Today's headlines declare: THE WORLD Slams Israeli Incursion Into Palestinian Territories More honest reporting might state: THE WORLD Slams Israel's War on Suicide Bombers "The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of the people who are evil, but because of the people who don't do anything about it." - Albert Einstein Where was THE WORLD's voice when Palestinian terrorists savagely dismembered Jewish civilians? Did THE WORLD protest barbaric butchery of Jews in any way that really matters? Did THE WORLD's great civilizations stand up in defence of Israel? Did THE WORLD's moral conscience resolve to seek and destroy Arab terrorists who kill JEWS? Why not? Did WORLD leaders condemn deadly suicide bombers sponsored by the terrorist Palestinian Authority? Did WORLD governments threaten sanctions? Did the EU stop it's funding of PA schoolbooks, cesspools of vitriolic Jew hatred? Was Arafat stripped of the coveted Nobel Peace Prize? Did Norwegian supermarkets initiate boycotts against him? Did Heads of State issue stern warnings against the PA? Were there threats of embargoes? Did civilized nations downgrade diplomatic relations with Arafat? Did THE WORLD's great peace loving body, the UN, slam Palestinian terrorism? As world media broadcast gruesome footage of daily Jewish carnage, did mass rallies decry the atrocities? Did THE WORLD's religious leaders loudly denounce these acts of barbarism? Did the Pope cry out? Sadly, no. Just a few squeaks here and there. Not much noise. But see the Jews go out and defend themselves and HOO HAH! What a racket!! Poignant thoughts on the eve of Holocaust Remembrance Day. The Palestinian love affair with Hitler is nothing new. Adolf Hitler's 'Mein Kampf' is popular reading in east Jerusalem and the Palestinian autonomy. In it's introduction, the recent Arab edition states, "Hitler was a man of ideology who bequeathed an ideological heritage whose decay is inconceivable... This translation of the book... is taken from the original text of the author, Adolf Hitler. The text was untouched by the censor. We made a point to deliver Hitler's opinions and theories on nationalism, regimes, and ethnicity without any changes because they are not yet outmoded.." 'Mein Kampf' has sold so briskly that it has dominated the top slots on THE PALESTINIAN BEST-SELLER LIST. It should come as no surprise, then, that a map on the official PA "International Press Center" website (www.ipc.gov.ps) boldly shows "Palestine" completely obliterating Israel. Israel appears NOWHERE on the map at all. This is the Final Solution sought by Israel's "peace partner": NO Israel, NO Jews. See for yourself... "Long and narrow in shape, Palestine is about 290 miles (470 km.) in length and 85 miles (135 km.) in width at its widest point. Although small in size, Palestine encompasses the varied topographical features of an entire continent, ranging from forested highlands and fertile green valleys to mountainous deserts and from the coastal plain to the semitropical Jordan Valley and the Dead Sea, the lowest point on earth." "Palestinian National Authority - State Information Service" http://www.ipc.gov.ps/ipc_a/ipc_a-1/a_map/pal-e.html Arafat has made no secret of his intentions. This map has long been visible for THE WORLD to see, featured throughout PA information mediums: on their official PA letterhead, on the official PA television broadcasts and in the official PA school books (paid for with Euro bucks.) The chilling question which Jews everywhere must ask themselves is: Since these maps are not hidden, since they are displayed everywhere in plain view... WHY DOESN'T THE WORLD PROTEST? Consider this question in light of the chilling gallows humor circulating in Israel... Bin Ladden turns to Arafat and says, Yassir, how do you do it? How do you get away with murderous terror while the whole world is after ME?" Arafat smiles at Bin Ladden and says, "Osama, it is easy... I only kill Jews."
