SUPPORT DEMOCRACY OVER TYRANNY & TERRORISM
Israel is a front line in the Islamo-fascist global war against freedom


99.5% of U.S. Congress Commends Israeli Democracy

Arab and Iranian dictators oppress their subjects, sponsor half of the world’s major terror groups and imperil Israel, the Middle East’s sole democracy. 360 million people in Arab states and Iran are entitled to the same freedom and prosperity enjoyed by Europeans, Americans and Israelis.

The Middle East includes 7 out of 19 of the most repressive regimes in the world and their weapons of mass destruction. It is also the hotbed of Jihad (Holy War), an ideology of world domination. The scourge of international terrorism now reaches far beyond the United States and Israel. Half of the world’s major terror groups are Arab and Iranian. 5 out of the world's 7 state-sponsors of terrorism are Arab and Iranian.

In Arab and Iranian dictators' propaganda there is almost no problem that is not caused by the existence of Israel, the Middle East’s sole democracy. Most of the Arab and Muslim states do not recognize Israel's right to exist.

The freest Arabs and Muslims in the Middle East live in Israel. The Israeli government is the only one in the Middle East that is elected by free citizens -- including Arabs and Muslims.

Israel is a free, Western country, which recognizes the individual rights of its citizens (such as their right to liberty and freedom of speech). It uses military force only in self-defense. The enemies of Israel, by contrast, are state sponsored terrorist organizations and dictatorships. They do not recognize the individual rights of their own subjects, much less those of the citizens of Israel. They initiate force indiscriminately in order to retain and expand their power.

Israel's achievements are vast and have no parallel in any other country of comparable size or age. They have been reached against an unremitting threat of violence, war, terror and delegitimation that might have defeated any lesser people. In almost every sphere – economic development, technology, integration of immigrants and the maintenance of democracy – Israel should today be internationally heralded as a model for others to emulate.

Above all, Israel has pursued peace. In a mere 10 years it made a cognitive leap for which it would be hard to find a precedent. The "peace process" whose main watchword is "territories for peace", involves a paradox whereby a minuscule democracy is being forced to provide its totalitarian enemies - scores of times its size - the only thing it lacks: territory. In exchange, the surrounding tyrannies are being asked to provide the one and only thing that they lack: peace. In 1990 Arafat's PLO was a proscribed terrorist organization. By 2000 the Israeli prime minister had offered a Palestinian state in the whole of Gaza and 97 per cent of the West Bank, with east Jerusalem as its capital. Students of international politics hail the European Union as a triumph of peace over war. How many are aware that the attitudinal changes that took France and Germany centuries, were achieved in Israel in a single decade?

The case for Israel should be apparent even to thoroughgoing supporters of the Palestinians. Who else has offered them a genuine future? Egypt? Jordan? Syria? Lebanon? The Gulf States? It takes only a cursory glance at the history of the Middle East to realize that for the most part, neighboring dictatorships have ruthlessly exploited the Palestinians for their own ends with callous indifference to the consequences. Israel, alone in the Middle East, has attempted to construct, with and for the Palestinians, a viable and peaceful future.

Israel's strategy of winning Palestinian hearts and minds failed because Israeli carrots could never overcome the intimidation applied by Palestinian terrorist regime's sticks.

Fundamentally, Israel is the target of these terrorist organizations and despotic regimes precisely because of its virtues:

Oasis of freedom in a desert of Arab and Iranian tyranny
Oasis of independent judiciary in a desert of Arab and Iranian arbitrariness
Oasis of women rights in a desert of Arab and Iranian women discrimination



JIHAD (HOLY WAR TO IMPOSE GLOBAL TOTALITARIAN MUSLIM RULE)
AGAINST CHRISTIANS, HINDUS, JEWS, BUDDHISTS, ANIMISTS AND ALL OTHER "INFIDELS"

WEAPONS OF MASS DESTRUCTION (WMD)

The most glaring security dangers facing humanity are the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, the increasing technical competence of groups ideologically driven to engage in mass murder, and the prevalence of state support for such groups

The Saharawi Arab Republic, formerly the Spanish colony West Sahara, has been occupied by Arab Morroco for decades - its territory the size of the United Kingdom, 13 times bigger than Israel and more than 45 times as big as the West Bank.

