Ukrainian Oligarch Fugitives Wanted by Interpol, Pay Bribes for Israeli Citizenship

Galey Tzahal (Army Radio) reported today that Israel welcomed with open arms two Ukrainian oligarchs wanted by Interpol for serious crimes. The suspects, Yuri Borisov and Eduard Stavitsky, are suspected of embezzlement and money-laundering in Ukraine. They flew into Ben Gurion airport and received Israeli entry visas. Borisov’s visa was approved for the purposes of medical treatment, though it’s not clear what, if anything ails him except him criminal predicament. Borisov fled Israel immediately after the arrest of Yisrael Beitenu MK Faina Kirschenbaum, but stayed long enough (about a month) to get citizenship and passports for him and his entire family.

At least two US senators, including the chamber's longest-serving lawmaker, will skip Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's speech to Congress next month, deepening a partisan fissure over the controversial address.

In a blunt statement Tuesday, Democratic Senator Patrick Leahy accused Republican leaders in the House of Representatives of "unilaterally" arranging and politicizing Netanyahu's planned address before a joint meeting of Congress on March 3.

Bibi: You Don’t Speak for Me. Cancel the Speech

A few weeks ago, House Speaker John Boehner and Israeli Ambassador Ron Dermer cooked up what they thought was a surefire way to stick a finger in the eye of their nemesis, Pres. Barack Obama, advance Israel’s anti-Iran interests, and ensure Bibi wins the next election. Boehner invited Bibi Netanyahu to address a joint session of Congress two weeks before the Israeli elections. The topic of his talk would be Iran: why the mullahs are untrustworthy; why sanctions should be tightened; and why a nuclear deal will be bad for the world, but good for Iran.

Operation Protective Edge is the killing machine of the 2010s, to Israel’s everlasting shame. That is not how Israel perceives it, nor, increasingly, world, and especially American, Jewry. I write as a proud Jew, seeking to rid Judaism of the incubus of a hubristic-militaristic Israel that needn’t have taken the form it did, as emulator of Nazi-style practices against a resident population on land which could have been the refuge of both. The nakba was inexcusable, degrading, cruel, immoral, the very antithesis of what Torah proclaims about care for the oppressed and love of the stranger. Israelis, by their actions, have forfeited their claim even to be considered Jewish, so vile their treatment of those they have already reduced to a parlous state. Gaza today is Dresden, rubble as far as the eye can see; only Hiroshima and Nagasaki look worse. Children playing amid ruins, families in tents and caravans, building materials intercepted by sea and turned back, infrastructure, UN schools, hospitals demolished—an Israeli society, passive onlookers, casual, uninterested, deaf to the cries of suffering and privation. Judaism mocked at the highest levels.

Hamas Rebuffs Blair’s Allegations
Quartet Links Rebuilding Gaza With Ceding Palestinian Rights

Senior member of Hamas’ political bureau Mousa Abu-Marzkouk yesterday revealed that Quartet peace envoy Tony Blair is trying to blackmail Hamas in return for reconstructing the Gaza Strip.

On his Facebook page, Abu-Marzouk revealed five conditions put by the Quartet that Hamas has to meet in order to make way for the reconstruction of what the Israeli occupation destroyed during last summer’s 51-day war in Gaza.

Abu-Marzouk said: “Once again, and in the name of the international community, Tony Blair is exploiting the tragedy made by the Israeli occupation that includes the destruction of homes and making people homeless.”

Today, Bibi Netanyahu lectured American Jews at the Aipac national conference about his Churchillian date with destiny. John Boehner’s even giving him a bust of the dead Brit tomorrow as a gesture of eternal political omerta. Tomorrow, Bibi will address those members of Congress who don’t have the temerity to skip his megalomaniacal oration. As of the minute I write this 55 members (UPDATE: now 56), including eight Senators, will be absent. That’s 15% of the House and one-quarter of the entire Democratic caucus, and just short of 10% of the Senate. These people are heroes. They shouldn’t have to be, but in light of the power of the Lobby, they are.

Jewish protesters in anti-Netanyahu rally outside AIPAC

Some of the protesters said they were of Palestinian descent, but others were Jewish.

It was this second group that surprised many of those exiting the AIPAC conference.

Jacob Weisfeld of 'Texans for Israel', said he "didn't expect to see any Jews out here protesting at all. I expected to see more people with Palestinian flags talking about the occupation". ....

