A British High Court determined Friday evening that the arrest of Sheikh
Raed Salah, leader of the Islamic Movement in 1948 Palestine, upon landing
in the United Kingdom two months ago, was illegal, and as such, Salah is
eligible to receive compensation from the state. This ruling comes after
the British government removed a law that allowed prosecution of war
criminals in British courts. Thus the back and forth between truth/justice
and the Israel lobby in England continues (since 1917!). In other lobby
news, President Obama and many politicians in sending greetings to Jews for
the new year developed the horrible habit of linking it to support for
Israel as if Judaism and Zionism are the same, If Apartheid Israel is
indeed a Jewish project and is linked to Judaism, Judaism is in deep
trouble. I wrote to one politician to say "Do you issue statements on Muslim
Holidays referring to unshakable commitments to any Islamic majority
country? On a Buddhist Holiday to unshakable commitment to Japan? On
Christmas for unshakable commitment to Britain? Why the hypocrisy and double
standard? And what about the millions of Jews who do not care about Israel
or even consider it an apartheid state-- does your message relate to them?".
I could have gone further and stated would it have been acceptable on
Christmas for an American politician to send greeting to Christians saying
that he has unshakable commitment to Christian Nazi Germany? Someday this
Greek tragedy will end and all people will look back and shake their heads
in amazement at this absurdity.
