The murder of the Vatican’s representative in Turkey will not affect dialogue with Islam, Pope Benedict XVI said Friday as he travelled to Cyprus for a meeting with Middle Eastern bishops ahead of a synod at the Vatican later this year. The pope said the death of Msgr Luigi Padovese, stabbed by his Turkish driver Thursday, “must not in

Caroline Glick does a brilliant job of taking stock of where Israel finds itself today and what strategies it ought to adopt to cope with the next two and a half years (at least) of dealing with a hostile government in Washington. For decades two things limited the salience of Jew hatred as a political force in the Muslim world. First, Israel’s reputation as a regional power deterred Arab states from attacking it. And second, the US’s Middle East policy of rewarding states that lived at peace with Israel and spurning those that did not made attacking Israel a less attractive option for most Muslim states. The likes of Iran and Syria were punished for their support for terrorism and their refusal to make peace with Israel. Then too, Turkey’s rise in prominence in the US in the 1990s owed a great deal to its close strategic ties with Israel. Israel’s reputation as a regional power was diminished by its 2000 withdrawal

from south Lebanon and its less than stellar performances in the 2006 war. As for the US, in the year and a half since Obama took office he has fundamentally restructured US foreign policy in a manner that rewards US enemies at the expense of US allies. From Honduras and Colombia to Britain, Poland, and the Czech Republic, to Japan and India to Israel, Iraq and Afghanistan, Obama has treated US allies with contempt and hostility. At the same time, his repeated bids to woo US adversaries have rewarded the leaders of Iran, Venezuela, Russia and others for their aggression. … THIS BRINGS US to Israel’s current quandary about how to respond to the international campaign against it. Israel of course can do nothing to change the potency of Jew hatred in the Islamic world. It can also do nothing to change American behavior. For as long as Obama is president, US foreign policy can be expected to remain on its current trajectory. That is, for at least the next two and a half years, the US will continue to play a destabilizing and hostile role in the region. What this means is that Israel should adopt a strategy that minimizes the international lynch mob’s ability to get close to it and maximizes Israel’s ability to knock the mob off balance. Take for instance the UN Security Council call for an independent investigation of the Mavi Marmara incident. Israel rightly rejected such a UN inquiry understanding that its aim is to diminish Israel’s sovereign right to self defense. On the other hand, on Thursday morning Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman offered that Israel could establish its own judicial inquiry and that there was no reason for international investigators not to be members of the Israeli committee. This idea is ill-advised for two reasons. First by its very nature, a judicial inquiry would place Israel in the role of criminal defendant. And second, given the nature of the international assault on Israel, no international observers or investigators can be given any role in investigating the Mavi Marmara episode. In contrast, Israel could benefit from a domestic investigation of the operational and diplomatic aspects of its handling of the Turkish-Hamas flotilla. It is in these areas – rather than the legal areas – that Israel has failed and must learn the lessons of those failures. Moreover, appointing a committee would buy Israel time in the face of the anti-Israel campaign now sweeping the globe. And as to that campaign, it is time for Israel to launch a counter-offensive. Its representatives at the UN should demand an investigation into Turkey’s illegal sponsorship of the pro-Hamas flotilla. They should raise such protests at every UN forum and continue to protest until they are thrown out of the meetings and then return, the next day to relaunch their protests. The Justice Ministry should issue international arrest warrants against the flotilla’s organizers and participants and prepare indictments against them for

trial in Israeli courts. Israel’s embassies throughout the world should call for their host governments to outlaw organizations involved in the Gaza flotilla movement. No, these Israeli efforts will not change anyone’s vote in any UN forum. But they will place these wholly corrupt institutions on the defensive. For decades Israel has taken for granted that the UN is hopelessly hostile and left things at that. Israel’s willingness to declare defeat has emboldened UN officials. By putting them on the defensive, Israel will force them to devote time to staving off Israeli attacks and so have less time available for initiating new assaults against Israel.

Israel flotilla raid needs international inquiry, says UN chief

Posted on ( כ"ד בסיון ה'תש"עJun, 06. 2010) by Harriet Sherwood, Adam Gabbatt.
Ban Ki-moon suggests panel made up of many states to discover what happened, according to Netanyahu aide
The UN secretary general has called for a multinational investigation of Israel’s raid on the Gaza-bound aid flotilla that left nine dead, an Israeli official said today. Ban Ki-moon has proposed the inquiry could be headed by the former New Zealand prime minister Geoffrey Palmer and include representatives from Turkey – under whose flag many of the ships in the aid convoy sailed – Israel and the US, an official from Israeli prime minister Binyamin Netanyahu’s office said. Ban’s proposal came after Israel risked a fresh wave of international condemnation yesterday by detaining a boat carrying humanitarian aid attempting to break the blockade of Gaza and forcibly diverting it to the port of Ashdod. Israel has said that most of those aboard the MV Rachel Corrie will be deported today. Ban discussed his proposal for an investigation into the first raid with Netanyahu yesterday, the Israeli official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, told Reuters. Netanyahu plans to convene senior cabinet ministers today to decide whether Israel should take part. Israeli leaders have spoken publicly about setting up an internal inquiry with foreign observers into the interception of the Turkish-flagged Mavi Marmara last week. A statement on the UN’s website said Ban held telephone discussions with the prime ministers of Turkey and Israel on “options for moving forward with the investigation called for by the United Nations security council”. Last week, the council called for a “prompt, impartial, credible and transparent investigation”. Five days after the botched assault on a six-boat flotilla ended with Israeli troops shooting dead eight Turkish activists and one US citizen, naval commandos boarded the MV Rachel Corrie in international waters about 20 miles from the coast of Gaza.

Yesterday’s operation was mounted despite growing calls for Israel to ease significantly its siege of Gaza. The US, Israel’s staunchest ally, pointedly repeated that the blockade was “unsustainable and must be changed” – a call Netanyahu again rejected. Israel said it had met no resistance in stopping the 1,200-tonne Rachel Corrie. However, Greta Berlin of the Free Gaza Movement, an organisation behind the flotilla, said passengers and crew had four times refused to accede to Israeli demands to voluntarily divert to Ashdod, resulting in the raid. “There’s no way that 20 people are going to resist a fully-armed force,” she said. “The fact that Israel boarded a civilian boat in international waters is a violent act.” She expected that the 11 passengers – including the Nobel peace laureate Máiread Corrigan – and nine crew would be treated “with kid gloves. The world is watching”. There had been no contact with the boat since early yesterday, she added. Tomorrow, Britain will say £19m in aid will be given to refugees in Gaza. The money, to be spent on healthcare, education and other services, will be announced by the international development secretary, Andrew Mitchell. It will go to the UN Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA), on which about Jewish Webring

Mavi Marmara was repatriated. It coincided with a warning from the UN’s commissioner for human rights, Navi Pillay, that Israel’s embargo was illegal. “International humanitarian law prohibits starvation of civilians as a method of warfare and it is also prohibited to impose collective punishment on civilians,” Pillay said. According to Israeli military accounts, commandos boarded the Rachel Corrie – named after an activist crushed to death by an Israeli bulldozer in Gaza in 2003 – from naval vessels alongside rather than winching troops from helicopters as happened in Monday’s operation. The boat, carrying medical supplies and construction materials, was towed into Ashdod. Israel said it
