“It’s Israeli Double Standard Time, which only occurs on days that end with a ‘y.’”
Meryl Yourish flames the Hamas apologists who have ignored the incessant attacks on Israeli children and schools. Read the whole thing.
On a related note, UNICEF decries Palestinian civilian casualties while ignoring Hamas human shield tactics and theater of jihad with Palestinian children in the lead role.
UNICEF, you should be warned, recently signed a partnership agreement with a jihadi-sympathizing charity tied to al Qaeda and the Taliban:
An Islamic charity with ties to Al Qaeda and the Taliban is now collaborating with an unlikely new partner: UNICEF, the United Nations’ Children’s Fund.
UNICEF has signed a “memorandum of understanding” with the International Islamic Relief Organization (IIRO), a Saudi charity of massive scope that keeps branches in more than 20 countries and has over 100 offices worldwide.
According to UNICEF, it will be teaming with the charity’s domestic Saudi branch to “promote children’s rights, health, equality and education,” in the oil-rich kingdom — but the organization has been doing more than just charity work.
The U.S. Treasury Department has designated the IIRO’s branches in the Philippines and Indonesia as terrorist entities for funding and supporting terrorist groups that have killed hundreds in East Asia. The Philippine branch was founded by Usama bin Laden’s brother-in-law, Muhammad Jamal Khalifah, and has long had ties to Al Qaeda.
The U.N. itself says that both the Indonesian and Philippine branches of IIRO are tied to Al Qaeda and the Taliban, and has singled them out for an asset freeze, arms embargo and travel ban on members of the groups.
But that hasn’t stopped the U.N. from recognizing the Saudi office as a legitimate relief group, nor has it stopped UNICEF — or other U.N. agencies — from working with it in the past.
According to Chris de Bono, UNICEF’s chief of media, “UNICEF does not and will not engage with” the two East Asian branches. Its new partnership is with the main Saudi branch only, and UNICEF will coordinate relief primarily for children living within Saudi Arabia, de Bono said.
The U.S. government also noted the distinction between the head office and the international branches.
“We are monitoring the situation closely, but we also understand the difference between the IIRO main headquarters and its branches,” Carolyn Vadino, deputy spokeswoman for the U.S. mission to the U.N., wrote in an e-mail to FOX News.
“It is the two branches in question that are designated and have ties to terrorists and at this time we have been assured that they are separate entities,” Vadino wrote.
But some critics are not convinced the distinction is so clear.
“We have to look a lot harder at whether or not an organization that’s headquartered in one country is really disconnected from operations which bear the same name in other countries and are referred to as branches,” said Anne Bayefsky, senior editor of Eye on the U.N., a watchdog group.
According to the Treasury Department, the head of the IIRO’s Eastern Province branch has been directly funding the two terror-tied branches — straight from his office in Saudi Arabia.

That’s why I am very careful about what charities I give to. Truth and moral character often take a back seat to politics.
Great post. Yes, anti-semitism is alive and well and flourishing at the U.N. and, sadly, in a lot of other places too.
Furtunatly, Israel doesn’t care what the rest of the world thinks.
As a wise comic from the South once said….
“Getter done” GO ISRAEL!!!!!!
Like Mom used to say, “I do not care who started it.”
Genocide isn’t the answer.
I quit giving to Unicef (or any other UN agency for that matter) many years ago.
I’ve just never been comfortable with funding corrupt officials under the guise of wanting to help the poor or child rapist peace keeping troops that are willing to withhold food aide for sex.
The sooner the UN is dissolved the better.
I understand helping those less fortunate than I, but when 90% of your contribution goes into someones pocket and on a good day 10% goes to those in need, I think there’s are better organizations out there to help.
Agreed…
I stopped giving to groups like these guys a while back. When i feel charitable, the only group i give to is Make A Wish.
Or, alternately, i’ll go do some serving at the local soup kitchen. That way, i know what i’m doing is helping someone specifically and immediately.
Do any of you know where the Palestinians get their aid money? Try one billion dollars from the World Bank. That money comes from us folks.
If the Palestinians put the money they spend on rockets and arms into actually improving their lives, what a difference we would see!
If they would send their kids to university to become doctors, engineers and businessmen instead of homocide bombers they could live normal lives!
Marco – Mom was wrong. Who started it matters.
Arabs are semites also. Can you expalin what you mean by this comment?
And why is the UN spending money in a country that is raking in Billions in oil dollars?
More on that … the World Bank that is….
Good link. Thanks 30 pcs.
I just read in the news that Hamas has rejected the U.N.’s call for a ceasefire in Gaza… OK, NOW can the idiot anti-Israel protesters go home?

