If Muslims are against Zionism, then they should stop touting palestinianism.  The question that Muslims must answer is why are only Muslims entitled to self-determination?  What the Jew-hating international community fails to remember is that both Palestinian Arabs and Palestinian Jews were residents of the Mandate of Palestine — therefore,  Muslims have no absolute, natural right to “the land” nor to self-determination without the reciprocal absolute natural right of the Palestinian Jew.  Palestinian Arabs can not veto the “rights” of the Palestinian Jew since the Palestinian Jew had a prior right to create a national existence in the lands of the Mandate of Palestine thousands of years before Islam was even invented.  Read below for another example of Muslim hubris.  Via MEMRI:

In an interview with the weekly Kul Al-Arab, which is published in Israel, Mas’oud Ghanaim, member of the United Arab List (Ra’am-Ta’al) in the Israeli Knesset, from the southern branch of the Islamic Movement, called for establishing a Great Islamic Caliphate that will include Israel, and said that all means were valid for defending Jerusalem and Al-Aqsa mosque. Ghanaim also expressed support for the Iran-Syria-Hizbullah axis, and called for recognizing the legitimacy of the Hamas government in Gaza.

The following are excerpts from the interview:

“…Q: As an Islamist, do you believe that there is a need to establish an Islamic state or Islamic regime in Palestine and in the Arab and Islamic homeland?

“A: There is a need for the return of the Islamic Caliphate, and I think that this is the ideal solution to the weakness, collapse, and crumbling afflicting the Arabs and Muslims… I think that a [new] Islamic caliphate is [also] in the interest of the Jews themselves, since their golden age as Jews came during the [medieval] Islamic Caliphate.

“Q: What are your conclusions about our people’s Nakba [i.e. the results of the 1948 war], and what is the solution?”

“A: We, as an Islamic movement, present a view that is different, and an interpretation that is different, from those of the other parties regarding the reasons and circumstances of the Nakba. We do not focus on external elements such as colonialism and occupation, nor [do we focus] geographically only on Palestine. In our view, the Nakba is the result of the weakness and collapse of the overall Islamic body, and therefore we must not isolate ourselves [from the rest of the Muslim world], and must strengthen the Islamic body and entity.”

“Q: What is to be Israel’s fate in such a situation?”

“A: Israel must be part of the great Islamic state. We are not against the Jews, just against the Zionist movement and its racist ideas. But we must not forget our responsibility [for our fate] and the causes of the Nakba…“

Via Ynetnews:

The Palestinian Authority is starting to be portrayed as the side against peace. Two moves by Netanyahu managed to change the picture: First, his willingness to endorse a Palestinian state, and then the temporary settlement freeze. Israel made a move, so why is Abbas refusing to negotiate? He is being asked this by world leaders at a time when his PA continues to incite against Israel.
While Israel is ready for negotiations, here and now, the Palestinians are presenting preconditions and are losing the West’s support. Preconditions for talks with Israel? As if we never had Oslo, mutual recognition, and signed agreements?

The Palestinians failed to realize that hatred for Israel does not equal sympathy for the Palestinians. They confused anti-Israel sentiments with pro-Palestinian sentiments. They failed to understand that many in the world hate Israel, but are using the Palestinians as the fig leaf for this hatred. The Obama administration is increasingly having reservations about them.

Nothing other than that Tareq Salahi, the White House “gatecrasher”, served in the same anti-Israel group as Obama’s palestinian professor pal Rashid Khalidi, a professor who excuses muslim terrorism as long as it is Jewish blood, guts and sinew that get splattered. Via WND:

Tareq Salahi served on the board of the American Task Force for Palestine, where Columbia University Professor Khalidi served as vice president. The American Power blog noticed both Salahi’s and Khalidi’s names have been scrubbed from the Task Force website, although Salahi’s bio still comes up on a Google cache search of the site.

The Task Force lobbies for a Palestinian state and demands the so-called right of return for Palestinian “refugees” – a formula Israeli officials across the political spectrum have warned could destroy Israel by population genocide, with the Jewish state forced to accept millions of Arabs, thus diluting its Jewish majority.

Basically, this proves that when you lay down with dogs, you wake up with fleas.

More mendacity from the fabricated entity commonly referred to as “Palestine”.  Via Palestinian Media Watch:

In an interview on official PA television on Oct. 22, historian Nabil Alqam first denied thousands of years of documented Jewish history in Israel, then replaced it with “4,000 to 5,000 years” of fictitious Palestinian history.

