Arab Spring or Israel Spring?

As we’re dealing with the situation in the Arab world, you can’t fail to think what is Israel busy doing. Israel’s hands are tied with Hamas. Israel has declared a silent war on Hamas. This silent war is summarized in this Washington Post Article. (Click Here for the Article).
The questions that jumps out is “why now”? Things are flaring up in Gaza and southern Part of Israel. However, why has Israel waited this long to go into action? Israel has always been one step of its surrounding threats and it is mere negligence if Israel just ignored the problem with Hamas. The answer lies within several changes in the region.
1. The first change is the most obvious one. The Arab Spring is changing the complete picture for the region. As much as a lot of Terrorist Apologists are celebrating the events in the Arab world and calling it a slap in the face for Israel, Israel is quietly taking advantage of these events. This goes to prove the world that the Arab world and Arab government are incredibly unstable and unpredictable. Therefore, any peace treaty with these countries would simply prove to be nothing but a joke. The perfect example is Egypt. Even though EU and other Western countries who tend to be huge critic of Israeli policies are silent about what is happening in those Arab countries, but they are observing what is taking place in those countries. They are getting a sense of understanding with regards to the type of threat that Israel is surrounded with. At the same time, they are discovering about the Arab hypocrisy. All these Arab countries cried their eyes out for the Palestinian. They would be up in the arms in the UN if a single terrorist would be killed in Gaza strip. Yet, they are brutally murdering their own citizens with a straight face. Perfect example is Syria. Therefore, the critics of Israel cannot really pick on Israel if Israel is taking steps to protect herself. It is the best time for Israel to go into action and neutralize her enemies who are sworn to harm Israel’s citizens. The notion of “Israel has the right to protect her citizens” is making a lot of sense to those Western countries.
2. The Goldstone report was retracted by the Goldstone. I do not know what changed his mind or how did it change, but it was the biggest surprise of the year. I really did not see that happening and if you would have told me last year that this damaging and inaccurate report would be retracted by Goldstone himself, I would have said “you are being delusional.” Well, it happened and its effect, although minimal, allows Israel to point out that these fact finding groups are completely incompetent with frivolous agendas that does not involve truth. Goldstone’s retraction will not change anything for Israel. The funniest part is that the U.N has said that they have no intention of discrediting the Goldstone report even though its author has said it is inaccurate and defective and should not be used. This is U.N. for you. Israel will have to face the U.N. hypocrisy, however now the game has changed. Israel does not need to redeem herself to these Arab Propaganda Mouth Pieces (a.k.a. UN Resolutions) simply because they are losing accuracy day by day. It gives Israel a free hand to simply chase after these Hamas terrorist around the globe.
Israel has its work cut out for her. The war with Hamas is not something that is won overnight. This is the Middle East politics. Great majority of Israelis have the same mindset that this is a long war. With exception of bunch of Leftist Groups in Israel or U.S who are losing credibility on hourly basis, Israeli citizens are behind their government in terms of a Hamas showdown. Hamas on the other hand does not have such a blessing. There is growing discomfort with Hamas as a government due to the fact that they failed to deliver what they promised. Hamas is finding new friends in Egypt and Egyptian government. However, it would not be enough to redeem its failures in Gaza Strip. Palestinians in Gaza Strip are not dumb and as much as they love to hate Israel for their problems and shortcomings as a nation, they can still feel the pain that Hamas is inflicting upon them through disastrous and self-serving policies. This is exactly why we see Hamas is not interested in any sort of direct conflict with Israel at this point. There are also rumors floating around with regards to rift between the Political and Military wings of this terrorist organization. This is not good news for Hamas.
Now let’s put the whole picture together. The Arab Spring is consuming most of World’s attention. U.N and other NGO’s credibility took a hard hit with regards to Goldstone retractions, plus the ruthlessness of Arab Government and their stunning hypocrisy, add that to growing dissatisfaction of Gaza’s residence with Hamas, and this is one opportunity for Israel to go into a silence war with Hamas. Israel might or might not engage in military actions against Hamas which might involve ground forces, however at this point Israel has the upper hand. I wonder: should we call it “Arab Spring” or “Israel Spring”?

Unbelievable Story of a Mother who Lost a Son in Gaza

This is a true story that is going around in Israel. It blew my mind. So I am going to use such an inspiring story to make my come back to the blog world.

Dvir Aminolav was the first Israeli soldier killed in the 2008 Gaza War. His mother Dalya missed Dvir, terribly. One night before she went to bed, she said in a loud voice: "G-d, give me a sign, give me a hug from Dvir so that I will know that his death had some meaning."

That week her daughter asked her to accompany her to a musical performance at The International Crafts Festival in Jerusalem. Dalya, feeling quite depressed, did not want to go to the concert, but she didn't want to disappoint her daughter either, and agreed to go halfheartedly. The concert was a bit delayed. A two-year-old boy began wandering through the stands. He walked up to Dalya's seat and touched her on the shoulder. A preschool teacher, Dalya turned around, saw the boy and smiled warmly.

