So August twenty sixth, So what eight days from now is the ninety sixth anniversary of the Hebron massacre. This was in Hebron in the Palestine Territory the Mandate under British control after World War One, and sixty seven were killed. Sixty seven Jews were killed at the hands of the Arabs, another fifty eight or so injured, and it bore much of the same resemblance to the October seventh attack by Hamas on Israel. But this was sort of the first of its kind. And this is what Jardina Schwartz, author of ghosts of the Holy War. This is where she begins marking the current trouble like, because this riot in Hebron began what we then have seen for the next ninety six years. The riot was prompted by false rumors that the Jews were planning to attack and demolish the Alli Mosque in Jerusalem. It was not true. It was a lie. It was a rumor that was spread by the Grand Mufti because he was corrupt and he was getting a lot of examination and people were mad at his corruption, the way he was siphoning funds out of these Muslim institutions like the. Schools and. Mosques and such and using it to build all sorts of fancy stuff for himself. And so to quiet the critics, he started spreading this rumor through the mosques that the Jews were planning to attack the Aloxa Mosque. That's also by the way, the Temple Mount. It's a holy site for the Jews. Also, Jews at this time could not own land. They were prohibited under the Ottoman Empire. They were prohibited from owning land. They were second class citizens, and they were you know, regularly discriminated against. And so. This Lie goes out, the rumors get whipped up, and then Hebron there's another mosque called the Ibrahemi Mosque, and that was also part of the rumor, which was after they take Alaxa, they're going to take the Ibrahemi Mosque, And so that prompted the riots and the torture and murder of Jews in Hebron. After this massacre, the British authorities evacuated all of the Jews from the city, took them all out. So why is this the beginning? Again? This is Yardina Schwartz. She appeared on for a conversation with jviiv retig Gour. He's got his YouTube channel, ask Hove anything. He is. A correspondent for the Times of Israel, and she makes the case that this is really the beginning of the Israeli Palestinian conflict. Nineteen twenty nine wasn't the first time tensions had erupted in Palestine between Arabs and Jews. They had been simmering for years, as you mentioned. In nineteen twenty there was the Nebi Musa riots, But nineteen twenty nine was the first mass casualty event of this conflict, and it's Also when the forces that drive this conflict today, particularly Alaxa Mosque and this supposed Jewish plot which continues today to destroy Alexa and rebuild the Jewish Temple, this is when that disinformation campaign begins and we see how it has continued to fuel violence for the last century. I mean, it's no coincidence. That October seventh was called the Alaxa floods, no coincidence that Hamas presents itself as the defenders of Alaxa against the Jews. Their logo there icon. Is Alaxa with guns in front of it, the entire resistance. If you listen to their own words, it's about protecting Alaxa, liberating Alaxa. When the Palestinian leaders talk about liberation, it's not a liberation in the sense that we know it in the West. It's a liberation of holy Muslim land from Jewish contamination. These aren't my word, these aren't their words. Right, any Jews on the land. Right. So when you fast forward to the time when Israel is created, right, that's and then you hear of the the Nakba, which is what the Palestinians and the apologists for Hamas, they cite this as this was the catastrophe where all of the Palestinians, you know, were moved off. Displaced off the land. But I would submit the Nakba was actually a catastrophe because it was a humiliation because these apes, dogs, snakes. All pigs. This is how the Jews were described by the Arabs. They were second class citizens, were the Jews. And after this Hebron massacre, you see the building up of the what would become later the Israel Defense Forces the IDF. At the time, it was called the Haganah, and this is when they began to take a more than just simply a defensive posture, right. The Haganad then said no, we're going to now take active measures, and they actually created some problems apparently inside the Haganah itself, because there were people that are like, no, no, we're just defensive only in that sort of thing. So you end up with the rise of this militia to defend the Jews. And when Israel gets its territory from the Nations, which they were super excited about, even though they only got a tiny little chunk of the massive area that is like Jordan and Egypt and like all of these other massive countries all around them, and they carved out this chunk for the Arabs in the Palestine Mandate, and they carved out area for the Jews in the Palestine Mandate, which was the territory that the British were occupying after World War One when the Ottoman Empire fell, right, so, okay, so Jews are really happy about it. And then they were immediately attacked and they repelled the what six or seven Arab countries that attacked them. That's the humiliation, that's the catastrophe. The catastrophe is that they couldn't get the Jews off of their land. They view it as their land. And how dare the Jews be on this land? You're not allowed to be on this land. Your second class citizens, You don't even you don't get the right to own own land in our societies. Now you get a whole country. Excuse me, No, that's not that is not cool. By the way, a year before the Hebron massacre, the Muslim Brotherhood was founded nineteen twenty eight in Egypt by Hassan Albana, and their stated mission has always been the same, which is the establishment of a global caliphate governed by Sharia law. The Brotherhood has always attempted to position itself as a political organization, but it's political in the way that Lenin was political. Think subversion through infiltration or revolution through stealth. This is a piece by Josh hammer Over at hotair dot com. HAMAS is not merely inspired by the Muslim Brotherhood. It is the Muslim Brotherhood's Palestinian Arab branch. The link is unambiguous. Article two of Hamas's founding charter states quote the Islamic Resistance Movement is one of the wings of Muslim Brotherhood in Palestine. End quote. Here's a great idea.

