Home Safe But Still A Liar! Obama Fears Israel But Bows To Russia!


===
I listened on and off to the Benghazi Hearings and conclude Hilarious did a masterful job of defending herself. Is she basically a liar? In my opinion the answer is yes. I still maintain she is a person who places herself above the law, is better than those she claims to serve and has perfected her ability to obfuscate her involvement..

She takes responsibility but that boils down to meaningless mutterings. It is evident the killing of four Americans was the result of a pre-planned terrorist attack and not the consequence of a video as claimed by Obama who sought to stave off criticism during his campaign claiming al Qaeda was no more.

Yesterday a Master Sargeant was killed in Afghanistan but since Obama did not authorize  his death, defending himself, was deemed non-combat. Yet, his family will receive all the benefits of his having been in a battle and was posthumously awarded a medal only given during battle. Semantics and twisting the meaning of words has been elevated to an art form. Remember, is is is?

Hillarious knew it was a planned attack, e mailed her daughter it was but played along as a good soldier. Thus, she is either untrustworthy or wished to be Sec.of State at all cost.  Honorable people, who are unwilling to drink Kool Aid, would submit their resignation stating they cannot support a lie.

Sum it up, she is going to be knighted by the Demwits and will be their nominee because winning is more important to them than offering a candidate possessing integrity..  It is possible she might ask Biden to be her V.P in order to buy some peace with the Obama crowd but that would be a long shot.

It also became evident,  Demwits on the committee were there to serve their own and Hillarious' presidential aspirations. They did not lift a finger to seek any truths.  What I found downright humorous is when Rep. Cummings talked about the cost of the hearing.  When a Demwit is concerned about the cost of anything you know they are not serious.

Hillarious also told us she lost more sleep than anyone. The four killed, because of incompetence and indifference, lost their lives and that adds up probably longer than her lost sleep. Also, I doubt she grieved more than the families of the deserted.

I still believe the Clinton Foundation serves their narrow interests, was established to perpetuate their power at taxpayer expense and exists to collect money from wealthy Arab  potentates and lesser wealthy mortals in order to continue their sleazy activities. What they did or failed to do after Bill's commitment in Haiti is among the most typical.

It still  remains for the FBI to determine Hillarious' fate.
===
Obamacare continues to prove a financial flop but what different does it make. Pigeons are beginning to come home to roost. (See 1 below.)
===
Obama was fearful Israel would usurp our Middle East influence so he spied on Israel.  Meanwhile, he allowed Putin to do so without lifting a finger. (See 2, 2a and 2b below.)
===
And so it goes.

When it comes to lying Obama, the Clinton's and Palestinians are all in the same tub. (See 3 below.)

1)- A New Attack on Health-Care Reality

Liberals rewrite the history of the failing ObamaCare co-ops.

                                                

The cataract of insurance co-op failures—nine down, 14 to go—has liberals defensive over ObamaCare. Most amusing is their attempt to blame this debacle conceived by liberals and perpetrated by liberals on, yes, Republicans.

The federally sponsored co-ops were designed as an alternative to for-profit insurers, and they’re now going insolvent one by one. The emerging sentimental narrative is that a “Republican filibuster” in the Senate in 2009-10 prevented Democrats from adopting the White House’s preferred public option, and therefore naturally the inferior co-ops were bound to have problems.

The apologists pushing this excuse would be more convincing if they weren’t rewriting the recent past that everybody remembers. The public option—Medicaid for all—was supposed to be an opening wedge for single-payer health care. But the idea didn’t die because of Republicans, who were shut out of four of the five committees that wrote ObamaCare and 
with merely 40 Senators were helpless to stop so much as a swinging door..

Divisions among Democrats doomed the public option, and the party’s now-extinct moderates protested precisely because they understood the public option’s radicalism. Their opposition provoked a brutal internal counterattack from progressives.

In summer 2009 President Obama’s then-political arm, Organizing for America, even ran political ads accusing troublesome swing-state Senators of being on the take from the insurance lobby. The targets included Arkansas ( Blanche Lincoln and Mark Pryor), Indiana ( Evan Bayh), Florida ( Bill Nelson), Louisiana ( Mary Landrieu) and Nebraska ( Ben Nelson).

Similar treatment had the now nearly defunct Blue Dog caucus in the House all but hiring food tasters. As Massachusetts Democrat Barney Frank put it at the time: “We just don’t have the votes for it. I wish we did. I think if we had a good public option it would lead to single payer.”

As for the ex post facto alibi that the public option would have been stronger than the co-ops, this is the ObamaCare version of the line that communism can’t be judged because it’s never been tried. Imagine if this Administration—which spent $1.7 billion on a calamity of a website—had to start up and manage the health insurance equivalent of a state-run oil company. Moderate Democrats ultimately demanded that the public option be sent to a death panel in exchange for their support for the rest of ObamaCare, which in turn ended their careers, and the co-ops were a consolation prize for the left.

We rehearse this history because the co-ops were still intended to be a competitive threat to private insurance. The public option was supposed to use its government subsidy to drive out private competitors and force hospitals and doctors to accept below-cost price controls. The co-ops attempted a junior-league version of the same strategy, underpricing their coverage to gain market share, and then planned on taking advantage of their implicit taxpayer backstop.

If liberals want to blame Republicans for defunding this anticipated bailout in last year’s budget deal, at least that would be true. But maybe first they should account for the $928.8 million in federal “seed money” that has been wasted so far, or why only one of the surviving co-ops is not running at a financial loss.

