ISSUES: Freedom to Discuss Israel's Policies
BACK | PRINT


Israel's argument for this wall suggests it is  needed as protection from the Palestinians.  The death and
injury statistics dispute this.  Based on the numbers, Israel does not need protection from the Palestinians, but the Palestinians certainly need protection from the 4th largest army in the world with over 600 weapons of mass destruction and the most advanced technology available courtesy of the USA and Britain. The Palestinians do not and have never had an army.  They are militia.

Between January 1, 2003 and February 15, 2004, 1,789 Palestinians have been killed compared to 162 Israelis making it 11:1.  Eleven Palestinians killed for every Israeli killed?  Obviously the Israelis need protection from the Palestinians.

Dr. Armitage's statement, "They're walling them in" is true and correct.  It is hardly anti-Semitic. TOP

Statement Three:

"They're essentially doing the same thing that was done to them…It's exactly what Hitler did to the Jews."

Facts: Ariel Sharon publicly advocates his solution for the "Palestinian Problem": deportation.  Members of the Israeli government have referred to Palestinians and Arab Israelis as "vermin" and "sub-human". Sharon along with 70 US Senators and congressman advocate and support building walled ghettos for Muslims and Christians, a policy directly against the US Constitution!  TOP

During the summer months, food and water is withheld from Palestinians for days at a time; curfews, some going for months are imposed, barring Christians and Muslims from medical care, employment and basic freedoms.

In Israel, Palestinians and Israeli Arabs of Christian or Muslim decent are prohibited from working on Jewish property or owning property previous owned by Jewish inhabitants meaning 90% of Israel is off-limits to Christians and Muslims.

February 19, 2004:

The Swedish government along 44 other countries, the Red Cross and Amnesty Inter-national today found Israel is violating international laws by building wall on Palestinian land.  Support for this wall is championed  by 70 members of the US Congress and Senate, led by Senator Joseph Lieberman (D-CT) despite the fact its construction violates the values and objectives stated in the US Constitution and its amendments.

AMNESTY International stated that the “Constructing the Wall inside the occupied territories is a violation of the International Law, and is considered part of the series of violation of Human rights, therefore the International Law should look into it”. The statement mentioned that 90% of the Wall is constructed on Palestinian lands and that it separates the people and families from each other, adding that the separation wall also bans thousands of Palestinians from accessing the basic services such as medication services, schools, food and work places.


Selected neighborhoods proudly post, "Jewish only" signs and the state strongly discourages mixing "Jewish blood" with the Asian workers brought in to do the work the Arabs once did or even carrying on relations with Sephardic Jews, the second class citizens in Israel.  Sephardic Jews are Semitic. Palestinian Christians and Muslims are Semitic.  Semitic refers to Arabic origins and the six ancient languages of the area. The majority of Israelis are not Semitic.  They are Caucasian and European.  

Israel currently employs chemical weapons to devastate sustenance and livelihood against the Bedouin Araqib tribe near Beer Sheva.  This is the third time in 2-years.  The current attack began January 15th, 2004 by spraying powerful herbicides on their crops, killing them. Rather than gas the inhabitants, they are killing their crops, poisoning their food and destroying their flocks with chemical weapons, in addition to razing the homes of over 2,000 people to force them off the land they've lived on for centuries to make room for Israeli settlers.  Though the Bedouin account for 25% of the population in this part of Israel, they control only 2% of the land.  Rather than compensate the owners of the land, the Israelis choose to force them off, violating international law.  This action falls under Crimes Against Humanity in the Rome Statues, specifically ethnic cleansing. Two hundred million dollars is allocated to this task, much from US grants.

In Gaza, bombs shaped like toys are tossed where children congregate.  Once picked up they explode killing the unlucky child and maiming those near.  Recently nerve gas has been used to target women and children at play and at home.  The Israeli military tosses the gas into the courtyards of residences rendering the inhabitants unable to move except the involuntary seizures that wrack their muscles and brains. 

 TOP

Contrast this with Hitler's Germany and treatment of the Jews.  The same elements are there: ideas of deportation, forced occupation, displacement and the seizing or destruction of property without compensation, forced starvation and destruction of livelihood, building walled ghetto, racial supremacy, two-tiered legal system, limitation on civil liberties, public beatings, humiliation, dehumanization, persecution, military might targeted at civilian populations, racial purity laws either overt or implied, the requirement of papers and designation of faith on ID cards, not to mention license plates with different colors for Jews and Gentiles to make them easy to identify at checkpoints. 

 
Making the Gospels Anti-Semitic
Why is the ADL Targeting The Passion of the Christ?

Anti-Semitism is a serious issue when it exists. The ADL continues to use this characterization to discredit people with opinions, research or facts contrary to their agendas on politics, human rights and Zionism. Numerous lawsuits have been won against the ADL in recent years for its infringement on the constitutional rights of Americans including spying, denial of civil liberties and defamation of character. 

Zionism is denounced by Torah Faithful Jewry.  It is a political movement based on racial supremacy and the Talmudic laws created after the birth of Christ to dissuade converts to Christianity and control those of the Jewish faith through the Rabbinical.   This is where The Passion of the Christ comes in.

