Please reconsider the source of the above article



which makes it just another piece of propaganda.


One of Scotland’s councils has just implemented a boycott of Israel after comparing the country to apartheid South Africa.

The Clackmannanshire Council declared it would resist all economic and political support for Israel in order to “end suffering in Palestine”.


The world might have a last chance to become a better and more peaceful place if more countries were able to free themthelves from the forceful, omnipresent and deceptive pro Israel indoctriation by school and history books, Hollywood and msm.

Let's blame the Hollywood and msm created "Nazis" instead
Much easier as we are all used to it already since kindergarten.

I decided to post this topic here because first and foremost it concerns Scotland and then I would not exclude some kind of hidden agenda or retaliation, taking into consideration what the above Arutz Sheva7 propaganda article communicated on a more subliminal level.

Margaret and Nicola McDonough found by horrified guests at Premier Inn, Greenock


Margaret McDonough, 52, died in hospital after being found with serious wounds in a room at a Premier Inn early on Friday morning.

A 23-year-old Nicola McDonough who was found seriously injured along with her mother at a hotel in Greenock has died in hospital.

Police treating death as 'unexplained' but NOT looking for third party - Why? Always extremely suspicious if they are that fast to decide NOT to look.

"Our inquiries have revealed that after last being seen in the Paisley area around 09:00 on Thursday 9 May, both travelled to the Balloch area and we have a sighting of them around 11:00 that day in Carrochan Road in Balloch."

Margaret McDonough was a mother of five grown children and a foster carer. She had stood as a Liberal Democrat candidate in council elections.

Church of Scotland revises controversial Israel report

IS RA EL is interesting in many ways.

'RA' is interesting in itself.

It makes an appearance in many words doesnt it.

I dont think its an accident either in many cases, thats what im saying.

The authors make a decent case, via biography, naming conventions, history, genealogy, iconography, linguistics, and, to a lesser extent, DNA for many of those historically in very high places in Scotland having come from Jewish roots -- and, to some extent, having preserved them despite abundant reasons to abandon them.





I wonder how the OP fits in with this?

Charles Torres Veitch, who also has "German" ancestors, comes to mind first.

Church of Scotland to alter report denying Jews’ claims to Israel

But the ten-page report still suggests the church boycott Israel.





The Church of Scotland will reword a controversial report that said “scripture” provides no basis for Jewish claims to Israel.

According to a statement by the church, a 10-page report, entitled “The Inheritance of Abraham” published online earlier this month, has been taken down from the Church of Scotland’s website until it is rewritten.

A message posted on the church’s website said that following talks on Thursday with Jewish leaders, the church has agreed to change the report by adding “a new introduction to set the context for the report and give clarity about some of the language used.”

The statement, co-signed by Board of Deputies of British Jews and three other Jewish groups, also said the church “needs to be explicit “ about its recognition of Israel’s right to exist.

The report had been submitted by the Church and Society Council ahead of a general assembly later this month.

In addition to suggesting the church boycott Israel, the original document rejected “claims that scripture offers any peoples a privileged claim for possession of a particular territory.”

Such claims raise “an increasing number of difficulties and current Israeli policies regarding the Palestinians have sharpened this questioning,” the document said. It further suggested some Jews believe they have a right to the land of Israel “as compensation for the suffering of the Holocaust”.

The report sparked furious reactions from the Scottish Council of Jewish Communities, the Anti-Defamation League and the Israeli envoy to the United Kingdom.

“This report not only plays into extremist political positions, but negates and belittles the deeply held Jewish attachment to the land of Israel in a way which is truly hurtful,” Ambassador Daniel Taub (taub means deaf in German, Taube means dove) said.

Israel’s Army Radio quoted Taub as accusing the church of anti-Semitism.

The report will be debated and then voted on by 723 general assembly commissioners on May 18. (2013)

Israel condemns Church of Scotland report that questions Jews' divine right to Israel

Israel's ambassador to the UK has condemned a report by the Church of Scotland that questioned the divine right of Jews to the land of Israel.



Israeli youths hold their national flag as they take part in the 'flag march' through Damascus Gate in Jerusalem's old city during celebrations for Jerusalem Day on May 8, 2013 which marks the anniversary of the 'reunification' of the holy city after Israel captured the Arab eastern sector from Jordan during the 1967 Six-Day War.



Israel's ambassador to the UK has condemned a report by the Church of Scotland that questioned the divine right of Jews to the land of Israel.

The 10-page discussion paper, produced by the Church and Society Council of the Church of Scotland and due to be debated at the church's General Assembly later this month, reportedly says that "promises about the land of Israel were never intended to be taken literally" and that the Bible should not be used to settle conflicts over land.

It continues:

"As long as Zionists think that Jewish people are serving God’s special purpose and that abuses by the state of Israel... don’t invalidate the Zionist project, they will believe themselves more entitled to the land than the Palestinian people."