With all due respect to your mom:
What? Genocide? Against who? Are you the designated collectivist troll for the day?
Do you really want to throw down?
That’s a great sentiment there, Marco. How about you spread that message to the imams and jihadis and see what kind of response you get? As soon as the Muslims give up their blood lust over Israel and Jews in general there will be peace in the region. But not before.
The situation in Gaza is impossible.
Entire generations of palestinian children have been indoctrinated to hate and want to kill Israelis. Genocide is unthinkable (to right thinking people) so reeducation may be the only fix. How do you get them to reeducation without fighting/killing the parents? I wouldn’t want any government (much less a foreign one) taking and reeducating my children.
Unfortunately there isn’t an easy “Change” solution. Obama’s only hole cards are charisma and being able to navigate Chicago dirty politics, neither of which play well in a military conflict.
wouldn’t it be fabulous if the u.s. would pull out of the u.n., the world bank, nato, and all military bases outside of the continental u.s. let the hutus kill the tutsis, the muslims kill themselves and everybody else, and the civilized world get on with the business of living. quit trying to bring the 10th world into 1st world status, and let them hack each other to death. let europe take care of putin and the muslimization of it’s continent. we just place our military and national guard on our borders and ports, and truly take care of the taxpayers for a change.

OK, just think about this: in 1945, the whole area was Arab, with a growing Jewish minority. Those Arabs did not leave voluntarily. Displacement of Palestinians did not end in 1948 or in 1967 or after Camp David. It has continued steadily over the last decade.
Every time Israelis justify their latest theft or act of violence as a reply to the last one by Palestinians. And Palestinians justify theirs as replies to the last one by Israelis. The difference is: Israel has more power and can kill and displace far more people.

Your “facts” are so perverted it just barely conceals your anti-semitic, anti-western, and anti-civilization sentiments.
Barely.
What “thefts” are we talking about here? Israel withdrawing from Gaza and the West Bank?
They GAVE BOTH TO THE PALESTIANS, you dribbling collectivist ass!
And instead of building a civilization for themselves, they voted in HAMAS and started launching rockets at ISRAEL!
LGM, I assume you are an atheist, so consider this, you retard:
Mohammadenism’s manifesto, the Qu’ran, preaches GENOCIDE against all non-believers who refuse to submit (read it, you illiterate collectivist!).
Judaism and Christianity, however, believe in FREE WILL. As an atheist, I MUCH prefer Judaism and Christianity, and can even handle governments run under their ethos. Why?
They will tolerate me, Mohammadenism will kill me.
You better think carefully about whose side you really want to win.
Ass.
So you’re on Israel’s side then, since the Arab world is united in their wish to destroy Israel and kill the Jews.
Don’t ya think your being a little hard on the kid FilmLadd. What do you expect form a hard working dedicated unionized teacher?
Oh the good ole days… when the majority of the world REALLY knew the difference between right and wrong. I miss them. And I miss Good Ole American Commonsense too..that is long gone as well..

