Where Can the World’s Jews Go?

 

Let us, for argument’s sake, presume that Israel would not be the first choice for much of the Jews should they face needing to relocate from their present country. This is not too far from reality when considering far too many of the American Jews believe every evil thing the world accuses Israel of perpetrating. We are going to assume, for this article and potentially some not too distant future, that the United Nations had voted through the General Assembly a resolution that the Security Council strip Israel of her membership in the United Nations, rescinded the November 29, 1947 Resolution which many believe was permission for the founding of Israel (it was not anything of the kind), declared Israel a non-entity and barred Israel from any interaction with the world of the United Nations. Impossible, you tell us. The United Nations in UNSC Res. 2334 authored and submitted by United States President Obama has already declared all the regions beyond the Green Line to be off-limits to Jews. This was President Obama’s parting shot at Bibi Netanyahu as well as Israel and all Jews in general. Does anybody think for a minute that should the United States cease vetoing anti-Israel resolutions in the Security Council that the rest of the world would waste any time before delegitimizing Israel? Such would be a done deal within two weeks. So, our premise that, thanks to the United Nations, in particular a Security Council with no moral compass remaining, Israel has been ostracized from the rest of the world and the only means of reaching Israel would be to run a United Nations enforcement blockade or walk through Lebanon, Syria, Jordan or Egypt to reach Israel. Your best hope would be a very fast ship in the dead of night simply initially trying to sneak by and if intercepted, well, that is why we stated very fast ship. \

So, the world has spit Israel from its midst, surrounded her with a naval and air blockade, has already shot down two aircraft for entering Israeli air space and detained hundreds from attempting to enter via the Mediterranean and there are no numbers telling the outcomes of any who attempted entry traveling through Arab lands, but it is assumed they did not fare well. At this point in time, there are still over a million Jews in Europe and over three million, possibly four million, Jews in the United States. Were they to face rising levels of animosity both from numerous groups who have rid the world of the scourge of Israel and those who have now set their sights on the remainder of the Jews, where would they find safe refuge. When this is brought up, we hear a lot about the rule of law, human rights and the protections granted by Constitutions and legal principles. Where these arguments fall flat is when one simply looks back at the 1920’s and early 1930’s. Seeking the most advanced, politically free, most private rights protections, highly civilized, leader in physics, mathematics, chemistry, power generation, literature, music and virtually every other human endeavor all eyes turned to Germany. Germany was where scientists went to advance their careers and learn from the greatest minds on the planet. Remember that Albert Einstein still resided in Germany during this period as did most of the other top physicists of this era such as Heisenberg, Edward Teller, James Franck, Wernher von Braun, Niels Bohr, and many numerous others were in Germany making it the center of the world of physics amongst numerous other fields. So, such a purging has occurred in modern times and if one looks throughout human history, the Jews have been purged from nation after nation with some qualifying for that dubious honor more than once. So, it is not as if such is without precedent.

So, we will claim that three and a half million Jews in the United States and almost another million from around the world largely from Europe, South Africa, Australia, New Zealand, Oceania plus any region with any sizeable Jewish presence, are all forced to vacate from their homes and find someplace in this wide world where they can find refuge. This mass revulsion against the Jews would have been preceded by a United Nations Resolution condemning Jews equating them with being merely half-human and the rest alien to the safety and purity of the human genome. With the Jews now officially a taint to the DNA if they should breed outside their own and a danger should they have children one with another, the only safe path was to expel Jews from everywhere they could be identified. By this time, the world anti-Semitism had reached unprecedented levels and universal acceptance. Obviously, universal acceptance of some of the most damning claims against the Jews now being common fodder everywhere and with Israel barricaded, to where do these Jews flee? The truth of the matter is they would have nowhere to flee just as the nine-hundred-plus Jews on the MS St. Louis sailed the length of the east coast of the United States while Franklin Delano Roosevelt and the State Department refused to allow them entry to America simply because America already had all the Jews they desired. That was the official position expressed by the State Department and we quote, “Breckinridge Long, the State Department officer responsible for issuing visas, was deeply anti-Semitic. He was determined to limit immigration and used the State Department’s power to create a number of barriers that made it almost impossible for refugees to seek asylum in the United States. For example, the application form for US visas was eight feet long and printed in small type. Long believed that he was “the first line of defense” against those who would “make America vulnerable to enemies for the sake of humanitarianism.” Long and his colleagues at the State Department went so far as to turn away a group of Jewish refugees aboard the St. Louis in May 1939 when the German ocean liner sought to dock in Florida after the refugees were denied entry to Cuba. Following their deportation back to Europe, many of these people perished in the Holocaust.” Yet, still, there are numerous Jews who protest to this day, it cannot happen here. Early in 1939, an unidentified Canadian immigration agent was asked how many Jews would be allowed in Canada after the war. He replied, “None is too many.” We could take a trip around the world and seek out more and similar positions concerning allowing the Jews to escape persecution and we doubt it would be any different in such a future. \

