Jews for this and Jews for that

Jews for this and Jews for that! Haven't we had enough of exclusive Jewish groups supposedly speaking on behalf of the Palestinian people, but a closer look at their charter reveals that this is yet another of those Jewish groups whose main agenda is damage control for their own Ashkenazi Tribe. No one except the Arabs should be in leadership position when it comes to protest groups simply due to the fact that Jews have divided loyalties and why take the risk of betrayal when Arabs can create their own movements speaking on their own behalf. It is not like there are not eloquent speakers and organizers among the Arab people.

This group is a second one that I have across in very recent times launching websites to fight against Zionism. The first group has a name of 'J Street', and the 'J' serves a very important purpose in letting outsiders know that this is an exclusively Jewish group. It does not require sophisticated analysis to arrive at the conclusion that these Jewish groups are created to serve their own tribal Ashkenazi people. It is also important to keep in mind that we might see the emergence of these types of Jewish groups due to the fact that their 'Greater Israel' seems to be out of reach, and hence their best avenue at this point is to come forth as the defenders of the Palestinian rights.

I read very carefully the IJSN's (international Jewish anti-Zionist network) documents that they posted online such as their charter, Points of Unity, Statement of Purpose, and this group is like any other Jewish-only groups, in that it is not hard to detect that their main agenda being the welfare of their own tribal people. Again, it is good to keep in mind that these groups are coming about after Huzbullah showed the world that resistance and dedication to one's cause could eventually bear fruit. Olmert did finally announce that the Jews' 'greater Israel' is not within reach of the Jewish people. Jewish groups did not manage to have Iran bombed as they did with Iraq, and that poses another serious concern.

What I found disheartening as I read this group's charter is the number of times they mentioned how the Jewish people have struggled for justice, how great 'Jewish tradition' is. What I would like to do is quote some of their statements and then provide my rebuttal.

"We are building an international voice, which challenges Zionism and its claim to speak on behalf of Jews worldwide. As an international force, we can contribute to the movement to defeat Israeli colonialism".

My reponse: Zionism does in fact have the backing of the overwhelming people who go by "Jews', the Jews are very defensive when it comes to this stolen piece of Arab real estate they deceptively renamed 'Israel'. The expression 'Israeli colonialism' is strange in that what is intended by this Jewish group is to convey the message that only post 1967 theft of Arab land is theft and anything prior is legitimate, and hence the entity they call 'Israel' is colonizing what they stole in 1967. That is always the case with any Jewish groups, none of them would come forward and acknowledge the fact that theft is theft, and the international community had no right to partition land that belongs to the Arab people. Another expression used is 'Israeli apartheid' which leaves no room for doubt that this group considers 'Israel' a legitimate entity and hence their objection is to post 1967 theft of Arab land. Heck, Olmert did announce to the world that Jews should give up the hope of conquering all of Palestine and beyond, that the Arabs will never allow any alien people to stampede to their land take it over.

"The liberation of the Palestinian people and land is an indispensable part. Our commitment is to the dismantling of Israeli apartheid, the return of Palestinian refugees, and the ending of the Israeli colonization of historic Palestine".

My reponse: Of course, what this Jewish group has in mind for the Arab people is South African style of 'reconciliation'. It makes no sense for an occupying entity that goes by 'Israel' to end 'colonization of historic Palestine' unless all Jews (European, Arab, Asian, African) were to be de-colonized, which means returning them back to their place of origins which would be called de-colonization. But that is not what this nice exclusively Jewish group has in mind. Of course not! That would be the last thing this Jewish group or any other Jewish groups would wish for their own people. The ascendance of Jews internationally to unprecedented levels of political and financial powers has to do with their clinching and controlling a strategically located chunk of Arab real estate, and no group of people would be willing to part with it unless they are forced out of the area and the only people in whose best interest it is to do so would be the Arabs and the Arabs only.

