The Islamic System is an Apartheid System

The Western Left and Mohammedans in general have gone to great lengths to equate Israel’s political system to the former racial Apartheid State of White South Africa.

South Africa’s Apartheid was a racial policy in which Whites by law were a superior race and non-whites (mostly indigenous Black Africans) were inferior second class citizens with little to zero civil rights. The Africans (as opposed to the Afrikaners) were the huge majority of the population whose lives were exploited for labor and segregated from the White-Afrikaner populations that enjoyed the primary perks that the Apartheid system provided them.

To accuse the Zionist State of Israel of Apartheid is simply moronic. Within the borders of Israel non-Jewish (Arab) citizens have full rights as citizens even though there is Jewish discrimination against Arab citizens. Arab citizens of Israel have full rights to vote, use mass transportation, and receive medical care and so forth. Arabs and Jews are not prohibited from the same public buildings such as restaurants or water fountains. The discrimination Arab-Israeli citizens’ experience has more to do with individuals not offering rent to Arabs (although a large element of Arabs do rent in predominantly Jewish areas). A loan may be turned down to an Arab-Israeli. Certainly racial profiling is involved by government police forces and the Israeli military in law enforcement and National Security.

It may sound deplorable but I find it understandable there is a large amount of distrust for Arab-Israeli citizens. Can you say, “Islamic terrorism?” Jewish businesses, men, women and children are often the target of Islamic terrorist homicidal attacks. There is the maiming of Jews and foreign tourists. Under the circumstances the state of civil siege Jews receive in Israel I am frankly surprised that Apartheid or repressive actions are not prevalent inside Israel.

The lands conquered as a result of the self-defense from Arab invasions should not be considered occupied as much as repayment for reparations for winning wars of Arab aggression. After all, the 1947 partition plan of the British Mandate of Palestine was to create a Jewish State and an Arab State side-by-side. Multiple Muslim supremacist and Arab nationalist nations could not stand to have Jews return to their homeland in which Muslims conquered in the 700’s AD hence their invasion. The land that was to be the Arab State was gobbled primarily by Jordan (then Transjordan). The Arabs of the former British Palestinian Mandate hence were treated as foreigners by the Hashemite Jordanian Kingdom (Bedouin governing elite) in the land that was designed for their existence in a sovereign nation. Eventually the Arab populace created to be Palestinians by the Arab invaders of 1948 - 67 became a threat to the Hashemite Kingdom and a brief civil war had the Bedouin army expel the PLO terrorist army of Yasser Arafat from Jordan.

Now there was an Apartheid system even before the word came into the existence in the 20th century. The Muslim system of conquest for the chunk of land called Palestine by Romans who evicted a majority of Jews (but not all), was convert to Islam, become an extremely taxed for protection second class citizen not having the same rights as a Muslim OR die.

NOW THAT IS APARTHEID!

Life has improved a little in the Muslim Middle East for non-Muslims (kafir), but not much. Most of that improvement is due to Western scrutiny or the symbiotic relationship of receiving Western wealth for oil.

Today’s Arab-Israeli citizenship is treated way better than ANY non-Muslim living in Muslim dominated land!

Steven Plaut wrote an essay about President Barack Hussein Obama’s little published hypocrisy about Arabs and Jews in Jerusalem. It is entitled, “Obama’s Apartheid Plan For Jerusalem.” That plan includes not allowing Jews to rent, own or build in the Old City part of Jerusalem (aka East Jerusalem). That is a prime indication that BHO intends to force Israel to divide Jerusalem giving the eastern part to the Arabs that call themselves Palestinians.

Obama intends to make the Jews who are living in their own Capital City either to move or become the second class citizen that Mohammedan ideology enforces on non-Muslims. In the case of the Arabs that call themselves Palestinians imagine how that second class citizenship will pan out. KEEP IN MIND the Arab media continuously writes and broadcasts lies and hatred about Jews (There are many YouTube links that may have been yanked).

Do you see the irony that a son of an African Muslim who represents the full circle of rights for Afro-Americans in the USA who have a history of slavery in America is promoting class discrimination?