(The refugees, (Jews)) were welcomed nowhere and could be assimilated nowhere. Once they had left their homeland they remained homeless, once they had left their state they remained stateless; once they had been deprived of their human rights they were rightless, the scum of the earth.
–Hannah Arendt, The Origins of Totalitarianism (Harcourt, Brace, Jovanovich, 1973), 267.

Now that we have basically established that it can happen here because it already happened here, let us continue with our little imaginary escapade. With no other nation on earth outside a select few who also took in Jews during the Holocaust and one even denied their Nazi allies when ordered to either murder their Jews or turn them over to the German SS Officer to return them to Germany and put them where they belonged, which of course was Japan, who along with China and the Philippines allowed Jewish refugees harbor. These nations could not give refuge to close to four million refugees without causing unrest in their own cities. Realistically, should the world decide that Israel is the pariah amongst the nations and that the Jews are the contamination which causes such, the only refuge Jews would have available would be Israel.

Perhaps the world would be kind and allow the Jewish refugees from the rest of the world to be permitted a one-time allowance to enter Israel. Such a “kindness” would likely be a limited time affair where they would be permitted at most one month and likely less to make port and live in Israel. This would be welcomed by Israel as she would likely be demanding to be permitted to give refuge. This was proven during the crisis over the Vietnamese Boat People as from 1977 to 1979 the State of Israel permitted approximately 360 Vietnamese boat people fleeing the 1975 Communist takeover of Vietnam to enter the country. Israel has always been more helpful taking people with real emergency situations into Israel from the Syrian civil war and taking care of their immediate needs. Can anybody claim that were the situation reversed that Israelis would be treated in Syria? This is the reality which was evidenced when the Arab world expelled almost one-million Jews with most expelled between 1948 and 1960. The majority were taken in by the young state of Israel despite hardships, difficulties and challenges this caused. Israel did not have sufficient housing and some refugees had to initially be housed with families in Israel who stepped forward and assisted their brothers and sisters. This also is why Israeli statistics today we find that approximately half of the population originated from the Arab world. The idea that the Jews could simply return to Europe if Israel disappeared is as false as any premise could be. These Arab nations would most certainly not permit a single Jew to return and the Europeans would not be much more willing. What we witness today across one third of the world and another third of the world not far behind does not bode well for the future for Jews in the world outside of Israel. This is a reality which the Jews will need to face and unfortunately it will be sooner rather than later. This is true even in the United States as evidenced in this poster which was distributed on the campus of the University of Illinois at Chicago. This is a sign of traditional Jew hatred and such has become endemic on numerous campuses in the United States and across Europe. All the signs are evident for one who is capable of reading the direction politics, life, public opinion and the general mood is headed, and I have been watching and warning Jews since the late 1960’s receiving numerous rebuffs and worse. Perhaps, if my protestations caused a small number to sit up and notice, then I had a positive effect.

