Fwd: Price-Tag Attacks? Wrong Again; Obama & the U.N.: Enemies of Israel

bs"d

Afsi's latest newsletter....

This is nothing less then another thwarted Blood Libel.  Let us continue to protest the innocent and righteous Jewish Youth,  Amiram ben Uliel and Elisha Odess who were framed with the Duma Blood Libel against them.  Let us not stop until they are released. Let us continue to raise awareness and demand that Meir Ettinger the grandson of Rabbi Meir Kahane is either charged with a crime and has a fair trial or else released.  He is being held in high security cell in isolation under Administrative Detention and innocent righteous Jewish kids are now under house arrest based on trumped up charges.

 Price Tag Vandalism was Libel  spread against the Hilltop Youth that has mushroomed into the false Blood Libel and slander of them being "Jewish Terrorists".  It is has been spread in the media and by the likes of Obama, the UN, the EU and the media.  This slander is then spread by those on the payroll of the Israeli gov't  pressured by the latter and this group includes high profile credible Rabbinic Leaders. It's horrible and it must stop!  

Jailing an IDF soldier for doing his job in defending Israel is another example of the enemies of Israel trying to get Jews to turn against their own, B'Tselem is behind this.  It greatly weakens Israel by either bribing or blackmailing.   Jewish Leaders, political or spiritual  are most at risk of being targeted to be today's modern day Miraglim.  I truly do not envy Jewish Leaders beholden to others who do not have Israel's best interest in mind. 


Megallilat Dam, Ticker Mishloach Manot handout on Purim pdf document educates you to the evils of Administrative Detention and how it has affected Amiram ben Uliel, Elisha Odess and Meir Ettinger and the hilltop youth....

COME TO ISRAEL WITH AFSI JUNE 1-8 (with link to full description)

"Price-Tag" Attacks? Wrong Again!
Self-inflicted?


(Investigators find no evidence that Israeli settlers graffitied, then set fire to the home of a West Bank man.)

A "Palestinian" who claimed to be the victim of a hate crime, reporting earlier this month that Jewish settlers had torched his West Bank home, was found to have fabricated the story, police said Tuesday.

Military prosecutors have opened an investigation into the report filed by the man, who now faces charges of obstruction of justice, making false claims to authorities and violating public order, according to a statement from police.

The story is also covered in Arutz Sheva: Palestinian fabricated 'Jewish terror attack', now faces charges.


How many of these so-called "price tag" attacks against Arabs were concocted or self-inflicted by those very Arabs? How many innocent Jews have been, and still are, illegally imprisoned based on absolutely no evidence, and with no rights? Why do the Israeli authorities arrest innocent Jews with relish, refusing to acknowledge a lack of evidence against them? And most shamefully, those Jews who condemn their own people in a lock-step action, joining the chorus of Israel's enemies simply to pander to the accusers, must do a mea-culpa. AFSI has always insisted on believing in the rule of "innocent until PROVEN guilty." Too many of our politically correct "lemmings" race to accuse their fellow Jews. We urge our people to stand with their brothers and sisters in Israel. Show them we are with them in actions and words of support. 
Am Yisrael Chai!!


 
Enemies
Obama and the U.N. - Enemies of Israel

 
As we've reported in several posts since Purim, last week AFSI led a Megillah reading at the Isaiah Wall opposite the U.N. to celebrate Purim while calling out the UN for the racist, anti-Israel institution that it is.

Today, there is an article in ForeignPolicy.com (Fearing Trump, U.N. Embraces the Art of the Deal) with a revealing quote. The article is about the fear world leaders have about a possible Trump presidency. Given that possibility, they state that the U.N. should implement everything it can in 2016 while Obama is still president. Why?

European governments, in particular, see the adoption of a U.N. Security Council resolution condemning Israeli settlements or sketching a political road map for a Palestinian state as the major prize. They are also seeking U.S. support at a summit on migration that will be held at U.N. headquarters in September. 

"Everything that we can do in 2016 we should do in 2016 because we know what we're dealing with," said a senior U.N. diplomat who favors Security Council action in the coming months on an Israel-Palestine resolution. "In the Obama administration, we have ... the most pro-U.N. administration that any of us can remember."

The logic is irrefutable
If A: Obama leads the most pro-U.N. American administration in history.
and B: The U.N. is a racist, anti-Israel body.
then C: Obama is racist and anti-Israel.

COME TO ISRAEL WITH AFSI JUNE 1-8 (with link to full description)



 
Illegal
Finally exposed: Illegal EU building on Israeli land

Illegal EU building on Israeli land

It looks like the substance finally hit the fan in Great Britain. As written in today's Daily Mail (UK):

The EU is claiming diplomatic immunity after using taxpayers' money to build unauthorised settlements and roads on Israeli parts of the West Bank, MailOnline can reveal.
 
An Israeli NGO launched legal action after photographing EU flags flying above buildings on land placed under Israeli jurisdiction by the Oslo Accords, to which the EU is a signatory. EU bureaucrats are avoiding court by citing diplomatic rules.
 
The buildings, which are given to Palestinians, are intended to 'pave the way' for more land to be brought under Palestinian control, according to official EU papers. Many are bulldozed by Israel only for the EU to repeatedly rebuild them, generating more costs for the taxpayer.
 
Leaked documents obtained by MailOnline show that the EU - which receives £350million per week from Britain - is using diplomatic rules to place officials above the law, foiling attempts to hold bureaucrats accountable.

Link to full article:

AFSI has written about this major problem numerous times, and thanks to Ari Briggs and the Regavim organization, this illegal EU activity is finally getting the exposure it needs to.

Please read the entire article linked above, see the photos, maps and video to understand the extent of this egregious criminal activity undertaken by the EU in Israeli territory.

Read the Israeli report in Arutz Sheva::


********************************* THIS JUST IN  *******************************

Yesterday we wrote about that wasteland taking up space on New York City's east side called the United Nations. Their actions and deliberations defy the logic of sane people, and calling that entity a bastion of hypocrisy lets them off easy.

As we all know, UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon wants to strip Israel of its ancestral homeland in Judea and Samaria, and the security that it brings, and force Israel to uproot hundreds of thousands of its citizens and hand the land over to the "Palestinian" Arabs for the creation of another fascistic, dictatorial, corrupt and dangerous Arab state, within the heartland of Israel (aka, the "Two State Solution").

Today, Israel declared that 234 hectares of practically empty land along the Jordan Valley in Area C within Israeli jurisdiction to be state land, thus making it available for development. Of course, our courageous and oh-so-wise UN Secretary-General was not too happy, and urged Israel to 'reverse its "confiscation" of land in Judea and Samaria, describing the decision as "an impediment to the two-state solution" that calls to divide Israel'.

So, what do we have? On one hand, we have the Europeans helping the poor, oppressed "Palestinian" Arabs to build thousands of illegal structures on Israeli land without so much of a peep from the UN. On the other we have the UN going wild and crazy over the announcement that Israel has declared several hundred acres of its own land as state land.

Hypocrisy reigns.
