised not just from religious activists but by the state.

Calev Myers, a lawyer who represents Messianic Jews, said he has fought 200 legal cases in the past two years. Most involve authorities' attempts to close down houses of worship, revoke the citizenship of believers or refuse to register their children as Israelis. In one case, Israel has accused a German religion student of missionary activity and has tried - so far unsuccessfully - to deport her.

In incidents of violence, police are reluctant to press charges, Myers said.

The book-burning caused shock among U.S. evangelicals.

Dave Parsons, spokesman of the International Christian Embassy in Jerusalem, which represents evangelical Christian communities, said the test would be how vigorously authorities pursued the case.

"We believe there is a link to a series of incidents here in the land that involve harassment, intimidation and physical violence," he said.

The Ortiz family moved from the United States to Israel in 1985, qualifying as immigrants under Israel's Law of Return because Leah, the mother, is Jewish. In 1989 they moved into Ariel, a Jewish settlement in the West Bank, and established a small Messianic group which now numbers 60, most of them immigrants from the former Soviet Union, according to David Ortiz, the pastor and Ami's father.

He said that he built the community through conversations with friends and neighbors, but did not actually go door-to-door distributing religious material to strangers in the traditional sense of missionary work. David Ortiz says he has also proselytized in the Palestinian areas - prompting Islamic leaders there to warn against contact with him. Ortiz said he had "no problem" if Messianic Jews discuss their religious views with others and persuade them to believe in Jesus.

When the family began holding study sessions, a rabbi warned Ortiz not to speak about Jesus outside the home.

In 2005, fliers were distributed in Ariel warning that there were believers of Jesus in the community. One day, two men wearing the black skullcaps of Orthodox Jews knocked on the door and photographed Ortiz when he answered. Recently the photo turned up on a flier with the family's address.

When the basket was left at the door Ami wasn't surprised, since it was Purim, a holiday when Jews exchange gifts.

"I opened it up and I heard it and then I was on the floor and I didn't hear anything, I didn't see anything," the lanky boy recalls.

Ami was in critical condition, with severe gashes in his legs and feet and one that just missed his jugular vein. His tryout for the Maccabi team was canceled.

His family initially suspected Palestinians; Ariel is in the heart of the West Bank and surrounded by Palestinian towns and villages and, like most Jewish settlements, has been the target of Palestinian attacks (Þetta eru mjög athyglisverð viðbrögð.  Í frétt hér að neðan um flugskeytaárás landtökumanns koma fram sömu viðbrögð.  Spurning, hversu oft röngum aðila, þ.e. Palstínumönnum er kennt um.  Athugasemd mín APG). But police immediately told him the bomb was more sophisticated than those made by Palestinians since it contained plastic explosives.

"Nobody ever suspected that a Jewish group would do such a thing, that they would put a bomb in somebody else's house," David Ortiz said.

Police have since told the family that Palestinians were not behind the bombing. The family has footage from a security camera of a man delivering the package, according to a person close to the family who spoke on condition of anonymity because police say disclosing details could harm the investigation.

Police spokesman Danny Poleg would not discuss the case, saying only that no arrests have been made.

Meanwhile, the Messianic Jewish believers are taking no chances. These days they worship under the protection of an armed guard.

Discrimination against the Negev Bedouin in State Planning

Fact Sheet 
Fact Sheet and Background Information, November 2007

 

 

Facts

 

