National terrorism vs terrorist

The whole Israel thing is taking on a totally perverse angle. The Israelis who use international law as the excuse for invading Lebanon, (without a declaration of war) and bombing innocent civilians who have nothing to do with Hezbollah, and who are mostly arabs, the Israelis being largely recently imported European Jews mostly from the East Bloc...is perverse.

What Hezbollah did, is no different that the first European Jews who invaded Israel and bombed the British, American and Canadian forces that occupied the region after the first world war. The big difference is the arabs who comprise Hezbollah are indeed fighting for their homeland.

Israeli Jews who state it is their God Given right to reclaim the land that God gave them, is preposterous as many of the Israeli Jews have not genetic connection to the original jews, they are more European than ethnically jews.

It would be like Canadian Catholics invading Italy and stating it is their God Given right to wage war to reclaim historic Catholic lands. It is just not politically correct, nor morally, nor even religiously correct.

Israel and the European Jews who occupy it are this century's Holy Crusaders.

But, for a nation to practice terror and bomb innocent citizens is immoral, the excuse Israel uses to routinely invade Palestinian lands to fight Hammas is that it is fighting terror.

The things that Israel says it is fighting it does itself. It commits acts of terror and breaks international human rights by routinely assasinating and murdering arabs it deems as enemies. This is no different than the Germans murdering jews during world war 2, no different. Complete with Israeli Defense Forces shooting unarmed children in the streets. Or detaining and excuting arabs without trial. Seizing their assets, taking their houses and lands. The same things that the Germans did to Jews, the Israeli are doing to the Arabs.

The big difference here is this is the arabs traditional homeland. The Israeli on the whole are not even first generation Israeli borne, if even second generation. You have the creation of an Apartheid White Supremacist State in the middle east.

Why can't people recognize this? Why is no one crying out about the atrocities committed against arabs, the theft of arab lands, the bombing of arab owned businesses and homes in Lebanon. The historic theft of arab lands and homes and businesses by Israel.

selective history

Watching CNN's Anderson 360 program makes one wonder just how dangerous the path the world is headed in. When one group of people blow themselves up to create or push for their own country, we give them billions of dollars in aid and the latest military technology. When the people that these people force out, do the same thing, we send our snipers to help assasinate them without trial. This is called Israel and the arabs. We favour the jews in their selective version of terrorism. Yet when Arabs fight back to get their land, we call it terrorism, label them as muslim terrorist.

The issue with Hezballah, or what ever version of spelling you endorse, yet when the Lebanese Arabs fight back to win their lands, we call them terrorist. We look at history, we see the marines blown up in Lebanon and we declare war on Hezballah. It was not even some sixty or less years when the jews blew up a building consisting of allies, americans, british, canadians, and the west did not declare a war of terror on the jews.

Just what gives?

When the muslims use military technology, we call it terror. When the Israelis use military technology we call it the war on terror, yet both are practicing outright acts of war crimes. The Hezballah for fighting back without an outright declaration de facto treaty of war and killing on many occasion innocent civilians who have nothing to do with Israel or Israeli sovereignty or history, and who just want a place to live. Israel for invading another sovereign country and killing innocent civilians of another country or foreign nationals, like the family of Canadians which was murdered by an Israeli airforce plane.

It is time to call it the way it is. CNN, CBC, the world's media, should use the terminology used by the UN security council, invasion, murder of innocent civilians, breaching international law, breaching the Geneva Convention.

How can Israel be supported, it practices outright acts of murder. It selectively without trial murder those citizens that it perceives as threats to the nation. Yet it practices that which it denounced. When Hitler killed Jews to protect German Socialism, the world cried out. Because it was assasination without trial, murder by the state. Some sixty years later the Jews of Israel are murdering Arabs in the same fashion. They are forcing them into concentration camps, throwing them out of the country, blowing up their places of refuge, using the same terminology of the third reich in describing the arabs.

Yet if the jews had not stolen the land from the arabs, all of this would not be an issue. The arabs in fighting back have the weight of international law behind them. They are expatriate nationals fighting to secure their homeland back. The jews who occupy arab lands are no more jewish than the arabs they displace. They are europeans, complete with the history anglo saxon perception of apartheid, of white superiority.

It is time to denounce Israel for what it has become. A rogue state practicing racist actions, another South Africa. That is all it is. An illegal nation from border to border to border.

The dangers are all there, you have the worlds' military amassed near Lebanon and on their way to protect fleeing foreign nationals from the region. You have an Israeli army that has invaded Lebanon, blowing up innocent civilians, destroying the Lebanese infrastructure.

You have the Lebanese Army with Syrian and Iranian observer advisors ready to fight back. You have a fragile Arab monarchy in Saudi Arabia which totters on the verge of fighting to win back the arab league. All it take is to anger Egypt and Libya and the money required to purchase military technology that would break Israel's assembled might, will have the capacity to transfer to a large scale conflict. A potential 3rd world war.

It is time to declare a unified front of humanity, fight what is unjust, recognize the right of another religion to practice its views. Stop calling the arabs terrorist. Otherwise they will fight back to make history right.

It is time to put the Europeans who are masquararding as Israelis, time to ask them not to infringe on sovereign arab lands. Time to recognize the right of arabs to join the state of Israel as equal citizens, time to take away the apartheid of the middle east.

It is a violation of sovereign states.