Spy vs. Spy: Inside the Fraying U.S.-Israel Ties

Distrust set allies to snoop on each other after split over Iran nuclear deal; each kept secrets


By Adam Entous

The U.S. closely monitored Israel’s military bases and eavesdropped on secret communications in 2012, fearing its longtime ally might try to carry out a strike on Fordow, Iran’s most heavily fortified nuclear facility.
Nerves frayed at the White House after senior officials learned Israeli aircraft had flown in and out of Iran in what some believed was a dry run for a commando raid on the site. Worried that Israel might ignite a regional war, the White House sent a second aircraft carrier to the region and readied attack aircraft, a senior U.S. official said, “in case all hell broke loose.”
The two countries, nursing a mutual distrust, each had something to hide. U.S. officials hoped to restrain Israel long enough to advance negotiations on a nuclear deal with Iran that the U.S. had launched in secret. U.S. officials saw Israel’s strike preparations as an attempt to usurp American foreign policy. 
Instead of talking to each other, the allies kept their intentions secret. To figure out what they weren’t being told, they turned to their spy agencies to fill gaps. They employed deception, not only against Iran, but against each other. After working in concert for nearly a decade to keep Iran from an atomic bomb, the U.S. and Israel split over the best means: diplomacy, covert action or military strikes. 
Personal strains between President Barack Obama and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu erupted at their first Oval Office meeting in 2009, and an accumulation of grievances in the years since plunged relations between the two countries into crisis.
This Wall Street Journal account of the souring of U.S.-Israel relations over Iran is based on interviews with nearly two dozen current and former senior U.S. and Israeli officials.
U.S. and Israeli officials say they want to rebuild trust but acknowledge it won’t be easy. Mr. Netanyahu reserves the right to continue covert action against Iran’s nuclear program, said current and former Israeli officials, which could put the spy services of the U.S. and Israel on a collision course.
A shaky start
Messrs. Obama and Netanyahu shared common ground on Iran when they first met in 2007. Mr. Netanyahu, then the leader of Israel’s opposition party, the right-wing Likud, discussed with Mr. Obama, a Democratic senator, how to discourage international investment in Iran’s energy sector. Afterward, Mr. Obama introduced legislation to that end. 
Suspicions grew during the 2008 presidential race after Mr. Netanyahu spoke with some congressional Republicans who described Mr. Obama as pro-Arab, Israeli officials said. The content of the conversations later found its way back to the White House, senior Obama administration officials said.
Soon after taking office in January 2009, Mr. Obama took steps to allay Israeli concerns, including instructing the Pentagon to develop military options against Iran’s Fordow facility, which was built into a mountain. The president also embraced an existing campaign of covert action against Iran, expanding cooperation between the Central Intelligence Agency and Mossad, the Israeli spy agency. 
Mossad leaders compared the covert campaign to a 10-floor building: The higher the floor, they said, the more invasive the operation. CIA and Mossad worked together on operations on the lower floors. But the Americans made clear they had no interest in moving higher—Israeli proposals to bring down Iran’s financial system, for example, or even its regime.
Some covert operations were run unilaterally by Mossad, such as the assassination of Iranian nuclear scientists, according to U.S. officials.
The first Oval Office meeting between Messrs. Obama and Netanyahu, in May 2009—weeks after Mr. Netanyahu became prime minister—was difficult for both sides. After the meeting, Mr. Obama’s aides called Ron Dermer, Mr. Netanyahu’s adviser, to coordinate their statements. Mr. Dermer told them it was too late; Mr. Netanyahu was already briefing reporters. “We kind of looked at each other and said, ‘I guess we’re not coordinating our messages,’ ” said Tommy Vietor, a former administration official who was there.
In 2010, the risk of covert action became clear. A computer virus dubbed Stuxnet, deployed jointly by the U.S. and Israel to destroy Iranian centrifuges used to process uranium, had inadvertently spread across the Internet. The Israelis wanted to launch cyberattacks against a range of Iranian institutions, according to U.S. officials. But the breach made Mr. Obama more cautious, officials said, for fear of triggering Iranian retaliation, or damaging the global economy if a virus spread uncontrollably. 
Israel questioned whether its covert operations were enough, said aides to Mr. Netanyahu. Stuxnet had only temporarily slowed Tehran’s progress. “Cyber and other covert operations had their inherent limitations,” a senior Israeli official said, “and we reached those limitations.”
Mr. Netanyahu pivoted toward a military strike, raising anxiety levels in the White House. 
The U.S. Air Force analyzed the arms and aircraft needed to destroy Iran’s nuclear facilities and concluded Israel didn’t have the right equipment. The U.S. shared the findings, in part, to steer the Israelis from a military strike. 
The Israelis weren’t persuaded and briefed the U.S. on an attack plan: Cargo planes would land in Iran with Israeli commandos on board who would “blow the doors, and go in through the porch entrance” of Fordow, a senior U.S. official said. The Israelis planned to sabotage the nuclear facility from inside.
Pentagon officials thought it was a suicide mission. They pressed the Israelis to give the U.S. advance warning. The Israelis were noncommittal.
“Whether this was all an effort to try to pressure Obama, or whether Israel was really getting close to a decision, I don’t know,” said Michéle Flournoy, who at the time was undersecretary of defense for policy.
Mr. Obama, meanwhile, was moving toward diplomacy. In December 2011, the White House secretly used then-Sen. John Kerry to sound out Omani leaders about opening a back channel to the Iranians.
At the same time, the White House pressed the Israelis to scale back their assassination campaign and turned down their requests for more aggressive covert measures, U.S. officials said.
The president spoke publicly about his willingness to use force as a last resort to prevent Iran from getting a nuclear weapon—“I don’t bluff,” Mr. Obama said in March 2012—but some of Mr. Netanyahu’s advisers weren’t convinced.
In early 2012, U.S. spy agencies told the White House about a flurry of meetings that Mr. Netanyahu convened with top security advisers. The meetings covered everything from mission logistics to the political implications of a military strike, Israeli officials said.
Warning signs
U.S. spy agencies stepped up satellite surveillance of Israeli aircraft movements. They detected when Israeli pilots were put on alert and identified moonless nights, which would give the Israelis better cover for an attack. They watched the Israelis practice strike missions and learned they were probing Iran’s air defenses, looking for ways to fly in undetected, U.S. officials said. 
New intelligence poured in every day, much of it fragmentary or so highly classified that few U.S. officials had a complete picture. Officials now say many jumped to the mistaken conclusion that the Israelis had made a dry run.
At the time, concern and confusion over Israel’s intentions added to the sense of urgency inside the White House for a diplomatic solution.
