Het meest treffend aan het interview is de pessimistische, maar ook realistische kijk van Benny Begin op het vredesproces met de Palestijnen. Volgens zijn eigen zeggen bevindt Israel zich in een gekkenhuis, doelend op de omringende buren van Israel met hun wapenarsenalen, die slechts de vernietiging van de Joodse staat op het oog hebben. Waaronder de 40.000 Hezbollah raketten in Libanon… Continue reading
A Muslim fanatic with an internet site praising Islamic suicide bombers as defenders of their comrades is a Major in the U.S. Army with access to military intelligence and lethal weaponry.

When Mahmoud Ahmadinejad arrived in New York in September 2006 for the opening of the UN General Assembly, his appointment book was full. He had breakfast at the Intercontinental Hotel with American academics and journalists; he chatted with the members of the Council of Foreign Affairs about whether or not the Holocaust occurred; and he was expected up at Columbia for the University’s “World Leaders Forum” speakers series… Continue reading
In pondering the behavior of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, I cannot help but think of the 500,000 plastic keys that Iran imported from Taiwan during the Iran-Iraq War of 1980-88. At the time, an Iranian law laid down that children as young as 12 could be used to clear mine fields, even against the objections of their parents. Before every mission, a small plastic key would be hung around each of the children’s necks. It was supposed to open for them the gates to paradise… Continue reading

De Iraanse president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad sprak op 24 september 2009 tijdens de Algemene Vergadering van de VN. De verwachte Holocaust ontkenning bleef uit, maar zonder het woord ‘jood’ te noemen schetste hij een volledig door antisemitische stereotypen gekleurd wereldbeeld waarin Joden de vijand zijn die de wereld in hun greep houden om moslims kwaad te doen… Continue reading…
In 1918, the last year of the first World War, more than 1500 jewish men and women in Palestine (the countries jewish population was then about 60.000) enlisted in an all-jewish volunteer fighting unit, the jewish legion. Five hundred of the volunteers were young women and girls who enrolled in an auxiliary service of the legion to provide medical care for the wounded soldiers. Modelled on the Red Cross, the service was given the name Magen David Adom (which means “Red Shield of David”, but also known as the Red Star of David). A selected number of its members served in military hospitals, and their emblem, the Red Shield of David, was recognized by the British Military Government. Shortly after the end of the War, the service was disbanded… Continue reading

Volgens een invloedrijke religieuze Sjiitische leider in Iran is dwang bij ondervraging in de vorm van verkrachting, marteling en drugs toegestaan, zolang het tegenstanders betreft van de Islamitische Republiek. Deze Sjiitische leider, Mesba-Yazdi, is een persoonlijke geestelijk adviseur van President Ahmadinejad van Iran… Continue reading

Elements within the Army of the Nation (a network affiliated with the global jihad) claimed responsibility for the attack, calling it retaliation for the events at Al-Aqsa mosque… Continue reading

If you own a computer and hadn’t heard the name “Wafa Sultan” prior to last February, you were bound to have become familiar with it since then. A record eight million hits and counting have been charted on a six-minute video clip – originally subtitled and circulated on the Web by the Middle East Media Research Institute – in which Sultan, a Syrian-born, Los Angeles-based pundit (trained as a psychiatrist) slams Al Jazeera host Faisal al-Qasim and guest Ibrahim Al-Khouli about the ills of Islam… Continue reading
