      What Netanyahu Should Say to Obama

      by Tamar Yonah

      Prime Minister Netanyahu is set to meet with U.S. President Obama tomorrow, Tuesday in the White House.  Here's what he should say:

       

      Opening scene:

      PM Netanyahu is ushered into the Oval Office with his entourage, carrying something very heavy....

      Obama:  "Hey Bibi-Baby, what's that big velvety thing you're carrying in your arms?  Is that a present for Little ol' me?"

      Bibi:  "It's actually a message for you that I will need to decipher for you, as it is in Hebrew.  You see (Bibi clears his throat),  'ahem' -Mr. President without a Birth Certificate',   We Jews have a legal title to our Land, and belong to it, and can show you. Our deed to this land is written here in the Torah. This is where our kings reigned, where our people civilized the world, and where our kings and ancestors are buried even today. We have only one home, and it has become intolerable to live there under the daily terror that we face. We need peace and quiet.  We need to stop pouring money into terrorist damage control, security and defense, and the fruitless quest for peace with regimes and cultures that don't desire it.  Our people need to concentrate on other things we've neglected, like our children's education, our economy, our great contributions of science & technology, and spreading morality, loving kindness and the knowledge of the 'Creator of the Universe', through the Torah, in order to improve the world for all of Mankind."

      Obama sits at his desk and puts his feet up on it.  "Oh, is that so Jew-boy?".


      This little Jew-boy is the acting 'King of Israel' today.  A little respect, please. (sigh)  Look, we tried it your way, and really it was foolish of us, but we went along the diplomatic track as you urged and pressured us to do.  Our peace and security went downhill ever since, as appeasing these extremist Islamic and terrorist regimes only emboldened our enemies to perpetrate even more harm upon us.  They saw by our 'good will gestures' and appeasement, that their violence worked.  We can't tolerate this anymore.  We tired it your way of letting the International Community carve out a peace plan, but no more.  We are in a worse situation now than we have ever been in before.  The Hezbollah terrorists, under the eyes of the United Nations Peace Keeping Forces, have re-armed and are better equipped than ever before.  The Hamas terror organization rules in Gaza and continues to arm themselves with missiles and regularly uses their weapons to target, TARGET OUR CIVILIANS.  Iran is almost finished developing nuclear bombs to use against us, and after that, you, in America. Iran is arming Syria and possibly Turkey with thousands of missiles that can reach deep into Israel and it's population centers.  It's unacceptable.  And so we Jews came up with our plan on how to deal with these enemies we both share, even if you threaten to cut off any arms sales to us.  As Pslam 20 so poetically puts it: "Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we [come with] will make mention, of the name of the LORD our God." 

      Bibi places the velvet covered Torah scroll he is carrying, very carefully on the table and unrolls the scroll.  He reaches into his pocket to put on a Yarmulke.  He takes hold of a long stick which is used to read the Torah and pointing to the different Biblical narratives where G-d says that the Land of Israel belongs to the Jewish People, he reads and translates aloud, the holy passages.  He points to the different places which speak about G-d telling the Children of Israel to go out to war and that He will be with them.  He tells 'Obama-Without a Birth Certificate' that he hopes the American People and his administration will support Israel in their quest to rid themselves and the world of the Islamic terrorist enemies once and for all, and to bring them to their knees until they beg for an unconditional surrender.  Bibi then points to the verse, from the book of Genesis chapter 12:3 "And I will bless them that bless thee, and him that curseth thee will I curse;". 


      "Are we on the same page?" Bibi asks as he peers into Obama's eyes?  "Are you with us, or with the terrorists?"

      Obama starts to stammer,  "I'm speechless.  I, I, I ah, don't know what to say" as he anxiously looks around and yells, "Where's my TelePrompTer!!!!:"  Frustrated that he has to wing it on his own, he looks back at Bibi and and blurts out,  "You're madder than a wet hen!  Listen bub, we have business dealings with the Muslim world.  We just got a real firm foothold in the Afghani poppy fields and get a LOT of money from the drug sales.  My predecessor, Bush, made nice with the King of Saudi Arabia and I am even closer, since I am his Muslim brother.  I, I, I ah mean, I am like a brother to him, you know, in a good neighborly 'Christian' sort of way, was what I meant to say.  I mean, heh, it's not like I believe in Mohammed or anything... er, peace be upon him!  or that I believe in the 'holy Koran', I mean, Eh, the Koran. Darn!  Ah, well, scratch that.  Anyway, where's that TelePrompTer!!!!"