The White House decided to keep Mr. Netanyahu in the dark about the secret Iran talks, believing he would leak word to sabotage them. There was little goodwill for Mr. Netanyahu among Mr. Obama’s aides who perceived the prime minister as supportive of Republican challenger Mitt Romney in the 2012 campaign. 
Mr. Netanyahu would get briefed on the talks, White House officials concluded, only if it looked like a deal could be reached.
The first secret meeting between U.S. and Iranian negotiators, held in July 2012, was a bust. But “nobody was willing to throw it overboard by greenlighting Israeli strikes just when the process was getting started,” a former senior Obama administration official said.
Israeli officials approached their U.S. counterparts over the summer about obtaining military hardware useful for a strike, U.S. officials said.
At the top of the list were V-22 Ospreys, aircraft that take off and land like helicopters but fly like fixed-wing planes. Ospreys don’t need runways, making them ideal for dropping commandos behind enemy lines.
The Israelis also sounded out officials about obtaining the Massive Ordnance Penetrator, the U.S. military’s 30,000-pound bunker-busting bomb, which was designed to destroy Fordow.
Mr. Netanyahu wanted “somebody in the administration to show acquiescence, if not approval” for a military strike, said Gary Samore, who served for four years as Mr. Obama’s White House coordinator for arms control and weapons of mass destruction. “The message from the Obama administration was: ‘We think this is a big mistake.’ ” 
White House officials decided not to provide the equipment.
Messrs. Obama and Netanyahu spoke in September 2012, and Mr. Obama emerged convinced Israel wouldn’t strike on the eve of the U.S. presidential election. 
By the following spring, senior U.S. officials concluded the Israelis weren’t serious about a commando raid on Fordow and may have been bluffing. When the U.S. offered to sell the Ospreys, Israel said it didn’t have the money.
Former Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak, who championed a strike, said Mr. Netanyahu had come close to approving a military operation against Iran. But Israel’s military chiefs and cabinet members were reluctant, according to Israeli officials.
While keeping the Omani talks secret, U.S. officials briefed the Israelis on the parallel international negotiations between Iran and major world powers under way in early 2013. Those talks, which made little headway, were led on the U.S. side by State Department diplomat Wendy Sherman.
Robert Einhorn, at the time an arms control adviser at the State Department, said that during the briefings, Mr. Netanyahu’s advisers wouldn’t say what concessions they could live with. “It made us feel like nothing was going to be good enough for them,” Mr. Einhorn said.
U.S. spy agencies were monitoring Israeli communications to see if the Israelis had caught wind of the secret talks. In September 2013, the U.S. learned the answer. 
Yaakov Amidror, Mr. Netanyahu’s national security adviser at the time, had come to Washington in advance of a Sept. 30 meeting between Messrs. Netanyahu and Obama. 
On Sept. 27, Mr. Amidror huddled with White House national security adviser Susan Rice in her office when she told him that Mr. Obama was on the phone in a groundbreaking call with Iran’s president, Hassan Rouhani.
Mr. Amidror had his own surprise. During a separate meeting in the Roosevelt Room, he told several of Mr. Obama’s top advisers that Israel had identified the tail numbers of the unmarked U.S. government planes that ferried negotiators to Muscat, Oman, the site of the secret talks, U.S. officials said. 
Mr. Amidror, who declined to comment on the White House discussions, said that it was insulting for Obama administration officials to think “they could go to Oman without taking our intelligence capabilities into account.” He called the decision to hide the Iran talks from Israel a big mistake.
U.S. officials said they were getting ready to tell the Israelis about the talks, which advanced only after Mr. Rouhani came to office. During the Sept. 30 meeting with Mr. Netanyahu, the president acknowledged the secret negotiations. The secrecy cemented Israel’s distrust of Mr. Obama’s intentions, Israeli officials said.
Mr. Samore, the former White House official, said he believed it was a mistake to keep Israel in the dark for so long. Mr. Einhorn said: “The lack of early transparency reinforced Israel’s suspicions and had an outsize negative impact on Israeli thinking about the talks.”
Israel pushed for the U.S. to be more open about the Iran negotiations. Ms. Rice, however, pulled back on consultations with her new Israeli counterpart, Yossi Cohen, who took over as Mr. Netanyahu’s national security adviser, according to U.S. and Israeli officials.
In exchanges with the White House, U.S. officials said, Mr. Cohen wouldn’t budge from demanding Iran give up its centrifuges and uranium-enrichment program. Israeli officials said they feared any deviation would be taken by the U.S. as a green light for more concessions.
In one meeting, Mr. Cohen indicated Mr. Netanyahu could accept a deal allowing Iran to keep thousands of centrifuges, U.S. officials said. Soon after, Mr. Cohen called to say he had misspoken. Neither side was prepared to divulge their bottom line.
In November 2013, when the interim agreement was announced, Mr. Samore was in Israel, where, he said, the Israelis “felt blindsided” by the terms. U.S. officials said the details came together so quickly that Ms. Sherman and her team didn’t have enough time to convey them all. Israeli officials said the Americans intentionally withheld information to prevent them from influencing the outcome. 
Listening in
As talks began in 2014 on a final accord, U.S. intelligence agencies alerted White House officials that Israelis were spying on the negotiations. Israel denied any espionage against the U.S. Israeli officials said they could learn details, in part, by spying on Iran, an explanation U.S. officials didn’t believe.
Earlier this year, U.S. officials clamped down on what they shared with Israel about the talks after, they allege, Mr. Netanyahu’s aides leaked confidential information about the emerging deal.
When U.S. officials confronted the Israelis over the matter in a meeting, Israel’s then-minister of intelligence said he didn’t disclose anything from Washington’s briefings. The information, the minister said, came from “other means,” according to meeting participants.
Ms. Sherman told Mr. Cohen, Israel’s national security adviser: “You’re putting us in a very difficult position. We understand that you will find out what you can find out by your own means. But how can we tell you every single last thing when we know you’re going to use it against us?” according to U.S. officials who were there.
Mr. Netanyahu turned to congressional Republicans, one of his remaining allies with the power to affect the deal, Israeli officials said, but he couldn’t muster enough votes to block it. 
U.S. officials now pledge to work closely with their Israeli counterparts to monitor Iran’s compliance with the international agreement. 
But it is unclear how the White House will respond to any covert Israeli actions against Iran’s nuclear program, which current and former Israeli officials said were imperative to safeguard their country. 
One clause in the agreement says the major powers will help the Iranians secure their facilities against sabotage. State Department officials said the clause wouldn’t protect Iranian nuclear sites from Israel.
Michael Hayden, a former director of the CIA, said the U.S. and Israel could nonetheless end up at odds. 
“If we become aware of any Israeli efforts, do we have a duty to warn Iran?” Mr. Hayden said. “Given the intimacy of the U.S.-Israeli relationship, it’s going to be more complicated than ever.”