Obama's Apartheid Plan For Jerusalem

When Barack Obama was elected president, many around the world saw it as the culmination of decades of successful efforts by the American civil rights movement. How ironic, then, that the Obama administration has been conducting a campaign against Jews who wish to live in certain Jerusalem neighborhoods.

The administration has a real problem with Jews seeking to live in two neighborhoods of Jerusalem, the Sheikh Jarrah section, at the foot of Mount Scopus, and the Simon the Righteous neighborhood, located close to the pre-1967 cease-fire lines that once separated Israel from Jordan. The latter is an area whose Jewish roots go back at least two millennia. It was Jewish when the Arabs were still moon worshippers and London just a field of mud.

Even worse, the Obama people are promoting an arbitrary, selective apartheid for Jerusalem directed only against Jews - Arabs, including Arabs from the West Bank, who do not hold Israeli citizenship should be free to live in any predominantly Jewish neighborhood in Jerusalem (as well as in Jewish neighborhoods in Haifa, Tel Aviv, Beersheva and elsewhere).

During World War II, Hitler's main agent for recruiting Muslims to the Nazi banner was Mohammed Amin al-Husseini, the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem. A terrorist leader, he fled Jerusalem when the British attempted to arrest him and spent part of the war as the guest of honor of the Nazis.

The Mufti had owned some property in what is now the East Jerusalem neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah. That property was legally purchased by American businessman Irving Moskowitz, who has owned the property for 20 years now and has a permit to construct an apartment building there in place of the current structure on the site, the Shepherd's Hotel.

The Obama administration is claiming that since the property once belonged to the Grand Mufti and is now in a predominantly Arab neighborhood in East Jerusalem, Israel should freeze and halt all Jewish building there. Evidently, under Obama's new affirmative apartheid policy for Jerusalem, only Arabs should be permitted to build in East Jerusalem.

Now, Obama happens to lives not far from Arlington Cemetery, which sits on land confiscated from Confederate General Robert E. Lee during the Civil War. Israel has at least as much right to use the property taken from the Grand Mufti as the U.S. has to fill up Gen. Lee's plantation with graves.

The idea that Israel should prevent Jews from building in East Jerusalem because Palestinians claim some sort of right to it is as absurd as suggesting that all construction in the District of Columbia be frozen because the British once claimed rights over it.

Obama's people are also up in arms because Israel removed some illegal Arab squatters from land they did not own in Jerusalem's Simon the Righteous neighborhood. This was a Jewish neighborhood until the Jordanians conquered it and evicted all the Jews there in an act of ethnic cleansing. The Israeli Supreme Court has repeatedly ruled that the land in question belongs legally to Jews.

The United Nations Partition Plan of 1947 called for the creation of a Jewish state and an Arab state alongside it. The Arab state never arose because the land that had been set aside for it was gobbled up by the Arab countries that sent their armies to annihilate the Jews.

The UN partition granted Jerusalem's Mount Scopus, with its hospital and university facilities, to Israel. Access by Jews to the area was supposed to be free and unfettered. But Arab terrorist militias placed Mount Scopus under siege and attacked any vehicle trying to reach it. The Mufti himself planned the massacre that followed.

On April 13, 1948, a large convoy consisting mainly of Jewish doctors and nurses tried to reach the hospital on Mount Scopus. It was attacked in Sheikh Jarrah at the mount's foothills. The Jewish vehicles were hit by mines and strafed by gunfire and other weapons.

Some 79 Jews and a British soldier were murdered by the terrorists of Sheikh Jarrah. The bodies were so badly burned that most of them could not be identified. The victims included the head of Hadassah hospital and the head of its medical school.

In recent years, Arab-occupied Sheikh Jarrah has again been the frequent scene of terrorism and violence against Jews. During the recent Gaza campaign, Arab thugs attacks Jews driving or walking near Mount Scopus.

Obama is concerned about the potential for unrest and violence if Jews move to the property they own in Sheikh Jarrah and other Arab neighborhoods in Jerusalem. But of course he would never propose removing the Arab residents of those areas in order to restore tranquility. His Klan Plan consists only of preventing Jews from moving in and ruining the neighborhood.

Jews have exactly as much right to Sheikh Jarrah as the U.S. government had to the Lee Plantation that became Arlington Cemetery. And the rights in both cases were won in exactly the same way - through bloodshed.
