After spending a lifetime making the life of the Jews
miserable on his deathbed Pius XI understood. Suddenly he felt the need to screem to
the world: "From the spiritual viewpoint we are all Semites." Unfortunately this did not fit
in the carreerplanning of Pacelli, Pius XII. He kept the encyclic 'Humani generis unitas' on
his desk as long as possible. It was never publicized.
After the death of Pius XI Pius
XII publicized 'Summi Pontificatus'. The title alone already shows he was thinking more
about himself than anything else. If we all need to wait until we are dying to understand,
we will have many more disasters to come. Therefore I can't yell hard enough:
We all are Jews

Today the Palestinian leader Mahmud Abbas asked "What is a 'Jewish' state?" Natanyahy wants the Palestinians to recognize the country that unrightfully calls itself 'Israel' as 'a Jewish state', which it isn't either. No wonder Mahmud Abbas has trouble to 'recognize Israel'. They might as well demand from him to recognize 1 + 1 = 3. This demand of Natanyahy also makes me think about what the Catholic church demanded from spiritual people such as nuns, monks, priests, and so on. In convents from the nuns, and priests was demanded total obediance. Cleaning the staircase with a toothbrush, planting leek with the rooths in the sky and the foliage in the ground, are a few things I remember the religion teacher talking about.
By demanding of the Palestinians to recognize a bunch of lies as the truth, Natanyahu in a similar way insults the intelligence and dignity of the Palestinians.

If someone fools you, does that make that person likable? I don't think so, if someone
fools me, that makes me angry towards that person. It makes me feel abused, betrayed.
Yet, my Jewish friend lied to me several times, berated me, called me ugly names, tried
to hurt me, but I always forgave him. His family had been
annihilated during the Second World War, and I cannot keep angry at such a person, no
matter what he does. But isn't that a convenient situation to get anything done from a
person?
Today's dogmatism
Some people of the so called 'Jewish community' in Belgium want us to believe
the Zionist Israeli's are Jewish, and the 'Jewish' Israeli's are saints, cannot do anything
wrong. The Zionist dogma is any wrong the Zionist state does, is right, and the Zionists
expect the world to accept that
dogma, otherwise they boycot the Durban conference. They force as many other countries
into boycotting the Durban conference, but at the same time want us to believe the Muslims
are out to submit us.
Depending on the
situation, they want us to believe Hamas, and even the entire Muslim
world is the incarnation of evil. They expect us to simply buy their crap without even
thinking. Anyone who thinks gets vilified along with the Muslims. They sent around their
world wide network emails
to inform everyone I was 'crazy'. They did worse for Obama, and aren't we supposed to
obey G-d instead of human beings who impose evil schemes on us?
Annoying thinking people
I can imagine it is frustrating for people of Jewish descent to see that after in vain trying to
make people think for so many centuries, after they have given up their attempts to make
people think and chose to base their defense on the fact that people don't think, the
people suddenly started thinking. I can imagine they don't trust this, consider this to be
some kind of trap.
Yet, times have changed. There are people who think these days, and I am
one of them. What is 'annoying' about me is I check what people tell me, and think about it.
During the manifestations in Brussels against the Israeli massacre in Gaza people were
carrying around flags of Hamas. The young Belgian Jewish leader, Michael Freilich
complained about this, said this was the flag of a 'terrorist organisation'. A 'terrorist
organisation'? I wanted to know what 'a terrorist organisation' was, wanted to know what
was so disturbing about those flags? About the answer I found
I wrote in
'The Hamas-flag, what is the trouble?'. The text on the flag says: "There is no god
but God, Muhammad is the Messenger of God". 'Terrorists'? Hello-ho! Then my
grandfather, as a leading member of the resistance against the Nazis during the second
world war, was a 'terrorist' too. Then those Jews who resisted the Nazis, were they 'terrorists'
too? The eternal double standards of people who call themselves 'Jewish',
will I ever get used to it?
People who bet on double standards bet on the wrong
horse.
Denying the truth
It is no use to depict Hamas, and the Muslim world as the devil, and tell us they
throw rockets on the besainted 'Israel' for no reason at all. If we would believe that, it
would mean we had learned nothing from the holocaust, and that we cannot do.
In Yakov Rabkin's
A Threat from Within: A History of Jewish Opposition to Zionism the author explaines
how the Russian history influenced the 'Israeli' developments, and also that the Zionists
were anti-Semite right from the start. The Jewish people did not welcome the Zionist
approach in the early days, which may explain why the Palestinians only weakly protested.
In fact Yakov Rabkin wrote that the Jews were the first to protest against the Zionist and that
the Muslims after some delay followed into their footsteps. Those Arabs whose descendants
are now locked up in the concentration camp of Gaza, threatened with etnic cleansing on
the West Bank, were very warmheartedly and hospitable.
Another distortion
Why did the Arabs kill us in Hebron in 1929", Zionist extremist ask. The question was meant to make their case. Apparently the Hebron uprising of Arabs was provoked by Zionist atheists. But recently rabbi Evers joined into the vilifying of the Arabs, and the Mufti of Jerusalem, Haj Amin Al Housseini. They never tell us about Jabotinsky. In 1923 Jabotinsky publised in Russian an article in which he stated that all Zionists understood that victory could only be achieved by violence. Jabotinsky admired Mussolini. Everything points to the fact that what really is going on is self-centered, power-hungry Zionists are holding the Jews, and people who believe they are Jews, as hostages to hold on to their position. If even rabbis ignore the truth, then where is Judaism heading to?
The Palestinians are the real Israelites
Zionists tell us the Palestinians and the entire Muslim world are anti-Semite. But
I have never seen any evidence on that. They push 'a study' of Hans Janssen under our
noses as 'evidence', but Hans Janssen drips with hatred. That the Arabs are fed up with
the empty Western arrogance, and that the injustice the Palestinian are suffering from are
putting a lot of pressure on them, is not a part of his 'expertise' as an 'Arabist'. The double
standards of the believers of the ideology: 'science'.
The trouble IS NOT that the Palestinian, and Arab people do not understand the
situation in which the 'Jews' came to Palestine. On the contrary, it is easily immaginable
by now they regret bitterly having been too kind, too hospitable, too understanding. The
return on their good behaviour was misery, bloodshed, seemingly never ending suffering.
The trouble IS NOT the Palestinians, and Muslims ignore the holocaust, the trouble is the
ABUSE of the holocaust for very wrong purposes, for the violation of the human
rights of the Palestinians.
Are Zionists anti-Semites?
As far as I can see, except for a minority, they are. The impression I had about the
Zionist so called 'Jews', who were my main opponents in the struggle against racism, was
they were actually Jew-haters,
and they were abusing the Jewish people for a personal agenda. This brings me by the
worrisome fact that the Zionists are atheists, people who spit on any kind of religion,
including the Jewish religion, they so alledgedly intended the country for.
These atheists encouraged the burning of the Torah, while genuine Jews kiss the book
each time after reading in it. This is making me feel so sad, I cannot even describe it.
The deceptive nature of the Zionist propaganda is proven once more. When
it suits them
to vilify Hamas they point at the 'good' Palestinians on the West Bank. But look at what
they do to those Palestinians, who serve the purpose when needed to legitimise the
bloodshed in Gaza, they
shamelessly and unscrupulously go on with the land theft, and etnic cleansing. This
cannot mean anything but the Zionists have no intention whatsoever to even accept the
two state solution. For the record, in the 1968 Fatah charter the Palestinians propose
one state, based on equal rights for all citizens, regardless their religion.
This means the proposition of the Palestinians suits the concept 'country for Jews' far better than the Zionist construction. It seems the Zionists only abuse the Jewish people for their own personal gain. Which is in accordance with the experiences I had for many years. For the sake of the Jewish people I wish I am wrong.

'Jewish community' angry again
Belgium is in turmoil once again. The 'Jewish community' is angry because on Friday in a comedy program fun has been made of the anger of the 'Jewish community'. Previous to this incident the 'Jewish community' expressed her anger towards Bert Anciaux. The Israeli ambassador slammed Anciaux for showing compassion to the Palestinian children killed in the Gaza war. This incident rallied more support for Bert Anciaux he could ever dream of. Anciaux is the righteousness aspiring politician who daydreams on his blog about a world in which all people love one another. To show support for the suppressed all over the world he recommends to wear a keffiyeh. Anciaux also has a big heart for the Jewish community, and demands respect for their kippah. But peculiarly that is ignored.
Selective indignation
This is not the first time the so called 'Jewish community' is NOT interested in being
appreciated so much, but simply want us to stop feeling sorry for the Palestinians. Even
today, and even when it is not relevant, there can be found huge amountS of hostile
remarks towards Muslims in the course of this debate.
For example, Rudi rants at Gerd Daniëls:
"We know you already for a long time as an 'unlimited' defender of everything that has to
do with Islam. Apparently that is accompanied with an equally unlimited aversion for
Judaism." That was his reaction to a statement saying: "It would be
a good idea if Mr. Marinower would let his fellow Jews know the laws of this country do
apply to them too. A few Haredi rabbis decided the mandatory integration courses
were not kosher, and therefore forbidden for Jews. They claim the lessons on social
orientation are not in accordance with the Torah."
In the paragraph about
the elephant and the mosquito in my article
The mistake I make ..., I already wrote about the huge disproportion between the
racism the Arabs in Belgium, especially in Flanders, are the victims, and the minor
incidents the Jewish community encounter.
Unhealed wounds
It is possible that people carry their grief with them for many decades, even their whole life. It happens all the time that people pass their wounds on to their children. The people the age of Claude Marinower are the babies of young survivors of the holocaust who, in most cases, had lost their entire families. Sometimes over 20 people were lost. Simon Wiesenthal lost over 90 relatives. Such dramatic events have a huge impact on people. Possibly the circumstances are not right to process it for part of the victims. I know for a fact one family that is torn over the issue. One Zionist extremist has a habit of raving agitated, while his empathic cousin pleas for understanding and returning to the authentic Jewish values. The impact of the holocaust is different for each of the victims.
Weird kind of 'anti-Semitism'
Many times I was confronted with an extraordinary phenomenon. I don't remember the exact number of times I was accused of anti-Semitism after having made an appreciative statement about the Jewish people. What has surprised me over and over again is how Jewish parents, despite facing much more difficult conditions, than the average people, take great care of the education of their children. They see to it their children get good degrees, good qualifications in order to strengthen their position in society. For expressing my appreciation I have been called 'anti-Semite' several times. I think this points to severe personality problems among some of the people who consider themselves to be 'Jewish'. It would be wise to think.
Another incomprehensible reaction
For
Rudi Roth what I have to say, are 'chimeras', 'delusions', 'stomach phantasies', and where
it comes to him, he claims it is clear I 'project' a lot. Where it comes to Judaism he says
I should leave it to people who have 'something meaningful' to say about it. While he
had no problem at all with threatening me, and other people, today and
in the past this man refused every invitation to sit togheter and talk.
Let the people of the world do the thinking, and judge for themselves.
The sentiment changed
I wrote, the problem people, who could not laugh about the clip of Stijn Meuris, face, is in their thinking the old anti-Semitic concepts still are intact. Apparently the younger generation, that is the post Vatican II generation, is a lot less influenced by those concepts. This means the changes the church made, no matter how limited they were, made the required difference. People like Stijn Meuris left the degrading stereotypes about Jews behind them, and live their lives with an appreciative image about Jews. For many of us it was the stupidity of those who believe the stereotypes, the myths and prejudices that was exposed, and made fun of in the film, rather than the Jewish people. They were only angry.
Jewish is cool & Muslim is cool
Please, allow people to be themselves. Destructive verbal, and other behaviour has
resulted in this situation where people don't feel good about themselves.
The best thing I can do is advise the people, who could not
laugh with the clip, to develop a positive feeling about the Jewish identity. To be Jewish is
O.K. in all its righteous forms. It is important to make that distinction, because there is a
serious problem these days with the
distorted
version of 'Judaism' in 'Israel'. People can read about it in the article 'Black Flag'.
What annoys me in today's society is the lack of profound authentic experiencing of
Judaism. Some recognition of the war-crimes committed by the 'Israeli' government
in Gaza, and a little less navel-gazing, would help.
There was no need to wage war in Gaza
The Gaza war was easily avoidable by having an adult, and honest
talk with Hamas. That back in 1948 the 'Jews' had no choice but to fight for a place of
their own, everybody understands. Today however, times have changed. Now the Zionist
politicians have a choice. They
do not only have the freedom, but also the responsibility to make righteous decisions.
Instead they promise the voters to sacrifice human lives. Barak and Livni waged this war
in Gaza to gain popularity. Mofaz en Netanyahu promise the voters more blood. What
else can we conclude than that there must be living an extreme bloodthirsty population.
