Israel Deporting Christians from Jerusalem

QUOTE

Hundreds of Jerusalem Christians are loosing residency rights in their City due to policies of the Israeli Ministry of Interior. The policy that aims to reduce the number of non-Jews in the City takes its toll on families and individuals who hold residency permits at foreign countries. No matter how long they travel abroad, no matter if they were born in Jerusalem before or after Israel occupied East Jerusalem, they are considered visitors in their own city.

Palestinian Christians who make today not more than 9,000 will lose 15% of their population as a result of this policy. While Jews from all over the world and even converts to Judaism are allowed to immigrate to Israel under the Israeli Law of Return, the indigenous Jerusalemites are considered temporary residents. Originally, Seven years of being out of Jerusalem was the deadline for losing one's right to live in his own city. Now, only a proof of residency in another country is enough for Israel to consider Jerusalem as not "the center of life" for this person or family and thus deny them the right of living in their home town once they travel abroad.

In addition to this particular policy, the Israeli authorities are still implementing other regulations aiming at further decreasing the numbers of Palestinian, Christians and Moslems, in Jerusalem. From freezing the law of family reunion to impossible requirements for building in the city, to the Separation Wall that separated hundreds from the center of Jerusalem. Palestinian Christians of the city will soon lose half of their population.

Amazing isn't it?
What the Nazis did to them, they are doing to others now. And yet some still defend them and just love to bring up Jewish suffering over the years, as if to excuse what they are doing to others now as being insignificant. Like Jewish suffering is of more importance then others suffering at the hands of Jews.

And there's more..

Israel: Council warns Jewish girls against romance with Arabs

Kiryat Gat, 1 July (AKI) - A new school programme to prevent Jewish girls from becoming romantically involved with Israeli Bedouin Arabs has started in the town of Kiryat Gat in central Israel.

A report by Israeli daily Yedioth Ahronoth on Tuesday says that the city's welfare representative, police and council officials, are touring schools with a video called "Sleeping with the Enemy" to educate young women.

The 10-minute film, features a police officer and a woman from the US-based religious organisation, Yad Leachim, which works to prevent Jewish girls from dating Muslims.

The video uses -*test*-('")imonies from young women whose Bedouin boyfriends allegedly did not allow them to return home after ending the relationship.

"The girls, in their innocence, go with the exploitative Arab, the exploitative Bedouin, and she goes to bed with the enemy, which she doesnt know," said Chaim Shalom, who heads the municipality's community, welfare and health department.

"Whoever calls this racism doesn't know what they are talking about, because this isn't a matter of mutual exploitation" said Shalom.

"This is a matter of racism on their (Arabs) end, because they come here to exploit the girl, get rid of her once she gets pregnant and this entire problem becomes a double problem."

It also allegedly uses numerous passages from the Islamic holy book, the Koran, warning Islam's alleged 'danger' to women.

Arab Bedouins, a small minority within the Israeli Arab population, are citizens of Israel and many of them serve in the Israeli Defence Forces.

Nevertheless, local police have endorsed the project.

"Their (Arab) goal is to take advantage of the girls," a police officer said. "There is no element of love or an innocent friendly relationship here."

However, the Mayor of the southern Israeli city of Rahat, Talal al-Krenawi, an Israeli Bedouin, said he also did not support relationships between Jews and Bedouins.

"It hurts our families just like it hurts the Jews. It causes a lot of difficult problems and internal conflicts which often end in violence," he said.

"If there are children as a result of these relationships, it becomes a burden on our society. The difference is that we oppose this just like the Jews, but we never used racist expressions.......a person is allowed to live with whomever he wants. In any case, one can oppose something without presenting racist opinions," concluded al-Krenawi.

Yep, you read right.
You can't criticise Israel in this world without being labelled a Nazi and an anti-Semite, yet for them to discriminate and implement racist policies, is perfectly fine.

Yep it's really annoying how far you go with your genocide card. Get one and you're basically free to roam and kill, deport and be a racist cunt as much as you like. It's like moral immunity. And, it doesn't hurt that you have the most powerful lobby in the world backing you. What do these poor worthless Philistinians have? No genocide card, no lobby, no money...

You can't claim that these Israeli Jews are the victims here. Sure, both sides have acted like assholes over the years but the Israelis are particularly shameless when it comes to being dicks.

and then i was called racist when i said i hope everyone of these fascist jews gets a molotov shoved up their asses....

if there is any more vivid justification for the intifada..it is those pics....

these settlers are ten times worse than any hamas terrorist....what will our jewish apologist mates say about the nice slogan...gas the arabs?....

it was meant in jeast i guess....

and the west defends these assholes...the jewish state arms and protects them....the cause of the intifada, paelstinian conflict can be seen in everyone of those rabid right wing hating jews.....but ofcourse there not the majority of the jewish population...

the majority is peace loving....wants to live and let live....i guess to the palestinians this is cold comfort, when their massacred, kicked off their land...treated worse than shit....thank god i guess most israelis are peace loving... greekturkish/laugh.gif

U.S.-based group plans to challenge Gaza blockade with boats from Cyprus

ATHENS, Greece — A group of U.S.-based activists said Tuesday it will challenge Israel's blockade of the Palestinian territory by sailing boats from Cyprus to Gaza next week.