      Bibi:  "Uh, 'Mr. President Without a Birth Certificate', look, we're speaking about the saving of human lives here, and I really can't worry about your business and power interests. This terror war will keep on going, until someone actually wins the war.  We are determined, no matter how much the world screams, to finally put an end to this all and win this war.  And to ensure this, since the world has turned against us and we realize that we are without friends, we in Israel have decided that we will patch things up the best we know how, and return to our G-d, after all, when we listened to Him, we won our wars.  He also keeps His promises to us -unlike the Extremist Muslim world that promises us peace, and then sends it's soldiers to bomb our civilians.  Our G-d has also been by our side whenever we called on Him, unlike the fickle relationship we have had with different U.S. Administrations and the Hate department, -excuse me, I meant the State Department -that hates Israel.  So, with that, I am leaving you with these wise words from our sage, Rabbi Hillel, 'If I am not for myself, then who will be for me? And if I am only for myself, then what am I? And if not now, when?'


      Mr. 'President With No Birth Certificate', I and my countrymen, will be eradicating these evil infrastructures and terrorists, that your people suffered from on 9/11.  The world will be a better place because of this -as it was after the Nazis were defeated in WWII.  You don't need to thank us, ....but don't bother us either.  We'll also be disassembling and eradicating the infrastructure of the Hamas terrorist government in Gaza.  We will be taking that region back and re-settling it with our peaceful citizens who were thrown out of their homes.  We will, in diplomatic language, be 'encouraging' the Hamas to return our kidnapped soldier, Gilad Shalit, to us by strong means, where it won't be worth their while to keep him a prisoner.  Oh, and by the way, we want our brother Jonathan Pollard to be released immediately and return to Israel on my plane with our entourage.  He's served already over 20 years in your prison for a crime that others, put away for a similar act -but more subversive, had served much less of a sentence.  If he's not released immediately, I will make sure that our Mossad finds, and releases your school records and original birth certificate.  It will be the end of your career."

      "Go ahead, I was born in Hawaii, and I can prove it!"

      "Ok, then, ...prove it!"

      "Drat! he got me! Uh, ah, TELEPROMTER!  Where's my TELEPROMPTER!!!!"



      * Let us all pray that G-d gives Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu the strength and courage to act like a real king of Israel and to stand up for G-d and his country.


      And now, you have GOT to watch this.... Israeli soldiers doing guard duty in Hebron get bored, and decide to spice up their early morning watch.  As the Mosque plays its usual loud recordings , 'someone' changes the CD and.... flash dance!


      or even better, watch it here:

      Firsthand Account From An Israeli Soldier

      by Tamar Yonah

      This email made the rounds on the internet and came my way. Though it has not been confirmed, the news reports and testimonies that we do know that took place on the Mavi Marmara do not seem to contradict what much of this email contains. It's about what the 'peaceful humanitarians' [sic] did on the Free Gaza Flotilla to our IDF soldiers.  
      I copied and pasted the entire email for you to read for yourselves.
      -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      *Hello Uncle Erwin,***
      They cut his ab muscles horizontally and by hand spilled his guts out.


      This is Amir writing you after reading what you sent to my father, Eitan.  

      As you know, it was my unit and my friends who were on the ship. My commander was injured badly as a result of the "pacifists" violence. I want to tell you how he was injured so you could tell the story. It shows just how horrible and inhuman were the activists. My commander was the first soldier that rappelled down from the helicopter to the ship. 
      When he touched ground, he got hit in the head with a pole and stabbed in the stomach with a knife.

