Before providing recognition of the importance of the election of el-Sisi in Egypt, tomorrow, three points

merit notice: one domestic [Guzzardi], one both domestic and international [Benghazi-Gate], and one
international [ZOA]. Two extended reports are reprinted; the essay by former-Congressman West is
available on the Internet, but it is so concise that its full flavor should be appreciated; the ZOA-report is
chuck-full of specifics but, alas, is not on the Internet and, thus, the entire e-mail has been provided.

Otherwise, the only particularly insightful hyperlink IDed overnight was to an essay
advising conservatives to defeat the media by staying on-message, a useful reminder.

The reason these Egypt-focused hyperlinks were preserved and reformulated was to formulate an
indictment of BHOs entire approach to the Middle East and, in this instance, to the Magreb; his zealous
support for Morsis Muslim Brotherhood was unnerving, and it reflects his warped [and dangerous]
worldview which SHOULD upset thinking-people. Indeed, my broadside against Marcel Groen, Esquire
would best be amplified by awareness of this entire debacle, for el-Sisi is resolutely providing the sorely-
needed Islamic Reformation that history has yearned to witness for thirteen centuries. Thus, America
should be encouraging him, instead of driving him to the Russians and the Saudis for support; therefore,
fealty for what he has accomplished benefits BOTH Israel and America, showing again how the interests
of both countries cannot reasonably be distinguished [much as BHO keeps trying to do].

To skim the Egypt-Compilation, first read-through two essays [one by Nonie Darwish
that captures the fear women experience when dealing with Islamists, and one
depicting the immediate reaction to the overthrow-coup of el-Sisi against Morsi]. Then,
note a few overview essays [regarding the Arab Spring and el-Sisis Reformation, in
particular], and gain an appreciation for the violence [that occurred throughout Egypt
and, particularly, in the Sinai]. Next, note how Morsis Muslim Brotherhood persecuted
Christians, but that elements of Jihad have not been purged. Moreover, note the
components of the coup that transpired, and recognize how BHO opposed others
[including in Congress] as he resolutely supported Morsis Muslim Brotherhood [perhaps
due to its having infiltrated the BHO-Administration]. Finally, compare/contrast the
Egypt of Morsi with the reaction to his ouster [both regional and worldwide].

Regarding PA, a friends observed that The rule of law in the United States is deceased because a
Judge allowed long-time Dem Rep. Conyers onto primary ballot despite his having submitted less than
half of the requisite signatures. The money-quote in the opinion/order reflected precisely what
transpired in Guzzardis case; the judge cited evidence that the failure to comply with the law was a
"result of good-faith mistakes and that (circulators) believed they were in compliance with the statute"].
His view mirrors mine [as per multiple blast e-mails], namely, that Guzzardi still should have appealed
[to Federal Court] so as not to let stand the precedent of the PA Supreme Court, which stands in
contrast to virtually every precedent in the U.S. concerning ballot eligibility - as well as increasing
cynicism of the grass roots.

Also note Corbett placed new restrictions on gas drilling involving state lands, but PA-
Gov: Corbett Expanded Drilling to State Parks and Forests [contradiction?]; Bykofsky
says Schwartz is a cry baby. Also, Diamond defeated write-in effort on GOP ticket in
102nd District, but will have fall opponent; and With ballots still being counted, Rep.
Mike Fleck trails primary foe.

The most concise presentation of the Benghazi-Gate chronology has appeared; it is consistent with prior
[sporadic] reports, and it should serve as a useful working-hypothesis as the public monitors the Select
Committee, while it accrues data [depositions, etc.] prior to anticipated summertime hearings:

Confidential source reveals to me what really happened in Benghazi

Written by Allen West on May 23, 2014

We are so glad you are here! Please consider supporting this website by whitelisting
allenbwest.com in your adblocker. Thanks!

Today as I returned from Detroit, I had a moment that I truly felt was God sent, as I
dont believe in coincidences. It happened on one of my flights, and it was two hours I
will never forget.

I was seated beside someone who personally knew one of the men who was there on
the roof in Benghazi. This person was excited to share with me the ground truth of
what happened September 11, 2012.

My seat mate drew schematics to orient me to the time and spacing and the direction
of the attack. I learned about the repeated orders to the men at the CIA annex to stand
down and do nothing thank God two of them, Glenn Doherty and Ty Woods, lived up
to their code of honor and ran to the sound of the guns, resulting in their loss of life
but the preservation of life for others, their fellow Americans.

