NYT: African Al Qaeda Terrorists Invoke Palestinian Conflict As Battle Cry
2019-02-23
The New York Times: doing the propaganda work that the jihadis can’t. Those lads and lasses do love their frissons.
[Jpost] The report correlates Israeli diplomacy with the cause of Death Eaters throughout Africa.
The highly trained Times journalists are confusing marketing with bottom line conviction.
Al Qaeda Death Eaters in Africa are invoking Israel’s conflict with the Paleostinians as a new battle cry and as motivation for a string of attacks on the continent.
Uh huh. If so, they are really, really bad at accomplishing their stated goal of changing that reality, given that they’re missing their ostensible target by an entire continent.
Following Al Qaeda attacks in Kenya, in which 14 were killed, and Mali, in which 10 were killed and 24 maimed, affiliates with the terrorist organization cited "the Paleostinian cause" as a motive.
I somehow don’t remember that, but then my memory is dreadfully porous.
The New York Times

...which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize...

writers Dionne Searcey, David M. Halbfinger and Rukmini Callimachi deliberated whether the attacks may have been related to the US embassy move in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem seven months prior. Several organizations including Al Qaeda condemned the US for the move.
Why, then, were there so many attacks before the move?
The report stated that the "suffering of the Paleostinians" was an "animating cause" for Al Qaeda. It detailed biographies of the late Osama bin Laden
... who is now beyond all cares and woe...
, founder of Al Qaeda, which report that he cried watching news coverage of displaced Paleostinians who had been forced off their land when he was an adolescent.
And yet early reports about Al Qaeda’s complaints with the world as it is said nothing about the Palestinians, but only about unbeliever American troops in the holy land of Saudi Arabia and suchlike local problems. The Palestinians were only mentioned much, much later. Honestly, you’d think there was no institutional memory of what they’d reported less than two decades ago.
The report insinuated that Israel's treatment of the Paleostinian people is extreme to the extent that it influenced Al Qaeda and may have even had an effect on the actions of bin Laden, such as the 9/11 attack.
Utterly pathetic.
Al Qaeda Death Eaters are outspoken regarding the Israeli-Paleostinian conflict.

"We emphasize and appreciate the high efforts and beautiful words of all the vibrant jihadist work to prevent the Judaization of Paleostine," said a statement by Al Qaeda's leadership mentioned by SITE Intelligence Group who monitor murderous Moslem content online, according to the Times report.
Y’all go on appreciating all those bootless words and efforts, Al Qaeda and New York Times journalists alike. In the meantime the Jooooooos will establish themselvs even more firmly in the place from which you would uproot them.
The report further suggested that Israel benefits from the terror attacks in African countries, as "the violence may serve to advance [Israel's] efforts to make common cause with African regimes, particularly on security issues."
That’s actually true, but it isn’t Israel’s fault the victims of the jihadis look for allies who will help them defeat their attackers.
The Times article claims that Israel has been making strategic, aggressive moves into Africa to chip away at "what had been a reliable bloc of votes against Israel in the United Nations
...the Oyster Bay money pit...
, and flexing its muscles in a part of the world where African solidarity with Moslem nations had for decades mandated rejection of relations with Israel."
God forbid the Joooooos dare fight back in any way against those who would destroy them, including the New York Times.
Israel, according to the report, is involving itself in efforts to prevent Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood, from importing Iranian weapons into the Gazoo strip.
What a shocking idea that is, to be sure.
The article then goes on to explain how Israel's technological advancements would be beneficial for African countries as a sort of trade for their public relations with Israel.
They provide value that the African nations can appreciate.
"Israeli officials can barely contain their glee at seeing the once-solid ideological support for the Paleostinians give way to flexible geopolitics," the report stated.
And the NYT’s journalists, by contrast, do not even try to contain their dismay.
