THE PROBLEM OF JEWISH SELF-DEFENSE

Is it possible for one country A to cause another country B to assist its own enemies and commit suicide? Yes, so long as certain conditions obtain.

By "committing suicide" I mean that since the people who compose the organs of state feel duty-bound to carry out the orders of their superiors, what is needed, mechanically, is for country A to corrupt the political leadership and the media of country B. If this is attained, then country A, through the corrupted political leaders and media in country B, can cause the organs of state in country B to assist the enemies of country B.

A scenario where this would be maximally easy is one where country B is very small and has lots of enemies, whereas country A is very large – at the limit, a superpower (e.g. the United States). A superpower will certainly have the wherewithal to corrupt the leadership and the media of a small country, in which case it can make that leadership surrender Gaza and the West Bank aka Judea and Samaria to terrorists who never stop firing at its civilians, and whose ideology is the total extermination of those civilians.

What is the problem with the Israeli ruling elite? Is it stupidity? Or is it something else?

“…The [Israeli] government’s policy of hiding incriminating information about [the Arab PLO's Yasser] Arafat from the public was dramatically if indirectly illustrated by an episode in 1994 [the year that the Oslo 'peace' process was jump-started] when Shimon Peres, conversing with Arafat at the Erez checkpoint and apparently unaware that his comments were being recorded by a French filmmaker, threatened to reveal to the media Arafat’s flouting of his Oslo obligations. Peres did not go into detail about Arafat’s violations but did regard them as serious enough that their revelation would be a ‘catastrophe’ for Arafat and would, among its consequences, ‘kill the Arab/Palestinian story in the American Congress.’”

Introduction
There appears to be a growing consensus among friends of Israel, especially in the wake of Israel’s war with Hezbollah, that Israeli leaders have been radically endangering the security of the Jewish state with their ‘peace’ policies. Within this consensus, however, there is a controversy as to why. One hypothesis says that Israeli leaders, for many years, have been uniformly and dramatically stupid. This view is popular among Jewish patriots, who (a) seem to find it natural that pathological stupidity should be abundant among Jewish leaders, and (b) possess Buddhist patience as they wait for their mentally challenged leaders to come to their senses. An alternative hypothesis says that the mental powers of Israeli leaders are fine -- simply, they are corrupt traitors.
No hypothesis is correct just because we like it, or because it agrees with our prejudices, or because the alternative is too scary. A scientist must provisionally accept or reject a hypothesis on the basis of the current balance of material evidence that either supports or undermines it. What I will do below is contribute a brief analysis of evidence speaking to this particular controversy: Are Israeli leader’s idiots or traitors?
Since, in the last 20 years, the most important policies relevant to Israeli security have been those connected with the Oslo so-called ‘peace’ process and its offshoots (‘Road Map,’ ‘Disengagement,’ ‘Convergence’), the most important issues to consider are the following:
1) What has the Arab PLO (Arab Palestine Liberation Organization) been trying to achieve through Oslo?;
2) How aware have Israeli leaders been of the Arab PLO’s intentions?; and
3) What have Israeli leaders done with their knowledge of Arab PLO intentions?
Once the evidence has been examined, we will see that the answers to the above questions are the following:
1) The Arab PLO has always and to this day meant to exterminate the Israeli Jews;
2) Israeli leaders have always been perfectly aware of this; and
3) Israeli leaders have sought to convince the Israeli public otherwise, covering up for the Arab PLO and representing it as a ‘partner for peace.’ The point of this has been to convince Israelis to accept the Arab PLO inside the Jewish state as the government of the Arab population living in the West Bank aka Judea and Samaria and Gaza.
This does not support the ‘stupidity’ hypothesis.
If the ‘treason’ hypothesis is correct, then it will mean that a pattern witnessed in World War II -- when many mainstream Jewish leaders betrayed their fellow Jews even as the European Jewish population was being exterminated -- is repeating itself (see Part 0, for how Jewish leaders sabotaged an anti-Nazi boycott in 1933 that came within an inch of destroying Hitler after he came to power, Part 1, for the treasonous behaviors of Diaspora Jewish leaders during WWII, and Part 4 for the treasonous behaviors of Israeli leaders).[1] If ordinary Jews do not now quickly defend themselves from their current leadership, millions of innocent Jews will die again.
Time has run out.

Anybody critical of Oslo was loudly equated by the Israeli government and media with the Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists as an ‘enemy of peace.’  