Placing Palestinians, Arabs and Muslims in Israel in biblical times is historically impossible: The name “Palestine” was coined by Rome only in 136 CE, and for nearly 2,000 years Jews were the only Palestinians the world recognized.
Islam was established only in 610 CE. Arabs first arrived in Israel with the Muslim invasion in 637 CE.

Hilarious, really, that “palestinian arabs”, the fabricated culture breast-fed on hatred for Jews would turn against Hillary Clinton, the American cur that kissed Suha Arafat on her cheek even after she accused Jews of “poisoning” Arab water, a claim that was never substantiated given the fact that no palestinian ever died from poisoned water.  Palestinians love to blame everyone but themselves for their own detestable failures and why they have not yet gained their kleptocracy.

Here’s Hillary Clinton, before she was Secretary of State, kissing the wife of Yassir Arafat, the filthy pig and founder of modern-day Muslim terrorism.  Oops, sorry for the redundancy:

“Palestine” no longer exists in the same way that Biafra no longer exists, yet “Palestinian” Arab children are taught through formal and informal education to see a world in which “Palestine” replaces all of Israel, and Israel, for the uninformed, is a legitimate and sovereign nation.  Via Palestinian Media Watch-IMRA:

Palestinian children are taught through formal and informal education to see a world in which “Palestine” replaces all of Israel.

Two children’s quizzes broadcast last week on Fatah-controlled Palestinian Authority television show how the PA routinely teaches its children to identify all Israeli cities as Palestinian cities.

In the two quizzes on PA TV, children were asked to identify Palestinian  cities. The suggested answers were exclusively Israeli cities: Haifa, Jaffa, Acre and Tiberias.

The following are the transcripts of the PA TV quizzes:

Quiz 1: Haifa, Jaffa and Acre are “Palestine”
Host reads clue: “Where is Palestine’s most important port, in Haifa, Jaffa or Acre?”
Child: “Jaffa.”
Host: “Is it correct?”
[Checks computer.]
Host: “Bravo!”
[PA TV (Fatah), Aug. 26, 2009]

Quiz 2: Jaffa, Acre and Tiberias are “Palestine”
Host reads clue: “There’s a Palestinian city whose walls are very high and strong, and Napoleon, whom we all know, stopped his battle, because he was unable [to breach] the solid walls. Which city is it, Jaffa, Acre or Tiberias?”
Child: “Acre.”
Host: “Applause, bravo!”

The following are examples from PA schoolbooks, which also teach Palestinian children to imagine a world without Israel:

“Coastal states differ in terms of their access to water sources, such
as…: states located on sea coasts with accesses to two seas, for example:
Palestine and Egypt to the Mediterranean Sea and the Red Sea.”
[Physical Geography and Human Geography, Grade 12, p. 105]
“Palestine has a long coast facing the Mediterranean Sea and a short coast on the Gulf of Aqaba.”

[Health and Environment Studies, Grade 8 (2003), p. 130, the Israeli city of Eilat is on the Gulf of Eilat (Aqaba) - Ed.]

“The Tiberias Lake [Sea of Galilee], in Palestine.”
[Physical Geography, Grade 5, p. 25]

Alan M. Dershowitz writes:

The people of Gaza really believe that the Holocaust never occurred. They really believe that firing rockets at school children is God’s command. They really believe that Jews are a combination of the devil, monkeys, pigs and vermin. They really believe that Israel doesn’t want peace and seeks to destroy the Islamic world and its holy places. It is difficult to build an enduring peace on such a structure of lies. That is why the Oslo Accords insisted that the Palestinians stop teaching their children to hate, stop teaching their teachers to lie and stop inciting violence against the Jews. In this respect, the Palestinian leadership, both in Gaza and the West Bank, has been an utter failure. Not much can be expected from the Hamas leadership, but even the Palestinian Authority has failed miserably in this regard.

Israel, on the other hand, has a free and open press in which the Palestinian narrative is presented honestly and fully – indeed sometimes more favorably to the Palestinians than is warranted by the facts. It should come as no surprise therefore that far more Israelis than Palestinians favor a compromise peace. The two-state solution cannot be built on lies.

Via MEMRI:

Statements made during the opening session of the Fatah conference in Bethlehem indicate that the dominant position among Fatah members is that resistance (muqawama) of various forms is a legitimate right of the Palestinian people. Most Fatah members advocated a combination of the political path with various forms of resistance – from non-violent measures such as demonstrating and planting trees to armed resistance. Except for one lone voice, none expressed a willingness to completely rule out armed resistance.

Even Mahmoud Abbas took an ambiguous stand, in contrast to past statements in which he explicitly opposed violence.

