Why Israel
Israel, the only democracy and tolerant society in the Middle
East, is surrounded by Muslim states that have sworn to destroy it and have
conducted a genocidal propaganda campaign against the Jews, promising to
“finish the job that Hitler started.” A global wave of Jew-hatred, fomented by
Muslim propaganda and left-wing anti-Semitism, has spread through Europe and
the United Nations and made Israel Middle
East conflict. In addition to restoring the historical record — a
chronicle of obsessive aggressions first by Arab nationalists and then by
Muslim jihadists, this pamphlet brings the story up to date by showing the
systematic way in which the fanatical Islamic parties, Hamas and Hezbollah,
sponsored by Iran, have subverted peace in the Middle East.
As stated in “tells us why we should reject the ‘Blame Israel
First’ narrative that has so thoroughly saturated the mainstream media… It
confronts the myth of Arab Palestinian victimhood… and it delivers a rousing
restatement of the true history of the hate that led us to all this.” America needs to be Israel ’s
protector, for as George Gilder has observed, “If the United States cannot defend Israel Israel
Foreword
In “Why Israel is the Victim” tells the ugly tale of the war
against Israel
Propaganda precedes war; it digs the graves and waits for them to
be filled. The war against the Jews has never been limited to bullets and
swords; it has always, first and foremost, been a war of words. When bombs
explode on buses and rockets rain down on Israel
homes, when mobs chant “Death to the Jews” and Iran
The lie big enough to fill a million graves is that Israel has no
right to exist, that the Jewish State is an illegitimate entity, an occupier, a
warmonger and a conqueror. The big lie is that Israel
From the latest outburst of violence to its earliest antecedents
under the Palestine Mandate, “Why Israel is the Victim” exposes the true nature
of the war and wipes away the lies used by the killers and their collaborators
to lend moral authority to their crimes. It shows not only why Israel
“Why Israel
Recent history shows us that it was not an Israeli refusal to
grant the Palestinian Arabs the right of self-determination that led to their campaigns
of terror, but that Arab Palestinian self-determination empowered a people
steeped in the hatred of Jews to engage in terrorism.
With the peace process each new level of Arab Palestinian
self-determination led to an intensified wave of terror against Israel
The 2006 election showed once again that the root cause of
terrorism lay in a culture where political popularity came from killing Jews,
not from bringing peace.
Hamas’ ability to carry out more spectacular terrorist attacks,
employing motivated Islamist suicide bombers, gave it the inside track in the
election. Where Western political parties might compete for popularity by
offering voters peace and prosperity, Arab Palestinian factions competed over
who could kill more Jews. And Hamas won based on its killing sprees and its
unwillingness to water down its platform of destroying Israel
Hamas’ victory cannot
be viewed as an isolated response to Israeli actions. Hamas leaders have stated that they were the
vanguard of the Arab Spring, and the 2006 elections foreshadowed the regional
downfall of Arab Socialists and the rise of the Islamists. The outcome of the
elections in Egypt could
have been foreseen from across the border in Gaza
The defining test of any political philosophy in the Middle East is its ability to defeat foreign powers and
drive out foreign influences. Israel
has been the target of repeated efforts by both Arab Socialists and Islamists
to destroy it because it is the nearest non-Arab and non-Muslim country in the
region, but the regional ascendance of Islamists in the Arab Spring forces us
to recognize that this phenomenon is not limited to Israel
War is the force that gives Islamists meaning. During the last Gaza
The ascendance of Hamas has made it clearer than ever that Arab Palestinian
terrorism is not the resistance of helpless people who only want autonomy and
territory, but the calculated choice of determined aggressors.
If occupation were the issue, then the less territory Israel
Israel’s withdrawals from Gaza and Lebanon did not lead to peace,
they led to greater instability as Hamas and Hezbollah exploited the power
vacuum to take over Gaza and Lebanon, and used that newfound power to escalate
the conflict with Israel. The less territory Israel
The goal of the terrorists has never been an Israeli withdrawal
and a separate peace, but the perpetuation of the conflict, and the elimination
of the Jewish state.