Anti-Semitic Flier used on Campus of the University of Illinois at Chicago

Those who claim that the Jews would never face such a scenario, especially where they reside, are simply ignoring history. History has shown that the “other” is always eventually persecuted, ostracized, ghettoized, exterminated, castigated and eventually expelled. This has not been true of only the Jews, but as one of the oldest peoples remaining as an identifiable people, and as one spread throughout the world, we seem to hold the record for such treatment. The Jews throughout history have said the same thing over and over only to end up proven completely wrong, and that is the infamous phrase, “It can’t happen here.” They thought this initially in Egypt, in ancient Persia, in Hellenistic Greece, in pre-Inquisition Spain (Andalusia), in France, Britain, Russia, Germany, Poland and on and on wherever they were to be found. The story is always the same. The Jews arrive and work at trades or take any employment which they can find. Soon the Jews are sending their children to schools using every penny they have ever saved. The Jews with education rise and become respectable. The Jews are finally accepted and this continues for a period of time. Then there would begin some anti-Semitism which spreads slowly like a virus which had a long incubation period. Eventually, the anti-Semitism hits a crucial tipping point and from that time on things start to go awry for the Jews. Initially they no longer receive promotions and their employment reviews head south. Things snowball from there and soon the Jews are being rounded-up for deportation or worse. This is why Israel is vital to the Jewish People. For twenty-five-hundred-years the Jews had nowhere they could go to escape being left to the will of strange people who often were not all that enamored with the Jews and their strange practices and their Hashem who was outside of their reality. Even when those under whom the Jews lived claimed they worshipped the same source, they still decided that the Jews were a threat which required special treatment. These treatments varied and included but not limited to enslavement, pogroms, the Jiyza tax, Inquisitions, expulsions, wearing special marker on their clothing (originated with Muslim rulers in the Eighth Century), purges, purifications and the Holocaust. Still, many Jews living around the world will ignore the history and placate themselves believing it cannot happen here.

They ignore the warning signs such as Ilhan Omar and her ilk in the United States, Jeremy Corbin in Britain and others in each nation as one tours our world. The time will come when Jews will not be considered acceptable to live anywhere outside Israel. The proof is evident in every vote taken against Israel in the United Nations General Assembly where at most a dozen nations actually vote against the measures. Some people will claim that there were twenty, thirty or even forty nations who abstained, that simply means they are in the process of condemning Israel once the United States joins those condemning the Jewish State. The United States joining those who condemn Israel or at the very least no longer provide Israel protection in the Security Council, then we will see who remains with Israel. Fortunately for many nations, Israel does not check their United Nations voting record when they suffer a natural or other disaster and Israel rushes anywhere on the globe to assist those who allow her to do so. We talked about this in our article “Israel is the Unique Miracle Nation” where we concentrated on a few select and gave links to further information. We were even surprised by the number and various disasters which have received Israeli aid including the United States after Hurricane Katrina and Super Storm Sandy. One is left to wonder when this age where Jews are left out, will Israel still be permitted to assist people in distressed conditions due to storms, earthquakes, eruptions or any of hundreds of other problems. Somehow, we feel assured that the developments, inventions, discoveries and scientific achievements made by Israel will continue to make the world a better place, all the world need do is allow Israel to share and she will even to a hostile world. This is just how Jews are wired, we have an insatiable need to make the world better for our being able to play a part in it. As we are commanded, we are to be a light unto the nations, no qualifiers.

The Obama Hollande Israel Conspiracy and the United Nations

 

