Palestinian Arab Aggression Will Never End

By Victor Sharpe, Family Security Matters

No, the terror will continue so long as Israel and the IDF merely
retaliates against each and every separate Muslim Arab crime against
the Jewish state’s civilian population. As one person, commenting on a
blog, stated: “Israel’s taking out a few rocket launchers is like
giving aspirin for cancer. It’s only a band aid – not a cure.”

These last few days, Israeli cities and villages have been bombarded
with dozens of Grad and other missiles from Gaza; lethal weapons, many
brought in from Libya. Last Wednesday, October 26, 2011, a Grad rocket
brought into Gaza from one of Gaddafi’s looted weapons stockpiles, was
fired into an Israeli town. This began a relentless daily barrage.

There was no Israeli response until the following Saturday when a gang
of Palestinian Islamic Jihad terrorists were spotted preparing to
launch several more Grad missiles at Israeli civilian targets. They
were killed and the Grads and their multi-barrelled launchers
destroyed before they could be fired.

Predictably, the mainstream media attacked the victim, Israel. The
BBC, CNN, and the New York Times all blamed Israel during this latest
unprovoked Palestinian attack, giving the usual pass to the
terrorists. This twisting of the truth must give great joy and comfort
to the ghost of Josef Goebbels; Nazi Germany’s Minister of Propaganda.

But if the Israeli government does not inflict far, far more intensely
painful responses to the terror bosses of Hamas, Islamic Jihad, Al
Qaida, the Muslim Brotherhood, and all the human cockroaches who
infest the Gaza Strip, then the missiles will continue to strike at
southern and central Israel with increasing lethality and horror.

The Israel Defense Force (IDF) produces charts and graphs showing the
ever increasing capabilities and destructiveness of the terrorists’
weapons caches. The deadly flow of Grad missiles entering Gaza – with
Egyptian complicity – from the looted arms stores of Muammar Gaddafi
in Libya exposes the real meaning of the Arab Spring. The so-called
rebels, who were aided by NATO, are not the democratic loving folks
who Hillary Clinton and her boss, Barack Hussein Obama, claimed them
to be.

Along with all the European heads of state who gleefully joined in the
lust for Libyan oil that masked their hollow claims of bringing
democracy to Libya, Clinton and Obama have unleashed a Muslim
Pandora’s Box, which will create in the Maghreb (North Africa) an
Islamist, Jihadist and Sharia compliant wave that will eventually
engulf Morocco and Algeria. It will extend west to Mauritania and its
loathsome tentacles will then reach south beyond the Sahel and into
equatorial Africa.

Like Hillary’s and Bill’s destruction of the Serbs, which allowed the
ancient Serbian heartland of Kosovo to become a Muslim beach-head in
the Balkans, so too Hillary’s and Obama’s misguided policies – under
the guise of an Arab Spring – have plunged the world into an endless
and perilous cycle of violence in which untold horrors will plague the
entire globe.

The Islamic tide is rising. With every foreign policy misstep by the
Obama Administration and the grotesque mishandling of her term as
Secretary of State at the State Department, Hillary Clinton and Barack
Obama are emboldening the Islamists in their aim of a creating a
worldwide Caliphate.

Nowhere has their ideological foolishness and political ineptitude
been more glaring than in their relentless obsession with what they
call Israeli “settlements.” They even go as far as to denounce the
construction of homes within Jerusalem’s city limits as “impediments
to the peace process.” Again Palestinian Arab terror, the real
impediment to peace, is cynically ignored.

Jerusalem, north, south, east and west is Israel’s capital. It was her
capital city 3,000 years ago – millennia before the United States was
created and Clinton and Obama came to power.

Judea and Samaria is the biblical, ancestral and aboriginal heartland
of the Jewish patrimony going back to the time of Joshua’s entry into
the Promised Land. Before that, Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the Jewish
patriarchs, lived in the land some 4,000 years ago and are buried in
Hebron, Judea; one of Judaism’s four holy cities.

Jews have always lived in this tiny sliver of land in whatever numbers
they could maintain and the hills and valleys of Judea and Samaria are
dotted with Judaism’s shrines, holy places, villages and ancient
cities from time immemorial. The very ground embraces its Jewish
heritage and patrimony. Ask the archaeologists. Read the Bible.

Yet here come Obama and Clinton, et al, parroting the mendacious and
deceitful lies of the Arabs, those who call themselves Palestinians,
that Judea and Samaria is Palestinian territory and that Jewish
villages are “settlements.” Even Judaism’s holy shrines, such as the
biblical Joseph’s tomb in Shechem – the city now known by its Arabic
name, Nablus – are Islamized by the Palestinian Authority and attempts
by Muslim Arabs to desecrate it and turn it into a mosque are all too
frequent.

Clinton and Obama employ today, as so much of the world sadly does,
the Jordanian Arab name of “West Bank” for the territory instead of
biblical Jewish Judea and Samaria. This is the territory the Arabs
want to take as a Palestinian state – a first stage before taking what
is left of Israel. But it must be repeated again and again that there
has never in all of recorded history existed a sovereign, independent
nation called Palestine; and certainly not an Arab one.

This “West Bank” was seized by the British officered Jordanian Arab
Legion when it invaded and occupied the territory in the 1948 Arab-
Israel War. The Jordanians drove out the Jewish population, including
from the Old City in Jerusalem, and the subsequent illegal Jordanian
occupation was recognized only by Britain and Pakistan.

Yet the thousands of years that the land was known as Judea and
Samaria are forgotten and sublimated to the name, “West Bank,” which
refers to the term given to the mere 19 years of Arab occupation that
lasted from 1948 to June, 1967. How strange!

So many times have such slanders and falsehoods about this Jewish
heartland been spewed by Arabs and their supporters that now the world
cannot comprehend the immoral, unspiritual and unhistorical
fabrication that they have perpetrated.

That the morally bankrupt United Nations vomits such lies endlessly is
one thing, but that Hillary Clinton and United States President,
Barack Obama, repeat it and hurl it at Israel is shameful. But we know
by now that neither of them are true friends of the Jewish state.
Anything but.

So, in the face of the villainous campaign to delegitimize and
demonize the embattled Jewish state by the Arab League, the Muslim
world, the Left and the execrable international and national media –
with few honorable exceptions – Israel must realize that it is time to
weather the storm by responding both to Hamas and terrorist crimes and
aggression with a terminally painful and crushing rejoinder.

It must also decide that, if needs be, it is better to be hung for a
wolf than a sheep. After all, whatever restraint Israel shows in the
face of Muslim Arab terrorism and barbarism, she will still be
vilified, slandered and pilloried by a hostile and unsympathetic
world. And whatever concessions she makes, one truism will always
remain: Palestinian Arab aggression will never end.
