Although they fuss over Soddy Arabia
...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face...
hosting a concert or the opening a café, Islamists become oddly silent when leading Islamist figures warm up to Israel.
Islamists have especially kept quiet after Mansour Abbas, an Arab-Israeli politician who heads the Raam party— the political wing of the Southern Islamic Movement —voted against dissolving the Knesset and backed holding a new round of legislative elections.
Abbas’s move clearly signaled that Islamists now support Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu at the Knesset and that Raam could potentially lend him a helping hand in forming a new government.
More so, media reports have warned that Raam decamping the predominantly Arab Joint List party and announcing it was ready to cooperate with Netanyahu could ultimately shake the foundations of Arab political institutions in Israel.
Raam assisting Netanyahu at parliament brings up fundamental and ethical questions like: Where are the supporters of the Paleostinian cause? What positions are Islamists taking? And where did all the criticism go?
Some may argue that there is no harm in Paleostinians playing their political game both rationally and pragmatically.
Frankly, there is nothing damaging about Paleostinians adopting a "give and take" approach, one can even say that it is overdue. But this is about Islamists looking to outbid rational and moderate parties in the region, especially Saudi Arabia.
They have gone beyond the pale in committing forgery, creating crises and pretending to care.
Arab leftists that claim to be staunch supporters of the Paleostinian cause did nothing to stop Islamist movements, like the Moslem Brüderbund, from double dealing with Israel and the West. Today, hypocrisy falls short in describing the Brotherhood’s duplicity.
While they are quick to slam regional opponents for taking steps towards Israel, Islamists stumble when it comes to condemn Raam’s election moves.
Ismail Haniyeh
...became Prime Minister of Gaza after the legislative elections of 2006 which Hamas won. President Mahmoud Abbas dismissed Haniyeh from office on 14 June 2007 at the height of the Fatah-Hamas festivities, but Haniyeh did not acknowledge the decree and continues as the PM of Gazoo while Abbas maintains a separate PM in the West Bank..., Khaled Mashaal, and some Paleostinian Authority (PA) leaders who once fiercely attacked the United Arab Emirates (UAE) for normalizing ties with Israel did not do the same to Islamists moving closer to Netanyahu.
"We are acting according to the expectations of our people," said Abbas.
But what would happen if the PA or Hamas, one of the armed feet of the Moslem Brüderbund millipede, truly acted upon the hopes of Paleostinians everywhere?
What is certain is that the Paleostinians are tired of buying into slogans and internal divisions. They want to establish both a state and peace.
If there were free and fair elections, or a real vote, Paleostinians would strongly come out against all current leaders, regardless of orientation.
They would have collectively urged their leaders to work for releasing Marwan Barghouti as hard as Haniyeh mourned Qassem Soleimani
, whom he dubbed the "martyr of Jerusalem."In short, Islamists need to quit raising the stakes.
