Inter alia, Kedar wants to stop funding the PA and shut them down in Jerusalem/ He doesn’t go far enough. Israel should abrogate Oslo. Ted Belman
Israel can withstand and overcome the current wave of violence, which is just another chapter in the struggle against Arab and Islamist hatred. But to do so, there are concrete steps that Israel should take – now.
The problem:
During these difficult days of increasing terror, the most urgent question is: What can we do in order to cope optimally with the growing terrorist violence in Israel, knowing that behind the scenes there are several players who are expending intense efforts to bring about an explosion.
Leading the pack is Hamas, whose goal is to become the undisputed leader of the Palestinian Arabs at the expense of the Palestinian Authority – and, for good measure, giving Sisi something to remember.
Supporting Hamas is a coalition composed of Qatar and Turkey, with unlimited sources of funds.
The PLO, at the same time, is trying to hold on to first place and cannot allow itself to appear less extreme than Hamas, for fear it will be accused of cooperating with Israel. This is the origin of the two-faced behavior of the PA: on the one hand, it presents a cooperative face to Israel and on the other hand, it stabs Israel in the back, through incitement and education, on the street and in international forums.
Qatar bases its standing in the Arab world and the West by pouring oil on the fire, exactly as it does with Islamic State. Hypocritically, in the usual Qatari fashion, it funds Islamic state while, as part of the Western coalition, it expresses support for those who fight it.
Behind the scenes of the growing terror Israel faces stands Islamic State, the model for successful battles against the enemies of Islam: massacre the enemy, act with extreme violence and use fast vehicles that give the impression of Jihad’s sweeping, advancing victory. The murderers who entered the Jerusalem Synagogue did not bring long butcher’s cleavers for nothing.
The answer:
The time for politically correct euphemisms is over and the unpleasant truth must be told as it is.First of all, Israel must say emphatically: the Palestinian Authority established on the basis of the Oslo Accords is an enemy entity, an enemy whose goal is establishing an Arab state in place of Israel, not alongside Israel, but on its ruins. That is the reason the Oslo Accords were violated so blatantly and thoroughly by the other side, resulting in them being declared null and void..
In addition, Israel must cease funding the PA on the basis of economic agreements derived from the Oslo Accords. There is no other country that funds an enemy entity, and there is no reason for Israel to be the only country that acts in such a delusional manner.
The government of Israel must condemn those among us who were instrumental in giving us the “New Middle East”, even those who once held posts of high honor.
2. Israel must announce as clearly as possible that Jerusalem is not a subject in any negotiations with anyone. It was never the capital of any entity connected to the Arab or Islamic world and was never ruled by a king, sultan, emir or caliph, so that there is no historical or legal basis for demanding that it be the capital of any state other than Israel.
3. Israel has to remind the entire world that Judea, Samaria and Eastern Jerusalem were areas occupied by Jordan for 19 years, from May 1948 until June 1967. Had the Arab world felt it was just and necessary, it could have established a Palestinian state with Jerusalem as its capital then, without anyone in the world disputing it. The Arabs refrained from doing that for the 7000 days in which Jordan had control of the area and therefore have no right to demand from Israel what they did not demand from themselves.
5. Israel must immediately shut down all the PA institutions in Jerusalem and any governmental entity that is not that of the state of Israel. Sovereignty cannot be shared or compromised on, because he who compromises with regard to his sovereignty loses it.
6.The police must issue a restraining order against all Islamic Movement activists, first and foremost to Sheikh Raad Salah and his deputy Sheikh Kamal el Khatib. After that, the possibility of issuing an order forbidding them to leave Um El Fahem and Kafr Kana should be considered.
7. Israel must immediately shut down all the Hamas TV stations broadcasting in Judea and Samaria.
8. Israel must keep the bodies of all dead terrorists who committed terror attacks. To all events, Israel must forbid their burial in Jerusalem, especially not in the vicinity of the Temple Mount, because burial in that spot is an expression of pride in the shahid and encourages more terror.
9. Israel must announce that it is building a new neighborhood, a new settlement or at least a new building in Jerusalem or Judea and Samaria in memory of every terror victim. Let the terrorists discover that terror makes the Jewish People’s connection to its land stronger.