      When he drew out his secondary weapon-a handgun (his primary weapon was a regular paintball gun: "Tippman 98 custom") he was shot in the leg. He managed to fire a single shot before he was tossed from the balcony by 4 
      Arab activists, to the lower deck (a 12 feet fall). He was then dragged by other activists to a room in the lower deck were he was stripped down by 2 activists. They took off his vest, helmet and shirt, leaving him 
      with only his pants and shoes on. When they finished they took a knife and expanded the wound he already had in his stomach. They cut his ab muscles horizontally and by hand spilled his guts out. When they finished they raised him up and walked him on the deck outside. He was conscious the whole time.

      (Photo taken of a wounded and stabbed IDF soldier on the Mavi Marmara vessel.  Notice a knife in the left hand photo, in the bottom right corner.  Read more about the story of this photograph here.  )

      If you are asking yourself why they did all that, here comes the reason. 
      They wanted to show the soldiers their commander's body so they will be demoralized and scared. Luckily, when they walked him on the deck a soldier saw him and managed to shoot the activist that was walking him 
      down the outside corridor. He shot him with a special non-lethal bullet that didn't kill him. My commander managed to jump from the deck to the water and swim to an army rescue boat (his guts still out of his 
      body, and now in salty sea water). That was how he was saved. The activists that did this to him are alive, now in Turkey, and treated as heroes.

      I'm sorry if I described this with too many details, but I thought it was necessary for the credibility. Please tell this story to anyone who will listen. I think that these days you are one of Israel's best spokesman.

      *Thanks uncle Erwin, *

      * *

      *Shabbat Shalom!***

      * *

      *Amir***

      ...And here is another 'peaceful-humanitarian' stabbing ANOTHER Israel soldier.... from behind and as he turns.

      Sink Those Gaza Flotilla Ships!

      by Tamar Yonah


      ...the reaction from the 'peace' vessel to the Israeli navy: "F- You", they replied.
      Sink those Gaza flotilla ships!  By disregarding the law, de-stabilizing any peace ('non violence' at this time) that exists, invading the shores which a  sovereign country, Israel, secures,  the Gaza Flotilla should be stopped, it's criminals arrested, and the ships sunk.  These people are criminals. They launched themselves onto the sea, to perpetrate a pre-meditated crime.  They knew and instigated the danger and consequences that a crime like this would incur.  The governments of the foreign nationals aboard the ship should have stopped them knowing that their citizens were off to commit a crime that could have dangerous international repercussions.  The (reportedly) two Israelis (Israeli Arabs or Leftists? Not yet known)  who boarded the ship to set sail should also be arrested and  tried for treason or whatever other laws they broke.  All these people who set sail to purposely defy the law and support terrorists should be considered terrorists themselves.  These people fought Israeli forces with knives, and beat Israeli soldiers with clubs, injuring several IDF soldiers.  According to updated news reports, the Israeli soldiers also faced LIVE FIRE and weapons were found being carried on board the ship.

      These terrorists and terrorist supporters defied, purposely defied, with hatred and low class cussing, orders from the Israeli government and Navy.  When ordered by the Israel navy to leave the area and set sail to an Israeli port just north of Gaza, where their gifts [sic] to the terrorists would be delivered to Gaza if it met Israeli security measures, were replied with a 'negative, negative' and a "F-You!" Literally!  I have the audio and am trying to get it up on this blog.  In the meantime, watch this video of the LIVE warning the Israeli navy gave to the terrorists, and hear the flotilla leaders reply that they will not listen to the warning, replying, 'negative, negative'.

      Text:

      Israel Navy: "Mavi Marmara, you are approaching an area of hostilities which is under a naval blockade. The Gaza area coastal region and Gaza harbor are closed to all maritime traffic. The Israeli government supports delivery of humanitarian supplies to the civilian population in the Gaza Strip and invites you to enter the Ashdod port. Delivery of supplies in accordance with the authorities' regulations will be through the formal land crossings and under your observation, after which you can return to your home ports on the vessels on which you have arrived." (taken from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs site)

      The audio which I have, but have not been able to upload so far for this blog, states the following:


      "This is the Israeli Navy. You are approaching the area of hostilities which is under a naval blockade The Gaza area is a combat zone.  By entering this zone, you are putting your vessel at risk. You are hereby ORDERED to change your course and refrain from entering the area.  If you ignore this order, in attempt to enter the  blockaded  area, the Israel navy will be FORCED to take all the necessary measures, including boarding your vessel in order to enforce this blockade.  Captain be aware that you are violating a legal naval blockade and that the organizers and captain of this sail (?) will be held responsible." 