Consequently it is becoming increasingly difficult and even virtually impossible to defend
the presence of Zionists in the Middle East. The country 'Israel' has become the very
opposite of the spiritual 'Israel', and as a consequence is not a Jewish state either.
Of course atheists will consider me to be mad, but people who are not afraid of thinking
will understand why I plead for a substantial increase in Jewish confidence, and for
more thourough, more in depth complying to the Jewish religion. It is more than welcome.
"Attack the Muslims, damn it!"
That is the message that appears everywhere on the internet frequently.
Unfortunately, Zionists
seem to be brainwashed. No matter how long we talk with
them, no matter how many listening ears we provide them, no matter how much
friendship we give them, it is no use. It is in vain. Their belief in anti-Muslimism as an
'indispensable' strategy to survive is as solid as concrete.
On the website of
Phara
in a debate about the clip of Stijn Meuris on the 'angry Jews', Nicole Nys tells Stijn Meuris
to ridicule the Muslims.
Marlène says Stijn Meuris makes her wanting to emigrate.
She suggests to mock the Arab European League for rightfully protesting against strong
anti-Muslimist statements.
The number of demands to turn the Muslims into the
scapegoat over and over again are countless. On the website of
Joods Actueel
that call is repeated. Under the title: "How it can be done otherwise' they print an excerpt
from 'Het Laatste Nieuws' (The Latest News) in which 5 on 6 reactions demand for the
persecution of Muslims. How many times do we have to repeat it? Racism is inexcusable
according to the Jewish religion.
Anti-Judaism, and anti-Muslimism are two faces of the
same evil. Anti-Judaism and anti-Muslimism are like two fruits from the same tree. If
you feed one, you feed the other too. Those Jews who push us to hate Muslims, will in the
end find the world hating them too. For the wellbeing of the Jewish people, please, stop
cultivating this sick anti-Muslimism.
Racists are NOT cool, dammit!
I repeat: "Racists are NOT sexy, dammit!"
What can we do to protect autodestructive people against themselves?
My struggle against racism began over six years ago, in the fall of 2002. It is rooted in
the impression the many documentaries on the second World War, and on the Holocaust,
had on me back in 1985. The many films I saw, and books I read about the persecution
of the Jewish people, had a profound effect on me. Even back in the early sixties when the
Nuns in the secundary school of Hoegaarden turned several films on how Catholic convents,
and priests saved Jewish children, my main thought was those children were children like
us. "Why did they have to die", was the question we asked the nuns. I remember sister
Catherine saying they needed to convert to be saved, and me as a thirteen yearold
thinking: "If that is all what is necessary to survive, I would have recognised Jesus. What
was so difficult on recognizing Jesus? I thought, I would have said anything they wanted
me to say, if only I could survive."
Of course I know now, it wasn't that simple, and probably sister Catherine did not
understand much about politics, either. Many baptised Jews were
killed. As Barak, and Livni, Hitler simply needed to sacrifice human beings to satisfy the
bloodthirsty population.
In any case, whether it happened during the second World
War, or today, when human lives barbarically are sacrificed, that has a tremendous
impact on me. No matter what label racists use to legitimise themselves, they disgust me.
They make me puke. I consider the injustice imposed on the Palestinians it to be an
offense to the 6 million who died in the Holocaust.
What can we do?
In how far people in the Jewish community today
think like I did in 1963, I do not know. However, I cannot shake the feeling there are many
people today, who believe, vilifying the Muslims is the only way to escape extermination.
The passion, and the energy with which I have defended the Muslims these past six
years, was aroused by the horendous plight of our Jews. I needed to avoid a reduncancy.
In November of 2002 suddenly it was, as if I found myself back in the thirties of the previous
century. The 'Jew' of the moment was Dyab Abou Jahjah, and right under my eyes I saw
our politicians turn mad. It was so shocking I was left speechless for several days.
In any case, contrary to my expectations, these last six years I have seen a
reappearance of all the anti-Jewish stereotypes, but with the word 'Jew' replaced by Muslim.
It took me
a long time to understand what was going on, and I was completely flabbergasted when I
found out, that the main source of anti-Muslimism was to be found in, or around our Jewish
community.
When on the VRT-journal a pharmacist from the Jewish community
was interviewed, and she said the Muslims were out to
dominate the world I was astonished. How could a woman, in whom our society had
invested so much, make such foolish, racist statements? Could the Jewish people
turn into its worst ennemy? It took me a long time to process, and understand. Even today
I still can't figure the problem out entirely.
We fool ourself by thinking we learn
from history. The fact is we learn very little. Time and again we need to unmask the evil
that seduces us in ever changing concealments. This proves the holy books were right
after all, and if we care about each other, we should do everything we can to avoid further
bloodshed.
We participate in the process
Until way into 2004 my idea of Jews was, their moral standards were higher than
average. Only when at one moment a person, I considered to belong to the
Flemish far right, appeared to be a Jew, I began seeing the distinction between the
Flemish far right, and their Jewish conspirors.
I am deeply saddened to see the Zionist state to a large extend destroyed
the genuine Jewish spiritual quality. In
Black Flag Uri Avnery
explains how the beautiful Jewish religion is distorted to something despicable by Zionists.
However, honesty demands I also talk about the effects persecution has on people.
Nobody is ever alone in this problem. When a butterfly moves his wings in Egypt, it
will be felt here too, or otherwise. People who are persecuted develop ways to survive,
that are not always kosher. That does not make Jews different from other people.
In the dominant majority I came across these survival strategies too.
Full integration of our Jews into the society at large would benefit us all. It would help if
we would think about the myths and prejudices that put ourselves above all others, and
reject them. However, the effects of our struggle against anti-Semitism are disturbed,
and limited, as long as people from the Jewish community, join forces with the far right,
and keep pressing us to hate Muslims.
All I can do right now is repeat over and oaver that anti-Muslimism works like a boomerang. It is already hurting the Jewish people. Who is winning this conflict. The Zionists say they won. What thriumph is there in killing huge numbers of people, when it costs you your soul? More Palestinian blood has been spilled, most Palestinians are homeless, but the damage to the Jewish soul is far more serious. In the end, losing your soul is worse than losing your life. What is the worth of life, when your soul is destroyed?
Friday, January 30, 2009
As Europeans we have a moral duty towards our Jews.
Selling ones soul versus opening one's heart
That there are politicians who endorse the 'Israeli' propaganda out of sheer
opportunism, is not unusual. How many politicians do not sell their soul for a few votes?
Bert Anciaux
is a rare politician who folows his heart, and feelings of compassion rather than worrying
about his seat. Yet, he is the one who is attacked by the 'Israeli' government.
Anciaux is the one who genuinely cares about the Jewish people, a group who, unfortunately,
behaves totally contrary to the religion they form a community around. From a
spiritual perspective Anciaux has more Jewishness in his heart than many of the people
who walk around in Antwerp with a yarmulke on their heads, and growing peyot, or
sidelocks. Rabbi Weiss has
beautiful sidelocks, and it is worthwhile to listen to him. He explains very clear, and
comprehensible what the 'Israeli' problem actually is about. From the spiritual viewpoint
Bert Anciaux is closer to Rabbi Weiss than Michael Freilich.
Professional deceit
That a 'professor international law' supports this text, says something about the condition our judicial systhem is in. Luckily there is more to International Law than Marc Cogen. The Bush quagmire almost destroyed the planet, and while Obama gives us new hopes, we are not out of the woods yet. And however the quality of the leadership in the White House has improved, the road still will be long, and the climb will continue to be steep for quite some time. This is not the first time Marc Cogen bends the right to the wrong. In 2003 he supported the war in Iraq for dubious reasons, no righteous human being could agree with. I am ashemed for my country that such an immoral person is teaching our youngsters 'International Law'. So, at the end of the day, for the Jewish people it is not an asset they have Marc Cogen in their corner.
Kissing the devil
Jurgen Verstrepen is in fact the one politician who is the most representative for how far that Antwerp 'Jewish' group has aberrated. Until recently he was a member of the far right fascist party VB, the heirs of the ideology that killed loved ones in every Jewish family in this country. It may be part of a strategy to survive that people, who consider themselves to be 'Jewish' socialized with their worst enemies. Displaying 'loyalty' to that dispicable group, and its disgusting way of thinking also may be part of a strategy to survive in an hostile environment. Antwerp has a culture that is distinctly different from the rest of Flanders. The Antwerp fascists voluntarily 'offered' the Nazis 300 fellow citizens more than asked for. These circumstances influence the people, make them disintegrate into totally opposite fractions. To keep safe their faithfulness to their religion, they need to display the opposite.
To make sure that it cannot be my intention to alienate our Jews from the rest of us, I will add here the story of what I lived myself as a youngster. At school in my class we had this girl who from the age of 12 dominated the group by gossiping, inciting hostility, and keeping close a small amount of 'allies', read slaves, she could control easily. When at the age of forty I organised a reunionparty, I was surprised so many old classmates while recalling reminiscences of the years we spent together.
That Benno Barnard signed the text, was expectable. He is one of the more outspoken examples of people for whom Zionism has replaced Judaims as a system of belief. While Michael Freilich still tries to include G-d in the equation, Benno Barnard could not care less. Yet it is worrysome that many 'Jews' so called 'pray' several times a day, but at the same time support an ideology that is the epitome of un-Jewishness. This gives me a déjà vue feeling. How many times I have been wondering why there was such a huge difference between what was said about life in church, and life outside the gate of the graveyard, I cannot tell. Throughout my childhood that inconsequence has been puzzling me constantly. Never before that antagonism became so shockingly clear as during the Gaza war.
Wednesday, January 21, 2009
Whatever I write, there always will be something missing. That is what being human is about, we always have only part of the picture. It is as good as it gets.
We are all unique, but yet so similar
That among the Jewish people there are many people who are easily scared when there is critic of the Israeli government, and of a majority of the 'Jews' living in Israel is only logic. I cannot tell how I would react if my family would have been killed, I can only try to understand. What I can see is that in the same families people evolve in a different way. While one Jew can be totally healed, his brother, or cousin can be severely damaged. This is the way it works in most families. We all proces what happens to us, in a different way. Our perception of reality even differs. The fact that one of my best friends has lost almost his entire family in the holocaust brings it all a little closer to me, but yet not too close to lose sight.
To know the world, we can look inside of us
When I was a teenager I refused to accept I had an evil obscure side. The adults,
among them priests and nuns, already projected more than enough evil in us, 'the youth
of these days'. 'These days' for me being the late sixties.
So, if it
is too hard to digest for most Jews, when objective observation reveals they can turn into
their worst ennemy too, I can understand that. However, I don't think wild accusations of
'anti-Semitism' in all directions are going to make the truth go away. The Torah, written
thousands of years ago, already tells us about the duality of being human. So, it is hard
to ignore that. The Torah also tells us we need to think, and we need to think hard. The
only explanation why people reject the holy books, is their fear for their inner demons.
We are all alike, we all face these problems. The best thing we can do, is being lenient
with ourselves. Maybe then we will be able to be lenient with others too, and accept
making mistakes is part of being human.
The key is in the intentions
The mere observation that many Jews behave like nazis is not meant to vilify the
Jewish people as a whole. You always need to look at what the intentions of people are.
What are the obstacles that need to be remover in order to bring peace in the ME? One
of the main obstacles is, a lot of European Jews simply were Europeans, were conditioned
by life in Europe, had incorporated a lot of our silly anti-Semitic dogmas. We never have
a total control on our culture. I discover more silly dogmas every week. Last week I decided
to stop using the term 'moron' because it may be rooted in anti-Semitism.
We
cannot expect from each other to be perfect. Our whole life is a constant struggle to
improve ourselves. There is no idea that cannot be used as a tool to express hatred.
He/she who needs to hate most likely will use G-d, and holy symbols to achieve his/her
goals, because they are the most powerful.
An example
Attentive reading of the stories about Jesus reveal, they were meant for the preservation
of Judaism. Yet, most of the time in history it was used as a tool for the opposite.
What I missed yesterday in the prayer during the inauguration of Obama was
in the row of the names of deities, the name Jehuda was missing. The spiritual expert
mentioned: "... in the name of the One who changed my life, Yeshua, Isa, Jesus", but he
failed to mention 'Jehuda', which is another name for the same 'One who changed our lives'.
We have lost the meaning of
the Christian metaphors a very long time ago, and the actual boss of the Vatican is not
ready to allow any return to the truth. But do we need to allow it to depend on him
to find our way to the truth, and therefore to G-d, again? I don't think so.