The Oslo process, from the point of view of the Arab PLO
_____________________________________________
In The Oslo Syndrome, historian Kenneth Levin writes:
“Shortly after signing the Declaration of Principles and the famous handshake between [Arab PLO leader Yasser] Arafat and [Israeli prime minister] Yitzhak Rabin on the White House lawn, Arafat was declaring to his Arab/Palestinian constituency over Jordanian television that Oslo was to be understood in terms of the [Arab PLO’s] Arab/Palestine National Council’s 1974 decision. This was a reference to the so-called Plan of Phases, according to which the Arab/Palestine Liberation Organization [Arab PLO] would acquire whatever territory it could by negotiations, then use that land as a base for pursuing its ultimate goal of Israel’s annihilation.”[2]
The words “Israel’s annihilation” are not synonymous with ‘negotiation to obtain a Arab PLO state’; their meaning is closer to ‘the murder of every Jew now living in Israel.’ And in fact the Arab PLO constitution calls for the extermination of the Jewish people.[3] So Yasser Arafat’s so-called Plan of Phases -- his entire approach to the Oslo accords -- looks like a ‘Trojan Horse’ strategy.
The expression ‘Trojan Horse’ is taken from the ancient Greek work The Iliad. In this story, a large coalition of Greeks attack the city of Troy just because the wife of a Greek king had eloped with a Trojan prince. After ten whole years of unremitting bloodshed, the Greeks get tired of not being able to pierce Troy’s defenses, so they invent a ruse: they build a huge wooden horse and leave it on the beach as an apparent gift to the victorious Trojan defenders, then pretend to leave in their ships. In reality, the Greeks have parked their ships in a nearby bay, where they wait for Odysseus, Achilles, and a few other Greek soldiers squirreled inside the hollow horse to let them in while Troy sleeps. As planned, after the hopelessly gullible Trojans bring into their city the wooden horse, the Greeks inside it creep out under cover of dark, murder the guards, open the city gates to their brethren, and then every Trojan man, woman, and child is slaughtered. The city is burned to the ground.
Now compare: In 1948, after the Arabs rejected a legal UN vote which is non-binding with no legal standing, to create an Arab and a Jewish state in what had been British Mandate ‘Palestine,’ the Arabs announced that, rather than live peacefully side by side, they much preferred to exterminate the Jews in the Middle East. Azzam Pasha, Secretary General of the Arab League, proudly announced:
“This will be a war of extermination and a momentous massacre which will be spoken of like the Mongolian massacres and the Crusades.”[4]
This was, mind you, immediately after the Holocaust.
And this was only the first of many genocidal attacks launched by the Arab neighbors of Israel (see here for a review).[5] Each attack was launched because the previous one had failed to annihilate Israel, so after a while the repeated failure started to wear on the Arabs, just as the Greeks had also become annoyed at their inability to destroy Troy. Thus, after many years of failed genocidal attacks launched with conventional armies against Israel’s borders, the Arabs decided, after the defeat they suffered in the 1973 Yom Kippur war, to do like the Greeks and employ a ruse to get the genocidal soldiers inside Israel’s walls: this ruse was Yasser Arafat’s 1974 ‘Plan of Phases.’
The idea was simple: like the Greeks, appear to concede defeat, and make a gift in exchange for an invitation into the Jewish state. The gift was the promise of peace. Once inside, however, the Arab PLO would use its power over the Arab population living there to indoctrinate it into the most hateful and violent anti-Jewish ideology, proceeding thereafter with the mass killing.[6] This Plan of Phases, thanks to US pressure, became the Oslo ‘peace’ process.[7]

In 2001, a top Arab PLO official candidly explained the strategy to the Arab press by making an explicit comparison to The Iliad:
“...Faisal Husseini, the top Arab PLO official in Jerusalem...[was] quoted as likening the Oslo accords to a ‘Trojan horse.’ ...the weekly Al-Arabi quotes Husseini as calling the Oslo accords ‘just a temporary procedure, or just a step towards something bigger…the liberation of all historical Palestine aka The Land of Israel from the (Jordan) river to the (Mediterranean) sea, even if this means that the conflict will last for another thousand years or for many generations.’”[8]
But Faisal Husseini’s recent explanation was not really needed. As mentioned above, Arafat made his Plan of Phases known to his fellow Arabs in 1974, long before the Arab PLO was brought into the Jewish state. And, as we learn above, Arafat repeated the Arab PLO's intent to his followers in 1993, over Jordanian television, and immediately after the White House ceremony in which Oslo was agreed to: the Oslo process, Arafat explained, would be his Plan of Phases.


Did Israeli leaders understand that the Arab PLO always meant to exterminate the Israeli Jews?

In bringing the Arab PLO into the Jewish state, Israeli leaders revived the Arab PLO.