• The Arab Bedouin are an indigenous, national ethnic minority.
• About half of Israel'‘s 160,000 Arab Bedouin live in 46 villages in the Negev, all of which are not recognized by the state.
• As such, Israel does not provide the villages with a planning structure or basic and essential services such as water, electricity, sewage systems, transport, education, and health.
• The abominable conditions in the unrecognized villages constitute severe violations of basic human rights: the right to live in dignity, the right to shelter, the right to health, and the right to education. Bedouin residents of unrecognized villages live in third-world conditions in a first-world state, alongside modern settlements, inhabited primarily by Jewish Israelis.
• At the same time, Israel actively encourages Jewish citizens to relocate to the Negev region, with a wide variety of government incentives, while simultaneously pressuring the Negev Bedouin citizens to move to seven government-planned towns. This policy completely disregards the Bedouins'‘ needs, culture, and traditional way of life.
• In total, the Bedouin represent about 28% of the population residing in the area encompassing Beersheba and the territory southward, but only occupy 3% of the region'‘s land.
• The use of house demolition as an enforcement tool is applied in a discriminatory and cruel manner against the Bedouin citizens. Since the beginning of 2007, the state has demolished some 130 houses in unrecognized Bedouin communities.
• The abovementioned facts point to systemic discrimination against Israel'‘s Bedouin population at all levels of government.
  
  
  
  

A history of the legal battle

 

• 1996: The National Committee for Planning and Building published its District Outline Plan for the Southern Region (14/4), outlining its vision for the region over the next 20 years. The plan disregards unrecognized villages, presenting them on the map as open space. It allocates this land for agricultural, industrial, and military purposes. The government policy, as described in the plan, is to evict the Bedouin from the unrecognized villages and concentrate them into government-planned towns, blocking the possibility for members of existing agricultural communities to preserve their traditional agrarian way of life.
• The same plan offers the Jewish population of 73,000 in the Negev the choice of living in 106 agricultural southern communities and dozens of cities, towns, and community settlements.
• 2000: ACRI filed a petition to the High Court of Justice, challenging the inherent discrimination in the District Outline Plan for the Southern Region on behalf of representatives of three unrecognized villages and other human rights organizations.
• 2001: During High Court deliberations on the ACRI petition, state planning authorities acknowledged the discriminatory policies in the District Outline Plan, and committed to redressing them in the Beersheba Metropolis Plan, also known as the Partial District Plan. The arrangement also requires the planning authorities to involve representatives of the Bedouin community in the planning process.
• Meanwhile, government authorities began to implement a series of resolutions approved in 1999-2000 to develop outline plans for nine new Bedouin towns, some of which would have granted recognition to existing unrecognized villages and others which would have expanded the jurisdiction area of already recognized Bedouin towns.
• However, the area of the existing seven Bedouin towns does not include enough land to meet the needs of their current residents - that being said, there is surely not enough land for new residents. Until now, the individuals who were ordered to move to the new towns have had to live in temporary structures in the towns, with no connection to infrastructure - just like the residents of unrecognized villages.
• June 2007: The National Committee for Planning and Building published the partial Outline Plan for Beersheba. The plan recognized an additional two towns and marked areas for more Bedouin settlements. However, it did not include planning directives for these villages, essentially leaving the conditions at status quo.
• The plan systematically allocates the land of existing villages for purposes other than residential use by the Bedouin communities, such as forestation and industrial zones, even though many of these villages have existed for decades.
• This forces residents to live outside the law, in horrid conditions without basic services, and under the constant threat of house demolitions and expulsion. The plan also does not raise the issue of compensation for relocation.
• In total, the partial Outline Plan fails to recognize 35 of the 46 unrecognized Bedouin villages.
• July 2007: The High Court of Justice concluded that ACRI should withdraw its 2000 petition against the Southern District Outline Plan, effectively allowing organizations such as ACRI to submit objections to the partial Beersheba Plan to the National Committee for Building and Planning.
• October 2007: ACRI, along with Bimkom - Planners for Planning Rights, the Regional Council of Unrecognized Villages, the Arab Center for Alternative Planning, and the Negev Coexistence Forum, submitted six objections to the National Committee for Planning and Building. The coalition chose six communities as paradigms of the challenges facing Bedouin residents of unrecognized villages. The communities are: Wadi Al-Na'‘am, A-Sera, Rachama, Sawa, Hashem Zane, and El-Ghara.

