Sarah, Abraham’s wife, had produced no children. But she had an Egyptian slave child named Hagar; so she said to Abraham, "Go, sleep with my slave."
Why do so many Moslems appear backward; and why is the Moslem world falling apart?

During the 1980s there were new discoveries in archaeology.
The story of the 13th century BC exodus from Egypt into the PROMISED LAND was shown to be a myth.
Moses could not have led the Hebrews out of Egypt into the Promised Land, because the Promised land was Egyptian territory at the time.
The archaeologists say there is no trace of either a slave revolt against the Egyptian empire or of a sudden conquest of Canaan by outsiders.
Nor is there any trace or memory of the Biblical kingdom of David and Solomon.
According to a Report by The Church of Scotland:

"Biblical promises about the land of Israel were never intended to be taken literally, or as applying to a defined geographical territory, the report argued...

At this meeting, it was agreed that the report would be withdrawn and revised

The revised version was debated at the Church of Scotland's annual General Assembly in Edinburgh.
Rev Sally Foster-Fulton said: "This is primarily a report highlighting the continued occupation by the state of Israel and the injustices faced by the Palestinian people as a consequence.
"It is not a report criticising the Jewish people. Opposing the unjust policies of the state of Israel cannot be equated to anti-Semitism. "
The revised report was overwhelmingly accepted by the Assembly.

The Palestinians are most likely the original Jews.
'Most of the Jews in Israel are not the original Jews of the Bible, but people who converted to the Jewish religion.
'Most of the Jews in Israel are descended from people in countries such as Germany, Georgia, Ukraine, Yemen, and Morocco who were not originally Jewish.'
The Palestinians are most likely the original Jews.
Schlomo Sand, professor of history at Tel Aviv university, wrote about the Zionist myth at Le Monde Diplomatique, in September 2008.
Palestinians - who probably converted from the Jewish religion to Islam.
Among the points made by Professor Sand:1. In 70 AD, the Jews were allegedly exiled and went to live in countries such as Yemen, Morocco, Spain, Germany, Poland and Russia.
2. At the end of the 19th century, people claiming to be Jews began to talk about setting up a Jewish state.

Many of the Nazi leaders were part Jewish.
5. The Kingdom of Israel was a tiny little place.
6. Were the Jews exiled in 70 AD?
The Romans never exiled any nation from anywhere on the eastern seaboard of the Mediterranean.
The Jewish population of Judea continued to live on their lands after 70AD.
Some converted to Christianity in the 4th century, while the majority became Moslems during the 7th century.
Some converted to Christianity in the 4th century, while the majority became Moslems during the 7th century.
Most Zionist thinkers were aware of this.
Yitzhak Ben Zvi, later president of Israel, and David Ben Gurion, Israel's first prime minister, accepted it.
Both stated on several occasions that the Palestinians were the descendants of the Jewish inhabitants of ancient Judea.
So, the Palestinians are the real Jews.
7. So, what about the people in Europe and elsewhere who claimed to be Jews?
From the 2nd century BC onwards, many people were forcibly converted to the Jewish religion.
For example, in the 1st century AD, in Kurdistan, there was the Jewish kingdom of Adiabene.
In the 5th century, in Yemen, a Jewish kingdom emerged.
Arab chronicles tell of North African berber tribes becoming Jewish, during the 7th century.

At Haaretz, on 21 March 2008, Ofri Ilani wote about shattering a 'national mythology'.
Ilani refers to Dahia al-Kahina, a leader of the Berbers in the Aures Mountains.
Al-Kahina was the daughter of a Berber tribe that had converted to Judaism.
According to the Tel Aviv University historian, Prof. Shlomo Sand, author of "Matai ve'ech humtza ha'am hayehudi?" ("When and How the Jewish People Was Invented?"), the queen's tribe and other local tribes are the main sources from which Spanish Jewry sprang.
Professor Alon Tal, of Ben-Gurion University, says of Israel: "As the population density rises it becomes more violent, congested and unpleasant to live in..."
Israel's population has doubled in the last 25 years and it needs lebensraum (additional territory).
Israel has a high birthrate and high Jewish immigration from the former Soviet Union.
Tiny Israel's current population of 8.4 million could reach 20.6 million by 2059.
Expect Israel to speed up the disruption of its neighbours:
Turkey, Syria, Iran, Lebanon, Iraq, Palestine, Jordan, Egypt, Saudi Arabia and Kuwait.
Expect Israel to hasten its plans for the takeover of the land of its neighbours.
Expect Israel to force European governments to accept more Moslem refugees.
The Palestinians outnumber the Jews.
So the Jews have a policy of driving the Palestinians out of their homeland.
The Jews already have their illegal settlements in the 'occupied territories'.
Israel and its friends are highly skilled at manipulating Moslems.
Israel secretly promotes Hamas and all the fundamentalist Islamist groups.
It is possible that Muhammad lived from c. 570 - 632 AD, and that his religion was one of peace and tolerance.
It is possible that Islam was relatively obscure until it was hijacked by Abd al Malik ibn Marwan, the Arab Emperor from 685 - 705AD.
Abd al Malik ibn Marwan may have turned Islam into the official religion of his warlike empire.

