Exposing the role that Islamic jihad theology and ideology play in the modern global conflicts

Pamela Geller: MSNBC Airs Palestinian Jihad Propaganda Map

Unconscionable, but not remotely surprising.

MSNBC Palestine map

“MSNBC Airs Palestinian Jihad Propaganda Map,” by Pamela Geller, Breitbart, October 18, 2015:

Last Friday, MSNBC aired a segment featuring a Palestinian propaganda map that is a total fabrication, a pack of lies that contradicts established historical fact and is part of The Political Swindle of the Century, a.k.a “The Plight of The Palestinian People.”

Watch this MSNBC “news segment.” The maps they show of the steady diminishing of Palestinian territory at the hands of Israel are, quite simply, lies. The fallaciousness of the map MSNBC used is demonstrated by one simple fact: the flag of Palestine before 1948 featured the Star of David. This is further proof (as if we needed any more) of the falsity of the vicious historical revisionism by the Muslim world to erase the Jewish State and create a mythical Islamic narrative surrounding five thousand years of Jewish history.

Shany Mor, the former director for foreign policy of the Israeli National Security Council, explains it all in a devastating article in The Tower, setting the historical record straight. Mor notes that before the modern Jewish state was founded in 1948, there was no “State of Palestine.” “The simple fact,” he says, “is that none of pre-1948 Palestine was under the political authority of Arabs or Jews. It was ruled by the British Mandatory government, established by the League of Nations for the express purpose of creating a ‘Jewish National Home.’ It was also—contrary to the claims of innumerable pro-Palestinian activists—the first time a discrete political entity called ‘Palestine” existed in modern history. And this entity was established in order to fulfill a goal that was essentially Zionist in nature.”

Mor notes that one way the map is misleading is that it labels all land that wasn’t owned by Jews as Palestinian: “But this lie is compounded by another that is even more epic in scope: Labeling every single patch of land not owned by the JNF as Arab or Palestinian. This was quite simply not the case. We have incomplete data on land ownership in modern Palestine, and even less on Arab property than Jewish property, partly due to the very complicated nature of property law in Ottoman times. But anyone’s map of private property in Mandatory Palestine from this period would be mostly empty—half the country is, after all, desert. It would show small patches of private Jewish land—as this map does—alongside small patches of private Arab land, as this map shamelessly does not.”

Antisemites and anti-Israel agitators often use doctored maps to show Israel’s supposed aggression over the past century. The map claims are made by haters who either choose to have no knowledge of the facts or more typically, no moral compass. Their agenda is clear. These maps are a blood libel against the Jewish state.

My now-famous “savage” ads, stating “In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man; support Israel, defeat jihad,” were a response to antisemitic ads that ran featuring those very doctored maps. We expect this kind of moral depravity from the usual suspects, but it’s a whole other thing for MSNBC to use them to try and explain away the Islamic genocide against the Jews.

Yet MSNBC has a pattern of Jew-hatred. On Thursday, MSNBC’s reporter in Jerusalem (Ayman Mohyeldin) was caught red-handed portraying a Damascus gate stabbing by a rabid “Palestinian” terrorist as an Israeli execution of an innocent Palestinian. What’s the difference between Ayman and the Muslim terrorist who, disguised as a journalist, stabbed an Israeli soldier? Very little.

MSNBC has come out as a full-on propaganda outlet for Islamic Jew-hatred. MSNBC is notorious for its uber-left, sloppy “reportage,” but the Jew-hatred they have brazenly displayed covering the wave of jihad-terror in Israel is shocking.

The fact is that Palestine is Israel — the Jewish homeland. And MSNBC is a shameless shill for the genocidal Palestinian jihad. Before the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948, there were Palestinian Muslims and Palestinian Jews living in the British Mandate of Palestine. And the Palestinian Muslims were conducting pogroms against the Palestinian Jews — much the way they are today. Same war, same hate, same motive — Islamic Jew-hatred. It’s in the Quran.

    That map is still floating around? I though it was throughly discredited by now. Even if that march of possession of land were true, it tells us nothing of how it changed hands.

      Come on Israel…. you are powerful and God is with you

      take every inch of the lands that GOD promised you

    This illustrates the complicit nature of MSNBC.
    They prefer to ignore reality as they grovel for the approval of the nearest Muslim.
    They also ignore the well documented non-stop genocidal nature of Muslims toward Jews and others.
    Muslims are inherently genocidal.
    It is part of being a Muslim beginning with the Islamic Profession of Hate (the shahada).
    Genocide is their core doctrine per Muhammad.
    It is every Muslim’s raison d’être.
    It is who they are.

      Further proof of MSNBC’s outrageous lack of truth-telling goes even to the misleading pronunciation of Ayman Mohyeldin’s name–[Eamon Muldeen]–I thought he was Irish but was disabused when I saw his horribly flawed reporting & then connected it with true spelling of his name. Just one more of the “thousand cuts” bringing the West to its knees–or the chopping block.

