The Palestinian liberation scam: A global failure

What will it take for the world to confront the evil realities being carried out in the name of “Palestinian liberation?”

I still have a vivid picture of the stunningly beautiful Bibas children with their red-hair - full of life and laughter. Violently kidnapped from their home in Israel, they have now returned from Gaza in coffins, as forensic evidence revealed having been brutally murdered.

The blame must be laid at the feet of these demoniacs from Gaza, who are a scourge to all mankind.

But it does not stop there. Because it also extends to the nations which chose to turn a blind eye to fact-based truth, moral clarity and the courage to stand up to the Islamic Nazis of our time by doing the right thing.

Silence in the face of evil is also evil.  The failure to expose it and the urgency to fight against it allows innocent lives to be snuffed out by Satanic darkness and the death cult of our time.

When will enough be enough? Or, to express it differently, when will the world have the courage to face the true nature of the Palestinian issue?

In 1917, after World War I, Britain legally controlled the region of Palestine, a territory, not a country. This is why there has never been a Palestinian king or queen, Palestinian currency, or a defined Palestinian people.

In 1937, 95% of the area was offered to the Arabs, with only 5% proposed for the Jews. The Arabs rejected this offer.

In the 1947-48 UN Partition Plan, half of the territory of what had been called Palestine was offered to the Arabs, and the other half to the Jews.

The Arabs could have accepted it, just as the Jews did and created a thriving and peaceful nation on the Mediterranean, also, just as the Jews did.

Instead, fueled by Islamic Jihadism, the Arabs chose war in an attempt to destroy the Jewish state. Once David Ben Gurion declared the State of Israel, Tel Aviv was attacked by Egyptian Air Forces, and the armies of Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Iraq, Lebanon, as well as other forces, invaded Israel’s new land.

At that time, these countries outnumbered the Jews 40 to 1 in troops, 100 to 1 in population, 1,000 to 1 in military equipment, and 5,000 to 1 in land mass. Israel had 1 rifle for every 5 men, no artillery, an air force made up of a few planes, and a navy consisting of a few old ships.

But against all odds—and, on the heels of the Holocaust, the Jews prevailed, and the Arabs were defeated!

To this day, Palestinian Arabs refer to this period as the “Nakba” (the day of catastrophe)—an event that might be better understood in the West as “shooting yourself in the foot.” It is, what they see as their tragedy.

What is clear is that the Arab states went to war with the State of Israel because they denied the historical connection of the Jewish people to the land of Israel, despite the undeniable reality of a 4,000-year-old Jewish presence, insisting instead on the territory being a single, unified Arab and Islamic state

Nothing has changed!

It is the same reason the Palestinian Arabs have rejected the offer of statehood five times!

The sad truth is that Palestinian Arabs have managed to manipulate the world, rather than take any responsibility for their self-defeating failures.

They’ve done this by gaslighting the world—distracting, desensitizing, and deflecting from their determined strategy to destroy Israel and by promoting their death cult, mostly through the use of ignorant young people.

They feed the false narrative that Israel is 'the oppressor' in 'occupied Arab land,' perpetuating the evil of murder and rape against Jews, as they call it a justified response. Those who join in their marketing strategy, chanting 'From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,' are not only deluded by evil, but have become puppets of evil.

Imagine Palestine as a metaphorical woman named, ‘Palestina.’

Imagine so-called 'uncles' who parade her before the world, offering her hand in marriage. Uncles such as Mahmoud Abbas, worth $100 million (and before him, the Egyptian con-man Yasser Arafat, who died with a fortune exceeding a billion dollars) a man who spearheads the 'pay-for-slay' policy with a yearly budget of $400 million, rewarding Palestinians who murder Jews and Christians. In these last few weeks, he said, 'I have told you before and mark my words, even if we only have one cent left, it will be for the prisoners and martyrs.’

Yet, no one knows this prospective bride’s history. There are no records of her past, no trace of her real identity. No one has truly seen “Palestina!” except for her “uncles,” who have created her to manipulate the world for their own personal gain as well as inspire terrorism which murders the innocent.

Yet, as crazy as it sounds, gullible world leaders have lined up to marry her, over the course of decades —scammed into the greatest con job history has ever known, while innocent lives, such as the Bibas family are butchered and slaughtered.

Some argue that the difference between the Palestinian Authority and Hamas is that the Palestinian Authority is willing to negotiate a compromise.

However, to this day, the Palestinian Authority has not issued a direct condemnation of the October 7, 2023, Hamas-led massacre in Israel, nor has it condemned the murders of Shiri, Ariel, and Kfir Bibas. Instead, President Mahmoud Abbas characterized the massacre as a form of "resistance." Furthermore, kindergartens and schools in Gaza and the Palestinian Authority continue to teach the slogan “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” which means the annihilation of Israel.

German theologian and pastor, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, who confronted the insanity of Hitler and risked his life rescuing Jews, said, 'Silence in the face of evil is itself evil: God will not hold us guiltless. Not to speak is to speak. Not to act is to act.'

We are now at a Bonhoeffer moment.

But this time, we are not facing German Nazism promoting a “superior race.” Instead, we are confronting the promotion of a 'superior faith,' purposed to destroy Western civilization and replace it with a new Islamic world order.

 It’s time for the world to break its silence, reject this insidious scam, and stand up against evil. If we don’t, we will all be complicit in the suffering that follows.
