NM Israel Alliance

To the Honorable Leaders of the Arab States,

We in Israel received with great pleasure your agreement to normalize relations with Israel on condition that we agree to the establishment of a Palestinian state and exchanges of territories between that state and Israel. The Palestinian state that you propose to establish in Judea and Samaria would be the second Palestinian state, since the first Palestinian state was established six years ago in the Gaza Strip, and you clearly recognize it as such in practice. How else can the state visits of the Emir of Qatar and the secretary of the Arab League in Gaza be understood? Now you propose the establishment of a second Palestinian state? Perhaps a third!! Because Jordan is also a state with a Palestinian majority. And all of these states were established – as you know – on land that the League of Nations had designated for a Jewish state at the San Remo Conference, in April of 1920. So why should we agree to exchange territories with any state or states that have been established or will be established on our land?

The US State Department, under new Secretary of State John Kerry, brought Stephen Walt, co-author of the notoriously unscholarly and prejudiced book “The Israel Lobby”, to speak as an expert in Israel-US relations. Walt, by the way, was a big backer of Chuck Hagel’s nomination for Secretary of Defense. The two share a dislike of the Jewish-I mean Israel- lobby. Evidently so does the State Department. Walt spoke at the State Department on the eve of the annual AIPAC conference on mistakes the US makes in foreign policy.

Audio shows Brooklyn College lied about circumstances of Jewish students being thrown out of SJP event

From Algemeiner:
Audio from the Brooklyn College sponsored BDS event shows that the Jewish students present did not disrupt the event. School administrators, instructors and SJP people claimed they were evicted from the talk for being loud and disruptive. Evidently the only disruption was to be sitting and holding pamphlets that the SJP organizers didn’t like, especially Carlos Guzman, who confronted one of the students, told them they couldn’t have their pamphlets, and told security to remove the pro-Israel Jewish students. The vice-president for student affairs at Brooklyn College, Milga Morales, was sitting near by, did not intervene and later vouched for the lie.
