Prince William, the Falklands, and Those
Expansionist Jews...

The AP article on November 14th spoke of Great
Britain's Prince William, second in line to the
throne, being deployed to Las Malvinas.
The latter largely became known as the Falkland
Islands the same way that Judea and Samaria became
renamed the "West Bank"...as a result of British
imperial shenanigans.
To distinguish the western part of the original 1920
Mandate of Palestine from the Emirate of Transjordan
the Brits created in 1922 for their Arab allies on
the east bank of the Jordan River (some 80% of the
total area), the name "West Bank" came into use.
This was further reinforced after Transjordan
grabbed that non-apportioned area of the Mandate for
itself after it invaded a re-born Israel in 1948.
Holding both banks of the river, the Emirate renamed
itself Jordan soon afterwards.
If there is a difference, it's that long before
there was either an Argentina or Great Britain, Jews
were living, making history, and changing the world
forever in the moral and spiritual legacy they left
behind in Judea and Samaria. |

David was born in
Bethlehem and was crowned King of Israel in Hebron
and had children there. He would later make
Jerusalem his capital--over three millennia ago.
Jerusalem is mentioned over six hundred times in the
Hebrew Bible--not even once in Arab Islam's Qur'an.
Earlier, Abraham made Hebron known to the world in
the first place by purchasing a burial plot there
for many of the patriarchs and matriarchs of the
Jewish people. Hannah dedicated her son, Samuel, to
the service of G_d in the care of the High Priest,
Eli, in Shiloh, and G_d renewed the promise of the
Promised Land to Abraham's grandson, Jacob, at
Bethel. Jacob made peace with his brother, Esau, at
Penuel and by doing so was thus transformed by G_d
into his higher self--Israel--in the process.
The oldest known version of Biblical scripture ever
found was located in the Dead Sea Scrolls at Qumran
in the Judean Wilderness, and the Jews held off the
mighty Roman Empire for years at the fortress of
Masada. The list goes on...
All of those places above are towns in Judea.
While most of the world was still worshipping stone
idols and practicing human sacrifice and fertility
rights, the Jews--despite their own
imperfections--were spreading the knowledge of an
ethical G_d who demands justice, loves mercy, and
commands that man should love his neighbor as
himself to the rest of mankind.
Have you ever wondered why Jews are so
disproportionately represented in movements for
human rights and social betterment throughout
history? Look no further than what you just read
above. They have indeed been--as G_d instructed them
to be millennia ago in Zion--"a light unto the
nations."
So, Royal Air Force pilot, Prince William, has now
set off to defend Her Majesty's claim to islands
almost 8,000 miles away from home--land first
acquired almost two centuries ago. At the same time,www.ekurd.net
the Brits were expanding their empire far and wide
elsewhere as well. Think about that a bit when you
consider London's finger wagging at Jews simply
wanting to live beyond the 9 to 15-mile wide ghetto
of a state Israel was left as via the 1949 armistice
lines which the Brits--and others--now expect Israel
to return to.
When Jews dig in the soil of Judea, Samaria, and
Israel--despite their forced exile, Diaspora, and
forced Arabization of the land and its people after
the Jihadi invasions of Muhammad's successors in the
7th century C.E.--Jews continuously find their own
roots and history. They are indeed home...
What do the Brits find when they dig on the
Falklands? Or the Russians in Chechnya? Or the
United States in Samoa?
Yet all of those (and many more) nations' leaders
act as if Jews are being unreasonable when they
claim that they should once again be allowed to live
in East Jerusalem and elsewhere--where Jews indeed
owned land and lived up until the Arab massacres of
the 1920s and 1930s.
Regardless of the conflicting Argentinean and
British claims to the territory Prince William is
now assigned to, the plain fact is that the
archipelago sits a few hundred miles off the coast
of Argentina--and thousands of miles away from Great
Britain. Yet the latter fought a war and acquired
them in the first place in the name of its own
sovereignty.
Judea and Samaria are in Israel's backyard.
Keep all of this in mind in light of the hypocrisy
and double standards which Israel will undoubtedly
continue to be subjected to in the days which lie
ahead.