Each of us has his/her own responsibility
As the Islamic prophet said, we have our own responsibility towards G-d. Moreover, when things got rough during the second World War, the big boss with all his might, and claims he was 'the representative of G-d on earth', and we should obey him like small children, kept silent. He only rose his voice when his symbols, bells, and buildings were under threat. For people he did not care. Yet to this very day the Vatican keeps pushing the blame in the shoes of the small believers. I don't believe G-d wants us to take such a man as an example. I would rather take the writer of the book: "Pius XII, and the annihilation of the Jews", as an example. In any case, Dirk Verhofstadt made a clear and distinct contribution to making this world a better place by writing the book. I believe anyone of us as a responsibility to contribute to his or her best abilities to make this world a better place.
We all are only human beings
Yes, sometimes Jews think the way the nazis did. For example:
depicting Hamas as
terrorists. Many examples can be found on the blog of Joods Actueel.
At the same time
we also need to remember Michael Freilich wrote an article about Sderot that is
remarkable, and audaciously compassionate for a Jewish Antwerper. Maybe the fact that in
Antwerp Jews were hurt more severely than in other places explains a lot about the way
people react in that city. In Antwerp
Jews were not safe from their own neighbours. The Antwerp police handed over 300 more
Jews to the Nazis than asked for. The culture of that city is something that has an effect
on people that cannot be ignored. There may be a long
road ahead of us, the climb may be steep, but it is not hopeless. People can think, have
the freedom to take their own decisions. They have the ability to change their ways of
thinking for the better.
A game of billiard
Whenever I observe this conflict in the ME, it makes me think about the green billiard table. For some reason our ball collected energy, rolled, clashed with the Jewish ball, and gave our energy to them. They roll, and clash with the Palestinians, and Muslims, who eventually will be sent back by the edge of the table, and clash with the Jews again, or others ...
Times have changed. Except for a few minor incidents, people have the liberty to
be themselves, today. The Zionist propaganda was structured on an anti-Semitic culture. It is
time to engage in the reconstruction of the true Israel, based on the values of this
liberal society. In other words, back to where Judaism, and Islam come together, is were
we need to head to.
A lot of compassion will be needed, and at the same time sense for reality. If we want to
stop the ongoing bloodshed, if we want to stop the suffering of the Palestinians, and if we
want to avoid the Jewish people to gets crushed between the millstones of history, we need to
recognize our responsibilities. We all need to.
Apparently it took more than three days for the reconstruction after all ;-)

Highlight
Yesterday, Phara managed to accomplish what in due time probably will be the highlight or her career. Her guests were: Ramsi Nasr, Rik Coolsaet, and for the Jewish community the young and telegenic Michael Freilich, with yarmulke. What people don't know about Freilich, is that he is one of the people in the Jewish community, who are inclined the most to loving the truth and justice above all. However, when he is invited to represent the Jewish community in the media, people in his peer group expect him to reproduce the worn out Zionist propaganda, as the reactions on the 'Joods Actueel'-weblog show. For us, as viewers the confusing thing is, Michael Freilich, while showing to the world he cares for the Jewish religion by wearing a yarmulke, he reproduces a rhetoric that quintessentially represents the opposite.
Worn out
Over the years I have been demasquing the mantras of the Zionist propaganda
many times. But for reasons I cannot grasp the Zionist 'Jews' keep holding on to these
worn out, totally bizar 'arguments', refusing to cross the threshold to rational thinking, as
if that would open the gates to hell.
Although it is considered to be blasphemy, the resemblance between the Zionist
propaganda, and the anti-Jewish propaganda of the Nazis is stunning.
If we ignore
the truth, we cannot think about it. There is a clear difference between rational thinking
and believing myths, prejudices, mantras of a demonisation ideology. We need to be
able to ask questions that may be inconvenient, but at the same time we also need to
do everything we can to protect people caught in destructive psychological dynamics.
This is not an easy thing to do.
It's only a matter of psychological dynamics
Why on earth do almost all 'Jews' in Europe and Israel engage in the psychological dynamics their parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc ... have been killed by? What is sucking the hope out of me, is the total blindness of most people of the Jewish community for their own responsibilities, and their own racism. What is even more worrysome, is, if their views are not obediently accepted, and embraced, they cut all ties with society. Anyone who does not accept their propaganda is an anti-Semite, a traitor, Jewhater, and so on. They also ban you from their forum.
Will more attention help?
Can this phenomenon be explained by the fact there never was enough attention
for them to process the wrong that has been done to them? The fact that many Jews
have been welcomed as journalists in the media does contradict that.
For a long
time I have refused to see the Jewish Belgians as other Belgians than the rest of us, but
the vision that they were different was forced on me by them. I still am convinced that
all people are equal, and that we have the problems with being human in common.
However, it is becoming hard to find answers in myself for this problem ... Except, I
never managed to lure my own 80-yearold father out of his anti-everything attitude.
Ignoring the legitimate demands of the Palestinians is not an option
But losing hope is not an option. We need to keep looking for ways out of the quagmire we are in. The strategy of the Zionists to divert the attention to some other problem in the world, to excuse the crimes of the Zionist state, has worn out. We focus on 'Israel' because we care for people, for the Palestinians, and for the Jews. Yes, lets pay some attention to the stove-pipes filled with explosives Hamas fires at 'Israel'. Why do the Zionist always refuse to answer the question: "Why are those people sending these stove-pipes?" "Why do the Zionist always come up with the lame excuse Hamas is a terrorist organisation?" If Hamas is a terrorist organisation then our European Jews during the second World War also were 'terrorists'. It is the aggressor who is the terrorist, and not the victim. If Hamas is a terrorist organisation then my grandfather was a terrorist too during WW2. He was a member of the Boerenbond he joined the Nationale Koninklijke Beweging to defend this country. The people mainly thought about getting the occupiers out.
Why do people cling on so desperately to an outdated strategy?
Another explanation may the choice for the Zionist propaganda may be Jews grew up in the same culture, in which destructiveness playes an important role. Maybe, due to their role as victims, the impuls to rethink the culture of demonisation, and rejection of the other did not get as much chances, maybe the guilt of the responsible party had an effect the Jewish people, due to circumstances misses.
We need to see our good intentions don't work backwards
We have learned we need to show compassion, but if we show compassion for the Palestinians we are labelled 'anti-Semites' by the Zionist Jews. In the same logic as they use Hitler was right, and Pope Pius XII did the right thing by not caring about the Jewish people. The Zionists urgently need to think about the Golden Rule, that according to Hillel is the core of Judaism.
Damaged trust
Recently, I have been pleeing for the 'Jews' to become genuine Jews again. But since 2000 years of persecution has lead to the total damage of the trust in the world, there is a huge possibility whatever we propose will be seen as a plot to lure them back to Auschwitz. For many people there is this certainty a 'gentile' - weird word - can only be out to destroy them. In the meantime on the weblog of Joods Actueel the Zionist propaganda is going on. There is little indication there ever will come a moment when those people will think. As long as any attempt to solve the problems in a righteous way is seen as evil, hypocrit, 'opportunist', and wrong, I think we will remain caught in a total impasse
The mistake I make over and over again is that I fail to see people talk about themselves, when they talk about someone 'other'. I did not understand the Zionists when they said there was 'nobody to talk to'. Today, more than before, I feel where there is nobody to talk to. It hurts.

The capacity to fool people is wearing thin
Zionists in Antwerp may be able to fool a busy politician like Ludo Van Campenhout, who simpy repeats the tenets of the Zionist propaganda, without thinking. Probably the man has no time to think, no time to seek things out, and as a consequence has himself mislead. But we also see that at the end of the day, he has the heart in the right place, and does not really want to violate the rights of the Palestinians. Van Campenhout is a good person who recognises the Palestinians have the right on a decent life.
If Van Campenhout knew the truth, I am sure he would talk otherwise. If Van Campenhout would look a little more closer, more attentive, he would see he is fooled, and the Jewish community in Antwerp is not as well balanced as he thinks. Ludo Van Campenhout should know he has a huge responsibility towards the Jewish community in his city, but that responsibility DOES NOT INCLUDE THE SUPPORT OF LIES about Muslims, it does not include the incitement of hatred towards Muslims. It does include making the 'Jews' in his city feel comfortable.
Van Campenhout should engage in the joint effort of all people to fight anti-Semitism in all it's forms. Van Campenhout should know that if he supports anti-Muslimism that he feeds anti-Judaism too. Van Campenhout should know that by having himself pulling a the Zionist waggon, he is lead somewhere his heart does not want to go. Ludo Van Campenhout should think. Does he want to do to the Palestinians the same that has been done to our Jews in the past?
It is not easy to keep the balance, and it would be very unfair to blame our 'Jews' for the ticklish situation they are in. We bear a huge responsibility. Making the right choices is difficult. People sometimes drag us into devious thinking-patterns in very sly ways, appealing on the compassion we so eagerly want to show. We need to show compassion, we need to keep our hearts open, but we should not have our good intentions abused for the wrong.
At the end of the day, engaging in anti-Muslimism will not making our Jews feel better.
It always is a twisted way of support, because when push comes to shovel Islam is the
synthesis of Judaism and Christendom, in which the dignity of Judaism is restored.
Ultimately in the rejection of Islam, and Muslims, Jews are rejected too.
So, Mr. Van Campenhout, if you want to embrace the Jewish people of Antwerp,
think not only twice, but a thousand times. Wanting to embrace the Jewish people is a
noble thing, but when you do it, do it wisely.

L'enfer, c'est les autres
Since I have been cencured from the Zionist blog, disguised as 'Joods Actueel', and from the forum of their far right comrade-in-arms, Politics.be, even though my remarks were very careful, I need to look for other channels for my right on freedom of speech. It is remarkable that while these people are on the first row to scream there cannot be any limit to the freedom of speech, when it comes to insulting, and vilify the Muslims, they don't even tolerate the faintest empathy with Muslims, in particular the Palestinians, and those who are telling the truth. It never became so obvious as these last few weeks. All we need to do to find the truth, is looking the other way, looking at those who tell us bizar things, like 'Israel' had no choice but to attack Gaza. When Zionists tell us something about their opponents, they are actually talking about themselves. 'L'enfer, c'est les autres', seems to be the core of the Zionist propaganda.
A difficult position
I care about the Jewish people, and I have a lot of proof for that. Therefore I need to emphasize caring for the Jewish people DOES NOT MEAN hating Palestinians. By reading only three to five pages in 'Pius XII, and the annihilation of the Jews' a day, the book really has an important effect on me. I don't want to be part of the repeating of the mistakes of Pius XII. We are in a difficult position right now. We need to see to the deprogramming of anti-Semitism in our culture. To avoid further evil mistakes, it is imperative we do so.
The big trouble ever since I joined the struggle against racism, is my main opponents
were decendants of people who had suffered horrendously during the holocaust. While on
one hand I feel deeply for the victims of the war, among them those who banned me from
the 'Joods Actueel'-blog, I need to denounce the crimes of the Zionist government. For
the sake of Judaism, for the sake of the Jewish people, we need to make the clear distinction
between Zionists and Jews. That to a certain extend it is not easy for those who lost
loved ones in the holocaust, we need to underBan Ki Moon is outraged. This is getting crazier by the day. Olmert, Barack, Livni, and their followers, are in some sort of psychological dynamic that we have seen when Hitler was in power. stand. We need to grant them empathy,
we need to be there for them to help them process the wounds of the past, but we
cannot support them when they engage in the development of the wounds of the
future.
Caring about the Jewish people means, caring for the Palestinians too.
Caring for the Jewish people means, respecting their religion, and culture in Islam too.
Any remake of the old anti-Semitic hateculture should be avoided. As human beings
we have the capacity to think, and we should use it. It is our duty. It is our responsibility
as free people.
Don't use the golden rule as toilet paper!
If we do care about the people who are living in Israel, we need to explain to them
the difference between right and wrong. We have seen people in the Zionist state, who
consider themselves to be 'Jewish', but painting swastikas on synagogues. I remember
the person who participated in the debate under the pseudonym 'Francine'. While that
person, over the years never stopped repeating the Zionist anti-Muslimism over and over
again, at some point she was so kind to explain to us Hillel could summarise Judaism in
one line.
Hillel was a Jewish religious leader, which means he
was actually an expert in the domain of law, in the way we conceive our world today.
He lived from around 50 BCE until 10 CE. So if the 'Jesus-figure' was actually one person,
that man must have known Hillel. He was a descendant from King David, and the
founder of one of the most famous Jewish schools, the 'House of Hillel'. He is associated
with the development of the Mishnah, and the Talmud, and the founder of a dynasty of
sages Sages who stood at the head of the Jews, living in 'the land of Israel', today the
land of the Zionists, until roughly the fifth century.
Hillel is known for two important sayings: "If I am not for myself, who will be for me? And when I am for myself, what am 'I'? And if not now, when?" and the expression of the ethic of reciprocity we know as the "Golden Rule": "That which is hateful to you, do not do to your fellow. That is the whole Torah, the rest is the explanation, go and learn."
Do we have a choice?
