Palestinians man…
Israeli occupation forces arrested this man following clashes after Israeli settlers stormed the yards of AlAqsa mosque.
Keeps smiling brother, your smile kills the…your smile makes them feel small.
Lies! This image is no where near Al Aqsa mosque. Its on a street, in Jerusalem reported June 2012. Why not write the truth instead of propaganda?
Tyrannies oppose “country-specific” resolutions — and then adopt 21 on Israel
In an astonishing display of hypocrisy, numerous U.N. country delegates gave impassioned speeches last Tuesday objecting to resolutions criticizing the murderous regimes of Iran, North Korea and Syria, saying they rejected the very notion of singling out countries; and then they proceeded, mere moments later, to adopt a resolution — which many of them also co-sponsored — singling out democratic Israel.
According to a UN Watch report, featured on Canadian TV and now going viral on Facebook, there will be a total of 21 one-sided resolutions targeting the Jewish state in this session of the U.N. General Assembly — and only 4 on the rest of the world combined.
Here were the objections supposedly made in the name of high principle, from the U.N.’s Nov. 27 debate:
Yet right after they opposed action on Iran, Syria, and North Korea, all of their principled objections to “country-specific” measures, “politicization,” and “selectivity” quickly went out the door.
Instead, each of the countries listed above went on to vote and adopt a U.N. resolution slamming Israel for alleged actions that “severely impede the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination.”
Suddenly, Belarus and Venezuela declined to ask the U.N. to engage in any “dialogue” with the country concerned.
Needless to say, there will be no U.N. resolutions this session supporting the Jewish right to self-determination, nor that of the Kurds, Tibetans, Basques or Baluchis.
Those who truly care for the noble principles of the U.N. Charter — namely, its guarantee of equal treatment to all nations large and small — should be decrying this perversion of justice.
That is exactly what the government of Canada’s Prime Minister Stephen Harper has done, time and again, while no foreign minister in the world has been more outspoken this year against U.N. wrongdoing than Canada’s John Baird. When it comes to moral clarity at the U.N., follow the North Star.
Tragically at the U.N., however, too many delegates follow the herd, the largest vote-trading blocs, and the largest oil-producers, no matter how many tyrants and mass murderers among them. They choose to go along to get along.
Israel wants piece, all the pieces of Palestine.

Just found out some guy from my parents village in Palestine got shot by the IDF because he accidentally crashed into the IDF jeep.
Well done Israel, you’ve just left 8 children fatherless.
eretzyisrael: If this is referring to the most recent indecent, then this is a perfect example of how ‘Palestinians’ like to twist events to make it appear as though they are the innocent ones.
First the IDF vehicle was rammed, and then the Arab attacked the Shin Bet Agents with an axe. [Source].
So no, it wasn’t “just some guy who accidentally crashed”.
yafilasteen: So besides your source being inherently Zionist by claiming the man as “terrorist” and calls the land “Samaria”, you can even tell the story is completely made up.
The source says: “The terrorist then emerged from hisvehicle and attacked two of the agents with an axe, wounding one of them moderately.”
Then it says: “…a Palestinian approched them with an axe and tried to attack the soldiers. The soldiers shot him dead,”
Oh Eretzyisrael and your horrible attempts at false propaganda.
Those poor 8 fatherless children…
eretzyisrael: HaAretz. ABC News. Y!News. The Times of India. WDRB. Global News. Ma’an News. [links at source]
Of course, those news reports report the truth, which happens to be contrary to your personal opinion, so let’s just brush them off as all controlled by Zionists!
The truth is that the Palestinian man was coming towards the IDF with candy floss and flowers wishing to dance the macarena.
Those 8 children will now receive monthly welfare compensation from the PA for their father being a martyr. He [his family] could have gotten a better deal if he survived and went to prison [.pdf]
Well done Palestinians, you’ve left those children are fatherless because of a political/religious philosophy [Islam] that puts more value and honor on death than on life.
Any questions?