"From Poland to Iraq, from Argentina to South Africa, from Brooklyn to Mississippi, Jews have taken up their quest for justice, and their desire for a more just world, by joining with others in collective struggles. Jews participated prominently in the workers' struggle of the depression era, in the civil rights movement, in the struggle against South African Apartheid, in the struggle against fascism in Europe, and in many other movements for social and political change. The State of Israel's historic and ongoing ethnic cleansing of the Palestinian people from their land contradicts and betrays these long histories of Jewish participation in collective liberation struggles".

Here we go with the bragging by this Jewish group about the goodness of the Jewish people. This theme is repeated many times in their document along with the 'greatness of Jewish tradition'. Giving credit where credit is due, I think it may be correct to say that Jews as a group do struggle for justice and equality. I think a whopping 70% of all white Americans who participated in the civil rights movement were Jews. But the same cannot be side for the struggle to free Palestine from the clutches of International Jewry. In fact, what stands in the way for the Palestinian struggle are the same Jews who had no problem during the civil rights movement, but they are indeed a hindrance for the Palestinian struggle. It is the fact that Palestine is colonized by Jews which makes it the hardest struggle, because those same Jews who helped during the civil rights era do engage in undermining the Palestinian cause, with very minor exceptions.

My reponse: Ok, we get it. They have to tell the world of their good deeds in the past in order to gain acceptance for Palestinian groups to free Palestine. But 'the State of Israel' was not born yet when European Ashkenazi Jews begun to stampede towards Palestine with the full intent of displacing the people and replacing them with the Jews of Europe. This Jewish group has a problem denouncing the fact that Palestine is occupied by alien European Jewry who has no business being on that land except by brute force. They have no intention of stating the fact that 'the state of Israel' does not exist in the minds of the colonized people. This group does not seem to have a problem with the way this land was snatched away, they seem to focus on how the Jews who came from all corners of the world and the indigenous people could get along and live together in peace and harmony. It is akin to demanding of a rape victim that her rapist won't rape her anymore, but that they are to share the same house.

"Zionism has been nourished by the most violent and oppressive histories of the nineteenth Century, at the expense of the many strains of Jewish commitment to liberation. To reclaim them, and a place in the vibrant popular movements of our time, Zionism, in all its forms, must be stopped".

My reponse: No! This is a very deceptive statement. A Palestinian activist was once asked what she thought of anti-Zionist Jews. She replied by saying that they were all wonderful and then she added, 'all fifteen of them'. She was right then and she would be right today. The number of truly anti-Zionist Jews is extremely small, probably a hundred worldwide. The rest of them are the damage control crowd, which I believe is the case with this group.

"It also dishonors the persecution and genocide of European Jews by using their memory to justify and perpetuate European racism and colonialism".

My reponse: Here we go again, this Jewish group is invoking their 'holocaust'. The Arabs have nothing to do with the Jews' holocaust and they should not be burdened with a very predatory and blood thirsty European Jewry on their land causing unspeakable havoc on the land and the people.

"It is responsible for the extensive displacement and alienation of Mizrahi Jews (Jews of African and Asian descent) from their diverse histories, languages, traditions and cultures. Mizrahi Jews have a history in this region of over 2,000 years. As Zionism took root, these Jewish histories were forced from their own course in service of the segregation of Jews imposed by the State of Israel".

My reponse: It is true that Europe's Ashkenazi Jewry caused the stampede of the Arab Jews who had lived on their respective lands for thousands of years, they did in fact speak Arabic. Upon arrival in Palestine, the Arab Jews were to find out that the European Jews brought them over only to have cheap labor. They were looked down upon and discouraged to keep their ancient golden history and made to speak a newly resuscitated Middle Eastern language, Hebrew. African Jews (mostly Ethiopian and Ugandan) are not 'Mizrahi Jews'. North African people are Arabs and those Jews from that region would be considered 'Mizrahi Jews' also commonly known as 'Oriental Jews'. This Jewish group repeats 'the State of Israel' many times in their documents, hence establishing its legitimacy. It is never legitimate in the eyes of the terrorized Arabs.

"The extrication of Jewish history, politics, community, and culture from the grip of Zionism".

