Doing It the Arab Way
by Beth Goodtree
Dec 02, '03 / 7 Kislev 5764
Maybe the reason the Arab Palestinians hate Israel and Jews so much is
because Israel treats them differently than their Arab brethren. If Israel
were to deal with them in the same way, maybe there would be no problem with
Yasser Arafat and his followers. Therefore, I propose that Israel begin
dealing with them in exactly the same way as her Arab neighbors.
Let’s start with Arafat’s people who occupy Lebanon. They have no legal
status, are prohibited from practicing dozens of professions, lack any social
security, are banned from acquiring real estate, and their freedoms of
movement and association are restricted. It must be an acceptable way to deal
with them, because we have yet to hear a peep from the UN, the EU, Russia or
the United States. Nor is Arafat and his gang of terrorists screaming for
Lebanon to cut out a piece of herself and give it to them. Israel should
follow the Lebanese example.
Syria also deals with the Palestinian Arabs in a manner different from
Israel. None of them has citizenship, they are denied the right to vote and
they do not get Syrian passports. Sounds good to me. There isn’t a single
complaint from the international community and you never hear of any
Palestinian Arabs blowing up busloads of Syrian families. Israel should treat
them likewise.
Egypt, Libya and Kuwait all have a unique way of handling the Palestinian
Arabs. Kuwait expelled tens of thousands of long-term residents in the wake
of the 1991 Gulf war. This left the Gazans among them, who carried Egyptian
travel documents, with nowhere to go, because the Egyptian government denied
them entry. In 1995, the Libyan government demonstrated its displeasure at
Arafat's peace negotiations with Israel by not renewing the one-year
residency visas of some 30,000 Palestinians and began summary deportations.
Expelling troublemakers or potential troublemakers is an acceptable practice
in other Arab countries. Israel should start implementing this same practice,
just as her neighbors have been doing. A good analogy would be if one had
termites in their house, you wouldn’t give them a portion of your house in
exchange for the termites leaving the rest of the house alone. Those termites
are never going to leave your house alone, so the only option is to get rid
of them.
Also, Arab countries, as well as the Palestinian Arabs, insist on their
territories being Judenrein. There are no impassioned cries of ‘crimes
against humanity’ coming from Kofi Anan or the UN members, so this must be
acceptable. Therefore, Israel should do likewise and make its
territory ‘Islamrein.’ No jobs for Moslems, take over their properties,
outlaw their religion (like Saudi Arabia does to any religion other than
Islam), and use their headstones for urinals and paving blocks. Their mosques
can be torn down and recycled into new settlement housing. It should work out
fine, since the UN never raised a single objection or resolution when it was
done to Jews.
Meanwhile, the Islamic Conference recently called for a boycott of all
Israeli goods, products, inventions, etc. It would seem only fair that Israel
boycott anything Arab. And while Israel is at it, maybe they can help the
Arab-led boycott along a bit. Any new medical breakthroughs - in fact, all
Jewish medical assistance - should be withheld from Arabs. Maybe we can
grandfather in such medical breakthroughs as the polio vaccine, for starters.
And while at the Islamic Conference, the Malaysian Prime Minister told a
summit of Islamic leaders that "Jews rule the world by proxy" and the world's
1.3 billion Muslims should unite, using non-violent means for a "final
victory." (Final solution, maybe?) This statement in particular strikes me as
ignorant to the point of being tragically humorous.
I looked at the latest statistics regarding world religions and the pie chart
didn’t even include Judaism, because there are so few of us. In fact, there
are 18 times as many traditional Chinese (in a country that bans religion),
as there are Jews. There are 35% more Juche’s than there are Jews – and I
never even heard of Juche. (Apparently, Juche is the only government-
authorized ideology in North Korea, to the point of excluding all other
religions. "Juche" means "self-reliance" in the Korean language. So how does
that effect the cost of kim chee?)
While I may have suggested that Israel do things ‘the Arab way,’ for Israel
to remain Jewish, it could not. Discrimination, stealing, lying, disrespect
of others, murder, forced conversion and thievery are all the things which
Judaism eschews. To do any of these things would condemn us as individuals
and as a people. On the other hand, it speaks volumes about all the
Arab/Islamic states that Israel must deal with.