I learned about the proximity of the staging area of the attack to the U.S. Consulate in
Benghazi, and the attackers were indeed Ansar al-Sharia, a group affiliated with al-
Qaida. I came to understand why Ambassador Chris Stevens was there in the first place
and that he had in fact requested better security but was denied the question is, by
whom? And I learned that the Martyrs of 17 February Brigade were in charge of security
and were the ones who opened the gates, then fled.

I learned there are those who are being threatened with their pensions being cut off if
they come forth to speak.

And I learned, as I presumed, that there was a covert weapons scheme going on in
Libya, Benghazi. We had been supplying radical Islamists with weapons against Libyan
President Moammar Gadhafi, effectively supplying the enemy and destabilizing that
country. And it seems that there was a CIA weapons buy-back program, the aim of
which was to ship the retrieved weapons out of Libya through Turkey, and to the
Islamist forces in Syria.

Benghazi and the operations in Libya are shrouded in a fog of lies, deceit, manipulation,
threats, intimidation, coercion, abandonment, and worst of all, potentially treason.

No, it was not about a kidnapping scheme, it was about something, as Ive stated, that
will make Iran-Contra look like Romper Room. The web of lies spun is coming apart, and
all other committee hearings on this matter should be shut down.

The House has established a Select Committee quite telling that the same has not
been done in the Senate and those involved, to include the President, MUST appear
before Rep. Trey Gowdy.

And to those Democrats appointed to the committee: if you seek to obstruct the
revelation of the truth, you are complicit and guilty as well.

Am I afraid because of what I now know? Heck no. Im honored to have been entrusted,
so I for one can be on the right side of history.

The second is an e-mail from the ZOA [that isnt hyperlinked to the Internet] detailing what occurred
during its annual lobbying-mission; the bipartisan all-stars who spoke at the luncheon would be viewed
as unprecedented were it not to be consistently achievedyear after yearduring this daylong event.

Sen. Menendez/Sen. Kirk Receive ZOA Defender Of Zion Award

Hundreds Of ZOA Activists On Capitol Hill:
Link P.A. Aid To Compliance;
More Iran Sanctions;
Affirm Jewish Legal/Historical Right To Live In Judea/Samaria

Hundreds of activists from 23 states across the country participated in the Zionist
Organization of America (ZOA)s Annual Advocacy Mission to Washington, D.C. on
Wednesday, May 21, 2014. Meeting with almost 100 Members of Congress or their
legislative staffers, ZOA activists urged them to:

1) Support S. 2265 (Stand with Israel Act of 2014) and H.R. 1337
(Palestinian Accountability Act) which would oppose further U.S. aid to
Mahmoud Abbas Palestinian Authority (PA) (currently over $600 million
per annum) until it fulfils its signed agreements under Oslo: to arrest
and imprison terrorists; to dismantle and to outlaw terrorist groups; to
end incitement to hatred and murder within the PA-controlled media,
mosques, schools and youth camps; to end the PA alliance with Hamas;
and to recognize Israel as a Jewish state.

2) Support S. 1881 (Nuclear Weapon Free Iran Act of 2013) and
H.R. 850 (Nuclear Iran Prevention Act of 2013) which would lead to
imposing new, tough sanctions on Iran in the event that it violates the
Geneva Interim Agreement with the U.S. and Europe (P5+1) and fails to
agree to ending its nuclear weapons program, given that the Iranian
regime has called for the destruction of Israel, America and the defeat
of the West. The ZOA also requested Members of Congress to support
U.S. and/or Israeli military action against Iran should it prove necessary
in order to stop Iran going nuclear.

3) Support and understand the legal, historical, religious and
political right of Jews to live in Judea/Samaria and to oppose the canard,
based on a w illful and politicized distortion and intentional
misinterpretation of Article 49 of the Fourth Geneva Convention, that
Israels presence there is unlawful and a war crime.

At the ZOAs spectacular Congressional Luncheon, held prior to the congressional
meetings in a magnificent room in the Russell Senate Office Building on Constitution
Ave., ZOA activists were addressed by Democratic and Republican U.S. Congress-People.

