Hugo’s Peace Plan…<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

by Gerald A. Honigman<\/p>\n

I called it weeks ago in my \u201cIt\u2019s So Bad It\u2019s Good, \u201d and much earlier yet in my \u201cWatch Out For The Set Up.\u201d<\/p>\n

While the State Department–with Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice in the lead–really wasn\u2019t given much choice other than to publicly express disappointment with the results of the Arabs\u2019 Saudi-hosted Mecca Accord, which brought Hamas and Fatah\u2019s Abbas together but blatantly rejected anything to do with actually coming to a peaceful resolution of the conflict with its Jewish neighbor, I predicted that the Foggy Folks\u2019 position would very shortly revert back to normalcy\u2026squeeze the Jews, no matter what.<\/p>\n

Sure enough, the ink had just about dried on that good cop\/bad cop Arab accord when State resurrected the earlier alleged Saudi Peace (of the grave) Plan.<\/p>\n

In case you forgot, here\u2019s a summary of that plan:<\/p>\n

Israel, surrounded by almost two dozen Arab states carved out of over six million square miles of territory that Arabs conquered from mostly non-Arab peoples, first agrees to return to its 1949 armistice lines, not borders. Those were the lines where the fighting stopped after six Arab states invaded a reborn Israel in 1948. They were never meant to be permanent borders, as a reading of any of the United Nations’ representatives’ writings at the time clearly show.<\/p>\n

Judea must become Judenrein, and so forth.<\/p>\n

Among other things, those lines made Israel an average of a mere nine to fifteen miles wide at its strategic waist, where most of its population and industry are located. Most people have to travel farther than that just to go to the mall or to work. And recall that the U. N. stood by and watched as Israel was attacked. It only got involved after Israel turned the tide to limit Arab losses. This became the pattern that would often be repeated.<\/p>\n

When the Arabs, led by Egypt’s Nasser, blockaded Israel at the Straits of Tiran in 1967 (a casus belli ), amassed 100,000 troops on Israel\u2019s borders, ordered the U.N. Peacekeeping Force out of Sinai, daily bragged that the extermination of Israel was near (I still have the newspaper reports and pictures of this from May \u201867), and shelled Israel from what was then the Jordanian half of Jerusalem, the Six Day War soon erupted.<\/p>\n

After the dust settled, the architects of U.N. Security Council Resolution 242 (Eugene Rostow, Lord Caradon, Arthur Goldberg, etc.) saw to it that the final draft of the resolution did not ask Israel to return to those fragile ’49 armistice lines.<\/p>\n

In fact, 242 calls for the creation of secure and recognized borders to replace those lines, and any withdrawal at all was to come in the context of real peace agreements (not \u201chudna\u201d ceasefires) between Israel and its assorted Arab neighbors. President Reagan and other American officials confirmed this later on as well.<\/p>\n

The State Department, however, has been another story\u2026those same folks who fought President Truman and rejected Israel\u2019s rebirth in the first place in 1948.<\/p>\n

The Foggy Folks have constantly tried their best to undermine Israel\u2019s attempt to undo the travesty of those \u201849 Auschwitz lines. A reading of my Resolution To Kill The Resolution<\/em> http:\/\/www.israelnationalnews.com\/Articles\/Article.aspx\/5221<\/a>\u00a0provides much detail about this.<\/p>\n

So, here we go again\u2026<\/p>\n

A few weeks after Condi muttered some sanity, she now embraces the Wahhabi \u201cpeace\u201d plan. She couldn\u2019t be doing this unless her boss agreed. And I voted for him.<\/p>\n

Mind you that besides calling for Israel to return to its submicroscopic, armistice line existence–before allegedly gaining Arab \u201crecognition\u201d of its right to exist (would you like to know where Arabs can stick that recognition?), the Jew of the Nations must also consent to being inundated by millions of jihadi alleged refugees.<\/p>\n

Reality check…<\/p>\n

When the United Nations Relief Works Agency–UNRWA–was set up to assist Arab refugees (after the Arabs invaded a nascent Israel in 1948 and their attempt backfired), the very word refugee had to be redefined to assist those people.<\/p>\n

So many Arabs were recent arrivals themselves into the Palestinian Mandate that UNRWA had to adjust the very definition of “refugee” from its prior meaning of persons normally and traditionally resident to those who lived in the Mandate for a minimum of only two years prior to 1948.<\/p>\n

Do you really understand what this is saying about many if not most of those alleged native Arab aborigines ?<\/p>\n

Also recall that for every Arab who was forced to flee the fighting that they themselves started (after all, how dare Jews want in one tiny, resurrected state what Arabs demand for themselves in some two dozen others), a Jewish refugee was forced to flee Arab\/Muslim lands into Israel and elsewhere…but with no UNRWA set up to assist them. The latter account for one half of Israel\u2019s Jewish population today.<\/p>\n