President Obama and President Hollande have two major things in common at the junction; they are both lame ducks leaving office and both have a visceral hatred for Israel. The first jab at Israel belonged to Hollande with the first Paris so-called peace conference to resolve the Israel-Palestinian conflict back in June of last year which ended in complete and dishonorable failure. Amongst the attendees were President Hollande, US Secretary of State John Kerry, United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, French Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault, European Union High Representative for Foreign Affairs, Federica Mogherini and over twenty other Foreign Secretaries from European States and some Arab States (see picture below). Now they are going to go for round two with the same attendees and once again leaving any meeting with Israeli leadership until after the conference. There is also the claim, a valid fact, that they will also be meeting with Palestinian Authority President Abbas after the conference while nobody is to mention the December meetings in Paris with Abbas, Kerry and Ayrault drawing up the basics and demands of the Arabs to destroy or mortally wound Israel as the conclusion to the conference. With the same attendees, how are they planning on making things different; and that has a singular answer, President Obama. We are willing to bet that even if President Obama is not there for the start of the conference, if necessary he will attend at some point and remind the various attendees of the bold step of allowing Israel to be made vulnerable through his bold actions at the United Nations right before Christmas. President Obama will be there to challenge these leaders to take the bold move to really make peace by recognizing Palestine and all members nations to the conference doing so in accord with having the conference findings formalized and President Obama will take it to the Security Council and have them pass the same resolution formally recognizing Palestine and setting its borders with half of Jerusalem as their capital city all using the Green Line. Why not place a gun to every Israelis head and telling them leave or die in a hail of a million rockets raining down from the Judean hills, the heights overlooking almost all of Israel including its heavily populated central heartlands around Tel Aviv and five other major cities. Such a forced peace resolution would make Jerusalem undefendable as well as Tel Aviv, Dimona, Haifa, Ashkelon, Ashdod, Netanya and all the suburbs and industrial centers throughout Israel.

This conference is a set up for the imposition of a suicide peace upon Israel and guarantees war will start within days of Trump being sworn in as President as it is likely that Abbas promised to wait a short period, probably very short, after President Obama has left office and the Democrats and media can place all the blame on President Trump simply because he is the one in the White House when the fighting commenced and will be charged with doing too little to prevent any Israeli response. That is all the world cares about any longer, Israel and their making any efforts to survive and protect their citizens which the world sees as simply millions of Jews. Whatever one does, do not even try to tell these intelligentsia that Israel has almost as many non-Jewish citizens including Arab Christians, Arab Muslims, Druze, Bedouin, Baha’I and many others which make up a full quarter of the population. These unfortunates will be the ones mourned should they be harmed and Israel will be blamed for their deaths as well as receiving demands they stand down and not overreact to the attacks and that negotiations are being held again across the capitals of the world in emergency sessions and Israel must give them the opportunity to forge peace. The only peace they will be attempting to forge is what the Arab world demands, no more Israel and all the Jews gone. None of these noble nations for peace would allow a single Jew to enter their nation should Israel face the necessity to evacuate her population leaving just the military to try and defend the nation. The response of the world would mimic their responses from World War II when they knew about the Concentration Camps and did nothing, not even bomb the railroad tracks five miles to the east and destroy the junction to Auschwitz Buchenwald when striking the train depot just down the tracks. Then there was the Voyage of the Damned, the fated MS St. Louis and its slow trip back to Germany from Cuba and the refusal by President Franklin Delano Roosevelt to allow a single Jew to enter as a refugee of an endangered peoples as they are now taking Syrians, Afghans and other Arab refugees under President Obama. Actually, the fact is President Obama would likely insist the Palestinians delay any attack until some amount of time after he retires and can claim to have washed his hands of Israel and the Middle East and leave blame heaped upon the new President Trump with the mainstream media valued assist.

 

MS St. Louis

 

The perfidy of all involved, which remarkably pretty much leaves Israel out of the picture except for a possible photo op for French President Francois Hollande, United Nations Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, French Foreign Minister Jean-Marc Ayrault, US Secretary of State John Kerry and President Obama immediately after the conference and immediately before informing him of the agreement and concurrently with it being presented for consideration at the United Nations Security Council. This is the opportunity which these leftist have been drooling over. With President Obama showing a glimmer of light, a crack in the armor which the United States had provided Israel defending them in the Security Council but now the United States has taken a bow and retired to the sidelines allowing mischief to run wild. This just might result in the second phase, the recognition which formalizes President Obama’s initial assault with their abstaining allowing condemnation of any Israeli or Jewish presence beyond the Green Line and demanding any peace be based on the Green Line erasing UNSC Res 242 allowing for recognition to follow by any nation of Palestine Arab State using the Green Line for the new border. This would be President Obama’s legacy and one he would proudly hold as his most outstanding accomplishment while secretly knowing he had simply instigated yet another war. Why should his ability to destroy nations and start wars not continue to the last day of this Nobel Peace Prize Laureate?