ZOA National President Morton A. Klein said, It is so inspiring to the ZOA and our
delegates to hear these fabulous, pro-Israel speeches by the most important Members
of Congress, which included the Chairs of both the Senate and House Foreign Relations
Committees and several potential presidential candidates. One delegate after another
made it clear to me that they were thrilled to spend a day in their lives to fight for Israel,
for strong U.S./Israel relations, and to educate Members of Congress about the truth
about the on-going Arab war against Israel, which seeks Israels destruction, not any sort
of negotiated settlement.

Mort Klein introduced Senator Bob Menendez (DNJ), Chairman of the Senate Foreign
Relations Committee, acknowledging his great work, reminiscing of a meeting
between Senator Menendez and Jewish leaders in which the Senator had the most
knowledge and was the most pro-Israel out of any one in that room.

He has done tremendous work in the field of security since 9/11, has
given extraordinary speeches about Israel and has been leading with the
introduction of the Nuclear Free Iran Act of 2013. In presenting him
with the ZOAs Defender of Zion Award, Mort said, Senator Menendez
has shown extraordinary courage in speaking out; even on issues he
knows that much of his party may not be there with him.

Senator Menendez praised Mort and the ZOAs working, saying, Mort
Klein works every day for a strong durable American Israeli relationship
... I am very honored to receive this award ... I have had an unwavering
view that it is in the national interest of the United States to have a
strong relationship with the state of Israel, an island of democracy. As
Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, I reject any call
for boycotts, divestment or any statement that Israel risks becoming an
apartheid state ... Mahmoud Abbas must decide between a future of a
Palestinian state side by side with the Jewish state of Israel, or an
unholy marriage with Hamas, which has consequences under U.S. law. If
it comes to fruition, I will seek to enforce the provisions of U.S. law that
say that US money cannot go to a terrorist regime ... Quite frankly, Im
nervous about any impending deal with Iran. We need the right deal,
not just any deal. A nuclear armed Iran would be an existential threat to
state of Israel. It would become an even greater threat to the region,
exporting terrorists, sending fighters to Syria ... I introduced with my
colleague Senator Kirk the latest round of sanctions, so we can send the
message that, if Iran doesnt agree, consequences follow ... We must
fight back against the efforts to delegitimize the Jewish state ... I have
taken a bipartisan effort every step of the way on Iran sanctions and will
continue to do so.

ZOA Board member Jim Pollack introduced Senator Mark Kirk (RIL), observing that,
for Mark Kirk, no issue is more important than the safety and security of the State of
Israel. Senator Kirk doesnt just co-sponsor pro-Israel legislation, he initiates and he
authors it. There is no better friend in Washington, DC than this gentleman.

In 2009, during the Gaza invasion, Senator Kirk said, Something is
rotten in Gaza and its time to take out the trash. Senator Kirk
introduced himself by saying Im the pro-Israel senator who replaced
Barack Obama in the U.S. Senate. ... When youre told to temporize
what youre doing in support of Israel, or to back off, dont. Defend the
State of Israel and do exactly what you believe in. Senator Kirk, who
was presented by Mort Klein with the ZOAs Defender of Zion Award,
added, One of the reasons I ran for the Senate was to protect Israel.
Now, I need your help. There has been a $200 million cut in missile
defense for Israel. Together with our friends in ZOA, well reverse that.

Mort Klein introduced Senator Ted Cruz (RTX), a potential presidential candidate,
joking that, Not only do I support everything youve done, but Ill support everything
you will do.