"What's your name?" Dalya asked.

"Eshel," the boy replied.

"That's a nice name. Do you want to be my friend, Eshel?" The boy nodded in reply and sat down next to Dalya.

Eshel's parents were sitting two rows above. Concerned their little boy was bothering Dalya, they asked him to come back up. But Dalya insisted that everything was fine.

"I have a brother named Dvir," two-year-old Eshel chimed in, as only little children can. Dalya was shocked to hear the unusual name of her beloved son, and walked up the two rows to where Eshel's parents were sitting. She saw a baby in his carriage, and apologizing, she asked, "If you don't mind me asking, how old is your baby and when was he born?"

The baby's mother replied, "He was born right after the war in Gaza."

Dalya swallowed hard. "Please tell me, why did you choose to name him Dvir?"

Baby Dvir's mother began to explain. "When I was at the end of my pregnancy, the doctors suspected the fetus may have a very serious birth defect. Since it was the end of the pregnancy, there was little the doctors could do and I just had to wait and see how things would turn out.

When I went home that night, the news reported that the first casualty in the war was a soldier named Dvir. I was so saddened by this news that I decided to make a deal with G-d. 'If you give me a healthy son,' I said in my prayer, 'I promise to name him Dvir, in memory of the soldier that was killed.'"

Dalya, the mother of Dvir, stood with her mouth open. She tried to speak but she couldn't. After a long silence, she said quietly, "I am Dvir's mother."

The young parents didn't believe her. She repeated, "Yes, it's true. I am Dvir's mother. My name is Dalya Aminalov, from Pisgat Zeev."

With a sudden inspiration, Baby Dvir's mother handed Dalya the baby and said, "Dvir wants to give you a hug."

Dalya held the little baby boy in her arms and looked into his angelic face. The emotion she felt at that moment was overwhelming. She had asked for a hug from Dvir - and she could truly feel his warm and loving embrace from the World of Truth.

Thank you Meir for the story ;)

Human Rights Groups Frivolous Claim

After a long delay, I am back. I have been incredibly busy. However things have been great. It’s been a tough life, but the accomplishments are what make the hardship sweet. Anyways, I am coming back to blogging after four months and I am coming back with a video to refute Human Rights Watch and their report about IDF’s alleged war crime. Let’s take a look at one of their claims of alleged war crimes.
Human Rights groups have been documenting fabricating stories from sources connected to Hamas. They claimed that IDF soldiers opened fire on civilians despite the fact that they were showing white flags. IDF conducted investigation and it became obvious that those claims are frivolous. At the same time, Human Rights groups whom by the way get massive donations from Saudi Arabia and they presented claims of heavily criticizing Israel during Operation Cast Lead and other operations in order to collect those donations, forgot the fact that Israel has been filming a lot of the missions just for this reason.
This video I have posted shows exactly why Human Rights groups are losing legitimacy and they are nothing but empty think tanks for the left and have become terrorist mouth piece and apologists for the killers. This video also proves that Hamas has been using human shields and yes Human Right Groups forgot to mention it.

OPERATION CAST LEAD

Operation Cast Lead and its Humiliation for Hamas

As we’re finalizing the closing chapter of Operation Cast Lead, every side is trying to figure out what just happened and what is going to happen in future. Hamas was looking for a way to upgrade its respect around the globe and maybe promote its reputation to Hizbollah’s Level. They were itching for an Israeli incursion into Gaza so that they could create a second Lebanon for IDF. After Lebanon 06, IDF had lost its deterrence in the Arab world especially in Gaza. Hamas was looking for an opportunity to repeat what Hizbollah had done in South Lebanon. On the other hand, Iran and their agents in the region were pushing Hamas into this conflict. Iran had greatly benefited from Lebanon and its support for Hizbollah. Iran needed to drag Israel into a bloody conflict to distract her from attacking Iran’s nuclear facility during the transition of U.S administrations. Therefore, they supplied Hamas with everything they could possibly find to prepare them to attack Israel. Hamas also thought that they are going to teach Israel a new lesson. They dug tunnels just like Hizbollah had done; they had used schools and mosques as weapon depot, and they were just waiting for Israelis to come. So when the ceasefire came to an end by early December, they were confident enough that they could confront Israel militarily. They also had received green light from their master (aka Iran) to start a confrontation. So with full confident in their capabilities, even before the ceasefire come to an end, they alleged their readiness to confront Israel and resumed their attacks against Israeli civilians in the south. However, they had miscalculated one thing. Just like Hamas who was preparing for a war, Israel was watching Hamas’s every move. Not even that, Israel had prepared its special units and trained them to confront Hamas in Gaza and urban areas. Israel had learned necessary lessons from Lebanon to confront Hamas in Gaza. Basically, Israel has Hizbollah to thank for its victory in Gaza. Israel inflicted severe damages through air within hours of the start of conflict. Israel was patient in its planning and she used diligence to conduct its operations in Gaza. IDF was very organized in going into Gaza. Israel kept clear channel of communication between commanders unlike Lebanon that units were all confused and nobody knew what to do. A perfect example of how much damage Israe caused Hamas is this: according to Persian Israel Radio based in Jerusalem, Iran had trained about 100 Hamas fighters in Iran and they had snuck back into Gaza to prepare Hamas to confront Israel. These fighters had received special training with regard to different type of conducting terrorist attacks or weapon trainings. Israel chased and killed all 100 of these fighters. In terms of military objectives, Israel showed its superiority in terms of combat and urban fighting. Hamas had booby trapped every inch of Gaza. Hamas looked miserable in the battles. Israel lost 13 soldiers during this whole operation; 5-7 of them were caused by friendly fire. That is a total embarrassment for Hamas. How misrule and humiliated should you be that another country has to declare victory for you? Hamas totally miscalculated its objectives and forgot that they are not Hizbollah and Israel was very prepared to confront them.

