ISRAEL TRUTH TIMES: weapons

Chaya sent this:

Shalom my dear friends, anyone familiar with the power of this vehicle????

Is the State of Israel REALLY so pressured by the world (and that's NO EXCUSE!!!) as to let the Palestinian Authority to get

50 OF THESE VEHICLES?! ]

It isn't too late - the 50 vehicles are STILL IN JORDAN. STOP THEM!!! (and not the settlements!!!).

Can anyone explain why the PA needs an AMPHIBIOUS VEHICLE??? Is it to bring them to GAZA where they can easily infiltrate ASHKELON??? or through the Dead Sea to attack JERUSALEM (a VERY famous army-trick to attack Jerusalem from eons ago)???

From link below: "Israel has authorized the transfer but opposes the installation of heavy machine guns on the vehicles that the PA is demanding."

Pal-------eeeze. This vehicle is an ARMY vehicle.

And also from source below: "Barak has authorized the transfer of 1,000 Kalashnikov rifles to forces [PLO-Fatah terrorists!] controlled by PA chief Mahmoud Abbas [Shoah-Ph.D. denier & hijacker of the Achille Lauro]."

Why is Israel letting the PA have an army - yet saying they can't?

And an old Question of mine: Why is Israel continuing the farce of PLO/Fatah 'loving' the State of Israel?

GALVANIZE A NEW CAMPAIGN: ARMED ARABS MEAN DEAD JEWS

Galvanize a New Campaign: Armed Arabs Mean Dead Jews

Today's announcement that the gov't of Israel will supply 1000 more kalashnikovs to the PLO at a time when the PLO remains in a state of war with Israel amounts to an act of premeditated murder and, moreover, a war crime against the people of Israel.

We have been through this already.

Is there anyone anywhere ready to back up a campaign to galvanize public opinion against such a policy?

Does anyone have a loved one murdered by an Arab who would stand behind such a campaign?

Do we have to wait for more funerals?

1,000 Kalashnikovs approved for PA
Jul. 6, 2009
Yaakov Katz , THE JERUSALEM POST

Defense Minister Ehud Barak has approved the transfer of 1,000 automatic weapons to the Palestinian Authority, defense officials said Sunday, on the eve of Barak's meeting in London with US special envoy to the Middle East George Mitchell.

The gesture was approved several weeks ago in response to a PA request but the transfer of the Kalashnikov rifles has been held up due to ballistic tests that the IDF runs on all weapons transferred to the PA. This way, the IDF will be able to know if one of the weapons is used in a terror attack.

This is the second major transfer of weapons to the Palestinians approved by Israel in the past year. Fifty BTR-70 armored vehicles, donated by Russia are currently waiting in Jordan for final checks before being transferred to the PA.

Meanwhile, defense officials said that the Palestinian Authority was having difficulty recruiting new soldiers into the battalions that it is trying to form to be trained by United States Security Coordinator Lt.-Gen. Keith Dayton.

Barak, the officials said, planned to raise the issue during his meeting with Mitchell.

Four Palestinian battalions trained by Dayton have already deployed in the West Bank, in Jenin, Hebron, Jericho and Bethlehem, totaling over 2,000 soldiers. Another three battalions are supposed to be added, bringing the number up to 4,000.

But Israeli officials said Sunday that while Israel supported the enlargement of the force, the PA was encountering difficulty in finding Palestinian youth interested in serving in the security forces.

"The process is moving slowly," one official said. "If there were more people willing to enlist then there would be more battalions training and deploying in the West Bank."

The official said that many Palestinians had despaired of the chances for peace and were still scarred by the second intifada, which erupted in the West Bank in 2000.

In addition, the acceptance process for these battalions is extremely selective, since the PA wants to prevent people affiliated with Hamas from infiltrating the ranks.

.... And let me remind you about "BARAK'S PLAN":

LET THE ARABS DO THE DIRTY WORK:

Barak's Plan

(6/28. INN)

Defense Minister Barak, on the eve of his departure for Washington, is hoping that his easing of travel for Arabs in the PA-areas – removal of most checkpoints and the issuing of hundreds of free-pass BMC (businessman) cards – will encourage the Americans to be more lenient on the matter of settlements. "If we have significant progress in talks with the Palestinians, the issue of the settlements will become less central," Haaretz reported Barak as saying.

SO WHAT DO YOU THINK BARAK THE MURDERER'S PLANS ARE?

1. REMOVE THE CHECKPOINTS, GIVE THE PA ARABS FREE RANGE

2. GIVE THEM WEAPONS, ADDING TO WHAT THEY ALREADY HAVE, IN CASE THEY DON'T HAVE ENOUGH - how many do they need: one AK 47 per each man, woman and child??? -

3. LET THEM DO WHAT THEY KNOW HOW TO DO BEST, AND WHAT THEIR WHOLE GOAL IN LIFE IS: KILL JEWS.

BARAK THE SNAKE SHOULD BE TRIED FOR TREASON AND PREMEDITATED MURDER, AND SHOULD GET THE DEATH PENALTY.