Palestinians: West Bank settlers fired makeshift rockets at us

By Reuters

Two makeshift rockets landed harmlessly outside Palestinian villages in the West Bank on Monday, residents said, accusing neighboring settlers of launching an attack.

A source in the security establishment described the Palestinian report as incorrect.

Residents of the villages of Odala and Awarta, south of the West Bank city of Nablus, said two rockets were fired from the nearby settlement of Yitzhar. A Reuters Television cameraman saw a projectile, about 45 centimetres long, burning in a field.

A week ago, Israeli police arrested Yitzhar settler Gilad Herman on suspicion of involvement in a failed rocket attack last month on the Palestinian village of Burin in the West Bank.

The projectile failed to reach its target and nobody was harmed, although the sound of the blast triggered a sweep of the area by Israeli security forces who initially believed a Palestinian attack on settlers was in progress.

Media reports said police believe the perpetrator probably found rocket-making instructions on the Internet.

Until a truce with Islamic militants last month, Palestinians (?) fired crude
rockets into Israel from Gaza almost daily, occasionally killing and wounding Israelis. Sporadic rocket fire has continued since the truce between Israel and the Palestinian militant group Hamas took effect on June 19.

 "THEY MUST GO"

 

Rabbi Meir Kahane Z"L

Four Days Before His Assassination

 

    

KACH  was the Zionist political party and ideological movement founded by the late Rabbi Meir Kahane. It called for the transfer of Israel's Arab population to Arab (or other) lands. This would have completed the population exchange begun in the late1940s when the Arab countries EXPELLED their 850,000+ Jewish residents to Israel. Incredibly the same "liberal" Knesset which still allows Israeli Arab nationalist parties (which openly call for a replacement of Israel with an Arab state) banned Kahane and his democratically elected KACH party! They called Kahane a "racist" because he truly believed Israel should be a JEWISH homeland... how dare he be so racist!

 ISRAELI-ARAB KNESSET MEMBERS ARE AGENTS FOR THE ENEMY! 

Knesset's 13 Arab members now function as a psychological fifth column, openly backing Israel's enemies. After Israel's retaliatory attack against a Syrian radar station in Lebanon IN aPRIL 2001 in which three Syrian soldiers were killed, Knesset member Abdulmalik Dehamshe sent a condolence letter to President Bashar al-Assad and listed his return address as "Nazareth, Palestine." Another Knesset member, Azmi Bashara, flew to Damascus and appeared on Syrian television, urging Arab steadfastness against Israel.

Israeli-Arab Knesset Member Abdel Malik Dahamshe... In July 1998, he 'courageously' remarked, "Any Arab that serves the Israeli army is a disgusting criminal. We reject all forms of national service on behalf of Israel, because we are part of the 'Palestinian' people."

 

  Israeli-Arab Knesset Member Azmi Bishara ... Bashara is a neo-Nazi who praises suicide bombers, supports the Hizbollah, calls for Israel's destruction, and supports the enemies of Israel in a time of war. After the killing of three Israeli soldiers, he called Hizbullah (Lebanon-based terror group that attacks civilians in Israel's northern cities) "a brave organization that has taught Israel a lesson." On June 8, 2000, at a "victory convention" in the Israeli-Arab town of Um el Fahm, he announced to a crowd of Arab listeners that "The Hizbullah has won, and for the first time since 1967 we have tasted the sweet taste of victory. The Hizbullah should be proud of their achievement and of humiliating Israel."

Arafat Collaborator who proudly calls himself a "Palestinian Patriot!"   As were the above, Israeli-Arab Knesset member Ahmed Tibi has for decades been Arafat's official pimp. And what does this Israeli-Arab advisor to Arafat say about Chief of General Staff Lt.-Gen. Shaul Mofaz? "He's is a "fascist" who is responsible for murder." [2001]  Tibi, 41, a physician, served as Arafat's advisor for more than six years and played an important role as an intermediary between Israel and the Palestinians after the signing of the Oslo peace accords in 1993. An obvious question to ask is was this Israeli Knesset member looking out for Israel's best interests?

