You don't have to be Jewish...

You don’t have to be Jewish to understand and empathize with Israel. I have many friends who are not Jewish but can understand what we’ve been going through…they too had members of their families who were destroyed during the Holocaust, right along with our families. We must remember that people have very short memories and even shorter attention spans. Just this past weekend the American television watchers were treated to an example of how easy it is to change history, even not-so-recent history. Former Vice President Cheny claimed that the economic difficulties can’t be blamed on the Bush Administration. Now let’s do some figuring. The Bush administration has been out of office less than three months and people are ready to hear the out-and-out lies about a situation that is continuing. So how can we expect mere people to forget and even deny the Shoah took place? After all, one of the “Princes of the Church” says it didn’t happen! Israel MUST begin a continuing public relations campaign. It doesn’t have to be expensive, it just has to be continuing and forceful. The Arabs never stop lying, we must start simply telling the truth all the time. When the so-called Jenin “massacre” occurred, I downloaded ‘Net photos that showed the very few blocks that were destroyed. I attempted to show them to some people who simply we not interested. So I inserted the picture into a slide show I was presenting to a few hundred people, said, “This is a picture of a so-called Israeli destruction of an entire Arab refugee camp. Notice that it does not have a single tent. It is a real live city and that a few blocks of that rather large city were destroyed. I was told by the people who are running this presentation to not show it, therefore, this ends not only this presentation, but ends my association with this group. With that, I turned off my data projector, my laptop computer, packed it all up and quit. Thankfully, the members of the association got rid of those who attempted me from blocking the truth and requested that I come back the next week, which I did. The “politically correct” people were gone. Had I remained away from that group, I would have lost several thousand dollars that year. I did not care. I care more about the truth about Israel than making a few bucks.

You Are Not Alone, Israel

People of Israel, there are many who know and love you. Some of us are able to recognize the lies told about you. Hamas and Islam have been unleased against the Jews and the Christians of this world, and so many ignorant people are believing the lies. Israel is loved.

It's sad that anti -semitism remains so pervasive throughout the world

I found this video really interesting. I am not Jewish but am sure that anti-semitism is at the root of the mis reporting about Israeli matters. After the holocaust during 1939-1945 war one would hope that everyone of every faith (and none) would accept that Jews needed a country where they could live in safety. I understand from previous reports that some survivors of the holocaust live in the area which Hamas attacks with rockets, this must bring back to them the events of the Nazi era. I don't agree with the earlier comment that one has to be Jewish to understand - my family are not Jewish but are really troubled by the misreporting about the middle east.

Asleep at the wheel

It's so good to hear voices speaking kindly of Israel and Jews. I cannot fathom why most western democracies are literally handing over their countries to Islam. Haven't the powers that be read the Hadith or the Suras, don't they know what Muslims have in mind for 'dhimmis' and 'infidels'. They seem to be asleep at the wheel. I imagined that the West would help protect Israel, after all that the Jews have gone through, and considering it is the only tiny place that belongs to us, and the only place we have ever wanted since Exodus. The anti-Israel propaganda is obscene. Muslims have invaded and taken 28 countries so far, and are working very successfully on (and with the assistance of) the West, but as the video says, Israel is singled out for vilification for protecting its citizens, and its right to exist. Mr Lerner has a good point, isn't there something else we can be doing to show and therefore change the facts? On this wonderful site we are really just 'preaching to the converted', although it is good to see the videos from YouTube. I wish I could do something. I do set a lot of people straight in my conversations and writings, but it feels like a drop in the bucket. But it all adds up, I suppose. Shalom to all

Some gentiles are with you

I'm a 61 year old gentile and I am in support of Israel. I see the injustices that have been piled upon you, so does G-d He is in control and you will regain your land. Everytime a war was waged against you you won against all odds, no mere coincidence I say.

Post this video in comments on internet websites!

Post the video in comments on internet websites. Get the truth out! It is despicable and shameful that the mainstream media COVER UP FOR ISLAM by not reporting the constant Islamic attacks and atrocities perpetrated against non-Muslims worldwide, and the absolute denial of human rights for severely persecuted non-Muslims in majority Muslim countries.

This is the triuth!

I dearly want Israel to live in peace with the Palestinians, but slandering Israel is not the way to go about it.

spread this

I am a German Christian watching this media bias and slander of Israel since a few years. It makes me so angry and sad, because people everywhere take for granted what the media presents to them. It is so important to spread these elucidating and rectifying videos. This way we can help Israel, all those who love it. Am Israel chai.

cute but useless

This is another in the apparently endless line of insipid, ineffectual Jewish P.R. responses to anti-Israel propaganda. Our machers seem to be incapable of understanding that this is not an intellectual discussion, but a passionate argument, and it is governed not by the rules of logic, but by emotion. In an argument, as even children understand, once you're on the defensive, you've lost. The film mentions that in a certain situation there were not a thousand killed, but only 60. So what? If someone is accused of murdering lots of people, and then it is found that there were only a few victims, he's still a murderer, and if Israel is accused of a many-victim massacre and it turns out that there were fewer dead, you haven't refuted the central charge. This is so basic and obvious I have difficulty in conveying the utter futility of films such as this. Are our P.R. people stupid or timid? or what? Stop defensive responses. If our publicists don't have the stomach to go on the offensive, let us find those who can.

relief to hear some truth

i'm so sick of hearing about these tales of israels wrong doings, we have been a country called israel for thousands of years and i'm proud of her. she's back in the hands of people who love her, keep telling the world how it really is and kick those crackpots off their band wagons. i was all for the respect party when it came about but after what i've heard galloway say i hope it's days are numbered.

You have to be Jewish to understand

Unfortunately, you have to be Jewish to really understand and care for what it is said about Israel. The others just don’t care and would listen to just anything what is falsely said about Israel. In fact, they even wish Israel didn’t exist and they blame Israel for all the fights and event the recession today. To them, it doesn’t matter who wins. I sent an email to Rachel Maddow from NBC complaining about a story on NBC that I read online, which worded that Israel started the fights with the Palestinians in Gaza. I was appalled. I’m sure it was a wording mistake from their part since I think they support Israel. I have not heard back from her. It shows that you have to be very careful how you word your stories. Not only G-d gave the Arabs oil but also the skill to lie. Today Bin Laden calls it “Holocaust”, does he know the meaning of the word? Someone should send him tapes of the real Holocaust.

Important to forward the truth.

Israel has been villified with unfair lying propaganda constantly. It's time to stress the truth to counter. The shielding of terrorists using civilians and the storage of armament in schools, mosques, and civilian homes should have been included in the video to expose the terrorists who wear masks but no military markings too! Thank you.

A good description of the Israeli position.

The REAL disproportion

Since Palestinian advocates claim Israel acts "disproportionately", they don't understand REAL disproportion when they conflate to the MSM that there are more casualties than actually reported. Furthermore, it is disproportionate to call what Israel is doing to defend herself as "war crimes" and "genocide" considering that Hamas has an ongoing campaign of firing rockets into Israeli cities...Now, why is it that so few people realize that Hamas is the root of the (current) conflict in Israel and Gaza?