Putin marches, Obama watches



Guess who just popped up in the Kremlin? Bashar al-Assad, Syrian dictator and destroyer, now Vladimir Putin’s newest pet. After four years holed up in Damascus, Assad was summoned to Russia to bend a knee to Putin, show the world that today Middle East questions get settled not in Washington but in Moscow, and officially bless the Russian-led four-nation takeover of Syria now underway.

Does the bewildered Obama administration finally understand what Russia is up to?

President Obama says Russia is doomed to fail in the Syrian quagmire. But Russia is not trying to reconquer the country for Assad. It is consolidating a rump Syrian state in the roughly 20 percentof the country he now controls, the Alawite areas stretching north and west from Damascus through Latakia and encompassing the Russian naval base at Tartus.

It’s a partition. It will leave the Islamic State in control in the interior north and east. Why is this doomed to failure?

Putin’s larger strategy is also obvious. He is not reconstructing the old Soviet empire. That’s too large a task. But he is rebuilding and reasserting Russia’s ability to project power beyond its borders. Annexing Crimea restores to the motherland full control of the warm-water Black Sea port that Russia has coveted since Peter the Great. Shoring up a rump Alawite state secures Russia’s naval and air bases in the eastern Mediterranean. Add to that Russia’s launching of advanced cruise missiles from warships in the Caspian Sea to strike Syrian rebels 900 miles away and you have the most impressive display of Russian military reach since the Cold War.

For Obama, of course, these things don’t matter. “In today’s world,” he told the U.N. last month, “the measure of strength is no longer defined by the control of territory.” That he clearly believes this fantasy was demonstrated by his total abandonment of Iraq, forfeiting U.S. bases from which we could have projected power in the region (most notably preventing, through control of Iraqi airspace, the Iranian rearming and reinforcement of Assad’s weakening regime).

While Obama counts on the arc of the moral universe bending toward justice, Putin acts. As soon as the ink was dry on the Iran nuclear deal, Iran’s Maj. Gen. Qasem Soleimani flew to Moscow (a sanctions violation that we blithely ignored) to plan the multinational Syria campaign he is now directing. His Shiite expeditionary force is comprised of Iranian Revolutionary Guards, Iraqi Shiite militias and Lebanese Hezbollah fighting under the cover of Russian airpower.

They are pounding non-Islamic State rebels, many equipped, trained and allegedly supported by the U.S. and Obama’s vaunted 60-nation coalition. What a comfort to be pulverized by 60 to 90 Russian airstrikes each day but to know that Belgium is with you.

The immediate Russian objective is to retake Aleppo, the eastern part of which is the rebels’ last remaining urban stronghold.

Russia is not fighting the Islamic State. On the contrary. Its attacks on the anti-government, anti-Islamic State rebels have allowed the Islamic State to expand, capturing rebel-held villages north of Aleppo, even as the Shiite expeditionary force approaches from the south.

Apart from the wreckage to Obama’s dreams of a “reset” with Russia, think of how these advances mock Obama’s dreams for Iran, namely that the nuclear deal would moderate Iranian behavior.

What has happened since the signing of the deal in July? Iran convicts an American journalist , contemptuously refusing to offer even the most minimal humanitarian gesture. Iran brazenly tests a nuclear-capable ballistic missile that our own U.N. ambassador said violates Security Council resolutions. And now Iran’s most notorious Revolutionary Guard commander takes control of a pan-Shiite army trying to decimate our remaining allies in the Syrian civil war.

Obama’s response to all this? Nothing. He has washed his hands of the region, still the center of world oil production and trade, and still the world’s most volatile region, seething with virulent jihadism ready for export. When you call something a quagmire you have told the world that you’re out and staying out. Russia and Iran will have their way.

“60 Minutes” asked Obama: Are you concerned about yielding leadership to Russia? Obama responded dismissively: Propping up a weak ally is not leadership. I’m leading the world on climate change.
Upon hearing that, anyone in any conflict anywhere who has put his trust in the United States should start packing his bags for Germany.



2b)  Crazy like a fox

Caroline B. Glick

By Caroline B. Glick




Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is crazy like a fox.

Netanyahu's assertion on Tuesday before the World Zionist Congress that the founder of the Palestinian people, Haj Amin al-Husseini, convinced Adolf Hitler to eradicate rather than expel the Jews of Europe was an overstatement of Husseini's role.
No, the Holocaust was not Husseini's idea.

But he was a partner in perpetrating and promoting it. He also made it inevitable.

As I detailed in my book The Israeli Solution: A One-State Plan for Peace in the Middle East, during the course of Husseini's meeting with Hitler in Berlin in November 1941, Hitler told the Arab leader of his plan to eradicate European Jewry.

Husseini told Hitler that he would support the Nazis, and rally the Arab world to their side, if Hitler agreed to two conditions: that Hitler support his bid to rule over a postwar Arab state comprised of present-day Iraq, Syria, Jordan, Lebanon and Israel; and that Hitler support the genocide of Middle Eastern Jewry.

As both the official Nazi record and Husseini's summary of the meeting in his diary report, Hitler accepted Husseini's demands.
And it makes sense that he did.

Husseini proved his loyalty to the Nazis long before he arrived in Berlin. His romance with them began with Hitler's election victory in 1933. From then on, Husseini's followers in Mandatory Palestine greeted one another with the Nazi salute. Swastikas festooned their towns. The Nazis began directly funding Husseini's terror war against the Jews of Israel and British Mandatory officials in 1937.

In 1937, the British forced Husseini to flee the country. In 1941, he organized and incited a pro-Nazi military coup in Iraq. The British were forced to invade Iraq in response to the coup.

Husseini then fled to Rome where he met with Mussolini and went on the Berlin, where he remained for the duration of the war.
As the grand mufti of Jerusalem, Husseini invented and shaped the Palestinian national ethos in a manner that aligned with his pathological hatred of the Jews. Rather than providing the Palestinian Arabs with a positive vision of a future state that would safeguard and cultivate them as a distinct Arab nation, he shaped Palestinian society as a wholly negative phenomenon. It was seeded in a hybrid hatred of Jews that fused Koranic hostility to Jews with racism-based annihilationist European anti-Semitism rooted in The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, which Husseini translated and published in Arabic.