The document, published on the Church's website, asks:

"Would the Jewish people today have a fairer claim to the land if they dealt justly with the Palestinians?"

Jews Joining Palestinian Boycott of Israel
June 5, 2015

(left, BDS movement skirts political gridlock.)

Israel's barbarous treatment of Palestinians is making many "liberal" US Jews join the Palestinian "BDS" movement which stands for boycott, divestment and sanctions. Here, CUNY Professor Peter Beinart
predicts this fissure will become the focus of jewish politics in the US.
It may be time for Mossad to rally US Jews with some false flag "anti Semitic" attacks.

by Peter Beinart
Abridged by henrymakow.com

The news that [political funder] Sheldon Adelson will this weekend host a secret conference for Jewish groups aimed at countering the boycott, divestment and sanctions movement is yet more evidence that "pro-Israel" activism in the United States is entering a new phase...

BDS is growing in large measure because the Israeli-Palestinian peace process has died. For six years, Netanyahu has publicly rejected the idea of a Palestinian state along the 1967 lines, with land swaps.

Most Palestinians have lost any faith that negotiations with Israel can bring them a state anytime soon. And Mahmoud Abbas' failure to end the occupation, or stand for election, has wrecked his legitimacy among Palestinian activists.


The BDS movement has entered this breach. It offers Palestinian activists a way to bypass their divided, corrupt, ineffectual politicians by taking the struggle against Israel into their own hands. Its three planks -- an end to Israeli control of the West Bank and Gaza Strip, equality for Palestinian citizens of Israel and the return of Palestinian refugees--offers something for each of the three main Palestinian populations (those in the occupied territories, those inside Israel proper and refugees) and thus unites a divided people.

As a nonviolent movement that speaks in the language of human rights and international law rather than Islamic theology, the movement also attracts progressive allies who would never join a movement defined by suicide bombings and the Hamas charter.

Already, BDS is changing the landscape of organized American Jewish life. First, it is making Washington less important, which may make AIPAC less important. AIPAC's power rests on the relations between its members and members of Congress. But the BDS movement bypasses Congress in favor of universities, liberal Christian groups and trade unions, where it can gain a more sympathetic ear.

The response has been a gold rush among American Jewish groups seeking to lead the anti-BDS charge. In 2010, the Jewish Federations of North America and the Jewish Council on Public Affairs created the Israel Action Network to combat Israel's "delegitimization." As the Forward notes, AIPAC, the Anti-Defamation League and the American Jewish Committee have all recently "set up operations geared at students" largely to do the same thing. In Washington, AIPAC still dominates. But in these new arenas where the BDS struggle will be fought, AIPAC is just one Jewish group among many.

The second consequence of the rise of BDS will be to increase the prominence of Jewish Voices for Peace. Right now, many establishment-minded American Jews don't know what JVP is. In their mind, J Street still represents American Jewry's left flank. But as the only significant American Jewish group to support BDS, Jewish Voices for Peace will grow in prominence as the movement itself does.

Already, non-Jewish BDS activists cite JVP as evidence that American Jews do not monolithically oppose their cause. The more that mainstream American Jews hear this, the more enraged at JVP they will become. How exactly that rage will express itself, I don't know. But as JVP grows, its battles with the American Jewish establishment will make those of J Street look tame.


Finally, BDS will spark a growing debate among American Jews about Zionism itself. American Jews are used to thinking of Palestinians as residents of the West Bank and Gaza Strip. (By using the phrase "Arab Israelis," American Jews even delude themselves that the Arabs living inside the 1967 lines are not really Palestinian.) But many of the Palestinians active in BDS live in the West or hail from Israel proper or both. That means that for them personally, the rights of Palestinian citizens of Israel and the rights of Palestinian refugees are at least as important as the rights of Palestinians in the occupied territories.

Ending Israel's occupation of the West Bank and Gaza doesn't threaten its character as a Jewish state. To the contrary, it may help preserve it, which is why many centrist American Jews support the two-state solution. But as the BDS movement grows more prominent, it will spark more debate about Palestinian citizens and Palestinians refugees, both subjects that expose the tension between Israel's democratic character and its policies -- in immigration and public life -- that privilege Jews.


Inside the American Jewish establishment, the first response to the BDS movement's challenge to Zionism has been to cry anti-Semitism. But that response conceals a dirty little secret: that many "pro-Israel" activists haven't thought much about the tension between Jewish statehood and liberal democracy, and thus don't really know how to justify Zionism to an audience of skeptical, progressive non-Jews.

Justifying Zionism to liberals is not an impossible task. But neither is it intellectually or morally simple. And it will require establishment-minded American Jews to defend principles they have long taken for granted. Of all the BDS movement's consequences for American Jews, that may prove the most significant of all.