10. Israel must change the way it views Europe. This continent is gradually turning into an Islamist area, and European politicians are becoming more and more dependent on the Muslim voter.They have to take stands dictated to them by the voters in their electoral district, and these brought their visceral hatred of Jews and Israel with them from their countries of origin. I do not see this pattern changing, so that for Israel, relying on Europe is a waste of effort at best and under normal circumstances, like entering hostile territory.
11. Israelis have to internalize the fact that their neighbors do not want them in the Middle East, and that Tel Aviv and Ramat Hasharon as seen as “settlements” just as Eli, Shilo and Neve Daniel are. The entire Peace industry is just froth topping the waves of the stormy waters of the Middle East. It succeeded in blinding us to the point where we did not accept the reality of the situation and it managed to neutralize the will of some of us to fight for our land and freedom, but it had no absolutely no effect on our neighbors.
12. Israel must develop a psychological mindset that prepares it for a multi-pronged struggle, because many of the countries in the world are against the existence of the state of Israel and will do anything to weaken its security, economic stability and legitimacy.
Israel must publicly condemn people, such as Martyn Indyk, who accept funding from countries like Qatar which uses its money to influence political stands vis a vis Israel.
13. Israel’s justice system must internalize the fact that we are struggling for our survival. We cannot relate to enemies of the state as if they are deserving of mercy at the hands of our country’s legal system. The legal system was not intended to make the state vulnerable but to base it on law and order so that it can continue to function during difficult times.
14. The people of Israel must trust in G-d and in themselves, they must be prepared to fight for their existence. This struggle is infinitely more important than what the Knesset and the media have been stressing – VAT on purchasing an apartment or any internal political struggle. Ministers and MK’s must rise above narrow party considerations and begin to lead the Jewish people in its struggle to keep its land, state and liberty.
@ yamit82:
notice in the video how the fight against IS is already morphing back into the fight agianst Irans proxies? the IS story got the approvals to bomb and fly the area and introduce ground troops. Its still the sunnis agianst the Shias or the western/GCC alliance against russia/Iran and proxies, with russia playing for its own interests.
yamit82 Said:
Isn’t that also libermans shtick: give the arabs the land they live on? Funny how I see no Jews in any square inch of arab controlled areas of former pal mandate(Jordan, gaza, PA west bank). None of them are concerned about keeping up appearances and neither is the world. Only the Jews follow the rules, every one else cons the Jews using their own suicidal vanities. All the Jews need to do is look at the muslims and do what they do(preferably IS).
@ bernard ross:
Israel annexed many Arab villages and refugee camps into the city limits of Jerusalem.. They were never part of Jerusalem past or present till they were annexed. Then we gave them Israeli identity cards giving them the status of permanent residents. Problem for the government is tjhey don’t want the Arabs and are sorry they gave some 400K Arabs not only free uninhibited access to all of Jerusalem they have access to all of Israel just as any citizen. There is no way the security services can protect the citizens of Jerusalem or the rest of the country as long as those 400K Arabs have freedom of access. Israel need just un annex those heavily populated Arab areas and hand them over to Abbas then fence em out
I think that’s the popular thinking of our political geniuses.

@ bernard ross:
From Tarpley:
House Foreign Affairs Chair Ed Royce referred on Nov. 13 on CNN to a “policy review,” making clear that US aggression against the Assad government of Syria was the desired goal. Royce recounted happily that the US strategy might now include a bombing campaign against the Assad government (the main barrier to ISIS) to impose a no-fly zone over Syria designed to please the treacherous President Erdogan of Turkey — who has been a strong backer of the ISIS butchers — and “other regional actors” including “the Gulf states” — i.e. Qatar. Royce indicated that the US air campaign, including the overthrow of Assad, would be the price for a Turkish invasion of Syria with troops and tanks. All of this would add up to a general war in the Middle East — which may well be the goal of the more lucid of these plotters.
Royce also praised disgraced Marine General John R. Allen, once the deputy chief of the US Central Command for the Middle East, who was forced to resign after the revelation of his extensive and dubious email correspondence with the mysterious Lebanese society woman Gilberte “Jill” Khawam Kelley was revealed in November 2012. Allen, along with his colleague David Petraeus, was one of about two dozen generals and admirals forced out of the military after the Benghazi incident, which was a provocation to deliver the presidency to Romney, and has been compared to a warmonger putsch.
