Is It True?…How Can That Be?…

New Show/Podcast!!!

Hamas

Recent events leave very little doubt as to the current reality…The US and the Western World have chosen to back the terrorist, jihadist, Islamist ruling power in Gaza…Hamas.

Do Obama friends and leading “Free Gaza” radicals Bill Ayres, Bernadine Dohrn and Jodie Evans have anything to with it?…Maybe not, but a look at who these leading pro-Hamas activists are and who they were gives considerable insight into the motivations behind those pushing Israel to open Gaza’s seaport to Iranian weapons…Hear the facts on this show…

The recent actions of Israel’s so-called Western allies, Great Britain, Australia, Germany and Poland, demonstrate clear support for Hamas…And, as to the European Union, there can be no question…

So, why is this?…Jerusalem Post columnist, Carolyn Glick, gives three possible, plausible explanations…Naivete’, Jew-hatred, or fear…Take your pick…

Plus, Is there a reference to the BP oil spill in the Talmud (Sanhedrin)?…Something to do with Messiah???…

All this and more on “The Marty Roberts Show”…

How Hamas rises in the West

It is not surprising that Obama is siding with Hamas. Here’s why

Reprinted from JWR Carolyn Glick (Jerusalem Post)

Since the navy’s May 31 takeover of the Turkish-Hamas flotilla, Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and his advisers have deliberated around the clock about how to contend with the US-led international stampede against Israel. But their ultimate decision to form an investigatory committee led by a retired Supreme Court justice and overseen by foreign observers indicates that they failed to recognize the nature of the international campaign facing us today.

Peace Activists

The Israel-haters have gotten SO desperate in their hatred that they are claiming that hours and hours of video footage proving that the “Love Boats” were really ships of death…nothing humanitarian at all about them…that the videos are not authentic…pathetic.

Here’s another revealing video. This video footage is from the security cameras on the Mavi Marmara ship itself, NOT from the Israeli Army.

The Mavi Marmara’s security camera recorded a video displaying the “peace
activists” getting prepared to welcome IDF soldiers.

While the soldiers of the Shayetet Naval Special Forces are approaching the
Mavi Marmara ship, the “peace activists” are getting prepared to welcome
them. In this special video recorded by the ship’s security camera, we can
see the way they equip themselves: clubs, pipes, glass and metal bottles.
This was recorded a few minutes before they started attacking the IDF
soldiers in a violent and uncontrolled way.

“Humanitarians” Beating Israeli Soldiers

Here is video evidence of the Israeli soldiers being shot at with LIVE GUNFIRE!!!
It was the Turkish government that said that all of the ships were checked for weapons before leaving for Gaza…Shouldn’t they be held accountable?

And why, in Heaven’s Name, is it taking Sooooooo LONG for the IDF to release these important videos?

And why do all the fools in the world refuse to believe what they are seeing, right before their very eyes?
Can the hatred for Israel and the Jews be SO great? Apparently…YES!!!

Video Release: “They are firing on us with live fire!”

Video Release: “They are firing on us with live fire!”

IDF Spokesperson 01 June 2010 , 21:08

Video shows soldiers on their way to intercepting the Mavi Marmara ship
being shot at with live fire.

During the operation to redirect the Gaza flotilla on Monday (May 31), IDF
commandos boarded the Mavi Marmara ship. On the other five ships which were
part of the flotilla, the interception took place with no violence. When the
soldiers attempted to board the Mavi Marmara, activists on board attacked
the soldiers and stole two pistols in a prepared attack.

In this footage you can hear the radio exchange between soldiers on their
way to the bridge and the IDF ship. The soldiers report encountering live
fire and serious violence.

On Tuesday (June 1) Captain R., a Naval Special Forces commander of one of
the squadrons who participated in the interception of the Mavi Marmara ship,
said in an interview with IDF Radio: “There were terrorists who wanted to
kill us. I cannot explain it any other way. We used every means possible in
order that those who shouldn’t get hurt – would not get hurt.”

