The Truth About Israel And Palestine: Part Nine
by Bob Siegel
The PLO was chased out of Jordan in 1970, from Lebanon in 1982 and from Syria in 1985. During this turbulent period, they murdered literally tens of thousands of people!
Evans and Novak interviewed a Lebanese doctor whose farm had been seized by the PLO and transformed into a military outpost. According to this report, the PLO would invade apartment complexes, removing the inhabitants to make room for the storage of ammunition and explosives. Fathers were shot in front of their own families. This was followed by the routine, ongoing rape of innocent females. 100,000 such rapes are estimated but it may have been as many as 300,000.
Lebanese surgeon Dr. Khalil Torbey said:
“I treated men whose testicles had been cut off in torture sessions. I saw like men dragged through the streets by fast moving cares to which they were tied by their feet. I know of cases of people being thrown into acid tanks and reduced to unrecognizable masses of porous bone. Many young girls came to me for abortions after being raped by PLO gangsters.” 1
Professor Augustus H. Strong shares a harrowing tale:
“The PLO killed Susan’s father and brother and raped her mother who suffered a hemorrhage and died. They raped Susan many times, cut off her breasts and shot her. Later found without her 4 limbs. So battered had to be amputated. Now she has only the upper part of one arm.” (Quoted by Professor Augustus H. Strong in Morey The Islamic Invasion)
How did the world chose to deal with Yasser Arafat, the murderer and rapist? By awarding him the Nobel Peace Prize. After all he shook hands once with Israeli Prime Minister Yitzuk Rabin. In fact, Arafat has denounced terrorism many times. Here is an example of how he used to call for “peace.”
“I as Chairman of Palestine Liberation Organization hereby once more declare that I condemn terrorism in all its forms.”
Sounds great so far. Unfortunately, he went on to say;
“I also offer a reverent salute to the martyrs who have fallen at the hand of terrorism and terrorists, foremost among whom is my lifelong companion and deputy, the martyr symbol Khalili-al-Wazir (Abu-Jihad who planned and directed some of the words massacres of Israeli citizens.) 2
Get it? Terrorism was defined by this weasel as what Israel had done to the PLO, not what the PLO had done to Israel.
One of today’s tired Politically Correct phrases says, “One man’s terrorist is another man’s freedom fighter.”
How clever! Wow! Yeah, I get men like George Washington confused with Yasser Arafat all the time! Unfortunately, these mindless sayings are quite effective if repeated often enough.