____________________________
It is true that Arafat did not loudly explain his Plan of Phases to the Western press, but to his Arab audiences. However, Israel has an intelligence service naturally equipped with speakers of Arabic who monitor the statements Israel’s Arab enemies make in their native language. This means that, of course, Israeli leaders had to know about Arafat’s Plan of Phases as soon as it was promulgated. They also had to know what Arafat was saying on Jordanian television even as he was ‘agreeing’ to Oslo.
But even should anybody argue that Israel’s famed intelligence service is in fact so pathetically inept that nobody in it ever thought to monitor what the anti-Semitic Arabs say in Arabic, this will not work as an excuse because Arafat’s intentions occasionally did surface in the Western press, in English. For example, there is Faisal Husseinis statement above, which appeared in the Western press. Less recently, right as the Oslo ‘peace’ process -- meant to bring the Arab PLO into Israel -- was getting under way (1994), the Evening Standard (London) reported on a speech by Arafat in which he straightforwardly explained his ‘Trojan Horse’ view of the Oslo process to his followers.[9] So Israeli leaders obviously knew what the Arab PLO’s intentions were. And yet they never informed the Israeli public, defending instead the claim that the Arab PLO had changed, and that by inviting the Arab PLO into the Jewish state they were supposedly protecting the security of ordinary Israelis!
Not only that. My reader should keep foremost in his or her mind that, in bringing the Arab PLO into the Jewish state, Israeli leaders revived the Arab PLO. How so? They revived it because this anti-Semitic terrorist organization had already been defeated, and was languishing far away from Israel, in Tunisian exile, when Oslo began.[10] This point is crucial.
Now, I have found that many -- perhaps most -- Jewish patriots, when they are confronted with the above, feel a quite insistent -- even passionate -- urge to interpret all this as stupidity on the part of Israeli politicians. In my view this kind of innocence reveals that Jews suffer from pathologies of reasoning that impair their ability to think clearly about their self defense, and which make it easier for anti-Semites to kill large numbers of Jews. In order to defend the Jewish people we must therefore expose these pathologies of reasoning. One way to do this is to put the geopolitical problems that Jews face in personal terms. Why? Because the fog of propaganda that surrounds the geopolitical problem is absent in the problem's translation to the personal level, so it is easier to think about.
Thus, consider the following thought experiment. John Doe knows (crucial point) that a criminal has promised to murder John’s family as soon as he can get into John’s home. But what does John do? He gives said criminal the house keys. After his family has been murdered, what will happen to John? Naturally, he will either be quickly convicted for conspiring to murder his wife and children, or else he will be quickly declared insane. What is certain is that no court will accept the argument that John -- in earnest stupidity -- believed this was the best way to protect his family. Why? Because nobody, quite simply, is that stupid.
The only way to argue that Israeli leaders somehow meant well when they brought the Arab PLO -- an organization pledged to murder every Jew-- to become the government over the Arabs in the Jewish state is therefore to insist that Israeli leaders didn’t understand what the Arab PLO meant to do. I have already shown above that this cannot be defended, given how dramatic and consistent Arafat’s very public explanations of his intentions. But this point cannot be emphasized too much, so consider the following:
“Allusions to the [‘Trojan Horse’] Plan of Phases became a staple in Arafat’s addresses in Arabic, with more than a dozen such references within a few weeks of the White House ceremony [the ceremony that officially inaugurated the Oslo process!]. So also were Arafat’s comparisons of Oslo to Mohammed’s dealings with the Quraysh [Banu Qurayzah], a [Jewish!] tribe on the Arabian peninsula. Mohammed negotiated a treaty with the Quraysh (a Jewish Tribe in Medina) in 628, but two years later, when his forces had grown stronger, he attacked and defeated them [in fact, he exterminated them]. Likewise featured in Arafat’s speeches during this time were calls to Jihad, or holy war, against Israel.