At the March 2007 "Jerusalem First" conference in Ramallah, Israeli-Arab MK Ibrahim Sarsur calls on Muslims and Arabs to focus on 'liberating' Jerusalem. "Just as the Muslims liberated Jerusalem from the Crusaders, so we must believe that today, too, the liberation of Jerusalem is not an impossible mission."

In Israel, the Kahanists from Kach have been driven underground because their opinions have been criminalized. Kach and its affiliates have been declared "terrorist organizations" and have been banned as "racist organizations" under Israel`s arbitrarily applied "anti-racist" laws. Arab political parties and politicians advocating genocide of Jews have never been similarly indicted or criminalized.

 THIS is not "Democracy... This is MADNESS!!! 

 WHY MUST ISRAEL REMOVE ITS ARABS? 
Kahane observed that there will be no peace in Israel while Jews and Arabs live side by side. There is nothing racist in this observation. You can argue whether the observation is true or false, but to dismiss it outright by labeling it "racist" is anti-intellectual.

FACT: One out of every four children inside Israel is Moslem. The annual Arab-Israeli population growth rate is 3.4% while that of the Jewish-Israelis but 1.4%. Do the math and you will see a demographic catastrophe just over the horizon!

    A population transfer cannot be avoided if Israel is to remain a democratic JEWISH State! The Israeli Arab birthrate is the fourth highest in the entire world (larger than India!).  Every demographer admits that the higher birth rate of the Israeli Arabs (doubling their numbers every 18 years) as opposed to that of the Jews (doubling their population every 45 years) will lead to an absolute Arab Israeli majority within the next 20 years!  This will happen even if Israel continues to take in thousands more Soviet Jews!  We are talking about Israel's Arabs... NOT the Palestinian Arabs in the so-called "occupied" territories of Judea/Samaria [a.k.a. "West Bank"] and Gaza!!!

   When the Israeli Arabs become the majority (and they certainly will unless pre-emptive measures are taken), they will "democratically" vote out Israel and vote in "Arab Palestine #2" or blend with Arab Palestine #1 (Jordan).  Either the Jewish People will transfer the Arab out of the Land of Israel or they will soon end up transferring the Land of Israel to the Arabs!  After all, in a "democracy"... majority rules.

Note: Among the Arabs within Israel are the Druze and Bedouin minorities, many of whom  ARE loyal to Israel and are even drafted into the Israel Defense Forces along with their Jewish counterparts.  These "good Arabs" HAVE earned the right to live within the State of Israel! 

.

 BUT ISRAEL IS A DEMOCRACY... 

    Every democratic country adopts democracy in a form suited to its particular needs. The reality of the Middle East is that there are 22 Arab countries most of which treat the Jew within their borders like dirt. Some won't even let a Jew set foot on their soil. In the others he is not an equal. All of them are Islamic States by law and the non-Muslim who wants to be left alone is expected to live quietly and know his place.  There is only one Jewish State and it has absolutely NO obligation whatsoever to commit national suicide in order to give their Arabs citizens those rights which the Arab would NEVER grant (nor HAVE ever granted) the Jew if the shoe were on the other foot!  Besides, there is not even one truly democratic state in the Arab world! So let them put THEIR own houses in order before they lecture Israel on the principles of democracy!

 

 

 CONCLUSION: 

    In a genuinely "JEWISH State," how can an Arab be an equal when that State has an Independence Day celebrating his defeat. Its flag isn't that of its people. He isn't trusted to serve in the army. His cousin born in Haifa and fled during the 1948 War of Independence cannot return... yet any Jew who never lived there before is welcomed with open arms. In short, Israel is his enemy's country, not his. So how can an Arab truly be a loyal citizen in a Jewish State? Simply, they cannot... and they must go!