The goal of Husseini's nationalist drive was not to form a Palestinian Arab state, but to prevent the establishment of a Jewish state and to annihilate all aspects of the Jewish national liberation movement through a campaign a terror and political warfare.
Husseini's goal of leading an Arab state that encompassed Iraq and the entire Levant shows that the founding father of the Palestinian national project did not view "Palestine" as a distinct territorial entity.

After Hitler agreed to both of Husseini's conditions, Husseini began his active collaboration in the Nazi war effort. He participated in the Holocaust directly. In 1943, he formed the SS Handschar Division comprised of Bosnian Muslims. His troops exterminated 90 percent of Bosnia's 14,000-member Jewish community.

Husseini used his position as well to scuttle British attempts to trade German prisoners of war for Jews. In one such documented episode, in 1943 Husseini appealed to SS commander Heinrich Himmler to cancel a deal to exchange 4,500 Jewish children and 500 Jewish adults from Hungary, Slovakia, Romania and Bulgaria to cancel the deal and send the Jews to Auschwitz.
Himmler bowed to his appeal. The Jews were sent to the gas chambers.
Husseini contributed to the Holocaust indirectly.

Beginning shortly after his meeting with Hitler and extending through the end of the war, Husseini broadcast regular programs to the Arab world on Nazi short wave radio in Arabic. In those broadcasts he engendered support for the Nazis and the extermination of world Jewry. Using the mix of Islamic Jew-hatred and European annihilationist anti-Semitism he had developed in Jerusalem, Husseini cultivated a culture of support for the annihilation of Jews and the destruction of the Jewish (then nascent) state in the Land of Israel. That culture, bred through those broadcasts heard regularly by millions throughout the entire Arab world, still holds today.

Husseini was indicted as a war criminal in Nuremberg. Rather than try him, the allies allowed him to flee to Egypt i
n 1946. There he was greeted as a war hero by King Farouk. It is true that Hitler didn't need Husseini to convince him to annihilate European Jewry. By the time Husseini arrived in Germany, the Nazis had already murdered a million Jews.

But Netanyahu's claim that Husseini made it impossible for Hitler to suffice with expelling the Jews from Europe is true. The only place that wanted the Jews of Europe was the nascent Jewish state in the Land of Israel.

Through his terror war against the Jews and the British Mandatory authorities, and through his incitement of pro-Nazi sentiment in Egypt, Iraq and the Levant, Husseini convinced the British to betray their legal obligation to allow free Jewish immigration to the Land of Israel and so closed off the Jews' last avenue of escape from Nazi-dominated Europe.

As Netanyahu said, Husseini is revered and glorified by the Palestinians. Yasser Arafat claimed that he was Husseini's political heir and blood relative as a means of legitimizing his claim to leadership over the Palestinians.
Hamas as well has invoked Husseini as its ideological founding father.

History in hand, it is time to return to Netanyahu, and his overstatement of Husseini's role in the Holocaust.
From the time of Husseini till today, propaganda and terror have been the Palestinians' weapons of choice in their war against the Jews. Internally lies are spread of nonexistent Jewish plots and imaginary acts of aggression, to incite and solicit the murder of Jews. Propaganda and lies are then used to glorify the murderers as heroes and martyrs.

Externally, the Palestinians spread lies about Palestinian victimhood at the hands of bloodthirsty Jewish settlers and security forces who seek to drive the Arabs from their homes. By casting themselves as victims to the outside world, the Palestinians ensure that Israeli responses to their acts of aggression are perceived as acts of aggression, which they are fully justified in attempting to defy through murderous rampages against Jews.

The Palestinians recognize that for their terror to be acceptable to the West, they must portray themselves as guileless victims. Hence, they repeatedly insist the absurd claim that terrorists who deliberately kill Jews by running them over, are really merely victims involved in traffic accidents. The Palestinian teenage girl who this week sought to infiltrate the community of Yitzhar with a carving knife, suffers from "sleepwalking."

These ridiculous lies are only credible in a world devoid of any historical knowledge of the Palestinians' 95-year history of aggression against the Jews. And so the Palestinians have invented a false history of their war against Israel in which thousands of years of Jewish history is blotted out, and thousands of years of Palestinian history have been invented out of whole cloth.
In this revised version of events, Husseini has been erased from history. His role in the Holocaust has been deleted. The fact that the goal of the Palestinian national movement from its inception has been to annihilate the Jewish state and that the annihilation of Israel remains its goal still today has similarly been washed out of the history books and the news pages.

To maintain this fictional account of current and historical events, the Palestinians depend on the collaboration of the Western media.

And with each passing year, that collaboration has grown more open, expansive and shameless.
Western reporting on the events of the day now are almost entirely devoid of any relationship to reality.

Consider just a few recent examples. CNN's report of the Palestinian arson assault on Joseph's Tomb in Nablus on October 16 contained no mention of the fact that the fire at the holy Jewish site was set by Palestinians. In the same report, the network stated, "In the past month, eight Israelis died in 30 attacks involving knives and other weapons."
As if fires set themselves and angry knives wander the streets.

MSNBC's reporter Ayman Mohyeldin was caught lying two weeks ago as he claimed that the knife-wielding Palestinian terrorist in the Old City of Jerusalem who was lunging toward security personnel as they killed him, was an unarmed, innocent bystander. As Mohyeldin spewed his lies, the video of the assault that clearly showed the terrorist wielding a knife was being broadcast to his viewers.

That embarrassment didn't stop MSNBC from maintaining the myth of Israeli aggression, however.

The next week, the network posted a graphic of British Mandatory Palestine from 1946 which it claimed was the State of Palestine in 1946. The graphic them purported to show how the Jews stole ever more Palestinian land in the years that followed. Although the network was forced to broadcast a retraction, the lie that Palestine once existed had already been told.

Then of course there was The New York Times with its stunning "background" piece purporting to provide its readers with historical context regarding the competing Israeli and Palestinian claims regarding the Temple Mount. The Times reported as fact the false claim that there is a debate among respected academics regarding whether the Jewish temples were actually located on the Temple Mount.

In other words, the Times unabashedly participated in the Palestinian project of rewriting history in a manner that erases Jewish history from the Jewish homeland.