It is the height of stupidity. It is worse than suicidal. It is “culturecide.”
I do not know what cartoon version of Genocide you learned in school, but I doubt even THAT version would damn Israel for self defense. Israel is not deliberately killing civilians–but if civilians are in the middle of a fire fight or living next to a legitimate target yes, they just might get killed. The Gazans CHOSE Hamas knowing the goals and tactics Hamas would choose.
But YOU are advocating Genocide against the Jews-if they were to stop shooting back then Hamas, Hezbollah and Fatah could indeed drive them into the sea killing every last man, women and child as all three of those groups repeatably state is their goal. The one fault I see here on Israel’s part is using infantry to try and save civilians when artillery and armor would do.
I am sure Lord Ha Ha’s mom gave him good advise too. The British still hanged him. Don’t make any broadcasts from Tehran.
lgm–do you just make up this bull as you go along, or do you plan it ahead of time? Mom was wrong.
I think everyone needs to revisit history – especially in regards to Israel.
First off, Jews and Arabs have lived in Middle East for a very long time. The area has been controlled and conquered by the Turks, the British and the French. In fact, after WWII is when the area was divided into all these different nations we see today. My grandfather served in WWII in what was then India but is now considered a part of Pakistan.
In 1947, realizing that the Jewish and Arab communities of Palestine could not live together in one state, the U.N. General Assembly adopted Resolution 181, which recommended partitioning Palestine into two states… one Jewish and one Arab. While the Jews accepted this plan, the Arabs rejected it, claiming that all of Palestine belonged to them. And when Israel declared its independence on May 14, 1948, seven neighboring Arab states attacked it in an attempt to prevent its creation.
Approximately 420,000 Arab- Palestinians fled to Arab states from the portion of Palestine that is now Israel. Arabs remaining in Israel numbered 140,000. Conveniently not mentioned was that only 15% of these fleeing Arab “Palestinians” were actually landowners… the remainder were simply squatters! And practically never acknowledged by the Arab world was that 860,000 Jewish refugees who fled from Arab countries to Israel.
The Arabs in Israel had their shot at a Palestine state and rejected in and instead have attacked Isreal. They don’t want their own state – they want the complete destruction of Israel. And Israel has every right to defend itself.
Tell Hamas. If the Israelis were interested in genocide, there wouldn’t be a live Arab in Gaza.
ECS
And if Israel disappeared tonight the arabs and the rest of the muslims would be attacking some one else. THAT is their religion, their command, their one reason for life.
But I expect the trolls to jump up and blame Israel and the Jews for the muslim attacks in Kashmir, Kenya, the Sudan and Indonesia. But I imagine the Jews have some experience at getting blamed. They do poison wells I hear.
Don’t you just LOVE the smell of Napalm in the morning?
Dad says, “Don’t start a fight. But, if you find yourself in one… finish it.”
Um, are you forgetting that the Palestinians were not run out of Israel after the country was founded? The ‘Palestinians’ left to get out of the way of, what they thought would be, the slaughter of the Jews. They have a country–it’s called ‘Israel’ now.
Good to see you’re still here.
Now what exactly is your solution?
Still waiting.
Exactly right wight. Jordan and Egypt promised them the land after they wiped Israel out if they would stay out of the way. Only thing they didn’t count on was Egypt and Jordan getting their a$$es kicked.
Also, for anyone who can’t understand the difference between Israel and Hamas, paraphrasing local talk host Mark Davis sums it up well. “When Israel kills innocent bystanders it IS NOT intentional. When Hamas kills them it IS intentional.”
– lgm
No, the real difference is that Israel goes to incredible lengths to avoid killing innocent civilians, even to ridiculous lengths such as phoning warnings of impending attacks to civilians in the vicinity.
Contrast that with the Palestinians who intentionally target civilians.
That Israel is stronger militarily doesn’t mean it is evil. That Palestine is weaker militarily, doesn’t mean it is innocent or deserving of extra sympathy. You should drop that oh-so American tendency to root for the underdog, and look at it realistically.
lies. the arabs were not in the area, except for wandering bedoins, until the jews started to return to the land in the late 1800s…
link
It’s a matter of semantics. While Arabs are Semites, anti-Semitism has always referred specifically to hostility to Jews and Judaism.