On September 13, 2014, Allen — although demonstrably a serious security risk — was appointed by Skull & Bones Secretary of State John Kerry as “Special Presidential Envoy for the Global Coalition to Counter ISIL” based in the State Department — in effect, as ISIS Czar. Despite Allen’s checkered past, there was little media hue and cry. Allen was malodorous enough to be denied his promised Supreme Command in NATO after his missives to Kelley were revealed, but he somehow was rehabilitated in time for ISIS. Allen’s job description is to “sustain the coalition so it can operate across multiple lines of effort in order to degrade and ultimately destroy ISIL.” Is Allen a focus of the defeatism and internal self-sabotage which has crippled the anti-ISIS effort? Has he been responsible for coddling Erdogan’s and Qatar’s pro-ISIS treachery? As part of the Petraeus faction, Allen must in any case be considered as a dangerous advocate of escalation and wider wars.
Allen’s sidekick is the randy Brett McGurk, a former National Security Council official who was denied confirmation as US Ambassador in Iraq in June 2012 when Cryptome published a series of his scabrous emails sent to Wall Street Journal reporter Gina Chon. Kerry soon rewarded McGurk the “Iraq expert” with the post of Deputy Assistant Secretary of State.
Allen and McGurk are thus both rejects, who should have been stripped long ago of the security clearances they need to hold these jobs. It appears they are both serving as advocates for Turkey, Qatar, and the Moslem Brotherhood. They should both be fired at once.

@ yamit82:
HMMMM? attracting radical jihadis from western countries,,how convenient for those countries.
I wonder who organized and trained them?
yamit82 Said:
the russian is the interesting one to watch. It appears that the GCC is trying to influence russia to reduce its support or limit its support for Assad and Iran. There is this view that it is also a slap in Obama’s face. However, I expect to see Obama rapproche with Egypt, etc and would even not be surprised if Obama supported this scenario. Perhaps there are trades, quid pro quos in various theaters. Perhaps the west is offering russia carrots and sticks. Remember the syrian russian chem agreement that obama took credit for; obama likes diplomatic solutions that give him credit. rember Obama told putin that he could be more flexible after the election…who knows what these puppet shows really mean?
yamit82 Said:
an old story but it is the background for the gulf war agianst Irans proxies. Noticeable the saudis made an agreement with iran over Lebanon,now falling to pieces, but it does show the ability of the monarchies to suddenly shift their tactics and strategy and accommodating with an enemy. thus BB’s strategy wrt the gulf arabs is subject to this unreliable propensity.
@ yamit82:
war agianst irans proxies
it is the political independence from the control of the GCC. therefore they coopt as did qatar with hamas, decimate the leadership for possible reconstitution under GCC control, or destroy it completely with the goal of absorbing MB jihadis into the salafi groups. I beleive they prefer to have their enemies close and prefer to control them calndestinely from above rather than drive the MB into hiding as a competitive threat. However, there is many a slip between cup and lip
@ yamit82:
although Egypt is to rapproche with the MB I beleive it is to be a re constituted MB getting rid of the top leadership who either were not team players, too independent, worked with Iran, welched on deals. they want the resources and influence of the MB but with their own (GCC)control. This started with qatar replacing Iran in controlling hamas.
yamit82 Said:
why assume that the chain of command has been broken and that field officers will refuse to follow orders from above? It is in all the details that make IS successful that you can see that it must have a strong chain of command. Even with oil flowing in the top echelon controls the new revenue. YOu keep forgetting this simple concept…without IS the sunni monarchies and the west would have NOT ONE SHRED of leverage in Iraq, Syria or Lebanon. IS replace the others because the others were to traceable to the US and saudis.
yamit82 Said:
We dont really know what IS views are except through news releases of quotes etc. That’s all a sham. repeating the mantras is obligatory, inc the anti israel mantras. Notice IS is not on Israels borders. YOu are forgetful of facts: the saudis and other arab states who joined the (LOL) alliance against IS were unable to find the targets and returned to bases without doing anything which is why the US ceased reporting on the results of their participation. since the Iraqi borders of Jordan and saudi by IS were taken we hear nothing more. NOw there can be free flow across those borders to IS with no interference from shia baghdad and no knowledge of any facts. Use your head, stop repeating what they want you to believe, the silly song and dance.
