Israel Must Exert its Power
by Victor Sharpe
The world and the national and international mainstream media are eerily silent when Israel and her civilian population are attacked by missiles from Gaza or Lebanon and Israeli civilians are slaughtered by Palestinian terrorists as recently occurred.
But if Israel retaliates, oh my, the same immoral world and mass media scream and condemn her for daring to resist and a predictable anti-Israel censure is issued from that ultimate temple of hypocrisy: the United Nations. Israel is like the rape victim who never receives justice from a series of biased judges.
But it is now even worse for the embattled Jewish state. The most hostile anti-Israel President, Barack Hussein Obama, and a State Department, which is perennially anti-Israel to its core, will never give Israel the green light to finally finish the job by destroying once and for all the murderous terrorists of the Arab and Muslim world.
Does the world care about the tormented Israeli town of Sderot, which is battered relentlessly by missiles from the pitiless Hamas occupied and terrorist infested Gaza Strip? In the little town of Sderot, her suffering people live a mere three kilometers from the Gaza Strip. They have only a 15 second warning from the next incoming barrage of deadly missiles deliberately fired at them by the Arabs who call themselves Palestinians...
Ashdod and Beersheba - all major southern Israeli cities came under a heavy rocket offensive from Gaza lasting from Thursday until Sunday night. Jews have died, babies and toddlers have been wounded, a synagogue and a school was hit by a Grad missile. Towns and villages have been struck and civilians terrorized.
Did you hear that on the TV news or read it in the New York Times or Washington Post? If you did it was reported in the fashion that afflicts all news about Israeli suffering: The sin of moral equivalence. In other words, it is a perverse editorial mechanism, which presents the Israeli victim as equal to the Arab victimizer...
When we see how the mainstream media and the international corridors of power are silent in the face of the crimes of the Palestinian terror machine we should hearken to the words from the ancient Jewish Ethics of the Fathers: "He who is kind to the cruel ends by being cruel to the kind."
Al Qaida Members in Libyan Rebel Command
The Obama administration finally acknowledged Wednesday, Aug. 31 that al Qaida elements had been fighting in Libyan rebel ranks in last week's capture of Tripoli. This confronts the US administration with the sole choice of accepting this fait accompli, especially after American reporters discovered in Muammar Qaddafi's abandoned intelligence headquarters files attesting to the former Libyan ruler's campaign against Al Qaida's Libyan recruits and outside inf iltrators. (Must Israel follow directives of an incompetent American administration and its security apparatus, which helped create al Qaida and is unable to destroy it?)
Gaza is Getting Libyan Arms
Palestinians in Gaza have acquired anti-aircraft and anti-tank rockets from Libya during its six-month civil war. Israeli officials have detected an inflow of SA-7 anti-aircraft missiles and rocket-propelled grenades (RPGs), describing an overland supply route that opened up between eastern Libya since it fell to the rebels.
Self-Hating Journalist Fired
The Jerusalem Post has fired radical leftist longtime columnist Larry Derfner after he published a commentary piece in which he justified Arab terrorism against Israelis and particularly the recent multiple terror attacks near Eilat.
Iran Dispatches Fleet to Red Sea
Israel sent two more warships to the Red Sea border with Egypt as a military reinforcement, following warnings that militants are planning another attack on southern Israel from Sinai. This comes as Iran's Press TV reports that Tehran has decided to send the 15th fleet to the Red Sea. Last week, Israel 's military ordered more troops to the border area following i ntelligence reports of an impending attack, days after militants crossed into Israel through the Egyptian border and killed eight Israelis.
New Egypt Troop in Sinai a Gamble for Israel
Israel hopes Egypt's interim government will regain control of the Sinai, which has become lawless. But the troop presence carries risk for Israel as its ties with Egypt look more fragile. The agreement to bar Egyptian soldiers from the Sinai border was a linchpin of the landmark 1979 Egyptian-Israel peace treaty. Allowing the heaviest Egyptian military presence along the border with Sinai since the 1967 Middle East War carries significant risk for Israel .