 

The Paris conference had originally been aimed to be scheduled for somewhere right before Christmas when the June confab failed. This was postponed and was set for after New Year’s but with some of the Foreign Secretaries requesting a later date it was then set for March 15 thus making “Beware of the Ides of March” an enticing title. For reasons not made public, the scheduled meeting was moved back to January and set for the fifteenth once again. One can only wonder what forces in the universe converged on all the attending nations to return the conference to five days before President Obama is scheduled to be retired from the Presidency. President Obama might be putting some real mileage onto Air Force One in the final week of his Presidency with a possible pressure trip to Paris to insist that the rest of the world do their part of the power squeeze against Israel and formally recognize Palestine. He will claim how he is depending on their taking the bull by the horns and wrestling with reality as this may be the last time that the world has the correct people in the White House and in governments across Europe such that peace can be forged if they steel themselves to the task. There will be arm twisting, back slapping, and compliments galore, but if that fails then the threats get lined up, but a forced peace will be the only result President Obama will settle for, anything less he will take as a personal rebuke. The reasoning before was that they could not set any borders as UNSC 242 and the careful language would not allow such to be forced on Israel. That was the reasoning behind the latest UNSC 2334 setting the new border negotiations to be set around the Green Line making using the Green Line and blaming Israel for not acting faster and sacrificing for peace as the reason the rest of the world had to step in and set a border while such was a possibility. This has been planned in the White House as their contingency plan should the impossible happen, Hillary Clinton losing the election. Never underestimate Hillary Clinton when it comes to messing up even a given thing and managing to lose an election, even to a confirmed clown. With President Trump now looming on the horizon with a complete Cabinet filled with pro-Israel group of candidates, President Obama is making this appear as a threat to peace and not the return of the United States support for her ally. President Obama does not see Israel as an ally but as the bane behind all that is wrong in the world and the basis of all wars, especially those in the Middle East and North Africa. President Obama has painted the lack of a settled peace between Israel and the Palestinian Arabs as the most pressing and necessary emergency the nations of Europe and the Middle East to work with him in this tight schedule before the inauguration and this opportunity being eclipsed by the end of President Obama’s term on January 20 about noon. Imagine President Obama at the United Nations Security Council on January 20 at about 9:45 crying to the other members to hurry and get the Paris conference adopted by the United Nations Security Council and make it under, please, please Chapter Seven to make it a binding resolution and not merely a Chapter Six which is a nonbinding resolution which is unenforceable and depends on both sides accepting the resolution. Chapter Six Resolution would leave doubt as to whether Israel could be made to accept the Green Line meaning that almost a million Israelis would need be relocated, a monumental imposition and something near impossible to do without severe destruction to the Israeli economy and making an instant housing crisis. What everyone is ignoring is that the Palestinian Authority would reject such an offer even if it were a Chapter Seven as they are sworn to only accept all the land and the destruction of Israel, everything else is too little to end their continued demands and terror war.

 

The coming Paris peace conference is the setting of the final trap by the Obama administration should they manage to persuade the European Foreign Secretaries to accept making a resolution recognizing a Palestinian State and setting the borders recognized by the international community to be the Green Line. Their agreement is the necessary introduction which is required by President Obama as the means for requesting similar action by the United Nations Security Council and if the Paris agreement can be done with a unanimous agreement with no dissenting votes, then perhaps such pressure of universal agreement in Paris would suffice to force even that Chapter Seven resolution and provide President Obama his vitally needed legacy as thus far no such success exists and his legacy is simply lacking. This is urgent legacy building and President Obama will refuse to be denied. What is the terrible truth is that should President Obama get his legacy, the world will be that much closer to a great confrontation between two cultures, one where preserving life is the greatest gift while the other finds glory though death and honors the fallen over the living. The world will have to choose sides and it appears that at Paris, Europe might decide to side with death over prizing life and set the wheels of destiny into motion. President Obama will be getting the greatest legacy possible, the legacy of destroying much of society having it all but surrender to the purveyors of death over the guardian of life.

