Former president Jimmy Carter didn't boycott Israel when he needed a cancer drug created there...

Hypocrite...

Via Free Beacon:
Former president Jimmy Carter, who in the past has been supportive of boycotts against Israel, is having his cancer treated by a “breakthrough” drug created in the Jewish state, according to reports.
Carter, who is being treated for cancer in his liver and brain, said he has been making a recovery since taking a cancer drug known as Keytruda, which was created by Israeli doctors.
Carter has been a vocal critic of Israel.
The drug is believed to be the next generation of treatment for cancer.
Carter has not commented on the fact that this drug was made by Israeli doctors.

MSNBC admits graphic showing Israel stole Palestine is wrong...

There never was a Palestine. Actually, most of the land depicted as Palestine was mostly inhabited by anyone.

Via FreeBeacon:
MSNBC has admitted that highly controversial graphics aired on the network that depicted Israel as stealing land from the Palestinians were factually wrong and that the broadcast would be corrected on Monday, according to a network spokesperson.
The cable news network has been fighting off criticism after it aired the graphics and analysis, including a map linked to conspiracy groups branded as anti-Semitic, that portrayed Israel as existing on territory expropriated from Palestine.
The graphics garnered criticism from pro-Israel advocates and has now prompted the network to acknowledge that the graphics were highly misleading.

Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas renounces Oslo Accords...

Since the Oslo Accords created the Palestinian Authority, which Abbas claims to head, and gave the Palestinians limited self-government over parts of the West Bank and Gaza, Israel should dissolve the Palestinian government and take over complete control of the West Bank and Gaza.

Via NY Times:
Demonstrating a new level of tension with Israel, President Mahmoud Abbas of the Palestinian Authority declared Wednesday that it was no longer bound by the Oslo Accords that formed the basis for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
In his annual General Assembly speech, Mr. Abbas accused Israel of having violated the accords and subsequent agreements. He asserted that there was no reason the Palestinians should remain faithful to them as long as the Israelis were not.

UN report confirms #Hamas used schoolchildren as human shields... #tcot #Israel

Cowards...

Via NY Post:
The headlines in most places were entirely predictable: “UN Says Israel Killed 44 Palestinians in Schools During Gaza War.” That was indeed one finding of a UN report published Monday — but only part of the story.
The report also confirmed something Israel’s been saying all along: Hamas stored mortars and other weapons in at least three UN schools during last summer’s war and fired rockets at Israel from two of them.
Israel repeatedly made that point during the conflict to explain why it was firing on schools (and mosques and hospitals) where Palestinians had taken refuge.
Because Hamas, desperate to win world sympathy by any means, has always been happy to use Palestinian innocents as human shields — the more casualties, the better.

Snub: Prime Minster Benjamin Netanyahu will not meet with Jimmy Carter...

Jimmy Carter went full moonbat as he aged. 

Via Washington Examiner:
Former President Jimmy Carter won’t be welcomed with open arms when he visits Israel in the coming weeks.
Israeli President Reuven Rivlin and Prime Minster Benjamin Netanyahu rejected a request from the former president to meet with them when he visits Israel in the coming weeks, a senior official told Haaretz.
The Foreign Ministry and the National Security Council of the Prime Minister’s Office made the decision after inner consultations over the past few days. According to the senior official, the decision was made for Rivlin and Netanyahu not to meet with Carter because of what they viewed as his “anti-Israeli” stance over the last few years.
Specifically the Foreign Ministry recommended Carter not meet with the Israeli leaders due to his stance during the summer war in Gaza in which Carter called for the removal of Hamas from the American State Department’s list of terror organizations.
Israel however did approve Carter’s request to visit Gaza during his visit to Israel.

WH says Netanyahu re-election "undermines the values and democratic ideals that have been important to our democracy"

Almost unbelievable...

Via Weekly Standard:
In a comment unprompted by any question from the media, White House press secretary lashed into some of the rhetoric Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu used in his reelection campaign. The White House even suggested it had hurt Israel’s democracy and America’s relationship with its greatest ally in the Middle East.
“There’s one other thing that I anticipated might come up that I just did want to mention as it relates to the Israeli elections.  Specifically, there has been a lot of coverage in the media about some of the rhetoric that emerged yesterday that was propagated by the Likud Party to encourage turnout of their supporters that sought to, frankly, marginalize Arab-Israeli citizens.  The United States and this administration is deeply concerned by divisive rhetoric that seeks to marginalize Arab-Israeli citizens,” White House press secretary Josh Earnest told the media aboard Air Force One today.
It undermines the values and democratic ideals that have been important to our democracy and an important part of what binds the United States and Israel together...

Report: Obama threatened to shoot down Israeli planes if they attacked Iran...


I would like to say this is unbelievable, but with Obama in the White House, we can't dismiss it.

Via Arutz Sheva:
The Bethlehem-based news agency Ma’an has cited a Kuwaiti newspaper report Saturday, that US President Barack Obama thwarted an Israeli military attack against Iran's nuclear facilities in 2014 by threatening to shoot down Israeli jets before they could reach their targets in Iran.
Following Obama's threat, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu was reportedly forced to abort the planned Iran attack.
According to Al-Jarida, the Netanyahu government took the decision to strike Iran some time in 2014 soon after Israel had discovered the United States and Iran had been involved in secret talks over Iran’s nuclear program and were about to sign an agreement in that regard behind Israel's back.
The report claimed that an unnamed Israeli minister who has good ties with the US administration revealed the attack plan to Secretary of State John Kerry, and that Obama then threatened to shoot down the Israeli jets before they could reach their targets in Iran.
Al-Jarida quoted "well-placed" sources as saying that Netanyahu, along with Minister of Defense Moshe Yaalon, and then-Foreign Minister Avigdor Liberman, had decided to carry out airstrikes against Iran's nuclear program after consultations with top security commanders.