In 2012, the historian Tom Holland produced a TV documentary for the UK's Channel 4 which said:
1. There is little evidence to support the 'official' story of Muhammad.
2. There are questions about when the Koran was written.
3. Mecca may not have been the birthplace of Muhammad.
Holland asked why it took several decades after the death of Muhammad for his name to appear on surviving documents or artifacts.
Holland claimed that much of the story of Muhammad was developed some time after the death of Muhammad.
According to the official story, the prophet Muhammad's mother was Aminah, who claimed to be descended from Abraham, and who was reportedly Jewish.
Reportedly, Muhammad decided to reject idol-worship and adopt the Jewish religion.

Two of Prophet Muhammad's wives were Jewish.
"Muhammad clearly saw himself as part of the Jewish tradition. …
"Islam was a radical call back to the basic values of the Torah and even talmudic stories."
The Dome of the Rock marks the spot from which Muhammad is believed to have ascended to heaven.[92]
Muhammad regarded himself as the last prophet of the Jewish-Christian tradition.
The Koran is based mainly on the Old Testament.
Muhammad required that his followers were kosher.
Muhammad required that his followers keep the fast of Yom Kippur.
Muhammad required that his followers be circumcised.
Muhammad required that his followers pray facing Jerusalem.
Muhammad only fell out with the Jews when they refused to accept him as their prophet.

