We have had all the State Department "peace" we are prepared to take.
Reader comment on item: [The Hamas Victory and] Prospects for Peace

Submitted by SHmuel HaLevi (Israel), Jan 31, 2006 at 06:19

There are a variety of things I used to do until I was 17 years old that I ceased doing at that time. From amongst those things a few of them stand up in particular.
I commenced to understand the meaning of love and the meaning of peace, hate, truth, etc.
Details regarding the former I prefer to leave to each of the readers imagination.
About the later the learning process has been a significantly different kettle of fish.
On the peace and hate and truth areas the learning curve has been laborious indeed.
But we are addressing "Islam and peace" whatever, so allow me to take on that right away.
I arrived to Eretz Israel initially in 1977 and returned in 1994.
During those years I had no choice but to internalize the Islamic settings. Or be a "victim of peace". Right of the bat... They are nothing like those in Peoria.

It started one evening returning from work to my home in Bet Shemesh.
Did not yet had a car so I took the bus from ZENITH RC operation in Jerusalem to the Central Bus station and from there to Beth Shemesh. I was sitting at the bus terminal reading a technical publication. The area was virtually deserted. Then the schooling started...

Somebody jumped me from behind and hit me from every possible angle. No warning or reason.
Still young then and US raised I towered about two heads and was far larger than the assailant.
I did not know who he was or if he was Islamic or Jewish or anything else. I heard him screaming "Alah.. uAkbar". Fresh from the US I did not even know what that meant.

Shocked as I was, still managed to get hold of him, picked him up and slammed him against the floor. Hard. Apparently he was badly damaged and I was taken by the Border Police to the Russian Compound PS where I explained to them what happened and another person confirmed the attack. I never been attacked before or had to defend myself before in my life.
In fact as a member of the US Democratic Party I did not have any pre set political lines.

As I was released after repairing my glasses and band aiding some cuts a Colonel in the BP advised me to be careful since "they" will come after me. I responded calmly that I would do my best. He smiled and nodded knowingly. No one ever came after me after that and the people at the Station gave me to understand their respect.

Ladies & Gentlemen,
Stop analyzing the hordes that did 9/11, Madrid, London, Tel Aviv, Bali, BA, etc, and convey clear messages. The enemy if not "terrorism", it is Islam with or without oil.

If it is not too late already, turn the direction finder into the real thing. Then slamm them until there is no possible doubt in their minds that the game is over. That is the only way that section of humanity understands where their rights end and the rights of others start. That is precisely the way they operate. Individually or collectively. There is no such a thing of a good Islam and a bad one. There may be individuals smart enough to understand that their ways will cause always harm to them and those people will be careful. Otherwise that is that.

We, in turn, will have to cut bait from the debating society and do some body slamming with your agreement of not.
The era of the israeli generals and Peresites is about over here and the boys and girls at State will have to find other toys to play with. We are not any longer going to play along with Mr. Baker and his clan of unJews.
It is up to the always wise US taxpayer to come to terms with reality and work your end of the deal. You cand do it, I know that.
The Jewish Nation even if lumbering, will react and deliver those that internally have harmed us and also those in partnership with them.

Those that since Oslo have been intentionally endangering our people, will have to face Jewish Courts.

SHmuel