Senator Cruz said, Its great to be back with so many dear friends at
ZOA. Thank you for repeatedly and relentlessly standing up and
speaking the truth ... Next week Ill travel back to Israel for the third
time in the past year and a half ... The good news is that there remains
some possibility for unity and clarity here when it comes to national
security and speaking up against Iranian aggression... The appointment
by Iran as ambassador to the UN someone who participated in the
seizure of U.S. hostages in Tehran in 1979 was intended as slap in the
face to the United States. I introduced legislation to bar his admission to
the U.S. That legislation passed 1000 in the Senate and 435 to nothing
in the House. Just a few weeks ago, President Obama signed it into law.
We will not allow known terrorists to live in New York City with
diplomatic immunity. The bad news, as everyone in this room
appreciates, the greatest national security threat to the U.S. and Israel is
the threat of a nuclear Iran. I agree with Prime Minister Netanyahu that
the Geneva Interim deal signed by the P5=1 with Iran is an historic
mistake. Im proud to say I was an original co-sponsor of Kirk
Menendez, but Im sorry to say it has not come to a vote on the floor,
because Harry Reid will not let come to a vote, because President
Obama doesnt want it come to a vote. The rational thing to do would
be reimpose sanctions and strengthen them. We should say to Iran, If
you want sanctions lifted, there is a simple path dismantle every
centrifuge and hand over all enriched uranium ... I feel we are
repeating the mistake of the 1990s when the Clinton Administration
relaxed sanctions on North Korea, the same person who negotiated that
one is doing it again, now, Wendy Sherman ... This is a call to action.
Israel will strike Iran if the U.S. is not doing the job, the job we should be
doing to prevent Iran going nuclear. The chorus of condemnation will be
deafening. I cannot think of a greater national security service Israel
could provide the United States than taking out Irans nuclear
weapons ... Secretary Kerrys apartheid state remarks were a grotesque
and false slander. Shortly after he made those remarks, I demanded
that he resign his position. Im proud to say that, shortly after, Mort
Klein emphatically repeated that demand. Secretary Kerrys remark
wasnt a momentary slip of the tongue, it was reflective of an utterly
unacceptable attitude towards Israel. Those words will be repeated by
Iran, by Hamas, by Hizballah, who will say, Dont believe us, believe the
U.S. Secretary of State ... Im proud to be working with our friends in
the ZOA.

Mort Klein introduced Senator Rand Paul (RKY), a potential presidential candidate,
saying that he was mystified that other Jewish organizations hadnt supported Senator
Pauls legislation to defund the PA until and unless it takes required steps to end terror
and incitement and accept Israel as a Jewish state. Mort added, When we discussed
horrific actions of the PA in a meeting some months ago, Senator Paul said that We
cant let this continue.

Senator Paul said that he is a friend of Israel and that It is important to
have ZOA because ZOA is right on some things AIPAC is not right on. A
lot of Americans dont know that we give money to the PA. If we are to
continue to do so, we must have strict rules. Now you have Fatah
coming together with Hamas. If they come together and Hamas still has
as its credo the destruction of Israel, how can that be the beginning of a
peace process? So its really one or the other ... if Hamas wants to lay
down arms, respect the rights of Israel as a Jewish state, thats one
thing but if they dont, I cant see America giving them any money, not a
penny ... Im convinced if I was allowed to speak to the AIPAC
membership, many would agree with me. Many of them have expressed
surprise ... Our alliance is incredibly important and ZOAs input is
invaluable.

Senator James E. Jim Risch (R-ID), said that, In my judgment, there is very little
doubt that the Geneva deal with Iran is a very bad deal. I hope Im dead wrong, that I
come back before you next year and people will tell me that I was wrong. But I dont
think thats going to happen.

Representative Ed Royce (R-CA), Chairman of the House Foreign Relations Committee,
said our Number One focus must be on ensuring that Iran does not obtain nuclear
weapons ... According to Tehran, we are the Great Satan. We should listen to the words
spoken by the Ayatollahs ... I had the opportunity in 2006, as Hizballah missiles were
slamming into Haifa to see media bias at work. I asked a BBC reporter to come to the
hospital I was visiting which had many of those Israelis wounded in the Hizballah
attacks. He replied that he couldnt as his editor would not allow him to tell that story.
Israel struggles every week with that lack of balance, with that bias ... I heard Abbas on
Iranian- owned radio in which he used incitement against Israel. I confronted him with
this when I met him, calling him Dr. Abbas because, as I said to him, I know you became
a doctor because you have a doctorate in Holocaust denial. I confronted him with
photographs I had of Dachau when it was liberated. Abbas wanted to change the topic,
saying that none of that justifies what is happening today ... when someone says that
they want to exterminate 6 million Jews, maybe there was an excuse in the 1930s for
not believing it but there is no excuse today. And we have the Iranians saying they will
not restrict in any way their ICBM program. We must send them the message:
compromise on the nuclear program, or witness the collapse of your regime.