Remarkably, nearly a quarter of a century after being written, this book is still supremely relevant. This classic was written by Rabbi Kahane in 1980 while he was serving a prison sentence in Israel for essentially warning his people about the very dangers they are today experiencing! The book outlines the problem posed by the Israeli-Arab minority, the failure of successive governments to solve the problem, and the one solution.

Poll: Blockade is making Hamas stronger 19 Jun 2008 According to a poll, commissioned by Gisha (Legal Center for Freedom of Movement) and Physicians for Human Rights-Israel, the majority of Jewish Israelis believe that Israel's policy in the Gaza Strip is not achieving its goals.  Wriiten by Elana Kirsh, Jerusalem Post Online, June 18 An overwhelming majority - 83 percent - of Israelis surveyed believed that Hamas has strengthened since closure was imposed on Gaza, while 68% said they believe that Israel's security situation had worsened since that time. The closure of the Gaza Strip will not end Palestinian support for Hamas, according to 78 percent of respondents, and 60% said the closure is making life so difficult for Gazans that it is likely to cause more support for Islamic extremism. Regarding international opinion, the survey showed that two-thirds believed the closure is diminishing Israeli's standing, with one quarter saying that the policy is making Israel look "much worse." The survey also looked at Palestinian human rights, where the majority was found not to believe support for such rights is anti-Israel, though 39 percent disagreed. Data showed that 44% of respondents identified themselves as right-wing, 20% called themselves centrist, and 21% left-wing. Poll writer and analyst Dalya Scheindlin said the survey showed "that Israelis do not believe that the policy of pressuring Gaza residents is effective," and that "there is a strong consensus that the closure primarily affects civilians but is completely ineffective at causing them to replace the Hamas regime." The director of Gisha - Legal Center for Freedom of Movement, Sari Bashi, surmised that Jewish Israelis were "more realistic" than politicians, and said that "Israeli decision-makers would do well to listen to the people, who are warning them that Israel's policy in Gaza is primarily harming Palestinian civilians - against Israel's own interests." The survey was written and analyzed by independent pollster Dalya Scheindlin, and commissioned by the human rights groups Gisha (Legal Center for Freedom of Movement) and Physicians for Human Rights-Israel

Fyrir ekki löngu síðan jarðsöng predíkari á norðurlandi mann, sem látist hafði eftir löng og erfið veikindi.  Fylgdi veikindum mannsins, og dauða, mikil sorg fjölskyldu hans og aðstandendum, enda maðurinn elskaður mjög af konu og börnum.  Í líkræðunni gerði predíkarinn alvarleg mistök, þar sem hann rangfeðraði fjölskyldumeðlim.  Eftir athöfnina kom ekkjan í tilfinningaólgunni, sem fylgir kringumstæðum sem þessum, og bar sig upp við predíkarann um fyrrnefnd mistök hans.  Hann hafði engar vöfflur á, en bauðst til að endurtaka athöfnina!   Engin beiðni um afsökun eða fyrirgefningu hefur borist frá predíkaranum.

Fyrirsjáanleg viðbrögð!

Enda hér allt í besta gengi, að sögn Geirs HH, smávægileg verðbólga og atvinnuleysi í uppsiglingu.  Það bitnar mest á fátæklingum og því óþarfi fyrir formann Sjálfgræðisflokksins að hafa áhyggjur af svoleiðis smámunum!

Ekki útlit fyrir að þing verði kallað saman

Ekki hissa!

Þegar þetta lið getur ekki skammlaust flett uppí símaskrá, einsog ljóst varð í Júgóslavíu á sínum tíma.  Þar gerði Nato herinn iðulega árásir á rangar byggingar.  Má sem dæmi nefna árás á Kínverskt Sendiráð, árás á útvarpsstöð o.s.frv.

Gengur varla betur með landakort en símaskrá!