Jesus, Muhammad and Buddha - what were they really like?
There is always a suspicion that the 'official story' is not entirely true.
There is a suspicion that the 'biography' has had untrue bits added, and that there is a lot of 'spin'.
"Late in the third century B.C. Cleomenes, king of Sparta, embarked on a revolutionary policy of cancellation of debts, redistribution of land and emancipation of the helots (slaves).
"He was driven out of Sparta...
"In the story preserved by Plutarch, Cleomenes and twelve friends have a last supper together on the night before his death.
"He is betrayed to his enemies...
"His dead body is crucified.
"A prodigy occurs after the crucifixion; and the people of Alexandria call him a 'hero and son of the gods'."
So, the 'real Jesus', who taught that one should tune in to the Holy Spirit, may not have been crucified?
...
Professor Robert M. Price has investigated Jesus, Muhammad and Buddha and gives his thoughts in Of Myth and Men.
The following is a brief summary.
Jesus
Price asks: was Jesus a holy man especially close to God, or a wise man filled with divine wisdom, or a mythic hero?
With the typical mythic hero from ancient times:
1. The hero's mother is a virgin
2. He is reputed to be a son of a god
3. Evil forces attempt to kill the infant or boy hero
4. He is spirited away to safety.
David Friedrich Strauss in The Life of Jesus Critically Examined suggests that Luke invented his story of the nativity.
Herod the Great died in 4 B.C.
Luke wrote that Joseph and Mary had to go to Bethlehem for a census in 6 A.D.
New Testament accounts of the death of Jesus appear to be rewrites of various earlier stories.
The anointing of Jesus at Bethany is similar to Isis anointing the corpse of her husband Osiris to resurrect him, part of the mummy-resurrection mythos of Egypt.
Luke has one of Jesus' crucified colleagues bid him, "Remember me when you come into your kingdom," a phrase borrowed directly from Diodorus Siculus.
The divine portents attending Jesus' death on the cross reflect those at the crucifixion of rebel king Cleomenes of Sparta at Alexandria according to Plutarch.
These omens cause visitors to the cross in each case to declare the crucified one to be son of god.
As the Gospels have Mary Magdalene and her companions seek the body of Jesus only to find it gone, so do Isis, her sister Nephthys, and their maidens seek the slain Osiris.
The appearance of the risen Jesus to two disciples on the road to Emmaus is similar to the story of Asclepius appearing unrecognized to a woman.
...
Buddha
Buddha taught that by not grasping for things, life goes better.
Buddha taught that by not grasping for things, life goes better.
He did not see himself as being any kind of God.
However, bits seem to have been added to the story:
Some Buddhists are taught that:
Young Buddha was miraculously conceived and announced before birth as the saviour of the world.
One by one four deities appeared to him in human disguises...
The story of Buddha abandoning affluence is similar to that of the Jaina saint Vardhamana (usually called Mahavira), who supposedly lived a single generation earlier than Buddha.
When Buddha sits beneath the Bodhi Tree, he is protected from the demon's assaults by the hood canopy of the mythical Naga King, a hydralike cobra deity.
And so was the Jain hero Parsva, the predecessor of Mahavira.
Some Western scholars of Buddhism, including R. Otto Franke, think that Buddha is simply a collective name for earlier generations of unnamed Buddhist teachers.
Buddhist texts appear to disagree about whether or not there is an individual soul.
....
Muhammad
According to a reconstruction of Islamic origins entitled Hagarism: The Making of the Islamic World by Patricia Crone and Michael Cook (1977):
Some Jews saw Umar, the second caliph of the Arab Empire, as the messiah.
These Jews saw Muhammad as the prophetic herald of 'Umar'.
The term "Muslim" appears first on the Dome of the Rock in 691 AD and nowhere else till the late eighth century.
The early Muslims were known as Hagarenes because they were engaged in a Hegira/Hijra, an Exodus from Arabia to Palestine, the Promised Land where the messiah must manifest himself.
The Hagarenes built the Dome of the Rock.
The Hagarenes then broke with Judaism and turned to Christianity.
The Hagarenes then broke with Judaism and turned to Christianity.
'Umar's messianic status was forgotten.
Jesus was accepted as messiah.
The first Arabic "king" of Jerusalem made a show of praying at Christian sites.
The Hagarenes come to adopt the name "Islam" seeing Muhammad as the person who has revived the Abrahamic faith.
The scholar Günter Lüling reckons that as much as a third of the text of the Koran derives from pre-Islamic Christian texts.
The direction of prayer was switched from Jerusalem to Mecca.
The caliphs and imams were originally a priesthood and were called kahins (originally Cohens).
The rabbinical character of Sunni Islam came from the influence of Babylonian Judaism.

Professor Israel Finkelstein of Tel Aviv University suggests that it is a strong possibility that
the Khirbet Qeiyafa ruins are Canaanite.
"A very similar layer, with almost exact pottery types and other finds hinting in this direction, was found in the nearby Canaanite dig in Bet Shemesh directed by Prof. Shlomo Bonimovitz and Zvi Lederman of Tel Aviv University."
Crying King David: Are the ruins found in Israel really his palace
David and Jonathan - just good friends.
The December 2010 edition of National Geographic magazine(David & Solomon Controversy - National Geographic Magazine) suggests that:
The Kingdom of David was quite possibly "just a little cow town."
But, it all "depends on which archaeologist you ask."
In National Geographic, Robert Draper writes:
"While the Bible says David and Solomon built the kingdom of Israel into a powerful and prestigious empire stretching from the Mediterranean to the Jordan River, from Damascus to the Negev, there's a slight problem - namely, that despite decades of searching, archaeologists had found no solid evidence that David or Solomon ever built anything."
'The ruins are the best example to date of the uncovered fortress city of King David,' professors Yossi Garfinkel and Saar Ganor of Hebrew University said.

