Friday, February 17, 2006    Deceptions  Sell Israel to the American Public

"It is still  difficult for many to believe that a deception of such magnitude is  possible. Deceptions and false declarations have been the standard in  the politics of the powerful, and certainly are in Israel's policy  toward the Palestinians from the start." - Tanya Reinhart Israel and  Palestine

Deceptions that the American public have been  immersed in are extreme with regard to Israel. The misrepresentations  are intended to present a particular picture of Israel in the minds of  the American people in order to hide the reality of what Israel actually  is and what is actually happening and what actually happened in  Palestine.

"In my entire experience with American journalism, I  have never found anything as extreme, sustained, and omnipresent" -  Alison Weir

If you can start to look at the facts, you will see  how the basics have been misrepresented to the public. For example, what  is presented is something that tries to present what Zionist Jews did  in 1948 as reasonable. What is not said is that the rights of the  overwhelming majority were violated, 67% of the people of Palestine had  their rights violated, they did not want their land chopped up into 7  sections which is what the UN resolution suggested be done.

In  this example we can see how the manipulation is done. What the public is  usually told is that "The jews accepted, the Arabs rejected" the UN  plan. By omitting the key facts, such as the fact that it was a  majority, 67% of the people, which did not want their land chopped up  into pieces to serve the racist agenda of a minority, 33%. It is simply  not reasonable for 33% of a population to demand that religious/ethnic  land divisions be imposed upon the populations, this violates basic  democracy. So these facts are suppressed and all we hear, and we hear it  without the background facts about the rights of the majority, how big  that majority was, and how fundamentally unjust the proposal was. And  that fact that it was a proposal and that people had every right to  reject it. It is a basic democratic principle that the majority of the  people get to determine their own fate. It really is a dramatic example,  look how it is always presented and then look at what is left out of  the typical depiction of what happened in 1948.

Zionist Jews  wanted to create a state based on religious/ethnic background thus  making the people who are not Jews second class citizens in their own  land and the people that the Jews wanted to impose this are were the  overwhelming majority of the population living there. The injustice of  what happened is suppressed by lies of omission. the American public is  not being given all the critical facts. All the public hears is constant  propaganda that tries to tie the concept of democracy to Israel while  it hides the fact that the creation of Israel was an extreme violation  of basic democracy and is a continuing violation of democracy.

The Phrase "Right to Exist" is another  Manipulative Trick

"The whole question of recognizing the  right of a state to exist was invented solely for Israel. People,  on the other hand, have a right to exist. So the people who live on the  land - Israelis and Palestinians - have a right to live in security and  peace." - Noam Chomsky

In International affairs, nations  recognize each other and make agreements, this idea that people must  accept the "right" of Israel to be a racist state which maintains a  racist quota by refusing to undo the crime of ethnically cleansing  hundreds of thousands of non-Jews is outrageous.

The whole  concept is a sleazy and dishonest attempt to link the existence of  people with the existence of a discriminatory state based upon a  privileged class of people. racism is not a 'right'. The Jews in  Israel don't have a right to discriminate agianst non-Jews. let's be crystal clear about what it is that we  mean by "Israel" and what this Israel is existing as Ending  the Jewish supremacist system is considered "Israel ceasing to exist".  Not that ending the supremacist system will lead to "Israel ceasing to  exist" but that ending the supremacist system would be by definition  "ending Israel".

In the 1970's, when the PLO was willing to  recognize Israel and agree to peace, the Israelis invented this concept  "right to exist"and demanded that the PLO accept that it is legitimate,  that it is a 'right', to dispose hundreds of thousands of people because  of their religion and to discriminate against people because of their  religion.

It is like demanding that a black person say that  whites have a right to set up a "white state" and force a percentage of  blacks out of the country to create what racists consider a desirable  demographic.

People deserve to have equal rights regardless of  what religion they are. Do you not realize that the Zionists set up a  JEWISH state and not a democratic state? Why do you think it is OK for a  minority of a population to ethnically cleanse hundreds of thousands of  people because of their religion? This is exactly what the Zionists did  to non-Jews in Palestine!  