The stunning thing is that this person, who claimed she was 'Jewish', at one hand very
well knew the Golden Rule, but on the far right forum was one of the most active inciters
of hatred towards Muslims, along with other people with a distinct Zionist inclination.
Is that what one needs to do, when one is hurt? Is there no
other way to deal with the wounds of the holocaust? Does one need to turn into the
killer of one's grandparents, and other kin, in order to survive? Is there no other way?
There is another way. Norman Finkelstein proves it, and many other righteous Jews
prove it too. 77% of the American Jews voted for Obama, despite he has been vilified by
the Zionist extremists. I know for a fact for example, that in one family there is a Zionist
extremist, a follower of Meir Kahane, a man used to use all the abusive language that
was commonly used by Nazis when they spoke to, and about Jews, except he replaces Jew
by Muslim. On the other hand there is someone who thinks like me, looks for answers
and solutions in the Jewish religion, believes in empathy. The empathic one was attacked
aggressively by, among others, his Zionist extremist cousin, and he does not look
happy with that. This conflict even tears families appart. It must be clear that
targeting the empathic Jew, would only satisfy the Zionist extremist.
People
have a choice, and we need to help them to make the right choice. We need to make
clear to Mrs. Clinton that we expect morally high quality solutions. With more smart
deception she cannot have a deal.
Unhealed wounds
On the blog of 'Joods Actueel' (Zionist Actueel would be a more appropriate name) an anonymous person, whose style seems familiar, wrote the smile of a young girl carrying a display panel saying: "Gaza = Ghetto of Warsaw" was disgusting. Because of the style, and way of reasoning I suspect someone behind this, who is a victim of the second World War, but one can never be sure of that, when it is posted anonymous. It is a lot easier to feel for someone, for what he has been through, when we know the people as real human beings from flesh and blood, and when they talk to us about what happened to them, and how hurtful it was. Of course honesty obliges us to admit not many people have the strength, nor the capacity to comfort their fellowmen, in distress, which may explain why so many people are running around with unhealed wounds. If only we could make people feel comfortable to the extend where they can feel enough confidence to leave their positions of total denial of the Zionist responsibility, we would be a step closer to peace in the Middle East.
Gaza = Ghetto of Warsaw
The smile of the girl is beautiful, and what her display panel says is the truth. Gaza is today's Ghetto of Warsaw. In defending their right on justice Palestinians, and people who feel for the Palestinians have no intentions of badgering Jews. They only want people to open their eyes, see that what is going on in Gaza is the continuation of the holocaust, and this needs to stop. Wherever I go on the internet, or the website of the Haaretz, or filmsfragments on youtube, there always are extremely heartless reactions of people who support the Zionist state beneath it. Even beneath the beautiful song of these two young ladies. Instead of denying the truth, it would be better if these people would try to comfort each other, instead of tearing their wounds open, over and over again. Our Jews were killed because Hitler was in dire need for popular support. Why do we turn a blured eye to the fact Hitler gained 44% of the votes on the basis of hatred for Jews? His opponents made mistakes, but with 44% of the votes there wasn't much they could do. Besides that they were not interested in our Jews either, they were mostly Jew haters too.
How can we improve the way we relate to our Jews?
What worries me on a daily basis is that, while they can make clear analysises of the Christian anti-Semitism, many of our 'Jews' fail to see they are doing the same to the Muslims. For example by feeding us that 'the struggle against 'Israel' is a struggle against The Netherlands, and Europe. The Flemish far right party Vlaams Belang is a disgusting party, they represent the Flemish fascists, and this society rightfully fights them. But if the VB would write a thousandst of what our so called 'Jews' write, they would be prosecuted legally. We are deliberately handling double standards, allow our Jews a lot more than anyone else. But aren't we entitled to a little hope that all the efforts we do, are not in vain? And are our Jews benefitting from this double standards? I love my children very much, but that does not mean I would have accepted it if they would have taken drugs. The question is, how can we improve the way we relate to our Jews?
Too little courageous people
In his second point, the anonymous poster has a good point where he says Jews got no help while the holocaust was taking place. That is the painful truth. I am terribly annoyed by the fact that the plight of our Jews only was covered in the margin of what great heroes 'we' were in the many books, and films about how Jews were saved. We need to praise the courage of the people who saved Jews, putting their own lives at risk, but the big trouble is there are too little courageous people. I am trying to see the viewpoint of Anonymous against this background, because I think that is necessary to end this quagmire. If we, as non-Jewish Europeans, fail to clearly take our responsibility in this matter, it will be too heavy a burden on the shoulders of our Jews to take account on their responsibility. We need to reach out to them with a helping hand, but without supporting the crimes towards the Palestinians.
Where was that international community when the Jews were starved?
Anonymous writes: "Where was that international community when the Jews were
starved to death, when they were crammed like chicken into too little space?" I know a
lot more about what has been done to our Jews, I read, among others: Primo Levi, and
Shlomo Venezia. Would it help our Jews if I created a seperate page to discuss the
information those books provide?
The international community, every single one
of us, Europeans, is indebted towards the Jewish people. Saying 'Wir haben es nicht gewust',
is no excuse. We are obliged to think. It is our duty to know.
The debt is huge
The debt is huge enough as it is. When we
support the continuation of the deviation of the anger, the negative energy that was
generated here, in this society, towards the Palestinians, we would only increase our debt.
a young girl - and sometimes young unspoiled people see things more clear than we do -
said revenge was a factor in the actual conflict. How else can we understand the
heartless remarks beneath
Diana Buttu's explantions? By the way, she is telling the truth, and we have
confirmation of that from Gush
Shalom We should never lose our focus on the truth. Contrary to what some people
believe the Jewish people has nothing to gain from deception.
This is a very complex
situation, and keeping the right balance is extremely difficult. The Palestinians are in dire
need of our attention. It is the right thing to give them our support. At the same time
this very old film,
"Ladri di biciclette", kept
popping up in my head. When we, the dominant majority, were committing crimes of
racism, we
closed our hearts in every possible ways to our Jews, but now they do the same, we all
of a sudden have learned to think, suddenly we know the distinction between right and
wrong, we failed for 2000 years.
Where was the international press when the Jews needed them?
Anonymous writes: "When the Jews in the ghetto of Warsaw were killed, there was no press from any country that cared. The press was indifferent to the well planed, grinding to dust and ashes of Jews, on an industrial scale. Even the many alarming reporst on how Jews were killed in the extermination camps, were not believed, and discarted as 'sensation', and hostile 'propaganda'. Anonymous asks: "Where were the hundredthousands demonstrators when the Jews were killed? These are all valid questions that never got enough attention. But inflicting on the people of Gaza the same evil does not make the evil of the past right. In order to pay our debts towards our Jews we need to do other things. We need to create space to heal. One maybe lousy idea may be, hanging a poster of Hitler, surrounded with names of other notorious anti-Semites at the wall and throw shoes at it. But that is a too small rag for the bleeding. More comprehension is urgently needed.
The wounds are deep
Where was the international press when the Jews in Warsaw were slaughtered", anonymous repeats, and he goes on: "When in Warsaw on April 19 1973 Jews started their uprising against the SS, they only had a few handmade molotov-coctails, old, rusty handweapons they bought for too much money from the Polish resistance, one machine-gun and a lot of courage and motivation. In fact the fight was lost in advance. Whether it would be in the ghetto, of in Auschwitz, they would die anyway. Where were the friends of the Jews, the befriended nations that provided the Jews with weapons? They did not even offer us military support, nor supplies." Of course Anonymous askes the right questions, but then repeating the same mistakes, would only make matters worse. The anti-Semitic mill need to stop. Revenge on the Palestinians is not the solution. Today there were standing Haredi Jews on the Hill of Shame, watching the bombing of Gaza. How on earth can people who believe in G-d legitimise murder? Didn't they read the stories of Abraham? Seeing the there as disaster tourists has something surreal. The the Christians are not the only ones who forgot to understand their religion, and commited crimes against humanity out of sheer stupidity. No matter how stubborn the Pope may be, the narrative about Jesus was meant for the survival of Judaism, not to eradicate them.
No place to go
Anonymous furhtermore says: "When in Warsaw the Jews were murdered, they had no place to go. All countries
closed their borders, or only accepted small numbers. The Evian Conference was a total
disaster, and a complete shame. During the holocausts the UK, and the US closed their
borders, and allowed only few refugees. While Jews had no place to go, and the nazis were
killing them, the British allowed only 15.000 Jews in the first year, and only 10.000 the
following years into Palestine.
Jewish refugees who crossed the Belgian border, were driven back manu
militare into the hands of their butchers."
That is of course all true, and there has
been payed too little attention to what happened to our Jews. The egocentric ways that
was dealt with the plight of our Jews, the lack of attention, the lack of compassion may be
at the basis of the totally irrational behaviour of the Israeli Jews, and the majority of our
Jews. When Zionism, and people dressed like Jews, flow into each other on our TV-screens,
it is becoming very heard to save the Jewish people from the blame the Zionist
government is making them share in. But no matter what mistakes 'Jews' make, their
feelings of abandonment should not be increased. However, it is not easy. Seeing the
hate drip out of the Joods Actueel-blog depresses me. I need to take a good breath,
clear my brain, drink something, and go on.
Jealousy is autodestructive
Anonymous is bothered by the fact that Hisbullah-leaders were received in the
Parliament. What is he complaining about? Didn't I see a gentleman of the Joods
Actueel-club there too? All the people were very correct, except for Joel Rubinfeld. He
projected the Zionist character into the Palestinians. When he was elected president of
CCOJB Rubinfeld declared he would make the struggle against anti-Semitism, and racism
his priority, but apparently his own racism he forgot.
Coexisting peacefully is
not possible without respecting the golden rule. It works both ways. We need to respect
the Jews, but they owe respect to their fellowmen, the Muslims, too.
The revival of anti-Semitism
"Art softens the morality", people say, but lately we noticed that this is an illusion.
Second rate stand-up comedians like Philippe Geubels, Alex Agnew make racist 'jokes'
about Jews and Maroccans. Comedy with quality is the kind we saw when Geert Hoste
made an appreciative joke about prince Philippe. Unfortunately, in Flanders when you
are not qualified for anything, but speaks Antwerp, and are a racist, you will be a success
as a stand-up comedian. Having a British name is another very valuable asset.
The racism in stand-up comedy is of course like the indicator of the level of fascism
in society as a whole. The sad thing is that the most active people in the cultivation of
anti-Muslimism in this country were Zionist 'Jews', not understanding that by doing so
they themselves cultivated the aversion towards their own culture, and therefore also for
them. As I said before we have anti-Semitism when the connection between the hatred
and the way the hated behave is loose, or non existent. When it comes to anti-Muslimism
the resistance of the Palestinians in no way explains the reactions of the Zionists/'jews'.
All I can do is ask: "Please, stop doing that to yourself!" No matter what the problems are
there cannot be an excuse for the anti-Muslimism by anyone, including by Zionist/'jews'.

A long time ago, when Kissinger was secretary of state for the US, he traveled to
Israel. Golda Meir and Moshe Dayan gave him the tour of Jerusalem. When they came
at the Wailing Wall, Kissinger saw all the people praying there, and asked: "What are those
people doing?" Moshe Dayan and Golda Meir looked at each other in surprise.
A 'Jew' who did
not know what the Wailing Wall was ... Golda said: "Well, It is a holy wall. The people ask
G-d to make their
wishes come trough. You can do that too, if you like. It works" Kissinger went closer to
the wall, took an
American attitude, looked up at the sky, and said: "Well, if you can make them return those
occupied territories to the Palestinians, that would be a hell of a favour."
Moshe Dayan was looking at Golda Meir terrified. She waved his worries away, and said
to him: "Don't worry, he is only talking to a wall."
Walls
It is the feeling I often have, that people are like that wall. It is as if we were
surrounded by walls that separate us from each other. Nothing ever really changes.
Today in 'Soeterbeeck' I heard the female Rabbi Tamarah Benima. A Rabbi is someone
who had 5 years of intensive theological training. Apparently it did not work for Mrs.
Benima. From a Rabbi, I expect he or she knows the difference between right and wrong.
The lady was very disappointing. She didn't say anything about the Jewish religion.
She only repeated the same old coldhearted Zionist propaganda.
a) Hamas is to blame. It sounds like a dogma. The bombs have a deviation range of
30 meters. If that is so, the IDF should not use those bombs in densely populated
areas. But that she ignored. She did not explicitely say she did not like the Muslims, but the
expression on her face said it all.
b) Also as usual she said we had to look to other places, like Congo this time.
c) They always repeat Hamas needs to recognise 'Israel', but they fail to say that
'Israel' is not Israel.
What Zionist do not tell us ...
What Zionist even
deny is they actually turned the Star of David into a swastika.
