Carter: "Hamas leaders want peace and they want to have reconciliation not only with their Fatah brothers but also eventually with Israelis to live side by side, with two nations, both sovereign nations recognized by each other and living in peace". Carter's comments came during a joint press conference with Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh. Former President Jimmy Carter told media that the Obama Administration should remove Hamas from the terrorist list. Immediately after Carter left Gaza Ahmed Youssef, the deputy Hamas foreign minister, said "Recognizing Israel is completely unacceptable." According to Hamas ideology, there is no room for a Jewish state in an Islami! c Middle East. (No media frenzy about this rejection and Carter is also silent about it!)

Blair: In spite of Israel 's clear position on a subject, Tony Blair said that Israel should be open to negotiating the Arab demand for "right of return," which would allow millions who claim descent from Arabs who fled the Jewish state during the War of Independence to c! laim Israeli citizenship, affectively destroying the Jewish state. Nothing is said about what Arabs must do!

Hamas rejected a Red Cross announcement on Thursday that its officials be allowed to visit Shalit, as required by the Geneva Convention. Hamas officials charged that Shalit's situation is similar to that of Gaza terrorists being held in Israel, although Israel has allowed the Red Cross to visit prisoners. Hamas has provided no signs of life of Gilad Shalit!

Quote of the Week: "Obama sugar coated the pathologies of the Islamic world - from the tyranny that characterizes its regimes, to the misogyny, xenophobia, Jew hatred, and general intolerance that characterizes its societies. In so   doing he made clear that his idea of pressing the restart button with the Islamic world involves erasing the moral distinctions between the Islamic world and the free world." - Caroline Glick, senior contributing editor of The Jerusalem Post.

Human Trafficking is still a Major Muslim Trade. Muslim countries in the Middle East and north-central Africa lead the world in human trafficking, according to a new U.S. State Department report. Those identified as the worst offenders and being of involved in Human Trafficking and slavery are:  Iran, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Syria, Mauritania, Chad, Sudan, Niger and Eritrea. Next to worst are: Algeria , Libya, Tunisia, Egypt, Iraq, Yemen, Bahrain, Qatar, the UAE and Lebanon , all of which have very large Muslim populations. (President Obama forgot to menti! on this slave trade in his outreach to the Muslim world!)

IRC is not in a Rush! The Red Cross has finally called on the Hamas to allow soldier Gilad Shalit, held captive in Gaza for 1089 days, to maintain ''regular relations with his family.'' (This is the same indifference and anti-Semitic behaviour that the Red Cross exhibited during the Holocaust.)

Lame Excuse of the Traitor. Former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert told Newsweek last Wednesday that he offered PA chairman Mahmoud Abbas only 93.7 percent of Yesha, and not the 97 percent that Abbas claims he was offered. Olmert said that in addition he offered to give the PA the remaining 6.3 percent of the land from other Israeli lands. (It was the offer of 97% of Jewish Land to the enemy!)

No UN Neutrality where Israel is Concerned. United Nations Forces in Lebanon (UNIFIL) may have been involved in arresting Lebanese citizens suspected of spying for Israel . Video footage has been shown in which a Spanish UNIFIL commander states that his troops worked with Lebanes! e troops to arrest alleged spies for Israel in primarily Shiite Muslim areas. UNIFIL has been charged with ensuring that Hizbullah does not rebuild its weapons supplies - a task at which it has failed - but has not been authorized to take part in internal Lebanese affairs.

About Time! Yisrael Beiteinu Mks Leah Shemtov and Moshe Matalon will present to the government's Ministerial Law Committee a proposed law that, if enacted, would require all schools in Israel to teach Zionism and Israeli history. (All other countries teach their children the history of their nation. Why not Israel ?)

Another Case Against Assimilation of Jews. Adam Yahiye Gadahn, also known as Azzam the American, discusses his roots as he castigates U.S. policies and deplores Israel's offensive in Gaza : "Your speaker has Jews in his ancestry, the last of whom was his grandfath! er." Growing up in rural California, Gadahn embraced Islam in the mid-1990s, moved to Pakistan . Gadahn says his grandfather was a "Zionist" and "a zealous supporter of the usurper entity, and a prominent member of a number of Zionist hate organizations." (History is full of examples of where people with Jewish ancestry have become hyper-active, hateful enemies of the Jews!)

Food for Thought. by Steven Shamrak

Considering the response of the United States to one terror attack perpetrated by Al Quaida, what do you think the appropriate response by Israel should be after more than 60 years of continuous terror attacks perpetrated by or on behalf of fake nation, Palestinians?

Arab's Export to Israel. The Galilee Police's drug squad thwarted an attempt to smuggle 44 kilograms (97 pounds) of heroin from Jordan last week.

Mitchell vs US : Open Gaza Now, Free Shalit Later. U.S. Middle East envoy George Mitchell has advised Israel to relax restrictions at ! the Gaza crossings without demanding that Hamas free kidnapped soldier Gilad Shalit. An American Embassy spokesman told Israel National News, "Mitchell will have to speak for himself. These are very sensitive issues." (What is the point of having an official envoy if he only speaks "for himself"? Why did the US not speak to Afghanistan and Iraq but instead attacked them in the name of national security ?)