yamit82 Said:
this is why they will do anything including using a head chopping terror org like IS….but they have to maintain plausible deniability. Duh, what is the difference between IS behavior and the saudi behavior? Everything that IS does the saudis do under their own rule.
yamit82 Said:
I don’t believe they are really “fending off” IS, only pretending, there have been reports of minor incidents, probably for credibility for their farce. they are fighting Iran proxy jihadis.
yamit82 Said:
Not necessarily. Part of the IS scam is to allow the introduction of western flights and troops into Iraq and syria under the pretext of fighting IS. Remember that they are trying to squeeze a “deal” from iran not only on nukes but also on what happens in Syria, Iraq and lebanon. It is not a matter of winning but of squeezing concessions. Remember that IS on the ground is cannon fodder for those who operate them. Right now the skies of the area can be freely flown by western allies.
yamit82 Said:
Shia and sunni are the vehicles of recruitment for a non religious war of geopolitical goals. The shifting alliances of convenience is what Israel must be cautious of. At any moment all the jihadis can be sent to israels borders if the gulf rapproches Iran or if they are unable to keep the jihadis focused on the shias as opposed to a religious war with the jews. This is why I believe BB is very cautious in containing the religious aspect of the Mount and jerusalem. The monarchies are fickle and if public opinion becomes too strong they will refocus their jihadis. This is why they had the faux peace talks, to keep Israel out of the eye of their street while recruiting Jihadis to fight Irans proxies. Abbas and Hamas are playing this card and roiling the pot for the GCC and israel because they need their respective shares of the trough. I believe that Iran is behind most of the pal Israel conflict at this time and may create a major incident to get sunni jihadis to fight against Israel rather than their own proxies. this is why they keep talking about supporting the pals.

yamit82 Said:
that’s due to your perspective from that hole in the ground where you put your head like an ostrich. 😛 (sorry, apologies, just couldn’t resist the opening)
Seriously, think about it…it’s not me that’s hung up on legality, it’s the whole world except for Israel. I could see your point if Israel was not daily hindered from action it would have taken were it not for these canards. Think about this:
for decades Israel carefully avoids settling YS, for decades every time Israel builds it makes excuses based on that it’s already a jewish neighborhood, its in areas Israel will keep, etc etc. the bottom line is Israel is obstructed from settling jews as a result of the libel of jewish illegality and illegitimacy. therefore, ignoring it has only made it worse.
yamit82 Said:
then one must marvel at the brilliance of the pals and arabs who have lost many wars to Israel but manages to curtail the jews of every attempt to settle YS. Every little house mentioned becomes a major issue in Israels papers and in Israels behavior. therefore, if military might is the only strategy you have then you can already see its proven failure.
yamit82 Said:
Britain, the swindling trustee of the mandate also recognized their occupation. Obviously the analogy fails as although no one told Jordan to get out everyone tells Israel to get out.
yamit82 Said:
Apparently, winning those wars has NOT determined Israels borders
If Israel were not daily trying to avoid the damages of the libel of illegality I would say you might have a case but it is obvious that Israel is wagged like a tail on a dog, always having to take this libel into consideration as if it were the truth. Israels non reaction to this libel is tantamount to admitting guilt like someone accused of theft who does not even deny it. basically, the GOI is saying to the world: “Yes, we are illegal and illegitimate and we are only there for self-protection”. In this situation each war serves the purpose of stating this argument but now the world sees pal terrorism as legitimate resistance against Jewish thieves. Due to GOI silence neither Jew nor foreigner has any other logical argument agianst the libels that are even echoed in Israel.
the chief rabbi Yosef said that Jews going up to the Mount promote incitement, what should anyone outside of Israel think of such Jews?
It makes no sense to keep blaming the diaspora and even the foreigners when the GOI and even the religious sector reinforce the libels and give them credibility.