Netanyahu recognizes that the media have sided with the Palestinians in their war to destroy Israel through a mix of terror and propaganda.

He knows that the only stories they will report on are stories with an anti-Israel angle. It is reasonable then to assume that he decided to use their embrace of every possible angle of attack as a means to get the truth out about the nature of the war.
By exaggerating Husseini's importance in the Holocaust, Netanyahu gave the media a means of attacking him. But by doing so, he forced the Times to report on the Palestinians' founding father's role in destroying European Jewry and his desire to carry out the Final Solution in the Middle East. They would have ignored the issue if Netanyahu had not exaggerated his actual role.
Due to his "gaffe," every Western media outlet reported on Husseini's actions. Some even mentioned that in his PhD dissertation, current Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas said the Holocaust was both a myth and a joint Zionist-Nazi project. For most Westerners, this is the first they've heard of the fact that the Palestinian's George Washington was a Nazi war criminal.

Like I said, crazy as a fox.

PA and Fatah lies: 
Israel is fabricating stabbing attacks,
planting knives at the crime scenes
after killing "innocent" Palestinians
  

Official PA TV: 
"The Israeli version is always fabricated and false...
They [the Israelis] have the knives ready in case they target someone"

by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik
A cartoon repeating the libel that Israel fabricates the many recent Palestinian stabbing attacks and even plants the knives as fake evidence at the scenes of the crimes appeared in both the official Palestinian Authority daily and on a Fatah website.
The cartoon claims that Israel victimizes Palestinians, framing them for the many recent stabbing attacks. A knife attached to the end of the rifle of an Israeli soldier cuts the hand of a Palestinian. The soldier withdraws the rifle, leaving the knife in the hand of the Palestinian, thus making it look like the Palestinian is the one attacking the soldier with the knife. The soldier then shouts: "Terrorist!" [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, and website of Fatah's Information and Culture Commission, Oct. 17, 2015]
Official PA TV hosts also repeated this, claiming that Israel places knives at the scene after Israel attacks innocent Palestinians in order to frame them for terror attacks:


Official PA TV host 1: "Yesterday [Oct. 12, 2015] was a sad and bloody day in occupied Jerusalem: 3 Martyrs were executed [by Israel] in cold blood (i.e., terrorists who murdered 3). The photos and videos posted by activists on social media showed the cruelty and racism of the occupation as it deals with [Palestinian] residents of Jerusalem. The pretext is ready [in advance], the Israeli media is ready [in advance], and the Israeli version, security-wise and politically, is ready [in advance]: a stabbing attempt... When the settler, the policeman, and the border policeman may suspect that they are trying to carry out a specific action, the shooting and the Israeli version are ready [in advance]."

Official PA TV host 2: "These are executions of [Arab] citizens. The Arab is constantly exposed to cold-blooded murder for no reason, only because he is an Arab resident of Jerusalem..."

Official PA TV host 1:"The Israeli version is always fabricated and false..."

Official PA TV host 2: "Yesterday it was clear in one of the videos. After the assassination of one of the Martyrs, they [the Israelis] asked about the knife: "Where is the knife?" There was a settler who pulled out a knife. They [the Israelis] have the knives ready in case they target someone. They have the knives ready."
[Official PA TV, Oct. 13, 2015]
Earlier this month, Abbas' Secretary-General of the PA Presidential Office Tayeb Abd Al-Rahim repeated the lie as well: 
"The Israeli right-wing government has brought the situation to the point of explosion, for more than one purpose. The first goal is an attempt to look as if it [Israel] is the victim rather than the hangman. They [the Israelis] falsify stabbings with knives and fabricate events, etc." 
[Official PA TV, Oct. 8, 2015]
Official PA TV recently broadcast footage showing weapons lying next to a terrorist who was shot and killed following an attack in which he had stabbed an Israeli border policeman, stolen his gun, and attempted to shoot a second policeman. PA TV News used this footage to reiterate the libel that Israel "fakes evidence" as a pretext to kill Palestinians. "The Zionists," said the TV reporter, are "skillful directors":


Warning: Graphic images
Official PA TV News reporter: "The occupation police is executing our children and youth in cold blood just because it suspects them. Then it falsely accuses them and fakes [evidence] to justify its crimes... Scenes of children being killed due to mere suspicion, painful scenes which even Hollywood's greatest directors have trouble directing, the Zionists direct skillfully. All they have to do is to murder the victim. Whatever comes next is already there, except for the law that is absent."
[Official PA TV, Oct. 13, 2015]

Another cartoon published in official PA daily also reiterated the claim that Israel is using the claim of "stabbing attack" as an excuse to harm Palestinians. The drawing shows a man with blood on his hands saying to a parrot standing on the Facebook logo: 'Stabbing attack." The parrot repeats after him: "Stabbing attack, stabbing attack, stabbing attack." [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Oct. 15, 2015]    


In August, the official PA daily printed another cartoon, purporting that Israel is fabricating Palestinian stabbings. An Israeli soldier is sticking his rifle with a knife attached at the end into the belly of a Palestinian and saying: "I've caught you with a knife." [Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Aug. 20, 2015]

