Note: The pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel crowd got what they came for - a video of an IDF soldier striking one of the activist in the crowd. The following article posted on Israpundit explains what prompted the altercation and it appears only one side of the story is being told and promoted - the activist's side, which is just another propaganda piece used against the State of Israel. The soldier, as you will learn, was struck by the Danish youth and broke several of the Colonel's fingers This is not shown in the anarchist edited videotape.

The big story seems to be the IDF colonel who hit a Danish guttersnipe in the face with the butt of his rifle. The anarchists videotaped the incident and edited out what CAUSED the colonel to strike the guttersnipe. Well, now we know. The colonel, who is religious, has a long track record of keeping order and staying calm in the face of “anarchist” provocations. So what set him off? The Danish guttersnipe struck him violently and broke several of the colonel’s fingers. This is not shown in the anarchist edited videotape.
The colonel is Shalom Eisner and he has been suspended from duties.
But he should instead be given a medal. Please take a moment and
send the Prime Minister a message, at this web site, calling for the
full reinstatement of Colonel Eisner and his being granted a medal:

fractures in his hand.

leftists against him and his soldiers.

Obviously Plaut agrees with my comment in the other post. But not everybody does. Steinberg said “Tragically they are still successful in finding soldiers and, in this case, quite senior officers who lose control.” In other words, he doesn’t condone the soldiers actions. Even Plaut justified the soldier by saying he had been attacked. I took the position that as a matter of policy we should make them fear us. Its called deterrence. But as good as it feels to force conformity with our demands, some say it hurts our image around the world. Should we be concerned with this? Should we create an image of “nice” or an image of toughness? Which suits us better. Should we act in confrontation or should we avoid confrontation. Should we make a a big deal out of it or should we make the event a yawn? Ted Belman

Well the “Flytilla” of pro-terrorism anarcho-fascists and Hitler Youth pretty much was halted in their airport espresso lounges yesterday. Only a handful of the gutternsnipes made it into Israel. Unfortunately, the government did not take my advice of shipping those into Gaza and then refusing ever to let them leave. The women “anarchists” could stay in Gaza and find work as comfort girls.

Meanwhile, I think we need a new marching song to salute Colonel
Eisner and celebrate the new out-of-character courage of the Israeli
government in dealing with the anarcho-nazis. (The government also
showed uncharacteristic moxie in its sarcastic letter mocking the
guttersnipes.

I have composed just the thing, based on the Michael Jackson song “Beat It!”
Original Michael Jackson Lyrics here:
Here is my version:
- “Beat them”
[1st Verse]
We Told them Don’t You Ever Come Around Here
Don’t Wanna See Your Face, You Better Disappear
The Hatred’s In Their Eyes And Their Words Are Really Clear
So Beat them, Just Beat them
[2nd Verse]
You Better Run, You Better Do What You Can
They wanna shed our Blood, So Be A Macho Man
We gonna Be Tough, Let’s toss them in our Can
So Beat them, Taser them so bad
[Chorus]
Just Beat them, Beat them, Beat them, Beat them
No One Wants To Be Defeated
Showin’ the Hitler Youth our Fight
Anarcho-fascists Left and Right
Just Beat them, Beat them
Just Beat them, Beat them
Just Beat them, Beat them
Just Beat them, Beat them
[Chorus]
Beat them, Beat them, Beat them, Beat them

Earlier Sunday, the anarchists uploaded a video to the Internet in
which Eisner is seen slamming his gun, magazine first, into the face
of an ISM anarchist. As is usual in such cases, the anarchists’ video
is edited and does not include any documentation of their provocations
vis-à-vis the reservist force that had to deal with them on the Jewish
Sabbath. There was no evidence in the video that the anarchist was
injured.
