Facing Reality About Radical Islam
Dear Editor:
Muslims and Jews see their conflict from opposing viewpoints.
Based on history and international law, Jews believe they have the right to live in their ancestral homeland.
Muslims are fighting a religious war. Jews, Christians and other Infidels are Dhimmi. They are to be dominated and humiliated. The Arab term for blacks is Abeed, meaning slave.
The principal of lying to the Infidel to gain an advantage is called Taqiyya and is enshrined in the Koran.
Arabs spread out of Arabia in the 7th century, conquering and occupying much of the known world. They believe any land, once Muslim, is Muslim forever.
Following World War One, the San Remo Accords established mandates for Palestine, Transjordan, Lebanon, Syria and Iraq.
The 1920s saw the founding of the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt and the rise of Nazism in Europe. The Brotherhood’s aim was and is to spread the Caliphate among the unbelievers.
The leader of the mandates’ Arabs was Nazi war criminal Haj Amin al-Husseini, Grand Mufti of Jerusalem.
In 1947, the United Nations suggested splitting the British mandate, promised the Jews by the League of Nations and Article 80 of the UN Charter, into Arab and Jewish states. The Jews agreed. The Arabs did not and launched the Nakba to ‘drive the Jews into the sea’.
Mandate Jews were called Palestinians. Arabs identified mostly as Syrians or Egyptians. In 1964, the Soviet KGB formed the Palestine Liberation Army. They named Israel, ‘Palestine’ and non-Jews, ‘Palestinians’. Terrorism was their tool to focus attention on the ‘Palestine’ narrative.
Seventy-five years after the establishment of Israel, Islamo-fascists still have not accepted it as a permanent feature in the Middle East.
It’s time for radical Islam and the useful idiots who support it, to face reality and to solve the refugee problem created by corrupt Arabs and the United Nations.

Nadler Does Not Deserve the Jewish Vote
Dear Editor:
Congressmember Jerry Nadler calling Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu the worst leader of Jews in 2,000 years makes no sense. His words define him as the worst Jewish member of Congress since our nation’s founding in 1776.
Israel has every right to preserve its security by eliminating Hamas. The crises would not have taken place had Hamas not launched its Oct. 7 terrorist attack.
Nadler also lost his way by not supporting securing our own border with both Mexico and Canada. We have no idea how many terrorists, criminals, gang members, drug dealers and pedophiles were among the 7 million illegal immigrants who have come into our nation without being first vetted.
His voting record all too often mirrors that of Congressmember Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) and other members of the extreme left Democratic Party caucus. He was one of only 41 members who voted against House Resolution H.RS 883 that condemned the chant “From the River to the Sea, Palestine Will be Free” as anti Semitic which passed with 377 votes in favor.
Nadler is clearly treif for Jewish voters. Nadler doesn’t deserve a financial campaign contribution or your vote in 2024. Diogenes is looking for a main stream moderate candidate who would be a true friend of Netanyahu and Israel to run against him this year.

Larry Penner
Palestinian Statehood Not a “Consensus Position”
Dear Editor:
Many American supporters of Israel and Israeli politicians are excited about President Trump’s new statements against Palestinian statehood. But there has been lots of disinformation accompanying this praise too. On a popular Jewish news website one analyst wrote that Trump’s comments were “a significant pivot away from what has largely been a consensus position on the conflict among US politicians for decades.”
The thing is that Palestinian statehood hasn’t been the consensus position, either during the entire period since 1948 nor in recent decades. American presidents have favored Palestinian statehood in only 22 of the past 76 years and inconsistently at that.
In 2002, George W. Bush became the first sitting American president to endorse creation of a Palestinian Arab state. But it is not correct to say that Palestinian statehood has been a “consensus position among US politicians” for the past two decades. That’s because while the Republican Party platform did endorse Bush’s position in 2004, 2008 and 2012, the GOP pointedly removed that clause from its 2016 platform and did not restore it in 2020—meaning that Palestinian statehood has not been the Republican Party’s position for the past eight years.

Jews Fighting Back on College Campuses
Dear Editor:
On some campuses we have thousands of Jews in Hillel or Chabad. When the Hamas villains take over a campus or shout “ KILL THE JEWS.” where are the counter demonstrations by the Jewish students in mass? This is only the beginning of violence and potential physical harm and even murder. The only message Hamas and all anti-Semites understand is fight violence with violence. The police and the National Guard may be needed, but only learning how to defend ourselves and action in masse by JEWS will stop this insanity.
Learn a lesson from ISRAEL and speak with a loud voice and intimidate the enemy. They say “ we are Hamas, “ We must answer that we are “Israel.” Rabbi Kahane, of blessed memory, was correct in absolutely everything he said. I predicted what is happening now in my numerous books. Learn from history. Never Again means “Never Again.”

Empty Chair for Sen. Chuck Schumer
Dear Editor:
Like many of us, I had an empty setting at my seder table this year for the Israelis being held hostage in Gaza.
I was seriously considering a second empty chair, though—for Sen. Chuck Schumer. Here’s why. Remember when Clint Eastwood, at the 2012 Republican National Convention, gave an address in which he set up an empty chair next to him, which he said was to symbolize what he felt was then-President Barack Obama’s lack of leadership? Sure it was corny, but we all got his point. In my opinion, Senator Schumer is this year’s symbol of emptiness. His attack on Israel’s prime minister showed that he is empty of morals, good sense, and respect for Israeli democracy. By having an empty chair for him at my seder table, I would be making a statement about just how empty he is.
Sincerely,
Moshe Levine