Several PA and Fatah leaders have promoted these false accusations against Israel:
Former PA Prime Minister, PLO Executive Committee member Ahmed Qurei "condemned the murder of the young Fadi Alloun" and "the killing of the young Muhannad Halabi." [WAFA (the official Palestinian news agency), Oct. 4, 2015] - Terrorist Halabi stabbed and murdered two Israelis in the Old City of Jerusalem and Alloun stabbed and injured one. (See more about the attacks below.) The PA Ministry of Foreign Affairs "strongly condemned the field executions being carried out by the occupation forces against children, youth, and young Palestinians," mentioning "the atrocious execution of the young person, Fadi Alloun," as one such "execution." [WAFA (the official Palestinian news agency), Oct.  4, 2015]
PLO Executive Committee member and Fatah Central Committee member Saeb Erekat also supported the false claim that terrorist stabber Alloun had been framed, and further claimed that Israel lied about female terrorist Israa Ja'abis who detonated a gas balloon in her car near Israeli police officers at a checkpoint near Ma'ale Adumim, a few kilometers east of Jerusalem, falsely claiming she tried to carry out a suicide attack. [Official PA TV, Oct. 13, 2015]
The official PA daily referred to Israel's shooting of 6 terrorists who all stabbed Israelis as "executions" of "Martyrs," and stated that Israel justifies these "executions" with a false accusation of "a stabbing attack":
"The [Israeli] excuse of a 'stabbing attack' is present at every execution the occupation soldiers are carrying out at the various checkpoints, and is presented on a 'platter of blood' immediately after they take out their targets."
[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Oct. 18, 2015]
Disregarding all Israeli terror victims, an op-ed in the official PA daily also claimed that Israel is fabricating all attacks since "ambiguity surrounds the stabbings which Israel is announcing" because "we haven't seen any injured Israeli." The writer even pretended that one of two terrorists who stabbed and seriously wounded a 13-year-old boy and a man had "died as a Martyr under unclear circumstances." "It is easy for a settler to shoot any Palestinian," he claimed, and "it is easy for a border policeman to throw a knife near the body of a young person after his cold-blooded murder and to claim a student was making a stabbing attempt." He ended his article claiming Israel fabricates most of the attacks:
"Most of the Israeli versions of stabbings are false and forged, and we can appeal the stabbing stories, since the Israeli government is exaggerating with lies and fabrications."
[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Oct. 13, 2015]
The following are longer excerpts of the reports and statements mentioned above:
Official PA TV portrays terrorist murderers as innocent victims killed by Israel - says Israel fabricates the attacks
Official PA TV host 1: "We will follow the atmosphere in the field, given the Israeli escalation [of violence] and attacks against [Arab] residents in all the areas, especially in occupied Jerusalem. Yesterday [Oct. 12, 2015] was a sad and bloody day in occupied Jerusalem: 3 Martyrs were executed [by Israel] in cold blood (i.e., terrorists who murdered 3). The photos and videos posted by activists on social media showed the cruelty and racism of the occupation as it deals with [Palestinian] residents of Jerusalem. The pretext is ready [in advance], the Israeli media is ready [in advance], and the Israeli version, security-wise and politically, is ready [in advance]: a stabbing attempt. There is [Israeli] security insanity and the madness of dealing with the [Arab] residents of Jerusalem with direct gunfire and the wounding of every [Arab] resident of Jerusalem. When the settler, the policeman, and the border policeman may suspect that they are trying to carry out a specific action, the shooting and the Israeli version are ready [in advance]."
Official PA TV host 2: "Execution based only on [suspecting] intention."
Official PA TV host 1: "An intention that only Allah knows."
Official PA TV host 2: "Anyway, in the end, these are executions of [Arab] citizens. The Arab is constantly exposed to cold-blooded murder for no reason, only because he is an Arab resident of Jerusalem..."
Official PA TV host 1:"The Israeli version is always fabricated and false. Yesterday morning at the Lions' Gate, Martyr Al-Khatib (i.e., terrorist who stabbed 1) was executed... The most recent Martyr, yesterday at a bus station, was also executed in cold blood..."
Official PA TV host 2: "Yesterday it was clear in one of the videos. After the assassination of one of the Martyrs, they [the Israelis] asked about the knife: "Where is the knife?" There was a settler who pulled out a knife. They [the Israelis] have the knives ready in case they target someone. They have the knives ready."
[Official PA TV, Oct. 13, 2015]
Pisgat Ze'ev stabbing attack - On Oct. 12, 2015, two Palestinian terrorists, Hassan Manasrah (15) and Ahmad Manasrah (13), stabbed Yossef Ben Shalom (21) in the Pisgat Ze'ev neighborhood of East Jerusalem, then repeatedly stabbed a 13-year-old boy (name undisclosed at time of writing) who was riding his bike. Hassan Manasrah was killed while fleeing the scene, and Ahmad Manasrah was shot by Israeli police and hospitalized. Both victims of the attack were seriously injured. The terrorists, who were cousins, came from the nearby Palestinian neighborhood of Beit Hanina.

Official PA TV News reporter: "In a fit of hysteria and madness of the occupation government against our defenseless youth, the occupation police is executing our children and youth in cold blood just because it suspects them. Then it falsely accuses them and fakes [evidence] to justify its crimes in the eyes of the world, and to present itself as a law-abiding country defending its threatened people... Scenes of children being killed due to mere suspicion, painful scenes which even Hollywood's greatest directors have trouble directing, the Zionists direct skillfully. All they have to do is to murder the victim. Whatever comes next is already there, except for the law that is absent."
[Official PA TV, Oct. 13, 2015]
Headline: "[PA] Foreign Ministry: 'The current escalation is a direct result of the Israeli attacks against the Al-Aqsa [Mosque]"

"The [PA] Foreign Ministry stated in a press release today [Oct. 4, 2015], Sunday, that the current escalation in the Palestinian territories is a direct result of the Israeli attacks against the Al-Aqsa Mosque...

Likewise, the ministry strongly condemned the field executions being carried out by the occupation forces against children, youth, and young Palestinians, the last of which was the atrocious execution of the young person, Fadi Alloun, from the village of Al-Issawiya in Jerusalem, who was murdered today in cold blood by the occupation's police while on his way to work in the early hours of the morning."
[WAFA (the official Palestinian news agency), Oct.  4, 2015]
Headline: "Qurei condemned the murder of the young Fadi Alloun"
"PLO Executive Committee member and Head of the Department for Jerusalem Affairs Ahmed Qurei condemned the murder of the young Jerusalemite Fadi Alloun by the Israeli occupation forces.
The young Alloun died as a Martyr (Shahid) after the occupation police fired ten bullets which penetrated his body in the Musrara area near the Damascus Gate in occupied Jerusalem, after a group of settlers chased him.
Likewise, Qurei condemned the killing of young Muhannad Halabi by the occupation police in Jerusalem yesterday [Oct. 3, 2015] evening."
[WAFA (the official Palestinian news agency), Oct. 4, 2015]
Fadi Alloun - 19-year-old Palestinian terrorist who stabbed and injured Israeli citizen Moshe Malka (15) near the Old City of Jerusalem on Oct. 3, 2015. Alloun fled and was shot and killed by Israeli police.
Muhannad Halabi - 19-year-old Palestinian terrorist who killed 2 Israelis, Rabbi Nehemiah Lavi and Aharon Bennett, and injured Bennett's wife, Adele, and their 2-year-old son in a stabbing attack in the Old City of Jerusalem on Oct. 3, 2015. Following the attack, he was shot and killed by Israeli security forces. Prior to his attack, in a post to his private Facebook page, the terrorist referred to recent terror attacks as part of a "third Intifada," and said that it was a response to Israel's actions at the Al-Aqsa Mosque and that the Palestinian people would not "succumb to humiliation." This is a reference to the PA libel that Israel is plotting to take over and destroy the Al-Aqsa Mosque and to the PA's portrayal of Jews praying on the Temple Mount as "an invasion of the Al-Aqsa Mosque."
Headline: "The occupation and settlers execute 5 [Palestinian] citizens - and a video refutes the allegations that there was a 'stabbing'"
  • "Hebron is afire after 3 executions of two young men and a young woman, and the settlers 'celebrate'
  • Mutaz Awisatwas shot in Jerusalem because he laughed and carried a backpack, and the accusation: 'suspicion'
  • The occupation closes the Qalandiya checkpoint after the young Omar Muhammad Al-Faqih from Katana died as a Martyr (Shahid)
  • UN official: 'The arbitrary steps of the Israeli government will lead to an escalation ofthe violence