The Free Gaza group said it will make the trip in two Greek-flagged boats, after raising most of the $300,000 needed for the voyage from private donations.

Paul Larudee, one of the event's organizers, said the group will deliver 100 hearing aids to a Palestinian charity as a form of humanitarian aid.

"Israel says it's pulled out its soldiers from Gaza so they should have no objection to us going there," said Larudee, whose group is based in El Cerrito, Calif.

"We have been in contact with the authorities in Greece, in Cyprus and with the Palestinians ... There is no reason to contact the Israeli authorities because we will not be using their territory."

About 40 people from 16 countries, including Israelis and Palestinians, would take part in the event, he said during a news conference in Athens, adding that private boats were also invited to join the activists.

Israel imposed a blockade on Gaza after Hamas came to power last year.

Free Gaza organizer Greta Berlin said the group had bought two wooden sailboats that had been renamed for the voyage: The 21-metre Free Gaza and 18-metre Liberty.

The boats will sail from the Cypriot port of Larnaca to Gaza on Aug. 6 or 7, Berlin said.

"Our primary reason is for human rights but we will also carry a small amount of aid - 100 hearing aids that will be given to Palestinian children."

She said one aim was to create a permanent maritime link between Cyprus and Gaza. The activists have prepared publicity events if the trip to Gaza is blocked by Israel, Berlin said, including the release of 5,000 balloons from the boats.

If the ship is prevented from reaching Gaza, "we'll stay for 10 days at sea ... Then we'll go back to Cyprus and try again," she said.

In 1988, the Palestinian Liberation Organization staged an unsuccessful effort to sail from Cyprus to the Israeli port of Haifa. The ship, named the Sol Phryne, was damaged in a mine attack in the Cypriot port of Limassol. A day earlier, three PLO officers were killed in Limassol by a bomb planted in their car.

That voyage had been timed to coincide with 40 years since the founding of Israel. Next week's trip will mark the 60th anniversary, organizers said Tuesday.

I wouldn't be surprised if those activists were killed with an air strike and Israeli government would blame fishes for it. Just like they did in Rachel Corrie's case.

But it doesn't change the fact that Israel is a quite cosmopolit place and most radical peace activists i've seen in my life were also jews.

I don't think it's the "genocide card" or the "anti-semite" allegations that helps this inhumanity going unnoticed [although they are part of the tactics used to silence any opposition].

The heart of the issue is the massive U.S. support for Israeli government policy. As always, "anything goes" to secure the American interest in the Middle East.

It's a combination of things.
Certainly the US support for Israel has helped. Especially when any resolution in the UN aimed at Israel's racist/genocidal policies and actions, is vetoed by the Americans to protect Israel which allows it to keep doing what it does. Seriously, who is going to stand up or go against the worlds only super power, who has its military deployed to every corner of the globe and is virtually unchallenged in military power/capability?

But I also think the anti-semite/holocaust card plays as big role. They use it to distract from the real issues, the crimes Israel is committing. People have become too scared to speak out in fear of being labeled anti-semetic. Jewish lobby groups and the like have successfully turned "anti-semetic" into a no-no the world over. Nobody wants to be labelled as an anti-semetic.
I'll give you an example. Some years ago a con-*test*-('")ant on big brother here in Australia, called big brother a jew(at the time big brother was being stingy or something with food or whatever). Jewish groups here went ape shit over it, and the guy was kicked out of the house, and the Defence Force kicked him out of the army permanently.
There have been several cases were people in the house used the word Wog(originally a racial slur against southern europeans, but not so much anymore, however still used by some in such a manner). If we kicked up a fuss, do you think anything would have happened? Do you think anyone would have lost their job over it? Absolutely not.
Greece is criticized regularly for its supposed treatement of illegals, Turkey criticized for its treatement of Kurds...yet neither of us have a card to play like the anti-semite card the Israelis have.

Yep, USING a genocide card is as bad in itself, like the Armenian hatred of Turkey has become a cult with the useful of excuse of 'but they killed us all years back' - just look at the thousands of Armenian citizens that walked over the Turkish flag last week..

To the point, Israel is massively two faced and unbelievably guilty of double standards regarding their own history of persecution. Plus, from a personal point of view, the sight of small kids being brought up with religious clothing and having Uzis lovingly given to them with smiles is the ultimate image of what religion, any religion, can do and often does to humanity. greekturkish/shakehead.gif
