ISRAEL: Where the Slave Trade Heads
ipsnews.net — Israel continues to be a favorite destination for the trafficking of women for the sex industry, also known as the white slave trade. The industry has proved very lucrative, with each woman sold in Israel bringing in anywhere between 50,000 to 100,000 dollars.

Since Reagan's time, there was an influx of very dubious 'Jews' seeking Western freedoms to ply their criminality unfettered. As in the case of Cuba, the USSR authorities emptied the jails of habitual criminals to satisfy the Western human rights organizations. Israel desperately needed any non-Arabs to counter the spiralling Palestinian birth rate that they couldn't compete with naturally. For every Arab that they killed, two were born to replace the murdered one.
You'll recall the Pollard US spy case where Israel disclosed the entire CIA network behind the Iron Curtain as a trade with the USSR for the release of more jail scum. Many of these proved to be Nazis with not a drop of Jewish blood but were given citizenship of the Zionist state.
When the USSR disintegrated, it was 'Jewish' oligarchs what virtually stole the assets. Putin's rise saw them take to the hills. The US, the UK and dear old Israel were the major destinations for these Mafia. With its size and already corrupt 'democracy', Israel was virtually dominated by the influx of the Russian Mafia.

"Israel is actually highly socialist. "
My point was...
"There is no more justification today to say that "Israel is actually highly socialist" than if you substituted the United States as socialist!"
you stated ...
"The US doesn't provide its citizens with health care."
I asked ...
"Were we talking about health care?" While knowing the answer was that we were not.

Israelis have been shocked by the story of a group of young immigrants from the former Soviet Union who allegedly formed a neo-Nazi cell in the Jewish state - founded as a haven from the European anti-Semitism that led to the Nazi Holocaust in World War II.
The group, from the central town of Petah Tikva, are said to have filmed themselves carrying out hate crimes, wearing Nazi insignia and proclaiming their allegiance to Adolf Hitler- monsieurginger, on 08/31/2008, -4/+3So you have a problem with Israel fighting against Neo-Nazi groups in and out of Israel?

The fact that many of these criminals ended up within the US was due to the deception of the Israel state when it gave them clean criminal records just so they could dump their Russian Mafia types on the US

What was going through the heads of the soldiers who beat him mercilessly, with a club, with the butt of a rifle and with kicks to his head, so that he died? Is it possible that he tried to attack them with a knife, even though two eyewitnesses didn't see it? Even if he did, why did the soldiers continue to beat him, even after he lay on the ground, unconscious and perhaps bound as well, as an eyewitness told us? And what kind of monstrous behaviour is it to handcuff the bereaved father, and then leave him on the ground, in front of the body of his beaten and dying son? Above all, why did the Israel Defense Forces rush to dismiss this grave incident, "after an initial investigation," during which nobody interrogated the eyewitnesses, with the conclusion, "the soldiers acted properly"? - RightHand, on 08/31/2008, -3/+7UN expert stands by Nazi comments

The next UN investigator into Israeli conduct in the occupied territories has stood by comments comparing Israeli actions in Gaza to those of the Nazis.
Speaking to the BBC, Professor Richard Falk said he believed that up to now Israel had been successful in avoiding the criticism that it was due.
Professor Falk is scheduled to take up his post for the UN Human Rights Council later in the year.
But Israel wants his mandate changed to probe Palestinian actions as well.
Professor Falk said he drew the comparison between the treatment of Palestinians with the Nazi record of collective atrocity, because of what he described as the massive Israeli punishment directed at the entire population of Gaza.
He said he understood that it was a provocative thing to say, but at the time, last summer, he had wanted to shake the American public from its torpor.

