EDITOR: ARAFAT'S GHOST IN GAZA

'Echoing Arafat's famous battle cry, Qurei said: "We will proceed from one 
victory to another until we achieve the big victory – when one of our roses 
or juveniles will hoist the Palestinian flag on the walls of the Old City 
[of Jerusalem] and its minarets and churches." '[1]

In 1994 Yasser Arafat was awarded a "peace prize"[2].

In plain sight is the same pattern.  Arab attack.......then Arab explanation 
of being the victim.

Relentless brutality and murder is condoned by the actions and statements of 
outside groups[7].  In 2005 thousands of people are being expelled from 
their homes[18].

Arabs isolated Israelis and the Arabs now called Palestinians[3].  The Arabs 
never offered or allowed citizenship to Arab/Palestinians.  Arabs consumed 
93% of the League Of Nations post WWI British Mandate and French 
Mandate[22]. The Arabs forced the Arab/Palestinians to become 'refugees' and 
Israel has been under attack by the adjacent Arabs since the British 
withdrawal.

Land was mandated after a war which is not unlike anyother record of 
history.  But the Israeli portion of the mandate was reduced[3][22].  That 
reduction may have had some relation to the discovery of oil in Arab nations 
and the enormous power that yielded.  It may also relate to appeasing a 
majority simply for convenience.

Arabs attack under the guise that the land of Israel is their land but Arabs 
didn't mandate after WWI.  The Allies mandated after defeating the Central 
Powers[6].  Why so many many concessions to Arabs with callous disregard for 
Israelis[16]?

More important, why does the Arab warfare persist?  What do they gain from 
attacking Israel which is a fraction of the region's land.  What's the 
benefit they seek from killing anyone who happens to be in Israel?   
Ignoring their explanations, what's the motive?  What do they gain or 
maintain?

The Arab/Palestinian rhetoric, which enables cont'd attacks against Israel, 
is co-opted by a peculiar variety of organizations, movements, religious 
groups and news agencies [7].  There's no need to include Middle East 
Gov't/News agency reports[13].  Some of these disparate groups seem to be 
unconcious of what they promote as utopians promoting dystopia.  They have 
in common the claims to be "doing their job" or arbitrarily claiming self 
righteousness and equivalency while working to delegitimize Israelis and 
their state[21].

ie  "...The bombings July 7 in London were quickly labeled terrorist attacks 
by the wire services. But a July 12 suicide bombing outside a Netanya, 
Israel, shopping mall was attributed to "Islamic Jihad militants," a group 
on the U.S. State Department's list of terrorist organizations. "[8][19]

The Jewish are an indigenous people with thousands of years of history in 
the region.  They are also a minority with many diaspora[9].  They were 
awarded a territory after a war.  That's the history of the world.  Why is 
this particular circumstance contested at all?

The Israelis are not threatening any people, they're not promoting guerilla 
warfare locally or worldwide.  They don't claim a 'religious' imperative 
against the rest of humanity.  The state of Israel is not initiating 
relentless attacks.  Their enemy use the identical tactics and rhetoric as 
the terrorist guerillas worldwide[26].  Yet some follow this defacto mandate 
to condemn Israel and align with their violent enemy.

There are attacks against civilians worldwide now;  Iraq, London, USA, Bali, 
Beslan, Thailand, Madrid, the Phillipines, possibly China[24], et al, et al. 
  Unique amongst them is the long history of attacks against Israel.  Also 
unique is the excessive propensity to delegitimize Israel.  Delegitimized by 
apparently unassociated groups[7][17][19].  What's in it for these groups?

There's no organization  calling for divestment from Arab nations and 
companies.  There's no movement condemning the culture of violence in the 
Middle East.   Blunt alliances[10] existed in the past yet there's no debate 
addressing this.  This pattern supports one side of the equation only.

Take it to the extreme to see the unconcious mind.  All affirmations are 
affirmations of loyalty to a group.  Criticism of anything means alignment 
with something else.  Loyalty is to an authority who's rhetoric and fashion 
are then adopted.  Conciously or unconciously we affirm our loyalty.

