Another reason to boycott Israel and the Jews - please

One can only hope that the anti-Semites will choose to follow through on their boycott of Israeli and Jewish products.

The latest product we demand the anti-Semites boycott is an anti-radiation pill that provides the patient with a high survivability against radiation sickness- even from radiation levels like those of the Chernobyl disaster.

The pill was developed in a joint effort between an American Jewish scientist and an Israeli researcher.

The drug is estimated to be approved by the FDA within a year or two.

Furthermore, besides adding a significant layer of protection against Arab/Islamic/Iranian terrorist's dirty and nuclear bombs and missiles, it might also allow for higher radiation exposures for cancer patients and help them with their treatment.


Unfortunately, one can't count on anti-Semites to not be hypocritical, but one can dream.

Hareidi Riots

I don't know if the Hareidi boy is sick (like the Hareidim claim), or his mother is the sick (like the police and hospital claim).
We'll perhaps have the answer to that in a few days.


But what the heck is going on over there with all these Hareidi riots?

Is it too hot outside and there's no air conditioning? Do they need a TV to help pass the evening? Is someone playing political games?

Very strange.

Stealing History

Is it hate, ignorance or apathy that lets the enemies of Israel boldly lie while accepting those lies at face value and with moral equivalence.

It's nothing new that the "Palestinians" have been trying to steal Jewish history and claim it for their own.

And what they can't claim, they try to destroy.

From their claims that there was no Temple on the Temple Mount where they temporarily parked their mosques, to the destruction of ancient Jewish religious sites and artifacts on the Temple Mount and throughout the country - the examples are unfortunately countless.

Their latest claim is that Israel looted and stole the Dead Sea Scrolls.

One doesn't know whether to laugh (or cry) and the utter patheticness of this latest claim, or be concerned that if the "Palestinians" can't claim the Isaiah Scroll and other biblical scrolls for themselves they may try to destroy them instead.

If I were living in Toronto, I would demand extra guards at the Royal Ontario Museum.

No Bullets, No Booze

If you follow the Muqata twitter, you would have noticed a few days ago that I mentioned that England has decided to begin a partial arms embargo on the Jewish State.

In retaliation for defending ourselves against Gaza terrorism, the UK has decided to place an embargo on replacement parts for some of the guns that our navy uses on the Saar 4.5 gunboats.

Now I've discussed boycotts against Israel extensively in the past.

The funny thing about embargoes and boycotts is that they can go both ways.

Turkey, for instance, decided to insult our President and deride Israel for defending ourselves. Israelis in return decided to boycott Turkey, and as a result, tourism from Israel (which was very significant) has dropped to almost nothing, and the Turkish government is beside itself as a result.

But there are other practical steps one can take on an individual level.

For instance, not long ago, the British government was lobbying the Israeli government to reduce liquor taxes, to boost sales in Israel of Scotch whisky.

With annual exports in excess of £2bn, Scotch Whisky is one of the UK's leading exports and supports thousands of jobs across the economy.

Well there you go. You can shoot off this quick EMAIL to the "Scotch Whisky Association".

Dear Sirs,

I love your country's Scotch Whiskey, but due to the decision of your government to place a partial arms embargo against the State of Israel for rightfully defending themselves against acts of terrorism emanating from the Gaza strip, I must regretfully return the favor and boycott all Scotch whiskey produced in the United Kingdom (and encourage all my friends and associates who support Israel to boycott your products as well), until such time that your government chooses to rescind their decision.

Sincerely,
YOUR NAME [replace your name here]

Now obviously, no one wants to boycott Scotch Whisky, but isn't this email the least our Kiddush clubs can do for our Jewish State?


Up to $10,000 in scholarships, loans and grants for Jewish men (ages 20-30) to acquire a year of learning in Israel at Yeshivat Hamivtar.

Shooting ourselves in the foot (again)

Now Israel is considering allowing the PA to train "special forces units" to go along with their regular army units.

Hey Bibi, what happened to "demilitarized"?

Do you understand the word differently than me?

One of the proven-to-be-false assumptions of Oslo was that we can help defend ourselves by outsourcing fighting the terrorists who hate us to other terrorists who also hate us.

That obviously didn't and could never work out - and in fact we've seen (and see) on more than one occasion that the bad terrorists are actually listed on the payrolls of the good terrorists.

Yet here we are, doing it again.


(And just to remind you of the Makor Rishon report that says that Hamas has unequivocally infiltrated into the new PA army.)

Netanyahu-Mitchell meeting canceled?

Has the Netanyahu-Mitchell meeting canceled? There was supposed to be a meeting 2 weeks after the Ehud Barak meeting, which happened because Netanyahu blew off/fobbed off Mitchell before the first planned meeting.

Now the State Department won't give out a date for the next meeting.

Could Bibi be doing the right thing, and be avoiding Mitchell, and showing him how unproductive a relationship it's going to be?

Meanwhile, the State Department says that the US has not changed it opinion on the complete Settlement free, despite reports in certain Israel papers.

Not even chased out!

In a recent interview, chief PA terrorist Mahmoud Abbas explains that his family was not chased out of Tzfat (where he was born) in 1948 by the Jewish army (or by any force at all).

His family left on its own because they feared the Jews would take revenge on them for participating in the slaughter of 20 Jews in that city 19 years earlier.

They were so sure the "Zionists" would now take revenge on them, now that they had the power to do so, that they ran away to escape justice.

You can read more about it on A7.

Lessons never learned

So once again Israel is transfering weapons to the Palestinian Terrorist Authority.

This time it's 1000 Kalashnikov rifles (AK-47s). The delivery was delayed while Israel ran ballistic tests on every gun so they would know that when one of the PA terrorists kills a Jew they could properly identify the gun.

Gee, thanks.


To remind everyone, last week Makor-Rishon reported that Hamas had successfully infiltrated its men into the new PA army - though I won't be blaming Hamas for the next terror attack.

Does the Road to Iran go through "Palestine'?

Does the Road to Iran go through "Palestine"?

Obama claims that to be the case.

His administration believes that no Arab coalition against Iran can be built without there first being a resolution to the Palestinian issue. We settlers are the obstacle to peace and are enabling a nuclear Iran.

The Israelis and other analysts disagree.

Saudi Arabia and the other Arab states are much more threatened by a nuclear Iran then they are by a Palestinian State (which they don't really want either).

Having a Palestinian State means they can't blame Israel for their own dictatorial failures anymore.

And while the only thing more valuable to them than having that scapegoat is destroying the scapegoat, but since the destruction of Israel is not imminent on their part, they are more scared of what Iran will be able to do to them, then what Iran could do to Israel.

In fact, just the other day Mossad chief Meir Dagan told Bibi Netanyahu, that Saudi Arabia will allow Israel to overfly its territory on the way to destroying Iran's nuclear facilities. Other Israeli officials have mentioned the quiet working relationship with the Saudi dictators.

And from Saudi point of view, this could solve one if not two thorns in their side.

Israel destroys Iran's nuclear capabilities, and if they're lucky, Iran destroys Israel in return.

Could the Road to Iran go through Saudi Arabia, while "Palestine" remains a dead end alley filled with petty criminals and muggers?

I think the answer remains yes.