Larry King was off base when he asked if the Lebanese Army was Shiites. The USA has blamed the Shiites for everything under the sun. If the Saudi royalty decides to say enough is enough, the foundation that has created the USA will potentially crumble, the Saudi have already punished the west already, under the policy of globalization. All it takes is for the arabs to withdraw all their funding for the USA and the USA will become what it is almost now, a poor excuse for a modest economy.

This places China potentially as the king maker in the situation of a global conflict.

Price to Pay?

Lebanon's Prime Minister asked what price should innocent Lebanese pay to support one country that has chosen to bomb innocent civilians. What message is Israel attempting to send, other than it is okay to invade another Arab country using military weapons paid for by the USA and Canada.
The murder being committed by Israel soldiers and pilots, because that is what it is, an illegal act of war crime on innocent arabs, should not be accepted.

What price are you paying as the Canadian or American tax payer? Are you working long hard hours at minimum wage, or whatever wage, only to see your tax dollars being used to murder innocent arabs? Whether in Iraq, in Afghanistan and now Lebanon, the west's war on arabs has reached a new height.

At some point the arabs will retaliate and the war on terror will seem miniscule in dimension. It is time to stop this murder. Murder begets murder. This is not justice. This is not Israel attacking Hezballah.

It is a bunch of racist bigots in Israel who are only too happy to murder arabs. It is time to stand up to racism whereever it arises. If you are a tax payer, it is time to stop funding the racist Israelis.

Israeli Hypocrites

The argument that Israel has Palestinians in jail for conducting the same type of nationalist acts that Israel's founders conducted, acts of terror against Great Britian which had a colony in Israel is hypocrisy.

The Arabs who are fighting to get their land back are conducting the same type of bombings, attacks that jews conducted against the English. Now Israel which protects itself under International Law, is breaking International Law by arresting arabs without trial and basically sentencing them to life in prison without trial.

The same civility that Israel pretends to defend itself with, it does not extend to Arabs.

The indiscriminate bombing and invasion of Lebanon without a declaration of war, breaches international law. The murder of Canadian Lebanese Arabs by Israel bombs is a shocking issue.

Canadians and Americans who pay taxes should demand that their national governments stop giving billions of dollars to Israel which are used in kind to murder Canadian and American citizens in Lebanon. It is time to stop the illegal acts of Israel, time to stop giving away our tax dollars to Israel if it continues to breach international law and bomb innocent citizens.

Israel should declare war on Lebanon formally, invade and root out the Hezballah perhaps, but it should not conduct indiscriminate bombing and demolition of Lebanon's civilan infrastructure. The tax dollars that Americans, Canadians pay to help develop Lebanon and Beirut are being wasted, wasted by tax dollars which pay for the bombs used by Israel paid for you the Canadian and American tax payer.

There is the overall issue of the theft of Arab owned lands by jews to create northern Israel, and the Gaza. It is time to resolve this issue as well. When Israel says it wants to resolve the terror of Hezballah, the issue of terror conducted against Arabs which still go on today with Mossad agents murdering innocent Arabs who denounce the theft of Arab lands should be resolved.

It is indeed time for Canada and the United States to stop funding Israel if it will not give civil rights and honor and pay for the damage done to Arab owned lands. This injustice must be resolved. Until that is done Canada and the United States should stop giving military and financial funding which is used to bomb innocent arabs.

Demanding justice also means that justice should also be applied. Israel cannot demand the justice of arabs, when itself has done injustice to arabs and has not resolved that issue. When Israel arrests those Israeli soldiers who have murdered arabs, when Mossad is made to account for decades of murdering innocent arabs, then perhaps justice can be done.

war crimes?

Israel attacking innocent Lebanese citizens and foreigners amounts to war crimes. While the state of Israel places suspected Hezbollah members as wanted people, with the USA and Canada doing the same, isn't it odd that we are not placing the Israeli soldiers who are also committing terrorist like acts such as bombing innocent citizens on a wanted list either?

Historic injustices

Israel cannot do anything right no matter what it does in anybody's eyes. The issue of historic injustice is forgotten. However, the murder of innocent Canadians in Lebanon who have nothing to do with the historic injustice between jews and arabs is shocking. Israel bombing innocent citizens regardless of who they are or where they are, is shocking.

It only opens the world's eyes to the pillaging of Arab lands to create the state of Israel. What Israel has won through war it can also see it diminish through war-like actions. The world is poised to go on the brink of world war on biblical proportions.

This time, there is no sober leaders in the USA, Canada or the Russian Federations. You have leaders who are drunk on power, abusing civil rights, conducting military operations that are on the grey side, which breach international law. The rules of war, require an outright treaty of war. Canada, the USA and Great Britain have not issued a treaty of war, yet they are supporting Israel in bombing innocent civilians.

While the USA complains that Syria and Iran are supplying arms, the USA is not exactly complicit in supplying arms, aircraft, that are being used to breach and are breaking international law.

Canada should denounce not only Israel for the murder of innocent Lebanese Canadians, but also it should denounce the kidnapping of Israeli solders.

At some point Israel should return lands that are the rightfully lawful property of arabs, and to accept those arab land owners as Israeli citizens. This defacto state of war, only helps to open the door to outright war on a global scale.

With nations not practicing the Geneva Convention in their war-like actions, it eerily echoes of situations that existed oddly enough in the holy lands and arab countries, and the perception that arab people do not have the same rights under international law nor are considered on the same footing.

It is time to accept our Arab brothers as full fledged citizens, honor the international treaties, honor the international laws that help to keep Israel as a state, it is time to call on Israel to come into the world fold and honor civil rights for Arabs.
