How to keep the Palestinian cause alive

In an article for today’s Ha’aretz, Henry Siegman, formerly the national director of the American Jewish Congress, argues that America is “irrelevant” to Middle East peacemaking because it won’t use its leverage over Israel and, therefore, that the Palestinians should resort to “a non-violent, anti-apartheid struggle.”

    It can’t hurt to remind the U.S. government at wh.gov and state.gov so I just sent the following:

    We must restore morality to the Israel/Palestine situation and punish Israel for the illegal settlements, abusing Palestinians, and stealing Palestinian land and resources. Surely you know the truth!

    Alan, Your Well thought out Plan of …( Peaceful Inaction of Non-Violence ) Is Something That These Creatures of Zionist Isreal Could Never Rise Above..Nor Subdue. It Would Work. But How Long Would IT Be Allowed TO Go-The-Course ?? The Palestinians Hemmed up In the Gaza strip Do not Have Any Time TO waste. They Must Begin THIS >Like Yesterday..AND Not Quit until THEY got THE Message thru That The Whole World IS Paying Attention..AND That Will BE the finish for isreal..From World Opinion!For Will be Dropped From Everything >>Every Podium They Have Had to do Their “Broadcasting” Will Turn AWAY from them.. It WILL Bring the Desired Effect. The Palestinians Can`t Ignore THIS Plan. TO Do so..Would Defeat them THRU Hunger and Need. Alan.. They Can`t afford to Not Do THIS. God Bless and Keep you Safe and Well, Alan ..

    Henry Siegman is another Israeli apologist. No colonial power has abandoned its occupation as result of non-voilent movements. It’s a myth created by the imperialists to fool their victims.

    As the old saying goes: “Those who live by sword, will die by sword.” Israel is a product of Jewish terrorism. Palestinians will only recover their lost land or part of it, by a military resistance. Lebanese Islamic Resistance Hizbullah has proved it twice – in 2000 and 2006.

    On March 10, 2014, commander of Israel Air Force air defense array, Maj-General Shachar Shohat, told a security conference at the Institute for National Security Studies Strategic, Innovative Policy-Oriented Research (INSS) that in the next war with Hizbullah or Hamas – Israel would have to face enemy drone carrying explosives.

    “We have to cope with dozens of pilotless aerial vehicles, in both the northern and southern fronts. The drones would range from radio-controlled model airplanes weighing a few kilos to large drones with payloads of hundreds of kilos,” said Shohat.

    The Palestinian People need to find some empty freight rail cars like we see the Jewish Folks in WWII videos.

    They need to place them in several places and use these freight cars to house the hungry, the wounded and the disposed.

    It was the images of tearful Jewish Folks being herded onto railway cars which helped cement world sympathy for the Jewish Folks.

    The pictures from the Nazi era was not what gave the state of Israel power, as Americans were against communism and the Jewish kibitzes, communes were exactly that. People were shocked when Truman announced support (which was only because he thought the Democrats would lose New York if he did not). Sympathy for Jewish people had nothing to do with it and anti-Semitism in the U.S. was quite alive at the time. (A new owner, who happened to be Jewish, of a thriving dime store in my home town in Iowa, got practically no business, so had to leave.)