Got a message from Russ who says, loving all the background stuff today the Hamas Kids cartoon show is far more insidious than I knew. Side note regarding the Sikhs in Britain fighting back. I'm no authority on the Sikhs, but my understanding is that they are an honor culture, mostly peaceful, but also a warrior culture. Training in martial arts seems to be pretty widespread, and people who have served alongside them say they are extremely competent and ferocious fighters. The diaspora, at least, seems to be very peaceful and friendly. Unless pushed, they are not to be messed with. That is my impression of them as well. Let's jump over and chat with Marcus. Hello, Marcus, Welcome to the show. Hey, and great show as usual. I'm forced I missed a bunch of at first, and I'm gonna have to miss them up here in a little bit too. I'll beginning my next drop. But I just wondered, and they tell me I forgot about downloading the podcast. But yes, did have you mentioned anything about the English belfour papers or the English white papers that come out? But at the same time, I have not. That's not part of this. I'm talking about the Hebron massacre. Yeah, I talked about that. I've talked about the Balfour declaration before. Is probably right after the October seventh massacre in Israel. I did a deep dive on that. Right all right, Well, I didn't know because it was kind of up telling them what y'all talking about and the Masters and everything that took place in the MASTI that the two different papers with the English English being in charge, everything kind of escalated everything like that. And well yeah, they they well, yeah, the English did not want to be there. They did not want it. They they wanted to get out and that's why. Yeah, they they drew up the partition plan and stuff, and they you know, they put the what Jerusalem under the control of like an Arab I think it's called like the the Wak or something like that, where it's uh, it's governed by like Jordan and Egypt I think they've gotten and the Palestinian representative something like that. So like these the. Holy sites mess everything. Yeah, they kind of made a mess. Everything was already messed. Up, yeah, very much. And then they drew a bunch of arbitrary lines all over the place, creating these nation states out of you know, different tribes and clans that you know, probably should not have been part of the same nation state because they had you know, long standing feuds or you know, bad feelings and animosities and stuff. So yeah, the British didn't. I don't think they did a lot of good work. This wasn't their best work. No, no, that that wasn't their finest hour by and no shirt. Well well not at all. I appreciate it, Marcus, thanks for the call, sir. Now, the British were there during this nineteen twenty nine Hebron massacre. I mentioned this, I think in the last at the end of the last hour, where you know, Jews were being slaughtered by their Arab neighbors, literally their neighbors, people that they had you know, worked with, they had you know, been in town with, that they had dined with, and then they came and murdered them, and you know, while they were running to British authorities for protection. In her books, she describes one of the scenes Yardina Schwartz describes, you know, there's a British soldier on horseback with a firearm and does nothing to quell the riot, does not fire the gun, does not do anything to save these Jews that are being massacred at his feet. And it's only when the mob starts to attack his horse. Is when he starts firing and the crowd runs away like that's that was the kind of situation that the British allowed to unfold. And is that because these were Jewish people. I don't know, I don't know a year oh, and I did get this message also because. To do. The Muhammad al Husseini, that's the Grand Mufti who was corrupt, who spread these lies that the Jews were going to attack the Alosa Mosque and then after that they were going to move on on the Brahemi Mosque in Hebron, and that's what prompted the riots. This was a propaganda campaign that ran a year before the riots erupted. And this was done by the Grand Mufti to distract the population from his corruption where he was siphoning pounds British money. He was siphoning this money out of the coffers of various Islamic institutions in order to build himself a mansion and a hotel I think, and whatever. So like, he had a lot of scandal, he had a lot of corruption around him, and he starts this rumor campaign in order to distract the population. And this has been something by the way, that we have seen persist in the Middle East ever since, like this constant demonization that the Jews and America is doing all of this stuff in order to keep you down. And that's the reason you're poor, whatever, it's been a distract away from the abuses of these tyrannical authoritarian governments that have been in these nations for the last one hundred years. So there's one more clip I'll play from Jordana Schwartz, and this gets to what I think is really the heart of this issue now, which is rejectionism. She calls it rejection of coexistence. And there is no way forward for any kind of a quote two states solution. There's no way forward on that because hamas the Palestinians, the Arab population since nineteen twenty nine. This rejectionism is the through line through all of it. They do not permit Jews to live there. They will not coexist. That's the line, all right. If you're listening to this show, you know I try to keep up with all sorts of current events, and I know you do too, and you've probably heard me say get your news from multiple sources. Why. Well, because it's how you detect media bias, which is why I've been so impressed with ground News. It's an app and it's a website, and it combines news from around the world in one place, so you can compare coverage and verify information.

