A Gaza Cartoon That Would Be Funny If It Wasn't So Sad. A MUST SEE!

If this cartoon wasn't so sad, it would be funny.
Reminds me of an episode of the Roadrunner! (Beep Beep)

Wherever you are in the world, I am sure you have seen videos and pictures of war struck Gaza and it has made you think twice about Israel. The truth of the matter is, war is always bad and it is for that reason that Israel never started or desired war. 

If you are judging war by its pictures, you might look at Berlin after the Allies attacked and come to the conclusion that Hitler was the victim.

Dresden after the UK and US bombed Nazi military installations

There are those who claim the Dresden attack was wrong, but there is not a sane person in the world who believes these pictures prove the Allies were the aggressors while the Nazis were the victims. 

The Israeli declaration of independence is filled with calls of peace to both our Arab neighbors as well as our Arab population, while both the PLO and Hamas charters call for the genocide of the Jewish people and the total annihilation of the State of Israel. 

You have also probably heard and seen pictures of how Israel bombed schools and hospitals but have ignored the fact that residential areas as well as civilian facilities and those schools and hospitals were used by Hamas as missile launching bases. This is not a figment of my imagination but rather a fact that was proven both by the UN as well as many news agencies and channels.

Here is just one example of France TV that caught live coverage of Hamas firing missiles adjacent to a hotel that was hosting international journalists as well as from a UN school.

Why Jerusalem Should Be Called The JEWISH City That Was Stolen

On the 28th day of the Hebrew month of Iyar (May 16th this year), we will commemorate the reunification of Jerusalem and the return of the holy city to its rightful owners: the Jews.

For those of you who think Jerusalem was ever an Islamic city, read

"5 Facts That Prove Jerusalem Was NEVER An Islamic Holy City"

Prior to 1948, the British passed a law prohibiting Jews from sounding the Shofar at the Western Wall. Jews often smuggled in a Shofar and as soon as the Shofar was blown the perpetrator was detained and arrested. Here is a video of some amazing Jewish heroes who blew the Shofar then and now.




Between 1948 - 1967 the Jordanian Legion occupied the entire West Bank as well as East Jerusalem. During those 19 years, not a single Jew was permitted to pray at the Kotel, let alone sound the Shofar. The Jordanians destroyed ancient Jewish cemeteries on Mount Zion simply because they were over-looking Old Jerusalem. Synagogues and places of Torah study were destroyed and desecrated by the Jordanian legion and Jewish tomb stones were crushed and used by Jordan as military latrines!

Freedom of religion was non-existent and Jews, Christians and non Muslims became second class citizens under Jordanian rule.
When the 1967 war began Jordan made a pact with Israel that it would not join the war.
As with most treaties that Israel signed with Islamic regimes, Jordan was quick to break their promises and attacked Israel together with Egypt, Syria, Iraq and Lebanon. Israel originally did not plan on liberating Jerusalem despite the fact that Jordan was not allowing Jews to reach the Old City, but when Jordan attacked, Israel had no choice and in SIX days alone, the little Jewish country miraculously defeated 5 Arab regimes that were attempting to destroy her.

Here is the historic video of Jewish soldiers returning to Jerusalem after 2,000 years of exile.

This Islamic Preacher Said The Most Shocking Thing Ever And Is Now Running For His Life!

I had to watch this several times to believe what I was hearing!
My Arabic is not great but I understood enough to know that the subtitles were right on the money.
I am not sure where he got the courage to demand this of the Islamic religious authorities, but this is what I would call "Good news for the Jews!"

Here Is Why If You Are Against Occupation, You Must Demand The Dome of The Rock Be Taken Down

For many of you, when you hear the name Jerusalem, you might think of the Gold Dome building that stands on what is known as the Temple Mount. It's called the Temple Mount because long before Islam ever existed the Jews were ruling the area and that is where the Jewish Temple stood.

The sad thing is, the Gold Dome is not even the infamous Al-Aqsa mosque. The actual mosque is the grey-domed building that is situated to the far right of the gold dome.

See the disputed ramp on the lower right side of the wall?
That was the ramp Israel renovated that triggered an uproar in the Islamic world and resulted in months of terrorism against Israel. The Muslims claimed that Israel was trying to conquer the Temple Mount (can see hear the irony).
They claimed the ramp is going to cause the mosque to collapse. Too bad the ramp is on the other side of the wall and nowhere near the mosque!

If the grey dome is Al-Aqsa mosque, what is the gold one? 

So happy you asked! 
The small grey-dome mosque was originally a small insignificant mosque built by Umar ibn Al-Khattāb sometime after 637 CE. He never intended to use the entire Temple Mount and even invited Jews to clean up the area that was left in ruins since the temple had been destroyed.  

Jerusalem, as a city, is not mentioned in the Quran even once and the name Al-Aqsa simply means the farthest mosque from Mecca. Jerusalem in no way is a holy city to Islam and never served as a center of religious practice. While the Temple Mount is the holiest place for the Jewish religion, the Al-Aqsa mosque (only the mosque, not the city) is considered the 3rd holiest mosque in Islam. 

It was not till 691 CE that Umayyad Caliph gave an order to erect a building on the site of the Jewish Temple. This monstrosity that was built to completely destroy Jewish roots was built after bloody battles that were fought between Muslim factions at the time. The folklore goes that Mohammed was brought up to heaven in a dream (!!!) and the story goes that he went up from Al-Aqsa. Without getting into my non-belief in the Quran, if Mohammed would have actually gone up from Al-Aqsa, don't you think the original builder of the mosque would have mentioned something?!

Generally, Muslims had no problem keeping the original names of the places they conquered and destroyed and the Temple Mount is no different. The Al-Aqsa building was originally called Bayt al-Muqaddas, which in English means the house on top of the Jewish temple! There is no historical dispute over the fact that the Muslims built a dome over Judaism's holiest site. The only debate that exists is if the Jews have a right to demand back what is rightfully theirs.

Below is the sketch of the Jewish Temple and the Dome of the Rock that was built on top of the area.

So the next time you hear a Jew who wants to take down the Dome of the Rock to reclaim and rebuild the Temple, understand that he is not being fanatic or radical, but is just reclaiming what even Muslims admit was ours. 

May the 3rd Temple be built speedily in our day!