I want to see an Israeli FM call in all ambassadors and register the demand for the ceasing of the libels which contradict signed treaties to settle Jews in all of the mandate. The GOI should be seen to carry the banner of defending against libels and demanding observance of treaties. the EU,and others, can refuse but that should not stop the GOI from pointing them out as lying anti semites or ignorant dishonest fools. Even the weak pals can utter their words.
Israel is daily plagued because its leaders and government cannot utter these words:
Jewish settlement in any part of the pal mandate is legal and legitimate.
why are they, and you, unable to utter a few words? 🙁

@ bernard ross:
There is no doubt that the CIA and British MI6 were in back of the creation of ISIS funded by the Saudis and Qatar among others…. How much the still aid and control them NOW is another story.
The Saudis with their primary eye on Iran are trying to fend off her own Islamists including Isis by attempting to control them but i don’t think that the Saudis have the leverage today to do it sucesfully. ISIS views the corrupt reactionary monarchies no less than they view Shia Iran.
In the religious war between Sunni and Shi Islam there will be shifting alliances of convenience. No surprise there but if Obama allows Iran to get the bomb The Saudis and the other Gulf states don’t stand a chance. It will be a NEW ME and a New world order.
Isis and the MB will take Saudi money but I think real protection from any current Islamic militant group cannot be bought today.
Lets see who is next to fall at the hands of Isis and that might tell us who is running their show.
yamit82 Said:
Not sure of your point and how it relates to mine but the creation of a shadow sustainable entity was a hallmark of the CIA. the creation of shadow corporations with CIA secret budget and the corporations became sustainable business who did not have the need for the CIA money anymore but they continued to be controlled and used by individuals privately and related to govt in future operations. The makeup of IS and its strategy of seizing economic resources echoes that strategy. the presence of the ex saddam officers indicates the military command structure as demonstrated by the targets. I expect the CIA is involved with providing intelligence targets and direction. the CIA worked with and released sunnni jihadi figures at the “awakening” and probably are wll in touch with saddams officers just like they were with the nazi hierarchy after WWII. IS is a well directed entity which employs all the right aspects for a successful military campaign, including the use of terror and propaganda. Yamit told me that there were no coincidences.
did you notice how qatar is back in the fold just like I predicted but that saudi has also asked Egypt to reconcile with the MB. Lets watch how Obama reconciles with Egypt.
With Hilary we must expect more MBs all over the Administration!
@ jlevyellow:
The only recognized authority and administrative government of the Palis is the PA. Hamas executed a coup d’etat and threw the PA off roofs, shot them in the knees and dragged the leaders in Gaza through the street legs tied to back of pickups. The elections held were illegal.
The idea is to let them kill each other for power and Hamas should win, IDF will push them all up to the Euphrates. The Iraqis and Iranians should be able to finish them off.
How convenient there is no real government and or power like under Saddam in Iraq to oppose us. Quite fortuitous. 😉
yamit82 Said:
Half the world thinks Israel should negotiate with vermin of Hamas. Most of Israel’s support in the summer war was from other Arab countries. The Eurofilth would never support toppling a Hamas government (they were freely elected, weren’t they/sarc) and certainly the 0bama administration wouldn’t. Putin might just to piss them off.
@ bernard ross:
Sorry Bernie I feel you are too hung up On legality.
legality is now and always has been the by product of being on top in the geopolitical and military power equilibrium.
It’s always been the case of might makes legal. The whole concept of legality rights etc is in the final analysis the byproduct of military and or economic power dominance.
The weak and powerless have no rights and if they have any it will probably be taken from them by superior powers.
Jordan illegally occupied the west bank for 19 year nobody but Pakistan recognized them but nobody told them to get out either. If they didn’t lose it in war they would still be there and the world eventually would have recognized their claim.
Victorious wars determine borders and cause them to be regarded with respect and eventual legality.
@ bernard ross:
Seems to me Isis don’t need either saudi or Qatari money anymore. Where’s the leverage????