Half a year after Israel
withdrew from Gaza Israel had
withdrawn from Gaza ; Hamas had found a way to
bring Israeli soldiers back into Gaza
Cut off from attacking Israel Gaza
As the volume and range of Hamas’ rockets increased, Israel Israel
Operation Cast Lead destroyed enough of Hamas’ stockpiles and
capabilities to reduce rocket attacks down to the 2004 and 2005 levels, but
another dramatic increase in attacks in 2012, with over 2,000 rockets fired
into Israel, combined with the smuggling of Fajr 5 rockets capable of reaching
Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, forced Israel to carry out a series of strikes against
Hamas in Operation Pillar of Defense.
Both times Israel
War is a choice. Hamas has chosen war over and over again and the Palestinian
Arabs have chosen Hamas. After six years of fighting, in a recent poll 9 out of
10 Palestinian Arabs agreed with the tactics of Hamas proving that their
violence is not a reflexive response to occupation, but a choice. The violence
does not spring from the occupation. The occupation springs from their
violence.
By choosing Hamas in 2006 and today, the Palestinian Arabs were
not rejecting peace, for they had never chosen peace. The difference between
Hamas and Arafat’s Fatah lay not in a choice between war and peace, but between
overt war and covert war. Both Hamas and Fatah had dedicated themselves to the
destruction of the Jewish State. The practical difference between them is that
Hamas refuses to even pretend to recognize Israel
By choosing Hamas, the Palestinian Arabs were sending the message
that they felt confident enough to be able to dispense with Fatah’s dissembling
and strong enough to no longer need to lie to Israel
and America
The ascendance of Hamas is the logical progression of the entire
history of the conflict that you will read about in this pamphlet. It is the
inevitable outcome of a war of destruction based on race and religion. It
contains within it the inescapable truth that peace is farthest away when the
terrorist groups who would destroy Israel
Looking down on the earth from space, Israel
appears as only a tiny strip of land wedged at an angle between Africa, Europe
and the Middle East against the Mediterranean Sea .
From up here there is little to distinguish the otherwise indistinct land and
no way to conceive of the terrible life and death struggle taking place in the
hills, deserts and cities below.
The Jewish State, like the Jewish People, is small in size but
great in presence. The scattered people that half the world has tried to
destroy have formed into a nation that half the world is trying to destroy
again. Only four years separated the Nazi gas chambers of 1944 from the
invading Arab armies of 1948, who, along with the Nazi-funded Muslim
Brotherhood, were bent on wiping out the indigenous Jewish population along
with the Holocaust survivors who had made their way to the ports and shoals of
the rebuilt Jewish State.
Before 1948, the Jews of Israel lived in a state of constant
victimization at the hands of Islamic leaders such as Haj Amin al-Husseini,
Hitler’s Mufti, and Izz ad-Din al-Qassam of The Black Hand gang, after whom
Hamas’ Qassam rockets are named. After 1948 they were forced to live in a state
of constant vigilance against the invasions of armies and the bombs, bullets
and shells of terrorists. The Arab nations have expelled close to a million
Jews and confiscated their homes and properties.
Once Israel Gaza and the West Bank were in Egyptian and Jordanian
hands, Fedayeen terrorists used them as bases to invade Israel Israel
At no point in time, regardless of the date, the prime minister or
the policy, did Israel Israel Israel
As a nation of wandering exiles, Jews had lived with the knowledge
that they had no rights that could not be taken away at a whim and no certainty
of safety that would endure beyond the next explosion of violence. That is
still how Israel
The way that a majority treats a minority is a test of its
character. Nazi Germany showed what it intended for Europe
with its treatment of the Jews. As did the Soviet Union .
The Muslim world has likewise shown its intentions toward the rest of the world
with its treatment of Israel
Within the pages of this pamphlet you will find the story of this
new war against the Jews, as a people, and against Israel
The old saying, “A lie will go round the world while truth is
pulling its boots on,” is truer than ever in the age of the Internet when the
speed of lies has become instantaneous. The pamphlet that you are about to read
represents an equally instantaneous response to those lies with the best
possible weapon; the truth.
Arm yourself with it.
As stated.
