ZIONISTS DO EVERYTHING “BY WAY OF DECEPTION” INCLUDING ORCHESTRATING “CEASEFIRE”
ZIONISTS DO EVERYTHING “BY WAY OF DECEPTION” INCLUDING ORCHESTRATING “CEASEFIRE” IN ONE OF THEIR EFFORTS TO DECEIVE PALESTINIANS AND THE WORLD!

The Zionists always do everything “by way of deception” including orchestrating a ceasefire in Gaza with the help of Egypt’s El-Sisi regime in one of its efforts to deceive Palestinians and the world that Israel will end the aggression against Gaza, but in reality this Zionist entity is launching major ground attacks against the poorly defended Palestinians in the blockaded Gaza. In the Gaza aggression, the Zionist forces apply this Mossad Motto of “By Way of Deception.”
But this orchestrated truce was out rightly rejected by Hamas. Hamas spokesman Fawzi Barhoum said in response to the Egyptian ceasefire proposal that his movement would not accept any truce that excludes the conditions set by the Palestinian groups and people. Fawzi Barhoum stated that the ceasefire will not be agreed if Israel doesn’t meet Palestinian demands.
Ismail Haniyeh, former of Palestinian Prime Minister on Al-Aqsa TV stated that Israel started the war by targeting civilians, especially women and children. “We would like to emphasize that we never start a fight but they (the Israelis) who have started and announced it, then started killing children, women and slaughtering families,” said Haniya.
The motto of Israel’s spy agency, Mossad, is, according to recently defected Mossad agent Victor Ostrovsky: “By way of deception thou shalt do war.” That motto describes more than the modus operandi of the world’s most ruthless and feared organization of professional assassins and espionage agents; it really describes the modus vivendi of an entire race. It is necessary to understand that fact before one can hope to understand fully the role of the Jews in national and world affairs.
The concept of a race eternally at war with the rest of the world is alien to us. It is difficult to believe or even to grasp. When we examine such a concept and begin sifting the evidence it is easy to become confused. On the one hand we have the Old Testament injunctions to the Hebrews from their tribal god, speaking through their prophets, to annihilate every Gentile nation over which they gain power: “And thou shalt consume all the peoples which the Lord thy God shall deliver unto thee; thine eye shall not pity them…thou shalt save alive nothing that breatheth.” (Deuteronomy 7:16, 20:16)
The Mossad (Hebrew: הַמוֹסָד, IPA: [ha moˈsad]; Arabic: الموساد, al-Mōsād; literally meaning “the Institute”), short for HaMossad leModiʿin uleTafkidim Meyuḥadim (Hebrew: המוסד למודיעין ולתפקידים מיוחדים, meaning “Institute for Intelligence and Special Operations”; Arabic: الموساد للاستخبارات والمهام الخاصة al-Mōsād lil-Istikhbārāt wal-Mahāmm al-Khāṣṣah), is the national intelligence agency of Israel.
Mossad’s former motto, be-tachbūlōt ta`aseh lekhā milchāmāh (Hebrew: בתחבולות תעשה לך מלחמה) is a quote from the Bible (Proverbs 24:6): “For by wise guidance you can wage your war” (NRSV). The motto was later changed to another Proverbs passage: be-‘éyn tachbūlōt yippol `ām; ū-teshū`āh be-rov yō’éts (Hebrew: באין תחבולות יפול עם, ותשועה ברוב יועץ, Proverbs 11:14). This is translated by NRSV as: “Where there is no guidance, a nation falls, but in an abundance of counselors there is safety.”
It is one of the main entities in the Israeli Intelligence Community, along with Aman (military intelligence) and Shin Bet (internal security). The Mossad is responsible for intelligence collection, covert operations, and counterterrorism, as well as bringing Jews to Israel from countries where official Aliyah agencies are forbidden, and protecting Jewish communities. Its director reports directly to the Prime Minister.
“The cynical ‘ceasefire’ chorus being sung by Israel and Egypt
Julie Webb-Pullman in her article titled “Why the Egyptian-Israel truce proposal falls on deaf ears” published in Middle East Monitor (MEMO) Wednesday, 16 July 2014, wrote “The cynical ‘ceasefire’ chorus being sung by Israel and Egypt is merely yet another movement in the well-orchestrated Israeli-Egyptian three-penny opera.” The way in which the ‘negotiations’ were carried out was more farce than finale – Egypt wrote the libretto for the Israeli impresario, leaving the Palestinians in the wings.
