America and Britain claim to be allies of Israel.
There is no gainsaying the deep links between them of military assistance,
intelligence and trade. Israel is the invaluable strategic asset for America
and Britain in the Middle East, a crucial bulwark in the defence of the
west. And yet both America and Britain
undermine Israel’s security and defence against existential attack by
sanitising, promoting and funding Palestinian Arabs, whose active cause remains
the destruction of the Jewish state.
A recent event illustrated this particularly sharply
when British diplomatic officials in Jerusalem effectively endorsed the
Palestinian Authority’s agenda to eradicate Israel. Palestinian Media Watch has revealed that
at last Friday’s annual “Palestine Marathon” held by the PA, seven British
officials taking part as “#TeamUK” wore marathon T-shirts displaying the
PA’s map that erases Israel and represents the whole country as Palestine. The Jewish Chronicle reports that the team consisted of
the UK’s Deputy Consul General Alison McEwen and Foreign Office colleagues. A
picture of the team was tweeted from the official account of the British
Consulate in Jerusalem, hailing “the incredible Palestine Marathon to support
#FREEDOMOFMOVEMENT for all Palestinians”.
Palestinian Media Watch observes that this hashtag
was conceived to support the PA’s demand that Israel remove the security
measures it has adopted to prevent the flow of Palestinian terrorists from
PA-controlled areas into Israel’s cities.
According to The
Jewish Chronicle, the marathon was organised by a group called
“Right to Movement,” which campaigns against “the many obstacles that we live
daily under fascist racist occupation”.
The race was held under the auspices of the Palestine Liberation
Organisation Supreme Council for Youth and Sports headed by Jibril Rajoub, a
man who has been convicted of numerous terrorist offences and who persistently
glorifies Palestinian terrorist murderers.
So these British diplomats took part in an event
supervised by a terrorist sympathiser; openly supported the Palestinian Arabs’
lie that Israel is subjecting them to “fascist racist occupation”; openly
opposed Israel’s measures to protect its citizens against attack; and openly
endorsed the eradication of Israel altogether.
The current British government under Prime Minister
Rishi Sunak contains an unprecedented number of Israel supporters. So how can
its diplomats have displayed such egregious hostility to Israel’s security and
even its very existence? The consular
bodies run by both Britain and America in Jerusalem, which provide assistance
to the Palestinian Arabs in the east of the city, the disputed territories and
in the Gaza Strip, have long been viewed by the Israeli government as working
against Israeli interests.
What is the reason for this two-faced attitude?
There’s a charitable explanation and a less charitable one.
The charitable one is that neither the American nor
British government accepts that the PA’s objective is the extermination of
Israel. This is because these governments are committed to the “two-state
solution”. It requires them to define the problem to which this is the solution
as the division of land between two sets of people with legitimate claims to
that land. This is clearly untrue. The
PA’s own repeated statements, its maps and insignia depicting a state of
Palestine that erases Israel, its incitement to seize Israeli cities such as
Haifa and Jaffa and its support for terrorism all show that its aim is Israel’s
destruction.
Yet the American and British governments can’t allow
themselves to acknowledge this. Partly, this is due to pressure from the Arab
world. Mostly, though, it’s due to the implacable liberal belief in conflict
resolution and peace processes.
Since the Americans and British can’t allow anything
to disrupt such a peace process, they ignore any evidence of a non-negotiable
and unconscionable agenda. So Israel,
which has always been willing to negotiate and has indeed offered a Palestinian
state on numerous occasions, gets blamed for endangering the peace process when
it insists on defending itself against never-ending Palestinian Arab
terrorism. That liberal tunnel vision
helps explain why the Biden administration funds the PA even though it
continues its “pay-for-slay” stipends to terrorists’ families.
The less charitable explanation, meanwhile, is that some of those promoting the Palestinian Arab cause are motivated by malign hatred of Israel and the Jewish people.
