Israeli policeman stated on facebook desire to 'slay arabs'

ok none of this should really be news, but to nutshell it-
*The way that the british mandate and zionist militias forced the nakba creating the largest displacement of Palestinians in their history-
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nakba_Day

*the way that America cynically sought to exploit Israel as a satellite during the cold war (to prevent it becoming a soviet ally) thus it became an outpost of American style capitalism.

*the associated disproportionate amount of American aid Israel recieves (40%) that goes to bankroll their military campaign to further undermine arab controlled territory.

*The way in which since the nakba, Israel has been preventing Palestinian migrants from re-entering Palestinian territory.

So to make a long story short this pointless little story about ONE (1) Israeli cop with an ax to grind is yet another vent hole for your hatred of Israel and, of course. the United States.
I rest my case.

No more pointless than every other diatribe posted on this forum about palestinian or hamas anti Israel sentiment, my star spangled detractor.

If you believe these things then how can you even justify Israel as a country?

How they divided the land screwed both sides, and when given the opportunity for statehood, Israel complied, the Arab League didn't. Instead they told Arabs to leave their homes, and that Jews would be killed. Literally, they were gonna defeat Israel, drive them into the ocean. Had the Arab league taken a different approach, diplomatic...there would be no Nakba.....

Like I said, if you believe all this stuff, there is no talk about two states, or Israel leaving occupied land etc etc....

at that particular juncture, the arabs were in no position to drive anyone into the ocean. They never have been. They were outmanned and outgunned, and the Israelis essentially had British backing.

If you beleive the contrary, you are kidding yourself.

What does this have to do with the "neo-liberal mandate" and Western capitalism?


I'm pretty sure the prospect of Israel becoming a Soviet ally was pretty much zero due to UN General Assembly Resolution 3379, which the USSR voted in favour of.

Furthermore, Britain laid the foundations for Israel with the Balfour Declaration and the US was the first country to de facto recognize Israel.

All in all, choosing sides in the cold war was a no-brainer for Israel in my opinion.


Last time I checked, Israel receives approximately 6 percent of US foreign aid, about twice the amount given by the US to Pakistan and Egypt, respectively.

Oh, and:

That "Israeli Policeman" on face book might have been a ringer. You do not know for sure who that person is.

Good point.

If that was the case, why did Israel stop....why not take even more land. Why give land back?

Which is known as antisemitism in this particular case.

It's the same thing as holding up the Facebook messages of a few bigoted English police officers and trying to make out they represent English people's views as a whole. It's racist.

Also, Electronic Intifada is not to be trusted. It's a viciously anti-Israel website that twists and misrepresents stories before. We've been here with the lie of the Palestinian-only buses, remember, where the OP added to the lie and insisted that Israelis were banning Palestinians from their buses and suggested it was like 1950s America.

I wouldn't be surprised if Ziad Jilani had tried to drive through the East Jerusalem checkpoint, to be honest with you and the Israeli Army had moved in self defence.

There's very little information on the case, apart from on the most loony anti-Semitic webpages. Electronic Intifada, Richard Silverstein, antiwar, Islamist websites and so on.

I think you are going to get these people with these sort of views.

It matter only if they have power and influence. Of course if he does act out his desires that is clearly wrong.

I am not one who think that everyone one in the Knesset or Israeli military is moderate, and the rising dominance of the ultras is a concern, not least for Israelis.

On the other hand these thread are just terrible, there is no really argument there.

What I hate about these scenarios, it there is too much focus on who is wrong, rather then solutions. I get the impression you would rather be seen as suffering, than liberated.

Yes, there are certainly a number of MKs I would not want around for dinner. Starting with the Arab MKs who demand Israel's demise in there every week.

Opposition to Israel and its policies =/= bigotry against Jews.

This dishonest smear by Israeli supporters has been rubbished already but you consistently parrot it in hope that by throwing enough mud it will stick.

One significant difference is that those English police officers were reprimanded by their superiors (eventually). This individual on the other hand was allowed to carry out a cold blooded murder of a Palestinian civillian. Why wasnt he stripped of his badge upon expressing his views?


No, in some instances its worse than 1950's America. I am not aware of any instance that the white Americans built a concrete wall around the black ghetto which was patrolled day and night by heavilly armed guards, and prohibited re-entry to those that fled the country.

the British had promised land to both sides and were sticking up for the Israelis in as much as it suited their agenda.