But at the same time these people turn a blind eye to their own behaviour, and push all
blame in someone elses shoes.
The problem with the Zionist state is Zionist, so called 'Jewish' politicians, who know nothing
about Judaism, need to kill Palestinians to gain popular support. That is why Hitler killed
our Jews too, for popular support.
The Zionist state is unacceptable for the Palestinians because there are too much of
these kind of people, cruel, icy hearted people, who enjoy bloodshed. The Zionist state is unacceptable because too many people
living there, are
so full of hatred like Avigdor Lieberman. The Zionist state is unacceptable for the
Palestinians because there is nothing left of Judaism there. Even the
pious Jews get molested by
Zionists. This man tells clearly what the Zionist state is about.
An unkosher Rabbi
She was angry at a certain bishop Martino who compared the fate of the Palestinians with the fate of the Jews during the second WW. They always say it is different because the scale is not the same, which is of course a fraud. The suffering of the Palestinians is happening right now, the reasons why it is happening are similar. Hitler was seeking popularity. Barak and Livni are seeking popularity. In the Torah Abraham, the archfather proposed to sacrifice sheep, instead of people. Nor Barak, nor Livni ever seem to have read that chapter. There is indeed a holocaust going on right now in Gaza, and we need to call the aggressor to stop that.
The weathercock
The other guest, Bodar, priests, and weathercock apparently. The man who showed
reluctance concerning the responsibility of the Vatican, when Dirk Verhofstadt
was interviewed about his book, now nodded whatever Mrs. Benima said.
It took us
a holocaust to learn we should not engage in anti-Semitism, we should not have ourselves
draged into another one. No matter how high our feelings of guilt to the Jewish people are,
we should not have ourselves draged into the next horrendous crime. Crimes against
the Palestinians are crimes against Judaism, and against the Jewish people too.
The other Rabbi
Todays Rabbi was very different from Rabbi Marianne Van Praag, who was interviewed in 'Het Vermoeden' on Saturday. Marianne Van Praag participates in the interreligious dialogue, which she considers to be very important. She has an open heart, does not close her eyes for the many similarities between Judaism, and Islam. She intends to reconstruct the world, recollect the divine light, that has been dispersed, again. People like Marianne Van Praag are the people the Palestinians have no problem with.
Love for Israel, what does it mean?
Issakhar Dov Rokeah (1854-1927) wrote: Love for Israel is not the motivation of the
Zionists. They simply want to free themselves from the yoke of the Torah and the mitswot,
they want to eradicate all moral limits. The Zionists enter the land of 'Israel', kick the Torah
out, and misbehave. Is that what they mean by 'love for Israel'?
Love for Israel is connected to love for G-d, and love for the Torah. These two
elements are undevidable.

Why so little people were able to understand they needed to defend the Jews before, and during the second WW? Why did Pius XII keep quite?
Maybe part of the failure of Pius XII can be understood by looking at our behaviour.
How well do we understand the Palestinians? Why do we ignore clear explanations by
the people who provide us accurate information, such as Dyab Abou Jahjah
and inside 'Israel', Uri Avnery, Gush Shalom, Norman Finkelstein, Ilan
Pappe? Why are all the genuine Jews, who conquer my heart on the spot, always labbeled
'traitors' by the Zionists? Aren't we doing the
same Pius, and many other people did? Isn't equating the occupier with the resistant,
similar to what the Nazis did, when they claimed the Jews were out to submit the world?
I think we, the people who are not in the eye of the storm need to think as hard as we
can to help the people on the ground out of this endless quagmire.
The Zionist propaganda is outdated
The Zionist propaganda was developed in a world largely hostile towards Jews. Even
after the war, in 1946 in Poland many tenthousands of Jews were killed by foolish Polish,
blinded by the propaganda of the Catholic Church. That situation changed. The church
needs to do more, needs to take further stepts, but in the meantime we also need to
recognize that, when it comes to the Jewish side, anti-Semitism diminished. Contrary to
what 'Jews' claim, the emotional outbursts in Brussel and Antwerp are not acts of
anti-Semitism. Anti-Semitism is about irrational hatred, is about hatred that has nothing
to do with the person, or group the hatred is directed to.
If the logic those people who
say the emotional outbursts in Antwerp en Brussels are acts of anti-Semitism, were valid,
then that would mean Hitler killed our Jews for a reason. That is not true. Our Jews were
killed for no reason at all, except our extreme stupidity. The narrative about Jesus was
meant for the survival of Judaism. I refer to the Christian festival of Easter. The idea that
'Jesus' would rebuilt 'this temple' in three days, means, no matter how brutal the Romans
were, Judaism would re-emerge in no time. 'Three days' means 'a very short time'.
Can we please stop acting like morons, and start thinking?
Smart Tricks
Among the Belgian 'Jews' there are people who are trying to pull a thrick on us. The
Central Jewish Consistory has made no statement about the conflict in the Middle East,
they say. The Forum of Jewish Organisations, on the other hand, made statements, called
for a support-demonstration for 'Israel'. They accuse the Muslim Executive, the Islamic
equivalent of the Central Jewish Consistory, and of the Catholic archbishopric of Mechelen,
of taking a stance, making statements, and calling to demonstrate. They claim the
Muslim Executive has no right to do so.
They come to a odd conclusion, I again could understand if we still would be living in the
same old anti-Jewish culture we only outgrew from Vaticanum II in 1965 onwards. But that
has no place in today's society, where we, or at least part of us do their utmost best to
teach people to think. They conclude that for 'the Jewish community', whatever that may
be, this is a politicial matter, which needs to be solved by 'the politics'. They accuse the
Muslims of trying to turn this into a religious matter, and that this would mean it is a
conflict between Jews and Muslims, and need to be seen this way in this country. Denis
Ducarme from MR, the French speaking 'Liberals', demands the Muslim-Executive would
be summoned on the carpet of the ministery of Justice to get reprimanded.
Double Standards
This of course is only a sly juridical trick. It would mean politicians do not need to think. It would mean, for politicians justice simply needs to be meaningless. It also would mean Dirk Verhofstadt, with his claim Pius XII should have denounced the persecution of the holocaust in unmistakable terms, is irrelevant. In the logic of Ducarme Pius did the right thing. I don't agree with Ducarme, and I do agree with Dirk Verhofstadt. Pius XII should have done everything that was in his power to fight the persecution of our Jews, and I am very disappointed by the Belgian Jews, denying any responsibility, lieing, and cheating on us. Any well thinking human being today should denounce the bloodshed the Zionist regime is committing. Our Belgian Jews, if they really are Jews in their hearts, should denounce what the Zionists are doing. They should do it not only for the Palestinians, but for themselves too. These crimes against the Palestinians are crimes against Judaism too.
Thinking prohibited
It is, once more, time to put a bizar myth right.
At some point in history a
clear distinction between the power of the Church, and the power of the state became
necessary. In the Muslim countries people see more clear, and already understood a
long time ago that it is a separation of the diverse powers we need. There was a problem
because the Church, the politicians, and the Royals formed kind of a coalition against
the population. The role of the Church was so important because the Church controlled
the thinking of the people.
Unfortunately, we, Westerners, are very true to our
own stupidity, and I hear many people in power call for 'a seperation between religion
and state'. A stand-up comedian could not make a mockery of politicians more effective.
A separation between religion and state would mean the political parties should be
abbolished, for in the political parties people are gathered around a number of ideas,
worldviews, they consider to be theirs. Religion comes from the Latin word religare, to bind
strongly.
One would have a good point if one asked to stop abusing G-d as a tool to suppress people, that the concept of G-d was never meant for that purpose. But people fail to do so. Even in Turkey, a country with an Islamic tradition, the fools who believe they need to forbid the veil because of 'the separation between Church and state', have many followers. Logic certainly is not the strongest point of the people who claim they own the thinking, accusing religious people to merely 'believe'.
Bizar dogma
The position of the different religious institutions should be that they function as
thinking tancs, providing the politicians the necessary inspiration, they need to do their
legislative work. That role should not be limited to so called 'scientist'.
Ducarme fails to say that the people
who are part of the Jewish Consistory, also are members of the Jewish organisations. In
one function they shut up, in the other they participate in the debate, and I am not happy
about the way they do so.
The dogma of the separation between religion and state
is as bizar as some Voodoo-practises. It would mean politicians are not allowed to think.
If that would be the case, it does not surprise me the Zionist politicians, who know nothing
about Judaism, don't know anything else but shedding blood.
The ability to make the distinction between right and wrong is necessary
For almost 2000 years Christians failed to understand the narrative about Jesus was
meant to preserve the Jewish religion. Appartently we do not have the patent on
stupidity. The way our Jews think today is largely determined by anti-Semitism. I cannot
apologize enough for the wrong done to them by our ancestors. Today we need to reach
each others hands, and recreate space for religious thought. We need to rebuild our
culture. Politics can't without thinking about right and wrong. Whether we include the
notion G-d in our philosophy or we don't that does not change our duties. G-d does not
go away if we refuse to see it.
'Jews' need to become Jews
"Yes, and as soon as we have done that, you send us to the gaz-chambers
again", I imagine they would react.
I believe we stand a fair chance to push back all kinds of anti-Semitism, if only we
join forces. We need our Jews to become more authentic Jewish
again. We need them to drop the devious Zionist propaganda, which in fact was a
violation of their Jewish soul, and still is. The freedom, and safety of the Jewish people
will be better guaranteed, when the Zionist anti-Muslimism disappears. Today, the main
source for anti-Judaism is the indirect path of anti-Muslimism. A growing number of
people react like Vera De Troch on the Canvas website: "About Gaza: The main
evildoers in this conflict, and
in many others is religion, of any kind. Without religion there would be a lot less wars in
the world." Please, let us rebuild Judaism, in a rightful way. Whatever our mistakes
in the past were, we need to unite for the future of our children. I have repeated time and
again the truth about our Christian past. The lives of Jews, and Muslims, weigh more to
me than absurd, foolish misinterpretations of religion. Interpretations that don't stand
a chance as soon as one starts thinking.
Our culture
we inherit. We are not responsible for what we inherit, but we are responsible for how we
shape the future. The Jewish people has a responsibility too. They need to reach out to
the Muslims, and they need to do it urgently.

G-d's will, will prevail
Whenever I discuss with atheists, they want me to prove G-d exists. While claiming they are right, they arrogantly make a mockery of me. They look down on me, saying I am the 'fool', and 'fanatic', who 'believes', while they, the 'superior' people 'think'.
The matter of the fact is, except for a few exceptions, they don't even begin to think.
Religion, the thinking about G-d, I would like to compare to a huge math problem, consisting
of an indefinite number of smaller math problems to solve. I would like to picture religion
like a never ending puzzle, because I hope with this methaphore, I will get through to
people.
Now, atheists always refuse to even begin solving the problem. They simply
sweep the puzzle off the table. Many times they refer to their 'prophet' Dawkins to
legitimise their rejection of thinking about what controls us. They claim their belief is 'thinking',
and the thinking of religious people is 'a belief', and cling on to their belief in
this new dogma, they created.
There has been a time where I myself believed 'religion' simply wasn't something for me. My experiences with the church ware rather painful, and at the age of 19, or so, I turned my back on the church. However, I took 'Jesus' with me, or rather the values he stood for. By doing so, I unconsciously returned to the original motherreligion, but, as I said, I was not aware of that. In fact religion is something one cannot escape off. At some point, only months before the Muslims appeared into my life, everything fell into place. Live experience showed me the religious stories contained truth after all, only not in the way the church had explained it would. The real truth lies much deeper.
In order to know what we are doing we need to think until
our heads aches. We need to work hard.
The attractive part for many atheists, and
many religious fundamentalists, is they don't need to do anything. I met a few people
from different backgrounds, who apparently believed they were born as superior to the
average. I specifically know one man, who, because he believed he was born too superior
to work, and as a consequence actually ruined his own life. Many people I discussed with
fooled themselves they were born with the divine wisdom because of their belonging to
their respective groups. They consider the sense of their lives already fulfilled by some
ancestors, so that they don't need to do anything. The Christian narrative makes this
quite clear. For the 'Christians' - what is in a name - 'Jesus' 'died for their sins' 2000 years
ago, dismissing them of 'the original sin'.
Of course that is rubbish. Every human being has the same
duty, we are all equal, we all need to engage in our personal 'jihad', the struggle within ourselves
to understand the mistery of G-d, and everything that surrounds it. The tag we attach to
ourselves has no value if we do not engage in that psychological struggle, or in another word,
jihad.
In a conversation with Annemiek Schrijver in
'Het Vermoeden', the chief editor of
'Trouw', a Dutch magazine, put our European
problem in words as such: "Christendom is the first step to secularism." We cannot deny
that throughout our European history 'Jesus' has been used as an instrument to prosecute
Jews. Even if there have been Jews killed by the Romans, due to mistakes made inside
the Jewish community of that time, that never can legitimate the atrocities the Jewish
people througout our history have been the victim of. Ignorance, the inability to understand
the culture, we as Europeans, considered to be our own, was the cause of the Holocaust.