My reponse: Again, this is intended to make people believe that Zionism is just a runaway cult not a part and parcel of Jewry. Not so! All Jews are Zionists in as long as they believe that European Ashkenazi Jewry needs to be rewarded for stealing land by force by giving it proper recognition as 'the state of Israel'

"Towards fulfilling this strategic role, we are calling anti-Zionist Jews to take up the following actions in the world".

My reponse: It is never explained what an anti-Zionist Jew is. But it is not hard to arrive as to what it is not! It does recognize the Jewish state right to exist on stolen land, but belatedly have come to recognize that 'greater Israel' is not achievable, and like the good Jews that they claim to be have come forth declaring themselves 'anti-Zionist Jews.

"Confront Zionism: Support the Palestinian call for boycotting Zionist and Israeli cultural, educational, sporting and political events and academia. Confront Zionist organizations that support Israeli apartheid, that censor and target individuals and organizations for criticism of Israel, and that collaborate in US, Canadian, European Islamophobia".

My reponse: This Jewish group is concerned with 'apartheid' Israel only and not with the whole notion of a European people occupying Arab land called Palestine. They just want the Jews to reform and try to get along with the colonized people of Palestine. The word 'Islamophobia' is scattered all over their documents. I tend not to like this expression, while the Jews of Europe who have nothing to do with 'Semitic' have an expression of 'anti-Semitic' in regards mostly to European prejudice and hatred toward fellow Europeans, the Ashkenazi Jews. I would prefer for this group to say anti-Arab or anti-Muslim since their tribal people have already snatched away and clung to the anti-Semitic expression.

Letter to Mercedes Sosa

Sunday, July 27, 2008

"We undersign this letter as Jews from all over the world. We sign as Jews because we are worried that you might think that through your visit to Israel you stand in solidarity with us Jews, on account of the terrible history of Jewish persecution in Europe." As much as we try, our imagination fails us. How will you sing "cuando tenga la tierra" for a state devoted to the expropriation of the land's peasants, its indigenous communities? Will you let that song become the anthem of the expropriator?"

My reponse: This may sound like a group of altruistic Jews concerned with the welfare of the Palestinian people. But you must understand that when they said 'a state devoted to the expropriation of the land's peasants', their intention is to make it appear as if the entire piece of Arab land they have named 'Israel' is not land taken away by force, even the force and pressure applied to the international community to enable world Jewry to snatch a piece of prime real estate. The international community had no right or business gifting Arab land to world Jewry.

"We know that you have visited Israel before. However, the Israel you visited then appeared as if it were about to step on the path toward peace. Those hopes for a positive change that you may remember from your last visit have been dashed. Israel is today more than ever an apartheid state, a state committed to the continued violent colonization and ethnic cleansing of the indigenous people of Palestine".

My reponse: Again, what we have here is a group of Ashkenazi Jews who are misleading in their assessment that there was a time when 'Israel' 'about to step on the path toward peace; I wonder what period of time the Zionist colonial masters of the Arabs had ever shown anything but death and destruction of the people of Palestine. You must also not forget to take notice that 'colonization' referred here is the post-1967 theft of Arab land by International Jews. Since 'Israel' is a legitimate entity in the eyes of these Jews, it cannot possibly colonize itself .

My reponse: This is very typical of Jewish groups where they feel the need to inject their persecution in Europe and it has absolutely nothing to do with the Arabs.

"This growing network of Jews, with local network affiliates in the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, Europe, Israel, India, Morocco, Mexico and Argentina, was formed to join the struggle for justice in Palestine and the Middle East and challenge the Zionist censorship of Palestinian and other resistance to Zionism. IJAN seeks to rekindle a long Jewish tradition of participation in struggles for liberation and against exploitation and oppression'.

My reponse: Here we go again with their boasts of 'Jewish tradition'. Do these Jews recognize the fact that billions of people around the globe do indeed have traditions that are generous and just? Why must we be told a million times over about 'Jewish tradition' and I have often wondered what its basis is since the Torah is beyond satanic. And why must these Ashkenazi Jews and so many others like them feel that they need to stand alone and segregated, even while advocating peace and harmony in the world. Is it possible that they wish to use it for the future to boast about 'Jewish tradition'? The Jews worldwide are not even a quarter of one percent of the world's population, and yet there are probably a million Jewish groups, which means a Jewish group per ten Jews.

