Inviting International Intervention

The Strategic Interest

The war in Gaza is moving into its “international” phase, with a host of countries and institutions offering schemes for a cease-fire. Most of these involve the likely deployment at border crossing points into Gaza of third-party monitors, including the active participation in peacekeeping arrangements of two of Israel’s neighbors, Egypt and the West Bank-based Palestinian Authority.
Despite some obvious concerns regarding its freedom of action, Israel welcomes these initiatives.
For most of the past 61 years, however, Israeli security thinkers and policy planners have feared that an Arab or multinational coalition could gang up on Jerusalem and attempt to impose a one-sided political solution. This was termed, with trepidation, “internationalizing” or “regionalizing” the Arab-Israel conflict.
No! World Jewry already knew its chances of success when the stampede begun in the 1930's. Today these Jews who claim to be six to seven million live surrounded by 300,000,000 Arabs! Where is Jewry's power coming from to challenge such a huge number of people who DO NOT want those who arrived at their soil uninvited. Jewry's power comes from guarantees that they obtained from the major powers before they even set foot on Arab soil. What this author is saying is pure nonsense. Go see the article about Olmert boasting to the world how he changed the course of the Gaza war when he demanded that Bush skip his speech and receive Olmert's phone call. Bush said: Yes Sir!
Over the years, the United Nations, the Arab League and even the European Union have been suspect in Israeli eyes. Israelis worried that they would seek to impose peace arrangements prejudicial to Israel’s interests. Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat’s strategy in the second intifada, which Israel successfully thwarted, was understood to involve “internationalization” of the conflict, with neighboring Arab states dragged in and various peacekeeping forces and peacemaking coalitions becoming involved on behalf of the Palestinian cause.
What the Jewish author means by "prejudicial to Israel’s interests" is that the Jews would not be allowed to march forward per their agenda for 'Greater Israel'. These are a European people who have built homes that look European, who have needs of huge amonts of water to live a Western life style on Arab soil. Jewry's dreams could only be achieved by ethnically cleansing a huge section of the Arab population so that the Jews would have their dream of a life of luxury unfettered by the nuisances of the indigenous people.
Yet in recent years, Israel’s fears have been slowly but radically mollified. Now Israel’s wars reach a point where Israel actually solicits “internationalization.”
Israel’s attitude toward regional and multilateral cooperation in peace-related issues began to change with the 1991 Gulf War. Israel and the Gulf states discovered that they could be the target of aggression by a shared enemy, in this case Iraq. The next breakthrough came in 2000, when Israel withdrew unilaterally from Southern Lebanon. For the first time in decades, an Israeli government collaborated closely with the United Nations in determining an Israeli-Arab border and the modalities of an Israeli withdrawal.
The above paragraph should leave no doubt in any one's mind that World Jewry benefited immensely by the destruction of Iraq.
The unique unilateral withdrawal of 2000 also reflected Israel’s growing problem with non-functioning states and militant Islamist movements on its borders: Hezbollah in Lebanon and Hamas in Gaza. The enemy’s guerilla and terror tactics drag Israel into nasty combat situations that threaten the lives of multitudes of civilians and inevitably produce humanitarian crises. Neither traditional military nor traditional diplomatic solutions work in these circumstances, and Israelis dread the thought of occupying more hostile Arab territory. Hence Israel feels impelled, however reluctantly, to actively solicit new alliances with international third parties or neighboring states that at least partly share Israel’s perception of the problem at hand.
"Israelis dread the thought of occupying more hostile Arab territory." This is so funny. To begin with they are 'Israelis' by occupying stolen land. Is there any other kind of territory beside 'hostile' when people stampede from thousands of miles to where they do no belong with the full supremacist plot to dispossess people of color off their land? Where else would Jewry find a friendly territory on the world where the people of the land would all smiles to watch aliens stampeding towards their land?
This was evident on the occasion of Israel’s unilateral withdrawal from Gaza in the summer of 2005. In an unprecedented step, Prime Minister Ariel Sharon recruited Egyptian cooperation to compensate for the removal of Israel’s security presence at the Philadelphi border strip between Gaza and Sinai. And he asked the European Union to monitor the Rafah crossing at that border. A Palestinian Authority presence at the Egyptian and Israeli border crossings with Gaza was also agreed upon. Today, despite the failure of the entire 2005 Gaza initiative that is expressed in the Gaza war, Israel and Egypt are discussing a renewed attempt to implement those 2005 arrangements, with one welcome added feature: a more concerted attempt to stop Hamas arms smuggling at the Gaza-Sinai border.