Obama and Kerry snubbing Israeli Prime Minster Benjamin Netanyahu when he comes to Washington, D.C., in March

Obama always hated Israel anyway.

‘What could go wrong ? US Consulate in Jerusalem arming Palestinian guards’

What could go wrong?
(Times of Israel)- The US Consulate in Jerusalem is training a force of 35 Palestinians from East Jerusalem to serve as armed guards, particularly for consular trips to the West Bank’s Area A, which is off-limits to Israelis, it was reported on Wednesday.

The arrangement violates a 2011 agreement between Israel and the consulate, the Hebrew daily Yedioth Ahronoth stated, whereby only IDF combat veterans would be authorized to carry arms as consulate guards. 

“The consulate was authorized to keep roughly 100 handguns for security staff, on condition that they be either American diplomats or Israeli army veterans,” the paper’s Itamar Eichner wrote.
Additionally, Israeli guards at the consulate alleged that the Palestinians were being trained with firearms in Jericho at a Palestinian Preventative Security base and in the United States.

HarperCollins atlas that wiped Israel off the map is pulled...

Now, can we get the person or persons responsible fired?

Via Truth Revolt:
After outrage over a HarperCollins atlas designed for schools in the Middle East that literally wiped Israel from the map, the publisher announced Wednesday that it has removed the atlas from “sale in all territories” and apologized for “any offense it caused.”
The atlas, which has been on sale for months, was developed to satisfy “local preferences” of English-speaking schools in the Muslim-majority Gulf. HarperCollins promoted the atlas as a tool to provide children “in-depth coverage of the region and its issues” and help them better understand the “relationship between the social and physical environment, the region’s challenges [and] its socio-economic development.”
“Nice goals,” the Washington Post quips, “But there’s one problem: Israel is missing. There’s Syria. There’s Jordan. There’s Gaza. But no mention of Israel.”

Palestinian Terrorist slams car into crowd killing a baby. AP headline, "“Israeli Police Shoot Man”…

This kind of bias by the mainstream media is undermining democracy and freedom around the world. Democracy and belief in freedom depend on an informed electorate, not an electorate fed propaganda and bullsh*t.

AP has now changed the headline and story, but you can see the original in the html link. http://news.yahoo.com/israeli-police-shoot-man-east-jerusalem-153643679.html?soc_src=copy

I can't find any comment at the link about why the story and headline were altered.

Report: Iran claims it shot down Israeli spy drone over Natanz uranium enrichment site

 IDF Spokesman's Unit



It's obvious Barack Obama and the Europeans aren't going to stop Iran from getting nuclear weapons. Is Israel preparing to go it alone? 


Via Arutz Sheva:
Iran's elite Revolutionary Guard said it has brought down an Israeli stealth drone above the Natanz uranium enrichment site in the center of the country.
"A spy drone of the Zionist regime (Israel) was brought down by a missile... This stealth drone was trying to approach the Natanz nuclear zone," the corps said in a statement on its official website sepahnews.com.
This act demonstrates a new adventurism by the Zionist regime... The Revolutionary Guard and the other armed forces reserve the right to respond to this act," the statement added.
An Israeli spokesman told AFP in Jerusalem on Sunday that the military does "not address foreign media reports".
Natanz is Iran's main uranium enrichment site, housing more than 16,000 centrifuges. Around 3,000 more are at the Fordow plant, buried inside a mountain and hard to destroy.

Guess who just executed 18 Palestinians...

It wasn't Israel. They are more civilized than that. It was Hamas!

Via Fox News:
Hamas carried out a deadly purge of suspected informants in Gaza, killing as many as 18 people suspected of providing information to the Israel Defense Forces as fighting flared anew following the collapse of Egyptian-brokered cease-fire talks.
Masked gunmen killed seven suspected informants for Israel near a Gaza City mosque as worshippers were ending midday prayers on Friday, according to a witness and Hamas media. Earlier in the day, Hamas killed 11 men by firing squad in Gaza City’s police headquarters, according to the Hamas-run Al Rai website.
Two of those killed were women, according to the Palestinian Center for Human Rights, which called for an immediate halt to what it said were “extra-judicial executions.”
Hamas media portrayed the killings as the beginning of a new crackdown, under the rallying cry of “choking the necks of the collaborators.” The killings, which took place near the al-Omari Mosque in downtown Gaza, occurred a day after Israel killed three top Hamas military commanders in an airstrike on a house in southern Gaza.
A witness says masked gunmen lined up the seven men in a side street and opened fire on them. He spoke on condition of anonymity, fearing for his own safety.

Britain threatens to cut off weapons exports to Israel if current truce breaks down...

So, if Hamas fires more rockets, Israel is supposed to turn the other cheek?  Israel should cancel the weaposn orders and order from a country more politically stable.
LONDON (Reuters) – Britain said on Tuesday it would suspend 12 licenses to export military items to Israel, including tank, aircraft and radar parts, if hostilities with Hamas in Gaza resumed, citing concerns the exports may be used to breach international laws.
Britain said last week it was reviewing all arms export licenses to Israel after fierce fighting which has resulted in heavy civilian casualties in the Palestinian enclave of Gaza.
That review concluded on Tuesday that 12 licenses would be temporarily suspended pending further investigation if the current truce breaks down and heavy fighting resumes.
“The UK government has not been able to clarify if the export license criteria are being met,” Business Secretary Vince Cable said in a statement.
“In light of that uncertainty, we have taken the decision to suspend these existing export licenses in the event of a resumption of significant hostilities.”
Israel says its operation in Gaza is self-defense, aimed at stopping rockets being fired from the enclave by Islamist militants.