Representative Michele Bachmann (RMN), whom ZOA National President Morton A.
Klein introduced as the queen Esther and Margaret Thatcher of our time, urged ZOA
activists never to forget, the U.S. must be the great defender of Israel and have Israels
back at every turn. Thats the promise; thats not always the reality of what were
getting ... Im nervous that last week in Vienna, the P5+1 [the five permanent members
of the UN Security Council, Britain, China, France, Russia and the United States, plus
Germany] looked like granting to Iran, in my opinion, the ability to continue unimpeded
towards nuclear weapons. This is a decision that is madness ... What was most effective
with Iran was pain, pain in the form of crippling economic sanctions, which were having
an effect. When youre succeeding with your enemies, why choose failure? We need
even more crippling now, go back to shackling Iran economically so that they get it that
the nuclear program has to stop. I would go further and take military action against Iran
... The Boycott, Sanctions and Divestment [BDS] movement has been gaining steam. We
in the US need to put out our message by taking a page from 1973 when we boycotted
the boycotters. We are launching our legislation to boycott the boycotters ... To
continue to fund the Palestinian Authority would be madness. One of Israels great
defenders, Trent Franks, and I are working on this ... If Iran refuse to be serious about
this, which they have demonstrated, we take unilateral military action, ask no-one and
get the job done.

Representative Bill Johnson (ROH) spoke of his life-changing trip to Israel in 2001
which gave him a unique perspective on why the link between Israel and the United
States is so inextricably intertwined ... Israel is the only nation on the planet formed, not
through conquest, but because G-d said that you will be the nation of Israel. You are the
only nation in human history ever formed that way ... It has inspired me to work even
harder that the American people understand how important it is for the U.S. to honestly
and practically support Israel ... If you look at our root of existence, the principles upon
which our nation was founded, one nation under G-d, endowed by our Creator with our
inalienable rights ... Some call for a 2 state solution Im not one of those ... We must
stop Iran. It doesnt need a nuclear program for civilian use and this has to stop. Iran
does not need centrifuges.

Representative Ted Poe (R-TX) said, The idea that we are going to talk sweetly to the
Iranians and that they will just change their minds isnt going to happen ... The Geneva
deal worked out by Secretary Kerry is the worst deal of the century. Sanctions were
actually working and producing economic instability in Iran and now weve eased them.
Were living in never-never land if we think they are going to negotiate sincerely with us
.. I dont like it that much that we give aid to the P.A. We send them money in good faith
and terrorists kills Israelis and Americans, and then the PA pays the terrorists who did
the killing. That is crazy. Why would we find an organization that pays terrorists who kill
Americans and our allies? That has got to end ... The PA are a bunch of snake oil
salesmen ... We stand shoulder to shoulder with Israel.

Representative Brad Sherman (DCA) opened by quipping that he is not related to
anyone with the name Wendy a reference to Wendy Sherman, the U.S. negotiator
who gave North Korean and is now giving Iran favorable terms that enable their
respective dangerous and illegal nuclear weapons activities. He said, Ive been fighting
for the toughest sanctions on Iran since entering Congress ... The Iranians are not only in
violation but are not planning to stop their nuclear activities. You need to bring this
news to [House Minority leader] Nancy Pelosi ... If we dont stop Iran going nuclear, how
do you then say to Brazil, Saudi Arabia, Egypt and Turkey that they cant have nuclear
weapons?

Representative Trent Franks (RAZ) said, I am finally seeing truly committed warriors
for Israel in Congress ... Mahmoud Abbas and the Palestinian Authority have completely
eschewed peace with Israel. Abbas has openly aligned himself with Hamas, an
organization committed to murdering women and little children simply because theyre
Jews. Abbas recently told the U.S. President that he will not accept the two-state
solution. He also told the President that he will not accept a deal that does not require
more land from Israel ... Israel has faced many enemies for over thousands of years. All
of those enemies of Israel are now all gone. Tomorrow jihad will be gone and Israel will
remain.

Representative Steve King (RIA) recounted that, following his election to Congress in
2002, he participated in a meeting with the ambassadors of Britain, France and
Germany regarding Irans nuclear weapons program. The ambassadors wanted
America to have a dialogue with Iran and talk them out of getting nuclear weapons. I
asked them, Well, are you ready for sanctions, for a UN Security Council resolution?
And if Iran crosses that line, what are your countries willing to put on the line?... The
Geneva deal is the worst deal we could have had, its dangerous for Israel and its
dangerous for the world ... As I told the ambassadors back then, I would put a date on
the calendar and tell the Iranian president that I know that date by which I take military
action against you if you havent dismantled your nuclear program, but you dont. Ill let
you save face and find a way to back down, but you will not be allowed to obtain
nuclear weapons ... We must stand with Israel. Ill stand with you as long as it takes.