    This was my reply to a friend that showed the four maps

    The maps legend say green is Palestine white is Israel

    The first map shows a bit of white and almost all green. The
    definitions for this map is that white is privately owned jewish land
    and green is everything else. By this definition it stays the same
    all the time. Now Jews own 8% privately and arabs the same.
    So if you had all maps using this definition, private ownership,
    nothing would change over time. Had it been green being what Arabs
    own privately and white the rest this map would look all white. If you
    will look you will see that the Negev who had no one at that
    time is defined as green, so all green, the English part, everything
    beside the privately owned Jew

    Second map is partition plan, it was a theoretical map suggested by
    the UN, Jews, celebrated in the streets, Arabs said no way, lets
    kill them off, and started the war This map has no continuation

    Third map is 48-67. White is Israel, green happen to be Jordan and
    Egypt. Palestine did not exist, they did not consider themselves
    Palestinians and did not ask to be free. Golan highets is not
    mentioned. This is a map of states. If this is the definition you
    should
    have the next in 68 in which is all white including getting three
    times as big by taking sinai. Then israel gets much smaller with
    peace treaty with Egypt (and getting out of Gaza). So if you go by
    state there was no Palestine in the third map and Israel give back a
    lot of land (which they try to show it never does). This is why the
    main time 68-2005 is not in this maps.

    The forth map is area controled by Palestinian group. First time it
    happens, ever (there was no Palestine state or Palestine leaders in
    history), is 1993 in the Oslo accord so we could have started the maps
    then. Green being what the Palestinian control and white what Israel.
    This type of maps would show Green getting bigger with Israel getting
    out of Gaza…

    So what they did is shift definitions, lied, and choose not to display
    most of the times to get the story they want. This is not history but
    pure propaganda.

      There are 3 more maps missing from the series : 100AD, 1000BC and 2000BC.
      That rounds it up to a holy 7.

    Since the purpose of the Mandate for Palestine was to birth a Jewish State within that territory, already truncated by 78% in 1923 to create the eventual Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, why is any portion of the first map in any color other than white?

      Of course, in all this what is always forgotten is that invaders Arabs from Arabia burst forth violently to conquer ALL of West Asia and beyond. The invader thieves and brigands then forcefully converted most of the conquered to Islam then called all the stolen lands “Arab lands”. The Palestinians as Arafat said belong to a host of countries not including Palestine.

      The key question is: since when do invaders who violently invade and steal lands have any legitimate claim to such lands. Once the Turks were forced to cough up their pilfered holdings the original landholders should have had the priority choice. The invader Arabs should then have been been requested to return to Arabia and other like places. The West Bank–the heart of Jewish history should never have been handed to the invader Arabs with their lazily plagiarized religion of Islam. It’s difficult to understand and explain this European love-affair with Arabs. The logical point is that wherever there are Jewish historical names should have been included in the neo-Israel territory.

    One obvious anomaly is this: why should Jerusalem, an historical town central to Jewish historical identity be part of officially recognized lands conquered by Arabs? There is a lot of talk these days about the Al-Aksa mosque. But this mosque built long after Judaism and Christianity were founded is no more than a “Conquest Mosque” similar to the one that Muslim Arabs wee pushing to build near the bombed-out WTC ruins.

  6. Joseph says

    Oct 19, 2015 at 1:36 pm

    So let us use the map from the time of King David or Solomon. The Al-Aksa mosque has absolutely no right to be there or the Palestinians for that matter. Egypt, Iran and Iraq have plenty of land for them, let them live there.

      Exactly, how far back ya’ wanna’ go? How ’bout a map from 2000 B.C. to present.

      • Joseph says

        Oct 19, 2015 at 7:55 pm

        MHE Did you pull that date out of thin air? Reason is that this about the time GOD gave the land to Abram who later became Abraham.

    The left isn’t even bothering to be subtle about their Jew hatred anymore. Their arguments always turn towards their visceral hatred of the Jews and desire to see Israel wiped off the map. The leftist occupy Wallstreet was all about the left blaming the Jews for the world’s problems

    • Roy C says

      Oct 20, 2015 at 5:44 pm

      Good point Richie – We see this throughout the democratic party top down emanating from the president who no longer needs to hide his visceral hatred for the state of Israel. Anti-Semitism is now pretty much mainstream in our media and the worst of the worst is the Associated Press. Their news reports read as though coming straight from Hamas and no one seems to notice or even care. As for the occupy wall st crowd most of the fawning coverage carefully edited out the rampant anti-Semitism of these loony leftists. The movement was embraced totally by the democratic party as enthusiastically as they cheer on the toxic black lives matter movement. The hard left has firm control of the UN and most of the world’s media including America. With Canada now gone as one of the few remaining supporters of the Jewish state things look very bleak indeed for Israel.

    Most Jordanians and most ‘Palestinians’ consider Jordan to be eastern Palestine and Israel to be western Palestine.

    This is expressed by the almost identical flags of Jordan and the ‘Palestinian’ Authority.

    Too bad there is not a propaganda that could become well known that the Jews most Holy place is somewhere near the South Pole. Something to get the moslims all in a lather to gather and take over the cold, deep dark ocean. Desert people that many are, perhaps they don’t know how to swim.

    They want Jerusalem, they want the Western Wall,they want Manhattan…
    Taking over Sweden, Germany, France…
    Never satisfied, never appreciative, always claiming victimhood.

    Sickening beast of islam, demanding just like the father of lies, satan the devil from whence the beast came. And getting so much help from those will become its slaves.

    What few people know especially among the Muslim loving left wing lunatic population is that Both The New York Times and CNBC major shareholders are from the Racist Islamic apartheid toilet of Qatar .The same Qatar that does not let any Palestinians to live in their country , has not taken one Syrian refugee and is spending a whopping 117 billion dollars building 7 Fully air conditioned football stadiums for the 2022 World Cup