Unfortunately, what is happening in Gaza right now, is no different. Ignorance, the alienation
of the original Jewish religion by the Zionists, is at the basis of the murdering. This is why
the killing in Gaza, can be seen as a continuation of the Holocaust, only executed by
people who call themselves unrightfully 'Jews' this time.
What bothers me the most, is that after the holocaust, Pius XII failed to even reflect on the attitude of the church. In 1960 sister Brigitte was still teaching us to hate the Jews. Until 1965 the church clinged on to the belief the Jews needed to convert to Christendom. But even the statement of the Vatican of 1998 does not satisfy me. Page 391 in 'Pius XII, and the annihilation of the Jews' of Dirk Verhofstadt. What I expect the Vatican to do, as a way to repent, is making the wrongs of the past right. The core of 'Christendom' needs to be changed. Until then 'Christendom' will keep being as little Christendom as the Zionists are Jews. I call upon the church to make the return to Judaism the core of their tenet.
Whatever the label is we attach to ourselves, we need to choose for authenticity.
Now, when it comes to the Jewish religion, at the time the Islamic prophet was a young man,
he saw the Christians, and Jews fight among each other, and came up with the brilliant
project of Islam, in plain English, 'the worship of G-d'. Islam is a synthesis of the two
conflicting religions, in which he restores
the dignity of the Jews, and recognises 'Jesus', as a legitimate prophet. I cannot imagine
about a better proposal to make peace. However, individuals for whom religion was
merely an instrument to bring them to power, or to increase thier power, rejected his
offer.
There are people around here, in Europe, who have managed to make
large numbers of people believe all evil is in religion. Among them there are a substantial
number of Zionists. Use the M-word, and people start to freak. But since Islam to the
core is the reinvention of Judaism, the anti-Muslimism also resulted in an increase of the
aversion towards Jews. Zionists have been feeding anti-Judaism all along, in their
anti-Muslimism.
Anti-Muslimism and anti-Judaism are fruits growing on the same tree.
If you feed one, the other grows too. Please, stop doing that.
These days we have come to a point where merely mentioning the word 'religion',
causes reactions like: "Yakkie!" This only can mean we are the lost sheep,
the bible talks
about. We are the ones, who need to find our way back to the right stable.
The Palestinians resemble the most to the Jews who were persecuted by the Romans
2000 years ago. They are fighting to defend the same values as their ancestors 2000 years
ago.
The Zionists, like the Romans, reject the natural desire of people to be free, and
live in dignity. Righteous Jews, such as, among others,
Uri Avnery, keep us
informed about the truth on the ground in the extremely un-Israel-like Zionist state.
It is a basic characteristic of the human being to strive for self determination,
dignity, and righteousness. This is the way the 'something' that is above us, we call G-d
determined it to be. That 'something', we call G-d, is symbolised
by the yarmulkes of the pious Jews, the Muslims, unfortunately also by a few woolves
in sheepsfur, and by the veils, and hats, Islamic, Jewish, and Christian (until the sixties of
the 20th century) women wear. The struggle of the Palestinians IS NOT against Judaism,
on the contrary. The Palestinians are defeding these values. The change of the name
into Islam, or the change of the name of G-d, into Allah does not alter the values.
The people for whom perfect familiar ideas became 'alien', and threatening, simply
because they are formulated in another language than their mother tongue, should
think about what they are doing.
Why the Palestinians have G-d on their side
It is only natural that the Palestinians, and most Muslims, after more than 60 years of Naqba, are entirely fed up with the Zionist regime, and it's criminal, ongoing ethnic cleansing. The Zionists should read the Jewish Torah. The Bible, the Torah, and the Quran tell us Hamas will win the moral battle. The lying, cheating, and desperate attempts to eradicate the truth of the Zionists, only confirm that.
True Israelites
What worries me a lot, is that people, who believe they are 'Jews' consider it to be the most natural thing on earth that they leave perfectly safe countries like Belgium, and The Netherlands, to move to, what they unrightfully call: 'Israel', while the indigenous population, the real Israelites, are locked up in the concentration camps of Gaza, and the West bank, or living as 'untermenschen' in the Zionist state. I am wondering where their conscience is. That absence of a conscience among people who call themselves Jews, is burning holes in my heart, it is depressing.
The spiritual meaning of the word Israel is: 'Prince of G-d', or 'Leader of G-d'. In today's
language this means: 'He who reached the divine wisdom so close, he can speak for G-d',
or 'He who by his wisdom gained respect'. However, we have seen that througout the
history of mankind, there always has been a large part of the population that rejects the
divine, rejects righteousness.
But in the Middle East people are not so shallow as in Europe and
the US. They have a tradition of thinking a lot deeper. They are more dignified too, more
civilised. Tony Blair was right with his 'clash on civilisations' after all. Only we need to read
the message backwards. We are the fundamentalists, those who have lost the meaning
of their own culture.
So far I have not found a translation of the Hamas-charter that is NOT made by
non-Muslims, and therefore mutilated. But even on the basis of what there is available,
I cannot agree with all the evil interpretations the internet is flooded with. No matter how
evil the interpretations are, it cannot be overlooked that the resemblance of also Hamas
to the Jews who fought the Romans is stunning.
Is this how far we have come?
Do we label the Jews who fought the Romans 2000 years ago 'terrorists'? Doe we actually
label 'Jesus' a terrorist? Doesn't the bloodshed in Palestine prove we, Westerers, all are
equally stupid? We have lost Israel a very long time ago.
If we don't start thinking urgently
we only prove we haven't moved on an inch in 2000 years.
My big mistake has been ...
... I was so naive to think the conflict in the Middle East was about Judaism. Michael
Freilicht from Joods Actueel said the Jews needed a state of their own, and the 'Jewish
character' of 'Israel' should be preserved.
Freilich is the grandson of Louis David,
a man who, when he was fifteen, was able to jump off the train to Auschwitz, and if I recall
well, his mother stayed on that train, and was killed shortly afterwards.
Due to this
one can understand that Freilich is sensitive to the idea of a place of their own for Jews to
be safe. Hans Knoop also seems to agree on many issues with the Palestinians, except
when it comes to the Zionist regime.
What Freilich and Knoop fail to see is they are defending a bunch of criminals who simply abuse the Jewish people. No righteous human being questions the right on safety of the Jewish people, including the Palestinians. The problem is this is not about the Jewish people anymore. The Zionist state is not a Jewish state. If only the country would be more Jewish, that would solve a great deal of the problems.
'Jewish' behaviour?
I never expected my main opponents in my struggle against racism would be people
who label themselves unrightfully as 'Jews'. In recent days, once again, I have been
berated at by someone who became angry because I supported
Diana Buttu
who was bullied by a Zionist journalist on Fox News.
Because I objectively defended the Palestinian stance, a Zionist sent me this message:
"Go and
fuck yourself, you old islamofascist!!! go to gaza and get fucked by hamas!!!! Israel will
bomb the shit outta you!!!!!!!!!!!!"
Some time later the same person posted this message for me on youtube: "The Israeli
government should bomb the shit out of Lebanon,Syria and Iran!!!!!!!! Fuck Islam and
stuff your allah up your ass!!!!!!!!!!!!", and "Go and fuck yourself, you Nazipig!!!
A "Holocaust" is GAZA???????? You are a sick bastard!!!!!!! What Israeli is doing is
completely justified!!!!!! Get your facts right, you Islamofascist!!!!!!!"
That is the way it goes every day. One of the few righteous Israeli journalists is Gideon Levi. Usually he gets a lot of hatemail, but these days, they changed censurpolicies. Connie tells about it: "Excuse me, but when is enough enough of Gideon Levy? You are stuffing him down our throats, but hardly allow any negative responses to his artful embellishments of the truth. In plain words he misstates the positive concerning Israel and eliminates the negative concerning the Palestinians. I have typed my fingers bloody, trying to respond to his latest articles. You have chosen not to print my posts. This is a tactic of yours, and you have to live with it, but many of us are trying to get through with our message, and we are being blocked by your censors. Does this make you feel important? Does this make you feel elevated in the eyes of the bashers of Israel, and Jews? Most of us have a clear conscience about this war. Israel is doing the right thing, whether you can concede to the truth that it is either them or us. No in between. This is for you to deal with. It is the ugly fact of the situation on the ground."
On September 21 2008 'Joey' wrote: "FINALLY someone who says the truth. This is
the only step to take regarding Gaza. Israel must invade it, dismantle Gaza and hand it
over to the PA, while building jobs such as factories over there. This would both profit and
Palestinians since they will finally have work and Israelis, since they could use Palestinians
as cheap labour (a bit like what China does) and gain money.
This is one of the many responses that show the Zionists see the Palestinians as
'untermenschen'. I collected huge piles of files with racist statements of Zionists, who
unrightfully call themselves Jews.
Unlike usually beneath
'The time of the righteous' of Gideon Levi, most racist remarks were censured on
January 9 2009. But Bandar Michaels managed to get through with: "Gideon,
you are an insignificant minority" This observation says it all. The trouble is
there are too little real Jews in 'Israel'. It is confirmed in an article in De Morgen posted
by 'Johan Boeremans'.
There is a Jewish statement in the bible that says:
"Many are invited, but few accept the invitation", or in other words: "Many are called,
but few are chosen." See Math 22. Gideon Levi is a chosen one, the rare white raven.
The incompatibility of Zionism and Judaism
Jewish religion is a beautiful religion, it is about compassion, about peace,
about respecting each other. It is all about the golden rule: "Don't do to others, what you
don't want them to do to you."
But what I see happening in the
Zionist state, is the
epitome of the opposite of Judaism.
The Zionists even do not seem to understand the very basis of Judaism. Zionists
are atheist. They spit on Judaism. They never have been interested in the well-being of
the Jewish people, but rather abused the horrendeous plight of the Jewish people
to meet
their personal goals.
As we can see, even before Hitler's unimaginable crimes,
there already was a large
number of 'Jews' who were alienated from Judaism, and spitting on it. In France, the
atheist of Jewish descent, Irene Nemirovsky, had gained popularity, was invited at all
parties of the 'high society', because she wrote anti-Semite articles. In the end she
understood, but then it was too late. She even had her family baptised to escape the
murderous machine. It all was in vain. In 1942, at the age of 39 she was killed in Auschwitz.
When we cultivate evil, we should not be surprised when it killes us.
The atheist problem
Except for a few white ravens among them, atheists reject the notion of G-d, and
the entire religious patrimonium our ancestors, with so much care, preserved for us.
Most atheist believe the rejection of religion will provide them an escape of the difficulties
that go with being a human being. Of course this is nothing other
than a variant on the same old sick pattern: "L'enfer, c'est les autres".
There simply is no way, no magic formula to allow
us to escape the difficulties that are inherent to being human. The religions provide the
best there is: "Thou shalt love thy neighbour."
When people fail to understand their religions, and fail to behave according
to those religions, that is the responsibility of those people. People will remain people
despite any religious wisdom. Christendom has been quintessentially fundamentalistic.
The narrative about Jesus originally was meant to preserve the Jewish religion. It was NOT
meant to become the tool to destroy Judaism it has been for almost 2000 years. The
phenomenon, the dynamic I see many people caught in, is the fact they had themselves
fooled, that they are not so clever, and 'superior' as they always believed they were, inhibits
them to open their eyes for the obvious truth about their responsibility, and makes them
cling on again to the old devious myths about their superiority, and again sweep the dirt
beneath the carpet. This is why I propose to be compassionate for ourselves. We are not
responisible for what we inherited. We cannot change the past, but we are responsible
for how we contribute to shaping the future.
To be or not to be a Zionist
My guess has been for quite some time that the Zionists would become desperate
in the last days before Obama is comming up, simply because their conscience is hurting
like hell. In this brutal violence, I see, among other things deep feelings of despair, among
people who called themselves Jews, but behaved the opposite way for such a long time,
that they don't even know what they are doing any more.
In Flanders, one of the Jews who seemed to have the most distinct desire for
righteousness was Michael Freilich. In an article in De Standaard, he claims he is not a
Zionist, that he only supports 'Israel' 100%. I believe Michael Freilich has his intentions
right. However, like many
other people who mean well, he has himself fooled by the Zionists. He is young, and
with his craving for righteousness he is quite appealing. For the Flemish Zionists that is
like a present from heaven. Like the teenage daughter of Aron Malinsky, he is the perfect,
cute, innocent sheep the Zionists can hide behind, to poison our hearts more effectively
with Zionist anti-Muslimist propaganda.