Many Christians embrace the ADL's agenda, protecting Zionism and worshiping Israel first, placing it before their faith and before America. The largest group, Evangelical Christians constitute the driving force in the United States. For anyone who has read the Talmud given its teachings concerning Christians, this alliance defies logic.  The Passion of the Christ threatens to destroy this alliance by motivating Christians to fully embrace their faith.  If the alliance is destroyed, Zionism looses its underwriter and protector.

The ADL and its supporters fan the flames of anti-Semitism for their own agenda to keep the truth about Zionism from reaching their American underwriters and to terrorize Torah Faithful Jewry into moving to Israel, which they refuse to do. It is against Judaism, their religion to take land by force. Fastidiously committed to their faith they field labels of "Self-hating Jew", personal attacks and threats the Zionists execute on them.  Their faith is in God, not real estate. It is HIS strength that allows the Torah faithful to uphold their faith and repel Zionism.

Zionism's fear of this movie is in the reaction.  Upon seeing it Christians who support the ADL and its agenda may re-read John 3:16, Acts 15 or Revelations 2:8-10. Their eyes might open and suddenly the killing they call "justified", in the context of the teachings of Jesus becomes a mortal sin instituted by Pharisees. It may cause Christians to realize Galatians outlines the new covenant, and for Christians, God's promise of a messiah has been fulfilled. Christians may re-examine their behavior, faith and actions thus convincing Christians to behave like Christians and abandon Zionism which requires adherence to elitism (chosen by God status) and a sacred acknowledgement of collective guilt and victimization. 

Practicing Christians cannot support genocide, persecution, or racism against any people as all people are children of God, even those who are not Christian.  Practicing Christians cannot accept a chosen people as the new covenant upon the birth of Christ, God no longer chooses. Elitism is against the core Christian values. To elevate one group of people to a chosen status requires denying Christ.  With the resurrection He gives freewill to all people to chose Him.  Christians cannot promote or hold in esteem victimization, collective guilt and martyrdom. To do so goes against the teachings of Jesus requiring we forgive and forget and hold only the sinner responsible for his actions and never transfer the culpability. It also requires Christians refrain from perpetuating or facilitating any form of victimhood or sin.  To aid in its realization is equivalent to participating in it.

If Christians, the primary supporters of Zionism grasp that to be committed to their faith forbids these policies, everything falls apart.  If this happens, Zionism, not the state of Israel, will deteriorate without the unconditional support of America.  Israel will have to come to terms with its neighbors and learn to live in peace without racial supremacy and apartheid. With the end of apartheid, Israel can achieve its goal of democracy and the peace that existed for over 1000 years in the region between Jews and Gentiles can return. The entire world wins when this happens, but Zionists lose everything and those in power do not like to give it up.

The fear of losing the Evangelical benefactors is the reason groups like the ADL are attempting to discredit The Passion of the Christ, not that it will breed anti-Semitism.  A ridiculous argument when you consider the tenants of Christianity; this movie will strengthen the faith, not weaken it.  The last incident of anti-Semitism, two in fact related to The Passion plays...occurred in the 16th Century, 500 years ago.

Christianity teaches love the person, hate the sin.  Yes, more Christians will start asking questions about Christianity and Judaism after seeing this movie.  Yes Christians will be re-examining their lives, priorities and commitment to faith. Yes, they will be looking closely.  Christians faithful to the New Testament cannot be anti-Semitic and still be Christian. 

Today those who oppose Zionism are called anti-Semitic or self-hating Jews for refusing to sell their souls to fascism. By reacquainting themselves with the foundations of Christianity, Christians re-discover the strength faith emboldens one with to stand up for what is right and human, as the Torah Faithful Jews have done by denouncing Zionism and practicing Judaism absent of fascism and compromised beliefs.

This is why the ADL is attempting to discredit The Passion of the Christ: 10 Million dollars a day*, the freedom to continue apartheid unchecked and blessed by the US taxpayers and the power to dominate and destroy an entire race without repercussion. Without the Evangelical Christians support for these policies, the money train and political clout dry up. Zionism will have to come to terms with its actions and the con-sequences it will face in the World Court for multiple charges of War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity. That's a high price, a very high price to pay for a Christian epiphany.

The argument that the film will generate anti-Semitism is smoke and mirrors.  The argument that it may provide the catalyst needed to expose Zionism for what it is, is true.  And as the Bible teaches, the truth will set US and Israel free. TOP  PRINT

*Israel receives 40% of the entire foreign aid budget each year from the US, a minimum of $350 Billion per year,
From 1973-2002, Israel, a country of just 6 million people has cost the United States $1.6 trillion. If divided by today's population, that is more than $5,700 per American taxpayer--. Christian Science Monitor,

And these are just a few of the similarities. Even the most militant Israelis, (accounting for approximately 25% of the population) compare themselves to Nazi Germany as this January 25th, 2004 article illustrates: TOP

 

Jewish settlers: 'We control America'

 

Al-Khalil, Jan 25 - Jewish settlers in Al-Khalil told Palestinians that 'we are the strongest, we control America from Los Angeles to New York and the stupid Americans know it'.
 