The terms themselves are a three-act charade. The Israeli-Egyptian duet omits any mention of the release of more than 50 Palestinian prisoners released in the 2011 Shalit swap who were re-detained during the recent West Bank ‘search’ for three missing Israeli settlers, a core Hamas demand.
Nor does it commit to either re-open the Rafah Crossing between Gaza and Egypt, or to lift the crippling – and illegal – Israeli siege of Gaza, merely saying that “crossings shall be opened and the movement of persons and goods through (them) shall be facilitated once the security situation becomes stable on the ground.” Both of these are core demands of the entire Palestinian resistance – Hamas, Islamic Jihad, PFLP and everyone in between.
Any ceasefire that does not change the fundamental paradigm, a hermetically-sealed Gaza and a ‘normal Israel,’ will garner only encore after encore, as every previous performance has done. Within three months of the 2012 ceasefire agreement, for instance, Israel had breached it 820 times. The Palestinian Centre for Human Rights reported that just two mortar shells were fired from Gaza in the same period, causing little or no damage in Israel, and no Gazan rockets were fired. Not one. With odds of 820 – 2, it is no surprise that the Palestinians are wary of being house-managed towards another tragedy – although that may well be the subtext for the entire production.
“By Way of Deception” Netanyahu justifies further aggression
Benjamin Netanyahu used the Palestinian rejection of the proposal to justify further aggression, saying at a press conference, “If Hamas continues to fire at Israel, Israel will have the international legitimacy to take action.” International legitimacy is exactly what the repertoire demands – but it is not to be found through recourse to the Israeli arsenal.
Both parties can gain security through legitimacy – but this would of course require that Israel observe and comply with international law. Palestinians have the same rights to security and self-determination within international law as do Israelis. Palestinians also have the right in international law to resist occupation. The UN documents archive contains hundreds of clear resolutions as to what is required of Israel and of Palestine. What is missing is the implementation of the vast majority of them.
As the multitude of Israeli breaches of UN resolutions and instruments demonstrate, Israel is a rogue state, not acting in good faith. This requires the international community to enter stage left, to enforce Israeli compliance with international norms, and to protect Palestinian rights, particularly from Israeli aggression.
The ‘legitimacy’ prompt would require Israelis to withdraw from all occupied territories, in accordance with UN Security Council Resolution 242. United Nations Peace Keepers could be deployed to guarantee the security of Palestinians and Israelis alike, if the international community is serious about its commitment to both a lasting ceasefire, and equal enjoyment of rights and security.
Israelis must also sing from the same song-sheet as the rest of the world, and act in accordance with all of the UN covenants, conventions, treaties and other instruments to which it is signatory. A direct result of this would be the immediate lifting of the siege of Gaza, which has been determined to constitute collective punishment, thus a breach of the fourth Geneva Convention.
The fundamental problem with the Egyptian libretto is that it does not address the root cause of the conflict – Israeli abuses of international law.
No proposal that perpetuates illegitimacy, however long and loudly sung, can drown out the pure, simple and sustained note of justice denied.
Israel ground invasion of Gaza kills more Palestinians
Israeli troops backed by tanks and warplanes have pushed deeper into the besieged Gaza Strip, killing more Palestinians. Thousands of Israeli soldiers launched a ground invasion of Gaza on Thursday, July 17, 2014, after days of air and sea-based strikes against Gaza. Israeli tanks have pounded different parts of the blockaded sliver on the 11th day of Tel Aviv’s aggression. Four family members were killed in Khan Yunis in southern Gaza, with another two murdered in the northern town Beit Hanoun, said emergency services spokesman Ashraf al-Qudra on Friday, July 18, 2014.
Three men lost their lives in tank shelling east of Khan Yunis while another was killed in Shejaiyeh, east of Gaza City. Al-Qudra added that five people were killed by Israeli fire in separate assaults on the southern city of Rafah, including a five-month-old baby. In northern Gaza, two men were killed in tank shelling in Beit Hanun. The spokesman added that, with the deaths of two men from another family in Khan Yunis, the Palestinian death toll in Gaza has reached 260.
Palestinian health officials say 14 children under the age of 12 have been killed over the past two days in the Gaza Strip. Meanwhile, Israel announced its first casualty since the start of the ground operation in Gaza as a soldier was killed in the northern part of the sliver. According to the Israeli military, Israel had called up 48,000 reserve soldiers and, later on Thursday, its cabinet authorized the military to call up 18,000 more.
The development came as Hamas chief Khaled Meshaal said on Friday that the Israeli ground operation was bound to fail. Israel began its latest onslaught against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip on July 8. About a third of the Palestinian fatalities are women and children. (T/E01/IR)