The December 2010 edition of National Geographic magazine(David & Solomon Controversy - National Geographic Magazine) suggests that:
The Kingdom of David was quite possibly "just a little cow town."
In National Geographic, Robert Draper writes:
According to National geographic, Eilat Mazar works for two organizations "dedicated to the assertion of Israel's territorial rights."
In 2005, Eilat Mazar claimed she might have found the ruined remains of King David's palace.
According to National Geographic, Israeli archaeologist David Ilan of Hebrew Union College is among the many who doubt that Mazar has in fact found King David's palace.
"My gut tells me this is an eighth- or ninth-century building," he says, constructed a hundred years or more after Solomon died in 930 B.C.
National Geographic quotes Israel Finklestein.
Tel Aviv University's Israel Finkelstein is among those who point out that the so-called "Solomonic" buildings, excavated at Hazor, Gezer, and Megiddo, were constructed well after David and Solomon's time.
According to Finkelstein, King David's Jerusalem was little more than a "hill-country village."
David's kingdom would consist of "500 people with sticks in their hands shouting and cursing and spitting."
Most Israelis apparently were Khazars who converted to the Jewish religion. The Palestinians are the people most likely to have links to the Kingdom of David.
National Geographic has awarded grants to two archaeologists,Yosef Garfinkel and Thomas Levy.
National Geographic reports that, in the Elah Valley, where David allegedly slew Goliath, Hebrew University professor Yosef Garfinkel claims to have found the remains of a 'city' dating to the time that David reigned.
University of California, San Diego professor Thomas Levy has been excavating a 'copper-smelting operation', in an area linked to David's alleged enemies, the Edomites.
Levy dates one period of copper production to the tenth century B.C.
This was when, according to the Bible, the Edomites lived in the area.
But, scholars like Finkelstein state that Edom did not emerge until two centuries later.
Levy and Garfinkel support their claims with data including pottery remnants and radiocarbon dating of olive and date pits found at the sites.
David killed Goliath?
"Maybe Goliath never existed," Garfinkel tells National Geographic.
Garfinkel learnt about a nine foot high megalithic wall and began digging in 2008.
He found buildings which carbon-14 analysis dated to around 1000 B.C. He found bones from cattle, goats, sheep, and fish - but no pig bones.
This suggested Judaeans may have lived here.
A clay pottery object was found with writing that appears to be a proto-Canaanite script.
This suggested a tenth-century B.C. complex Judaean society of the sort which Finkelstein claimed did not exist.
If the Kingdom of David existed it was a very tiny place.
According to National Geographic, Yossi Garfinkel originally announced his conclusions "despite the fact that he had only four olive pits on which to base his dating, a single inscription of a highly ambiguous nature, and a mere 5 percent of his site excavated."
According to archaeologist David Ilan, "Yossi has an agenda - partly ideological, but also personal. He's a very smart and ambitious guy. Finkelstein's the big gorilla, and the young bucks think he's got a monopoly over biblical archaeology. So they want to dethrone him."
King David is important to Moslems, who call him Daoud, and to Jews and Christians.
Daniel Polisar is president of the Shalem Center, the Israeli research institute that helped fund Eilat Mazar's excavation work.
National Geographic quotes Polisar as saying: "You take David and his kingdom out of the book, and you have a different book.
In 2005, Eilat Mazar claimed she might have found the ruined remains of King David's palace.
National Geographic quotes Israel Finklestein.

