Israel: Ang. medborgarskapsdramat…

Som vanligt gick Svenne bananas när han läste:
Lättare mista medborgarskap i Israel. [DN]
Läs nedanstående och återvänd sedan till din plats i ledet.

Lagen har kritiserats från olika håll. Innan man kritiserar Israel alltför hårt bör man jämföra med andra länder. I USA och Kanada kan man mista sitt medborgarskap för den jämförelsevis ringa förseelsen att ha ljugit på ansökningsformuläret när man en gång i tiden sökte om medborgarskap.
Den klausulen har båda länder använt flitigt genom åren för att fråntaga nazistiska krigsförbrytare deras medborgarskap och skicka tillbaka dem till Europa. Visserligen har nazisterna begått enorma brott, men inte mot USA/Kanada eller deras medborgare.
Om det är rimligt i USA att strippa medborgarskapet för att ha glömt några självbiografiska detaljer i ett formulär, då bör det också vara rimligt att strippa medborgarskapet från israeliska terrorister som sysslar med att spränga sina landsmän till köttfärs.

Israel: Det är till dessa gullungar ni skickar era ”fredliga” konvojer

gullegullfjutt
Jo, det är alltså med dessa gossar som Ship to Gaza-älskande Svenne vill att israelerna ska förhandla med.
Verkligen lovande, är det inte? Det är till dessa huliganer ni åker för att gulla och skaka hand.
Jesus Kristus. Vakna!
Och det är dessa gullungar som tar hand om en stor del av de pengar vi jollrande skickar till ”palestinierna”.
Några utdrag ur HAMAS: Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow— NO PARTNER FOR PEACE
PREAMBLE: “‘Israel will exist and will continue to exist until Islam will obliterate it, just as it obliterated others before it’. (The Martyr, Imam Hassan al-Banna, of blessed memory). . . . Our struggle against the Jews is very great and very serious. It needs all sincere efforts. . . . The Movement is but one squadron that should be supported by more and more squadrons from this vast Arab and Islamic world, until the enemy is vanquished and Allah’s victory is realized.”
ARTICLE 7: “‘The Day of Judgment will not come about until Moslems fight the Jews (killing the Jews), when the Jew will hide behind stones and trees. The stones and trees will say O Moslems, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him. Only the Gharkad tree . . . would not do that because it is one of the trees of the Jews’.” [citing “al-Bukhari and Moslem”]
HAMAS’ BATTLE CRIES:
“Truly, the destruction of the state of Israel is a Quranic inevitability.”
“The language of bullets and bombs is the only language that the Jews understand.”
“Hamas, Hamas, Jews to the gas!”
“The Jews are a cancer that is spreading and is threatening the entire Islamic world.”
“The war is open until Israel ceases to exist and until the last Jew in the world is eliminated.”
“The children are the holy martyrs of tomorrow.”

And it’s making me high and fly
I know where to go and I’m coming now
ואולי זה כמעט, זה קרוב Ve’ulai ze kim’at, ze karov And maybe it’s almost, it’s close
עכשיו בא תורו של הרגע הטוב Achshav ba toro shel harega hatov Now comes the turn of the good moment

Israel was the first country in the world to send aid to Haiti after the earthquake. An impressive mass of goods, people and emergency facilities was sent to the Caribbean island after the natural disaster. It happened also with the tsunami in Asia, when Israel was among the most generous countries. And now again, when disaster struck in Japan, Israel was the first to dispatch a field hospital to assist in the recovery effort.