      Later the news reporter plays the audio of the reaction from the 'peace' vessel to the Israeli navy: "F- You", they replied. 

      (Hear the audio (a mix of Hebrew AND English) directly from Israel Broadcasting Authourity 'IBA' news.  Click HERE and move the slider up to 7min10 sec and listen until 8 min 30sec.)

      Afterwards, the invading vessel played Palestinian war songs!

      In the meantime, these 'humanitarians' have caused the spread of violence with igniting riots in Turkey in front of the Israeli embassy, with an attempt to storm it.  Hamas leaders in Gaza are calling on Arabs to riot inside and outside Israel.

      Israel secures these shores from the Oslo Agreements.  It was agreed upon and signed between the parties involved.  The Israeli government needs to send a strong message to the world and it's terrorist supporters, that intruding on Israel's sovereignty and/or hurting her security, will be stopped, and all participants will suffer the consequences.  This is an act of war against Israel.  The terrorists and their supporters on board these ships must be arrested, tried in court, and the Israeli navy should sink those vessels!  Those who sent their ships on this criminal and war-like act should pay a heavy financial price for their disgraceful participation in this terror supporting crime. 

      Israel, should sink those ships.

      Difficult 'Deys' Ahead for American Jews

      by Tamar Yonah

      Since I have not been able to post for a while, I am letting someone I know be a guest blogger.  The views in this blog post below do not necessarily represent my opinion or that of Arutz 7's.

       
      Difficult 'Deys' Ahead for American Jews
      by "Crypto-Zionist"
       
      Many American Jews postpone Aliyah because they think that the financial situation in the US will soon get better.  It will not because the US economy is being deliberately taken down, as will be shown in this article.

      When the economy crashes, we know from Jewish history, who will be blamed as a scapegoat.  The public sees all the Jewish names in Wall Street such as Bernie Madoff, Maurice "Hank" Greenberg of AIG, and Lloyd Blankfein of Goldman Sachs, the current and previous chairmen of the Federal Reserve, Alan Greenspan and Ben Bernanke, and Dominique Strauss-Kahn, head of the IMF, not realizing that these are only "court Jews."  
      In fact, so widespread is the belief in the "Jewish Bankers" that many Americans incorrectly think that Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner and economic advisor Paul Volcker are Jewish.

      The government could even deliberately use increased anti-Israel rhetoric to fan the flames of antisemitism among the public.This is already happening today.
      For example, recently President Obama blamed Israel for lack of peace in the middle east that costs the US significantly in "blood and treasure." (thus connecting Israel to two antisemitic motifs, Jews' alleged greed for gold and the blood libel).

      As for the decline of the US economy, it is not a result of misguided policies, but it is deliberately being brought down so the dollar can be replaced by a global currency, as the first step to a world government.

      While the powers-that-be are not likely to tell us this explicitly, they drop hints from time to time. We should also keep in mind that their modus operandi is to effect change, by creating crises, and then propose a solution which will bring us closer to world government.
      Secondly, as we will show below, many steps were required for the current financial crisis to occur.  They had to change laws, lower the interest rate to almost zero, etc.

      And yet anyone who protested was silenced. The powers-that-be might feign incompetence and stupidity to cover their tracks (i.e. we had no idea that lowering the interest rate to about zero would create a housing bubble), but one question should be asked: Did they benefit from the current situation ?
      Considering all the bonuses received from government bailout money and the fact that no one is going to jail, the answer should be yes.
      For example, why isn't Hedge Fund titan John Paulson being tried in the current SEC case against Goldman Sachs, leaving one with the suspicion that the whole thing is just a dog and pony show. 