"The movement against Zionist apartheid must be as uncompromising as was the movement against South African apartheid."

My reponse: Well, sooner or later, they are bound speak what is in their mind, and here they have spoken. It is not a struggle against 'Zionism' per se, but 'apartheid Zionism'. How is 'apartheid Zionism' any different from 'Zionism'. Perhaps this nice Jewish group needs to be reminded about Herzl's famous diary entry of 1895.

"We must expropriate gently the private property on the state assigned to us. We shall try to spirit the penniless population across the border by procuring employment for it in the transit countries, while denying it employment in our country. The property owners will come over to our side. Both the process of expropriation and the removal of the poor must be carried out discretely and circumspectly. Let the owners of the immoveable property believe that they are cheating us, selling us things for more than they are worth. But we are not going to sell them anything back."

Why the deception?

"IJAN distinguishes itself from Jewish and other peace groups that do not reject Zionism or the continuation of an exclusionary Jewish State. IJAN's charter states, "We commit ourselves wholeheartedly to the liberation of Palestine."

My reponse: This statement is not what it appears to be. How do these nice Jews expect to liberate Palestine without sending back its colonizers to their respective homelands? What they mean is the one state solution where the rapist continues to enjoy the land of the Arab people, but after 'liberation', they can exploit to their heart's desire. The South African elite did state openly that had they known how much sweeter life would be in South Africa post apartheid that they would never have resisted the dismantlement of apartheid. That is exactly what these nice Jews have in mind for their tribal members.

"The justice we work for must be built by those throughout Palestine, including Israel, and those in Palestinian refugee camps, whose struggle for self-determination can lead to equity and freedom for all who live there and in the surrounding lands."

My reponse: One is compelled to fetch a map of the world and determine what these nice Jews mean by 'throughout Palestine, including Israel'. Is 'Israel' now part of 'Palestine'?

"We are an international network of Jews who are uncompromisingly committed to struggles for human emancipation, of which the liberation of the Palestinian people and land is an indispensable part. Our commitment is to the dismantling of Israeli apartheid, the return of Palestinian refugees, and the ending of the Israeli colonization of historic Palestine."

'An international network of Jews'? Hmmm! Why does it give me a worrying feeling? These nice Jews keep repeating 'liberation of the Palestinian people' while they are at the same time committed to a non-apartheid 'Israel'? It is such a convoluted notion. As I was reading all their statements, it appeared to me that this group was formed only because of Huzbullah, Iran, Hamas and Olmert's statement that the international community is leaning more and more towards a one state solution to the Palestinian predicament. Of course, the only justice for the Palestinians would be to have all the countries from where the Jews stampeded to Palestine to pick their citizens, pay appropriate compensation for all the decades of evil injustice committed upon all the Arab people and start life all over again. But Jews all over the planet, including these nice Jews of this group, would never let go of Palestine unless the Arabs gained enough unity and strength to send them away to where they belong.

My reponse: Well, one can never accuse these people of being altruistic. It never stops, the gentile world is constantly reminded about how Jews did this and that good deed.

"Zionism-the founding and current ideology that manifested in the State of Israel-took root in the era of European colonialism and was spread in the aftermath of the Nazi genocide. Zionism has been nourished by the most violent and oppressive histories of the nineteenth Century, at the expense of the many strains of Jewish commitment to liberation. To reclaim them, and a place in the vibrant popular movements of our time, Zionism, in all its forms, must be stopped."

My reponse: Here we go again about 'Jewish commitment to liberation'. One would think that liberation is the basis for human dignity and that all of humanity would embrace and cherish it and not only Jews. Here is a little falsehood in their attempt to diminish Jewish Zionism in that it occurred due to 'nazi genocide' where the truth is that Zionism predates Nazi Germany by many decades. Jewish groups did in fact stop European Jews from migrating to their choice of destination in the hope that they could land on colonized Palestine instead.

