Muhammed Khudeir

I realize that the title of this article might offend and provoke many people, especially those adhering to the Judaic faith.
 
I do know that Jews, like everyone else, are not carbon copies of each other. There are many conscientious Jews who believe in fairness and basic human equality regardless of color, race and faith, and strongly reject racism and chauvinism in any form.
 
These people I salute for their rectitude, humanity and morality. They are our natural partners for peace and a better tomorrow for our children and their children.
 
But there are numerous other Jews who don't believe in human equality and justice for all. Indeed, there are many Jews, e.g. followers of the hateful Chabad sect, who don't even ascribe full humanity to people who are not members of the Jewish faith.
 
Needless to say, the venomous ideology adopted by these racist fanatics has much in common with Aryan Nazism. 
 
What else can be said to describe an ideology that teaches adherents that the life of a non-Jew has no sanctity and that goyem can be murdered without the slightest compunction or feeling of guilt?
 
The shocking reactions by the Israeli government, rabbis, and community leaders to the latest abduction, murder and subsequent burning of a Palestinian child near Jerusalem are very telling.
 
In a certain sense, these reactions and attitudes can be compared to the reactions and attitudes of many Germans to the pogroms carried out against Jews by the Nazis prior to and during the Second World War.
 
The gleefully despicable embrace of the brashly hideous crime by the bulk of the Israeli Jewish society underscores the fact that millions of Jews in Israel and abroad do harbor certain Nazi tendencies, especially against the Palestinian people. These tendencies are too real and too tangible to be overstated.
 
Indeed, the conspicuous reluctance of the Israeli government to condemn the murder of Muhammad Khudeir is more than ominous. I am not eager to demonize Jews or hurl on them the Nazi epithet.
 
However, we must call the spade a spade, even at the expense of upsetting the huge Zionist propaganda machine which habitually alters the black into white and the blatant big lie into a "truth" glorified by sheepish westerners who have long been brainwashed into believing that Israel is a modern, civilized and democratic state.
 
In the final analysis, when Jews (or anyone else) think, behave and act like the Nazis thought, behaved and acted, they simply become Nazis. Pure and simple.
 
Today, there are numerous Jews who openly call for the physical annihilation of Palestinians as retaliation for the abduction and killing of three Jewish settlers in the West Bank.
 
Saber-rattling rabbis speak menacingly of the need to adopt "the Biblical way" to combat the Palestinians.
 
For those not versed in Jewish phraseology, "Biblical way" is euphemism for genocide.
 
Today, the Israeli media reported that some army personnel openly appealed to the government to "give us the green light to annihilate them."!!!
 
Just read what thousands of Jewish youths have been writing on their Facebook pages! It is outrageous, disgusting and sheer evil.
To put it in a nutshell, Nazism is being regurgitated and exuded all over Israel. This is happening in broad daylight while professional liars like Binyamin Netanyahu are filling the ether with all sorts of shameless lies about Israel being victimized by the Palestinians.
 
Seventy-six years have passed since Kristalnacht. Today Jewish settlers in the west Bank, in close cooperation and coordination, with the Israeli army could very well carry out a huge pogrom against an innocent and helpless community which really finds itself very much in the same precarious and vulnerable position that European Jewry experienced prior to WWII.
 
I am not a prophet of doom and gloom, but the signs are unmistakably bleak.
 
A final point, the Palestinian people in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip are surviving thanks to the good-will of the international public opinion. Should the international community go into a brief slumber, God forbid, Israel and its own Wehrmacht, SS, Gestapo and Hitler Youth might embark on the unthinkable. Don't you ever say Jews can't carry out a holocaust against their victims, the Palestinians?  
 
Words can kill; words do kill.
 
Unfortunately, the chilling words we are hearing from many Israeli Jews these days leave no room for optimism.

Muhammad Abu Khudeir Was Burnt Alive

Saturday July 05, 2014 00:50 by Chris Carlson - 1 of International Middle East Media Center Editorial Group

Initial autopsy reports reveal that 16-year-old Muhammed Hussein Abu Khudeir, was still breathing when he was burnt after being assaulted by his Israeli kidnappers.

General Palestinian Prosecutor, Mohammad Abul-Ghani al-Oweiwy, attended the West Bank autopsy after body was handed over to a medical team.

Forensic studies found chars in the lungs, indicating that Muhammad was still breathing while he was being burned, according to WAFA. 90% of the child's body was burned, varying from 1st to 4th degree in severity.

The child was also beaten on the head, as signs of beating and concussion were clear.

The Palestinian Forensic Center has taken samples and tissues from the body, to be submitted for further analysis before a final detailed report can be revealed, according to Arabs48.

16-year-old Muhammed Hussein Abu Khudeir was abducted from outside his home, in the Shu'fat district of occupied East Jerusalem, by a group of Israelis who forced him into a car and sped off.

The teen’s burned body was found hours later in a vacant lot in another part of the city, sparking protests in his home neighborhood which are ongoing at the time of this report.

Over 200 Palestinians have been injured by Israeli army fire in ongoing clashes with Israeli soldiers, in different parts of occupied Jerusalem and nearby towns, following the abduction.

His funeral was held today [July 4, 2014], amidst further clashes with Israeli forces.