I did not finish reading this text from the text line before the break, so let me finish reading the text. It was only a sentence, so I apologize. This comes from Eric Mohammed al Husseini, the same Grand Mufti who spread this propaganda campaign that the Jews were trying to plot to destroy the Al Aksa Mosque, and he did that in order to distract from his own corruption. He also allied himself and collaborated with Hitler in World War Two because well, they both hated Jews. He even helped recruit three Muslim SS divisions. This is the final quote or final clip here that I've got from again. This is off of a YouTube channel called Ask Haviv Anything. The host is named Haviv retig Gour. He is a reporter at the Times of Israel and he had a sit down conversation with Jardina Schwartz, who wrote a book called Ghosts of a Holy War, and it's about the nineteen twenty nine Hebron massacre, which she pinpoints as sort of the beginning of this nearly century long feud, and she explained some of the reasons why she considers this to be the beginning. But at the heart of all of this is what she calls rejectionism, and here's her explanation for that. It's also the beginning or an early spark of the rejectionism that has characterized the Palestinian movement for the last century, the rejection of living together, inequality. So there was there was coexistence before nineteen twenty nine, but coexistence as long as Jews were second class citizens, as long as Jews were kept out of places like the tomb of the patriarchs as long as Jews didn't have a role in leadership. For instance, in Cavron and there was just one Jew on city council, one Jewish police officer, even that was pushing it. There was this allergic reaction to this idea that under the British Jews would become equal citizens, Jews would be allowed to immigrate into Palestine. Because under the Ottoman Empire, before the British took over, before the British Mandate of Palestine, under Ottoman rule of Palestine, there were quotas on Jewish immigration. Jews were restricted from purchasing land. Jews were already the majority in Jerusalem, and yet they were restricted from purchasing land, even in Jewish quarters. So there was this rejection of any notion of Jewish power, and that was very evident in nineteen twenty nine with these cries of house and is our land. The Jews are dogs, you know. There is this rejection of this idea that Jews would have any kind of equality in Palestine, and a rejection of a shared future. So the Great I must stop right there for a second. Why is this flaring up, she says, is because this concept that the British, now that they controlled the former Ottoman Empire territory, that they were going. To make the Jews equal. And this is where this rejectionism first sparks. How dare you? They are dogs, they are second class citizens, They're not allowed to own anything, They're not our equals. And that's where this idea flares up first. And Mufti, after. Inciting these riots, he was able to keep the powerful positions that the British had actually appointed him to and he came even more powerful. And after inciting the riots that characterized the revolts that began in nineteen thirty six, the British began to have negotiations with Jewish leadership and Palestine to figure out what could be done. The British had already decided. They wanted out of Palestine, but they didn't know how they would get out, and they began to talk about potentially a two state solution. This was the first time. They didn't call it that, but they talked about dividing the land between an Arab an independent Arab state an independent. Jewish state with self governance. And the Jewish leadership wasn't totally thrilled by the idea. Because it would give just twenty percent to the Jews and something like eighty percent. To the Arabs. But they were excited that. This was even you know, being spoken about some kind of independence in the land of Israel for the first time in two thousand years. Meanwhile, the Grand Mufti was adamantly opposed not just the idea of two states, but to the idea that the four hunter a thousand Jews then living in Palestine would even be able to live there. He said, when they at When the British asked him in nineteen thirty six, what should be done with the Jews now living here, he said, we can. We can get to that later, once we get to self governance, Arab self governance. And I said, well, can they stay? And he said no, And that was his first rejection. Of course, in nineteen forty seven, he and every other Arab leader rejected the UN partition plan. You know, this is all to say that if this conflict was truly about land and who gets to live where, this conflict would have been solved years ago, decades ago. Two thousand there was a two state offer that was rejected with no alternative. Two thousand and eight, even more generous offer rejected out of hand by a bus. You know, this notion that. Settlements, however problematic they may be, and we can talk about that, this idea that settlement are the key obstacle to peace is a fallacy. I mean, there were less than two hundred thousand settlers living in the West Bank in two thousand when Arafat rejected the two state solution. Today they're more than nearly five hundred thousand. So it just shows that, you know, sharing this land is not an option for one side of the equation. And you know, maybe that's true that today Israel is led by a government that also doesn't want a two state solution, but that is relatively recent that that set right. It's not about the land, it's about you not being here, that I don't want you being here. From the very beginning, it was we're going to dare I say it, ethnically cleanse the entire Middle East of all the Jews because they're second class citizens. They're not even we don't even consider them to be people. We don't want them here. And so oh, Britain, we're not going to agree to any map that you give us that gives them private property. Ownership rights. So it's not about this particular piece of land, it's about any land at all. It's about coexistence. They refuse to coexist on an equal playing field. All right, So you've heard me talk about Creative Video for almost a year. But did you know they also offer a game changing app for businesses that reward their teams with incentive trips.

