The White House can blame itself the
next time Israeli settlers torch a mosque near Nablus
July 26, 2012
The White House condemns
the torching of a mosque, yet respectable Americans contribute to a yeshiva
whose rabbi said it’s okay to kill gentile babies. It is no surprise that the
American administration tacitly, if unenthusiastically, accepted the excuse
that the map of national priority zones the cabinet approved on Sunday does not
violate the decision to freeze construction in the settlements.
How can President Barack
Obama object to furthering education in a settlement like Yitzhar, located in
the heart of the West Bank?
After all, his own tax revenues contribute to the flourishing of the Od Yosef Chai Shechem yeshiva, the settlement’s crowning glory.
After all, his own tax revenues contribute to the flourishing of the Od Yosef Chai Shechem yeshiva, the settlement’s crowning glory.
This is the same yeshiva
whose rabbi said it is permissible to kill gentile babies because of “the
future danger that will arise if they are allowed to grow into evil people like
their parents.”
In his latest book, the
head of the yeshiva, Yitzhak Shapira, who bears the honorable title of rabbi,
even permits killing anyone “who, through his remarks and so forth, weakens our
kingdom” (Obama, beware!).
On November 17, this
column reported that the Education Ministry’s division for Torah institutions
transferred more than NIS 1 million to this yeshiva in 2006 and 2007. The
Welfare Ministry made do with a mere NIS 150,000.
A report on donations
submitted by the yeshiva to the registrar of nonprofit organizations revealed
that the American public also participates in financing the message coming out
of Yitzhar. It states that in 2007 and 2008, the yeshiva received NIS 102,547
from an American foundation known as the Central Fund of Israel.
The American investigative
reporter Philip Weiss says on his web site (mondoweiss.net) that money given to
this fund is considered a tax-deductible donation. That means the thousands of
shekels the fund sent to the settlement of Yitzhar were deducted from the
donors’ annual tax payments to the American treasury.
According to the fund’s
latest financial statement, it gave some $8 million to religious organizations
in 2006, earmarked for establishing synagogues and schools, aiding the needy
and “urgent security needs.”
The fund’s headquarters
are located on the third floor of the Marcus Brothers Textiles store on Sixth
Avenue in Manhattan. Its director is Jay Marcus, a resident of the settlement
of Efrat.
His mother, Hadassah, is
the fund’s president and his father, Arthur, is vice president. Both parents
live in New York.
The Washington Post’s
David Ignatius recently reported that according to statements filed with the
U.S. Internal Revenue Service, funds like that of the Marcus family sent some
$33.4 million, tax free, to organizations affiliated with the settlements in
2004-07.
‘Large forces, extensive
damage’
So the next time the White
House spokesman condemns the torching of a mosque near Nablus, some reporter
ought to ask him why respectable American citizens contribute to the Od Yosef
Chai Shechem yeshiva, one of whose leading rabbis wrote the following
incendiary words of incitement:
“[Civil] Administration inspectors have not dared to enter Yitzhar since the freeze edict. Their experience with Yitzhar, and its heat, are responsible for the fact that every entry into the settlement by hostile elements requires large forces and ends with extensive damage to army and police equipment, even greater damage to Arab persons and property, and a region that continues to burn in every direction for several days” ~ Rabbi Yosef Elitzur, Hakol Hayehudi, December 4, 2009.
At the same time, U.S.
officials could consider how a tax exemption for donors to Friends of Ateret
Cohanim and The City of David jibes with official American policy regarding the
presence of right-wing Jewish organizations in the heart of Palestinian
neighborhoods in Jerusalem’s Holy Basin.
Human rights organizations
and Jewish peace activists in the United States have started giving information
to the authorities about foundations that support dubious right-wing
organizations in Israel. They are asking why the administration only shuts down
funds that send charitable donations to associations affiliated with Hamas.
CUT OFF FROM THEIR FAMILIES
Gilad Shalit’s prolonged
isolation from the outside world is one of the most serious and justified
complaints Israel has against his captors in Hamas’ leadership. But last week,
Israel’s Supreme Court gave its stamp of approval to a prolonged lack of
contact between hundreds of Palestinian prisoners and their parents, children
and grandchildren.
For two and a half years,
starting shortly after Hamas seized control of the Gaza Strip, the Israeli
authorities have barred relatives of more than 500 prisoners from entering
Israeli territory.