 

Beyond the Cusp

 

Final Thought on UNSC RES. 2334 Plus Introduction on Ambassador David Friedman

 

UNSC RES. 2334 has been written, passed unanimously and states as plainly as possible, Israel will be treated as a pariah amongst the nations of the world. The appointment of Ambassador David Friedman as the American Ambassador for Israel states clearly that under a President Donald Trump Israel will receive the royal treatment and respect due the nations whose purpose is to return the Jewish Homelands to the rightful people so that they may then proceed to be a light unto the people of this world, not the nations’ governments who no longer deserve such goodness. Israel will continue to be the only haven in a cruel world for the Jewish People and their refuge from the ravages of anti-Semitism and the ravings of the anti-Semites. Israel will be the world’s mirror and in that mirror will each nation see their real governance and the ugly or beautiful truth that is their governance’s soul. The people of the world can look to Israel to be a friend always ready in times of crisis and always trying to be the best mentor to those willing to learn. The beauty that is the heart of Israel is also the Israel seen by the eyes and soul of the nominated Ambassador for Israel, David Friedman. That alone qualifies him and that alone will be why the enemies of Israel, the ones blinded in their rage, will attempt through all means possible to block his ratification to the post that so desperately needs exactly one David Friedman.

 

Ambassador-select David Friedman would be America’s best answer to UNSC RES. 2334 and would be a great step towards rectifying this grievous wound by completing the promises made to the Jewish people as we spoke of in yesterday’s article “President Obama’s Surprise No Surprise at All” and its listing of just some of the documented promises all now shattered by simple hatred and denial of the rightfulness of the Jewish claims to all of Israel. The ratification of Ambassador David Friedman would be to accept that as the elected President, Donald Trump is allowed latitude and respect for his choices for Ambassador positions as these are the point people who will lead in his dealings and in fulfilling his campaign promises where there are some which could be identified as vital for the continued health and viability of the State of Israel. When it comes to Israel, President elect Trump has found the second best choice, but then he never interviewed me for the position eliminating that possibility.

 

American Ambassador to Israel Nominate David Friedman Donald Trump and Allies Flags

 

David Friedman has shown with his past writings that he understands who and what organizations are Israel’s worst enemies. He has identified some by name as these are organizations full of extreme leftists filled with the worst of all hatreds, self-hatred, hatred of your own lineage and the drive to cripple anything which has ties to religiosity, especially Jewish religiosity. Israel is your main target because in Israel you see all that you despise and you are willing to turn on your own people, both the religious Jews of Israel, your main hatred, and sacrificing the leftist Jews of Israel, some of which are members of allied NGOs and organizations. David Friedman sees through your empty claims to the seething underbelly and has brought that ugliness to the fore though he may have gone a step too far in his allegory equating you to possibly the only worst of what Jews have ever fallen. Perhaps he should have merely tied your hatred to the kind of Jews closer to your defilement, the Jews of the Golden Calf before Mount Sinai within the presence of Hashem. You are truly idolaters, worshipers of Baal, amongst the fallen Jews who have sought after those things pleasing to the eye and corruptive of the heart. These are the roots of the self-denial and corruption of the spirit which turns one Jew against his brother simply because his brother tries knowing failure is the more likely result, he tries to be what Hashem meant for a Jew to be. Just because the task is all but impossible is no reason to chase after the easier idolatrous gains which may enrich the pocket with earthly gold, but leaves a death of a soul behind, and it is because of that dying soul that one can hate one’s brothers and sisters. But apparently seeing through the use of the ‘but we’re Jews so we cannot stand accused of holding anti-Semitic views, so do not try and refute our anti-Semitic views,’ is considered a greater sin than being a self-loathing Jew.