@ yamit82:
It may seem shrewd to allow Hamas to rule, but it is not wise. No matter how many political brownie points the Jews would win by showing how mean Hamas is, the number of innocent Jews who would die to make that point is not worth the cost. If, on the other hand, your plan would be to allow Hamas to take over and then have the IDF remove them to Madagascar or Atlantis, that would be acceptable. We all know that the GOI calculated (or guessed) that not wiping out Hamas in any of the three recent wars would leave a better political situation for Israel. From a safe seat in Khutz L’Aretz, I very tentatively disagree.
@ Bear Klein:
How do you figure? There is not a Jewish and or Zionist party that would reject an offer to join the coalition left, right and religious. Nobody goes into Israeli politics to be a legislator.
@ yamit82: He would not be able to form a coalition without Bennett in all likelihood that the other Likud Knesset members would agree to. You are right he would not if he had a choice but if Bennett gets near equal seats he would probably not have a choice.
@ bernard ross:
I don’t think he can the Haredim hate the religious Zionist more than the secular left. They think they are heretics.
BB will sit with almost anyone and Bennett can’t.
yamit82 Said:
If Bennett got the majority what would be your prognosis?
If Bennett won do you believe he would be able to form a coalition, if so with whom and how?
@ Bear Klein:
BB would never include Bennett in his coalition if he has other options. He didn’t include Kadima when they polled one more than Likud and ultimately dropped dead.
Most parties in opposition have no staying power.
If Bennett came in this close it is possible he could become Prime Minister. Worst case I believe he would become Defense Minister.
Likud would have to make Bayit HaYehudi an equal partner in any coalition not just part of the coalition. If this is not a temporary blip poll but reflects what happens in election, Bennett certainly would have a real power base. Let us see what happens internally in his party and Ariel does not kill the rise of Bayit HaYehdi.
@ bernard ross:
Not good
It means BB will resist New elections by hook or crook.
The only mention of Jewish settlement in all the land of Israel is justified by arab terror rather than its own legitimacy.
Once again there is no mention of the legality and legitimacy of Jewish settlement in all the land of israel……in its own right.
there, see how easily it is done…almost as easy as issuing a fatwa. Lots of red herrings and obfuscation which enabled the western GCC alliance to distance themselves from “jihadis”…..LOL, what a scam for the suckers who have been feeding on this BS and beleiving it all.
I have always said this is a false flag. that the so called split was to facilitate GCC control of the MB resources, wean them off Iran and recruit MB sunni jihadis for the sunni war. the much touted split is over.
yamit82 Said:
perhaps the same with the Jordan monarch…if the monarch fell the pals could be driven there because there would be no relationship to protect as an excuse.
BTW do you remember what I said about the Saudi qatar split which I beleived was a scam, well its over. Not only that Egypt is back on board with qatar too. the GCC has morphed back into its one face for the moment. perhaps there is no longer any need to keep the 2 faces. all the sunni jihadis, including IS are achiving the goals of the GCC/western alliance. Soon we will hear of obama returning to egypt as soon as the elections in egypt are considered “democratic”
My concern is that the GCC sunni raprrochement with Israel has been related to their proxy war with Iran. I beleive Iran is stirring up the problems in Israel to start a religous war to refocus the sunni jihadis on israel instead of them and their proxies. If an agreement arises with the GCC and Iran, or the GCC is unable to keep focus off Israel then the whole picture can change.I beleive again that BB’s caution in dealing with the muslims relates to trying to maintain the current relationships with the monarchies who also control egypt’s purse.

Israel should allow Hamas to topple Abu Mazen and the Fatah.
Let them fight and kill each other in the taking over.
Hamas in power takes the onus off of Israel and it would be easy to implement all and more of what Kedar suggests.
Israel viewing not a Peace partner but an avowed existential enemy in parts of Y&S would without much opposition at home or abroad annex as much of Y&S as she can digest at this time. IDF will be given the standing order to destroy Hamas and will effectively destroy Hamas leading the way for the necessary population transfer of the Arabs out of our lands and final annexation of all vacated land will result, International opposition to our moves should be met with in your face undiplomatic arguments to which “any attempt to support the government of Hamas” is a supporter of Islamic radical Terrorism and would amount to being complicit in the murder of Jews present and future.
I have always favored the concept of final shootout at the OK corral, to the generational Chinese torture MO, where we are bled to death from a thousand cuts over time.
Ideas in the right direction but as Ted says not far enough.
