Jihad Watch

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

Happy Hanukkah!

Dec 2, 2018 12:59 pm By Robert Spencer

Chag Chanukkah sameach to all Jewish Jihad Watch readers, and to all supporters of Israel, which is on the front lines of the global jihad. If you don’t support Israel, you don’t really oppose jihad or Sharia oppression.

This year, with the U.S. Embassy in Jerusalem, it’s all the sweeter. Happy Hanukkah!

    Eretz Israel is the demise of Islam and should be celebrated as such. This little piece of land flowing with milk and honey and allotted to the descendants of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob/Israel located in the midst of the Muslim world is a constant reminder of the impotence of Allah, his deluded prophet and Hagar and Ishmael’s expulsion at the hands of Abraham.

      Moving to the ontological identity of Israel, let us remind ourselves that Israel is a symbol and result of Jewish perseverance, humanity and bravery in the face of constant persecution and the land of milk and honey for innovation, agriculture, refuge and shelter and great weather, not to mention a deep deep history.

    Thank you so much Robert. We Jewish Zionists appreciate all your good work, and we hope our little Chanuka candles can bring light and enlightenment to a world threatened by very dark forces of evil. Israel is not a perfect country – and Israelis are very aware of it – but the Hebrew Nation has a right to self-determination just like all the nations of the world. And the story of Chanuka and the Macabees exemplifies our battle to a be a free and independent nation in the land where our nation and language and culture was born 3000 years ago. May the light of freedom shine on all nations of the world!

        Israel is not perfect–but she is one of the most civilized nations in the world, and is so while being constantly under siege. I find that incredibly inspiring.

    • elisheva says

      Dec 4, 2018 at 1:45 pm

      I think that we have to stop prefacing any appreciation of Israel, with “we are not perfect…”. It reminds me a bit of 1984.

    People who make a study of society and peoples, use small units, such as family units, or schools, to understand the dynamics of a larger society.

    If one looks at Israel, the history and the modern struggle to stay alive while so many enemies surround the gate…one can see just how evil is islam. One can see that islam is not open to agreement or to peace, on any terms. islam signifies death, not life, and is bent on total destruction.

    Israel has survived for so many thousands of years while her enemies have tried in every way to destroy her. Israel has a God, a Supreme God of the universe and He has given Israel protection over these centuries. He has kept His promises to Abraham, to Isaac, to Jacob and David. To God, these ancient men are still living.

    This God of the Hebrews, is also the God of Christians. The enemies of both are at the gates, seeking to completely destroy. But the enemies will not have success. Our God has promised.

Take note :with the collapse of that grand sinister plan to exterminate Palestinians and residents of Sinai and Golan height territories for the expansion of fascist evil Zionist State of Israel ,evil Jews are failing. moving the embassy of Jewish slave state the evil United States is just waste of resources, it can never make the whole Jerusalem as capital of fascist evil Zionist State,East Jerusalem remains part of Palestinian territory forever as per UN Resolution No 181.

        ………………………..

        What tripe. There is no genocide–the Muslim population is actually growing. What Ibrahim itace muhammed means is that Jews are not allowed to defend against Jihad.

        Moreover, he has characterized the US trying to keep out Jihadists as “genocide”.

        And this is all projection on his part, in any case, since he has said that he looks forward to personally taking part in the genocide of the Jews.

        More:

        ………………………..

        Since there is no such plan, how can it “fail”?

        More:

        ………………………..

        “Slave state”–there is, of course, no slavery in Israel. This is more projection, since slavery is rife in much of the Muslim world, and Ibrahim itace muhammed has himself said that Muslims have the right to enslave Infidels.

        As for the UN resolution, as others have noted, this was rejected *by Muslims*. They had hoped to just destroy Israel outright. Too bad for them.

      Ibrahaim Ibn Itache

      “East Jerusalem remains part of Palestinian territory forever as per UN Resolution No 181.”

