ARAB-NAZISM & GENOCIDE = ROOTS OF 'APARTHEID-COMPARISON' THESIS
Ahmad shukairy Arab-nazi has invented the apartheid slur (upon pluralistic democratic Israel. Where Arabs are not only treated equal in all aspects, but often enjoy more rights than Jews, in 'affirmative action' and other preferential treatments. [<A HREF="http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Articles/Article.aspx/844">"Affirmative Action?" the Israeli Edition - Op-Eds - Israel National News, 7 Feb 2002] ["Israel: The Jewish affirmative action state," by Ariel Natan Pasko, IsraelInsider, July 1, 2005] [Israel Government Action in the Arab Sector', Jewsh Virtual Library, February 21, 2000)] ["Israel National Radio - Zionist Affirmative Action." 12/7/2010 3:58:00 PM. A7 Radio's "Behind the Scene" with David Bedein.

Globes]["Zionism as Affirmative Action" - The Israel Report April 2001] [2000 students owe university place to affirmative action - Haaretz. 19 Nov 2009]), six years before the so-called "occupation" excuse came about) in 1961. [Middle East Record Volume 2, 1961 By Yitzhak Oron, Ed., Page 188] He helped the (ally of Adolf Hitler, al-Husseini, better known as the) Mufti and aided in extermination of Jews in WW2, according to testimony in Congress. [Congressional record: proceedings and debates of the United States Congress: Volume 113, Part 12 - United States. Congress - Govt. Print. Off., 1967 - Page A-525]. The same Shukairy admitted in 1956 that so-called "Palestine" is NOTHING but a part of Syria... [United Nations review: Volume 3 - United Nations. Dept. of Public Information, United Nations. Office of Public Information - 1957 - Page 8] [Politics, lies, and videotape: 3,000 questions and answers on the Mideast crisis - Page 392 - Yitschak Ben Gad - SP Books, 1991 - 479 pages] Then, in 1963, he changed his mind, and the 'new nationalism' is 'conveniently' used -since then- by Arab immigrants' children who call themselves as "Palestinians" [mainly] since about that same year. He's more famous for coining the Palestine Liberation Organization's genocide slogan 'Drive the Jews into the Sea' [America's Two Holy Wars - John Tyler - Page 246]. And if all that wasn't enough, he also identified himself with Nazi groups in 1962. [The re-emergence of fascism - by Dennis Eisenberg, MacGibbon & Kee, 1967, 348 Pages - Page 322]
ARAB MUSLIM APARTHEID
All the while, the Arab world and the Muslim world are the largest practitioners of racial and religious apartheid. Where not one minority has equal rights with the governing power. Not to mention the still-practiced racist slavery on Asians and on blacks by Arabs. And the ethnic cleansing by the Arab world including by anti-Christian, anti-Jewish Arab-Islamic-Apartheid-Palestine.
To quote from books: The Islamic world "the world's largest practitioner of both religious and gender apartheid." [Israel: And the Palestinian Nightmare - Page 158 - Ze'ev Shemer - 2010 - 244 pages] "The Islamic culture of "religious intolerance, economic backwardness, gender apartheid, muzzled press, militarism, terrorism." [A theory of international terrorism: understanding Islamic militancy - Page 153 - L. Ali Khan - 2006 - 371 pages] The "antisemitism of the Arab world and the Muslim world." The racist "long history of oppression against minorities in Arab countries." [U.S. news & world report: Volume 131, Issues 8-18 - U.S. News Pub. Corp., 2001 - Page 120] ["Beware Palestinian apartheid," 'Op-ed: Palestinian leader Abbas seeks to adopt racist policy based on ethnic cleansing of Jews.' Jonathan Dahoah Halevi, Ynet, 08.04.10] [<A href="http://www.israelbehindthenews.com/bin/content.cgi?ID=3918&q=1">The Real Apartheid State, by David Bedein, 2011</A>]
PALLYWOOD
The lying Arab-Palestinian Goliath machine not only lies and denies Israel's extending more rights to Arabs than to Jews (like favortism in court, affirmative action and exemption from military service), but also fabricates "memorandums" like a supposed speech by N. Mandela which was actually written by an Arab residing in the Netherland... The Arab lobby also aided J. Carter (the one who wrote a hate book in 2006 with almost an exact title of that by Palestinian-Arab M. Bishara in 2002), who uttered anti-Jewish bigoted statements like: 'stating Freeman's recommendations for council board members contained "too many Jews."' [Living in the Times of the Signs - Page 219 - David R. Barnhart - 2007 - 492 pages]
AIM
The racist Arab "apartheid" slander campaign (like infamous 'apartheid week') has been rocked by usual anti-Jewish hatred outbursts, including calls to kill Jews, Swastikas, etc. [M. Ignatieff: Israel Apartheid Week and CUPE Ontario's anti-Israel posturing should be condemned." National Post, March 05, 2009] [Swastikas and Ku Klux Klan Symbols during 'Apartheid Week..." Israel National News, 3 Mar 2010]