Why Israel is the
Victim
The Gaza Strip is a narrow corridor of land, 25 miles long and
about twice the area of Washington , D.C. situated between the State of Israel and the
Mediterranean Sea, and has a small southern border with Egypt Turkish
Empire , in 1948, eight Arab countries launched an attack on the
infant regime with the stated goal of destroying it. The attackers included Egypt whose tanks invaded Israel through the Gaza Israel
emerged triumphant but did not occupy Gaza
In 1949, Egypt Gaza
and closed the Port of Eilat in an attempt to strangle the Israeli State Israel struck back and in a
“Six Day War” vanquished the Egyptian armies and drove them out of Gaza Israel refused to withdraw its armies from Gaza and the West Bank because the Arab invaders, which
included Iraq , Jordan Gaza
By 2005 they numbered 8,500, a tiny community compared to the 1.4
million Palestinian Arabs. While they lived in Gaza ,
the lives of the Jewish settlers were in constant danger, particularly after
the formation in Gaza of one the world’s leading
terrorist organizations, Hamas, whose stated goal is the destruction of Israel and the establishment of an Islamic state
“from the [Jordan
After the rejection of the Oslo Peace process in 2001 by Yassir
Arafat and the Palestinian Authority, the Palestinians launched four years of
unrelenting terrorist attacks on Israeli civilians. The attacks were led by
Hamas, Palestinian Islamic Jihad, and the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade, an arm of
the Palestinian Authority. As a result of the Arab Palestinian rejection of the
peace process and the unrelenting terrorism, the Israeli government decided
that a secure peace could probably not be negotiated with its Arab Palestinian
antagonists. It therefore built a fence along its borders both on the West Bank
and Gaza
Forget for a moment all the strategic and geopolitical rationales
for the Gaza pullout and consider only the
reason that the Jewish settlements in Gaza were
an issue at all: Palestinian Arabs and indeed all the Arab states of the Middle East hate Jews and want to dismantle the Jewish
state. They hate Jews so ferociously that they cannot live alongside them.
There is not an Arab state or Arab controlled piece of territory in the Middle East that will allow one Jew to live in it. This
is why in 1948 the Arab states rejected the two- state solution that would have
created an Arab Palestinian state in the West Bank and Gaza
In contrast to the hostility of all Arab states to any Jew, Israel Israel Middle East
“problem.”
But the ethnic cleansing of the Jews has always been the objective
of Arabs and Palestinians. The real goal of Arab nationalism has always been an
Islamic Arab Middle East with no competing nationalities or cultures.
Palestinians Arabs have shown twice in 1948 and again in 2001 that they want to
kill Jews more than they want an Arab Palestinian state.
The tiny Jewish population of Gaza Gaza Gaza Gaza is only $770 million.1 If the Palestinian inhabitants of Gaza
When the Jews left, there remained the problem of what to do with
the existing greenhouses. A Jewish philanthropist in America Gaza Gaza
as a step in the process of ending the fifty year war of the Arab states and
the Palestinian Arabs against Israel
The Palestinian answer to this peace offering was unambiguous and
swift. As soon as the Israeli troops left, Palestinians Arabs rushed in to loot
the greenhouses that had been given to them, stripping them of the pumps, hoses
and other equipment that had made them so productive.2
The withdrawal from Gaza is an
emblem of the entire Middle East conflict. It
is not a conflict of right versus right. It is a conflict inspired by ethnic
hate, by the unwillingness of the Arabs of the Middle East
to live as neighbors with a people that are democratic, non-Arab and
non-Muslim. The cause of the conflict is that the Arabs hate Jews more than
they love peace.
The Jewish Problem and
Its “Solution”
Zionism is a national liberation movement, identical in most ways
to other liberation movements that leftists and progressives the world over—and
in virtually every case but this one—fervently support. This exceptionalism is
also visible at the reverse end of the political spectrum: In every other
instance, right-wingers oppose national liberation movements that are under the
spell of Marxist delusions and committed to violent means. But they make an
exception for the one that Palestinians have aimed at the Jews. The unique
opposition to a Jewish homeland at both ends of the political spectrum
identifies the problem that Zionism was created to solve.