Ísraelskir "extremeistar" sem halda úti heimasíðu um "ÓVINI" Ísraels.  Þar er að finna Elías Davíðsson, frú Dorrit forsetafrú, Ehud Olmert og 7000+ sjálfshatara/Ísraelshatara á lista sem þeir kalla dirt-list.  Því miður Ólafur Ragnar og Ólafur Jóhannsson eru hvorugir þarna.  Þetta má nefnilega heita mikill heiðurslisti!

P.s.  Ætli þurfi ekki að "googla" heitið á síðunni til að finna þetta!  En einnig má komast inn hér einhversstaðar í athugasemdum.  Einkar fróðleg lesning!

Kemur okkur við! Friður eða ófriður? Sumir munu fagna fari viðræðurnar útum þúfur! Og að ráðist verði á Íran!

Hvað myndi gerast ef BNA eða Ísraelsríki gerði árásir á Íran í stöðunni, einsog hún er í dag?  Ég hef séð ýmiskonar öfgmenn hér á plogginu með yfirlýsingar um að gera verða árás Íran.  Þeir eru sjálfsagt ekki að hugsa um hinn almenna borgara í því landi, konur, karla, börn og gamalmenni, heimsfriðinn né samskipti Vesturlanda við heim Múslima/löndin fyrir botni Miðjarðarhafsins.  Eða hver staða ísraelsríkis yrði.  Nei, þeir vilja bara stríð.  Allir sem ekki vilja stríð eru "naívistar". Þeir vilja stríð vegna þess að þeir eru þeirrar skoðunar, að aðeins sé hægt að jafna ágreining með vopnavaldi.  Annað sem einkennir stríðsæsingamennina er, að þeir vilja frekar trúa fordómum sínum og hindurvitnum, en staðreyndum.  Þess vegna, m.a. skrifa þeir pistla sína og athugasemdir um Gunnar Pétursson, sem reynir að vinna að líknarstörfum fyrir Palestínumenn og draga orð hann og athafnir í efa.  Svo dæmi sé tekið af innræti þessara manna.  Dæmi er um lækni með dauða bloggsíðu, sem skrifar í athugasemdir með yfirlæti um Gunnar, að það sé eðlilegt að ungum manni blöskri hegðun hermanna í hernaði, og gerir lítið úr Gunnar.  Stéttarbræðrum læknisins með dauða bloggið, í Samtökunum Læknar án Landamæra, blöskrar, einsog Gunnari sjúkraflutningamanni, en sjálfsagt má gera litið úr þeim líka.  Þessi læknir lætur sér hinsvegar vel líka, að því er virðist.  Eitt virðast stríðsæsingamennirnir, og þeir sem láta sér vel líka mannréttindabrotin, eiga sameiginlegt og það er að þeir eru ekki "naívistar".  Sem þýðir, að þeirra eigin mál, án umbúða, að Arabar og Múslimar eiga allt vont skilið og eiga að drulla sér heim til sín.  Og að Ísraelsríki og BNA eiga að drepa allt kvikt í löndum þeirra.  Hversvegna finnst þeim þetta?  Jú, þetta eru Arabar og Múslimar.  Hér komast menn upp með endalaust að halda úti allskyns kjaftæði um hluta mannkyns, sem þeim hugnast ekki,  svo lengi sem þeir gæta tungu sinnar og setja málflutning sinn í gjafapappír.  Þeir vilja, að heilu ríkin verði sprengd aftur á steinöld, einsog það var kallað á dögum Vietnamstríðsins, og segja það fullum fetum, reyndar í gjafaumbúðum,  nú er það Íran og Múslimar (ekki Víetnam og kommúnistar). 

   Hina stundina þvaðra þessir sömu menn um Jésú krist og kærleikann.  Frelsið og lýðræðið.

The war&#39;s seventh day

By Michael Ben-Yair

 

The Zionist dream&#39;s realization and the Jewish people&#39;s national rebirth through the creation of Israel were achieved not because of the Jewish side&#39;s superior number of tanks, planes or other aggressive means. The State of Israel was born because the Zionist movement realized it must find a solution to the Jews&#39; persecution and because the enlightened world recognized the need for that solution.

