However, the Jews are indigenous to the land and were the first to build a true civilization in the region that could be measured by any historical or archaeological standard, which is why the Waqf is so adamant in destroying the Temple Mount and the Jewish artifacts that are being found amidst the Waqf’s bulldozing.The Jews are the people with the oldest continuous presence there, in spite of their period of expulsion from their home by Nebuchadnezzar which resulted in the Babylonian exile, and the expulsion caused by the Romans when they invaded and sacked Jerusalem, purging and robbing the Jewish Holy Temple of all its Holy artifacts and burning it to the ground.

The Jews are the only ancient culture remaining much as they were thousands of years ago, and their right to the land exists with a strong claim.

Palestine became largely “Arab” the same way that most of the almost two dozen states that call themselves “Arab” today did – by conquest, occupation, settlement, and forced Arabization of other native, non-Arab peoples and their lands. These peoples included the Berbers, Copts, Assyrians, Black Africans, Jews, Kurds, non-Arab Lebanese, and so forth.Muhammad and his followers burst out of the Arabian Peninsula in the 7th century C.E. and spread murder, rape, and godlessness in all directions.

Anything else contrary to these facts are simply lies.

The first poster above is indicative of the openness and creativity of the Jews in Palestine. It was created by the Israeli artist Ze’ev Raban of the Bezalel school in 1929, and it was designed to promote tourism to the Land of Palestine, which was where Jews, indigenous to the land lived pre-1948 Israel.

Ze’ev Raban is regarded as a leading member of the Bezalel art style, in which artists portrayed both Biblical and Zionist themes in a style influenced by the European jugendstil (similar to Art Noveau) and by traditional Persian and Syrian styles.

Bezalel Academy of Art and Design is Israel’s national school of art. It is named after the Biblical figure Bezalel, son of Uri, who was appointed by Moses to oversee the design and construction of the Tabernacle (Exodus 35:30).

The poster has the words “Society for the Promotion of Travel in the Holy Land” at the top and below is a drawing of a palm tree overlooking a body of water, possibly Haifa, Jaffa, or Tiberias, with sheperds sitting on the hillside. Below are the words (from Song of Songs):

The Human Rights Coalition Against Radical Islam

Radical Islam presents a worldwide threat to human rights. Our group does not debate theology and will never claim “Islam” is inherently radical, or that all Muslims are “radicals” or terrorists. However, it is a simple fact that Radical Islam is a threat to world peace. Presently there are Radical Muslims fighting in countries across the world, including, but not limited to: India, Thailand, the Philippines, Ethiopia, Israel, Iraq, Lebanon, Iran, Afghanistan, Russia and “Western” states such as the United States, Australia and Western Europe.

The Human Rights Coalition Against Radical Islam is not anti-Muslim. On the contrary! Radical Islam is a threat to Muslims even more than it is to non-Muslims. More Muslims have died due to Radical Islam than non-Muslims. The Taliban makes life a living hell for citizens of Afghanistan and Pakistan. Women are honor killed and gays have been killed for the mere crime of being gay. It is with an eye towards protecting human rights around the world that this diverse group has formed.

Who are we and what are our goals?
1. We are a coalition of organizations and individuals representing a full cross-section of the American people. Americans of every race, color and creed are represented in this coalition of groups — all have been personally affected by the spread of Radical Islam. As such, individuals from continents across the world and religions from around the world have joined together to say “YES to human rights” and “NO to radical Islam.” The religions and ideologies represented include Christians of numerous denominations, Jews, Hindus, Sikhs, Muslims and Secular Humanists.

2. Our mission is to educate the American people to the threat of Radical Islam and Sharia Law, and to challenge those enablers and apologists who would diminish our vigilance in opposing this virulent threat to humanistic values and values of tolerance. With education comes mobilization to action, as noted in mission statement #3, below.

3. Our strategy is to leverage the strengths of our coalition participants: 1) to conduct physical events such as marches, demonstrations, and leafleting; 2) to utilize the Internet to spread our message; 3) to promote media appearances by those who support our cause; 4) to utilize print and video to educate the public and the media to the threats we face; 5) to lobby locally and in Washington DC with letter writing campaigns; 6) to picket media and other outlets which promote the anti-human rights agenda of Radical Islam; 7) to expand our outreach to include educational seminars at local community centers, churches, synagogues and schools.

4. Our group seeks to promote a human rights agenda. The specific enemies of human rights we are struggling against are, in addition to ignorance and apathy, those groups and individuals in the United States and elsewhere who are part of, or supporters of, Radical Islam. These groups include, amongst others, Al Queda, Hamas, Hezbollah, Lashkar-e-Toiba, Deobandi Islamists, the Iranian regime, and other supporters known as Wahhabists (fundamentalist Muslims and Islamists). Additional groups and ideologies that fight against human rights are the “enablers” of Radical Islam.

These groups and ideologies include “political correctness,” the mainstream media (which often blame terror attacks on ‘South Asians’ or ‘militants’, rather than simply naming the enemy, and which seeks to employ tactics of moral equivalence), university faculties (which often employ known members of terror groups, such as Sami Al-Arian, and Rashid Khalidi, who was a PLO spokesperson, and similarly teach “post-modern” moral equivalence), student groups such as the International Solidarity Movement (which acts as “human shields” and aids and abets Radical Islam); and “human rights” groups, including Amnesty International, Human Rights Watch and the United Nations (which, through ignorance, misunderstanding, paternalism, willful blindness or guilt, fail to appreciate Radical Islam’s threat to decency, tolerance and peace). These “human rights” groups have taken over the English language, claiming they believe in ‘peace’, when in fact they are often aiding and abeting Radical Islam.

5. This group will be tarred and feathered in the press as being ‘Islamophobic’, even as we seek to promote the human rights of Muslims. Our group will always show a tolerant and moderate message of human rights; however, it is a simple fact that those who seek to promote the truth about Radical Islam face the claim of being “Islamophobic.” In order to avoid pitfalls others have fallen into, this group will never debate theology. The group’s goal is not to present Islam as inherently one way or another, but rather to showcase the human rights atrocities going on across the world, in order to spur action. If necessary, a legal defense fund will be set up to ensure that our human rights message is seen and heard around the world.
