JORDAN EXAGGERATING ABOUT JERUSALEM

Jordan contemplates declaring Jerusalem the capital of Arab culture
(IMRA, 9/4).

Jerusalem never was a center of Arab culture, like Damascus and
Baghdad, or, for that matter, the Kaaba. When Jordan seized the Old
City of Jerusalem, which is what Jordan is referring to now, inasmuch
as Zionists built the New City of Jerusalem, it invested nothing in
the Old City. The King did not pray there nor visit it. He was
following the custom of the Muslims in treating Jerusalem
contemptuously when they controll it, and calling it vital to them
when they don't.

Most people think that the Muslims denigrate only the Jewish interest
in Jerusalem, a major part of Judaism. In denying that the Jewish
Temples were in Jerusalem or even in Israel, and in asserting that
Jesus was an Arab, the Muslims contradict the Christian Bible.
Christian doctrine describes Jesus as a non-conformist rabbi playing a
major role in Jerusalem at the Temple.

SAUDI WOMEN TREATED LIKE CHILDREN

Saudi police bar female Saudi journalists and Saudi women seeking
visas or having other business with foreign embassies from entering
the embassy sector without a male guardian. The women are not happy
about it (IMRA, 9/6).

ISRAEL WON'T ROOT OUT ROCKET CREWS

"IDF Chief of Staff Gabi Ashkenazi objects to large-scale action in
Gaza because of the difficulty of operating on two fronts without
massive drafting of the reserves. The sources said Israel's position
might change if a large number of casualties resulted from the Qassam
fire."

"= the IDF could act now before the Palestinians (Muslim Arabs)
succeed in murdering a lot of Israeli civilians but that would require
inconveniencing Israelis who would have to be called up to do reserve
duty during the holiday season. So instead of taking the initiative -
with the advantages associated with taking the initiative - it is
better to give the Palestinians the opportunity to murder many Israeli
civilians first (Dr. Aaron Lerner, IMRA, 9/6).

Another Israeli problem is that its government is anti-Zionist and pro-
Arab.

CEDE LAND, GET WAR

The Israel Beiteinu Party cites the wars after Israel evacuated from
Lebanon and Gaza (Arutz-7, 9/6). Withdrawal encourages imperialists.