If Michael Freilich really cares for Judaism, he should recognize the criminal behaviour of
the Zionist regime, and denounce it. He should recognize that the Zionists are destroying
what little
there was left of Judaism, of Israel in that country. If Michael Freilich puts Judaism first in his life,
then he should open his eyes to the fact that the country 'Israel' has long since stopped
being Israel. He should see Zionism destroyes the Jewish soul even more effectively than
Christian anti-Semitism ever could. An authentic Jew should think. There never can be
a time for utterly criminal behaviour such as the behaviour of the Zionist regime.

... over and over again is that I confuse Zionist with Jews. Judaism is a beautiful
religion, I cannot get enough of. Anytime Annemiek Schrijver on the Dutch television,
interviews a Jewish Rabbi I record it, and watch it again, at least three times, for truly
understanding every idea the interview contains.
Zionism on the other hand has turned into the same ugly ideology that killed
six million Jews a long ago. Zionists refuse to see the similarity, say it is not the same
because the
scale of the murdering is different. They have numerous lame excuses to legitimise the
criminal behaviour of the 'Israeli' government. Barak and Livni have Palestinians butchered
because they want to win the elections. It delivered them a gain of one seat in the Knesset
for 80 Palestinian bodies. Palestinians are sacrificed for the Holy Cow called
'democracy', by people who behave totally contrary to the Jewish religion.
There is something about the TV-serie 'Desperate Housewives' that makes it appealing to me. It always contains an interesting moral message, and of course it is about women like me. Although it is brought with fine humour, slightly caricatured, I can relate to what happens to them. I am a woman, a mother, feel confident about that, and to me desperate racist/anti-Semitic academics (see comment of Ipso facto De Meester) have lost their credibility a long time ago. When they feel the need to humiliate me, that can mean only one thing: I am on the right track. So, I don't feel humiliated.
In Friday nights episode the message was: "What's in a name? Do the labels we attach to people, tell us everything we need to know? If we say she is just a child, does this mean she is truly innocent? Does calling someone a 'drug-dealer' prove she is purely evil? Will a man known as a preacher, always practice what he preaches? Can a man brand as a villain possess qualities of a hero? The truth is, a name can never really tell you who someone is ... any more than what people really are capable of."
As if there were some divine coincidence in the planning, this episode was aired while
the Zionists in 'Israel' were already butchering Palestinians as human sacrifices. This practice we,
arrogant people of the West, always claim it belongs to 'inferior' people, other than we.
Because we witness this on our TV each day, and because a young man wearing a yarmulke
defended this slaughtering of human beings in 'Terzake', a program that intends to provide
some circumstantial information, a few questions impose themselves:
a) Does the wearing of a yarmulke turn someone into a saint?
b) If you were a victim of the holocaust, does that mean you have the right to
violate the rights of the Palestinians?
A sheepsfur does not turn the woolf into a sheep.
I have been listening to people, visiting the website of the Haaretz almost daily for many years. To the extend where it is bearable, I have read what people write in the talk-back too. That saves me the trip to 'Israel' to talk to people, and listen to their opinions. But since racism for me simply is disgusting, in the end I only read what the few righteous Jews, such as Swiss Dino, and Yaakov Sullivan wrote, avoiding the racist extremists, the likes of Jean Van Daem, who only destroyed my mood. The racism/anti-Semitism of people who claim they are 'Jews', is extremely hard to process. This may be a reason why I do not have the entire picture.
The face of Zionism became so ugly I simply cannot bare to watch it. It makes me puke. Zionism is utterly un-Jewish. There is no justification whatsoever in the Torah for Zionism. Anti-Semitism DOES NOT become right when Muslims are cornered into the role of the scapegoat. There is no excuse for the evil the 'Israeli' government commits. Putting a yarmulke on your head does not turn you into a pious Jew. If someone preaches injustice with a yarmulke on his head, that person simply is an imposter. What is in our hearts, the way we relate to our fellow men, always comes first. It comes before whether we eat kosher, respect the Shabbat, dress Jewish. In today's businesslike Western language this means, our psychological condition always is more important than anything, than the titles, the labels we claim to be ours. The fairy tales we were told when we were children contained wisdom too. A sheepsfur does not turn the woolf into a sheep.
The elephant and the mosquito
I fully understand it when The AEL youngsters laugh about the protest of the Jewish
community against relatively minor incidents like those caused by a few sucking
stand-up comedians. Anti-Semitism has two faces: anti-Judaism, and anti-Muslimism.
Zionist seem to be blind for the anti-Muslimism part. They even have the guts to deny
anti-Muslimism is anti-Semitism, and therefore racism. In comparison
to what the AEL had to endure, to what the Muslim people in this country had to endure
this,
and
this is only like a small mosquito bite.
The racism the AEL has been the victim of, is more like they were overrun by a
herd of elephants.
An AEL-obsession
There cannot be many reasons for the disproportional hatred for the AEL. The ignorance, jealousy, shallowness, and egoism among the Flemish is only part of the picture. Zionist played, and still play an important role in the rooting of anti-Muslimism in this society. The false accusations, and hostile language used by Zionists, and by people who call themselves 'Jewish' makes it obvious there is an AEL-obsession existing within that group. Despite the fact that many people have apologized many times for the burning of a doll, representing Ariel Sharon in 2002 they keep bringing that up again. While the number of people, who understand they have been fooled concerning former president of the AEL Dyab Abou Jahjah, is growing, the Zionist keep trying to vilify him, keep spreading lies.
'Importing' the conflict of the Middle East in Flanders
The AEL informs about a truth
that seems to be very inconvenient to people who have very little to say for themselves.
One of the lies these people are trying to make us believe since almost seven years is
the AEL so to speak 'imports' the conflict of the Middle East in Belgium.
Let us put a few things straight:
a) There is a conflict in the Middle East,
the rights of the Palestinians are violated, because Europe never managed to
develop civilised behaviour towards it's Jews. Until 1965 the Catholic church taught us
to hate Jews. I clearly remember the nun, sister Brigitte, in the religion classes, saying we
needed to hate Jews, because they 'killed Jesus'. But for sister Brigitte killing,
them, like the Nazis did, was a step too far. The Jews never killed Jesus, the Romans did.
The narrative about Jesus originally was meant for the survival of Judaism under threat,
it was not meant to instrumentalise for the persecution of Jews.
b) Under several pseudonyms Zionist so called 'Jews' have been flooding the internet
with anti-Muslimism, and they were very active. At first I had a hard time to understand this.
After watching al the documentaries on the second World War, and on the holocaust, in
1985 the fact that the victims of the holocaust could turn into their prosecutors, was beyond
my imagination. It took me a long time to process this. I think there never will come a
day when I will not be shocked, when I come across racist rhetoric by 'Jews'. The
dispersing of the Zionist propaganda has been going on long before the AEL was
established, even before the second World War. Though it was not meant to friendly
provide useful information, but as a death-threat, the story of
Jacob Israël de Haan
proves this.
So much for 'importing' the conflict?
The issue of Zionist bigotry I will address in a separate file.
Anti-Zionism is NOT anti-Semitism
Another
deceit is anti-Zionism should be the same as
anti-Semitism. It is not.
Claiming anti-Zionism equals anti-Semitism, once more,
is the same as claiming the wolve in the sheepsfur is actually a sheep. The burning of a
flag with the Star of David on it is in these circumstances not an act of anti-Semitism.
The Zionists slured their Star of David themselves by their criminal behaviour. They
contaminated it to the point where it became equal to the swastika of the
Nazis. Joel Robinfeld,
who here claims, the emotional outbursts of anger as a consequence
to the violence in Gaza, are acts of anti-Semitism, and need to be punished, is a very
good actor. This same man was the only one to make explicit, shocking anti-Semitic
statements on December 15 2008 in a conference room of the Belgian parliament,
where Dr. Hassan Khrayshe, the vice speaker of the Palestinian legislative council, spoke
about the balance of 60 years of Nakba in a way so intelligent, refined, and civilised many
Western politicians have a lot to learn of.
Saying anti-Zionism equals anti-Semitism,
is the same as saying disagreeing with Hitler means hating Jews.
A sickening war
As Annie Lennox I have been shaken to the core ever since the IDF started bombing Gaza on December 27 2008. For people who are not used to read about Israel, IDF stands for Israeli 'Defence' force. Zionist War Force would be a more appropriate name. The crimes of the Israeli government are so outrageous, I was so devastated, shaken, I became ill, and was obliged to take a few days off.
The silence of Obama
As we have seen on today, he has plenty to say. I am keeping my hopes up about
Obama. My guess is he keeps silent because he thinks different than George Bush, and
giving his opinion right now would only result in a clash between presidents.
The bad
thing is, the chances the Zionists expect the same, are high. There is a possibility that the
upcoming presidency of Barack Obama, along with the upcoming elections in Israel, are
mayor factors in this war on Gaza. My fear has been for quite some time that the Zionist
might wage war because they very well know their case is lost, and they are desperate.
The mistake I made is, I almost had my good intentions abused by people with bad intentions, who disguised themselves as righteous Jews.
To be continued ...
For some time I am thinking about painting a few portraits of different kinds of people, among them Haredi Jewish men, black Africans, Chinese, a red haired Scottish person, and so on ... I want to do that to emphasize the richness of diversity in an other way than by writing, and to honour that diversity too. Images have a unique power. I want to make a statement that any human being should be respected the way he or she is. We only can ask from each other to respect justice, the golden rule: "Do not to others what you do not want them to do to you."
I reproach myself I have not taken a photografh of a young woman I briefly met in
Antwerp a few months ago. She was such a beautiful model for my female Jew, she was
perfect. I don't even know if she was Jewish. She may have been merely Flemish. We
chatted for a minute, she spoke Dutch with a slight Antwerp accent. She certainly
was not respecting the Shabbat, since it was on a Saturday afternoon.
Today on the internet I came across a young woman who looks just like that Flemish
girl from two months ago. The similarity is stricking. The first few seconds I thought
she must have been a spokeswoman for the Jewish people. But already after a few
seconds it appeared I was mistaking. My new perfect Jewish model was a ...
Palestinian
... and in the meantime it is usefull to listen to what those facts on the ground, that are
hidden for us by the mainstream media, really are.

The Jewish community is worried about the Hamas-flags that have been carried
around in Brussels last week. They claim this is a symbol of a forbidden 'terror organisation'.
If something is forbidden, it is good to know what it is. Judaism has been forbidden too
in the past, and we know what quagmire that lead us to. All while Judaism and Islam are
the variants of the Abrahamite religions which are the closest to G-d.
Especially because fascists like
Jurgen Verstrepen try to use the Jewish worries for their own gain, we need to be at our
guard. It is a public secret that
the Flemish fascist have close ties with a small number of Jewish anti-Muslimists.
So I did a little research on google.
The Hamas-flag shows a white text on a green background. The text in white is the 'Shahadah'. the Shahadah is a prayer. It is the Islamic creed, the Muslim declaration of belief in the oneness of God and acceptance of Muhammad as his prophet. The declaration reads: Lã ilaha illa al-Lãh, Muhammadun rasûlu l-Lãh In English that is: "There is no god but God, Muhammad is the Messenger of God". This also is kalled Kalima, which literally means "words." The recitation of the Shahadah is for Muslims the most important of the Five Pillars and is performed daily.
No matter what mistakes people make, daily prayers in any religion are meant to
stay focussed, to keep in mind what is important in life. We know the principle of one G-d
was invented by the ancestors of the Jews who fled slavery in Egypt. The recognition of
the power of G-d that is above all human beings, equally rules out slavery, and abuse of
one human being by the other. For us in 2009 this means for-instance the worshipping of,
and submission to fellow human beings, such as false prophets like Bush, is wrong. We are
free human beings with our own responsibility. If we make the mistake to follow Bush, then
this makes us accountable for that choice. It turns us into accomplishes to the injustice
Bush inflicted on the Iraqi, and other people.
The short prayer also means
addictions, such as addictions to alcohol, drugs, and other addictions are forbidden
because they destroy the freedom of the individual.
Many other Islamic rules can be derived from this short message. Since we are
equally submitted to a power that is above us, this also contains the golden rule: "Do
not do to others what you don't want them to do to you."
This is symbolised by the yarmulke
many Jews, Muslims wear, cardinal Danneels, and the Pope wear. The headscarf of the
Muslimas also has the same meaning.
As a consequence the prohibition decreed by some 'liberals' for Muslimas to wear their
head-scarves, means they are forced to reject this message. They are forced to reject the
presence of G-d as the power above as, and consequently also of the equality of human beings.
This means that the Muslimas are forced to reject the very values the 'Westerners'
claim to be theirs, the values of the Enlightenment: fraternity, equality and liberty.
Some Jewish women cover their hair with a hat or a scarf too. I do not see the
sense of wearing wigs, except as a concession to pressure of the dominant majority,
which should not happen in a society that sees itself as liberal.
