Google's Foreign Policy


Intelligence and education are wonderful things, but without wisdom, are worth a pile of *drek.

That's exactly the results the largest internet search engine, Google has acquired with their recent actions...opening up a domain specifically for the Palestinian Authority (PA) and Gaza Arabs. They have taken a political stand, not one based upon facts...and not a wise business choice, to boot.

There is a preponderance of evidence to prove that there is, in fact, no such people as 'palestinians'. 'Palestine has never existed as an independent entity...ever. It was controlled by Rome, by the Ottoman Empire and, temporarily, by the British following WW I. The Brits then consented to restore part of the land to the Jewish people as their homeland.

But, hey...don't believe me, here's Palestine Liberation Organization executive committee member Zahir Muhsein, in an interview printed in a Dutch newspaper (Trouw) on March 31, 1977:
"The Palestinian people does not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct "Palestinian people" to oppose Zionism."For tactical reasons, Jordan, which is a sovereign state with defined borders, cannot raise claims to Haifa and Jaffa, while as a Palestinian, I can undoubtedly demand Haifa, Jaffa, Beer-Sheva and Jerusalem. However, the moment we reclaim our right to all of Palestine, we will not wait even a minute to unite Palestine and Jordan."

Now let's remember...Arabs control 99.9% of the Middle East. Israel represents 1/10th of 1% of the region. So almost EVERYTHING is not enough for the Arabs, huh? A wee bit of a covetous crew...

The Middle East conflict is a hot property, and to tread upon this sod ignorantly is not only feckless...but egregious. Google that...

Shalom through strength...