The  misleading story often told is that            "Jews declared Israel and then they were attacked."  The fact is, from  November 1947 to May 1948 the Zionists were already on the offensive  and had already attacked Arabs. In the  months before Israel was declared, the Zionists had driven  300,000 non-Jews off their land. In the months before Israel  was declared, the Zionists had seized land beyond the proposed Jewish  State.  
The fact is, Jews were only 33% of the  population of Palestine in 1947. Why in the world would you think it is  legitimate for Zionist Jews, who were less than 33% of a population, to  seize land and carve up the land into 7 parts? Why in the world should  67% of a population ever accept that? These population stats, which  highlight just how undemocratic the UN proposal really was, are almost  never mentioned in US media. 

Do you think  it would be OK to change the U.S. into a "WHITE State"?

Do you  know that the U.S. is more white than Israel is Jewish? Why do you think  it is OK to discriminate against 20% of Israel's population just  because they are not Jews? It would be no more legitimate for white  Americans to declare America a "White State" than it is for Jews to  declare Israel a "Jewish State."

Ending the Jewish supremacist  system is considered "Israel ceasing to exist". Not that ending the  supremacist system will lead to "Israel ceasing to exist" but that  ending the supremacist system would be by definition  "ending Israel". Zionists consider the racist foundation to be an  essential characteristic of Israel. It would not be Israel if all  citizens had equal rights. What this means is that a non-Jew cannot call  for equal rights without being accused of calling for the "destruction  of Israel". What isn't told is that ending the discrimination means that  Israel ends since Israel is a system of discrimination.  To end the discrimination means to end Israel.

Israeli Arabs not  only don't have equal rights but the majority of Israeli Jews don't  even think they should have equal rights. More  than half the Jewish population of Israel - 53 percent - is opposed to  full equal rights for Israeli Arabs, according to a survey conducted  last month by the Israel Democracy Institute. 

What would we  think of whites in America who insist that Blacks should not have equal  rights? You need to open your eyes to the reality of what Israel  actually is. Allowing ALL people, regardless of their religion, to have  equal rights means the end of Israel because Israel is a system that denies full equal  rights to all people.

 The root  problem of the Israel and Palestine conflict is that the Jews running  Israel are unwilling to allow non-Jews to have equal rights. That is the  fundamental problem and cause of the conflict.

This  concept 'right to exist' was in fact invented, as far as I can tell, in  the 1970s when there was general international agreement, including the  Arab states and the PLO, that Israel should have the rights of every  state in the international system. And therefore, in an effort to  prevent negotiations and a diplomatic settlement, the U.S. and Israel  insisted on raising the barrier to something that nobody’s going to  accept. Certainly, the Palestinians can’t accept it. They’re not  going to accept Israel’s existence but also the legitimacy of its  existence and the legitimacy of their dispossession. Why should they  accept that? Why should anyone accept it?


An Israeli Jew Tells the Truth About The  'Anti-Semitism" Trick

Shulamit Aloni appeared on Democracy  Now. Shulamit Aloni is a former Knesset member who headed the Meretz  Party in Israel. She was interviewed by Amy Goodman on Democracy NOW!

Amy Goodman  asked her what she thought of the fact that often when people speak out  against Israel policies they get labeled "anti-Semitic". Shulamit Aloni  answered "well  it is a trick, we always use it."

 Thank you for giving me a response to the "Are you saying Israel  doesn't have a right to Exist" question which is used to steer people  away from the truth.  

My answer from now on, "Racism has no  right to exist, therefore the nation state of Israel, a racist political  state, has no right to exist."

 US support for Israel in polls is broad but very shallow— given that  it is based on what people are told. it wouldn't take much to reverse  it, and due to overreaching by Israel's supporters, it may well happen.

Indeed,  it had already happened on college campuses, despite the well-financed  efforts of Hillel,  Daniel Pipes, MEMRI, et al.