Arafat’s arrival in the territories, in July, 1994, and his assumption of control over Arab/Palestinian schools and an expanded Arab/Palestinian media system were marked by the promoting of these and related themes in Arab/Palestinian school curricula and media. Arab/Palestinian children were taught that all of ‘Palestine’ from the Jordan to the Mediterranean -- that is, the West Bank aka Judea and Samaria, Gaza, and all of Israel -- belong to them and is holy Islamic land. Jews have no historic connections to the land and no legal claim to any of it but are merely evil usurpers. Arab/Palestinian children were also to learn that it is not only their right but their obligation to dedicate themselves to Israel’s destruction. Arafat-controlled Arab/Palestinian television, including children’s television, and other Arab/Palestinian media outlets promoted the same claims and the same agenda.”[11]
To get a sense for how extreme the Jew-killing propaganda of the Arab PLO, consider only that Friday sermons transmitted by Arab/Palestinian Authority TV will do such things as shame Arabs who have not yet strapped a bomb around their own child and sent him to go blow himself up in the middle of Jewish men, women, and children.[12]
If you live in the West it is of course relatively difficult to become aware of this, as it hardly ever surfaces in the Western press, but the Israeli government and media, naturally, have always known precisely what is going on in the Arab PLO’s media. So what have they done with this information? They have covered it up, lest the Israeli public and Diaspora Jews oppose the Oslo process that has progressively empowered the Arab PLO inside the Jewish state.
“The Labor-Meretz coalition government was typically silent on the anti-Israel indoctrination. At the same time, the Israeli media...enthusiastically supportive of the Oslo accords, supported this silence by suppressing coverage of Arafat’s incitement-laden speeches and of the prominence of the same themes in Arab/Palestinian schools and media. Indeed, a kind of underground system evolved to monitor hate-mongering in Arab/Palestinian school texts and media in the absence of coverage by the Israeli government and mainstream Israeli news outlets.”[13]
A cover up suggests malice, not stupidity.
Also, against the view that the Israeli ruling elite is stupid, there is the additional problem that, immediately after Yasser Arafat was brought from Tunis and installed in the West Bank and Gaza, terrorism against innocent Israelis quintupled.[14] Since Arafat’s promise had been that, if brought into Israel, terrorism would end (for which promise he was given the Nobel Peace Prize![15]), the automatic sharp rise in terrorism against innocent Israelis should have put an immediate end to the Oslo process. After all, this is what Israeli leaders Yitzhak Rabin and Shimon Peres had famously and explicitly promised the Israelis: that if terrorism did not go away, the Oslo process would swiftly die.
But rather than abort the Oslo process when the violence increased five-fold upon Arafat’s arrival, the Israeli and Western governments and media protested that the ‘other’ terrorist organizations, Hamas and Islamic Jihad, supposedly not allied with Arafat, were to blame for this violence. (In fact, HIR has shown that Hamas and Islamic Jihad have always worked in close cooperation with the Arab PLO to kill Jews and any Arabs opposed to such killings[16]). In the face of ongoing terrorism, the Israeli and Western governments and media accused anybody opposed to more Oslo concessions to the Arab PLO of supposedly playing right into the terrorist attempt to ‘ruin the peace process.’ In this way anybody critical of Oslo was loudly equated by the Israeli government and media with the Hamas and Islamic Jihad terrorists as an ‘enemy of peace,’ whereas the Arab PLO itself was consistently represented as the supposed ‘partner for peace.’ With this cover story, the Israeli government and media defended the rush to give the Arab PLO more and more power as a strategy, supposedly, to give Arafat the tools to control the violence. A sharp increase in terrorism thus became the ‘rationale’ to push for giving Arafat more power more quickly!
In The Oslo Syndrome, historian Kenneth Levin writes:
“The Israeli government’s response to the ongoing violence, and to Arafat’s failure to fulfill his Oslo obligations vis-à-vis terrorism and his, instead, lending support to the terrorist organizations, was muted at best and frequently even protective of Arafat ...The Peace Movement’s supporters in the government, the dominant voices in [Israeli prime minister Yitzhak] Rabin’s coalition, had an answer to such questions: more Israeli concessions. …the more terror, the more the government urged a speeding of the ‘peace process.’”[17]