Representative Scott Perry (RPA) said, For 66 years, America and Israel have been
together through all sorts of crises. I think we have to understand and acknowledge
what is happening now with Iran. Were dealing with the greatest security threat our
two countries have ever faced ... The PA isnt making peace with Israel. It doesnt accept
Israel. I dont understand my Jewish friends who want to support people who want to
cut their throats. I get irritated when I hear the phrase occupied territories. You
answered aggression. Whatever happened to the principle, to the victor the spoils? ...
Secretary Kerry recently used the word apartheid in relation to what could happen to
Israel. What planet is he living on? ... The Administration needs to be clear about our
adversaries in the Middle East, but theyre not. We have folks here who want to align
ourselves with the Muslim Brotherhood. If the Arab states laid down their arms, theyd
be peace. If Israel laid down its arms, thered be no Israel.

Representative Jerry Nadler (DNY) said, Its a great pleasure to be here with friends
like the ZOA. I was once in a ZOA college chapter ... In those days, we faced the problem
of NGOs, funded by philanthropic foundations, who were lending their support to anti-
Israel groups. We worked and got then to change their ground rules at the Ford
Foundation so that they read, This organization will not support efforts to destroy or
delegitimize any state. This significantly reduced funding for anti-Israel NGOs ...
Palestinians could have had a state in 1947, 1948, and 2008. They could have it now. But
theyre too willing to forgo the right of return of so-called refugees into Israel proper.
Theres no precedent for what they demand. Germans were expelled after World War
Two from Hungary, Czechoslovakia and other places in Eastern Europe, 12 million of
them. Millions of refugees swapped countries when India was split into India and
Pakistan. And the hundreds of thousands of Jews from Arab lands were absorbed by
Israel. The Palestinians alone have a special status, are kept as refugees and are not
subject to the authority of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees. This is the only case
where you have third generation refugees. In any case, the Palestinian Authority will not
sign an end of claims agreement ... On the Iranian nuclear weapons program, there can
be no compromise and no accommodation. Will an agreement in July bring about the
end of the nuclear program? If not, we must take all options to stop it.

Representative Ron DeSantis (RFL) said, In Nigeria, the Islamist group, Boko Haram,
kidnapped 30 women from a Christian school. I confronted the State Department on
this. They tried to sanitize it. I made the case that you need to look at the enemy and
call them by their name .. The idea that Israel should divide Jerusalem is to me simply
unacceptable. The PA is a repressive regime without proper rights and filled with
terrorists. Why would you want to expand that repression to any part of Jerusalem? ..
People say that the Jews in Judea/Samaria are obstacles to peace. But those
communities provide a buffer against terror and jihad ... Channelling hundreds of
millions of dollars to the PA is not in our national interest ... Israel is part of whats right
about the Middle East.

Representative Robert B. Aderholt (RAL) said, I was in Israel last year. It was eye-
opening to see the energy and determination of that country ... I like to tell people that I
worship a Jew ... Peace has to be the ultimate goal, but there are many struggles, so
many forces that are opposed to peace and we have to take account of this. The
Palestinians may say to us that they really want peace, but hey really dont.

Representative Alan Grayson (DFL) said, I am the first Jewish Congressman from
central Florida... I might be the only Jew in the district .. The Iranian nuclear threat is
deadly serious. Why am I so adamant on the need to stop the Iranian nuclear program?
Because I can easily imagine a scenario in which Iran obtains nuclear weapons, in which
it then gives nuclear weapons to Hizballah, which puts them in boats and sends them on
to Haifa. This is a truly frightening but believable prospect if Tehran gets the bomb. We
must stop it.

Senators and Congressmen who attended the ZOA luncheon but were compelled by
other commitments on the Hill from staying to speak included Senator Benjamin Cardin
(DMD), Representative Billy Long (RMO), Representative Tom Price (R-GA) and
Representative Mark Meadows (RNC).

Also addressing the Mission during the luncheon was David Wilder, the spokesman for
the Committee for the Jewish Community of Hebron. Mr. Wilder told the ZOA activists
of the daily struggles of pioneering communities in Hebron which are hemmed in on all
sides by hostile Palestinian Arabs. He pointed out that 97% of Hebron is actually off-limit
to Jews. He praised ZOA for being one of the very few Jewish organizations that makes
the rights and security of Jews living in Judea/Samaria an issue and a priority. Mr. Wilder
also presented Mort Klein with a Hebron Bible and a re-minted Hebron medallion,
saying, believe me you and ZOA deserve it youre doing unbelievable work. Thank
you.