The “Jewish problem” is just another name for the fact that Jews
are the most universally hated and persecuted ethnic group in history. The
Zionist founders believed that hatred of Jews was a direct consequence of their
stateless condition. As long as Jews were aliens in every society they found
themselves in, they would always be seen as interlopers, their loyalties would
be suspect and persecution would follow. This was what happened to Captain
Alfred Dreyfus, whom French anti-Semites falsely accused of spying and who was
put on trial for treason by the French government in the 19th Century. Theodore
Herzl was an assimilated, westernized Jew, who witnessed the Dreyfus frame up
in Paris
Herzl and other Zionist founders believed that if Jews had a
nation of their own, the very fact would “normalize” their condition in the
community of nations. Jews had been without a state since the beginning of the Diaspora,
when the Romans expelled them from Judea on the west bank of the Jordan River , some 2,000 years before. Once the Jews
obtained a homeland—Judea itself seemed a
logical site— and were again like other peoples, the Zionists believed
anti-Semitism would wither on its poisonous vine and the Jewish problem would
disappear.
As part of
the settlement in which the Arabs received most of the lands formerly under
Turkish sovereignty in the Middle East, the whole of Palestine ,
on both sides of the Jordan
But in 1921, the British separated 80% of the land of Israel
and established “Transjordan .” It was created
for the Arabian monarch King Abdullah, who had been defeated in tribal warfare
in the Arabian Peninsula and lacked a seat of
power. Abudllah’s tribe was Hashemite, while the vast majority of Abdullah’s
subjects were Palestinian Arabs.
What was left of the original Palestine Mandate—between the west
bank of the Jordan and the Mediterranean sea —had been settled by Arabs and Jews.
Jews, in fact, had lived in the area continuously for 3,700 years, even after
the Romans destroyed their state in Judea in
70 AD. Arabs became the dominant local population
for the first time in the 7th Century
AD as a result of the Muslim invasions. These Arabs were largely nomads who had
no distinctive language or culture to separate them from other Arabs. In all
the time since, they had made no attempt to create an independent Arab Palestinian
state west or east of the Jordan River and
none was ever established.
The pressure for a Jewish homeland was dramatically increased, of
course, by the Nazi Holocaust which targeted the Jews for extermination and
succeeded in killing six million, in part because no country—not even England
or the United States— would open their borders and allow Jews fleeing death to
enter. In 1948, the United Nations voted to partition the remaining portion of
the original Mandate, which had not been given to Jordan
Under the partition plan, the Arabs were given the Jews’ ancient
home in Judea and Samaria —now known as the West
Bank, and the “Gaza Strip” on the border with Egypt Mediterranean
and the Sinai desert. They were also cut off from the slivers, surrounded by
Arab land and under international control. Sixty percent of the land allotted
to the Jews was the Negev desert. The entire
portion represented only about 10% of the original Palestine Mandate. Out of
these unpromising parts, the Jews created a new state, Israel
Thus, at the moment of Israel ’s
birth, Palestinian Arabs lived on roughly 90% of the original Palestine
Mandate— in Transjordan and in the UN partition area, but also in the new state
of Israel Israel
alongside 650,000 Jews (a figure that would increase rapidly as a result of the
influx of refugees from Europe and the Middle East ).
At the same time, Jews were legally barred from settling in the 35,000 square
miles of Palestinian Transjordan, which eventually was renamed simply “Jordan
The Arab population in Israel
If the Palestinian Arabs had been willing to accept this
arrangement in which they received 90% of the land in the Palestine Mandate,
and under which they benefited from the industry, enterprise and political
democracy the Jews brought to the region, there would have been no Middle East conflict. But they were not.
Instead, the Arab League—representing five neighboring Arab
states— declared war on Israel
But the Jews—many of them recent Holocaust survivors— refused to
be defeated. Instead, the five Arab armies that had invaded were repelled. Yet
there was no peace. Even though their armies were beaten, the Arab states were
determined to carry on their campaign of destruction and to remain formally at
war with the Israeli state. After the defeat of the Arab armies, the
Palestinians who lived in the Arab area of the UN partition did not attempt to
create a state of their own. Instead, in 1950, Jordan
annexed the entire West Bank and Egypt
Refugees: Jewish and
Arab
As a result of the annexation and the continuing state of war, the
Arab refugees who had fled the Israeli slivers did not return. There was a
refugee flow into Israel Middle East , Jews were forced to
leave lands they had lived on for centuries. Although Israel
At the same time, the Jews resumed their work of creating a new
nation. Israel had annexed a
small amount of territory to make their state defensible, including a land
bridge that connected to Jerusalem

The peace was signed by Egyptian president, Anwar Sadat, who was
subsequently assassinated by Islamic radicals, paying for his statesmanship
with his life. Sadat is one of three Arab leaders assassinated by other Arabs
for making peace with the Jews.
