....."It is
strange that our president, a man so versed in history and so committed to the
truth, should have omitted mentioning the Jews of Egypt. He either forgot, or
just didn’t know, or just thought it wasn’t expedient or appropriate for this
venue. But for him to speak in Cairo of a shared effort “to find common ground
... and to respect the dignity of all human beings” without mentioning people in
my position would be like his speaking to the residents of Berlin about the
future of Germany and forgetting to mention a small detail called World War II. "Andre

Who
could imagine that someone who advocates burning books might
lead the international organization that protects the
heritage of global civilization?
Yet
those are the shameful views of Farouk Hosni, the man Egypt
wants to lead UNESCO.
His
outrageous statement, "I'd burn Israeli books myself if
I found any in libraries in Egypt," is one of many
similar comments he has made over the years.
UNESCO was
created to uplift, ennoble and unite mankind. Clearly, a man
who calls for one of the most shocking crimes against
culture and civilization should never be its leader.

"It is thus working against, and even sabotaging, other Jewish and non-Jewish
NGOs that are more serious about combating anti-Semitism and
supporting Israel. In short, AJC is practicing appeasement toward the European
governments and elites. That establishment, for its part, appreciates AJC giving
them the kosher stamp of approval. AJC is thus working against Jewish interests
in Europe."
"....a body totally controlled by the Islamic Conference and rogue states,
and even chaired by Libya, with Iran and Cuba serving as deputy chairs, could
possibly be anything other than an instrument for promoting evil."
Israel
must state that no peace agreement would
be implemented without solving the
problem of the Jews from Middle Eastern
states, with an emphasis on restituting
their property, which is estimated at
hundreds of millions of dollars,"