The exchange hap-pened during a violent a brawl when dozens of settlers tried to prevent Palestinians from using a road outside the Ibrahimi mosque in Al-Khalil on Saturday.

The settlers, some of whom carried automatic rifles, said they would massacre the Palestinians sooner or later if they didn't leave' Eretz Yisrael' (the land of Israel).
TOP

Upon hearing this, one young Palestinian re-torted: "
So you want to do to us what Hitler and the Gestapo did to you many years ago?"

 

"This is exactly what we will do to you. Call us Nazis, call us Gestapo, we don't care. And the world won't help you. Because we control America," replied the settlers.

A few minutes later, the settlers began physically assaulting the Palestinian youths and a serious scuffle ensued, lasting for half an hour.
TOP

Eventually, three Israeli army jeeps arrived and crack Israeli soldiers assaulted and phy-sically beat the Pale-stinians for daring to 'speak to the settlers in this way'.


At least five Pale-stinians were briefly detained. The settlers of Al-Khalil have been described by many Israeli writers, intellectuals and even army officers as 'a Gestapo-Like Mafia'.
IRIB PERSIAN NEWS PAGE

This article is not an isolated incident; it is just the most recent.  Israeli paper Ha'aretz Daily and numerous other publications including the BBC, The London Guardian, CNN International and Counter Punch regularly report such incidents and sentiments.  Dr. Armitage's statement, "They're essentially doing the same thing that was done to them…It's exactly what Hitler did to the Jews" is accurate.  The word "exactly" is open to debate but the sentiment behind it, that there are strong correlations between Zionists and Nazis is accurate.  It is not anti-Semitic. It is terrifying.  TOP

Hitler used as justification for actions the 1915 genocide of Armenians by the Turks, which they still deny, in which women were burned alive and entire families tortured and slaughtered; others endeared a trial of tears, much like our own American Indians, before they were massacred.  He reasoned nobody remembered that.  Why would anyone care or remember the Jews, Catholics, mentally ill, homosexuals, handicap, gypsies and communists?  Hitler banked on apathy, ignorance and propaganda that intimidates those who speak out to cover his tracks. TOP

Afterwards with 12-million dead in Hitler's Holocaust, (Total fatalities for World War II are: 60-million people killed-- 41-million civilians and 19-million military personnel) the world swore, never again would this happen.  By censoring public debate, circumventing the First Amendment rights of Americans to discuss truthfully the Israeli / Palestinian conflict through apathy, ignorance and propaganda induced fear, it is occurring again. 

History will hold US responsible.  Denial failed to exonerate the Germans. What makes Americans think we are different?  Our culpability is equal to Israel's in creating this new holocaust. We pay for it.  We promote it. We vote for it and through denial, we allow it.  When those brave enough speak, we mentally castrate them with vile accusations of anti-Semitism or self-hating Jew allowing us to return to ignorance and passive acceptance.  The truth though not convenient, is not anti-Semitic. TOP

 

Conclusion

Dr. Armitage represents the latest victim of the ADL's clandestine war on First Amendment.  To date the ADL and its supporters have effectively silenced journalists, professors, peace activists, US Presidents and politicians placing us as a nation on very dangerous ground. The irony is, we the American public allow it. The ADL and its supporters are powerless without American consent.  The time has come to withdraw that consent.  Assisting Dr. Armitage provides an excellent starting point.

Dr. Armitage is not alone, nor the first professor to endure the targeting of the ADL and its supporters.  The list remains long with casualties including academic truth, justice, freedom and most importantly the forfeiture of American values, credibility and morals here and overseas. Their campaign to promote historical revisionism as it happens endangers America's future. Keeping America ignorant is in the ADL's best interests, but it is not in America's best interests. We can stop it.

Americans have the power to insure Dr. Leighton Armitage and others stating the truth remain the last casualties of historical censorship. By censoring what Americans hear, think and discuss through the defamation of our teachers, journalists and politicians, the ADL and its supporters are preventing Americans from knowing and understanding the truth and atrocities we support.


Protesting the incursion of this special interest's agenda on the American mind is not anti-Semitic. Their agenda, promoting  ideas and policies of apartheid, oppression and racism are anti-American and these policies violate the US Constitution.  Laws exist to deal with those who lie.  People should not be terrorized and defamed when they tell or teach the truth. Nobody, not the government, individual or a special interest lobby has the right to censor the truth in America.

Palestinians

1,789 deaths in Palestine is equivalent to: 178,900 Americans Killed.  This is equivalent to 435 Americans killed every day.

10,136 injuries in Palestine is equivalent to: 1,013,600 Americans Injured, roughly the entire population of Portland, Oregon.  This is equivalent to 2,466 Americans injured every day.

Israelis

162 deaths in Israel is equivalent to: 8,100 Americans Killed 
This is equivalent to 19 Americans Killed Every Day