There are Lies, Damn Lies, and Ron Dermer

Two incendiary Likudist media provocations today: the first is yet another in a series of Rabbi Shmuley Boteach’s New York Times ads touting Sheldon Adelson’s anti-Muslim agenda. Previous ads in the series have attacked Iran, Hamas and the UN with equal vitriol.....
.... It essentially accuses Susan Rice, Obama’s national security advisor, and by extension the President himself, of being willing collaborators in a future genocide against not just Israel, but the entire Jewish people....
.........Note, in the ad the attempt at drawing a parallel between Rwandan and Jewish genocide. This is no accident: Paul Kagame is a “good friend” of both Israel’s and Shmuley’s. He’s appeared at pro-Israelfests along with Elie Wiesel and Adelson. Kagame’s Rwanda is a major customer of Israel’s military defense industry, buying millions in advanced weaponry. As I’ve written here, Israel likes its African clients to be hungry for weapons, corrupt and tyrannical. Kagame, co-author of Congolese genocide which has murdered over 4-million, fits the bill perfectly.....
.........There is another thinly concealed factor in the attack on Rice: race. It’s no secret that the majority of those Congress members refusing to attend Netanyahu’s Congressional speech are members of the Black Caucus. The Israel Lobby, which heavily finances some House races in minority districts, doubtless sees this as a betrayal. Further, Boteach and Adelson can’t attack Obama head-on since he’s the President, so they attack the second most senior African-American in the administration, Susan Rice. Make no mistake, this is politics as ugly as it gets. And the only reason it won’t get a lot uglier in the next election is the likely Democratic candidate will be white.

More must be done to inoculate the American people against the hate and lies spewed by the Adelson-Boteach cabal.

Netanyahu lies when he speaks about peace, or preventing a nuclear war. What he wants is to keep Israel as the only nuclear power in the Middle East. What Israel wants is to prevent the emergence of any deterrence, or “balance of terror”, which will force it to start negotiating seriously with the Palestinians and its Arab neighbors.

A United States federal judge has ordered New York's Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) to display on its buses a controversial ad that refers to Muslims killing Jews, rejecting the argument that the ad could incite "terrorism" or imminent violence.

In his ruling, published on Tuesday, US District Judge John Koeltl in Manhattan said the ad from the American Freedom Defense Initiative (AFDI), http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stop_Islamization_of_America which had previously run in Chicago and San Francisco, was protected speech under the First Amendment of the US Constitution.

http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2015/04/judge-muslims-killing-jews-ads-buses-150422013416574.html

(Geller and the American Freedom Defense Initiative made headlines in September 2014 by launching a $100,000 anti-Muslim ad campaign in New York City’s subway system.

One of the ads depicted American journalist James Foley shortly before he was murdered by ISIS. In a letter to Geller, the Foley family’s attorney stated, “The advertisement you are preparing to run seems to convey the message that ordinary practitioners of Islam are a dangerous threat. This message is entirely inconsistent with Mr. Foley’s reporting and his beliefs.”

The New York Daily News later reported, “Foley’s parents joined critics saying the ads were bigoted and slanderous to law-abiding Muslims, prompting firebrand blogger Pamela Geller to pull the campaign and send a letter to the family.” )

U.S. counter-intelligence figures calculate that Israel is the third most active country in spying in and on the U.S. Jonathan Pollard, Larry Franklin, Ari Ben Menashe, and scores of other American Jews who spied for Israel are almost household words in the spy trade. Not to mention Israeli-Americans like Arnon Milchan, who pursued their careers while also lending their hands to Israeli intelligence efforts.

Israeli Extremism Will Encourage Global Boycott

(Omar Barghouti is a Palestinian activist and one of the founders of the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement. He is the author of “Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions: The Global Struggle for Palestinian Rights.” )

Israel has elected the most fanatic government in its history. But many Palestinian human rights activists and politicians expect this government, an unpalatable cocktail of right, far-right and fundamentalist Jewish parties, to be the mother of all silver-lined clouds.

This drastic shift to the right cannot, in the short term, bode well for Palestinians languishing under Israel’s regime of oppression. The siege of Gaza, the illegal construction of settlements, especially in Jerusalem, the destruction of Palestinian communities in the Jordan Valley and the Naqab (Negev) will get worse, exacting an even steeper human price.