Captain R. was stabbed in the stomach and was wounded in his arm. “After I
descended from the helicopter, I was in front of several terrorists and I
cocked my weapon when I saw one of them come towards me with a knife. I
fired one shot, and at that point, another twenty people started coming at
me from every direction. They jumped at me and hurled me to the lower deck.
At the same time, I felt intense pain in my stomach. I saw a knife stabbed
into my stomach and I pulled it out. I somehow managed to get to the lower
level, where there was another mob of people. I, along with other team
members, jumped into the water. The third commando that was with us was hit
in the head and lost consciousness,” he said.

“We came to speak, they came to fight.”

Another naval soldier, who participated in the interception of the Mavi
Marmara ship and sustained a broken arm while under attack by the ship’s
passengers, described how the soldiers were shot at from the entrance to the
ship’s corridor.

“I saw two from my group lying flat on the ground. From the opening of the
corridor they were shooting at them the entire time with live fire, bullets.
We identified a gun barrel, and one of us shot at the guy holding it.
Afterwards we entered and he wasn’t there. About 30 men, they simply came
for war. We came to straighten things out, to speak to those who went
downstairs, but each of us who descended was simply attacked.”

“There were some from my group that were thrown to the lower floor, and the
passengers took their equipment. They jumped to the water as a last resort.
We were told that if they didn’t listen, we should shoot at their legs with
our paintball guns. The pistol was to be used only if we really felt our
lives in danger, which wasn’t expected to happen. It would be extremely
abnormal. But in the end, that is what happened.”

“We came with the intention of stopping the ship and taking it to Ashdod,
and we did not come with the weapons we usually have, we came for something
entirely different.”

Maybe the “humanitarians” on these ships thought that they needed a weapons cache to defend themselves from food and medicine thieves…More likely, they wanted violent clashes with the Israeli authorities…which they provoked and got…

Video Footage!!!

Weapons, including knives, Molotov cocktails, detonators, wood and metal
clubs, slingshots and rocks, large hammers and sharp metal objects. In
addition, gas masks were found, pointing to the prior intention of the ship’s
passengers to use violence against IDF soldiers who would then be forced to
use riot dispersal methods.

Supply of weapons discovered on board the Mavi Marmara

Reprinted from IDF Website

After IDF soldiers succeeded in stopping the attack against them by
passengers on board the Mavi Marmara ship, the ship was brought to the
Ashdod port and arrived in the late hours of Monday evening (May 31).
Flotilla participants were brought off the ship and taken for questioning.

Once the activists left the ship, security forces began a thorough search
and found a supply of weapons, including knives, Molotov cocktails,
detonators, wood and metal clubs, slingshots and rocks, large hammers and
sharp metal objects. In addition, gas masks were found, pointing to the
prior intention of the ship’s passengers to use violence against IDF
soldiers who would then be forced to use riot dispersal methods.

The Mavi Marmara was the last among the flotilla ships to arrive on Monday
to Ashdod. Beforehand, the other five ships participating in the flotilla
arrived. Unlike the Mavi Marmara, passengers on board the other ships
cooperated with the security forces. The removal of passengers from the
ships was secured by Israeli Police special forces, headed by the Yamam
Special Police Unit, in addition to Military Policemen and naval officers
who assisted in escorting the passengers to the security examination site
set up in the Ashdod port.

In this security check, personnel from the Oz Unit of the Ministry of the
Interior waited for the passengers of the flotilla, and verified the
identification of the passengers using their passports. Some of the
passengers were arrested and some deported. Due to the extremely violent
attack by passengers on board the Mavi Marmara against IDF soldiers, these
passengers were detained for questioning at the port.

Among the IDF representatives who arrived to the Ashdod port throughout the
day were Deputy Chief of the General Staff Maj. Gen. Benny Gantz, Head of
the Operations Directorate Maj. Gen. Tal Roso, GOC of the Southern Command
Maj. Gen. Yoav Galent and GOC of the Home Front Command, Maj. Gen. Yair
Golan.
