'Palestinians' to sue God over covenant with Abraham
Last week, I reported on the 'Palestinian Authority's plans to sue the United Kingdom for issuing the Balfour Declaration in 1917.
And as many of you know, the Bible says that God promised the land of Israel to the Jewish people.
So what's a 'Palestinian' to do? It's easy. They're going to sue God over His Making that covenant with Abraham.
“The God of Abraham had no right to promise this land to the Jews. Being
all-knowing, He had to have foreseen that some 4,000 years later, we
would suddenly decide that we have a national identity tied to this
land”, said a spokesperson for the Palestinian Authority. The
Palestinians claim that God should have known that they would seek to
retroactively deny the rich and well-documented history of Jews in the
land of Israel and therefore should not have promised it to Abraham and
his descendants. “Although we were living in Arabia for thousands of
years after the covenant, God really should have taken us into
consideration when making such promises” said the P.A. spokesperson. We
reached out to God for comment via a note in the Wailing Wall. The
Almighty issued a statement through his spokesperson, the angel Gabriel,
“Are you serious with this sh*t??? I have much more important things
to worry about. There’s a war in Syria killing hundreds of thousands of
people in my name, the ice caps are melting, and I’m trying to figure
out how to stop the bees from dying off so you guys don’t starve to
death. I don’t have time for this nonsense.”
The Palestinians assert that time is a construct invented by God, and he
is simply avoiding having to address the issue. An archangel, speaking
on condition of anonymity, said that God is indeed worried about the
lawsuit since there are no good lawyers in heaven. “All of the most
cutthroat and lawyers are either in the U.S. Government or in Hell, so
God is really at a loss here. He won’t say it publicly, but he’s
scared.”
'Palestinian' refusal to recognize Jewish state is root cause of the conflict
Here's Prime Minister Netanyahu speaking before Sunday's cabinet meeting in response to the 'Palestinians' calling the Balfour declaration a 'crime against humanity.'
Let's go to the videotape.
Saturday was the 96th anniversary of the Balfour declaration.
90 years ago today, 78% of 'Palestine' was given to the Hashemites
90 years ago today, the League of Nations approved the British Mandate for 'Palestine.' As part of that approval, 78% of the country's territory was turned over to Britain's ally, the Hashemite family of Jordan.
The formal objective of the League of Nations Mandate system was to administer parts of the defunct Ottoman Empire, which had been in control of the Middle East since the 16th century, "until such time as they are able to stand alone."[5] The mandate document formalised the division of the British protectorates - Palestine, to include a national home for the Jewish people, under direct British rule, and Transjordan, an Emirate governed semi-autonomously from Britain under the rule of the Hashemite family.[1]
Note that Wikipedia has done some clever editing above. They have changed what the document said to make it sound like 'Palestine' would include a national home for the Jewish people. But this is what the preamble to the mandate said:
Whereas the Principal Allied Powers have also agreed that the Mandatory should be responsible for putting into effect the declaration originally made on November 2nd, 1917, by the Government of His Britannic Majesty, and adopted by the said Powers, in favour of the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people,
it being clearly understood that nothing should be done which might
prejudice the civil and religious rights of existing non-Jewish
communities in Palestine, or the rights and political status enjoyed by
Jews in any other country.[28]
Note - no mention of 'Palestine' 'including' a national home for the Jewish people.
'Palestinian' television: Europe issued Balfour declaration because they couldn't stand the Jews
As part of a special program for the anniversary of the founding of the Fatah terror organization, 'Palestinian' television told its viewers that Europe "suffered a tragedy by providing refuge for the Jews." Having Jews living among them placed a great burden on Europeans: Faced with the Jews' schemes, Europe
could not bear their character traits, monopolies, corruption, and their
control and climbing up positions in government."
Let's go to the videotape.
Actually, what Europe saw as an ideal solution for getting rid of the Jews was Hitler's final solution, which the 'Palestinian Authority' is now doing its best to implement.
What do you think was the greatest crime in human history? The Holocaust comes to mind. So do many of the pogroms in Europe starting with the crusades and continuing right up to the end of World War II. Of course, I'm being pretty parochial. So how about the Armenian genocide? The Sudanese war on non-Muslims? The Hutu's and Tutsi's of Rwanda?
'Palestinian Authority' television, run by our 'peace partner,' has decided that there's something worse - much worse - than all that. Would you believe the Balfour declaration?
Every year on the anniversary of the Balfour Declaration, Palestinian Authority leaders and official media issue harsh statements attacking it. According to the Palestinian narrative, Jews have no history in the land and therefore have no right to exist as a state. Consequently, Israel exists only because of the Balfour Declaration.
This year, the PA Ministry of Information and the Ministry of Culture organized a workshop for high school girls in Tulkarem in cooperation with the city's Education Administration. The girls wrote "letters of sorrow and pain to the Queen of the United Kingdom, Elizabeth II, and to the British Foreign Minister, William Hague, since it was the letter by that country's Foreign Minister Arthur James Balfour, which has caused the Palestinian people ongoing suffering," reported the official PA daily.
One girl wrote to Queen Elizabeth:
"The real reasons that caused Balfour to give his dark promise, first and foremost [the desire] to be rid of the Jews in Europe and to award them a prize for the genocidal weapons which they had invented, which helped Britain to annihilate more people."
PA leaders and official media have published claims on many occasions that the establishment of Israel was a European plot to get rid of the Jews in Europe because the Jews were a burden on European society. The Balfour Declaration is cited by many Palestinians as proof that Zionism was not a Jewish idea but a colonialist idea, and it was this idea that the Palestinian girl was expressing in her letter.
Let's go to the videotape.
Here's another one. Let's go to the videotape.
Despite the PA's claims in English to the international community that it recognizes Israel, the PA openly continues to indoctrinate its people with significant historical revision, to reject and deny Israel's right to exist.
I am an Orthodox Jew - some would even call me 'ultra-Orthodox.' Born in Boston, I was a corporate and securities attorney in New York City for seven years before making aliya to Israel in 1991 (I don't look it but I really am that old :-). I have been happily married to the same woman for thirty-five years, and we have eight children (bli ayin hara) ranging in age from 13 to 33 years and nine grandchildren. Four of our children are married! Before I started blogging I was a heavy contributor on a number of email lists and ran an email list called the Matzav from 2000-2004.