From your lips to God’s ears.
From that I can only assume that either:
a) your mother said that in an attempt to break up a minor squabble between siblings or childhood friends, and never intended her comment to be applied to life and death struggles
or
b) your mother is an appalling moral relativist, and you would do well to disregard any advice she gives you.
And you know what? I’m pretty sure if I came by your house every night for two years to throw a hand grenade in your window you’d suddenly decide it matters a great deal who started it.
The Israeli Defense Forces goes to extreme lentghs, at the expense of their own safety and tactical advantage, to avoid civilian casualties. You have a really twisted definition of what constitutes genocide.
There are lots of things to know about Israel and the Palestinians. If you only say half, even if what you say is true, it is not the story. The parts you’re not admitting to include that in the west bank today, and since 1967, there is an ongoing Israeli operation to take over Palestinian land. Sometimes in the name of security, and sometimes at the point of a settler’s gun without any excuse. According to international law, the whole west bank is occupied territory. Creating settlements of any kind on occupied territory is illegal. All the settlements there are illegal.
You also should know that there are lots of bogus numbers out there. There is a British census from 1930 showing about 3 million Arabs (Palestinians) in what now is Israel and Palestine. I don’t know about the population of Jerusalem itself, but I am skeptical of the numbers given above.
“Antisemitism (alternatively spelled anti-semitism or anti-Semitism; also rarely known as judeophobia) is prejudice against or hostility toward Jews as a group. The prejudice or hostility is usually characterized by a combination of religious, racial, cultural and ethnic biases. While the term’s etymology might suggest that antisemitism is directed against all Semitic peoples, since its creation it has been used exclusively to refer to hostility towards Jews.[1][2]”

Do you want me to help you with the big words?
ECS
By WHO? According to WHOM? Propaganda, all of it!
Again, Israel WITHDREW from the West Bank and Gaza, you stupid twit. And they were thanked by Hamas with rocket fire.
And here I thought you were an academic atheist who merely thinks it is “cool” to be pro-Palestinian.
Instead I think you are an anti-semitic anti-civilization nihilist.
Ok, take a deep breath fellas.
I’m an athiest, and my two closest friends are athiests. Each of us knows more about more different faiths than any religious person I’ve ever met, excepting those whose specific job in life was to teach such things.
Each of thinks the US Constitution is the most brilliant political document ever written. And we mean the entire Constitution, none of this “skipping the amendments we don’t like” BS. We think the country created by that Constitution is the best and brightest men have yet made and that it should be vigorously defended from all enemies.
Two out of three of us are veterans, having served during Desert Storm.
None of us particularly care if you want to put a Christmas tree or a Nativity Scene on public land. You want to hang the Ten Commandments in court? Fine by me. If you wish me a “Merry Christmas” my response is going to be “Thanks, to you as well!”
And, finally, although we don’t believe in god we can see the glaring, obvious differences among people who do. People bring up the Spanish Inquisition or the Crusades and say “see? they’re all the same!” are ignoring the fact that I don’t give a crap about what happened 500 years ago on another continent. Today, here and now, there is one religion whose believers are out there trying to climb to heaven on a pile of dead civilians… and it ain’t Baptists.
In short: we don’t believe in your god, but we do share most of your values. And we do know right from wrong.
It would be unjust (and really foolish) to assume that Father Pfleger and Al Sharpton are representative of all Christians. I’d ask you to remember the flip-side of that… not every athiest is a Michael Newdow or LGM.

This churchgoing Catholic thanks you for a lovely post.
And, no, I don’t hold you responsible for the actions of all atheists any more than you hold me responsible for the Crusades or the Inquisition.
Happy Friday!
For me the whole moral relativist argument about who’s trying to exterminate whom can be settled by comparing the answers to two simple questions.
1) How are law-abiding Arabs treated in Jerusalem?
2) How are law-abiding Jews treated in Mecca?
(yes, number 2 is a trick question)
You’re welcome.
And a belated Merry Christmas to you