Mort Klein thanked the entire ZOA staff for their hard work in making the ZOAs
Advocacy Mission to Washington, D.C. such a success. Mort offered special thanks to
Josh London and Dan Pollak, Co-Directors of the ZOAs Government Relations
Department, who were masters of ceremonies at the luncheon event and led the
discussion of issues, for all their work in helping to bring this impressive array of
Members of Congress to the luncheon. Thanks were also expressed to Executive
Director David Drimer, Howard Katzoff and the entire ZOA staff for their hard work in
making the Mission run so smoothly. Special recognition was afforded to Steve Feldman,
Executive Director of ZOA Philadelphia, for bringing the largest contingent of delegates
to the Mission. Mort Klein also thanked Dr. Daniel Mandel, Director of the ZOAs Center
for Middle East Policy, for his enormous help in making this comprehensive press
release possible.


EGYPT

Prior blast e-mails have provided limited updates regarding what has occurred during the Egyptian
version of the Arab Spring; to be included herein are data corroborating [in real time] the fact that
Egypt has overcome the Muslim Brotherhood despite the efforts of BHO. Remember that these cites are
not screened; they are preserved and then grouped by topic. Therefore, it is necessary to build upon the
thrust of their message regarding how very wrong-headed BHOs Foreign Policy CONTINUES TO BE, for
BHOs deceit knows no bounds and, thus, the fundamental Obama Doctrine [following from behind]
must be overturned ASAP. If any contrary conclusion can be derived from these data, I cant find it.

[Before skimming topical hyperlinks, ponder this oft-reprinted essay by Nonie Darwish,
who was born in Egypt as a Muslim and who frequently is a guest on FNC; some of her
prognostication may appear a bit extreme, but it reflects her experiential anguish.]

Joys of Muslim Women

In the Muslim faith, a Muslim man can marry a child as young as 1 year
old and have sexual intimacy with this childthereby consummating the
marriage by 9.

The dowry is given to the family in exchange for the woman (who
becomes his slave) and for the purchase of the private parts of the
woman, to use her as a toy.

Even though a woman is abused she cannot obtain a divorce.

To prove rape, the woman must have (4) male witnesses.

Often after a woman has been raped, she is returned to her family and
the family must return the dowry. The family has the right to execute
her (an honor killing) to restore the honor of the family. Husbands can
beat their wives 'at will' and he does not have to say why he has beaten
her.

The husband is permitted to have (4 wives) and a temporary wife for an
hour (prostitute) at his discretion.

The Sharia Muslim law controls the private as well as the public life of
the woman.

In the Western World (Canada , United States and Britain ) Muslim men
are starting to demand Sharia Law so the wife cannot obtain a divorce
and he can have full and complete control of her. It is amazing and
alarming how many of our sisters and daughters attending American,
Canadian, Universities and British Universities are now marrying Muslim
men and submitting themselves and their children unsuspectingly to the
Sharia law.

By passing this on, enlightened Canadian, American and British women
may avoid becoming a slave under Sharia Law.

Ripping the West in Two.

Author and lecturer Nonie Darwish says the goal of radical Islamists is to
impose Sharia law on the world, ripping Western law and liberty in two.

She recently authored the book, Cruel and Usual Punishment: The
Terrifying Global Implications of Islamic Law. Darwish was born in Cairo
and spent her childhood in Egypt and Gaza before immigrating to
America in 1978, when she was eight years old. Her father died while
leading covert attacks on Israel . He was a high-ranking Egyptian military
officer stationed with his family in Gaza .

When he died, he was considered a "shahid," a martyr for jihad. His
posthumous status earned Nonie and her family an elevated position in
Muslim society.

But Darwish developed a skeptical eye at an early age. She questioned
her own Muslim culture and upbringing. She converted to Christianity
after hearing a Christian preacher on television.

In her latest book, Darwish warns about creeping Sharia law - what it is,
what it means, and how it is manifested in Islamic countries.

For the West, she says radical Islamists are working to impose sharia on
the world. If that happens, Western civilization will be destroyed.
Westerners generally assume all religions encourage a respect for the
dignity of each individual. Islamic law (Sharia) teaches that non-Muslims
should be subjugated or killed in this world.