What's the authority that these varied Israel opponents follow?  How can 
they ignore the history of the region?

Where did this voice of contradiction come from as it overlooks the 
incessant Arab attacks on Israelis?  Decade after decade of attacks 
justified by 'explanations' which are adopted by movements and mainstream 
entities including 'mainstream' religious groups[7].  Unseen forces seem to 
dictate the rhetoric because it continues endlessly.
These pretexts are so entrenched in the vernacular that even Israelis use 
them for convenience.  ie Occupation.

If you're attacked and you take land it is conceded land.  Not occupied 
land.  Conceded territory.  Territory won.  As shown in the history of the 
region[11] or history at any point.

The Media is absent as 10,000 people are moved from their homes.  You 
wouldn't know anything of importance has been happening there if you accept 
the MSM pov.  You wouldn't know that there have been constant attacks 
against Israelis during this paper cease-fire.  From where do the media 
editors get their queues?   Once again, these varied voices are on the same 
page, at the same time and in the same manner[7][17][19][23].

Why is Israel making, or being forced to make, another concession[20]?  Why 
any concession?  What concessions have been made from the Arabs in the 
region?  When the Arabs attack it's the Int'l Community insisting that the 
conceded territory is returned to the Arabs as a 'peace' gesture.  What 
motivates the Int'l Group.

The reality is that this expulsion/diengagement is just another tool for the 
Arab/Palestinians et al to kill.  The 'Disengagement' is an affirmation of 
the status quo.  It doesn't address the aggressor therefore it's an insult 
to the minority and a guarantee of brutality.  It's abusive.  It's a blunt 
reinforcement of the existing status quo.  What is the motive of this status 
quo?

What's the Arab goal besides the killing of people?  Is it to stop democracy 
which threatens their power as it exists under the guise of religious law?   
Or do their own people threaten them and are therefore diverted with a 
cause? Casus belli.

As this 'Disengagement' continues Arab/Palestinian words are showing intent 
blatantly[14].  They will continue to attack as always.  As always since 
1948 (and before).

It's a myth that Arab/Palestinians have any interest in two states.  They 
voice their intent in every statement[1][20][25].  Their aggression is 
always cloaked in the most transparent deniability.  There is always another 
condition which is not met, according the Arab/Palestinians, therefore they 
claim justification for a culture of violence.  Yet with the 
'Disengagement'[18] they will acquire a seaport, a border with Eygpt[15] and 
possibly an airport from which to maintain their violent practice.

The 'Disengagement' is an affront to any reasonable conciousness.

Some say that Israel is removing the 'excuse' for Arab/P. attacks by no 
longer 'occupying' Gaza et al.  Hence they won't have to use restraint "if" 
they are attacked again.  Using the term "if" is absurd, bizarre and 
contrived when addressing Arab aggression.  You need look no further than 
the 'ceasefire' attacks against Israel in the previous weeks and months.  
And years.[12]

You can give the adversary a new name every week (PLA, PLO, militants, 
insurgents, refugees, etc. etc.)[19].  You can point to another faction 
every month but the practitioners and the practice Are The Same.

Arab/Palestinian public relation statements are made for the media but the 
statements are always contradicted by some 'seperate' faction[25].  There is 
always another faction who insist on cont'd murder under the guise of 
resistance.  So the reality of constant warfare continues in this 
transparent but well promoted disguise.  It couldn't be more obvious.  It's 
the same hegemony and the same people.  The Same.

Note that Hamas terrorist leaders Mahmoud Zahar, Muhammed Shamaa, Abdel 
Fatah Dukhan, Ismail Haniya, Said Siyam and Nizar Rayyan now appear in 
modern green caps while trying to mimic a Western political movement[23].

The attacks will continue against Israelis.  Sure as there will be more 
restraints placed on Israel in the future.  Civilians attacked, Bombings and 
Missiles.  Roadmaps, Accords and Peace Prizes.  UN Declarations, Divestments 
and more Agit Prop.  The same.  More and more attacks with explanations 
supported by a chorus of witting and unwitting alliances.

At what point does the majority of the world's population recognize the 
obvious?  It's not a ghost, it's a paradigm.