BTW
Anti Semitism always refered to exclusively anti-Jewish bigotry [see: (renowned historian and scholar) Bernard Lewis, "Semites and Antisemites: An Inquiry into Conflict and Prejudice," New York: WW Norton, 1986], including by: Arab anti-Jewish racism and Islamic anti-Jewish intolerance which is the thrust of the "conflict" that began by al-Husseini the Mufti in the 1920s.
From the Wall Street Journal, "The Mufti of Berlin" - September, 2009: 'Arab-Nazi collaboration is a taboo topic in the West. ...venom pioneered by the mufti as do Islamic hate preachers around the world. Muslim Judeophobia is notas is commonly claimeda reaction to the Mideast conflict but one of its main "root causes." It has been fueling Arab rejection of a Jewish state long before Israel's creation.'
Except, of course, black South Africans didn't have a 1,300 year history of repressing white Boers, nor were they offered their own state on numerous occasions and refused, nor were they using their own women and children to blow up other women and children, ad nauseum.
The Arab Palestinian's best options are that the other Arab countries democratize, and that the average Arab Palestinian reject the extremist groups that keep their country poor and in a constant state of low grade war. Until then, as ugly as it can be, the current conditions will stay in place.
Just take care to edit the beginning: Islam, Christianity, and Judaism as the three 'largest' world religions.
In a time where the situation for Palestinians is improving, here you are trying to drag them down, sickening.
Nice propaganda piece. Virtually all of those "side by side" scenes can be done for virtually every modern conflict, heck I could spend a few hours going around council estates in England getting similar scenes.
Be sure to mention how "collaborating" with Israel or selling land to a Jew gets you executed by Palestinians. Be sure to mention how both Hamas and the "moderate" PA have said no Jew will live in a Palestinian state--this is whilst Jews and Arabs generally live well together in Israel, yeah, real nice apartheid you've got there.
Don't forget to mention how many Arab critics of Israel actually received their education in Israel because you know, that's another great example of apartheid.
Don't forget to mention the motivations behind Israel's "apartheid" policies e.g. terrorism because defending yourself from decades of terrorism is totally the same as brutalizing a countries based on your perceived racial superiority.
Don't forget to mention how in 1948 a proposition to share the land was accepted by the "apartheid" Jews whilst the "innocent" Arabs rejected it in favor of destroying the Jewish state and taking Palestine in its entirety.
Don't forget to mention the non-existance right of return and compensation Jews received when they fled/were expelled from Arab countries.
Don't forget to mention how the Arab countries have policies which prevent naturalization, don't forget to mention how Arab countries have killed more Palestinians than Israel has.
God, you're vile.
Yes, be sure, as Nillice advises, to mention how both Hamas and the "moderate" PA have said no Jew will live in a Palestinian state--this is whilst Jews and Arabs generally live well together in Israel. That says it all, really.
"pluralistic democratic Israel."
Fuck you.
Discrimination in housing, education, employment is a constant experience for Palestinians who live in Israel. Palestinians find no justice in Israel courts. Palestinians remain in Israel because it is their home but each year Israel makes it harder for them to remain.

If you are the recipient of abuse, disrespectful treatment and discrimination from a specified source than that bad treatment governs your relationship. If the source wants an improved relationship with the recipient than all bad behavior ends, there's improvement in communicating in order to build trust. If the source of the bad treatment is not interested in improved relations than the relationship will always be sour. Apartheid can only come about when the source of the bad treatment desires an improved relationship and open the lines of communication in order to build trust with the recipient.
Ruth, that's a process called gentrification. There is no country in the world free of that economic pressure for desirable land by people with the money to force the issue.
It has nothing to do with apartheid.
I'm glad to see this kind of project pisses off so many Zionists. It entices me to give them more money.
Nice one, there is actually some good facts on this blog some of my friends may find this worthwhile, will send a link, thanks.Pandora
i don't like the fact that the video overlooks a cultural heritage that has always included the land of israel as an important part of what it means to be a jew. that omission is unfair, and makes it appear that the jews only believe israel to be important because of a law enacted in the just a few decades ago. the premise of the video is deeply flawed, if not deliberately misleading.
This videos fails to mention that we would never have gotten to this place if:
1. The Arab nation had excepted in 1947 the UN's 181 resolution.
(http://www.mfa.gov.il/MFA/Peace%20Process/Guide%20to%20the%20Peace%20Process/UN%20General%20Assembly%20Resolution%20181)
2. If in in 1967 the Arab nations would have decided to try negotiate a peace process instead of their infamous "Three no's" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khartoum_Resolution)
3. That these blockades were erected after a series of blood terrorist attacks.
And a small historical note:
This region was called Palestine by the Romans who, after they crushed the Jewish revolt, renamed the region in an attempt to wipe out it's Jewish heritage.
