The Jewish State
The root cause of the mess in the Middle East is really quite simple. In 1947 The United Nations (General Assembly Resolution 181) called for the area of Palestine between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean Sea to be partitioned into two states, one Jewish and one Arab. Simple. The Arab leadership rejected the plan and launched a genocidal war against the new-born Jewish State. The Arab leadership continues to this day to oppose the two-state (one Jewish and one Arab) solution. The Arab rejection of the Jewish State is the ongoing cause of the conflict.
It was the front page of the "Jewish Forward". The headline was: New Loyalty Oath Unusual in Asserting ReligionIf you want to read the column that followed the misleading, and incitement-filled headline you can read it here.
Israel Stands Out in Requiring Fealty to a Specific Faith

Welcome home Yaakov,
So what's new? This is what happens when Jews try to act as all other people.We are a unique people, and limits have been set as to our behavior. The truth is that regardless of how humane and fair we may be, most of the world will reject us.We should fool the world and continue to do the right thing, but we must also do what we must for survival as a Jewish Democratic State, and I for one among many will take an oath to do so.

Do Jews living in the EASTERN 78% of Palistine not have to pledge alegence to Jordan? . . .
OH-excuse me . . . . It's forbidden for Jews to live in the eastern 78% of palistine. They had to be forcibly extracted from there to make room for those Muslims from southern Saudia Arabia who couldn't get along with other Muslims from southern Saudi arabia , , , ,
sorry about my mistake------ dUhhhh
Welcome back, Yakov and thx for your refreshing comic and text below :)
Michaelbefree,
That was how Arabia became Saudi Arabia, when the ibn Sauds chased out the Hashemites. I like to call it The Wahhabist Entity. When Muslims learn that Israel is not pronounced "Zionist Entity" I will call The Wahhabist Entity whatever they want me to call it, but not unitl then.
The deeper reason for the "Clash of Civilizations", and Jihad in general, is the trillions of dollars of oil money the West dumped on the Muslim oil states.
Un-industrialized, mostly unsophisticated societies, began to have world power, and the cash to buy nuclear warheads and ballistic missiles.
Muslims took it as a sign from God that they're supposed to wage jihad again. At least it helped give them the confidence to issue the 3 "Nos" of Khartoum.
If you want peace, stop paying for oil.
Re Jewish Forward headline: We are our own worst enemy . . . or as Pogo opined, "We have met the enemy and it are us."
The Forward is a liberal rag that is an embarrassment to those who actually believe in journalism and understand the realities of the Middle East. It keeps its readers on the upper west side of Manhattan happy in their self-righteous stupidity.
There is already a two state solution in place. The terrorist state of Gaza, and the democratic and free state of Israel.
Hidden context: Why did Israel suddenly formalize its definition as a Jewish, democratic state

First off, your first paragraph under todays cartoon is one of the most succinct explanations of the Israeli/Palestinian conflict I have ever seen.
2nd, Thank you for underlining the real meaning of this 'oath of allegiance' to Israel. Initially I was flabberghasted that this was happening, but now I think I understand it better.
But still. It seems like Israel is divorced from reality. It takes actions and assumes the world understands its real reasons. Then, when the bias and misunderstanding start, Israel just pulls its turtle's head in.
If Israel had better public relations and media relations, and someone actually made sense from Israel like you do, in mainstream media, I think things would be different.
But instead, all I see is Thomas Friedman spouting bull crap about Israel's situation, and never ONCE, underlining what you did in that first paragraph.
Glad you made it back in one piece bones.
It seems to me that the Arabs want it THEIR WAY period ! It galls them that a few million Jews have the audacity to live in their midst and survive.
So regards the headline Bones, is this a denial of the Inquisition or Mohammedan doctrines to convert Jews and Christians at sword point?
Just askin
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness"
This is what we believe in America
Hey welcome back Yaakov,
I hope you enjoyed your stay in the states.
I have few questions, is "MR. History" a jew? I mean he got a really long and big nose.
What does he do with his other hand, we can't see?
Does he counting money?
Does the rejection of the arabs 60 years, give Israel the right to suppress the Palestinians and open the World biggest Open-Air-Prison??
I think yes, Israel is the only legit democracy down there and the other barbarian nomad tribes or whatever it lives down there, dont know anyhting about our norms and values.
Israel is our last frontier in the war against Islam.
I watched a movie last night where arabs still take a dump in the middle of the desert, they just lift their skirt and go for it.
My suggestion is that everyone who takes a dump on free air should be classed as subhuman and should also be treated as one.
I also suggest that they should wear some markings so we can distinguish them.. a yellow halfmoon maybe?
ok thats for it today..
I hope you enjoyed your stay in the states and im looking forward for more comics.

Yaakov, hello from NY
nobody reads that socialist crap, Forwards. At least from the 70s, I'd say - or maybe they do, in the limousine liberal caves of UWS.
few years ago I was invited to attend poetry readings and it happened to be in the Workmen's Circle building on 33rd st. Oh, my, I felt I suddenly popped up in Sholom Aleichem world of 1910! Even the smell was a musty smell of rotten catacomb, of 'shtettl' misery and radical socialist propaganda...
I ran.
Don't pay attention to this rag, Yaakov; these people conflate Jewishness with radical leftism and are their own worst enemy.

That's so impressive...

NU? So vat was talked about? Vat was decided?
Yes, Mr. History is a Jew like me. He has a big Jewish nose like me. He is also counting his money like me!