The enlightened world&#39;s recognition of the solution&#39;s moral justification was an important, principal factor in Israel&#39;s creation. In other words, Israel was established on a clear, recognized moral base. Without such a moral base, it is doubtful whether the Zionist idea would have become a reality.

The Six-Day War was forced upon us; however, the war&#39;s seventh day, which began on June 12, 1967 and has continued to this day, is the product of our choice. We enthusiastically chose to become a colonial society, ignoring international treaties, expropriating lands, transferring settlers from Israel to the occupied territories, engaging in theft and finding justification for all these activities. Passionately desiring to keep the occupied territories, we developed two judicial systems: one - progressive, liberal - in Israel; and the other - cruel, injurious - in the occupied territories. In effect, we established an apartheid regime in the occupied territories immediately following their capture. That oppressive regime exists to this day.

The Six-Day War&#39;s seventh day has transformed us from a moral society, sure of the justice of Israel&#39;s creation, into a society that oppresses another people, preventing it from realizing its legitimate national aspirations. The Six-Day War&#39;s seventh day has transformed us from a just society into an unjust one, prepared to expand its control atop another nation&#39;s ruins. The discarding of our moral foundation has hurt us as a society, reinforcing the arguments of the world&#39;s hostile elements and sowers of evil and intensifying their influence.

The intifada is the Palestinian people&#39;s war of national liberation. Historical processes teach us that no nation is prepared to live under another&#39;s domination and that a suppressed people&#39;s war of national liberation will inevitably succeed. We understand this point but choose to ignore it. We are prepared to engage in confrontation to prevent an historical process, although we are well aware that this process is anchored in the moral justification behind every people&#39;s war of national liberation and behind its right to self-determination, and although we are well aware that this process will attain its inevitable goal.

This is the background of the difficult testimony we have received about actions of Israel Defense Forces personnel in the occupied territories. No need to repeat the details of the painful phenomena entailed in the occupation regime and in our battle to prolong it. Suffice it to recall the killing of little children fleeing for safety; the executions, without trial, of wanted persons who were not on their way to launch a terrorist act; and the encirclements, closures and roadblocks that have turned the lives of millions into a nightmare. Even if all these actions stem from our need to defend ourselves under an occupation&#39;s conditions, the occupation&#39;s non-existence would render them unnecessary. Thus, a black flag hovers over these actions.

This is a harsh reality that is causing us to lose the moral base of our existence as a free, just society and to jeopardize Israel&#39;s long-range survival. Israel&#39;s security cannot be based only on the sword; it must rather be based on our principles of moral justice and on peace with our neighbors - those living next door and those living a little further away. An occupation regime undermines those principles of moral justice and prevents the attainment of peace. Thus, that regime endangers Israel&#39;s existence.

It is against this background that one must view the refusal of IDF reservist officers and soldiers to serve in the territories. In their eyes, the occupation regime is evil and military service in the occupied territories is evil. In their eyes, military service in the occupied territories, which places soldiers in situations forcing them to commit immoral acts, is evil, and, according to their conscience, they cannot be party to such acts. Thus, their refusal to serve is an act of conscience that is justified and recognized in every democratic regime. History&#39;s verdict will be that their refusal was the act that restored our moral backbone.

Þessi maður verður varla ásakaður fyrir að vera andstæðingur Ísraels eða "naivisti" (nýjasta viðurnefni hægrimanna, kemur í stað gamals viðurnefnis, sem var "nytsamur sakleysingi".  Dómsmálaráðherra (?) í Ísraels 1993-96.  Mér sýnist, að mörgum okkar væri hollt að lesa og ígrunda orð þessa manns.  Ekki síst þeir sem telja sig sérstaka "vini" Ísraels.  Ég vil nú meina að þeir geri íbúum Ísraels engan greiða með því að verja mannréttindabrot yfirvalda í landinu!
