Mama77 Posted July 31, 2014 Report Posted July 31, 2014 “If the European countries fail to protect the Jews within their territory, the State of Israel will. Jewish blood is not cheap blood,” Former Shin Bet chief, Knesset Member Yisrael Hasson told European envoys at the Knesset on Monday. The Danish, Swedish and Dutch ambassadors to Israel, as well as officials from the embassies of Britain, Belgium, Italy, Hungary, Austria and Germany took part on Monday in an urgent meeting of the Knesset Immigration, Absorption and Diaspora Affairs Committee on the situation of Jewish communities in Europe. Nathan Gelbart, the head of Germany’s Keren Hayesod (United Jewish Appeal) in Berlin, reported that the German Jewish community is scared “because these are things that have not occurred since 1933.” He cited demonstrators shouting “death to the Jews” and other anti-Semitic slogans. “These demonstrators are marching in the heart of Berlin shouting these slogans, in front of the police. Shouting ‘Jews are pigs’ is an incitement: Why isn’t the Germany police taking the details of these people shouting in an aggressive way ‘Death to the Jews’?” asked Gelbart. ”These protesters (against Israel’s Gaza operation) don`t know how to say `hello` in German, but they know very well how to shout that Israel is fascist and cruel,” he said. Benjamin Albalas, president of the Jewish Community of Greece, declared: “The attitude in Europe is promoting delegitimization of the State of Israel… and is a first step toward the intimidation of the Jews’ right to live in their own home countries.” The European envoys condemned the anti-Semitic attacks in their countries and described the tools their governments use to combat the phenomenon. A representative of the French embassy in Tel Aviv said his country pledges ”zero tolerance for displays of anti-Semitism, adding that ”every attack on France`s Jews is an attack on all of France.” France, he said, has beefed up security around the Jewish communities even before the recent anti-Israel demonstrations. ”France is not denying that there is a problem…The French government`s efforts against acts of racism will gradually increase,” said the official. . During the meeting. MK Hasson told the ambassadors, ”NATO bombed 5,000 civilians in Kosovo just because it was insulted; 27,000 Iraqi civilians were bombed during the American invasion because they posed a danger to the US; there is not a country in the world that can talk to us about morality.” “If you do not stand by our side, the day when Islamic terror will reach your homes, your beds and your kindergartens will come soon,” he warned.
krypton Posted July 31, 2014 Report Posted July 31, 2014 Home » InDepth » Analysis » Caring for Israeli Sensitivities By: Jagdish N. Singh Published: July 31st, 2014 PRINT Share Share Share Share Share One wonders how the other day New Delhi chose to back the decision of the UN Human Rights Council to launch a commission of inquiry into Israel’s military offensive in Gaza . The Palestine-drafted resolution was adopted through a vote at the Council. It saw India along with other Brics nations condemn Israel’s ‘disproportionate’ use of force and the large-scale killing of civilians in Palestine. UN High Commissioner for Human Rights Navi Pillay even branded Israeli military actions in Gaza as amounting to war crimes. New Delhi’s behaviour at the UNHCR was in sharp contrast with how, earlier, India’s Minister of External Affairs Sushama Swaraj and Parliamentary Affairs Minister M Venkaih Nadu both had rejected the Opposition’s demand in Parliament to condemn Israel’s ongoing air and artillery bombardment on the Gaza Strip . Minister Swaraj said, “ any discourteous reference to any friendly country would affect relations.” She announced in India’s Upper House , “We fully support the Palestinian cause while maintaining good relations with Israel.” Rebutting the Opposition’s call for suspension of all military purchases from Israel and taking the issue of the on-going Israeli action against Haman in the Gaza Strip to the United Nations, she argued that the present conflict in Gaza could have been ended and peace restored by now if Hamas had accepted the ceasefire proposal from Cairo. Pertinently, Minister Swaraj also had a dig at a communist member in the House who called for suspending arms purchases from Israel on the issue of the present conflict . She asked him why his party, which was supporting the UPA-I , had not made such a demand in 2008 when 1,400 Palestinians were killed and then later in 2012 when there was another spurt of violence. Given this difference in the approaches of the Government in Parliament and at the Rights Council, there appears to be some kind of lack of understanding on the part of New Delhi . New Delhi ought to appreciate the sensitivities of Jerusalem today. Ever since Israel was founded , it has stood by India during all its major crises , including the 1971 Pak-Indo war and the 1999 Kargil conflict . After New Delhi established full-fledged diplomatic ties with Jerusalem, relations between the two nations have flourished in different sectors . Nothing should be done to put them off track. New Delhi would do well to remain aware of the predicament of Israel today. This only developed democracy in the Middle East has suffered a lot at the hands of Hamas , a notorious terrorist organization with a charter based on the fanatic ideology of hatred and violence against vast sections of humanity, including women . Hamas has had no history of faith in peace and development in the region. It is for dismantling the state of Israel completely. It has fired more than 12.000 rockets at Israeli towns since 2005 and indulged in dozens of other terror attacks on civilians in the country. According to a Middle East expert, since 2007 it has built a maze of underground concrete bunkers and tunnels underneath the residential areas of Gaza . Its sole purpose has been to enable the Hamas command structure to reside safely underground while their armed forces conduct a mobile defense against Israeli forces. This enables surprise attacks on the IDF units from different directions, allowing the attackers to then disappear again underground to emerge and attack somewhere else. Given this background, Israel seems to have been left with no option but to retaliate against Hamas in the Gaza Strip and use all means at its disposal to protect its citizens, Jews, Muslims and others alike, in the region. Needless to mention, Hamas has made it amply clear by its recent behavior as well that it has no genuine intention of returning to the cease-fire of 2012. Hamas has continued firing its rockets after rejecting the Egyptian cease-fire proposal. It has cared a fig also for the humanitarian cease-fire initiated by the United Nations . New Delhi would do well also to bear in mind that the ideology of Hamas is for the elimination of whoever does not subscribe to its fanatical version of a great religion. Its linkages are spread all over the world . As such it poses a threat to pluralist India too. There are already reports that the masked supporters of the Hamas (and the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria ) have of late marched through streets in Srinagar, capital of India’s province of Jammu and Kashmir .