The occupations' soldiers and settlers continued in their crimes against our people yesterday [Oct. 17, 2015]. They executed 5 [Palestinian] citizens (two young men and a young woman in Hebron, a boy in occupied Jerusalem, and a young man from Katana), alleging that they tried to stab soldiers and settlers. However, a video exposed the lie in the occupations' claims, while the last videos showed settlers in Hebron 'celebrating' the murders.

The Martyr Iyad Khalil Al-Awawdeh (i.e., terrorist who stabbed one), 27, was barely buried when the occupation forces executed Tareq Ziyad Al-Natsheh (i.e., terrorist who stabbed one), 20, Fadl Muhammad Awad Al-Qawasmeh, 18, and Bayan Ayman Al-Esseili, 16, from Hebron.  Tareq died as a Martyr from the occupations' gunfire yesterday evening at the entrance to Al-Shahada Street in the center of Hebron, [they] claimed he stabbed an occupation soldier. Occupation forces let the young man bleed in the street for 40 minutes, and then he was taken in an Israeli ambulance to an unknown Israeli location. A number of settlers did not let the ambulance pass and gave out candy. The excuse of a 'stabbing attack' is present at every execution the occupation soldiers are carrying out at the various checkpoints, and is presented on a 'platter of blood' immediately after they take out their targets. As with the execution of Al-Qawasmeh (i.e., terrorist who stabbed one) on Al-Shahada Street... by an extreme settler, the occupation soldiers are quick to find an excuse: One of the soldiers gave another soldier a knife, so that he would put it by the Martyr's body. This was documented and exposed in the video of 'the young people against the settlements.'"
[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Oct. 18, 2015]
Fadl Al-Qawasmeh - 18-year-old Palestinian terrorist who tried to stab an Israeli citizen in the town of Kiryat Arba in the West Bank, on Oct. 17, 2015. The Israeli man shot and wounded Al-Qawasmeh, who later died of his wounds.

Official PA TV broadcast from a press conference organized by PLO Executive Committee member and Fatah Central Committee member Saeb Erekat
PLO Executive Committee member and Fatah Central Committee member Saeb Erekat: "A woman from Jericho, Israa Ja'abis, who has an 11-year-old son and travels to Jerusalem daily. Her car had an electrical fault and the airbags inflated, and [the Israeli forces] immediately fired at her. They [Israel] immediately said it was a suicide attack. The same happened with Fadi Alloun."
[Official PA TV, Oct. 13, 2015]
Israa Ja'abis - 31-year-old Palestinian terrorist, resident of East Jerusalem, who carried out a car bomb attack near Ma'ale Adumim, a few kilometers east of Jerusalem, on Oct.11, 2015. A policeman who noticed a suspicious vehicle signaled the driver to stop, after which she drove closer to a group of police officers and detonated a gas balloon. One policeman suffered light injuries and Ja'abis was seriously injured.
Headline: "Objection to stabbing stories"

Op-ed by Hafez Al-Barghouti, regular columnist for the official PA daily
"It seems to me that every Israeli settler, policeman, or soldier has received the authority to kill and shoot every Palestinian in order to kill, regardless of his age, looks, way of walking, or clothing. This is because ambiguity surrounds the stabbings which Israel is announcing, since there are witnesses that contradict the Israeli versions. Likewise, we haven't seen any injured Israeli, only the body of a young Palestinian by the Lions' Gate on the ground, nothing on him, next to a young woman lying on the ground, and there is also a boy who has died as a Martyr (i.e., terrorist who stabbed 2) under unclear circumstances is the Pisgat Ze'ev settlement. It is easy for a settler to shoot any Palestinian, as happened yesterday at the Jabara checkpoint near 

Tulkarem, it is easy for a border policeman to throw a knife near the body of a young person after his cold-blooded murder and to claim a student was making a stabbing attempt, while we see her stained with blood, but we do not see who was stabbed. Likewise, it is easy to claim a woman with a child has a bomb after the steering wheel air cushion opens, and it has even reached the point where a citizen from Umm Al-Fahm is accused of intentionally running [someone] over, and is attacked and suffers harassment...

The occupation - which have allowed the settlers to invade the Al-Aqsa Mosque at all times, and which is at the moment exacerbating its mistake and allowing the spilling of blood, such that every Israeli will turn into a murderer who can kill any Palestinian, claiming he tried to stab [him] - is responsible for the situation we have reached. This is so as most of the Israeli versions of stabbings are false and forged, and we can appeal the stabbing stories, since the Israeli government is exaggerating with lies and fabrications. I can only say to us: 'Do not throw your children into the battle.'"
[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Oct. 13, 2015]
Marah Al-Bakri - 16-year-old female Palestinian terrorist who stabbed an Israeli border policeman at a light rail station in Ammunition Hill in Jerusalem on Oct. 12, 2015. She was shot and wounded by the policeman.
Alaa Zayoud - Israeli Arab terrorist from Umm Al-Fahm who on Oct. 11, 2015, near Hadera, deliberately ran over and seriously wounded a 19-year-old Israeli and stabbed and wounded her, as well as a 19-year-old woman and a 45-year-old man. The terrorist was handed over to the Israeli security forces for interrogation.