 

David Friedman will make a refreshing change as Ambassador from the United States. Some will point to the present Ambassador, Daniel B. Shapiro, appointed by President Obama and beloved by J Street, Americans for Peace Now, Representative Jerrold Nadler of New York and the litany of leftist Jews. Many will note former Ambassadors and Middle East advisors such as Martin Indyk, Denis Ross, Henry Kissinger and others all of which were Jews, some even religious Jews. Most were also beloved of the cult of liberal, progressive leftism, a form of social policies which believes that the solution is government, particularly government which does exactly as they believe with no room for discussion. Others were simply crowned princes of the left, even the extreme left. What they all shared was they were devoid of even a spark of Zionism and as such had no appreciation for Israel as the Jewish State and instead saw a state which others used to denigrate them and belittle their true allegiances and as such they sought to prove their pure allegiance to the extreme left by doing all in their power to destroy what they viewed as a ball and chain holding them from greatness, Israel. They often acted as if only they could destroy Israel, then they could achieve their beloved goal of complete acceptance by their peers, or even betters, on the left fringes of politics.

 

Almost all the advisors have been followers of the Two State Solution to the point that they have almost all taken the Palestinian claims and demands as their mission to force Israel into compliance and making grand sacrifices for empty promises. These resulted in permitting the return of Yasser Arafat, forced statements of compliance with the Two State Solution, granting semi-autonomous status for the Palestinian Authority (PA) allowing it to act as a state within the state of Israel with Nablus as its political center. Gifted the entirety of the Gaza Strip to the PA who promptly lost their control with Hamas wresting it from them in a short set of battles where the PA gave mere show of fighting and actually left some that the powers in Nablus wished gone to die or be subsumed into Hamas or into hiding of a political sort. Anyway, the PA ruling elite cleaned the slate of many in the opposition leaving only Abbas to lead the PA. Virtually every Middle East advisor has been an Arabist, and even if not, also a supporter of the Palestinian movement with some appearing to favor any deal even if such meant the end of Israel for they perceived Israel as the source of all tensions, problems, wars and other violence throughout the Middle East and some even the entirety of the world. These are the believers that all problems are caused because Israel insists on ruling every government through some conspiratorial means which can never be identified or traced but they know it exists. Some actually refer to The Protocols of the Elders of Zion (Russian: Протоколы сионских мудрецов) or The Protocols of the Meetings of the Learned Elders of Zion is an anti-Semitic fabricated text purporting to describe a Jewish plan for global domination which were ordered by the Czar Alexander III or Czar Nicholas II, though some have claimed The Protocols of the Elders of Zion were actually written to spur Czar Nicholas II to modernize Russia and improve the economy using similar methods as pretended upon the Jews by the writings. Whatever their source, The Protocols of the Elders of Zion have been an inspiration for anti-Semites both before the fraud was revealed and maintain such status despite being outed as a fraud with absolutely no grounding in facts.

 

Where David Friedman may not be a true Zionist, after all he remains residing outside of Israel, he does have great understanding of the Zionist cause, sympathizes with the Zionists, understands the Torah demands which include for the Jews to inhabit all the Promised Lands, something modern Zionists have come to accept as the borders of the Negev with the Sinai Peninsula, the Blue Line border with Lebanon, the Jordan River and Dead Sea and a straight line down to Eilat at the Red Sea, the defined borders with Gaza (it was given up by treaty thus Israel has no claim to Gaza unless attacked and a state of war with Israel as the defending power with recognized grievance) and the Golan Heights and Kinneret (Sea of Galilee) with northern Jordan, eastern Lebanon and the remnant and whatever eventually becomes of Syria. David Friedman is fully cognizant of the fraud and futility of the Two State Solution and recognizes the world’s owed promises and guarantees granted to Israel including Article 80 of the United Nations Charter which gives full recognition of the Mandate system and all promises and guarantees granted within by a unanimous vote originally in the League of Nations and subsequently by the ratification of the United Nations Charter by the founding members of the United Nations. This means that the above borders are the recognized borders for the State of Israel which is defined as the Jewish homelands. Having a true friend who would have Israel’s back, rather than placing knives in said same back, would be a welcome change. It might even take a period of adjustment before the Israeli government realized there was a new friend in Washington D.C. and his liaison of Ambassador David Friedman being equally if not more so warm and supportive.