Shimon Peres

Shimon Peres - “A leader must be like a bus driver... He cannot turn his head all the time to see how the passengers feel.”
____________
To deepen our understanding of the Israeli ruling elite, it is useful to take a close look at one Israeli politician in particular: Shimon Peres.
Kenneth Levin writes:
 “…The government’s policy of hiding incriminating information about Arafat from the public was dramatically if indirectly illustrated by an episode in 1994 [the year that the Oslo process was jump-started] when Shimon Peres, conversing with Arafat at the Erez checkpoint and apparently unaware that his comments were being recorded by a French filmmaker, threatened to reveal to the media Arafat’s flouting of his Oslo obligations. Peres did not go into detail about Arafat’s violations but did regard them as serious enough that their revelation would be a ‘catastrophe’ for Arafat and would, among its consequences, ‘kill the Arab/Palestinian story in the American Congress.’”[18]
This is evidence that Shimon Peres -- in full knowledge of the facts -- has been covering up Arafat’s terrorism. It is not evidence of stupidity.
Who is this Shimon Peres? He is the great architect of the Oslo process.
It is illuminating briefly to review his career because you will see that a certain pattern emerges (I will help out by using italics). Since 1969, Shimon Peres has been a top minister in key positions in the Israeli government, almost uninterruptedly. In 1969 he was appointed Minister of Absorption and in 1970 Minister of Transportation and Communications. In 1974, after a period as Information Minister, he was appointed Minister of Defense (by Yitzhak Rabin). In 1977 he succeeded Rabin as Prime Minister and Labor party leader after the latter resigned. Later that year, Peres led the Labor Party to its first ever electoral defeat when Menachem Begin won the premiership for Likud. Peres led his Labor party to another defeat in 1981, but since his party won more seats than any other in 1984, a coalition government resulted with Peres as prime minister and Yitzhak Shamir of Likud as foreign minister. After two years, they traded places, so Peres became foreign minister in 1986. Peres led his party to another defeat in 1988. But once again there was a coalition government, and Peres served as Vice Premier and Minister of Finance. He left the government in 1990 and was again defeated at the polls in 1992, this time in the Labor primary elections, by Yitzhak Rabin, but Peres became Rabin’s foreign minister when the latter became prime minister, and then succeeded him as prime minister after Rabin’s assassination in 1995. Peres was defeated in the next election by Benjamin Netanyahu in 1996. In 1997 Ehud Barak replaced Peres as Labor party leader, and upon becoming prime minister, Barak appointed Peres to the post of minister for regional development. In 2000 Peres lost his bid to be elected Israeli President (ceremonial head of state) to Moshe Katsav from Likud. When Ariel Sharon became prime minister in 2001, Peres was appointed his foreign minister. He left office briefly in 2003 but then became Sharon’s foreign minister again in 2004.
As HIR has shown, Shimon Peres was already working hard at undermining the security of the Jewish state in the 1980’s,[20] and as we see above, he has had sufficient power in Israel’s government all these years to push through the Oslo process that brought the Arab PLO into the Jewish state -- quite despite the fact that “Peres has never won a national election.”[19] Something is clearly rotten behind the scenes.
How does Shimon Peres feel about his fellow Israelis?
“Shimon Peres...declared with regard to public attitudes and government policy, ‘A leader must be like a bus driver...He cannot turn his head all the time to see how the passengers feel.’”[21]
Shimon Peres’ metaphor of leadership is ill-chosen, for a bus driver can hardly take his passengers wherever he thinks they should go when a majority of these are complaining that they paid for a ticket to a different destination. Never elected to office, Shimon Peres obviously thinks like an autocrat: only his views matter. In light of his preferred policies, perhaps Peres should have said that he is a train conductor (rushing his unwilling passengers to what he insists will be a ‘work’ camp).
  
Other Israeli leaders

Yitzhak Shamir - Benjamin Netanyahu - Ehud Barak - Ariel Sharon 

It is important to point out that the corruption in the Israeli leadership is hardly limited to Shimon Peres and his Labor party.
It was, after all, Yitzhak Shamir from Likud who, under threat from the United States, first assented to the Madrid so-called ‘peace’ talks that became the platform for the Oslo process.[22]
After this, Yitzhak Rabin from Labor, steered by the true controller, his foreign minister Shimon Peres, famously brought the Arab PLO into Israel.
But a majority of Israeli Jews then reacted rationally to the increased terrorism that followed the entrance of the Arab PLO into Israel and chose Benjamin Netanyahu -- on a platform that breathed fire against the Oslo accords -- over Shimon Peres in the election that followed Yitzhak Rabin’s assassination. But despite that, when Benjamin Netanyahu became prime minister, he turned around and, under US pressure, pushed forward the Oslo process with even more energy than his predecessors.[23]
When Ehud Barak -- like Shimon Peres, a Laborite -- was elected afterwards, he rushed to give Arafat and the Syrians everything they wanted, but Arafat, and the Syrian Assad, rejected the offers because their entire political careers are built on the promise of destroying Israel, so they find it easier to stay in power by refusing any diplomatic moves that might create the impression they have recognized the state of Israel.[24]
Under a barrage of Arafat-sponsored terrorism, a majority of Israeli Jews once again reacted rationally and elected Ariel Sharon on his promises to oppose Oslo. Like Yitzhak Shamir and Benjamin Netanyahu, Sharon was from Likud. But likewise -- under US pressure -- Sharon turned around and embraced Oslo policies more fiercely than anybody, cleansing the Jews out of   Gaza (and parts of the West Bank), and giving away this territory to the terrorists, asking in exchange for...nothing at all![25] Sharon’s heir, Ehud Olmert, from the party that Ariel Sharon recently founded, Kadima, was likewise rushing to cleanse remaining Jews from the West Bank (thus completing the total capitulation of Israel to its terrorist enemies) when the war with Hezbollah interrupted him.
Obviously, then, the problem is hardly limited to Shimon Peres and the Labor party. Every Israeli government since the early 1990’s has advanced the Arab PLO’s agenda against the interests -- and against the wishes, expressed at the polls -- of ordinary Israelis.

