JERUSALEM (AP) - In a case that would seem unthinkable in the Jewish state, police said Sunday they have cracked a cell of young Israeli neo-Nazis accused in a string of attacks on foreign workers, religious Jews, drug addicts and gays.I don't think this makes clear, but none of the gang members were Jewish, let alone citizens:
Eight immigrants from the former Soviet Union have been arrested in recent days in connection with at least 15 attacks, and a ninth fled the country, police spokesman Micky Rosenfeld said, in the first such known cell to be discovered in Israel.
All the suspects are in their late teens or early 20s and have Israeli citizenship, Rosenfeld said. A court decided Sunday to keep them in custody.
"The level of violence was outrageous," Maj. Revital Almog, who investigated the case, told Israel's Army Radio.
(IsraelNN.com) Israeli Police have busted a group of Israeli neo-Nazis in the Tel Aviv region and found a gun and explosives. The youths are non-Jewish immigrants from the Former Soviet Union.Proof that the problem with neo-nazism is still alive. But it's disgraceful if the AP isn't making clear what the background of the thugs is, even though it's true that people of Jewish backgrounds could stoop this low if they're crazy enough.
Although the nine arrests were made a month ago, a gag order on the case was in place until Saturday night. Police had been investigating over 20 people involved with the group ever since the vandalizing of a large synagogue in Petach Tikvah over a year ago. The neo-Nazis had painted the walls, as well as the insides of prayer books, with Nazi graffiti.
The teenagers are from Holon, Petach Tikvah and even the Samaria town of Karnei Shomron. They reportedly have ties with neo-Nazi groups overseas via the Internet and some boast Nazi tattoos.
The sickest thing about this is that the BBC must've been having a field day with their gloating propaganda:
Ms Almog said of the accused, "their connection to Judaism is distant, through grandparents or distant family connections".They must've really enjoyed putting words in her mouth! Frankly, I don't buy it for a second.
These repugnant youths should now rot in an islolated cell in prison for as long as possible before being deported back to the gutter that spawned them in the former USSR.
I think it is funny how the media and government is acting like this is some utterly unique singular event. Remember a few years ago when the "White Israeli Union" neo-Nazi group had its website taken down? With all the video of the neo-Nazis - giving the Hitler salute in their full IDF uniforms - talking about how to kill the Arabs for practice and how not to act like a "zhid" (Jew, in Russian)? Or then there were the skinhead gangs stormtrooping through Tel Aviv a few years ago too. Anyone who follows the "The Israeli Information and Assistance Center for the Victims of Anti-Semitism" ( http://pogrom.org.il/ ) which monitors neo-Nazis in Israel regularly knows this most recent event isn't particularly unique. The problem is that the government and police "turn a blind eye" to Israeli neo-Nazis which gives them freedom to expand. Rest assured this cell isn't all of them.
ReplyDeleteHere we have another aspect of Israel's demographic crisis. In the rush to import olim whose only real criteria is they are not Arab or Muslim it can't come as any surprise that that managed to import traditional Russian anti-Semites too. Most of these kids are Russians who were brought to Israel by their parents against their will, they don't want to be Israeli and never did. HOWEVER, in the end, if Israel had not imported the million plus Russians - many, or even most, of them non-Jewish - then the non-Arab population between the river and the sea would already be a definite minority to the Arab population. There just aren't enough legitimate Jews to maintain the current "Greater Israel," thus the floods of non-Jewish olim, the mass conversions of Ethiopians, Indians, and Peruvian Indians, and so on. These measures - the desperation for any non-Arab/Muslim immigrants - undermines the "Jewish character" of Israel just as surely as any compromise with the native Palestinians would.
THE PREVIOUS COMMENT COMES FROM AN ANTI-ZIONIST GROUP WHICH WANTS ISRAEL DESTROYED BY DEMOGRAPHICS.
ReplyDeleteIT IS FUNDAMENTALLY ANTI-SEMITIC.
THER ARE COUNTLESS CHIRSTIAN AND MUSLIM STATES IN THE WORLD.
STATES WHICH HAVE AN OFFICIAL RELIGION.
SO... WHY CAN'T THE JEWS HAVE ONE!?
THERE ARE COUNTLESS STATES WHOSE PRESENT BORDERS ARE THE RESULT OF WAR - SPECIFICALLY OF WINNING WARS.
WHY CAN'T THE JEWS HAVE BORDERS BASED ON THEIR VICTORIES?
JORDAN IS A PHONY STATE WITH A FAKE MONARCH - WITH BORDERS CARVED OUT OF LAND WON IN WAR.
THIS WAS DONE BY THE BRITISH.
JORDAN COMPRISES 80% OF WHAT WAS PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS PALESTINE.
IF ARABS REALLY WANT A NATION CALLED PALESTINE, THEN THEY SHOULD RENAME JORDAN.
BTW: UNTIL 1948, ONLY JEWS LIVING IN WHAT WAS THEN CALLED PALESTINE CALLED THEMSELVES PALESTINIANS.
THE ARABS LIVING THERE CALLED THEMSELVES ARABS. THEY WERE NOT PALESTINIANS; THEY WERE PART OF THE UMMAH.A PAN-ARAB ID; NOT PALESTINIAN.
THERE IS NO PALESTINIANS LANGUAGE OR CULTURE DISTINCT FROM ARABS LANGUAGE AND CULTURE.
THE IDENTITY OF PALESTINIAN FOR ARABS IS A SHAM.
JUST LIKE THE IDENTITY OF THE AL AKSA MOSQUE.
THAT'S RIGHT: THE MOSQUE ON THE TEMPLE MOUNT IS NOT THE AL AKSA MOSQUE. IT WAS BUILT LONG AFTER MOHAMMED WAS DEAD. AND WHEN PALESTINE WAS UNDER TURKISH/MUSLIM RULE THE TEMPLE MOUNT'S MOSQUE WAS VIRTUALLY ABANDONED.
WHEN JEWS ARE HELD TO DIFFERENT STANDARDS AS ALL OTHER PEOPLES IT IS ONLY ONE THING:
ANTI-SEMITISM.
THE PRECIOUS COMMENTER AND HIS ORGANIZATION ARE ANTI-SEMITIC SCUM.
THE PLO WAS NOT FORMED TO HAVE NATIONHOOD IN THE SO-CALLED "OCCUPIED TERRITORIES."
THE PLO WAS FORMED YEARS BEFORE THE 1967 WAR!
THE PLO, FATAH, HAMAS AND THIS COMMENTERS GROUP ALL WANT PONE THING: THE END OF THE STATE OF ISRAEL.
IF NOT BY TERROR THEN BY D DEMOGRAPHICS.
THEY ARE EVIL SCUM.
You're right, the comment they posted is sick and ghastly. I can't believe people like that are allowed access to a computer.