In any case we cannot expect people to think that far. They prefer to cling on to senseless
arguments like the 'neutrality', to engage in yet another variant of 'the one true belief'
which today is atheism, or in other words, the rejection of culture. Although there are
people who manage to grow to an exeptional high level without religious schooling, the
majority is more inconsequent, and confused than ever before. These days the atheist
majority is in disarray to the point where they tar and feather the few among them who
grow above the majority to wise people.
The second part says: "Muhammed is the Messenger of G-d." In this the Muslims
repeat, and emphasize Muhammed is their prophet, and that he is important.
This I consider to be very significant for us to remember, because Muhammed ibn Abdallah,
the prophet of the Muslims, was a man who made a huge contribution to mankind.
In Islam this extraordinary brilliant man, gave us a synthesis of Judaism and
Christendom,
in which the damaged reputation of Judaism is restored, and in which the Christians could
find sufficient recognition. In Islam the prophet Muhammed recognizes Jesus as a valid
prophet too. Unfortunately the Christians were thinking more about power and
personal gain, and were too stubborn to even consider the offer.
Unlike Christianity that claims in it's creed the one and only way to G-d leads through Jesus, whom they see to this very day as a martyr killed by his own people, the Jews, the Islamic creed does not include statements of exclusion. The prophet Muhammed encouraged his people to respect the Jews and the Christians, to whom he referred as 'the people of the book'.
There cannot be any other conclusion, as far as it comes to the Hamas-flag there is
nothing whatsoever that can give cause to 'prohibition' other than the same utterly
senseless, and shameful motives that were at the basis of the necessity for the Jewish
people to establish their own state in the first place.
On a green background it only reads a Jewish statement, there is only one
G-d, in connection to to the prophet Muhammed.

Yesterday Hans Knoop, spokesperson for the Forum of Jewish Organisations, on the Flemish state television said Israel had no choice but to attack Gaza. I totally disagree with him. There is absolutely no use in making peace as long as the new born zealot, Bush is in office. He will have it torpedoed anyway. Less than a month seperates us from the inauguration of Obama, and from that day on peace in Israel will become a possibility, with inclusion of guarantees for the safety of the Jewish people. This brutal violence of the IDF only complicates the peace process. It is quite amusing, but also to the point when the youngsters of the AEL use terms like 'luftwaffe'. What have we done to puch the Israeli Jews into the opposite of what Judaism is all about? I do not agree with Hans Knoop, but I like him. By now I know a lot about what we have done wrong.
Coming up: The chilling breese that can run through a well climatised room at moments when it becomes clear Jews stand alone, is something to focus on, and think about. Hans Knoop mentions it in the conversation on the Dutch TV with the Palestinian El Fassad. I could feel it while I was listening to the Palestinians. I can feel it now when I listen to our Jews, and read what they write. I read about it on the website of the Haaretz. Roi Ben-Yehuda wrote that when watching the mass protest on TV, and reading about strident calls for Israel's dissolution, Jews can't help but get that lonely feeling in the pits of their stomachs: The world is against us. He calls it a 'Pavlovian response conditioned by persecution on a mass scale'. I read about it on the new blog of Joods Actueel. The outcry of Yves Van de Steen struck me. The attention of 'the leftist intellectuals and academics in Europe for Israel bothers him. He claims they inherit this concern from their 'anti-Semitic communist and socialist leaders', but thinks now they became 'anti-Zionists', which he considers to be a new form of hatred for Jews. He believes hatred for Jews will persist for ever.
He believes all critic on the Israeli government cannot have
any other intention than to make the country disappear. He franticallly points to the
'democratic' nature, and then he becomes honest, and accuses the 'left intellectuals' of
forgetting where the Jews need to go to if there is no Jewish state. He believes they
will need to
move once more to uncertain destinations, and that the world wants them in the deepest
bottom of the ocean. He adds a few exclamation marks. He fears Adolf Hitler will get what
he wanted after all.
All this is of course heartbreaking, and this is why this needs thorough thought.

The killing of 6 million of our average Europeans, merely because they were 'Jews', before, during, and after WW2, which we refer to as 'the Holocaust', or 'Shoa', impressed me so deeply, I simply need to do something to avoid further injustice. Last week I accidentally surfed into a speech of Steven Spielberg in which he implores the audience to remember the Holocaust, and more specific, he asked the teachers to tell the next generation about it, so that it will not become a footnote in history.
I am very grateful to Mr. Spielberg for the many films my kids were able to enjoy
throughout their childhood, and I very much appreciate his efforts to support the
election of Barack Obama as next president of the US. I also would like to praise him for
the courage he demonstrated by making the film:
'Munich',
and the empathy he managed to develop while doing so. Very carefully Listen to what
he says about empathy. It is important.
Furthermore I admire him for
making 'Schindler's list'. Many times while I watched the film, and I saw it several times,
I asked myself: "Where did he find the energy, and the courage to make this film?" If I
need to put my hands
before my eyes, then what goes through a man, who's family was among the victims?
The answer to that question I found
where he
thanks his wife.
There can be no doubts
about it, we need to do all that is in our power to avoid further anti-Semitic violence.
However, especially on these days, when the Israeli government is causing a massacre in Gaza and the number of killed Palestinians increases every hour, we need to rethink a few things. By now it is more than obvious that remembering alone is not enough. I believe we need to think about HOW we want to remember the holocaust. There is no way we can keep denying that the Holocaust is not used as a tool to legitimise new bloodshed. We are repeating a mistake that has been made before. At the end of the day the holocaust is the consequence of the remembering of the spilling of Jewish blood 2000 years ago.
I think we are all like small fish dragged along with the current in a big ocean of people, and there is little we can change with our free will. I believe our religion is meant to develop consciousness, to enable us to use our free will to our best advantage. Therefore I would like to implore to search for answers in religion, and not in brutal military power. There are two things that urgently need to be tackled. A revival of Judaism in Israel, and among the people who consider themselves to be Jewish would help quite a lot, I believe. Judaism has all the answers about avoiding bloodshed, and yet be save. And since these last weeks I saw a few people who did not feel comfortable with their Semitic looks, I think it is imperative to put up programs for people to help them feel good about their Jewish identity, and appearance.
We, the people of western Europe believe we have 'evolved'. Mistakes have been made
in this culture in the past, but we believe we have learned from them. We consider
ourselves as 'ahead' of all other civilisations. "In 50 years of time, 'they' will be were we
ar now", people echo as parrots what they heard on tv.
Statements that provide us a
fake superior identity have an irresistable ring in our ears.
We have reason,
'they', are the suckers who believe.
But at the end of the day our culture turns out to be everything that tells us what we are
not. Probably it is so due to the many conflicts our ancestors passed through, but there
is not so much positive left in what we see as 'our culture', and most of the time we know
little about 'our culture'.
But what probably everybody accepts is that the European culture has a Christian
basis, and a growing number of people include the Jewish factor. However, I am quite
suspicious of the motivation to include the Jewish element in our inheritance. Too many
times people do not have genuine intentions, don't have the best interests of the Jewish
people at heart, when they come up with 'the Jewish-Christian values'.
If Jews are used as a tool, as a weapon in an anti-Semitic crusade, meant to harm
the Muslims, in that case I consider this abuse of the Jewish people.
Today, November 4, 2008, in the talkback on the website of the Isreali newspaper
Haaretz 'Mary for Jews' wrote, and she first quotes: "Joshua 24:15: ... choose you
this day whom ye will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on
the other side of the flood, but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD."
Then she jumps to: "One element is largely missing in all Obama's election speech:
God Himself. This is a self-proclaimed "christian" who actually is a true-blood
muslim, see for yourself", and she gives three links to
One is "Israel-insider", with as subtitle: "Israel's daily newsmagazine". That is weird,
because it provides an article with as title: "Is Barack Obama a Muslim wolf in Christian
wool?" It was written by Reuven Koret on March 27, 2008.
Given the history of Europe
one might consider the opposite logic: "Is Barack Obama a Christian woolf in Muslim wool?
It was the persecution of Jews by the Christians that culminated in the
holocaust, and as a consequence the establishment of the country Israel, on the land
where the Palestinians used to live. Which is the most important problem for the entire
world right now.
Smear e-mails have been sent around,
in which senator Obama had been
accused of being 'a Muslim', of having attended a 'Wahabi' school in Indonesia, of having
taken his Senate oath on the Koran, and of having refused to recite the Pledge of
Allegiance and of being part of an 'Islamic plot' to take over the U.S.
Predominantly
the Jewish community was targeted with these e-mails. Of course there is nothing wrong
with being a Muslim, but since the stupidity of the American people exceeds the imagination
of the rest of the world, Barack Obama had to deny these 'accusations'. In the world of
the thinking people being a Muslim should be seen as a compliment. But this severe
things are, and there are people who want 'them' to be there too in 50 years.
Because Muslims in the US are seen as witches, and the way our Jews used to be
perceived when the church still was powerful, Obama could not do anything but emphazise
he is a practising Christian. From the spiritual viewpoint that is the same, but the morons
don't know. The witches also were the intellectuals, the people with a higher spiritual capacity
than the ordinary.
It is kind
of odd that in order to make people feel at ease Obama is obliged to say he is a Christian.
It is quite odd that people are not afraid, feel comfortable with a faith that made the
hatred towards Jews the core of it's ritual, while people are afraid of the religion that was
meant to bring Jews and Christians together. Aren't we weirdos.
On another website people 'accuse' Obama of showing
understanding for Muslims and their cause, of being protective of the civil rights of Muslims.
Especially his statement: "I will stand with them (the Muslims) should the political winds
shift in an ugly direction." In other words, if Obama would protest in case the Muslims
would become victims of another holocaust, that makes him suspicious in the eyes of
certain people who think the Jewish public will be receptive to their 'information'.
Another 'sin' of Obama against the one and only western belief was the Illinois Senate Bill 750
creating the "Halal Food Act". Yet another blasphemy against the superior western
civilisation was his statement: "The Iraq war is a botched and ill-advised U.S. military
incursion into a Muslim country."
We have already seen what attitude is expected from
'a devout' Christian when it comes to war. The Flemish minister of war, Crembo, could
not sent troops to Afghanistan soon enough to have them fight his 'crusade'. But don't
you dear to think the Christians were the zealots. That would be blasphemy. If you belong
to the dominant western majority, do as you please, be as stupid as you want, as long
as you never forget to blame what is not becoming on the 'others', it is ok in this culture.
Crembo gave an examplary demonstration today: "If you do not aprove, you are in the
camp of Osama bin Laden, in the camp of the rapists."
By thus presenting Osama
bin Laden as the bearded devil Crembo sounds like the Zionist extremists, the far right
VB, and the neocons Bush belonged to.
The list of acts of blasphemy Obama
has commited is long. He also alledgedly said: "The Muslim call to prayer is one of the
prettiest sounds on Earth." Of course such a statement hurts to non-Muslim ears. They
want the sound that is the prettiest on Earth to be theirs. What an insult!
Obama even had 'the audacity' to recite the Shahada:
"Allah is Supreme! Allah is Supreme!
Allah is Supreme! Allah is Supreme!
I witness that there is no god but Allah
I witness that there is no god but Allah
I witness that Muhammad is his prophet... "
This really is serious in
non-Muslim eyes. According to Islamic scholars, reciting the Shahada, the Muslim
declaration of faith makes one a Muslim. For non-Muslims this is as good as being
bewitched, or possessed by the devil.
But the worst statement you can make
these days according to the Zionist Judeo-Christian monstrous alliance is: "Nobody is
suffering more than the Palestinian people."
Mercy, compassion, empathy for the
Palestinian people is what condones you straight to hell in the alternative belief of
that weird, but agressive bunch of people, who are not shy to make deaththreats if you
do not submit to their logic.
So, Mary for Jews asks: "God we trust, or Obama we trust?" She does not trust Obama because he thinks the muslim call for prayer is the prettiest sound on earth at sunset. She does not trust him because he alledgedly said Jesus was just a historical teacher. She does not trust him because he alledgedly said heaven is just "harps, clouds, and wings" - I don't even believe he said this. It is unlikelu. Mary for Jews does not trust anybody who can chant the muslim prayer in the most Arabic ascent with pride. In her view people who think like this, and behave like this, do not trust in God. The same poster was convinced: "One element is largely missing in Obama's election speech: God Himself." And he concludes: "This is a self-proclaimed 'Christian', who actually is a true-blood muslim.
But all the slander, the mudslinging
did not work. This time the American people showed intelligence in it's choice.
We need to keep in
mind that Barack Obama got 77% of the Jewish votes. Only in Israel itself more Jews voted
for McCain than for Obama. So, the majority of the Jews proved their interest in
intelligent solutions and peace. That is an hopeful thought to hold on to.