      This is a perfect example of the Arab concept of fair play. It was 181 that the Arabs of the mandate rejected in the first place, yet they keep thinking that they can just start wars and then go back to the choice they should have agreed to, which in this case was UN Res 181.

      Why dont you and may others who might find it interesting, go to the site below and explain how this so called stolen land, in this case my Judea and Samaria were printed up in a Jordanian Travel Brochure as being part of the Holy Land of Jordan, not a mention of “Palestine”

      So who stole from those Arab squatters anything???? Land won from Jordan belongs to the victor and Jordan may claim that:

      ”We respect the wish of the P.L.O., the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people, to secede from us in an independent Palestinian state,”- KIng Hussein-1988″

      And its a nice sentiment eh, and it took him 21 years after his blunder in joining the 6 day war that Israel had urged him to stay out of and remain neutra,l and 40 years after his troops had taken control of these areas and effectively made it as the brochure states, part of the holy land to be found in Jordan.

      Your crocodile tears fill the Nile and if Israel is committing anything akin to Ethnic Cleansing and all these other crimes, then for all their technology they are doing a piss poor job it seems.

      But at the end of the day, you will have to learn that those Arabs have run out of time. That Allah favors Israel, that there are religious Muslims who state that the Quran supports a Jewish State, that there are Bedouins, Druze, Christian and Muslim Arabs, Circassians etc who are ready shoot these losers from Gaza and anywhere else to protect what is also their land and communities.

      Oh and it was not Zionists who invaded, occupied and murdered the indigenous populations of

      Syria
      Lebanon
      Iraq
      Iran
      Algeria
      Egypt
      Armenia
      India

      And these are just the ones that self entitled Arabs, not Zionists, ARABS never mind Islam itself, helped themselves to and to this day,

      So try and stay off your high camel cause your too tipsy from lies to hang on.

      Israel was given to the Jews by G-D. however there are many non jews living in peace in Israel today.
      Perhaps you would also like to note that 800,000 jews were robbed and expelled from Arab lands, and came to live in Israel.

        save Europe, i normally support such Chinese styles of kicking with prayers from the Quran that scares the satan mithraist christians Call Holy Spirit. If you want i will give you the prayers, provided you abandone pagan mithraist christianity inspired by the satan mithraist christians Call Holy Spirit and embrace Islam the only surviving monotheist religion, all others corrupted incorporating pagan doctrines like Godman and begotten son of God. you are welcome.

        I was certain the islamic troll would make an inevitable and predictable appearance to attack Israel and the “evil Jews”{..sorry Moses,sorry Jesus!}:in fact…my ‘mithraist’ islamic-BS detector was pointing off the scale..

        Note this about Israel:

        1.the allah of the koran is NOT the Biblical God{of Moses,of David,of Israel}It is imperative to know that!

        2.Always remember that David versus goliath well represents Israel versus the enemies of Israel.
        Since allah is NOT the Biblical God,allah is more like the god of goliath.

        You might read the Book of Joel chapter 3…God’s plans for Israel does not permit the enemies of Israel defeating Him.Besides,why would God allow Israel to be re-established only for its enemies to destroy it?

        So the iranians and hizbollah and hamas can pray all they like to their “allah”…but allah is NOT the True Biblical God.It’s like this..

        goliath:oh mighty baal!give victory to us philistines!Strike that Jew David down with a big rock.{“prays” to baal}

        David:Oh God of Israel,God of the Israelite armies..{prays to the Actual God}

        It’s the same today for those who can see it..

        And we know how THAT ended:but David v goliath is highly symbolic for tiny Israel versus its big enemies:Remember,that allah is NOT the Biblical God of Israel!!

        Happy Hanukkah!

    Your good wishes are appreciated here in Israel, the home of the Jewish people, and sadly still suffering under Arab occupation. So much happens here that is never reported in English. Just for example, there are thousands of Jewish women held captive in Arab villages where the police are too scared to enter, and many murdered and buried in those villages.

    Keep up your good work!