      "The Conspiracy Theorists are right" -- Political analyst Dick Morris, speaking on Sean Hannity's program, agreed that a decision by the G20 for massive cash infusions and vast new powers for the IMF prove that the "conspiracy theorists were right" and that there is a plan for a one world currency.
      http://www.thenewamerican.com/economy/28-commentary/959

      A recent article on msn money -- "Are you ready for a global currency?"
      http://moneycentral.msn.com/content/banking/p91828.asp

      "Goodbye, dollar. So long, euro and yen. Hello, dey! Dey? It's a proposed combination of the three currencies, 'Dollars, 'Euros' & 'Yen', which could eventually form the basis of a global currency. ...Another benefit: no more national currency crises, which have riled Argentina, Mexico, Thailand and Russia in recent years." -- i.e.,  no more currency crises, which the JP Morgan Chase, Goldman Sachs caused.
      Recall that Goldman Sachs showed the Greek government how to cook the books so they could be accepted into the EU.

      "Greek Debt Crisis -- How Goldman Sachs Helped Greece to Mask its True Debt"
      http://www.spiegel.de/international/europe/0,1518,676634,00.html

      Already in 1988, the Economist printed an article "Get Ready for a Phoenix" which predicted that in 30 years (2018), all currencies, such as the dollar, yen, etc., will be replaced by a new global currency called the Phoenix.
      The Phoenix is a mythical bird which rose from its ashes, just as the world currency is to rise from the ashes of a global financial crisis.

      *Catastrophic Loss of Jobs in the US, planned or accidental ?

      In 1992, Presidential candidate Ross Perot, warned that NAFTA, the free trade agreement, will lead to a "giant sucking sound" of jobs crossing the border.
      Then, we were told that we would lose only  "primitive" manufacturing jobs -- because US workers can't compete with Chinese workers who earn a dollar a day -- but, they promised, we would get better high-tech jobs if the US lowered tariffs.

      But if globalization is perfectly "natural", why did the US have to "help it along" by giving it most favored nation status to China, allow China to keep the yuan artificially low for years without a whimper, and allow China and other Asian countries to block US imports (South Korea has an 8% tariff on American cars)

      Where are the "new jobs" we were promised ? If all those "new jobs" had replaced the lost manufacturing jobs, then --

      Why does the US still have such a high trade deficit ?
      Why are some cities, such as Flint, Michigan, being deindustrialized and returned in part to nature.
      How can a 50 year-old factory worker be retrained to work in high-tech ?

      As for all those "new jobs" in IT, many were lost to India because of outsourcing. 
      Not only software development, but call centers, medicine (radiology), even law, are all being outsourced to India.
      Why has the US had zero net job growth from 2000-2009 ?


      "There has been zero net job creation since December 1999. No previous decade going back to the 1940s had job growth of less than 20 percent. Economic output rose at its slowest rate of any decade since the 1930s as well. "

      Seeing that globalism just doesn't work, why doesn't the US raise tariffs to protect its jobs ? 
      Why did GM (now Government Motors) take the bailout money from the government to open factories .... in China and India ?  

      "GM plans to export cars from China to the US ... General Motors is planning to build cars in China and import them into the United States, a strategy that could trigger further job losses and union anger in the US... A plan to shift a greater proportion of the struggling car-maker's production overseas is still being negotiated with US politicians, who have already lent GM $15.4bn (£10.18bn) in order to keep it afloat and safeguard its 90,000 US workers."

      "However, a spokesman for GM in Shanghai said it was 'only a matter of time' before vehicles made in China are imported into the company's home market, in another blow to the US car industry."

      When American companies open plants overseas, not only do they have much lower wages and can ignore US government regulations such as those of OSHA, EPA, etc., but in addition,they get a tax break from the US government.  Why ?

      But economists knew, such as Princeton Prof. Alan Blinder.  He knew that "free" trade would lead to a loss of jobs.

      Why does the goverment refuse to solve the problem of Illegal aliens  ?
      Illegal aliens replace low-income workers,  bankrupt border states such as California, and are more likely to commit crimes.
      "Border states deal with more illegal immigrant crime than most, data suggest"
      "Arizona lawmakers say their new immigration enforcement law will help them fight an illegal immigrant crime wave that is sweeping the state, a claim that is backed by studies and statistics that suggest border states have a disproportionately high number of criminals who are illegal immigrants"

      Why hasn't the US built a fence on the border with Mexico ? 
      If there is such a threat of terrorism, that heightened security checks are required at airports, why is the border left wide open ?