The U.S. State Department placed Israel in Tier 2 position in its 2007 Trafficking in Persons report. And an Israeli court ruled against the country's work visa policy, which forces foreign workers into indentured labour with a single employer.
"Israel was only upgraded to Tier 2 last year," Romm Lewkowicz, a spokesman from Israel's Hotline for Migrant Workers, an advocacy group which defends the rights of foreign workers, told IPS.
The U.S. State Department divides countries into three tiers. Tier 1 is for countries that have successfully implemented measures to control trafficking (most Western countries fall into this category). Tier 2 is for countries that are trying to eradicate this modern day slavery but still fail to meet the necessary standards. Tier 3 is reserved for countries that have not addressed the issue at the most basic level.
In 2006 Israel was on the U.S. State Department's Watch List for people trafficking

How will the Zionist myth-makers dismiss US official figures? Attack the messenger? The IPS! Attack the message? The US government! One thing is for sure.

Leaving out the myth-makers, Russian Mafia state, and centre parts of your statement, you are right. Pay attention: A lot of the upgrading has to do with the sex trade and young female trafficking. And Zionists do acknowledge this. If you left out some of your more extreme words, you would be right. It seems that everything you say is aimed at attacking Israel. So, in the interest of clarity, which country/society in the Middle East would you like Israel to be more like?

"If you left out some of your more extreme words, you would be right. It seems that everything you say is aimed at attacking Israel. "
Friend, I've read your Zionist controlled media, particularly those rags in the US, denigrate all Muslims, all Arabs with out exception except the one in 1,000 in your pay. You have campaigned for a decade to turn Americans against these people than did America far less harm than the Zionists. Your neoCon brethren are the ones directly responsible for 4,000+ US deaths in Iraq yet the Arabs get the blame. You have spy upon, and directly killed US servicemen.
You have advocated the invasion of one after the other of those countries. US arms in Zionist hands have killed Arabs in holocaust style proportions. You have bad mouthed Muslim women, their dress etc and yet there are far far more examples of sex crimes, chauvinism, bigotry, child abuse, depravity etc within the extreme Zionist religious that you cover up. By morality standards, the Muslims are angels in comparison with the sick Zionists.
And you would like me to moderate my language. You here are the ones that attempt to personally insult me, but I don't care. I do care about the constant Zionist slandering of Muslim society to make invasion and attack seem reasonable. Most Arabs hold America in far higher regard than the Zionists. Like all beggars, the Zionists find it easier to constantly have the paw out for more if they can sneer at the giver, America. Prove this wrong.
This harsh style is not my personality and far from my speaking style but this style is best at getting your attention and maybe soften some hearts. - bernk1, on 09/01/2008, -1/+4I've done all that? Wow.
I don't care if you moderate your language or not. I pretty much agreed with what you said, up to a point, which I explained. Re-read what I have written.

Women MPs in Israel's Knesset have criticised the foreign ministry for resorting to "pornography" to promote Israel abroad after a feature appeared in the men's magazine Maxim featuring four former soldiers photographed in their underwear.
"It is unfortunate that the New York consulate thinks that Israel's relevance will be expressed by the use of naked women who are treated as an object, and not as women of substance who exude achievement and success," she said.
Colette Avital, of the Labour party, described the article as a "pornographic campaign to encourage tourism".- RightHand, on 08/31/2008, -1/+4SICK. Sick.

Trafficking in women a worldwide epidemic, Malarek says,
Up to - 10,000 trafficked women in Israel and more than 280 brothels in Tel Aviv alone -

MONTREAL - Calling human trafficking one of the greatest human rights abuses of our time, Canadian journalist and social activist Victor Malarek addressed the Jewish community at a Montreal synagogue last Thursday.
Malarek said destitute Third World and Eastern European females as young as 12 are tricked into leaving their homelands with promises of wealth and prosperity in the West, as well as Israel. Instead, they are sold into the sex trade by organized crime, gangs, pimps and brothel owners.
"Newspaper ads from modelling and employment agencies promise exciting jobs, but the women are duped," Malarek told the Jewish Tribune. "They must submit, or they are raped, beaten and tortured. There are between 5,000 and 10,000 trafficked women in Israel and more than 280 brothels in Tel Aviv alone. It is a human rights issue the Jewish community knows about. They have a voice and they must use it."
The United Nations has cited human trafficking as an international crime generating more than US $12 billion worldwide. More than 800,000 people are trafficked annually, forced into prostitution and threatened with death should they attempt to escape the clutches of their captors. Canada is both a means of access to the United States, as well as a final destination for approximately 2,000 women each year.
"Governments should be held accountable," said Liberal MP Irwin Cotler, who also addressed the crowd. "It is a very serious problem in Israel, and Canada has been inadequate in the protection of victims of trafficking. It is a global slave trade."
As the previous federal justice minister, Cotler aided in the implementation of several bills addressing the protection of vulnerable individuals, yet he openly admitted there have never been any prosecutions made for human trafficking. He focused on raising the public's awareness of trafficking as a method to prevent what he called the fastest rising criminal industry in the world today. Responding to an audience member's question, he said the problem of mistakenly granting Canadian visas to people who should not obtain them is "an issue for the immigration department."

