yet again- an Israeli government official went up to the politically-sensitive site called the temple mount.
i and others are accustomed to reading in the media papers and websites about such "incidents" as problems and BAD-provocation.
newspapers need not limit themselves to dry facts "the parliament member went up. period" but add commentary- that is what news agencies do-
WHAT I FEEL WAS WRITTEN IN MANY NEWS SOURCES about past incidences is something like:the jewish parliament member PROVOKED the muslims by going to the temple mount. He CLAIMED he went to pray but an anonymous muslim said that he was OFFENDED.
***and those who decide that if someone is offended, hence that proves the offender is guilty say "these horrid israelis did it again"
and sometimes an act of violence is "explained" or VINDICATED by this provocation.
noone tells the offended one "stop whining" and also does not say "stop being trivial"
on this background the claim "he did not wave a flag" is no defense and no vindication because someone was offended and "we should all be sensitive"
sadly this time the Israeli parliament member added the waving of a flag
GASP
didn't we agree a few lines ago that we should ALL BE SENSITIVE- that seems bad to add waving a flag to the BAD-provocation! the flag is extra for prayer and seems to be added to add-provocation?
a flag seems extra if he went "to pray" that seems to be a greater provocation
***but THIS time is different-
because I was offended-
the muslims were not offended by the Israeli this time-
because this time the Israeli parliament member was waving the flag that muslims like/love-
it is like the jordanian flag without the star.
and his name is Ahmed!
is someone named ahmed in the israeli government?
??
someone who believes it is APARTHEID may be surprised-
despite what we read on the internet about "apartheid"- arabs and muslims are part of the Israeli parliament-
representing the relatively-few arabs who do not call them "boged=traitor" for being part of the zionist government.
besides the arab-political-party-groups there are many "mixed"
LIKUD led by netanyahu includes an arab representative who is welcome and the jew and arab ethnicities work together
similarly AVODA [labor which will have a new name in the coming elections] and "Israel our home" led by leiberman includes people of the arab ethnicity and the jew and arab work together
they are all ISRAELI and all part of the government and many of the arab ethnicity vote for these mixed political-party-groups because -
in the arab's words [one i personally interviewed]- "although the arab is selfish and does not help us, we vote for the jews who work together with an arab"
GASP
i only wish people would realize how many jews have shown-
not only in words but in actions-
that they are not exclusive
NOT EXCLUDE
in contrast to the inaccurate ideas on the internet!
so when this israeli with citizenship like a jew, and in the full meaning israeli-
went up the temple mount-
an israeli went up-
yet the reaction was so different-
!!
from when a jew went up and I=ME was the one offended by his flag
not by the arab going up- but by adding the flag
waving a foreign flag in disputed territory is not only offensive but seems rebellious and challenges the autonomy of Israel-
but who cares
??
if an arab provokes that is not BAD
I am the one "bad" for being "offended" over a trivial "sign of revolution"stop whining
yet perhaps we should be EQUAL
and tell the muslims who have been "offended" to stop whining-
and START showing that they know how to SHARE.
