The Silence is Deafening
« on: October 06, 2011, 04:28:52 PM »
How the hypocrisy of the world is revealed...

Last week all we heard was condemnation and disgust at the idea that a mosque was vandalized... Israeli leaders, Rabbis, Professors, the entire circus of Israeli tuchus-kissers, coming out against those who perpetrated the 'vile & shameful' act of 'desecrating a muslim holy site'.

But just last night it was discovered that the arabs once again desecrated one of Judaisms most holy sites, the Tomb of Joseph in Schem. Antisemitic graffiti was drawn on the tomb and was noticed when Jews came to pray the Shlechot prayers {penitential prayers said before Yom Kippur}.

Have any Arab leaders, muslim imams, or ordinary arabs expressed shame or disgust? Nope.... Have any Israeli leaders, Rabbis, or Professors expressed any condolence or regret that such a HOLY site has once AGAIN been so desecrated? Nope!

Why all the crying and begging when a lowly mosque is burned? Why not outrage and anger when JOSEPH HATZADIKS holy tomb is desecrated by dirty animals?

WHEN WILL THIS INDIGNATION CEASE?
You shall make yourself the Festival of Sukkoth for seven days, when you gather in [the produce] from your threshing floor and your vat.And you shall rejoice in your Festival-you, and your son, and your daughter, and your manservant, and your maidservant, and the Levite, and the stranger, and the orphan, and the widow, who are within your cities
Duet 16:13-14

Holy site defaced again

A holy site in Israel has been defaced. Worshipers discovered that the site had graffiti scrawled all over it, including swastikas, when they went there to pray Slichoth prayers on Wednesday night. But this time, not one Israeli politician has condemned the damage. The only religious leaders who have condemned the damage have been the country's two chief rabbis - Yona Metzger and Joseph Amar - and local rabbis in the area. No clergy from other religions have apologized. No Binyamin Netanyahu and no Shimon Peres. No foreign politicians either. That's because this time, the site that was defaced was Joseph's tomb in Shchem, and it was probably defaced by 'Palestinians.'

    Unknown assailants have scrawled graffiti, including swastikas, on the walks of Joseph's Tomb in Nablus. Soldiers and worshippers arriving at the holy site on Wednesday night, exactly one year after the completion of its renovation, rushed to erase the graffiti.

    Shomron Regional Council head Gershon Mesika placed responsibility on the "Palestinian police terrorists."

    Some 1,500 people visited Joseph's Tomb in a special prayer organized by the Shomron Regional Council and the Shechem Echad organization in coordination with the security forces, ahead of Yom Kippur.

    When the first soldiers and worshippers arrived at the site, they immediately painted the graffiti in white and the prayer began.

    Selichot were said throughout the night in different Jewish versions, and the sounds of the shofar were heard across the West Bank city. Participants included Samaria Rabbi Elyakim Levanon and Rabbi David Dudkevitch of Yitzhar, who hosted the Rebbe of Volbroz, visiting from the United States.

    ...

    Israel's Chief Rabbis Yona Metzger and Shlomo Amar expressed their shock and disgust over the damage caused to the holy tomb. "It's unthinkable that the holiest sites serve as a target of revenge between religions," they said in a statement.

    The two called on all religious clerics to strongly condemn the incident and "instill in their followers feelings of respect for the values sacred to members of other religions."

Fat chance. Does anyone smell a double standard?

By the way, the government announced on Thursday that it arrested an 18-year old yeshiva student from the north in connection with the alleged Tuba Zanghariya mosque arson. The arrest was made within a few hours of the fire, but there's a gag order on the case. More details here.

Joseph's Tomb is a microcosm of the whole Oslo Process.  Arabs don't live up to agreements, refuse to respect holy sites of others and claim to want to get along with live Jews while they cannot get along with dead Jews.
We all need to pray for Barack Obama, may the Lord provide him a safe move back to Chicago in January 2,013.

Yeah the arabs sign agreements with the full intention of lying and breaking them when it best suits their aims. The defacement of these holy sites shows why a secular Israeli government is not a proper long term solution for Israel. The Israeli gov't doesn't really feel any connection to these sites so they don't really care.
The city isn't what it used to be. It all happened so fast. Everything went to crap. It's like... everyone's sense of morals just disappeared. Bad economy made things worse. Jobs started drying up, then the stores had to shut down. Then a black man was elected president. He was supposed to change things. He didn't. More and more people turned to crime and violence... The town becomes gripped with fear. Dark times, dark times... I am the hero this town needs. I am... The Coon!!!
