WHO CAN YOU REALLY COUNT ON TO TELL IT LIKE IT REALLY IS THEN AND NOW?
MER FlashBacks to September 1997:
TERRORISM AND ACCOUNTABILITY
"One million Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail."
Rabbi Perin - Eulogy for Baruch
Goldstein in Hebron in 1994
MER Editorial - Washington - 9/27/97:
The worst massacres in the recent history of the Middle East have not been
perpetrated by Arabs, but rather by Israelis. This simple fact is often overlooked in
the Western media. In 1982 thousands of Palestinian refugees were slaughtered in the
refugee camps of Sabra and Shatilla -- this on top of the estimated 20,000+ Lebanese
and Palestinian civilians killed during Israel's barbarous war on Lebanon.
The responsible person was Ariel Sharon, now one of the senior leaders of the
Government of Israel. The rise of Hezbollah was a direct result of Israel's brutal
devastation of Lebanon, killing of tens of thousands of innocent civilians, attempt to
install a puppet government in Beirut, and direct military occupation of the southern
area of the country.
No one was held responsible, no apologies have been made, no compensation has
been paid. Just last year at Qana, Lebanon, Israel purposefully massacred over a
hundred civilians even though they had specifically fled to a camp under U.N.
protection. Shimon Peres, Israeli Prime Minister at the time, then repeatedly lied and
covered up the atrocity until evidence (of which the Israelis were not aware) surfaced.
No one was held responsible, no apologies have been made, no compensation has
been paid. Israeli "death squads" have been operating in the occupied territories for
years. Indeed, the brutal and unprecedented Israeli military occupation of large parts
of historic Palestine is itself a form of organized State-sponsored terrorism.
And just a few years ago, in 1994, Baruch Goldstein, in Israeli army uniform,
massacred Arab worshipers at the Tomb of Abraham in occupied Hebron. No one was held
responsible, no apologies have been made, no compensation has been paid and the
meshugana Rabbis of Hebron remain free, guns in hand.
And by the way, there was no Hamas, and their were no suicide bombers, in
occupied Palestine until recent years after a generation of Israeli occupation and
repression, torture and systematic terror. MAB
THE ARABS REGIMES -- OFF TO GREET SHARON IN DOHA
MEANWHILE, SHARON MASTERMINDS ISRAELI EXPANSION PLANS
MER - Washington - 9/30/97: Even more than Netanyahu, the hand of Ariel Sharon
is firmly behind Israeli policies, most especially the settlement expansion policies.
Yet even so -- cajoled and threatened by the United States -- the Arab client-regimes
are heading to the fourth U.S.-Israel sponsored "economic summit" in a few weeks, this
one in Doha.
This very important and very symbolic matter was discussed in the previous MER a few
days ago. The concluding paragraph of the article read: "Meanwhile, adding insult to
injury, none other than Ariel Sharon will be heading up Israel's delegation if Doha
takes place. Sharon -- the war criminal of Sabra and Shatilla. Sharon -- one of
Israel's greatest thugs and Palestinian killers. Sharon -- the only senior Israeli
official who commandered a house in the Muslim quarter of Old Jerusalem on top of
which he prominently flies the Israeli flag and a Menorah for all to see (all guarded
24-hours daily by Israeli troops of course).
Sharon -- the Minister in charge of building still more Israeli settlements to
permanently disinfranchise and ghettoize the Palestinians." The following additional
information about Sharon, published in Hebrew in the Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz, has
now come to our attention:
SHARON PLAN TO REINFORCE GREEN LINE APPROVED
"A plan to establish a chain of 17 new settlements between Jerusalem and the
southern Mount Hebron area just inside the Green Line has been approved by Interior
Minister Eli Suissa and passed on to the planning units in his ministry.
"The plan was initiated by National Infrastructure Minister Ariel Sharon. The new
settlements are intended as the final stage of the plan formulated by Sharon in the
1980s, when he served as housing minister, to ensure continuous Jewish settlement
along the entire boundary line of the West Bank.
"Sharon's spokesman, Ra'anan Gissin, said the plan would 'protect the land from being
taken over by Palestinians and Bedouin.' Gissin said Israel must 'seize the land and
create facts on the ground' before the final status negotiations.
"'It's a war,' Gissin stated. He said economic problems and a sense of insecurity
caused by agricultural thefts in the area where the new settlements are planned had
driven out many residents in recent years.
"At present, he said, there are only about 5,000 residents there, and 26,000 dunams
(6,500 acres) of state land had been abandoned. 'It is urgent to double the number of
residents,' said Gissin.
"Sources in the Israel Lands Administration (ILA) said that a Jewish settlement will
be established 'opposite every Palestinian village that lies close to the Green Line,
and whose residents are trying to push the Green Line westward.'
"The plan has aroused opposition from both left and right. Spokesmen for left-wing
parties said that Sharon wants to push the border between Israel and a future
Palestinian state eastward.
"They claim that the new chain of settlements will stifle the West Bank and prevent
the creation of the 'safe passage' route between the West Bank and Gaza which is
stipulated under the Oslo accords..." {HAARETZ - 9/15}