Yet they keep building settlements. The Israeli population in the west bank keeps growing.
FilmLadd said (#46):
Cool.
Why don’t all of you people on this thread follow Joe the plumber and move to Israel?
LGM,
As far as the west bank is concerned, you are somewhat correct. Israel didnt annex the teritory from Arabs…or they would have kicked them all out and then built the settlements. By definition, the area was taken as right of conquest (at least thats how i see it), and along with the fact that both the British and the Jordanians relinquished their hold on it previously. It’s more complicated than that obviously, but…
I dont see where giving the WB, or anything else, to anyone else, would solve the problem. Give the WB to Jordan…and then open up Gaza for Hamas…but where does the land redistribution stop? Whats the next piece of the pie to be given away, because we can rest assured those wouldnt be the only things requested.
But were not the Jewish people also settled in these areas thousands of years ago? And where would you have them go? Move to Iran? Syria?
I believe, personally, as far as the state of Israel, what’s done is done. They have created a state there, through policy and treaty. The people screaming the loudest about “territorial grabbing” are the same people like Hamas, who have a charter for destroying Israel and have no problem slitting the throat of every man, woman, and child there for simply existing.
If Israel wants to bomb the bejesus out of Hamas for shooting rockets over, AFTER they’ve asked mulitple times for them to stop…well, then I say screw public opinion, let the bombs fall on the heads of those who brought it upon themselves.
One more point…my mom taught me something too..
but she always added for me and my siblings:
Because I dont want to be your neighbor, that close to Iran.
Or why dont you move? I dont see you packing your bags?
Imbecile.
Ilovemycountry, why don’t you brain-dead liberal socialists move to North Korea? Your views on the world coincide so I’m sure you will be welcomed there. Until you start asking for things like food, or free speech, or the right to vote.

“They?” You mean Jews? Who gives a damn? Private citizen-Arabs and Christians build homes and settle in Israel all day long. Israel isn’t whining to the media about THAT. In fact it gives them the right to vote.
Your beloved Mohammadens, however, would be more than happy to slit throats.
Explain why private citizens can’t settle on land in the West Bank if they happen to be Jewish.
Ariel Sharon used military force to shut down the settlements made by the Israeli government. Point out on a map where Israel is building settlements (and not private citizens).
No, it isn’t cool and neither are you. But at least you owned up to it, even if you were trying to discredit the remark by trying to appear hip and ironic.
Scum.
Just a thought, here:
If we applied the same sensibility espoused by the likes of lgm and ILMCuba, the US would be handing the southwest back to Mexico. After all, we captured it in warfare, didn’t we? We then settled it, didn’t we? Is there any real difference?
The stupid thing is, a lot of them DO advocate giving the southwest back to Mexico.
So at least they have consistency going for them.
Yep. Just like the Pinheads that lay the violence at the feet of Israel when they have bent over backward in the last 15 years to appease the terrorist culture.
abstractmind (#49):
How about if Hamas wants to shoot rockets to get Israelis to stop stealing Palestinian land?
FilmLadd said (#52):
The same reason I can’t “settle” in your house, it belongs to you, not me. The same reason you don’t want illegal immigrants “settling” in the US. It’s not their country.
It works like this: some militant settler puts a prefab trailer dwelling on some Palestinian’s field. Then the Israeli army occupies the rest of the field to guard the settler family. Then a Palestinian throws rocks at the settlers, so the Israeli army has to remove them and destroy their homes & give the whole farm to the settlers.
Mexico is ” Getting it back ” as we speak…
Sources, please. Something from the last two years, please. Something not written by Hamas, Hizbollah, or some other mohammaden.
Show me a picture of a trailer on the West Bank that the Israeli Army is protecting, one that was put into place in the last two years.
You know, I really wish I could argue with that. But at least for now there are fewer hombres hanging out in front of the Santa Ana Home Depot down the street from here. It’s a start….
I am careful about which charities I contribute to. The faith based (Christian) charities do a much better job in using most of the money to help the poor.
***
My choices are the Salvation Army, World Vision, Food for the Poor, International Federation of Christians and Jews, and a Ciudad Juarez Mexico orphans and needy homeless shelter group–run by a Catholic lady. About 90 percent of my money feeds someone–or provides clothing, medical care, clean water, schooling, etc.
***
Other more well known charitable groups (Red Cross is one) keep 75 percent of your donation for their organization expenses. Only 25 percent reaches the needy person.
***
Other groups like UNICEF have political agendas that may not be what you want to support.
***
I was in Boston 40 years ago when an Irish terrorist supporting lady (a member of British Parliment yet) was asking for cash donations in a big meeting in a park. Many people were giving her $100 dollar bills–each bill probably bought 500 cartridges–or 20 hand grenades–or 10 pounds of plastic explosive! She was “helping out” the Protestant people in Northern Ireland–to go from this life to the next.

