- The launch of
this diplomatic attempt to gut Israel will start on January 15, in
Paris, at a "peace conference" -- which should immediately
be postponed a week.
- "Led astray
from their primary mission, these organizations [such as the United
Nations] have become tools of corruption or terrorism, reinforcing
global Islamic power... Their latest resolutions do not only confirm
the victory of jihadism and illiteracy: they also express the success
of the years of effort made by this post-war Europe that continues to
destroy, defame and delegitimize the Jewish State in the name of
Islamic justice." — Bat Ye'or, prizewinning historian.
- With a UN now run
as if it is the universal caliphate, assisted mostly by dictators and
despots, it is hard to see much good ever coming from it. No one has
yet been made accountable for the $100 billion "oil for
food" scandal, and peacekeepers still dole out food to children
in exchange for sex.
- "The
beginning of this long journey dates back to 1967, in France... Europe
rushed to adopt the French position in 1973 and, along with the OIC,
planned political measures designed to destroy the Jewish State by denying
its sovereign rights and its cantonment on an indefensible territory.
Resolution 2334 is now the icing on the cake of this policy, which
forms the basis for a Euro-Islamic policy..." — Bat Ye'or.
- All freedom
loving nations would be wise to abandon the UN, or, second-best,
defund it. Sadly, that is the only language the UN seems to
understand. Countries imagining that in Donald Trump they have another
pushover, watch out. You will be in for quite a shock.

Israel, this tiny country in the heart of Middle East, has become the
new target of diplomacy-abuse at the United Nations, headed by the
Americans, the Europeans (mainly France) and the Organization of Islamic
Cooperation (OIC) -- 57 Islamic states plus "Palestine", which at
the moment forms the largest bloc at the UN.
On December 23, 2016, the UN Security Council passed Resolution 2334,
which effectively sets the boundaries for the Palestinian state at the 1949
armistice lines. The Arabs had previously refused to accept the armistice
line as a border, presumably because agreeing to it might preclude the
Palestinians from trying to get the rest of "Palestine", defined
by them as "from the river [Jordan] to the sea [Mediterranean]"
-- meaning all of Israel. Just look at any Palestinian map -- It is
identical to the shape of the entirety of Israel.

- "En Sha'a
Allah [God willing], there will be no such thing as a Zionist regime
in 25 years. Until then, struggling, heroic and jihadi morale will
leave no moment of serenity for Zionists." — Iran's Supreme
Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, September, 2015.
- "If the
Supreme Leader's orders [are] to be executed, with the abilities and
the equipment at our disposal, we will raze the Zionist regime in less
than eight minutes." — Ahmad Karimpour, a senior adviser to the
Iranian Revolutionary Guards' elite unit, the Quds Force.
- Iran is also
attempting to intimidate Donald Trump from taking a tough stance
against Iran. Trump ought to be wary of falling into Iran's tactical
game of fear-mongering. For Iran, US concessions and silence in the
face of Iran's threats mean weakness and fear. On the other hand, when
Iran sees that the US is taking a robust stance and that the military
option is always on the table, Tehran retreats.
- As long as Iran's
Supreme Leader is alive and as long as the ruling clerics preserve the
political establishment, Iran will maintain the core pillars of its
foreign policies and revolutionary principles: these are anchored in
anti-Israeli, anti-American and anti-Semitic politics. Iranian
politicians across the political spectrum totally agree on these
fundamentals.
Iran's threats against Israel and the US are becoming bolder and
louder. Iran's Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, is now repeatedly
threatening Israel's annihilation relatively soon.
According to Iran's Press TV, Khamenei recently stated:
"The Zionist regime -- as we have already said -- will cease to
exist in the next 25 years if there is a collective and united struggle by
the Palestinians and the Muslims against the Zionists."
In addition, Iranian officials are warning President-elect Donald
Trump that if he makes any wrong move, it would lead to a World War, wiping
Israel from the face of earth and destroying the smaller Gulf states.
Iranian leaders are adopting their classic tactics and strategy of
threatening in advance -- and frequently -- probably to obtain concessions,
push the next US administration to pursue policies of appeasement, and,
more importantly, to drive the US to abandon Israel.