But a panel of three
justices unanimously rejected a petition from a group of prisoners and 13 human
rights organizations that argued, among other things, that the Fourth Geneva
Convention entitles every prisoner “to receive visitors, especially near relatives,
at regular intervals and as frequently as possible.” Whenever possible,
prisoners should be allowed to visit their homes in “urgent cases,” the
convention adds.
The petitioners also noted
that paragraph 1 of the Prisons Ordinance states that visits are one of the
most important means of contact between the prisoner and his family and
friends. A visit can make it easier for a prisoner to endure his confinement
and encourage him in times of crisis.
REGULAR VISITS
Following a ruling by the
European Court of Justice, the petition pointed out, Turkey allowed family
members to pay weekly visits to Abdullah Ocalan, the head of the Kurdish PKK
organization, whose death sentence was commuted to life imprisonment and who is
detained under special security conditions.
But nevertheless, there is
a difference. Unlike Gilad Shalit, who in three years has received only one or
two letters from his parents, the Palestinian prisoners are visited regularly
by the Red Cross and are in mail and telephone contact with their families.
On the other hand, unlike
Hamas ~ which many countries define as a terrorist organization ~ Israel is
committed to upholding international treaties and is supposed to abide by
different humanitarian rules.
Moreover, and Notwithstanding {The Obvious}....in unreported news...
ReplyDeleteThe trial before the court in Amsterdam started ‘in style’; De Kreek, wearing a T-shirt with ‘I love Jews’ on the front and ‘Against Zionism’ on the back, challenged the court for bias and asked the presiding Judge (Mr. Korthals Altes) immediately if his name was Cohen.
http://www.israelect.com/reference/Willie-Martin/
De Kreek - two backpacks with books and papers with him throughout the session -
http://www.palestine-encyclopedia.com/EPP/TheAuthor.htm
His next attempt to drag out the session was a last-moment request to call a number of witnesses: Daniel Veenboer of the MDI, Geert Wilders, Ronny Naftaniel and Elise Friedmann of the CIDI, Hans Jansen, MP Jeanine Hennis-Plasschaert, Sille Jansen, British Rabbi Aaron Cohen of Naturei Karta,Director Alfred Edelstein of Jewish broadcasting Coporation and last but not least a woman he had met in the hallway "who is of Jewish origin and is afraid of Zionists’.
http://revisionistreview.blogspot.com/2012/07/israeli-legislator-vandalizes-new.html
All these requests were rejected. The prosecution and the court believed both that it was too short a day and not important enough.
For nearly three hours the talmudic magistrate questioned the "ACCUSED" about his statements and publications with {dis}respect to Jews and the Holocaust{TM}. With "pathological tenacity", De Kreek defended his findings of FACT and only made matters improve for himself....and Mankind.
An anthology of truthfulness from the accused by lying "Jews":
-Jews themselves caused the Holocaust, or in any case the Zionists, which are not Israelites, NOR HEBREWS, but {zio}Nazis.
-The Holocaust did not happen....there are far fewer so-called "Jews" killed than 6 million.
-Theodor Herzl incited all pogroms, the Rothschild family financed IG Farben and Auschwitz.
-
-Ashkenazi Jews are not HEBREWS because they are not descended from the Children of Israel, nor are the Sephardim. Zionists are Luciferian religious zealots and therefore are real Jews.
-"Holocaust" is a concept from the Kabbalah, which states that after the Holocaust, The Holocaust was conceived and performed by Jews on Jews, the Zionists built Auschwitz.
-Many Jews who died were not Jews, because Jews are not a race but a Synagogue of Satan so-called religion of Lying Murderers Just like Jesus said @ John 8:44...Dig it.
"My publications are in the interest of the Truth", he asserted, "since nobody knows all this. The court is confused, the prosecutor is confused and the judiciary in general is confused".
And so it went on and on. De Kreek said that ‘Even the Zionists of the CIDI and MDI realize that my websites are not anti-Semitic’
To top it off, he shared the idea that the word ‘Nazi’ really comes from ‘Asheknazi’, to which the judge replied innocently "I always believed the Jewish History "KILL HITLER" Channel that ‘Nazi’ was an abbreviation of National Socialism”.

They certainly went out of their way to make him sound like quite the madman in that article, didn't they?