 

There is one last item which any Israeli Ambassador need know, and it is something nurtured and cultivated by leftists worldwide. There exist a number of factions within the Israeli political structure which are against Zionism and wish to change Israel from being the Jewish State with a democratic form of governance into a multicultural democratic governance where the Jews are merely a plurality and have no special acceptance or treatment by the government. These same post-Zionist, Arab separatists, Arab supremacists, and simply secular anti-religious factions all actually support UNSC RES. 2334 with Meretz Chairperson MK Zehava Galon said she was happy the US did not veto the resolution “against the policy of annexation and settlement and not against Israel.” She pointed out the vote was “the direct result of the law to legalize settlements, with Israel having lost all its shame and the world having lost its patience.” Obviously Meretz Chairperson MK Zehava Galon is not a Torah scholar and unlikely a fully Torah observant Jew if she is a practicing Jew at all. She has all the right, or should we say left, signs to qualify her as a pure secularist who is possibly ashamed of the Jewishness of many Israelis and we probably make her uncomfortable, or at least louder. These people should be given identical respect with which one will conduct business with any lifers from the State Department. Ambassador David Friedman needs to realize that the State Department is stridently anti-Israel, anti-Zionist and anti-religious Jews, especially those residing in Israel and they go ballistic about those residing in the heartlands of ancient Israel, Judea and Samaria.

 

The reality is with Ambassador David Friedman there is an actual possibility that the Arab Israeli conflict will no longer rest on the false premise of a Palestinian people separate from the rest of the Arab nations. The Arab League and almost, if not, every Arab national, religious, social, NGO and political leader will make claim that the Arab Palestinians are a separate people and an ancient people who despite having almost identical histories, speaking the same language, believing the same religion right down to their Sunni roots and split between Wahabbist and Muslim Brotherhood, genetic traits, identical DNA, relatives throughout the Middle East and North Africa, surnames denoting their belonging to the same tribes (for example Murad Al-Sudani who is the Secretary General of the National Association of Shahids’ Families for the PA as Sudani means from the Sudan, not native Palestinian), are recent immigrants from over the past century, and there being no record of any nation called Palestine and as recently as 1947 claiming they were from southern Syria or Syria itself. The entire concept of a Palestinian people was invented in 1964 in Moscow between Yasser Arafat and the founders of the PLO with assistance from the KGB Middle East Bureau and the KGB Intelligence Branch where they crafted a history using the exact same story as from Jewish history except some names were changed and others simply coopted such as Moses and Jesus instantly became Palestinians and Jesus was not crucified by the Romans but by the Zionists who operated the Roman rulers who were blinded by the Zionist crafty manipulations. They claim all of Israel and will not settle for anything short of a Jewish free nation of Palestine from the (Jordan) River to the (Mediterranean) Sea. Further, Ambassador David Friedman knows the truth about the Arabs, the nations of the world and all that we learned from recent events at the United Nations. When the time comes and the Arabs have stolen all the land with the world’s blessings and applause, the real demons of the world will be brought to the fore. The PA will make the grand gesture allowing, though it will appear as a demand, for the Jews to leave Palestine, as Jews will not be tolerated, and seek refuge amongst the nations of the world. This is where the world will have a severe case of déja-vu as nation after nation will find their quotas filled, their shores already overcrowded, their nations already having too many of those, of us and they will refuse the Jews just as was with the Jewish refugees who were refused in Cuba and their travails began during the World War II Voyage of the Damned on the ship MS St Louis. After the world has washed their hands of the Jews, then the slaughter of the remaining Jews will begin and the world will act shocked and horrified, the critical word is ‘act’ as there will be little remorse in the high seats of power, only a pat on the back for a job well done. These are the reasons that David Friedman must be ratified as the next American Ambassador to (and for) Israel. The Israeli government should settle for nobody else refusing the presentation of papers from any pretenders standing firmly in a demand for David Friedman, period.