Peace and prosperity for one's children is not as important as assuring
that Islamic law rules everywhere in the Middle East and eventually in
the world.

While Westerners tend to think that all religions encourage some form
of the golden rule, Sharia teaches two systems of ethics - one for
Muslims and another for non-Muslims. Building on tribal practices of
the seventh century, Sharia encourages the side of humanity that wants
to take from and subjugate others.

While Westerners tend to think in terms of religious people developing
a personal understanding of and relationship with God, Sharia
advocates executing people who ask difficult questions that could be
interpreted as criticism.

It's hard to imagine, that in this day and age, Islamic scholars agree that
those who criticize Islam or choose to stop being Muslim should be
executed. Sadly, while talk of an Islamic reformation is common and
even assumed by many in the West, such murmurings in the Middle
East are silenced through intimidation.

While Westerners are accustomed to an increase in religious tolerance
over time, Darwish explains how petro dollars are being used to grow an
extremely intolerant form of political Islam in her native Egypt and
elsewhere.

(In twenty years there will be enough Muslim voters in Canada, the U.S.
and Britain to elect the President by themselves! Rest assured they will
do so... You can look at how they have taken over several towns in the
USA .. Dearborn Mich. Is one... And there are others....) ( Britain has
several cities now totally controlled by Muslims)

I think everyone in Canada, the U.S. And Great Britain Should be
required to read this, but with the ACLU, there is no way this will be
widely publicized, unless each of us sends it on!

It is too bad that so many are disillusioned with life and Christianity to
accept Muslims as peaceful. Some may be but they have an army that is
willing to shed blood in the name of Islam.. The peaceful support the
warriors with their finances and own kind of patriotism to their religion.
While Canada, the

U.S.A.and Britain are getting rid of Christianity from all public sites and
erasing God from the lives of children the Muslims are planning a great
jihad on North America and Britain.

On Wednesday [25 Dec.], Egypts interim government declared the
Muslim Brotherhood movement of ousted president Mohamed Morsi as
a terrorist group, banning all its activities, including demonstrations,
Agency France-Presse reported.

The announcement came following an explosion at a police
headquarters in Mansoura Tuesday [24 Dec.] morning, where at least 15
people were killed and
130 injured.

The Jordanian Brotherhood harshly criticised the Egyptian authorities
for the decision, noting that it is Egyptian people who decides that
and not their military-installed government.

This decision is rejected in form and substance, Hamzah Mansour, the
IAF secretary general, told The Jordan Times.

He added that to us the Egyptian government that issued this decision
is illegitimate, thus it is null and void.

Such a decision requires a judicial ruling, Mansour noted, adding that
this will not affect the movements popularity, neither in Egypt nor in
Jordan.

The issue was also tackled by prominent columnists who denounced
the decision.

Tareq Masarweh of Al Rai said: It is a mistake, not only against the
Brotherhood, but against Egypt It is not possible to have more than
one million terrorists [there], and if this was true, it means that Egypt is
committing suicide.

He added that our information indicates that the number of the
movements members who are in prisons does not exceed 2,500, asking
why the rest of the million terrorists are not in prison.

Al Ghad columnist Mohammad Abu Rumman also denounced the
decision that was issued within few hours after the bombing in
Mansoura.

Abu Rumman, who is an expert on the Muslim Brotherhood issue, noted
that political Islam will not disappear because of a decision taken by a
government or a court. It is a complicated situation, the writer said.

He added that although the Muslim Brotherhood denounced the
bombing attack in Mansoura, this did not halt the implementation of
the previously prepared agenda of the military institution.

Abu Rumman claimed that a media defamation campaign is being
waged not only against the group in the Arab world, but also against the
government of Turkey.

These views were also echoed by Ad Dustours columnist Oraib Rantawi,
who noted that behind the scenes, the word goes that there is a
regional campaign against the Muslim Brotherhood and what is
taking place in Egypt will be copied in other countries including Jordan
and Palestine.

However, according to the writer in Jordan there will be no national
unity without having the Brotherhood as an active participant in the
political process.


Overview and Analysis

We have a peace agreement with Egypt that could fall at any time; we have a peace agreement with
Jordan that will last until Husseins Arab brothers call him to war. And we have nothing with the
Palestinians as we have had nothing for all of the 65 years since our re-establishment.

George Washington University professor, who had spent years urging engagement with Hamas and