"This is crucial, first and foremost, because of Zionism's impact on the people of Palestine and the broader region. It also dishonors the persecution and genocide of European Jews by using their memory to justify and perpetuate European racism and colonialism. It is responsible for the extensive displacement and alienation of Mizrahi Jews (Jews of African and Asian descent) from their diverse histories, languages, traditions and cultures. Mizrahi Jews have a history in this region of over 2,000 years. As Zionism took root, these Jewish histories were forced from their own course in service of the segregation of Jews imposed by the State of Israel."

My reponse: Here we go again inserting their nazi holocaust. They are not worried about the colonization of Palestine by world Jewry to the point where they would be willing to bestow the land of Palestine back to its true owners, the indigenous people. This is so typical of so many Jewish groups and I often wonder why they need so many groups since they all sound so alike.

"As such, Zionism implicates us in the oppression of the Palestinian people and in the debasement of our own heritages, struggles for justice and alliances with our fellow human beings."

My reponse: Here we go again! These Jews seem to be concerned about the 'debasement' of their good names as Jews, and in order to keep their good names they are willing to come forth and denounce Zionism, and only because world public opinion is shifting from blind support for Jewry and the world has come to recognize the Jewish state as one of the most bestial perpetrators of injustice. They do not want that to reflect that on them as it should, because world Jewry is solidly behind this little malignant tumor stuck in the heart of the Arab world where it does not belong.

"Zionism is racist. It demands political, legal and economic power for Jews and European people and cultures over indigenous people and cultures. Zionism is not just racist but anti-Semitic".

My reponse: There is more than one problem with this statement. The use of the expression 'anti-septic' is wrong since Europe's Jewry has nothing to do with the Semitic people of the Middle East, East and North Africa. The part about 'Jews and European people' since this Jewish group seems to disown Ashkenazi Jewry's European origin. And who else is the 'European people' that Zionism is supposed to be seeking power for? The answer is that the only European people are the Ashkenazi Jews.

"Zionism thus seeks to make Jews white through the adopting of white racism against Palestinian people.'

My reponse: This is a great example of why people should run in the opposite direction when confronted by Jewish groups. This statement is not only incoherent but also silly. Who are the 'white' people supposed to be? Ashkenazi Jews, as a European people are white and there is no need to make a white people whiter. 'Adopting white racism'? Why is that the Ashkenazi Jews do not have their own home grown racism towards all people of color, including the Palestinian Arabs and Arab Jews? Why attempt to stick it to the European people for the Ashkenazi Jewry's supremacist feelings over the rest of humanity. They do not refer to themselves s the 'chosen people' for nothing.

"Zionism claims that Jewish safety depends on a militarized Jewish state. But Israel does not make Jews safe. Its violence guarantees instability and fear for those within its sphere of influence and endangers the safety of all people, including Jews, far beyond its borders. Zionism colluded willingly in creating the conditions that led to violence against Jews in Arab countries. The loathing aroused by Israeli violence and military domination toward Jews living in Israel and elsewhere is used to justify further Zionist violence."

My reponse: This Jewish group's agenda is to make the gullible people believe that 'Israel' is separate and apart from world Jewry where the facts on the ground tell a totally different story. There are thousands of Jewish groups all over the world, all united by their quest to have their 'state' overpower the Arab people. Jews internationally are worried about the safety and security of this little stolen Arab land. It has broken up families and friendships, because anything else can be tolerated except disloyalty to their 'state' where they all feel they have a stake in, citizenship is only an air ticket away.

"From the ever-expanding settlements to the Apartheid Wall, Israel's commitment to colonial domination leaves its mark in environmental damage and the destruction of the physical landscape of Palestine."

My reponse: They must of course state the obvious so that their anti-Zionist credentials are verified. But what is puzzling about these [anti-Zionist] Jews is that they seem to have an entity they refer to as 'Israel' and another one called 'Palestine'. And 'Israel' is supposed to be within 'Palestine'. What Palestine? They do not consider stolen Palestine that goes by 'Israel' as Palestine. They just want the colonized to embrace the colonizer and start singing.

