Palestinian racism exposed
By ALAN DERSHOWITZ

Recently, a young student at the Hebrew University was gunned down while jogging through a mixed neighborhood of Jews and Arabs in north Jerusalem. The Aksa Martyrs Brigade, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Yasser Arafat's Fatah movement, joyously claimed credit for the killing yet another innocent Jew.

When it was later learned that the jogger was a Jerusalem Arab and not a Jew, al-Aksa quickly apologized to the family, calling it an accident.

But the killing of the innocent young jogger was not an accident; the murderer had deliberately taken aim at his head and midsection, intending to end his life. The only thing accidental about the murder was the religion of the victim. Al-Aksa had sent the assassin to murder a Jew � any Jew, so long as he was a Jew.

This is racism, pure and simple. And despite efforts by supporters of Palestinian terrorism to justify the murder of innocent civilians as national liberation or by any other euphemism, this case proves that the Palestinian terrorists' targeting of Jews and only Jews � as many as possible � is little different in intent from other forms of lethal or exterminatory anti-Jewish murders. (I don't use the term anti-Semitic only because some Arabs claim that because they too are Semites, they can't be anti-Semitic.)

Obviously the numbers are different, because Israel is capable of defending its Jewish citizens, but if it were not, the goal of Palestinian terrorist groups would not be very different from that of previous groups intent on murdering as many Jews as possible.

The Web sites of various Palestinian terrorist groups proclaim � usually only in English and almost never in Arabic � that they have no quarrel with the Jews, only with the Zionists. Yet they target every Jew, regardless of his or her individual political views, and they apologize when they accidentally kill a non-Jew, regardless of his political views. The racist acts of these terrorist groups speak louder than their sanitized English-only anti-Zionist Web sites.

YET tHE international community � including the UN, the Vatican, and the European Union � claims to see no difference between Palestinian terrorists who target random Jewish civilians and the Israel Defense Forces that target specific mass murderers, such as Ahmed Yassin. It's all part of a "cycle of violence" in which both sides are morally equivalent, according to the double standard consistently applied against Israel by people who should know better.

The preventive killing of the mass murderer Sheikh Yassin received much more negative attention from the moral leaders of these organizations than did the racist attack that accidentally killed the young Arab. This failure � or refusal � to distinguish murder based on religious affiliation from preventive self-defense based on past and future murderous acts is the height of immorality. It would be as if the soldiers who killed Auschwitz guards in the process of liberating the inmates were deemed morally equivalent to the Auschwitz murderers.

It should not be surprising that Palestinian terrorists employ racist criteria in selecting their civilian targets, since the entire goal of Palestinian terrorism is racist to its core. It seeks to deny the Jewish people the right to self-determination. Under their version of Islamic law, it is impermissible for Jews to govern any land that was once under Muslim control, and it is equally impermissible for a Jewish majority to govern a Muslim minority, namely Israeli Arabs.

The time has come for the international community to listen to what Palestinian terrorists say to their own people: that this is a racist struggle to ethnically cleanse all Jews (except, they say, those Jews who lived there before 1917 and are willing to remain as a minority in a Muslim land).

The civilian targets are selected on a racist basis � all Jews are fair game, and if a non-Jew is killed, that is an unfortunate accident.

The terrorist killing of the young Jerusalem Arab student, coupled with the apology when it was learned he was not Jewish, was not only a tragedy for his family (which lost another member to a terrorist attack years earlier), but it is also a revealing episode in the history of Palestinian terrorism. All who hate racism should condemn the selective morality under which a deliberate Jewish civilian death is applauded and a deliberate Arab civilian death is regretted.

All deliberate targeting of non-combatants must be equally condemned. And the deliberate targeting of civilians based on their religion is to be especially condemned.

More Palestinian racism. Or I should say, Palestinian Nazism.

Security forces thwart planned holiday attacks
By MARGOT DUDKEVITCH

The Shin Bet and other security forces thwarted a number of suicide bomb attacks that were to have taken place inside Israel, as well as others that were to have been launched against IDF units and settlements in Judea and Samaria.

While there has been a noticeable decrease in violence, Shin Bet officials described the current situation as one of "imaginary calm."

Officials noted that while the ongoing closure imposed on Judea, Samaria, and the Gaza Strip assisted in hampering constant attempts by terrorists to launch attacks, the intensive operations conducted by the IDF, Shin Bet, and other security forces in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip to arrest fugitives has succeeded in thwarting numerous attempts.

Details of some of the operations included the arrest of a number of Palestinians in the Gaza Strip on April 5 which thwarted plans by Hamas, the Islamic Jihad, and the Fatah Tanzim to launch a triple suicide bomb attack in Israel.

Said Tsalah, 19, who was arrested by security forces at a Gush Katif roadblock revealed that plans were under way to smuggle three suicide bombers wearing three explosives belts through a tunnel from the Palestinian-controlled part of Rafah into Egypt, where they were to infiltrate into Israel from the Sinai posing as Israeli soldiers.

Another arrest on the same day of two Islamic Jihad fugitives at the Rafah crossing revealed plans to launch a suicide bomb attack in Beersheba or Tel Aviv by dispatching the bombers in a similar fashion.

The arrests of other fugitives by security forces in the West Bank revealed that Islamic Jihad and Fatah Tanzim cells based in the Balata refugee camp in Nablus planned to launch a number of suicide bomb attacks also inside Israel, and an attempted infiltration into the community of Emmanuel in Samaria.

Officials noted that the same Tanzim cell based in the Balata camp and other cells in Nablus were responsible for numerous attempts, including the dispatching of a female suicide bomber who was arrested on March 18.

Officials noted that between March 28 and April 11, security forces arrested 10 fugitives and three suicide bombers dispatched by the Nablus infrastructure, the same terror network which dispatched the two Palestinian minors last month arming them with bombs that were to have been detonated near troops deployed at the Hawara roadblock outside the city.

If the Arab they shot, was indeed an Israeli-Arab then it is as the article states - racism.

That's funny, I could have sworn that Finkelstein's "expos�e" was nothing more than a non-stop slur of rhetoric and ad hominem, coupled with the uncovering of a few minor typographical errors.

Not to say that Dershowitz is any angel either, but come on...

no! haven't you learned anything??

A term has to go through a long 10 page post debate political process before anythign can be even remotely agreed to.

You tink will just accept arbiter's definition like that???


I think though this thread should be labeled as a "so what" and "whats new about that" thread


Posted by George Smiley on Apr-13-2004 15:32:

Ok, whats the point here, that terrorists killed who they thought was a Jew, and that proves all Palestinians are racist?

If I can find an example of an Israeli killing a Palestinian for no reason, will you agree that all Israelis are racist?

I'm pretty sure there is a huge majority on both sides of the fence who simply hate the other side...

Of course not! I fully respect the 10-page rule in this forum. I just figured it could maybe help boost either thread's page count
