PEACE IN THE MIDDLE EAST - SYRIAN REBELS TOASTING PEOPLE IN BREAD OVENS


VIOLENCE IN SYRIA CONTINUES
 
(Unconfirmed reports) - Russia Today:  “The situation was terrible - with killing, atrocities, and fear as the background. Unidentified armed men came into town, but it was obvious that they were Jabhat al-Nusra militants,” Muhammad Al-Said said. 
 
The worst crime they committed was that they toasted people in ovens used to bake bread when those people came to buy it. They kidnapped and beat up many,” he added.   According to Al-Said, the rebels committed the atrocities so they could place blame on government forces.

THE DECEITFUL USE OF THE WORD "PEACE" IN THE MIDDLE EAST

Commentary
 
As U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry continues his aggressive diplomatic efforts to partition Israel in the name of "peace" - in order to create an Islamist Palestinian State alongside an indefensible nine-mile-wide Israel - there is an ongoing and never-ending CONFLICT WITHIN ISLAM.
 
The push for a Palestinian state is not about peace.  Even if Israel were to be completely wiped off the map, along with the destruction of every Jew in the world, the Middle East and other countries with Muslim populations would continue to experience serious conflict - that would spill over the rest of the planet.
 
Peace in the Middle East is not about Israel.  The push to partition and to eventually dismantle Israel is fed mostly by hatred.  It's not about peace.
 
Israel is NOT the occupier.  Although a majority of original Jews were exiled or enslaved by the Romans, there was always a Jewish presence in Israel.  The Romans occupied Israel.  A few centuries later came the Muslim invasion.  They arrived from what today is Saudi Arabia and spread all over the Middle East, Africa, and eventually Europe.  They supplanted regional cultures and languages and today much of the Middle East speaks Arabic.  Older traditions and languages in Asia and Africa were obliterated.  

Even Muslims in Israel speak the language of the Arab invaders.  Some of those Arabs  are the descendants of those invaders, others are the descendants of local Jews forced by the sword to convert to Islam. 
 
But Jews in Israel and in exile retained their ancient Hebrew language using it for religious activities, and kept their traditions for over two thousand years. 

The area had come under the occupation of the Muslim Ottoman Empire.  They were defeated by the British during World War One, who then became the last occupier.  Violating the League of Nations Mandate for Palestine, they took 75% of the land that was to be returned to the Jews for a Jewish homeland, and created the Kingdom of Jordan. 

Jordan is PalestineThat country, illegally carved out of Jewish land by the British, is now for all practical purposes the Palestine that Arabs call for.  The Queen is Palestinian and so are a majority of Jordan's inhabitants.  Jordan is Palestine.
 
Jewish survivors returned to Israel.  They joined Jewish exiles who had managed to come home in the 19th century and early 20th century, and the Jewish population that had never left the land of Israel. 

The return was not easy.  The Arabs and the British conspired to keep them away and to sabotage the revival of Israel.  The Arabs rose against the Jewish presence and  massacred many Jews.  But the barely armed Jews managed against all odds and prevailed.
 
That was not all.  Again, outnumbered and outgunned the Israelis even won two more defensive wars against the Arab countries, in 1967 and 1973 something nobody could have predicted. 

During the 1967 war they recovered their ancient land of Judea, Samaria, and old Jerusalem.  That was land that belonged to them anyway, by historical right and as agreed to by the League of Nations.  You can't be an "occupier" when the land has been yours all along yours.
 
The Muslim/EU/USA war against the Jews.  Unable to see Israel defeated by war, the alliance of Muslim, European and American governments, along with their allies, are now using aggressive diplomacy and economic boycotts to continue the war against the Jews.
 
All the while ignoring the big camel in the room, which is Islam's own internal conflicts.
 
Muslim internal conflicts.   They started after Islam's inception, as a result of a disagreement over who would inherit Muhammad's leadership position.  Islam split into Sunni and Shiite sects, and they have been fighting ever since. 
 
When you hear about Shiite and Sunni bombing each other's mosques in Iraq or elsewhere, that's because those two main groups are fighting for revenge and supremacy.
 
The Middle East at large is also split along the Sunni-Shiite divide  Thus the rivalry between the Shiite Iranians (and president Assad in Syria and Hezbollah in Lebanon) on one side, and the Sunni Saudi royals on the other.
 
Islam's internal conflicts will not end until one of the sects completely overpowers the other. 
 
But the media and the governments of Europe and the United States barely acknowledge that, as they continue with their obsession to partition Israel in the name of peace. 
 
Questioning Israel's legitimacy.  Critics continue to challenge Israel's legitimacy, although their own European roots are much younger and undefined than Israel's. 
 
There was already a Jewish state in ancient times when Europe was inhabited by an assortment of primitive tribes that moved around due to expansion or warfare.  
 
The United States came into existence much later, and it did so by displacing Asian populations that had lived in America for thousands of years.  

American and European Christians still read about Israeli history in their Bibles, but deny Jews the right to their ancient land.
 
The irony of it all is that Jews were never accepted in Europe.  They were segregated into ghettos, massacred, tortured by the Inquisition, repeatedly expelled from their European homes, and eventually starved and massacred by the millions by the Nazi regime.  But they did not want them in in their own ancient land either.
 
During the Nazi regime, Western nations - notoriously Britain - denied desperate Jews access to either a refuge in Britain, or entry to their ancient land, which was still under the British Mandate for Palestine.   Britain and other nations were thus complicit with the murder of six million Jews during the Holocaust.
 
Not content with that, they now pursue the weakening of Israel in the hope that Arabs will be able to finish off the Jews and take over Israel.  They don't say it in those words, but they use subterfuge and obfuscation.  And they use the word "peace" to really mean partition and the eventual obliteration of Israel.

But it's not all about hatred at the moment.  The West is guided by its gluttony for oil, and so it chose to side with oil-rich nations and their allies.  It's all very practical, actually.