European Jews get all the weapons they need in broad day light, and we have seen the devastating power of their arsenal, but they refuse to allow the occupied to have stones and sticks? This is a demented people! They and only they get to have all the arsenal they want but not their enemy! Where in the world would such nonsense make sense?
This déjŕ vu aspect of the international phase of the current war is even more reminiscent of the summer 2006 war between Israel and Hezbollah. Then, as now, the moderate Sunni Arab states recognized a paradigm shift in the regional balance of forces, with Iran and its allies increasingly challenging not only Israel but Sunni Arab states’ hegemony as well.
The Sunni vs Shia is Jewry's most powerful weapon to divide the Arab people. Read one of the most important documents by the name of 'The Zionist Plan for the Middle East by Oded Yinon'. They lay it out in detail how Jewry plans to weaken all the Arab people. It is very simple logic that with a strong Arab people, Jewry's malignant tumor that they call 'Israel' would have zero chance of being! Iran is not an aggressor state. It has never unilaterally attacked any country. It is a country with thousands of civilization, pride and heritage. What are the chances that the Iranians would be as blood thirsty and rain bombs on innocent gentiles?
Two new modes of international and regional cooperation emerged from the summer 2006 war. For the first time in the history of Israeli-Arab wars, the introduction of an international force, UNIFIL II, to the war zone became an official Israeli war objective. (Thus far in the Gaza war, this arrangement has proved its efficacy and contributed to Hezbollah’s reluctance to join the fray.)
We are back to the 'Guarantees' that Jewry obtained from the major powers before stampeding to Palestine. The 'international force' is there as part of the Guarantee of the existence of the Jewish state. Otherwise, Olmert would just have picked up the phone and had them removed.
Then, too, the combination of Iranian and Syrian machinations and Islamist militants in Southern Lebanon generated a reflex of unprecedented support for Israel among the moderate Sunni Arab regimes. This, in turn, formed the backdrop to the Arab League summit of 2007 that reaffirmed the 2002 Arab peace initiative. The peace initiative thus emerged with far greater regional and international strategic significance than it initially enjoyed. It was perceived by both Israelis and Arabs as proposing a potential platform around which an Israeli-Palestinian peace effort could be launched, as well as a framework for institutionalizing some concept of regional cooperation against Iranian-led Islamist militancy.
NO! The Jewish author had an obligation not to confuse his readers. Arab regimes are just Arab whores who only care about the size of the bank account. The Arab people do not want this satanic 'state' in their midst. It simply does not belong! It belongs among other things because of the decadence of the Arab regimes who were put in their thrones by the same people who are oppressing the Arabs - the West and world Jewry!
Where might these developments lead us? Israel and Arab moderates appear to have come about as far as they can on their own toward establishing a cooperative relationship. Without solid input from the United States, neither a stable Gaza cease-fire arrangement, nor renewal of the Israeli-Arab peace process nor promotion of the Arab peace initiative can move much further. Moreover, there are legitimate concerns in Israel that the increasingly dysfunctional Arab state system represented by the Arab League will ultimately prove incapable of delivering in any significant way. Even Egypt, with all its good intentions (from Israel’s standpoint) regarding Gaza, is now practically admitting it needs help to secure its own border against Hamas arms smuggling.
Of course, Mubareck is one of the major Arab whores. The statement above should be extremely embarrassing to any Arab whether ruler or ruled to acknowledge that the regime sides with the enemy of the Arab people! But why would it do that? Remember how Olmert called Bush, and Bush skipped his speech and took the call and did as instructed. That is why! The Jews would bring any country that stands in their way down to its knees. This is not my statement but that of Theodor Herlz. The word he used was 'culamity'.
Israel, Egypt, Turkey, the European Union and the very lame-duck Bush administration will now, hopefully, cobble together a way out of the current Gaza crisis. But beyond that, the task of developing Israeli-Arab regional interaction into a vehicle for advancing Middle East peace and security cooperation must be seen as both a challenge and an opportunity for the Obama administration.
