Rescues in Haiti-Guess by Whom
Watch these rescues in Haiti. Who are these heroes and from where do they come?
The answer is Israel.
IDF stands for the Israeli Defense Force-yes, the same ones who fight for Israel against the terrorist forces that constantly attack her. ZAKA is an Israeli volunteer rescue force that responds to emergencies-like terrorist attacks and disasters such as has occurred in Haiti.

You didn't know that, did you?
Did you know that Israel has already established a portable hospital in Haiti with doctors and other medical personnel?
I hope you will keep this in mind when the mindless Israel-bashers show up at some university campus and start telling you how bad the state of Israel is. You might ask them how much aid Israel's enemies have contributed to Haiti.
The 2nd hospital is on the way. It should be up and running by today.
ReplyDeleteNow how much aid did the Saudis send?
Gary, I know your love for Israel, but let's not get ridiculous here. There are many nations who are helping, the Turks (Moslems) for instance are very much hands on, and countless others. Many who did not profit from colonialism which made Haiti what it is today. And you know who the guilty are.
ReplyDeleteThanks...

To date, I think the Saudis have made some sort of pledge to send a plane or something.
ReplyDeleteIngrid,
Yes, the Turks are helping. I don't think it is reidiculous to point out that Israel is helping.
But aside from the French, who were Haiti's slave masters, who are the guilty? The US has poured untold millions into haiti over the years. The guilty are Haiti's corrupt and brutal rulers. Has anyone even seen haiti's current president, Rene preval?
I heard that Iran sent some aid.
ReplyDeleteTo think, the Saudis are our "allies". Go figure that one out. Their system of goverment is even more of an antithesis to our own than what they have in Iran.
The Saudis are double dealers.
ReplyDeleteI only objected to Israel being pointed out like they are the only ones who help.
ReplyDeleteIn the history of Haiti, the Spaniards were the first to exploit them, the French followed. The Dominican Republic is taking advantage of them.
Why the US allowed the dictators to control the land is beyond my understanding. The money the US gave obviously did not reach the people. And the Saudis are "our" allies. I wonder why.
Again, Findalis just doesn't get it.
Ingrid,
ReplyDeleteAll of Israel's enemies combined (Turkey is not one of them) don't match Israel's contribution. My point was that in a few weeks, people on university campuses will be screaming about the racist Apartheid Israel state. And I repeat. The Saudis are double-dealers.
Ingrid,
ReplyDeleteThe Turks are, today, busy airing anti-Semitic television programs.
They were also very much "hands on" during the Armenian Genocide much like many Germans during the Holocaust. So lets be careful where we throw our stones.
Ted, who is throwing stones? You contradict what Gary is saying about the Turks. Bringing up the holocaust during this discussion is really not necessary. Mea Culpa, I am German born. I admire any and everyone who does anything to help aliviate the sorrows of Haiti, but to point out one over the other is silly.
ReplyDeleteIngrid,
ReplyDeleteThe point you missed about throwing stones are the stones that you hurled at the Spaniards, the French and the Dominicans, for their ugly role in history. Hasn't it been typical of one European nationality to hurl stones at each other? Look at how Europeans butchered one another for centuries.
As a German, you might better spend your time talking about Germany's ugly role in history and let the French and Spaniards do the same about theirs.
As far as Gary singling out the Israelis, you conveniently miss that point as well.
Israel is regularly branded as a "racist apartheid state" by those who continue wish this world to be Judenrein.
Is this also "silly" to you?
alleviate of course, I should have checked my spelling.
ReplyDeleteTed, first of all I am American, just happen to be German born. My loyalty lies with the USA.
ReplyDeleteThis subject was about how much Isreal is doing compared to the rest of the world, and all I mentioned was that other countries did a lot too.
You brought up history which frankly doesn't interest me at this point.
Ingrid,
ReplyDeleteNo surprise to me.