The truth about E-1
http://elderofziyon.blogspot.ca/2012/12/the-truth-about-e-1.html
http://jcpa.org/article/protecting-the-contiguity-of-israel-the-e-1-area-and-the-link-between-jerusalem-and-maale-adumim/
Elder’s conclusion:
The real issue is not “Palestinian contiguity” - any glance at a map shows that to be a lie, something reporters cannot be bothered to do - but Jerusalem. Palestinian Arabs, against all historical evidence, say that Jerusalem is “Palestinian” and an essential part of their hoped-for state. There is actually no reason a Palestinian Arab state must include parts of Jerusalem - right now, the PA is headquartered in Ramallah and functioning normally.
The reason they want Jerusalem is not because of historic or legal ties. It is because they know that Jerusalem is the heart of the Jewish people and they want to wrench that away. Once they weaken Israel’s hold on the holy city they weaken Israel’s very existence. All the other arguments are simply obfuscations around that simple fact.
Israelis know this, and so do Palestinian Arabs. The world media has yet not figured out this essential fact though, and parrot the lie that a Palestinian Arab state depends on Jerusalem. It doesn’t, any more than Jordan depended on Jerusalem between 1948 and 1967.

International condemnation for approving plans to create 3,000 illegal homes on stolen Palestinian land in the E1 area will not force Israel to backtrack. An official in Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s office said:
Israel will continue to stand by its vital interests, even in the face…
True in 2009 & today: ”Hamas is Expert at Driving Media Agenda,” British Commander Tells U.N. Debate
In Egypt, Anne Frank’s diaries are considered forgeries and Hitler was a great man who tried to deal with the Jews.
Anti-zionists say that Israel is the aggressor. Israel has to be aggressive because Hamas - a branch of the Muslim Brotherhood now ruling Egypt - Hezbollah, Iran etc. do not want peace with Israel.
They want to kill the Jews.
Not Israelis. Not Zionists.
Jews.
All over the world.
(via Elder of Ziyon: Dead child cradled by Egypt’s PM was killed by Hamas!)
There is a lot of evidence for this. Read the New York Times’ account of his death:
The Abu Wardah family woke up on Friday morning to word that a hudna — Arabic for cease-fire — had been declared during the three-hour visit of the Egyptian prime minister to this embattled territory. So, after two days of huddling indoors to avoid intensifying Israeli air assaults, Abed Abu Wardah, the patriarch, went to the market to buy fruits and vegetables. His 22-year-old son, Aiman, took an empty blue canister to be refilled with cooking gas. The younger children of their neighborhood, Annazla, in this town north of Gaza City went out to the dirt alley to kick a soccer ball.
But around 9:45 a.m., family members and neighbors said, an explosion struck a doorway near the Abu Wardah home, killing Aiman Abu Wardah as he returned from his errand, as well as Mahmoud Sadallah, 4, who lived next door and had refused his older cousin’s pleas to stay indoors.
It is unclear who was responsible for the strike on Annazla: the damage was nowhere near severe enough to have come from an Israeli F-16, raising the possibility that an errant missile fired by Palestinian militants was responsible for the deaths. What seems clear is that expectations for a pause in the fighting, for at least one family, were tragically misplaced.
The IDF did not launch any airstrikes in Gaza while Egyptian PM Kandil was in Gaza. AP adds:
Mahmoud Sadallah, the 4-year-old Gaza boy whose death moved Egypt’s prime minister to tears, was from the town of Jebaliya, close to Gaza City.
The boy died Friday in hotly disputed circumstances. The boy’s aunt, Hanan Sadallah, and his grief-stricken father Iyad — weak from crying and leaning on others to walk — said Mahmoud was killed in an Israeli airstrike. Hamas security officials also made that claim.
Israel vehemently denied involvement, saying it had not carried out any attacks in the area at the time.
Mahmoud’s family said the boy was in an alley close to his home when he was killed, along with a man of about 20, but no one appeared to have witnessed the strike. The area showed signs that a projectile might have exploded there, with shrapnel marks in the walls of surrounding homes and a shattered kitchen window. But neighbors said local security officials quickly took what remained of the projectile, making it impossible to verify who fired it.
If it was an Israeli missile, you can be sure that it would have been shown to the media! Furthermore,PCHR, which is keeping track of everyone killed in Gaza (and which admits that most of the dead have been “militants,”) did not list Mahmoud Sadalha or Aiman Aby Wardah in their list of victims of Israeli airstrikes, although they even include one person who died of a heart attack.
Put this together with the fact that Hamas and other terror groups were firing rockets throughout Friday morning while the IDF did not, plus the fact that over 100 rockets have fallen short in Gaza (both usingpast performance and IDF statistics as proof), and the fact that the shrapnel in the video matches almost exactly the shrapnel damage we have seen from rocket fire into Israel, and it is very clear: this child was killed by Gaza rocket fire, not by Israel.
And every media outlet that irresponsibly assumed that Israel killed him must correct their slander, and also make sure that they don’t automatically blame Israel for civilian deaths in the future.
Write to CNN, the Mirror and every other media outlet that published this lie. This war needs all of us to get involved. Every newspaper is on Twitter, and they read their tweets.
The truth is here:

(via International Solidarity Movement’s ‘Fauxtographic’ record of Rachel Corrie’s death)
A little digging on the internet turned up a blog post by “Carlos” at “Peace with Realism” from 2003: “The Death of Rachel Corrie” which investigated the photograph, and found yet another. Both were published by ISM, and are easily found by googling “Rachel Corrie” and looking for images.
Well, Electronic Intifada ran with the pictures supplied to it by ISM and rather gave the game way. Under the left hand picture, it noted that the picture was taken “between 3:00-4:00PM”:
Picture taken between 3:00-4:00PM on 16 March 2003, Rafah, Occupied Gaza. A clearly marked Rachel Corrie, holding a megaphone, confronts the driver of one of two Israeli bulldozers in the area that were attempting to demolish a Palestinian homes. She was confronting the bulldozer in order to disrupt its work, and prevent it from threatening any homes. Photo by Joseph Smith.
But under the right hand picture, the time of 4:45 PM was given for the accident – the picture was obviously taken seconds after the accident:
Picture taken at 4:45PM on 16 March 2003, Rafah, Occupied Gaza. Other peace activists tend to Rachel after she was fatally injured by the driver of the Israeli bulldozer (in background).
Noting the discrepancy, “Carlos” then took a deeper look at the pictures (my emphasis):
These pictures have been shown to be a hoax. The “before” picture shows Rachel standing in front of the bulldozer with a megaphone, some distance away and foreshortened by perspective, making her appear to be in clear sight of the bulldozer. The presentation also makes it appear that this took place immediately before the incident. However, the photographer himself later admitted that no one with a camera had been present at the site just before Rachel’s accident, that the picture with the megaphone had actually been taken hours earlier, and that at the time of the accident Rachel was not in sight of the driver. An examination of the pictures themselves, noting, for example, the difference in the color of the sky, shows they could not have been taken close to the same point in time. In addition, the bulldozers shown in these supposed “before” and “after” pictures are not the same.
Indeed both CNN, which ran the two pictures, and the New York Times, which ran the first one, published the following corrections:
Caption clarification: Photos by an International Solidarity Movement eyewitness show Rachel Corrie protesting earlier, and then later, after she was hit by an Israeli bulldozer in Gaza on Sunday.
The New York Times, March 26, 2003:
A picture caption on March 17 with an article about an American protester who was crushed by an Israeli Army bulldozer in Gaza referred incorrectly to the bulldozer shown. It was one that the protester, Rachel Corrie, had earlier tried to stop from destroying a Palestinian home. It was not the one that killed her.
Nevertheless pro-Palestinian web sites, including the International Solidarity Movement’s own web site, continue to present the two pictures with incorrect and misleading labels.
Finally, according to “Carlos”, “A later report from ISM Media Coordinator Michael Shaik in Beit Sahour offered more details about the event”. In fact, Shaik made an admission that makes it clear why the bulldozer driver could not have seen Corrie, and why the first photograph has no direct connection to the accident that killed her:
Rachel was sitting in the path of the bulldozer as it advanced towards her.
Only when she realized she could not be seen, did she try to escape:
When the bulldozer refused to stop or turn aside she climbed up onto the mound of dirt and rubble being gathered in front of it wearing a fluorescent jacket to look directly at the driver who kept on advancing. The bulldozer continued to advance so that she was pulled under the pile of dirt and rubble.
To claim that the “bulldozer refused to stop or turn aside” is a gross distortion – how could he have seen someone sitting on the ground behind a growing pile of dirt and the huge blade of his bulldozer? Then when she realized her situation, instead of moving back or sideways, perhaps in a panic she advanced towards the moving bulldozer, something no sensible person would do, and was crushed under the dirt and rubble.

Important point: “And the Philadelphi Corridor that Israel was clearing was, under international law, legally controlled by Israel. As Wikipedia notes:
Under the provisions of the Israeli-Egyptian peace treaty of 1979, the buffer zone was controlled and patrolled by Israeli forces. After the 1995 Oslo Accords, Israel was allowed to retain the security corridor along the border.
And this classic 2005 piece on The Forgotten Rachels is important to recall as well.