At Least one European MP Recognized the Truth. In April Wilders, Dutch MP at the European Parliament, announced he was working on a movie sequel which focuses on "Islamization in the West" and will show "how the forces of Islamization are specifically targeting Israel in a fight against all free societies." He added: "The film will demonstrate that the fight against Israel is not territorial, and hence Israel is only the first line of defense for the West. Now it's Israel but we are next. That's why beyond solidarity, it is in Europe's interest to stand by Israel ."

Ugliness of PA's Family. Palestinian Authority (PA) police have arrested three members of a family from the Samarian village of Hijah. Members of the 15-year-old boy's family tortured and killed him because he was cooperated with Israeli authorities.

Provocation by Self-hating Leftists in Yesha. Twenty radical leftists came on Shabbat to Nachal Tsofit, a community near Bat Ayin, apparently in order to cause provocations with residents, witnesses said. Local residents confronted them, in an effort to ensure that they would not attempt to damage property or agricultural fields belonging to the community. During the confrontation, the leftists began throwing stones at the residents.

Quote of the Week: "Jews! Unique nation of the world! For thousands of years the tyranny of the world has succeeded in depriving you of your ancestral lands but it has not eradicated your name, nor your national existence... Legitimate heirs of the Land of Israel!... Hurry! The moment has arrived to claim the return of your rights among the nations of the world. You must claim for yourselves a national existence as states among states, and your unencroachable right to bow down before God according to your faith, publicly and forever." - Napoleon Bonaparte, "Appeal to the Jews", 1798.

What Financial Crisis? The United States has promised another $55 million to UNWRA, the UN agency that takes care of more than 4.5 million long-term, professional Palestinian refugees in the Middle East. This brings the US contribution to UNWRA for the year 2009 to $154.5 million. (For 60 years the international community has been fostering the instability in the Middle East. Billions of dollars are wasted every year to keep political pressure on Israel.)

Female Terrorists of PA. 500 Palestinian women in Nablus are providing wanted Hamas terrorists with sanctuary and permitting their bank accounts to be used to whitewash Hamas revenues. Three Hamas female suicide killers were captured recently.

Is Obama Constitutionally Eligible to Serve?

Why has Obama still not Confirmed his status as "natural born citizen"? It is a Constitutional Requirement for the Position of US President?

Despite a near media blackout on coverage, which is not a good sign of a healthy democracy, 49.3% are 'troubled' and think that Obama should release his birth certificate. This issue, Obama's eligibility to be the president of the United States, would be immediately resolved if President Obama revealed his original birth certificate. Why hasn't he?

On April 10 of 2008, two senators, both Democrats, Patrick Leahy of Vermont and Claire McCaskill of Missouri, introduced a resolution into the upper house expressing a sense of the Senate that John McCain, who was born on a U.S. milit! ary base overseas to two U.S. citizens, was indeed a "natural born citizen." It's interesting what Leahy had to say on the subject: "Because he was born to American citizens (emphasis added), there is no doubt in my mind that Senator McCain is a natural born citizen. I expect that this will be a unanimous resolution of the U.S. Senate."

By deliberately hiding details of his birth Obama is showing his contempt for the American voters and spitefulness toward the Constitution of the United States of America ! What, if anything, is he hiding?

Russian version
An introduction to MAOF
Haim Goldman

Dear Friends,

Would you believe that the undersigned has anything in common with

-- Professor Victor Davis Hanson (Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University),
-- Dr Charles Krauthammer, (Washington Post, Time, The Weekly Standard),
-- Caroline Glick (Deputy Managing Editor of the Jerusalem Post),
-- Jonathan Tobin (Executive Editor of the Philadelphia Jewish Exponent).

Amazingly, the editors of the MAOF website decided that the missives of the undersigned are worthy of translation and posting along the articles written by these distinguished authors.

The first letter was published without the consent of the undersigned.
However, after thorough examination of the laudable attitude of MAOF and of the excellent contents of the website, the undersigned had most graciously granted his permission for publication of his missives in both English and Russian.

“Analytical Group MAOF” [1] is an organisation founded about ten years ago by Russian-speaking Jewish intellectuals. The attitude of MAOF is definitely pro-Zionist -- unambiguously and unapologetically.

One of MAOF’s primary purposes is providing information and analysis about Middle-Eastern and world affairs as well as about Israel’s history, values and dilemmas. In addition to extensive publication activity in various media, MAOF also organises excursions and seminars. While the vast majority of the contents of the MAOF website is in Russian, texts originally written in English are provided in the original [2] as well as in Russian.

There are arguably about 250 millions of Russian-speakers worldwide and many of them do not read English. The indisputable motivation for the author’s permission was to grant those millions of disadvantaged people the grand benefit of reading the author’s ruminations. If the author is ever maliciously accused that his tacit motivation for authorising the publication was his craving to be listed along with the above-mentioned distinguished writers, his plea will definitely be “nolo contendere”.

The editors of MAOF expressed their gratitude by granting the undersigned a privilege that no other author got – the opportunity to review and correct the Russian translation before publication. The original letters of the undersigned are at [3] and their Russian version is at [4]. At of today, only two letters are posted but several other letters are pending translation.

You are kindly ENCOURAGED TO RECOMMEND the MAOF website to your friends and colleagues worldwide, particularly those who speak Russian. Those who do not enjoy the benefit of proficiency in the exquisite Russian language can find many thought-provoking and inspiring articles about Middle-Eastern and world affairs in the English section [2].

Sincerely,

Haim Goldman
28.10.2006