The Israeli ruling elite has covered up the German Nazi origins of the Arab PLO

Hajj Amin al Husseini - Adolf Hitler

 •
Since May 2003, the Israeli government cannot claim to be unaware that the Arab PLO is a continuation of Adolf Hitler’s Final Solution
•
Ehud Olmert “Israel would be willing to discuss the disputed Shebaa Farms if Lebanon disarms Hezbollah.”

Mahmoud Abbas (a.k.a. Abu Mazen)

In all this, I have not mentioned yet the most dramatic piece of information kept from the Israeli public by the Israeli ruling elite. I saved the worst for last.
It turns out that Al Fattah, the controlling core of the Arab/PLO, was created by Hajj Amin al Husseini, who was as important as Adolf Eichman as an architect of Adolf Hitler’s German Nazi extermination of the European Jews (before that, Hajj Amin had been murdering very large numbers of innocent Jews with terrorist attacks in British Mandate ‘Palestine,’ and it is precisely this expertise that made him so attractive to the German Nazis).[26] Again, Israel has an intelligence service, and it spends millions of shekels a year on it, and Israeli spies are supposed to be investigating the background of the Arab PLO, so it is inconceivable that in all these years they could not document something that I was able to document in two weeks (consult the above footnote).
But suppose that -- still -- you wanted desperately to believe the hypothesis that Israeli leaders were not aware of this easily documented fact, and thus unwittingly brought the continuation of the Holocaust into the Jewish state in total innocence. Even under this hypothesis, it is still impossible to believe that the Israeli government has been innocent of Al Fattah’s Nazi background since 26 May 2003. Why? Because on that day Israel National News (Arutz Sheva) published my first article documenting the Nazi history of Al Fattah,[27] and the Israeli government keeps very close tabs on what Israel National News publishes.
To get a sense for how closely the Israeli government monitors Israel National News, consider only that, for publishing the truth that defends Israel, this media company has been viciously -- and I do mean viciously -- persecuted by the Israeli government. To the point that its radio component, Israel National Radio, had to put its equipment on a ship and broadcast from outside Israel’s territorial waters because it was barred from doing so inside Israel. I know this sounds absurd, but it is true, and you may read about that here:
“On the importance of Israel National Radio (Arutz Sheva)”; Historical and Investigative Research; 30 June 2006; by Francisco Gil-White.http://www.hirhome.com/israel/inr_interview.htm
It is obvious, therefore, that since May 2003, the Israeli government cannot claim to be unaware that the Arab PLO is a continuation of Adolf Hitler’s Final Solution, particularly given that a scandal erupted when I was fired from the University of Pennsylvania for publishing this very documentation in Israel National News, and given that this scandal was covered in the Philadelphia Inquirer, FOX TV, and Israel National News, among other places.[28] This kind of thing happened to many European academics who defended the Jews in the prelude to WWII, and it has been happening to many pro-Jewish academics today (the canary in the coal mine has expired, and the explosion is coming). [29]
No matter. Ariel Sharon pushed through his Unilateral Disengagement from Gaza after I published the documentation on Al Fattah’s Nazi background in Israel and was fired from the University of Pennsylvania for doing so. (By the way, most Israelis are entirely unaware that their country is being turned over to an extension of the German Nazi Final Solution, and that the ground is quickly being prepared for the next great genocide of the Jewish people; if you are an Israeli, or have friends in Israel, one thing you can do is share this information.)
Now, once the corruption of the Israeli elites is understood, it is no longer surprising that an article attacking Israel and defending her terrorist enemies (with blatant fabrications of history) should have been published -- in the middle of Israel’s defensive war against the genocidal Hezbollah! -- in a major Israeli newspaper (see here).[30]Particularly when you consider that the newspaper in question, Ha’aretz, is the “newspaper of Israel’s elites and the most ideologically driven of the nation’s nongovernmental media.”[31] And especially when you consider that the author of this Ha’aretz article, Gideon Levy, is the former personal aide and spokesperson for Shimon Peres, chief architect of Oslo.[32]
Neither is it surprising, once this context is understood, that the current Israeli prime minister, Ehud Olmert, who failed to defend the Israelis in this latest war between Israel and Hezbollah, has now said that “Israel would be willing to discuss the disputed Shebaa Farms if Lebanon disarms Hizbullah.”[33] What is Shebaa Farms? It is a territory in the Golan Heights (lost by Syria after it launched a genocidal war against Israel in 1967[34]) that never belonged to Lebanon, and in fact the UN has already ruled on this question.[35]Moreover, a publicly available Pentagon study concluded that Israel will commit suicide if it returns Golan Heights territory to its genocidal enemies.[36] If Ehud Olmert gives Shebaa Farms to Lebanon, he is really giving it to Hezbollah’s and Lebanon’s master, Syria, and what he is giving Syria is a weapon it can use in its next genocidal war against Israel. So Olmert is rewarding Syria for using Hezbollah to murder innocent Israelis. Of course, it should go without saying that Lebanon -- a country that does not exist (for it is   really an extension of Syria) -- will not disarm Hezbollah; but it is a safe bet that, if he can, Olmert will pretend this did happen so that he can give away -- through ‘Lebanon’ -- a piece of the strategic Golan Heights to the anti-Semitic and genocidal Syrian regime.
Ehud Olmert hardly behaves like the prime minister of Israel -- he behaves like Syria’s hired gun.
But we’ve been here before: former Israeli prime minister Ehud Barak offered the Syrians not only the Golan Heights, but even territory in the Galilee that had always been Israeli! The only reason this didn’t happen is that the Syrian ruler Hafez Assad refused Barak’s offer because any deal with Israel would have made him immediately unpopular with his genocidal Syrian subjects.[24] And Barak’s policies toward Syria, mind you, were not significantly different from those of Likud’s Netanyahu right before him, who himself “largely followed his immediate [Labor] predecessors’ policies, seeking to reach accommodation with Syria based on Israel’s essentially ceding the entire Golan Heights,” and who likewise “followed his Labor predecessors in allowing Syria -- for the sake of keeping illusory possibilities of an agreement ‘alive’ -- to continue to prosecute its proxy war against Israeli forces in Lebanon [through Hezbollah] at no cost.”[37]
Ehud Olmert will naturally not stop at giving away Shebaa Farms. As reported on 9 September,
“Israel’s foreign minister said yesterday it was time the Jewish state talked to the Arab/Palestinians, adding no conditions should be put on meeting President Mahmoud Abbas.”[38]
No conditions should be put on meeting President Mahmmoud Abbas, of Al Fattah, whose organization was created by the top co-architect of the German Nazi Final Solution, and is therefore constitutionally pledged to exterminate the Israeli Jews.[39] Is this Israel’s foreign minister, or the Arab PLO’s foreign minister?
Really: Who is the Ehud Olmert cabal working for? The question is sharpened when you consider that:
“[The Israeli] ambassador to Germany Shimon Stein is pleased that Germany has agreed to consider Prime Minister Ehud Olmert’s request that it send peace-keeping troops to Lebanon.”[38]
Isn’t this perfectly consistent with everything else that Ehud Olmert does? It is. Especially when you take into account that, in 1956, the US installed in West Germany as the German BND -- the German equivalent of the CIA -- a group of Nazi war criminals that the US had been protecting (and using). [40] (The CIA itself had earlier been created by absorbing tens of thousands of Nazi war criminals, as documented in 1988 by historian Christopher Simpson.[41])