The Saharawi Arabs have lived in refugee camps for twenty years in the most inhospitable desert, and are most probably the poorest people on earth. In comparison to the average West Sahara Arabs, the poorest of the West Bank Arabs live like kings. Apparently since the Moroccans are Muslim Arabs, and not Jews, the Arab League, the United Nations, Human Rights Organizations, the media etc. are not bothered too much by the fact that Arab West Sahara is occupied and that for decades most Saharawis have been living in squalor and poverty in the world's worst refugee camps.

PALESTINIAN AUTONOMY
RULED BY ISLAMIST TERRORIST HAMAS, ARAB LEAGUE MEMBER
Every Palestinian "political party" of note - Hamas, Fatah and PFLP - operates an "army" listed as terrorist by the US and EU. The 2006 "democratic election" is a reality check into the nature of Palestinian society: Hamas got a clear majority (74) in the 132-seat Palestinian Legislative Council, Fatah about a third (45), PFLP 3 and others 1-2.

"Palestine is part of the Arab Homeland. State of Palestine shall abide by the charter of the League of Arab States. The Palestinian people is part of the Arab and Islamic nations. ... Islam shall be the official religion in Palestine. … The principles of Islamic Shari’a shall be a major source of legislation." (Draft of Palestinian Constitution - c. 1, art. 2, 5, 7, Palestinian National Authority official website, Sep 14, 2005)

Half of the world's major Foreign Terrorist Organizations as designated by the European Union and the U.S. Department of State are Palestinian or have a Palestinian agenda

Palestinian despot Arafat in Forbes Report "The World's Richest People"

The mere existence of the Palestinian Authority is the result of Israel being the only power in history to have granted autonomy to the Palestinians. "Palestine" is the name of a geographical area. Never in history existed a state named Palestine. When the Arabs ruled the area - as a result of their imperial conquests from the 7th through the 9th century C.E. - it was out of their two Caliphal capitals, Damascus and Baghdad. Neither Arab Jordan or Egypt consented to Palestinian autonomy when the disputed territories - West Bank and the Gaza Strip - were under their occupation (from 1948-1967). Today Arab League asserts right to 22nd Arab state, 2nd one in historic Palestine. In 1995 and 1997, Israel relinquished control over virtually all of the West Bank’s and Gaza Strip's Palestinian residents. Since that time, nearly 60 percent of them –in main cities– have lived entirely under the Palestinian Autority's jurisdiction. Another 40 percent live where the Palestinian Authority exercises civil authority but, in line with the Oslo accords, Israel has maintained "overriding responsibility for security".

Since 1993 various Israel-Palestinians peace agreements: all collapsed. For 56 years, every time the Palestinians were offered the possibility of a state side by side with Israel, they chose rejection and violence. Israel's strategy of winning Palestinian hearts and minds failed because Israeli carrots could never overcome the intimidation applied by Palestinian terrorist regime's sticks.

Palestinians received the largest amount of money per capita in the history of foreign aid but this was still not enough to balance the budget. End sleaze or lose aid, Arafat told by World Bank

Small scale conflict: under two Palestinians killed per day since Sep 30, 2000. The claims regarding the number of Palestinian casualties and their causes are not subject to independent verification, and there are documented examples where fictitious funerals have been held. In any case, many times more Palestinians were killed while warring with Arab regimes like Jordan and Lebanon than in their war against Israel.

23 ARAB & IRANIAN TYRANNIES
Arab Despots Star in Forbes Report 2003 "The World's Richest People"
7 out of the the world's 19 most repressive regimes are Arab
5 out of the world's 7 state sponsors of terrorism are Arab states and Iran

Arab and Iranian dictators' propaganda is insidious: sponsors of terrorism establish human rights organizations, victims are turned into aggressors and savages, barbarians are painted as victims, imperialists and warmongers are declared moderates, defense is aggression, offense is defense, democrats are denounced as imperialists, dictators are lauded as democrats, and there are no problems that could not be resolved through the destruction of Israel, the Middle East’s sole democracy.

Arab League asserts right to 22nd Arab state, 2nd one in Palestine.
In 1964, the Arab League founded the Palestinian Liberation Organization (PLO) whose raison d’etre was to destroy Israel, three years before the West Bank and Gaza Strip came under Israeli control.
