Hebrews vs. Philistines


Apparently when Likud’s Benjamin Netanyahu can get all his ducks in a row to form a Slanted Right Israeli government, Avigdor Lieberman has received the tap to be Foreign Minister.

This is interesting on many levels of global geopolitics.

Netanyahu of Likud and Lieberman of Yisrael Beiteinu both ran campaigns of strong defense against Israel’s Islamic enemies, which would include the Arabs that call themselves Palestinians from the Fatah dominated PA, Hamas dominated Gaza and Hezbollah (Iran influenced) Shi’ites from roughly southern Lebanon.

Both Netanyahu and Lieberman are not committed to the creation of a Palestinian State nor of giving up land that would weaken Israel’s defenses – such as the Golan Heights.

Lieberman in particular is no friend of Islamic Arabs. He is my kind of guy. He requires a loyalty oath to Israel from Arab-Israeli citizens and if need be the strengthening of a Jewish presence in the West Bank (Judea and Samaria). I am assuming this means even if the Israeli government moves Islamic Arabs to repatriate them among the Arab nations in which they have a closer affinity.

Lieberman sounds harsh but is by no means novel. Turkey dispatched Greeks and Armenians out of Turkey to make the citizenry more Turkish. Once Israel successfully withstood the Islamic armies of several invading armies,
the losers cast out more Jews than the alleged Palestinians (really Arabs) that were displaced by their own brethren.

I am saying
Lieberman’s Israeli nationalism is part and parcel to self-preservation as well as a solution practiced by Islamic nations.

Now here is the thing. A Netanyahu and Lieberman government will be diametrically opposed to the appeasement policies of the Obama Administration in which Secretary of State
Hillary Clinton is already proclaiming the inevitability of a creation of a Palestinian State.

Israel is truly in a David vs. Goliath in which a victory or defeat will lead to the preservation of the Land of Israel or its demise. Obviously the Obama Administration in cahoots with pro-Arab goals is the Philistine Goliath.