Final remarks
____________
The above evidence supports the hypothesis that many in the Israeli ruling elite have been corrupted by the forces that wish to destroy the Jewish people. If so, this would hardly be the first time and therefore if the hypothesis appears surprising this merely betrays ignorance of history. The phenomenon of “renegade” Jews (as the First and Second Books of Maccabees call them) allying with the powerful anti-Semitic enemies of the Jewish movement is one of the most stable, recurrent features of Western History.
In the ancient Mediterranean, plenty of ‘Hellenizing’ (pro-Greek) Jews in the Jewish ruling elite allied with the Seleucid Greeks who attempted to obliterate Judaism in the land of Judah, and who committed one mass slaughter of innocent Jews after another, in addition to sundry cruelties a great deal worse than murder.[42] Then there were Jews -- once again Hellenizing Jews in the ruling elite -- who allied with the Roman effort to exterminate the Jewish people in the first and second centuries (the most famous case is that of ‘historian’ Flavius Josephus, from a rich, priestly Jewish family, who assisted the Roman generals Vespasian and Titus in the genocidal ‘First Jewish War,’ and then wrote much propaganda to excuse the Roman outrage.) [43] There were so many traitors in the Jewish upper classes that an entire movement developed among Jewish patriots to selectively assassinate the collaborators with the Romans.[43a]