Another issue that arised as a result of this war was the drift that created between commanders in Gaza and Syria. Khaled Mashal was sitting in his comfortable house in Syria ordering these commanders to keep fighting. He was benefiting from all the civilians who were dying in the fighting. However, Hamas commanders kept saying that they were ready for any ceasefire and Hamas commanders in Syria kept rejecting it. This showed the level of inhumanity and lack of respect for human life in part of Hamas commanders in Syria. They did not even value the lives of their own men; would you imagine what they would do to Israelis if they ever get a chance? They could not care less that their fighters did not stand a chance confronting IDF and they were just benefiting from high civilian casualties.

Another issue that is important to notice is remember in Lebanon 06 how the Arab protesters were actually happy the war was happening and they were proud of Hizbollah. AngryArab blogger was celebrating the war and congratulating Hizbollah on their victory and their actions toward Israeli citizens. They were not sad even a bit that there was a war happening simply because Israel was losing civilians; not even that, they were congratulating Hizbollah for killing and terrorizing Israeli citizens through their bombardment of civilians cities. They were so proud of their war and they were not hiding it. However, in this war, since Hamas was being humiliated, they were furious. Not even that they were furious, they resorted to Anti-Semitic tactic to send their messages to the world. Their protests were filled with absolute hate. They were calling themselves protesting for peace and for peaceful purposes. What happened? How come last time that they had achieved a bit of success, they were not protesting for peace or ceasefire, but out of the sudden they decided to protest for peace? Either way, they were humiliated just like Hamas because this time they portrayed their anger through violence and they showed their true barbaric natures.

At the end, Operation Cast Lead was a total success for IDF. Unfortunately there were many civilian casualties, however the blame does not rest on Israel, Israel was targeting what any other country would target which is military targets. Israel went after targets that Hamas had produced by using them for military objectives such as flying missiles toward Israel. This time, there are extensive video library as to what Israel targeted and the extend Israel went through to defend civilian lives in the conflict. The losers were not Hamas, the losers were Palestinian population in the areas who had to suffer and they will suffer in future. Not that they care, in their mind, it is Israel’s fault no matter what happens. However, Hamas will restore its military capability within a year or two, but until then, at least there will be some quiet time for the both side. All together, Israel restored its deterrence that she had lost because her failures in Lebanon. Now Hizbollah is on notice that Israel is ready to confront them, and if one day Hizbollah decides to send them an invitation, IDF is going to deliver them a hefty and destructive gift.

Kol Hakavod IDF!

Israel Divert Missiles to Save Civilian Lives

This is amazing and a slap in the face of those who say Israel does not value civilian lives or purposely targeting civilians. This shows a complete fabrication of such stories and the best proof that Palestinian Groups such as Hamas are solely responsible for civilian deaths in those areas due to the fact that these groups use them as a human shield. I applaud Israeli Air force and their morals. I wonder how many Air-Forces around the world would do such a thing. Now compare it to Hamas and Palestinian Cause supporters who purposely target civilians to send their hateful message. Do you see a difference?

Anti-Aircraft in a Mosque

Israel is embarrassing Hamas time after time. This time, Israel is doing an amazing job releasing videos showing extend of Hamas’s War Crime and utilizing civilian infrastructure for military purposes. I wonder why the members of “religion of peace” are so angry now. I guess this Anti-Aircraft and many missiles and mortars were taking a refuge in that center for “religion of peace” to escape Israeli ruthless aggression against them. Good job IDF and keep up the good work.


On a different development, Red Cross finally comes to its senses.

