DEATH STALKS THE HOLY LAND
By Alan Caruba

Now the Palestinian suicide bombers have killed still more Israelis. In downtown Jerusalem where they were shopping or just enjoying a bit of nightlife, bombers put an end to more lives, injured still more people, none of whom was waging a war against them. These Muslims were doing the same thing other Muslims did on September 11, 2001, when their war on the West came to the United States.

Americans are slowly and reluctanty coming to the realization that no one is safe anywhere so long as this Islamic madness exists. It is the kind of insanity that permitted Osama bin Laden to issue a "fatwah" in 1968 saying that Muslims should kill Americans, military and civilian alike. We didn't take it seriously then, but we are now in Afghanistan hunting for the man, while liberating Afghanis to listen, once again, to music and to let their children fly kites, both of which were forbidden by the Taliban.

What is happening in Israel is the fate of the West, if it is permitted to to continue. It is a microcosm of the hatred Islam has preached in its mosques throughout the world. Israel is the West. Israel is Judaism and Christianity. Israel is a Holy Land sacred to both Judaism and Christianity and illegitimately claimed by Islam.

Death stalks the Holy Land because there will be no real life in Israel until the vicious killing stops. The headline in the November 28th. USA Today read "Palestinians fire on shoppers" in Afula, and the story was so routine it was dropped into the back pages of the news section. The next day, another Palestinian bomber had killed himself and three others doing nothing more than taking a ride on a bus. That same day, Palestinians killed an Israeli motorist in a drive-by shooting.

Why is is, the minute a U.S. diplomat arrives to try to engineer "peace," the Palestinians go on a murder rampage? The answer is obvious. They do not want peace with the Israelis. They want to kill them all. With unbelievable hubris, diplomatic representatives of the United States are in Israel to pressure the Israelis into turning over half of Judea and Samaria to the terrorists as a Palestinian state. Imagine if the situation was reversed and foreign diplomats were in the U.S. pressuring President Bush to turn over large portions of Texas and California to Mexico? Millions of Hispanics of Mexican heritage live in the United States. Does this give Mexico a claim on these lands?

What if this was about incidents in Pittsburgh or Dallas or San Mateo? Would we read "Palestinians fire on shoppers" and just move on to the next story? Or would we be howling for an end to such mindless savagery perpetrated in the name of a nation and people that never existed before the founding of Israel in 1948. Before then, they were merely Arabs living in the area designated by the British as a protectorate called Palestine.

There never was a socalled "Palestinian people" until 1967. It is the invention of Yassir Arafat, the father of all terrorists, and it came about after yet another failed Arab war against Israel. There has never been a Palestinian state, and there never will be. It would mean taking a nation the size of New Jersey and lopping off a huge section of it to creat and Arab ghetto.

Unfortunately, the Israelis' own foreign minister, Shimon Peres, is a viper in their midst. He is their Judas. As reported in Ha'aretz on November 25, Peres was quoted as saying, during an interview broadcast on Palestinian television two says earlier, that, "If there are only two or three shooting incidents a day, Israel would not bring it up with the Palestians, on condition that the Palestinian Authority make a 100% effort to prevent such incidents."

This is the worst kind of treachery, since Peres knows that the Palestinian Authority and its allied terrorist groups are responsible for all the terrorism directed against Israel. The notion of an acceptable two or three murders daily of innocent non-combatants is an offense to mankind, no less than the murder of thousands at work in the World Trade Center. Israel is America's front line. We had better win this Islamic war on the West in Israel or those front lines will come again to the U.S.A. and other nations, because we are faced with a greater threat to our way of life than any since the rise of the former Empire of Japan and the Third Reich. We are looking into abyss of a new Dark Ages.