When a culture cheers its Muslim murderers as heroes is about as detestable as a culture can get.  Via PMW:

Fatah leaders responded with loud applause when two terrorists who committed the worst terror attack in Israel’s history were referred to as heroic Martyrs by former PA Prime Minister Abu Alaa, at the opening ceremony of Fatah’s Sixth General Conference:

“We have in our midst the hero Khaled Abu-Usbah, hero of the operation [terror attack] led by the Shahida (Martyr) Dalal Mughrabi [loud applause from the audience]. We salute him and welcome him. And [we salute] the hero, the Shahida (Martyr) Dalal. [He shouts:] All the glory! All the glory! All the glory! All the sisters here are Dalal’s sisters.”  [PATV (Fatah), Aug. 4, 2009]

Dalal Mughrabi and Khaled Abu-Usbah are seen as Palestinian heroes for having carried out the bus hijacking in 1978 in which 37 Israeli civilians, 12 of them children, were murdered.

Former Prime Minister Abu Alaa (Ahmad Qurei), who read the statement, is the current Chairman of Fatah Department for Recruitment and Organization.

Jeffrey Goldberg repeats my own statement that if Palestinianism is valid, so then is Zionism.  One must answer the contradiction why the international community believes that only Palestinian Arabs are entitled to self-determination while believing that Palestinian Jews are not.  Jews were an ancient people already when Mohammad appeared on the Arabian peninsula.  It only makes sense that the Jewish people live near and among their ancient holy sites.  Just because Muslims built their mosques on top of Jewish sites in acts of war, superiority and hubris 1,400 years ago, does not invalidate the indigenous rights of Jews nor the historical entitlement that Jews have earned to rightfully live near, in and amongst their own Holiest sites, tombs, synagogues, and archaeological remnants. And let it be known that those remnants, artifacts and actual buildings that are being revealed and discovered almost every week by scientists and archeologists prove Jewish preeminence in the land and region.

Archaeology is the veracity that Muslims won’t tolerate which is why the Muslim waqf discards all debris and dirt without sorting it while it cowardly digs out dirt underneath the Jewish Temple in Jerusalem for fear that Jewish artifacts will be discovered proving the preexistence of the Jewish people thousands of years before Mohammed was ever born. Via DailyAlert from michaeltotten.com:

Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic Monthly said in an interview:

* “The settlements aren’t the central question. They’re a tragedy in part because they obscure the central question of this conflict. The only question is: can the world of Arab Islam accept the idea of Jewish national equality?…The Six-Day War wasn’t started because of the settlements. If you study the history of the last one hundred years, you’ll see that this [accepting Jewish national equality] is the central animating cause of the conflict. And I don’t see much evidence that Arab Islam can assimilate this idea right now.”

* “The question of Israel is the question of what happens to all minorities in the Middle East. The Arab Muslim Middle East has 300 million people. It has a very hard time treating Coptic Christians with equality, treating Maronites in Lebanon with equality, treating Southern Sudanese in an equal way, treating Kurds in an equal way, and dealing with Jews – not only in their national expression, but even as minorities within their own countries. There was never a golden era for Jews who lived in Arab countries.”

* Q: You have talked to Hamas people. Should the Israelis or Americans talk to them?

Goldberg: “I don’t know what they’d get out of it….People in the United States find it hard to understand how people in Hamas and Hizbullah think. It’s alien to us. The feverish racism and conspiracy mongering, the obscurantism, the apocalyptic thinking – we can’t relate to that….We’re talking about whole societies that are captive to this kind of absurdity.”

* “Just because a belief sounds ridiculous to you doesn’t mean it’s not sincerely held. So I think it’s best to err on the side of taking people at their word….I believe Hamas when it says it wants to eradicate Israel….Why not? Palestinians, over the years, have proven that they’re willing to sacrifice generations of people to achieve their goal of a Jewish-free Palestine.”

* “Arabs are misreading history if they believe Israel is a temporary phenomenon. Nothing like this has ever happened in history. A dead tribe came back and seized the land it had, and did so after a devastating tragedy. Jews are also good at waiting, apparently. They’re a small group, but there’s a survival impulse that’s embedded in many Jews, and certainly in the Jews of Israel today. It says: ‘You want to wait? We’ll wait, too.’ Jews were an ancient people already when Mohammad appeared on the Arabian peninsula.”

* “I’m negative about the intentions of Palestinians. If their goal were statehood, they could have had statehood. Therefore, you have to give serious credence to the idea that their goal is not statehood, that it’s more important to rid the Arab world of Jewish nationalism than it is to have a Palestinian state that would improve the lives of individual Palestinians now.”