I got a message from Timoteo who says, during my time with Siemens Power Generation out of Charlotte, I was sent to Kuwait to make repairs to a generator at the al Zur power plant. Siemens Germany was responsible for the project. The German employees working at that plant enjoyed the admiration of the Kuwaits for having attempted to exterminate the Jews, and those employees at the powerplant played up to that image. Yeah that's UH. I forget who I I forget who I was watching. I was watching some interview with UH with you know, some a person. That you would know. It's a famous person. But I want to say they came from like the business world or maybe media. I forget where, but it wasn't. They weren't, like UH, an expert on Israel, Palestine stuff or whatever. But they said. Somehow an other, like they were asked about the rise of anti Semitism or whatever, and he was like, it's one of the things that oh it may have been John mcquarter. It's like you you talk to people who are in all other ways that you think they are, uh, you know, open minded, they're nice people from and he's talking about people in the Middle East and he's like, I have all these interactions and it's all perfectly you know, nice and polite and all of the stuff, and then all of a sudden it just turns into some you know, rant against the Jews. It's like this this thing that just trips their triggers. And it's like and it's so widespread, like they sell minekomf in the in the shops and stuff. It's it's crazy. Anyway, along those lines, let me tell you about a woman named Francesca Albanie. She is the UN Special Reporteur for Gaza. Okay. So this is who the UN put in charge of reporting to the world what is happening in Gaza, Okay. Francesca Albanese. And there's a video now making the rounds of her where she says she's had some conference and she's speaking and she says people continue to say but Hamas Jamas Humas. I don't think people have any idea what Hamas is. Hamas is a political force, course that won the two thousand and five elections, whether we like it or not. Hamas built schools, public facilities, hospitals. It was simply the authority, the de facto authority. So it's critical that you understand that when you think of AMAS, you should not necessarily think of cutthroats, people armed to the teeth or fighters. It's not like that. No, No, this is the political wing of h Yeah. I've long mocked this bifurcation that for some reason, terrorist organizations get like Hamas, like the Palestinian authority, like Hezbollah, like they Oh, this is the militant wing of Hamas, the militant wing like. Nobody else gets that bifurcation, Like is there a militant wing of Israel? Wouldn't that be the IDF? No? What about America? Is our military the militant wing of the of the government. Nobody ever gets that description, Only Hamas, only these terrorist organizations. This is from David Stram at hotair dot com. He said, the level of corruption in our elites is off the charts. This woman's husband also a vile anti semi apparently works for the World Bank. Two. You got Canada, France, the UK. They're all preparing to recognize Palestine as a state, which is an obvious reward for their October seventh attack. Yeah, I don't know how you recognize the state that you don't even know what the borders are? What are the borders? Do you know? Hamas calculated that if only they upped the suffering in Gaza, the moral midgets in the West would reward their cruelty with a new state, and they calculated correctly. The worse they got, the more the Western leaders supported them. And this proves to Hamas and everybody else that's watching terrorism works, So good job Western culture. And then there's this I got from listener Andy. The Democrat National Committee is trying to avoid a fight over this issue. A vote at the DNC meeting later this month could once again expose the rift between the party's base and its leaders, who are lining up to oppose a resolution against arms for Israel. Alison Minerly, twenty six year old committee member, sponsored the measure. She told The Intercept that Democrat leaders risk further alienating party members, especially the youth vote, if they kill this largely symbolic resolution. So she wants to know boycott, defund, divest, beat sanctions Israel, all of that stuff, and act at arms, embargoes, suspend military aid, and recognize Palestine as a state. DNC leadership is like, well, let's just do this kind of milk toast water down version of it, and this is going to now erupt in a big fight apparently at the DNC meeting later this month, and I am here for it. All right. That'll do it for this episode. Thank you so much for listening.