People always accuse Jews of having dual loyalties because some of them have multiple citizenship or because Israel is the Jewish state. Yet nobody brings has a problem with people who dual citizenship of other countries. You think it brings a problem because you already think that Israel is an enemy. But the truth that it isn't. Israel has such a close relationship with Israel. It is the US's closest ally. It's not like someone having german citizenship and american citizenship during ww2. It's like having british and american citizenship during ww2. You have a problem with american jews serving in the idf in israel. What about all those americans that fought on the british side during ww2 even before the start of american involvement? - RightHand, on 09/01/2008, -2/+1As you have raised double-loyalty or 'duel-loyalty'.
Check the proportion of 'duels' that have died in Iraq vis a vis all others. I know that the Marshall Islands are at one end with Latinos and Blacks while it will be no surprise who's at the other end by a long way. So if dying for America is any judgement of racial loyalty, those that are loyalty challenged don't rate in comparison. And yet they have little problem joining the IDF to kill of women and children but run from Hizbollah.
How many duels died on 9/11 while the Zionist danced as they recorded events?
Now with TRIPLE loyalty. Duel/double is bad. Treble must be head-banger stuff. Explains your comments?
So you are on the USS Liberty when the Zionist killers attack. You are a 'duel'. Do you shoot back at the killers or shoot more of the Americans? - Conspiracy20, on 09/02/2008, -0/+2@monsieurginger What about all those americans that fought on the british side during ww2 even before the start of american involvement? Perhaps I'm reading this differently then they way you meant to portray it. You narrowed the American side to WW2 (which by the way if the English did fight over there it was because the US wasn't in it yet) and fighting for Israel for whatever it is they fight for. One's a definitive and one's a generic.

Olmert's behaviour in recently is reminiscent of Moshe Katsav's in Jan 2007, when Israel's president felt the noose tightening around his neck. He lashed out against the AG and the police. Today, when the police investigation is gradually pushing the PM into a corner, he is using the exact same method: slandering those responsible for law enforcement and implying that they are motivated by extraneous considerations.
This way of dealing with the suspicions, which is common to both, is not surprising because their situation is similar.
Both behaved disgracefully for years, exploiting their public status;
both concealed their embarrassing behaviour;
both are reacting like wounded animals when their shame is exposed; and
both are aiming their claws at the authorities and the people tasked with revealing their corrupt acts.
The two are forgetting that one has to come to the court with clean hands.

I don't doubt that there is Human trafficking - but, when I see numbers like that, I take it with a grain of salt. Prostitution is illegal in many places and stigmatized in others. This leads many willing prostitutes, when busted by the cops, to claim they were forced into it. Furthermore "Human trafficking" is blown out of proportion by those who wish to deny women the right to sell sexual services - and the right of men to buy them. Human trafficking and child prostitutes (both mentioned in this article) are used as proxies to fool the public into believing (through implication and lopsided coverage via the media) that most prostitution is either forced or involves children. This, of course, is not the case. In conclusion, we should come down hard on REAL Human trafficking and REAL child prostitution but be careful to distinguish between those and the women and men who willingly buy and sell sexual services and only wish to be left alone. - 4Christ, on 09/01/2008, -3/+2AMEN!!!!!!What propaganda!
