Calls for crackdown on Jerusalem Arabs

LAURIE COPANS

JERUSALEM: Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert yesterday called for reviving the practice of demolishing the homes of attackers' families, while his chief deputy proposed cutting some Arab neighbourhoods off from the rest of the city.

A day earlier, a Palestinian driving a bulldozer killed three Israelis on a main Jerusalem street, before security forces shot him dead.

The attacker, east Jerusalem resident Hussam Dwayat, 30, had no problem moving around the Jewish part of Jerusalem. In the wake of the attack, there were calls to reconsider at least some of the benefits the 250,000 Palestinian residents of Jerusalem receive, such as residency and Israeli ID cards.

Olmert said: "If we have to demolish houses, we will demolish houses. If we have to revoke social rights, we will revoke social rights."

Olmert's dovish vice premier, Haim Ramon, proposed cutting off the attackers' home village and others in east Jerusalem, where about 50,000 Arabs live, by rerouting the West Bank separation barrier to put the villages outside Jerusalem's boundaries. It was a rare call by a senior Israeli official to effectively redivide Jerusalem.-AP

they have stolen everything from these people , well obviously not everything, they still have a bit of the city their fathers have owned since generations uncounted in an unbroken line . there is nothing that the palestinian has , that is not encompassed by the psychotic greed of zionism . no scrap however small that does not warrant the spilling of more arab blood . they have been a curse on the geo-political map , and those dark forces that promoted this horrible ideology on the world , should blush for shame .

This world would be a better place if the state of Israel did not exist.

Come to an arrangement with Hamas or perhaps Saudi Arabia and get them to police East Jerusalem.

They know how to deal with trouble making Arabs.

Any people that oppressers another to such an extent that their only recourse is to offer themselves as weapons against their oppressors cannot claim to be superior to those they persecute.

As Arch Bish Tutu says, the Israeli's run a much tighter form of apartheid than the Souh Africans ever did. And they too will be consigned to history.

The report says he had no problem moving around Jerusalem. In fact as only one report mentioned, near its end in the Guardian yesterday and in passing, the attacker was one of the thousands of Arabs of East Jerusalem who have been told that they have no permission for their house having been built, and it will be demolished. Since the occupation of East Jerusalem in 1967 it has been impossible for Arabs to obtain housing permission, whilst thousands of new immigrant Jewish settlements have been built, and are still being announced. It is ethnic cleansing and has been so since the start. This attacker had had his demolition delayed whilst he paid what was quoted as "thousands of dollars" in fines for having had the impudence to live in a house in the land his forefathers had lived in for hundreds of years. And the Israeli police spokesman Mickey Rosenfeld, going on about these terrible Arabs on television, speaks with a London accent, which at least makes a change from an Israeli spokesman with an American accent. None of these facts about demolition and the increased ethnic cleansing of East Jerusalem needless to say are reported generally, though the Press know these facts daily if they have any connection with the situation. The Western media and politicians such as Blair and his clone Milliband are complicit in the genocide of the Palestinian people. This guy in the bulldozer snapped, and went berserk in a bulldozer such as has been used to demolish thousands of Palestinian homes for years. And the response of the Israeli PM, Olmert? We have to demolish the attacker's home!!!

Don't expect any condemnation of Israel any century soon from Westmidden as too many muppets in all the parties have been bought and paid for by zionist money. As to Miliband, he's apparently a diehard zionist and if he ever gets elected leader of the nuLabourFascist party then expect our troops to be involved in more middle east wars.

You mean as in:

"When he became a candidate for the leadership of the Labour Party in 1994, Gideon Meir, a senior official at the Israeli Embassy in London, introduced Tony to Michael Levy (an extremely wealthy Jewish businessmen). Levy agreed to help Blair to become leader of the party. With the help of four other Jewish businessmen (Sir Emmanuel Kaye, Sir Trevor Chinn, Maurice Hatter, and David Goldman) Levy provided Blair with £7m. This money paid for his campaign plus the running of his private office, and allowed Blair to become independent of Labour Party funding. Levy was awarded a lordship and became Blair's special envoy to the Middle East."

From an article by: Michael Dickinson, called "The Catholicization of Tony" Blair's Conversion.

Oh and it's BICOM, not AIPAC

Let the Arabs deal with Arabs I say. A few beheadings will shut up them up. No point demolishing houses especially when they are empty.
