America’s shame
Why does Israel have a right to exist, but Palestine doesn’t?
This is the question of our time.
For 60 years Israelis have been stealing Palestine from Palestinians. There are maps available on the Internet and in Israeli publications showing the shrinkage over time of what was once Palestine into what Palestine is today — a small number of unconnected ghettos or bantustans.
Palestine
More.. became “the occupied territory” from which Palestinians were ejected and Israeli settlements built for “settlers.” Jordan, Syria and Lebanon are full of refugee camps in which Palestinians driven off their lands by Israeli force have been living for decades.
Driving people off their land is strictly illegal under international law, but Israel has been getting away with it for decades.
Gaza is a concentration camp of 1.5 million Palestinians who were driven from their homes and villages and collected in the Gaza Ghetto.
The United Nations Relief and Works Agency was created 60 years ago in 1949 to administer refugee camps for Palestinians driven from their lands by Israel. As of 2002, the registered Palestinian refugee population was 3.9 million.
Caterpillar Tractor makes a special bulldozer for Israel that is designed to knock down Palestinian homes and to uproot their orchards. In 2003, an American protester, Rachel Corrie, stood in front of one of these Caterpillars and was run over and crushed.
Nothing happened. The Israelis can kill whomever they want whenever they want.
They have been doing so for 60 years, and they show no sign of stopping.
Currently, they are murdering women and children in the ghetto that they have created for Palestinians in Gaza. The entire world knows this. The Red Cross protests it. But the Israelis brazenly claim that they are killing “Hamas terrorists who are a threat to Israel’s existence.”
The American media knows that this is a lie, but does not say so.
Israel has been able to slowly exterminate a people for 60 years without provoking sufficient outrage to stop it.
The United States, “Christian America,” has been Israel’s greatest enabler in its long-term murder of the Palestinian people. Millions of “evangelical Christians” endorse Israel’s ethnic cleansing of Palestine.
The rest of the world condemns the Israeli military attack on the Gaza Ghetto. Last week, the United Nations Security Council passed a resolution requiring a ceasefire and the withdrawal of the Israeli SS from Gaza.
The United States abstained.
While the rest of the world condemns Israel’s inhumanity, the US Congress — I should say the US Knesset — rushed to endorse the Israeli slaughter of the Palestinians in Gaza.
The US Senate endorsed Israel’s massacre of Palestinians with a unanimous vote.
The US House of Representatives voted 430-5 to endorse Israel’s massacre of Palestinians.
The resolutions endorsed by 100 percent of the US Senate and 99 percent of the House were written by AIPAC, as were the speeches praising Israel for its inhumanity.
The US Congress was proud to show that it is Israel’s puppet even when it comes to murdering women and children.
The President of the United States was proud to block effective action by the UN Security Council by ordering the secretary of state to abstain.
Be a Proud American. Swagger and strut. Pretend that you are not besmirched by the shame that your government has heaped upon you. Take refuge in your ignorance, fostered by 60 years of Israeli lies, that the murder of Palestinians and the theft of their lands is “Israel’s right of self-defense.”

Who said Palestine has no right to exist? Everyone but Hamas has signed on to the "two state" process.

Yes, and what you find when you look at those maps is that Israel was tiny in 1947.
The Arabs rejected the U.N.'s proposal for creating separate Jewish and Palestinian States, resulting in war....which the Jews won...and Israel grew.
The Arab States attacked Israel in 1967...and lost spectacularly, resulting in Israel growing again. The Eqyptians were lucky to get the Sinai Peninsula back after 12 years.
If you look at the timeline, it is Arab blunders that have cause Israel to grow dramatically...not settlement creep.
I'm not really pro-israel. I don't car about them any more than any other country....but this is a crock of shit.

the PLO was all about a two state solution,
but what did israel do about it?
they created hamas.
then we forced a free election in the area and what happened?
hamas was elected by the people.
but since israel didnt want that to happen they have to kill them, right?

Exactly. I believe Israel would be content to go about their business and live with a Palestinian state if they could just be left alone.

if it is not about settlement, what would you call the arab rejection of the UN propsal and subsequent war and israeli territorial expansions?

Israel "created" Hamas? roflmao....
As I said (and you've yet to refute) everyone is signed on to the two state solution except Hamas.

Exactly. The problem is NOT that Hamas won an election, it's that Hamas has as it's aim pushing Israel into the sea.

no kidding, many in the USA supported the Pals over Israel until the late 60's and the 70's. That's when the arab nations attacked Israel and the Pals decided to start hijacking airplanes, killing athletes at the Olympics and Pal terrorism.
Even today most americans want the Pals to have a state, we just gave up on them due to their terrorist tactics and their continued denial of Israels right to exist.
The problem with the Pals is entirely of their own making...
