OK, I'll admit it. This most recent manifestation of
Hebrew idiocy and nauseating cowardice hit home in a
very personal way (and folks think Jews are smart).
Over the years, I have come to know brave folks from
the Middle East and North Africa who, at great risk
to themselves, have taken a stand against the
murderous, subjugating mindset of far too many Arabs
and other jihadists in the region. They have indeed
been collectively a unique voice in confronting this
growing problem.
Among this courageous cadre, the late Tashbih Sayyed,
Supna Zaidi (Tashbih's daughter), Nonie Darwish,
Brigitte Gabriel, "Yugurten," Dr. Sherkoh Abbas, Dr.
Rebwar Fatah, "Sarchl," and a few others stand out
for me since I have dealt with them personally. I
have also physically seen the amazing ex-terrorist,
Walid Shoebat in action. There are other very
important people who belong to this select group as
well.
On their own, before I even knew who these folks
above were, they found my editorials calling for a
vision of justice in the region which dared to go
beyond simply catering to the Arabs' "purely Arab
patrimony" claims and showcased my articles in their
own print and web publications. In the "Arab"/Muslim
World, other folks have lost their heads for much
less.
Along with Dr. Abbas of the Kurdistan National
Assembly/Syria, Nonie Darwish (ArabsForIsrael.com ,
Now They Call Me Infidel, etc.) wrote the Foreword
to my new book, The Quest For Justice In the Middle
East...The Arab-Israeli Conflict In Greater
Perspective
http://q4j-middle-east.com.
Some three decades ago, while trying to complete my
own doctoral work, I drove to or was flown in as a
specialist consultant to dozens of colleges and
universities across a tri-state region in the
Midwest to balance some blatantly anti-Israel
speaker or academic on campus.
I was often met by anti-Israel protestors--Jews
included--and on more than one occasion had my car
followed by Arabs and other students. One event
required law enforcement protection in the evening. |

The Quest For Justice In The Middle East--The
Arab-Israeli Conflict in Greater Perspective. by
Gerald A. Honigman |

What I have just
described is the Arab and extreme Left's idea of
"free speech." It was so back then, and it so today
as well...perhaps even worse. Those leopards haven't
changed their spots; indeed, it has always been this
way. Unfortunately, this is too often the case in
the typical college classroom as well. If one dares
to disagree with the usual oppressed Arab/oppressor
Jew lesson being dished out, one may do so at the
risk of one's academic career. Been there, done
that--unfortunately.
Back to the present...
As too many have witnessed firsthand, those of us
who try to expose the politically correct "poor,
abused Arabs/nasty Zionist " take regarding the
Middle East for the lie that it is are increasingly
silenced in our attempts in a wide variety of ways.
Those who dare to differ with the Arab/Leftist
version of "truth," are frequently labeled fascists
and such, while truly racist anti-Zionist invective
and plain old anti-Semitism frequently run rampant
and uncensored.
Nonie Darwish was scheduled to present at both
Columbia and Princeton on November 18th and 19th at
the invitation of allegedly pro-Israel groups there.
At virtually the last moment, after all the planning
that goes into these things had already taken place
(I know, my own presentation at Embry-Riddle
Aeronautical University here in Daytona very
recently got the same treatment),www.ekurd.netshe
was canceled. Had this been done to one of a
gadzillion anti-Israel Rashid Khalidi (President
Obama's close friend) or Noam Chomsky-type speakers,
the proverbial manure would have hit the fan.
It turns out the Jews in charge on campus turned
tail and ran as soon as the Muslim groups raised a
fuss. I'm sure that if the situation was reversed,
the Arabs would have done the same for their
pathetic Jew stooges. I'm also sure that the Pope is
really a closet Hindu.
When will you wake up, O fellow members of the
Tribe?
Are Jews and Israel so overloaded with friends--who
seek not injustice for Arabs, but just some relative
justice for scores of millions of others who are
non-Arabs in the region as well--that we can afford
to alienate those who dare to speak out for our
cause?
Unfortunately, Jewish history is no stranger to
these types of Jews. The Romans had them, Spain's
Grand Inquisitor had them, Hitler had them, and so
forth.
What is the crime for which Nonie and others must be
censored--and by Jews, too, no less?
Please read the words of Dr. Sherkoh Abbas to get an
idea...
Mr. Honigman’s book presents a look at justice in
the region from a much broader perspective than the
view that is so prevalent today, one which only
addresses the Arab cause.
And, in Nonie Darwish's own words...
Is it not time to discuss “justice” in the broader
perspective? That is why Mr. Honigman' book is
vital...it will open minds and hearts to the quest
for justice for all of the Middle East’s peoples—not
only Arabs.
Now, do you get the picture?
How do you shed tears because Arabs have conquered
and forcibly Arabized "only" almost two dozen states
of their own to date, while scores of millions of
Kurds, Imazighen (Berbers), and others are denied
even the right to speak their own native languages
or name their children with non-Arab names?
How do you demand a roadmap for a 22nd Arab
state--which will still be dedicated to the
destruction of the sole, miniscule one of the
Jews--and yet play deaf, dumb, and blind to the
political aspirations of scores of millions of
oppressed non-Arab peoples in the region?
And so forth...
Nonie, Brigitte (ActForAmerica.org; Because They
Hate...), Walid, Supna (Muslim World Today), Sherkoh,
Yugurten (Afrique du Norde), and their colleagues
refuse to play the Arab game, as popular as it is
with too much of the rest of the world--including
too many head-in-the-sand and/or self-hating Jews
who believe that the Arab-Israeli conflict is still
just all about territory.
This elite cadre knows that there is one basic
truism here: The conflict has never been about how
big Israel is, but that Israel is. Indeed, Arabs
have called the potential birth of an independent
Kurdistan as being the equivalent of that of another
Israel. Likewise, conquering Arabs have called the
subjugated native people of North Africa--the
Imazighen--Zionist conspirators as well.
Alas, on the contrary, the Arab-Israeli conflict has
always been about that conquering Arab mindset,
mentioned earlier, which has resulted in the
slaughter, subjugation, and forced Arabization of
scores of millions of other native, Asiatic, but
non-Arab peoples over the centuries (continuing to
this very day)--Kurds,www.ekurd.netImazighen/Berbers,
Copts, Jews (more of whom fled to Israel from Arab
lands than vice-versa ), Assyrians, black Africans ,
Hindus, Buddhists, and so forth. In short, it is
about Arabs' utter refusal to grant anyone else (not
only Jews) even a tiny sliver of the justice that
they demand so forcibly for themselves.