Palestinian Racism is Coming Out

As we see the protests happening around the world, you can’t fail to see the level barbarism this fraudulent cause of Palestinians are putting forth. I went to an Israeli rally and I did even see a single sign that was remotely racist or against Palestinians. They were protesting against Hamas, and you could not even see a word such as Palestinians anywhere. There was no flag burning, no calling for wiping off anybody, and they only protested against Hamas actions. However, take a good look at Palestinian protests. “[d]eath to Juice”, “Israel should be wiped off”, and "Jews are terrorists" signs are everywhere. By the way, for the Americans who are watching from the side lines, look at the Palestinian protests, you will not see a single American flag. I have also included a video of people who belong to “religion of peace” and I ask, ARE THESE SUB-HUMANS REALLY PEACEFUL IN THIS VIDEO? They are dancing and screaming “la elaha elal lah” and stumping on Israeli flags, and yet they claim to be peaceful? What is peaceful about them? You could see the same act that you see in beheading videos and now they are walking around openly saying “death to Jews”. Where is NY Times to document these protests, where is NY Times to document this level of racism? This is perfect proof Israel is not dealing with civilized community or people or culture. She is fighting barbarians like that who are only defrauding the world in a global scale and utilizing the same old global Anti-Semitism to buy support for their fraudulent cause. Israel is fighting the true fascists of our time, the ones who even sided with Hitler during WWII. Make no mistake, if it comes down to it, Palestinian will not only repeat Holocaust against Jews, they will take it to a different level in terms of barbaric ways they will achieve their goals. These protests and how barbaric they turn every time Pro-Palestinians protests are the significance of the fact that Palestinians do not want peace, they just want to destroy Israel and throw Jews in to the sea.



Here is the link to more pictures and more racism for those who are interested.

Videos from Operation Cast Lead

Terrorist apologist’s websites are coming up with posts after posts with propaganda articles. However the amazing part is that they are only articles. They are only in form of opinion or unsubstantiated report or some propaganda piece produced by terrorists. Israel on the other hand is releasing video after video embarrassing Hamas. Operation Cast Lead is going pretty good, IDF’s casualties are relatively low and they are inflicting painful damages on Hamas. Israel is providing factual proof regarding Hamas’s War Crimes. These videos are perfect proof of how Hamas is hiding behind civilians. The latest one is this video about Hamas using a school and a zoo and they are booby trapping this school. As we know Schools and Zoos are considered civilian infrastructure and utilizing such facilities to achieve military purposes is considered the violation of Protocol I which is a WAR CRIME. Of course U.N. does not even bother criticizing such acts. Here is the video:

Core of Palestinian Cause and Supporters!

This is for those who say Anti-Zionism has nothing to do with Anti-Semitism. Wow! This is Palestinian Cause for you. It’s just that this time they said what they really think. First, they openly denied Holocaust, and then they tried to use Holocaust for their own benefit by calling Jews Nazis. Check out the scene on 3:05 on the video. It will Shock you. What is amazing about this video is it is exactly what is wrong with Middle East. I love the fact that how they guy is preaching the "religion of peace" and then listen to the end: they are going to have no choice but to accept it. Doesn’t that sound forceful a bit? And then the next scene, the supporters of such “religion of peace” charge the Israeli supporters and try to intimidate them instead of protesting. They think they more you intimidate, the more you get message crossed. It shows exactly what Israel has to deal with in that region. Except Israel does not stand back and be scared and say: “they are so violent”. Instead they fight back and stand up for their existence. Otherwise, as that girl said it, they would send “back to ovens” by people like her. Watch the video and be prepared to be disgusted by absolute stupidity, barbarism, and idiocy



This video seems a lot similar to the protests in Berkeley against Israel.

Interesting Article of the Day!

Today as I started new semester, I started reading news. I was looking for any excuse to write another article about the Gaza operations. However, I don’t know why nothing jumped out except this article I read at Haaretz. The title said that Sarkozy said, “Gaza Operation does not Strengthen Abbas.” And the first reaction I got was, who gives a F about whether Abbas is strengthened or weakened when Israel’s southern cities are being bombarded on daily bases? Jesus man, are European this stupid, naïve, or whitewashed that they think a country would put the safety and security of its citizens ahead of some corrupt leader of the another entity who are calling for your destruction. The only difference between Fatah and Hamas is Fatah is a bit less extremists, but they are still very corrupt and violent. Sarkozy should come with much better incentive for Israel to end its battles against Hamas in Gaza strip.
Here is the link.

This is most likely the last post of 2008. This is also the 150th post of the blog. I really don’t know what to write about or what is happening in Gaza. I do not even want to start saying who is to blame and why is this happening. I am not even going to touch on pictures that are being staged by Palestinians to defraud the international community. All I am going to do is simply post videos from the battlefield and show you the precision of Israeli targets.