Under the Camp David accords that Sadat signed, Israel Middle East
conflict was ready at hand. It only required the willingness of the Arabs to
agree.
Even to this day, the Arabs claim that Jewish settlements in the West Bank are the obstacle to peace. But the Arab settlements
in Israel —they are actually
called “cities”—are not a problem for Israel Camp David accords proved false. It is really based,
however, on the assumption that Jewish settlements will not be allowed in an
Arab Palestinian state—which is an Arab decision and is the essence of the
entire problem: the unwillingness of the Arabs to live side by side with
“infidel” Jews.
The Middle East conflict is not about Israel ’s
reoccupation of its rightful territories; it is about the refusal of the Arabs
to make peace with Israel Israel Israel
Self Determination Is
Not The Agenda
The Palestinians Arabs and their supporters also claim that the
Middle East conflict is about the Arab Palestinians’ yearning for a state and
the refusal of Israel Israel Jordan Jordan
The official “covenant” of the new Palestine Liberation
Organization referred to the “Zionist invasion,” declared that Israel’s Jews
were “not an independent nationality,” described Zionism as “racist” and
“fascist,” called for “the liquidation of the Zionist presence,” and specified,
“armed struggle is the only way to liberate Jewish Palestine.” In short,
“liberation” required the destruction of the Jewish state.
For thirty years, the PLO covenant remained unchanged in its call
for Israel Oslo
Even during the “Oslo” peace process—when the Palestine
Liberation Organization pretended to recognize the existence of Israel and the
Jews therefore allowed the creation of a “Palestine Authority”—it was clear that the
PLO’s goal was Israel’s destruction, and not just because its leader invoked
the Prophet Muhammad’s own deception. The Arab Palestinians’ determination to
destroy Israel is abundantly
clear in their newly created demand of a “right of return” to Israel Israel
In addition to its absurdity, this new demand has several aspects
that reveal the Arab Palestinians’ genocidal agenda for the Jews. The first is
that the “right of return” is itself a calculated mockery of the primary reason
for Israel Israel
But there is no genocidal threat to Arabs, no lack of
international support militarily and economically, and no Arab Palestinian “Diaspora”
(although the Arab Palestinians have cynically appropriated the very term to
describe their self inflicted quandary). The fact that many Arabs, including
the Arab Palestinian spiritual leader—the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem— supported
Hitler’s “Final Solution” only serves to compound the insult. It is even
further compounded by the fact that more than 90% of the Arab Palestinians now
in the West Bank and Gaza have never lived a day of their lives in territorial
Israel. The claim of a “right of return” is thus little more than a brazen
expression of contempt for the Jews, and for their historic suffering.
More importantly, it is an expression of contempt for the very
idea of a Jewish state. The incorporation of five million Arabs into Israel would render the Jews a permanent
minority in their own country, and would thus spell the end of Israel
Possibly the most glaring expression of the Arabs’ bad faith is
their deplorable treatment of the Arab Palestinian refugees and refusal for over
a half century to relocate them, or to alleviate their condition, even during
the years they were under Jordanian rule. While Israel
was making the desert bloom and relocating 600,000 Jewish refugees expelled from
Arab states, and building a thriving industrial democracy, the Arabs were busy
making sure that their refugees remained in squalid refugee camps in the West
Bank and Gaza Israel Jordan Israel
The Policy of
Resentment and Hate
The refusal to address the condition of the Arab Palestinian
refugee population is—and has always been—a calculated Arab policy, intended to
keep the Arab Palestinians in a state of desperation in order to incite their
hatred of Israel for the wars to come. Not to leave anything to chance, the
mosques and schools of the Arabs generally—and the Arab Palestinians in
particular—preach and teach Jew hatred every day. Elementary school children in
Palestinian Arab schools are even taught to chant “Death to the heathen Jews”
in their classrooms as they are learning to read. It should not be overlooked,
that these twin policies of deprivation (of the Palestinian Arabs) and hatred
(of the Jews) are carried out without any protest from any sector of Arab Palestinian
or Arab society. That in itself speaks volumes about the nature of the Middle East conflict.
