Brad – the objection is that Jews are sayanim, traitors advancing the interests of a foreign government. That’s what’s wrong with it.

Rehmat: Your link deals with the one incident, but as I said, there have been many.

BBC: Substantiate your claim that it is Jewish controlled. I see no evidence of that.

And if the BBC is Jewish controlled, what is your objection to that?

So no answer as to how many Palestinian women were raped since the occupation started? I mean it has to be A LOT to have the Palestinians feel it is a real threat.
It coun’t be around zero could it?

@Brad Brzezinski – Jewish-controlled BBC had also claimed Saddam Hussein had WMDs as it’s now claiming Assad is going to use WMDs on Syrian (read US-Israeli funded insurgents).

Read the Zionist lies debunked at a Jewish-owned website.

Rehmat: “Wipe Israel off the map” was used (and defended) by both Reuters and the BBC. It was also used in Iranian government English websites.

Here is a BBC explanation for their use of the phrase.

I’ll also mention that there’s a big argument about this one particular occasion in October 2005 when Iran made this threat because it caught international attention. The truth is that Iran has made similar threats both before and since this event. Iran’s government is bellicose and belligerent; just because they threaten Israel the international whipping boy, does not change that.

@Patrick Jones

The English translation of Meshaal’s speech reported by western media was done by Jewish-Israeli MEMRI which Ahmadinejad’s famous quote: “Wipe Israel off map”.

Addressing a crowd of estimated 500,000, Meshaal said that Palestinian will never recognize the legitimacy of Zionist occupation. He said that Palestinian don’t fight Jews but the Zionists who are occupying Palestinian land. “We will continue to fight them until we recover Palestine inch by inch,” he said, adding that ”liberating Palestine, all of Palestine, is the duty and right and goal of all Arabs and Muslims“.

Most political informed public don’t believe the “poor little Israel” any more. It’s world’s fourth largest airforce and 300 nuclear bombs. Economically, Israel is doing for better than its donor United States. Growing by 7.8% in 2010, the Israeli economy ranked fifth highest in growth among the world’s most prosperous OECD’s 34 members. Israel’s growth outstripped that of the United States, Britain, Japan, Germany and France.

Alan, were Meshal’s defiant words wise politically? Are you convinced that the supposed letter from Netanyahu is authentic?

Also, I am constantly dismayed at the name-calling I find in comment sections. I don’t agree with Netanyahu, et al, for one nano-second. But calling him an idiot is simply a personal attack and does not advance the discussion one iota. It’s language I expect from the uninformed and who choose not to argue based on fact, not from people who are educated about this issue.

Shocking so how many Palestinian women were actually raped by Israelis since 1967?

Alan, all your posts are priceless, but this one takes the biscuit. I reached the conclusion some time ago that the “masters of the Universe”, all our rulers, be they politiciams or financeers, are psychopaths. But some are more pshycopathic than others, obviously. Also, some are dowright hysterical.
As for the point of Israel destroying itself…again, I advanced that possibility three years ago. But three years ago this could not be said in public. Lots of things that are now being said openly were taboo just 5 years ago. Will this make any diffrence to the situation? I wish I could think so.
Thanks anyway.