King David is important to Moslems, who call him Daoud, and to Jews and Christians.
"The narrative is no longer a historical work, but a work of fiction. And then the rest of the Bible is just a propagandistic effort to create something that never was. And if you can't find the evidence for it, then it probably didn't happen. That's why the stakes are so high."
According to national Geographic, the books of the Old Testament telling the story of David and Solomon were probably written at least 300 years after the event.
No other texts from that time exist to back up the story.
National Geographic points out that scholars have failed to provide proof that there really was an Abraham, a Moses, an Exodus or a conquest of Jericho.
Yigael Yadin, an Israeli, uncovered city gates at Hazor in the late 1950s.
He claimed the gates belonged to the tenth-century B.C. empire of Solomon.
Why? Because that was what it said in the First Book of Kings.
The First Book of Kings was added long after Solomon died in 930 B.C.
According to National geographic, unless new evidence emerges, we're left with tenth-century B.C. biblical world that Finkelstein first proposed in a 1996 paper.
That means no large Kingdom of David with fine buildings, but instead a collection of small kingdoms including Philistines, Moabites and Aramaeans.
What about the Palestinians?
East Jerusalem resident and archaeology professor Hani Nur el-Din is quoted by National Geographic as saying, "When I see Palestinian women making the traditional pottery from the early Bronze Age, when I smell the taboon bread baked in the same tradition as the fourth or fifth millennium B.C., this is the cultural DNA. In Palestine there's no written document, no historicity - but still, it's history."
Anyone seen the Kingdom of David?
There is a problem with carbon dating.
National Geographic quotes Eilat mazar as saying: "Carbon-14 doesn't help you solve all this controversy.
"You have the plus or minus" - a margin of error of about 40 years.
"You have different laboratories bringing different interpretations. You have debates about the whole C-14 issue."
Finkelstein says: "Think of the Bible the way you would a stratified archaeological site.
"Some of it was written in the eighth century B.C., some the seventh, and then going all the way to the second B.C. So 600 years of compilation. This doesn't mean that the story doesn't come from antiquity. But the reality presented in the story is a later reality. David, for example, is a historical figure. He did live in the tenth century B.C.
"I accept the descriptions of David as some sort of leader of an upheaval group, troublemakers who lived on the margins of society. But not the golden city of Jerusalem, not the description of a great empire in the time of Solomon. When the authors of the text describe that, they have in their eyes the reality of their own time, the Assyrian Empire.
"Now, Solomon. I think I destroyed Solomon, so to speak. Sorry for that! But take Solomon, dissect it. Take the great visit of the Queen of Sheba - an Arabian queen coming to visit, bringing all sorts of exotic commodities to Jerusalem.
"This is a story which is an impossibility to think about before 732 B.C., before the beginning of Arabian trade under Assyrian domination. Take the story of Solomon as the great, you know, trainer in horses and chariots and big armies and so on. The world behind Solomon is the world of the Assyrian century."
What about Tom Levy's copper mining?
Finkelstein says, "I don't buy that it's from the tenth century B.C. There's no way people lived on this site during production. The fire, the toxic fumes—forget it! Instead, look at the fortress of En Hazeva on our side of the Jordan River, built by the Assyrians on the main road to Edom.
"I see Tom's building as an eighth-century Assyrian fortress parallel to the other one. And look, at the end of the day, his is a marginal site. It's not a stratified city with many eras, like Megiddo and Tel Rehov. Taking a pile of slag and making it the center of the discussion of biblical history—forget it, no way, I reject this absolutely!"
What about Garfinkel's 'city'?
Finkelstein says: "Look, you'll never catch me saying, 'I've found one olive pit at a stratum in Megiddo, and this olive pit - which goes against hundreds of carbon-14 determinations - is going to decide the fate of Western civilization.' "
The writing found at the site? Probably Philistine.
According to National geographic, even if Mazar, Levy andGarfinkel can prove their findings, "this does not a glorious biblical dynasty make."
National geographic quotes Finkelstein as saying: "Look, when I'm doing research, I have to distinguish between the culture of David and the historical David.
"David is extremely important for my cultural identity.... I'm proud that this nobody from nowhere became the center of Western tradition."
The National Geographic does not seem particularly pro-Israel.
There is a belief that the original David was Egyptian.

Mormons, The Latter Days Saints Church from Utah - USA, claim that there are material proof engraved in stone that the Jews had found America before Columbus. They claim that somewhere in Canada a few Jewish symbols can be found engraved in stone.
Mormons also claim that the archeollogical sites from ancient civilizations located at South America are from the people described in the Book of Mormon. A people descending from a Jew called Nephi and called Nephites.
And all this to try to prove that the Book of Mormon are a book delivered by God and that the Mormons are a superior race - the Priesthood of the New Zion.
Here we can found a similarity with the Bible, and with the Jews and the sate of Israel.
Before there was entertainment and propaganda there was religion. I'm thinking the next one will be about extra-terestials.

You are seriously ignorant when it comes to Islam !
Mohammed is the Most Influential Person in History

He is also the most documented Man in Human History.