"The danger of nuclear war through a US/Israeli attack on Iran reminds us that Israel is an atomic bomb that should be urgently dismantled for the sake of saving the lives of all its current and potential victims.

My reponse: Again, what this nice Jewish group have in mind by a 'dismantled Israel' is the African style where the Ashkenazi Jews would -with their connections to the powers of the world - always enslaving the indigenous Arabs but this time around it would be done legally.

"In both Europe and the US, supposedly "Jewish" organizations are now at the forefront of pushing for war with Iran."

My reponse: Why would this nice Jewish group put 'Jewish' in quotes? It is an open secret that Jewish organizations all over the world have been lusting to see Iranian blood soak the Iran soil as they managed to have Arab blood soak Iraqi soil. Why the pretense? 'Supposedly'? What is that supposed to mean? Who else is out there lusting for Iranian blood if not Jewish people? In fact, this group in all likelihood came about when the decimation of Iran was remote. If Iran was under control, then Jewish power is guaranteed from here to eternity. Huzbullah would be finished without Iranian support and so would Syria and Hamas. My feeling is that this Jewish group got together in response to the failure to tackle Iran. If you cannot fight them, then put a good Jewish face out there, the kind of Jews who are forever boasting about their past good deeds, one more to put on their resume.

"Cracks are appearing in the edifice of Zionism as in that of US world dominance itself. In the region, extraordinary resistance from Palestine and Southern Lebanon to Israeli and US aggression and occupation has been sustained despite limited resources and many betrayals."

My reponse: Bingo! Exactly what I had been thinking all along, that this nice Jewish group is due to the recognition that Jewish power is anchored on American power, and as America's power plummets so does the power of world Jewry. Aha! Just as I indicated that this group was propelled by the end of Zionist mirage to conquered the Arab world with the guarantee of the West, they got to have that guarantee, always, and always in exchange for Jewish favors.

"Within the governments and public discussions in the United States and Europe, the costs of unconditional support to Israel are increasingly questioned."

My reponse: This nice Jewish group did assess the likelihood of sustaining the welfare state and chances are not looking too good and hence this group was formed to

'dismantle Israel', which means the colonized would be forced, against their will, to accept their former killers and live happily ever after.

"It is not our job to prescribe what road the Palestinian people should take toward defining their future. We do not presume to substitute our voices for theirs."

My reponse: This is such a silly if not prosperous statement. Of course not, if for no other reason that the Palestinian people would not trust or allow a Jewish group to speak for them.

"We stand by the rights of indigenous peoples to their land and sovereignty."

My reponse: 'The land' this nice Jewish group is referring to does not include 'Israel', of course not!. We have yet to hear what justification they give to their brethren to keep stolen land.

"We commit to support justice so that healing may take root. There is much to heal: the wounds inflicted by the imposition and operation of colonial rule in Palestine and the broader region; the traumas of the European oppression of Jews that the Zionist project is exploiting; the fears and deprivations suffered through years of bloodshed; the manipulations of culture and resources used to exploit Mizrahi Jews and divide them from Palestinians; and the continuing massacre, rape and dispossession of Palestinian people.

My reponse: How nice! The nice Jewish group did sneak in their 60-year-old 'holocaust' while the fresh blood is still soaking Palestine. This Jewish group seems to be over concerned about a people they refer to as 'Mizrahi Jews'. I have two problems with it. (1) It is true that the Arab Jews that left their homelands in the Arab countries (the Arab region and north Africa) are treated as second class citizens, but the fact remains that over the last six decades the attitude of this group of Arab Jews has been contaminated by the very racist and elitist Jews of Europe (also known as Ashkenazi or Khazars) that they have turned against their own brother and sisters, the Arabs and in solidarity with their co-religionist, the Jews of Europe. (2) This nice Jewish group very conveniently lumped the Jews of Ethiopia and Uganda as 'Mizrahi Jews', which is most certainly false. The reason they believed they could get away with was the used 'African' to describe the Arab Jews of North Africa, which is Arab. Black Jews receive the most lethal kind of discrimination of all the Jews, and they were never welcome if it were not for making a scene at the Jews' embassy in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. To avoid embarrassment the Jewish state airlifted thousands of Ethiopian Jews only to turn around and tell the world how courageously the Ashkenazi Jews rescued the Ethiopian Jews.