But, hold onto your seats…there’s breaking news !<\/p>\n

Amid all of these developments regarding the Middle East, I bet you missed the latest coming out of Venezuela.<\/p>\n

President Hugo Chavez has evidently tired of his spat with Washington and has offered to bury the hatchet.<\/p>\n

Here\u2019s Hugo’s Peace Plan:<\/p>\n

First, to show good faith, the United States must pay billions of dollars in reparations for its capitalist exploitation over the past two centuries of Latin America–its people and its resources. This has sired deep resentment among the Latin Street.<\/p>\n

Washington must then rescind its Monroe Doctrine. After all, what right does one sovereign nation have to tell another sovereign nation whom it can or can\u2019t have relations with and what the extent of those relations must be?<\/p>\n

The United States must next agree to give back California, Texas, New Mexico, and the entire southwest\u2026lands conquered and forcibly gringoized from Latin Americans.<\/p>\n

Finally, Washington must agree to an unlimited return of millions of the descendants of those Latins who were displaced during America\u2019s drive for its Manifest Destiny. Any border fences or walls must also be taken down as well to help facilitate this.<\/p>\n

If Washington agrees to all of the above, President Chavez will recognize America\u2019s right to exist in its new constricted borders\u2026despite the obvious problem involving native Americans. Since Latin America has that same problem south of the border, El Presidente decided not to make a point of this.<\/p>\n

For the sake of justice and peace for all time, Washington must consent to Chavez\u2019s offer, or it will be seen as being merely the imperialist, exploitative, capitalist, expansionist, war-mongering nation that many already accuse it of being.<\/p>\n

So\u2026how do you like them apples?<\/p>\n

Well, I guess you know by now that Chavez didn\u2019t really come up with this plan.<\/p>\n

But think about it a minute\u2026.and then think about what Condi and her boss are setting Israel up for.<\/p>\n

The only real difference is that Jews have lived continuously–despite ups and downs–in the land of Israel for over 3,000 years. Their presence and wars for freedom and independence are well documented by the Romans and others themselves. Can Dubya say that about his ranch in Texas?<\/p>\n

Arabs conquered scores of millions of non-Arab Kurds, Berbers, Copts, Assyrians, Jews, black Africans, etc. and so forth and then called the latters\u2019 lands \u201cpurely Arab patrimony.\u201d And the American State Department has repeatedly supported such garbage. As I like to frequently point out, a roadmap for thirty million truly stateless Kurds is still not on the Foggy Folks’ agenda, while they insist on creating a 22nd state for Arabs.<\/p>\n

Condi\u2019s answer is that the Saudi Peace (of the grave) Plan will be a \u201cbasis for negotiations.\u201d<\/p>\n

Baloney!<\/p>\n

What\u2019s to negotiate? Let’s see…<\/p>\n

“Okay, Arabs, we\u2019ll meet you half way. We\u2019ll \u201conly\u201d agree to have half as many alleged millions of jihadis as you insist upon shoved down our throats\u2026and that after we\u2019re forced to become a nine-mile wide speck of a state again.”<\/p>\n

I don\u2019t think so.<\/p>\n

As many of us have been pointing out, the stench of Munich \u201838 is indeed again in the air… peace for all time, with Israel instead of the Czechs as the sacrificial offering.<\/p>\n

This is the time to hold our ground and insist on peace terms for Israel that we ourselves would expect\u2026as Dr. Rice pretended she was doing a few weeks back.<\/p>\n

Hamas and Abbas\u2019s Fatah both deny Israel\u2019s right to exist as a Jewish state\u2026no matter what their assorted whitewashers say.<\/p>\n

Jews shouldn\u2019t be squeezed by their \u201cfriends\u201d into suicide the way the Czechs were. And keep in mind that the world soon found itself at war anyway because the Nazis wanted far more than the Sudetenland and Czechoslovakia.<\/p>\n

Now substitute for the latter Judea and Samaria–the \u201cWest Bank\u201d–and Israel today and ask yourselves if delivering the Jews on a silver platter will cure our own jihadist ills.<\/p>\n

The Saudis must stuff their \u201cpeace plan\u201d in the same place where that earlier “recognition” we discussed must be placed.<\/p>\n

Israel must hold new elections and get itself leaders who will offer Arabs peace for peace, recognition for recognition, and negotiate a compromise over disputed–not \u201cpurely Arab\u201d territories.<\/p>\n

There is much that both Arabs and Jews can gain from each other in a peaceful Middle East.<\/p>\n

But the Arabs still have not come up with an honest plan for this to occur.<\/p>\n

While it may be easier to turn the screws on six million Israeli Jews than on hundreds of millions of rejectionist Arabs and their other Muslim supporters, is this really something that America wants to do?<\/p>\n

If not, the time is now to let the powers that be know this.<\/p>\n

And it wouldn\u2019t hurt to think about Hugo’s \u201cpeace plan\u201d again when considering Israel\u2019s on-going fight for survival.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