There are plenty of individual Arab Palestinian victims, as there
are Jewish victims, familiar from the nightly news. But the collective Arab Palestinian
grievance is without justice. It is a self -inflicted wound, the product of the
Arabs’ xenophobia, bigotry, exploitation of their own people, and apparent
inability to be generous towards those who are not Arabs. While Israel
As the repellent attitudes, criminal methods and dishonest goals

While the same Arab states that claim to be outraged by the Jews’
treatment of how Arab Palestinians treat their own Arab populations far worse
than Arabs are treated in Israel ,
they are also silent about the disenfranchised Arab Palestinian majority that
lives in Jordan Jordan Jordan
It is hatred, moreover, that is increasingly lethal. During the
Second Intifada 70% of the Arabs in the West Bank and Gaza Israel Israel
A Phony Peace
The Oslo Israel
In fact, during the peace process—between 1993 and 1999—there were
over 4,000 terrorist incidents committed by Arab Palestinians against Israelis,
and more than 1,000 Israelis killed as a result of Arab Palestinian
attacks—more than had been killed in the previous 25 years. By contrast, during
the same period Israelis were so desperate for peace that they reciprocated
these acts of murder by giving the Arab Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza
In fact, the Arab Palestinians broke the Oslo Accords precisely
because of Israeli generosity, because the government of Ehud Barak offered to
meet 95% of their demands, including turning over parts of Jerusalem Israel
Arafat rejected these Israeli concessions, accompanying his
rejection with a new explosion of anti-Jewish violence. He named this
violence—deviously— “The al-Aqsa Intifada,” after the mosque on the Temple
Mount, giving his new jihad the name of a Muslim shrine to create the illusion
that the Intifada was provoked not by his unilateral destruction of the Oslo peace
process, but by then hard-line opposition leader Ariel Sharon’s highly
publicized visit to the site. Months after the Intifada began; the Arab Palestine
Authority itself admitted this was just another Arafat lie.
In fact, the Intifada had been planned months before Sharon U.S. Sharon
In an interview he gave after the new Intifada began, Faisal
Husseini—a well-known “moderate” in the PLO leadership, compared the Oslo
“peace process” to a “Trojan horse” designed to fool the Israelis into letting
the Arab Palestinians arm themselves inside the Jewish citadel in order to
destroy it. “If you are asking me as a Pan-Arab nationalist what are the Arab Palestinian
borders according to the higher strategy, I will immediately reply: ‘From the
river to the sea’”— in other words, from the Jordan to the Mediterranean, with
not even the original slivers left for Israel. Note too, Husseini’s self
identification as a “Pan-Arab nationalist.” Just as there is no Arab Palestinian
desire for peace with Israel
Moral Distinctions
In assessing the reasons for the Middle East
impasse one must also pay attention to the moral distinction between the two
combatants as revealed in their actions. When a deranged Jew goes into an Arab
mosque and kills the worshippers (which happened once) he is acting alone and
is universally condemned by the Israeli government and the Jews in Israel
It is not only the methods of the Arab Palestine liberation
movement that are morally repellent. The Arab Palestinian cause is itself
corrupt. The “Arab Palestinian problem” is a problem created by the Arabs
themselves, and can only be solved by them. The reason there are Arab Palestinian
“refugees” is because no Arab state— except Jordan Israel Jordan Jordan
The famous “green line” marking the boundary between Israel and its Arab neighbors is also the bottom
line for what is the real problem in the Middle East .
It is green because plants are growing in the desert on the Israeli side but
not on the Arab side. The Jews got a sliver of land without oil, and created
abundant wealth and life in all its rich and diverse forms. The Arabs got nine
times the acreage but all they have done with it is to sit on its aridity and
nurture the poverty, resentments and hatreds of its inhabitants. Out of these
dark elements they have created and perfected the vilest antihuman terrorism
the world has ever seen: Suicide bombing of civilians.