"The justice we work for must be built by those throughout Palestine, including Israel, and by Palestinian refugees, whose struggle for self-determination can lead to equity and freedom for all who live there and in the surrounding lands."

My reponse: This nice Jewish group seems to be accepting International law when they deem it necessary that the expelled Palestinians be allowed to return to their homeland. But that homeland is now occupied by Europe's Jewry and the other Jews brought to Palestine to make the lives of the racist Ashkenazi Jews comfy. This Jewish group keeps saying: "Palestine, including Israel". I am really at a loss. Is 'Israel' part of 'Palestine? Is there enough land in Palestine to sustain its own Palestinian people (those under occupation and in the Diaspora) without having the colonizing Jews do what former colonizers have done, which is pack up and do a u-turn to their place of origin? "

"Do you stand against racism in all its forms? Then we call you to join with us in ending Israeli apartheid."

My reponse: What this nice Jewish people have in mind is the South African style where the Palestinian people are expected to dance around the fireplace arm-in-arm with their former tormentors. By dismantle, the Jewish group means a one state solution, where the power would be in the hands of what they refer to as 'white Jews' but the right word is 'European Jews'.

"Do you support the sovereignty and land-rights of indigenous peoples? Then we call you to join with us in defending the sovereignty and land-rights of Palestinians."

My reponse: Of course this nice Jewish group does not consider what they call 'Israel' to be the land of the Palestinian Arabs. How nice for this nice Jewish group.

"Do you wish to dissociate yourself from the Israeli ethnic cleansing of Palestine and the destruction of history, culture and self-governance? Do you believe there is no peace without justice? Do you feel enraged and saddened that the holocaust against Jewish people is being used to perpetrate other atrocities? Then we call on you to join with us in ending Zionist colonialism."

My reponse: Very clever! The 'justice' this nice Jewish people have in mind for the Palestinian people is South African style of justice where the elite class remains in power, and the devastation of the Arabs could skyrocket once they have abolished all resistance groups under the guise of a 'liberated people'. The Arab people would never consign their liberty to be in the hands of a foreign European Jewry or any other foreign invaders of their land.

"For the people of this planet to live in safety, justice and peace, the Israeli colonial project must be brought to an end. We joyfully take up this collective task of undermining a system of conquest and plunder that has tormented our world for far too long."

My reponse: Don't be fooled for a second by their choice of words. When they say 'Israeli colonial project must end', they do not mean the old fashioned way of how European colonizers of people of color were sent packing and shown the direction of their voyage back to Europe. No, this Jewish group is Jewish, first and foremost and the well being of their tribe is of paramount importance. Nowhere in their statements is there a hint that by 'justice', that they means real justice, and there will never be justice nor peace in that region until and unless de-colonization takes place, and that means the Arabs regaining their homeland out of the clutches of world Jewry and that can take place only when Arabs have attained enough unity and strength to ship Europe's Jewry back to where they came from. This group's agenda is of no consequence at all towards the welfare of the Arab people, and it is just another Jews-for-this and Jews-for-that group in a desperate attempt to do damage control on behalf of their own tribe. The Arabs and Muslims must wish such a group good luck, but must move ahead and strength their own genuine groups geared towards genuine results.

"Therefore, we are committed to the desalinization of Palestine.

My reponse: What an outrageously deceptive statement. The true meaning of the word 'de-colonization' means simply the same kind of 'de-colonization' as it occurred in Kenya, India, Yemen, and other 'de-colonized' regions of the world whereby the resistance was such that the colonizer had no choice but to make a u turn and go back to where they came from. Nowhere do these Jewish people indicate that is their agenda. No! What they want is South Africa as an example of how to have their Jews continue to influence the lives of the Arabs but this time with the help of the Palestinian elite that would be recruited to make it easier to continued to suck the blood of people of color.
