Israel to bomb Europeans

O.lmert | 23.10.2006 12:05

The men with the pictures of Auschwitz on their office walls are coming for us.

I'll bomb
I'll bomb


Sources in the Israeli military say that Israel would bomb Unifil sites in southern Lebanon if Israeli warplanes are intercepted.
An Israeli newspaper, Maarif, reported on Sunday that the statements came after several European countries which have been putting pressure on Israel to stop its violation of Lebanese air space.

Israel claims it will carry on breaking international law and humiliating Lebanon by infringing its airspace.

Amir Peretz, the defence minister, was said to have told the weekly cabinet meeting: "The Lebanese government is weak so we can do what we like and if the European troops try to stop us we will slaughter them also."

“As long as we feel like it, we have no intention of stopping the flights over Lebanon."

Israel has continued to carry out flights over Lebanese territory despite a UN-brokered ceasefire since August 14.

The flights have been increasingly criticised, with France - which currently heads the UN peacekeepers in Lebanon - speaking out last Friday against the violations.

Michele Alliot-Marie, the French defence minister, told reporters at United Nations headquarters at the time: "These violations are extremely dangerous because they may be felt as hostile by forces of the coalition that could be brought to retaliate in case of self-defence and it would be a very serious incident."

“ Peretz said on Sunday that the purpose of the United Nations Interim Force in Lebanon (Unifil), was to act against Hezbollah and letb Israel do as it likes.

"Unifil is meant to act against Hezbollah and not against Israel," he said. "Israel's security is more important than the security of Lebanon.

On July 27, Israeli warplanes bombed a UN observation centre in southern Lebanon and killed four observers and they say they will do so again.

Wilful mistranslation, libel and slander

What a load of bollocks you write. What a fervid turgid imagination you have. Oh dear! The big bad Jews are coming to get us!

Not.

Here is a proper translation of the Maariv article - you can't even spell the name of the newspaper correctly!

"Despite the fact that the security services are very disturbed about the threatening voices emanating from France, security sources emphasised yesterday: "We will continue to fly over Lebanon". The security services added that any IDF unit which is opened fire upon and feels it is in danger is permitted to return fire and destroy the source of the threat to it."

Not exactly "slaughtering Europeans' now is it?

"... Israeli security sources added that "the flights in question are intended for intelligence photography purposes. As long as Resolution 1701 has not been fully implemented, and while Syria and Iran continue to arm Hizbollah with weapons, as has been happening over the last few days, it is clear that we will have no intention of stopping flying."
Referring to the possibility of UN anti-aircraft UN fire being fired against IAF planes, security services estimated that "it is hard to imagine a situation where a French force wil shoot at us, but in any event, at the present moment stopping flights is not on the agenda at all".

...snip...

Following the row France yesterday clarified to the Israeli Foreign Ministry that UNIFIL will NOT open fire on Israeli Air Force planes, unless they are attacked first."

Now Mr. Lying Idiot, tell me where in that article is a mention of Israel "slaughtering", "attakcing Europenas", "humiliating Lebanon", or any of the other breathless lies and slander that you have just libelled Israel with.

See  http://www.nrg.co.il/online/HP_1.html for the article itself - in Hebrew if you can read, Mr. Illiterate.

Not A Mistranslation

After their murder of UN observers during their assault on Lebanon, one wonders.

UNIFIL has ordered these illegal violations of Lebanese soveignty - and a UN Security Council Resolution - to cease. Israel responded with threats.

I don't know why you're defending them ...

Zionism, Irrelevant Within A Generation


tsk!

ank, Jordan can't even read English properly without projecting the most outrageously reaching interpretations that would make a Hollywood contract lawyer blanch.

He is obsessed with Jews being behind Al Qaeda= nuff said!

zionists in his cornflakes box

Yeah, but where would any Indymedia discussion of Israel without a comment from Jordan Thornton of Saskatchewan, telling us that Zionism will be Irrelevant within a Generation -- because by then he'll have finished the box of cornflakes in his pantry where the Zionists have established an intelligence post?

Why is this innacurate report still unhidden?

... the central thrust ...

26.10.2006 09:27

... of this piece is however, accurate.

israels position IS that it will do what it dam well likes and woe betide anyone or thing that gets in its way ... which, as has been explicitly stated by the israeli authorities, includes the targeting of international peacekeepers carrying out their assigned duties.

In any other theater, this would be taken as a declaration of war.

And no post about that rotten zionist state would be complete without the sympathisers and the brainless adherents to the zionist party line insulting those that resist this vile racist agenda ...

... probably slightly more paletable than the actcual truth of the matter, which would have to be stated more like this:

'we are israel, we do what we like becuase god told us we was better than the rest and the earth belongs to us' ...

... sort of a PR downer that one, best not mention it.

Um, if the original piece is mistranslated to the point of having to bearing on the original it's inaccurate. You can't argue with that fact- not without looking like a candidate for a brain transplant.

Just because some of us don't share your blind Jewhate doesn't make us Zionists. Perhaps, we just don't want twats like you making us look as stupid & bigotted as you are?

Baffled


... its all type ...

26.10.2006 11:46

... and no crayons I'm afraid, so perhaps you might want to let a grown up re-read to you that which was written ...

israel has deliberately targeted international peacekeepers in the past and has threatened to both ignore their writ and their safety in pursuit of its racist coloniser aims ... is that so complicated?

"blind Jewhate"

... on and on the fantasy goes, accept the dictate of the racist coloniser or be viewed (by some stupid & bigotted twats) and called out loudly, hysterically, unconvincingly as a 'jew hater'.

Boring.

At least the original piece was satire - which is always predicated on the bigger truth - your remarks are merely crude.