Many upper-class Jewish converts to Christianity allied with the attacks against the Jews during the Middle Ages.[43b] The same happened in the 19th c., when the assimilated, upper-class maskilim of what became known as the ‘Jewish Enlightenment’ allied with the efforts of European governments to destroy Jewish religious practice.[43c]
More recently we have the example of the mainstream Jewish leaders during WWII in the United States and Britain, who tended to be ‘assimilated’ Jews toward the secular end of Jewish piety and practice, and who were well-connected with the anti-Semitic power structures in their home countries. These well-placed Jewish leaders destroyed a boycott against Hitler's regime that ordinary Jews around the world had been organizing and that came within an inch of destroying Nazism in the cradle (see Part 0).[43d] Then, during the Holocaust, these same Jewish leaders allied with the powerful anti-Semites whom they had befriended, and worked to sabotage the efforts of Hillel Kook (alias Peter Bergson) and his mostly Orthodox Jewish and righteous Gentile (i.e. non-Jewish) allies, who were trying to rescue the desperate European Jewish population (see Part 1).[44]Also during the Holocaust, the leaders of the mainstream Labor Zionist movement who went on to become the Israeli government and establishment, likewise sabotaged the efforts to rescue the European Jews; some of them, such as Rudolf Kastner, were in fact very good friends with the top Nazi exterminators and assisted them in the killing, later also defending them after the war from the Nuremberg War Crimes Tribunal (see Part 4). Even more recently we have the astonishing attacks against the Jewish state by all manner of prominent mainstream Jewish leaders in the Diaspora (see Part 2).[45]In this context, why should we be surprised that the largely and fiercely secular Israeli ruling elite, a continuation of the Labor Zionist movement, is betraying ordinary Israelis? But we are surprised because we do not study history, and so, as George Santayana famously said, we are condemned to repeat it.
Anybody who insists, however, despite all the above, that what really propels current Israeli leaders is not treason but the most astonishing stupidity ever witnessed, will still have to reach the same conclusion regarding what, in practical terms, is necessary for the survival of the Jewish state. Why? Because this kind of stupidity is criminal, and will result in another anti-Jewish genocide, so the Israeli ruling elite must be kicked out of power.
The next question is: Why don’t ordinary Israelis and Diaspora Jews effectively defend themselves from their own leaders?
HIR has begun the attempt to answer this question in Part 5, but more is coming.

No Jew has the right to yield the rights of the Jewish People in Israel -
David Ben Gurion 
(David Ben-Gurion was the first Prime Minister of Israel and widely hailed as the State's main founder).
“No Jew is entitled to give up the right of establishing [i.e. settling] the Jewish Nation in all of the Land of Israel. No Jewish body has such power. Not even all the Jews alive today [i.e. the entire Jewish People] have the power to cede any part of the country or homeland whatsoever. This is a right vouchsafed or reserved for the Jewish Nation throughout all generations. This right cannot be lost or expropriated under any condition or circumstance. Even if at some particular time, there are those who declare that they are relinquishing this right, they have no power nor competence to deprive coming generations of this right. The Jewish nation is neither bound nor governed by such a waiver or renunciation. Our right to the whole of this country is valid, in force and endures forever. And until the Final Redemption has come, we will not budge from this historic right.”
BEN-GURION’S DECLARATION ON THE EXCLUSIVE AND
INALIENABLE JEWISH RIGHT TO THE WHOLE OF
THE LAND OF ISRAEL:
at the Basle Session of the 20th Zionist Congress at Zurich (1937)

"No country in the world exists today by virtue of its 'right'.
All countries exist today by virtue of their ability to defend themselves against those who seek their destruction."
“Man can live about forty days without food, about three days without water, about eight minutes without air, but only for one second without hope”

“The Jews are a peculiar people: Things permitted to other nations are forbidden to the Jews.

Other nations drive out thousands, even millions of people, and there is no refugee problem. Russia did it. Poland and Czechoslovakia did it. Turkey threw out a million Greeks and Algeria a million Frenchmen. Indonesia threw out heaven knows how many Chinese--and no one says a word about refugees.

But in the case of Israel, the displaced Arabs have become eternal refugees. Everyone insists that Israel must take back every single Arab. How about the million families of Jewish refugees from Arab countries (who lived there for over 2800 years) who lost over 120,000 sq. km. of land and assets valued in the trillions of dollars. Other nations when victorious on the battlefield dictate peace terms. But when Israel is victorious it must sue for peace and sacrifice its security by conceding land for peace which makes the situation worse.
