Recognize a Palestinian What?

This week in New York City, world “leaders” will gather for the United Nations summit. Yes, I put the hypothetical symbols over the word leaders because some of these folks are masquerading as such. To name a few, well, the Western democratic nations like France, Canada, the UK, and Australia, who are publicly asserting their recognition of a so-called “Palestinian” state…yes, another masquerade. I would first offer, when in the course of history has there ever been any such entity? It was not until the late 1960s that the brilliant marketer, Yasser Arafat, aligned a region with a certain group of people and created the modern fallacy for which some have believed.

As I am writing this missive, it is Rosh Hashanah, the Jewish New Year, Shanah tovah! Israel is celebrating its 5,768th anniversary, making America look kinda tiny at 250 years. These are facts, not to be debated, and I would humbly ask, why are there some delusional people seeking to create a nation-state out of a region? I mean, let’s be honest, should we make Appalachia a state?

And here’s a little history lesson that ties into Rosh Hashanah and this whole deranged assertion of recognizing a “Palestinian” state.

The word Palestine was first introduced upon decree of Roman Emperor Hadrian after the Romans put down the Jewish Simon Bar Kokhba revolt, 132-135 AD. Hadrian issued an order seeking to eradicate Jewish history by stating that the name Judea would be changed to Syriac Palaestinia…he also changed Jerusalem to Aelia Capitolina. The word Palaestinia was derived from the word Philistia, the ancient foes of the Jewish people. Furthermore, the ancient Philistines were not indigenous to the region; their ancestry was from Greece. So, let’s get this right: the modern-day word Palestine came from the renaming of Judea as a punishment of the Jewish people for revolting against Rome.

Palestine is a region, not a people. I always joke that when the mindless lemmings and useful idiots go about shouting “Free Free Palestine,” that they are advocating for Israel. When they utter the words “From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free,” they are supporting the original Biblical geographical designation of Israel…ya know, that Country that has been around for 5,768 years. Yes, there have been some obstacles for the Jewish people, which many deny. For most of its existence, the Jewish people have fought to exist, and today is no different; heck, ever since the May 1948 recreation of the State of Israel, they have been fighting for their existence.

Yes, there have been incessant attempts at a “two-state solution,” which has been rejected countless times by one side…Arab. Originally, it was intended to be Israel and Jordan. Nope. The world decided to cut out parts of Israel and give it to the Arabs, calling it the West Bank. Nope, that is Judea and Samaria. Again, history. I recall watching the Jewish people exiting Gaza in 2006, hey, chuckleheads, there is no occupation. And what did the State of Israel get in return? Yep, terrorist attacks, culminating with the inconceivable brutality of October 7, 2023.

Hamas, a designated terrorist organization, is the governing authority of Gaza. The Palestinian Authority, truthfully known as Fatah, is best described as the Palestinian Liberation Organization. Remember, Arafat’s Islamic terrorist group, responsible for the 1973 Munich Olympics kidnapping and murder of Jewish athletes, governs the West Bank. So when I read about dhimmis (read up on that), like French President Macron, UK PM Starmer, Canadian PM Carney, and Australian PM Albanese, affirming their recognition of a “Palestinian state,“ yep, they are sanctioning Islamic terrorism. Imagine what a Palestinian state constitution would look like. Heck, just read the Hamas charter, which calls for the destruction and eradication of the State of Israel and the murder of Jews worldwide. And these three losers claim that Hamas cannot be a part of a Palestinian state? Heck, what about Islamic jihad, Al Quds and Al Aqsa Martyrs Brigade? There are streets in the West Bank named after suicide bombers. Yeah, let’s make that place a recognized state.

The 1000-pound gorilla in the room must be discussed. The only reason why France, the UK, Canada, and Australia are surrendering to Islamic terrorism is that they have allowed Islamo-fascism and terrorism into their countries. They are being held hostage to the original Mad Men, who have become a cancer within many Western countries. And America, take a deep breath, because if it were Kamala Harris in the White House, she would be following suit as well. Never forget that Barack Hussein Obama welcomed members of the Islamic terrorist group, the Muslim Brotherhood, to his June 4, 2009, speech to the Muslim world at Cairo University in Egypt.

I have never seen so-called leaders of Nations so willing to surrender their Country and advance Islamic terrorism. However, look at our streets, America. Ever thought you would see the flag of an Islamic terrorist group being displayed? How about having the flag of an Islamic terrorist group flown in our Nation’s capital after the American flag was ripped down and burned? Or how about having members of our House of Representatives, and candidates for Mayor in our major cities, who support Islamo-fascism and terrorism? Remember, Rep. Rashida Tlaib posts the flag of an Islamic terrorist organization outside her congressional office, for which American taxpayers foot the bill.

These are the types of people who want a designated terrorist organization to be formally recognized as a Nation. These are the people, like the Mayor of Dearborn, Michigan, Abdullah Hammoud, who tell a Christian minister that he is not welcome in his city, all because the minister spoke out against a street being in honor of a supporter of Islamic terrorism, controversial Arab American news publisher, Osama Siblani.

And, oh by the way, America still has not designated the Muslim Brotherhood and its stated affiliated organizations as a terrorist group.

Islamo-fascists worldwide are laughing at us.

Steadfast and Loyal.