Be careful who you give to.

I’m sure you are. You’ve proven youself to be skeptical of anything that doesn’t fit your skewed version of the world, no matter how solid the contrary evidence presented to you. This is, primarily, why you’re referred to as a troll.
– lgm
Let’s cut to the chase here. Hamas heads the Palestinians. They are an organization whose founding charter includes the annhilation of Israel.
As long as that continues to be the case, it should be taken as evidence of Israel’s magnanimity that they haven’t expelled the entire Palestinian population from both Gaza AND the West Bank.
This is truly amazing! Lgm, who has said, is of Jewish descent, takes the side of the Palestinians, who are supported by Iran.
Now, Iran, formerly known as Persia, sided with Nazi Germany, prior to, and during WWII. The leaders of Persia were go infatuated by the Nazi’s, that they decided to honor that infatuation by renaming Persia, Iran…as in “Aryan.”
We know what the Nazi’s did to the Jews, and as “good little Hitler’s,” the current Iranian regime denies the holocaust. They continue to support the killing of innocent Jews, not by gas chambers, but by indiscriminate bombarding by Grad rockets they supply.
And LGM supports, defends, and attempts to rationalize these despicable actions. Like I said…amazing!

Because Israel, while being a close ally, is not my country and not my home.
You know what would be really, hysterically funny though? Why don’t you try to make us move.
I made sure none of my $$$ went to anything supporting UNICEF a long time ago. There are a lot of great charities out there for my money and I just can’t justify UNICEF. They are against International Adoption. As a mother of a daughter from China, I have better places to donate my dollars.
You can measure Israel’s military successes by how shrill Jew-hating racist pigs like lgm become. The Jews are winning. They are losing. That’s all we really need to know.
The following is how the Gaza situation is reported on in the mainstream news in Malaysia – supposedly, a ‘moderate’ Muslim nation. Obamessiah only knows what it’s like in ‘radical’ Muslim nations.
(All examples were witnessed firsthand by this writer. All phrases in quotes are translated from the local Malay language the news is reported in.)
The term Israel is never used – the preferred term is ‘Zionist regime’, often with an adjective such as ‘brutal’ or ‘cruel’.
Only the Palestinian side of the story is shown and talked about – wounded Palestinians civilians, destroyed Palestinian homes, suffering of Palestinians, pro-Palestinian personalities interviewed.
The daily rocket attacks on Israel are not even mentioned, nor the Hamas attack positions that are destroyed. Seldom is it mentioned why Israel even switched to the offensive, intentionally leaving the impression that Israel invades Gaza as a hobby.
Pleas for donations to help the Palestinians are regularly broadcast – none for Israel, of course.
On the front page of the leading English daily, the rocket attacks from Lebanon are described as *slightly* wounding two Israelis. This adjective would never be used for Palestinians, of course.
The US always gives ‘unconditional support to Israel’ – no mention of the valid and rational reasons why the US does so.
Israel will not stop ‘until it controls all of West Asia’ – not even Palestine or the Middle East.
And the most blatant part – Israel didn’t unintentionally kill Palestinians. It didn’t even murder them. It ‘drank the blood of Palestinian citizens’. I kid you not.
Reported by Scott, ‘The Leading Malaysian Neocon’

I do not believe that the conflict in the Middle East is about land, or different ethnic or religious groups. It is about control (power over people). The Koran specifies that people should be kept ignorant, learning other than the Koran is taboo. Ignorant populations are easily controlled. Ignorance and hate are what bind the Islamist together, and then only marginally. If there were no Israel, then there would be no supporters of Israel, who then would the Islamist direct their hate, the Hindus? They would absolutely have to find some group or nationality to preach hate towards in order to maintain power. The USSR did the same thing to maintain power for the elite. If Israel or any nation wants to overcome the Islamic terror, they must attack the source of hate.
BECAUSE there are people like you in OUR county who bear watching and stopping. But we await Joe’s safe return.
