“What Trenton Makes The World Takes.”

Those are the words on a New Jersey bridge.

We can amend it. “What Brazil Rejects, NYC Gets.”

This morning, after months of fighting with Brasilia over Israel’s plan to appoint Argentina-born Mr. Dani Dayan as its new Ambassador to Brazil, Israel decided to assign Mr. Dayan to New York City as the new Consul General.

Dayan, to many, is a controversial leader of Israeli settlers who wants a one state solution. Dayan is an advocates of Israeli settlements in the West Bank. For six years he toiled as the chairman of the Yesha Council, the umbrella organisation of municipal councils for West Bank Jewish settlements.

Israel’s Foreign Ministry wrote that, “He will replace Foreign Ministry career official Ido Aharoni, who is completing his term.”

Diplomatic sources say that Brazilian officials were displeased by the way Israel announced the appointment of Dayan before quietly checking with them on whether he would be accepted. Wasn’t seen as very diplomatic. Three months ago, Deputy foreign minister of Israel Tzipi Hotovely said that if Dayan wasn’t installed in Brasilia, that Israel would downgrade its relations with Brazil. Yes, I am sure that scared them.

Dayan plans to “bring about a revolution in Israeli public relations in North America.” He will avoid Brazilian mosquitoes, but I doubt he can even bring about a small flame among Manhattan’s liberal synagogue members.

  • Cornelius Tacticus, the famous Roman historian (who had no love of Jews) and lived from year 56 CE (approximately) to year 120 CE said:

    “Much of Judea is thickly studded with villages, and the Jews have towns as well.
    Their capital is Jerusalem. Here stood their Temple with its boundless riches.”

    ORIGINAL SOURCE OF QUOTE:
    The Histories by Tacitus, The Jews (Book 5), paragraph 8 of 13.

    CONCLUSIONS FROM THIS QUOTE:
    {1} Muslims are LYING when they deny that Jews trace their historical origins to the Land of Israel.

    {2} Muslims are LYING when they deny that Jerusalem is the historical capital of the Jewish state.

    {3} Muslims are LYING when they deny that the Jewish Temple existed in Jerusalem.

    {4} Notice that Tacticus mentioned Judea, NOT Palestine.

    {5} Tacticus never mentioned the Palestinian people, even though he wrote
    much about Jews and their land, because there were no Palestinian people in his time.

    “The dangers became apparent in September 2000 as a Black Hawk helicopter transported me and my combat gear across the West Bank. The previous night, I looked out from our Jerusalem balcony and saw crimson fireworks bursting over the West Bank. Arafat had recently met with President Clinton and Israel Prime Minister Ehud Barak at Camp David and turned down their offer of Palestinian statehood in Gaza, virtually all of the West Bank, and half of Jerusalem.

    The Palestinians were now celebrating the failure of peace.”
