US and Israel quit over UNESCO’s love affair with 'Palestine' : Comments

By David Singer, published 17/1/2019

'[Palestine] is not a state… It does not meet the customary international law test of statehood. It doesn't control defined boundaries. It doesn't fulfill the normal functions of government...'

As the quotation marks indicate, “Palestine” does not exist. There is no such place. Shorten's threat to have Australia 'recognise’ the non existent shows that he is too dumb to be Prime Minister. However, there are many dummies who will vote for him, so he probably will have the satisfaction of recognising …. well …. nothing. There is no chance that he will follow the only Western leader with a pair, Donald Trump, and remove our contribution to the really dumb and dangerous UN, which has already committed the stupid act of recognising a loose bunch of terrorists who were kicked out from elsewhere in the Middle East.

With "Palestine", is that Hamas-Palestine or Fatah-Palestine? They hate each other.

Until they can get their act together, it is pointless thing to try to negotiate.

Isreal has a 6,000 year Jewish history in the land. Palestine / Islam has a patchy 100 year history.

As geography and common sense doesn't appear to matter, just which bunch of people in the non-existent state are being recognised: Mahmoud Abbas, who will never be able to win the backing of a majority of his people for any peace agreement with Israel? Or Hamas, which forever informs the world that it will never make peace with Israel because it cannot accept the presence of non-Muslims on what it perceives to be Muslim-owned land?”

Yet another example of the irrational Islamic hatred of Isreal.

Israel’s Paralympic swim team will not be permitted to enter Malaysia for the World Para Swimming Championships.

Keep in mind - Article 13 of Hamas‘ Charter states, “There is no solution to the Palestinian problem except by Jihad. The initiatives, proposals and International Conferences are but a waste of time, an exercise in futility.” http://www.greenvilleonline.com/story/opinion/contributors/2014/07/28/hamas-seeks-destruction-israel/13275349/

And in 2013, UNESCO announced that "The Life and Works of that Scruffy, Stud Muffin, Che Guevara" became part of the

UN's Memory of the World Register. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UNESCO#Che_Guevara

This decision is more than an insult to US and Cuban mafia interests.

Trump, as America's leading mafia figure, on behalf of his Russian mafia henchman, objects.

UNESCO is an international democratic body that should be respected even if its votes

go against the will of Netanyahu or that Russia Inc stooge Trump.

It is better that Palestine and Israel "battle" it out on the PEACEFUL UNESCO diplomatic level

rather than on the VIOLENT level of airstrikes, ground bombing and bullets in the Middle East.

You really are an incorrigible liar & Israeli propagandist Singer you write the same article over & over
Maybe it would have been better if the UK & France had not interfered at the behest of the Zionists
We may have avoided a lot of problems & your tedious propaganda

funny how archaeological finds in Jerusalem are written in Hebrew. Something that the bigotry of John Ryan would never face up to.

Hi David

An excellent article mate, even if I disagree with some of the content.

Cheers

Something You May Have Missed in Reports About Murder of Israeli Student in Australia

You may have read about a murder that has sent shockwaves around the world, but mostly in Australia and Israel. Israeli student Aiia Maasarwe was murdered in Melbourne, while speaking on the phone to her sister.

My My what a convenient memory you have you children boys and girls are being shot by Israeli snipers in the back & silence reigns
Young teen girls are been jailed for slapping IDF occupying soldiers men in wheelchairs are shot and killed for no reason if they were French & the troops German it would be different do you think
I am sorry about the young woman who was murdered, but what about the Palestinians being murdered every day or is that not worthy of you attention

Naturally JR

You care little for everywhere else in the Middle East, where the killing is far worse than in Israel. The Middle East where:

Arab kills Arab

Iranians kill Arabs

Turks kill Kurds.

Your outrage is selectively against Jewish Israelis (who unfortunately live in a tough neighbourhood, where mature Western European political niceties have never worked.)

Also those Muslims in power all over the Middle East see Western democracy as weak and decadent.

Your anti-Semitism remains predictable.