Why don't you look at what scholars have to say about the prophet? like professor William Montgomery Watt,Gandhi or Rev.Bosworth Smith ?
" Mohammed was jewish " RIDICULOUS!
The quran warns the muslims about the jews and there plans.
The prophet declares war on usury and there is even a quote in the quran "The stones and trees will say O Muslims, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill ...
Tom Holland’s book was released in the Netherlands in Dutch before it appeared in English. It had a different title then, The Fourth Beast..... and you actually take this cretins work seriously.
He is a joke just like Robert Spencer yet you seem to use them as a source for your information in regards to islam.
I actually like alot of your work but i don't understand why you would post such dribble when it comes to Islam ..
Every thing negative about Islam comes from Jews and you know this because you write about it.... Why don't you read what past scholars and great figures of history have stated about Mohammed ?
He never wore silk or gold,He never sat on a throne
He used to wash his own clothes and when he died he had no money or belongings even though he was the ruler of the most powerful kingdom ...
The ink of a scholar is holier than the blood of a Martyr
Prophet Mohammed
Dear Roger,
You appear to have been brainwashed?
Consider for a moment that the Koran is not the work of the divine.
The Koran was put into writing a long time after the death of Mohammed, and like the Bible it contains a lot of nonsense.
Mohammed was a bloke living probably in the Holy Land who simply wanted people to turn away from the worship of idols.
Long after Mohammed's death, the Arab Empire started making things up about Mohammed. They wanted a war-like religion to unite the Empire.
The ideas of Jesus were hijacked in a similar way, first by certain Jews, and then by the Roman Empire.
Heaven is within you, and is not in some fixed geographical location such as Mecca or Jerusalem.
Regards,
Aangirfan.

Eric Zeusse, the historian and journalist, says how the elite used religion to start their wats to gain control of other people's wealth, processions, and resources. They would put protestants against Catholics, and Christians against Muslims, or wherever.
The US and the Zionists are now putting the Sunnis against the Shia's and the stupid buggers are falling for it, just as we did in centuries past. Although, to be fair the Sunni fighters are mainly mercenaries being paid to stir up trouble.
It looks s if they are going to try to close down the alternative news sites soon. They say it puts out 'fake news'. Hitler closed down democracy by saying there was a threat from extremists, and it looks like the West is trying to do the same thing. This video below is shocking!

Off-Guardian
A few days ago, every local news station in America owned by the Sinclair Broadcast Group – a massive media conglomerate – read short a statement about the spread of “fake news”. The same statement, word-for-word. CBS, ABC, NBC and Fox, it didn’t matter. They were united in their chant.
As you watch the montage – put together by user “D” on youtube – you have to ask yourself: What is the mechanism behind this? Who wrote the statement, and what structure allows their words to be spoken by hundreds of mouths to millions of viewers?
Most importantly – how revealing is this of our media? How often has this united-front of opinion been present, but less obvious?

Israel Kills Palestinians and Western Liberals Shrug. Their Humanitarianism Is a Sham
Mehdi Hasan
The Intercept
“If the concept of intervention is driven by universal human rights, why is it — from the people who identify themselves as liberal interventionists — why do we never hear a peep, a word, about intervening to protect the Palestinians?”
That was the question I put to the French philosopher, author, and champion of liberal (or humanitarian) interventionism, Bernard-Henri Lévy, on my Al Jazeera English interview show “Head to Head” in 2013.
The usually silver-tongued Levy struggled to answer the question. The situation in Palestine is “not the same” as in Syria and “you have not all the good on one side and all the bad on the other side,” said Levy, who once remarked in reference to the Israeli Defense Forces, or IDF, that he had “never seen such a democratic army, which asks itself so many moral questions.”
I couldn’t help but be reminded of my exchange with the man known as “BHL” this past weekend, as I watched horrific images of unarmed Palestinian protesters at the Gaza border being shot in the back by the “democratic army” of Israel. How many “moral questions” did those Israeli snipers ask themselves, I wondered, before they gunned down Gazan refugees for daring to demand a return to their homes inside the Green Line?
On Friday, the IDF shot an astonishing 773 people with live ammunition, killing 17 of them. Yet a spokesperson for the IDF bragged that Israeli troops “arrived prepared” and “everything was accurate. … We know where every bullet landed.” On Sunday, Israel’s hawkish defense minister, Avigdor Lieberman, roundly rejected calls from the European Union and the United Nations for an independent inquiry into the violence and insisted that “our soldiers deserve a commendation.”
To be clear, then: Israeli troops will continue to murder and maim Palestinians while the Israeli government guarantees that there will be no consequences for their actions.
So, where is the outcry from liberal interventionists across the West? Where is BHL, as Palestinians are being shot and wounded in the hundreds in 2018?
Where is the call from former U.K. Prime Minister Tony Blair, whose 1999 speech in Chicago defending the concept of a “just war” and a “doctrine of the international community” became a key text for liberal interventionists, for a “no-fly” zone over Gaza? Why does a guest speaker at Ariel Sharon’s funeral have nothing to say about the increasing number of Palestinian funerals?