      Why are illegal aliens given free medical care and their children are given free education in public schools in Spanish -- even terrorists in Gaza want to learn English, but Mexican American children in Los Angeles are instructed in Spanish.

      Why are the children of illegal aliens born in the US ("anchor babies") given citizenship ?
      Or perhaps there is a deliberate policy to allow illegal immigration in order to lower the living standards of Americans and turn America into a multicultural and multilingual society

      Returning to the question of the financial crisis, was it planned ?
      "'You never want a serious crisis to go to waste,' Rahm Emanuel, Mr. Obama's new chief of staff, told a Wall Street Journal conference of top corporate chief executives this week."
      http://online.wsj.com/article/SB122721278056345271.html

      So many steps were required for the financial crisis to occur; policy makers blindly guessing would have been right at least half of the time, but the crisis seems to have required an amazing series of wrong decisions.

      * Community Reinvestment Act or CRA passed by the Carter Administration in 1977 which pressured banks to lend to people who couldn't afford to buy a house.

      * ACORN used the CRA to pressure banks to lend to sub prime borrowers.

      * Alan Greenspan lowered the interest rate in 2004 creating the housing bubble.

      * The Glass-Steagall Act of 1933 was repealed in 1999 allowed commercial banks to act as investment banks, i.e.  it allowed banks to gamble with their depositors' savings.

      * The sub-prime loans were bundled as Collateralized Debt Obligations or CDO's. The rating agencies such as Moody's were pressured by the banks to give these junk bonds a triple-A rating.

      * NY Governor Elliot Spitzer tried to warn of the practice of predatory lending (banks lending to borrowers who were likely to default on the loans), so he had to be silenced. And soon after Elliot Spitzer wrote an article in the Washington Post warning of the practice, the government, which had tapped his phone, leaked the information about his trysts with call girls.

      "Up until Wednesday, there was one single, lonely politician who stood in the way of this creepy little assignation at the bankers’ bordello: Eliot Spitzer ..."

      Thus, those American Jews who are sitting on their suitcases should make Aliyah now.
      The economy will not appreciably recover, because the decline of America has been planned, and the plight of Jews in America is likely to get much worse.

      In a society that has become addicted to consumerism, when their material wealth is taken away, Americans will become very upset. They will need someone to blame, and the Jews will be a convenient scapegoat ... and the government might "help" them arrive at that decision with its anti-Israel rhetoric.

      The Jews live well -- they will say -- they control Wall St., which plundered our savings with all of the bank bailouts.
      Thus, a Saturday Night Live skit a couple of years ago singled out Jewish bankers -- Savings and Loan owners Herb and Marion Sandler and George Soros with a Dr. Strangelove accent -- as having plundered average Americans.
       

      Another example was Maureen Dowd's column -- Maureen Down of the NY Times, not Pat Buchanan or David Duke -- where she set a record for the largest number of antisemitic metaphors in a column, with phrases such as "blood-sucking banks", "Goldmine Sachs" and her statement that "the bankers who took government money and then gave out obscene bonuses are the same self-interested sorts Jesus threw out of the temple."


      Disgruntled Americans will complain that the Jews are also communists (Jews are always accused of being both communists and capitalists), such as Rahm Emanuel, David Axelrod, Cass Sunstein, etc., and took away our freedom, turning America into a communist country.

      Some may also cry, "Israel, which receives so many of our tax-dollars, refuses to make peace with the Palestinians, and as a result, our boys are being killed in the Middle East to protect Israel."  
      Add  to that, General Petraeus' recent statement that "America's relationship with Israel is important, but not as important as the lives of America's soldiers."

      And terror has now invaded our shores, requiring additional loss of liberty under the Patriot Act.
      They will explain it as a result of "blowback" because of America's support for Israel.
      They will lament that the all-powerful Jewish/Zionist lobby controls Washington -- such as Pat Buchanan's recent comments that there are too many Jews on the Supreme Court --  and the White House will encourage them to think so, just as  Pres. George H W Bush did with his statement in 1991 that “I’m up against some powerful forces. They’ve got something like 1,000 lobbyists on the Hill working the other side of the question. We’ve got one lonely little guy here doing it.”

      Have a good 'Dey'.
