Eretz Israel is our unforgettable historic homeland...The Jews who will it shall achieve their State...And whatever we attempt there for our own benefit will redound mightily and beneficially to the good of all mankind. (Theodor Herzl, DerJudenstaat, 1896)

We offer peace and amity to all the neighbouring states and their peoples, and invite them to cooperate with the independent Jewish nation for the common good of all. The State of Israel is ready to contribute its full share to the peaceful progress and development of the Middle East.
(From Proclamation of the State of Israel, 5 Iyar 5708; 14 May 1948)

With a liberal democratic political system operating under the rule of law, a flourishing market economy producing technological innovation to the benefit of the wider world, and a population as educated and cultured as anywhere in Europe or North America, Israel is a normal Western country with a right to be treated as such in the community of nations.... For the global jihad, Israel may be the first objective. But it will not be the last. (Friends of Israel Initiative)

Nakba Protests (videos)

Outside the White House.  Note the presence of Israel-demonisers from Occupy DC and from CodePink, who like other hypocrites of their ilk have no qualms about venting their spleen on Press TV (ever heard of Iran's brutal treatment of the Bahai, gays, dissenters, and women, guys?)
:

In Sydney, a Muslim woman talks into Press TV's microphone of "these Satanic Israelis who are causing all this injustice in the world"; note how Greens State parliamentarian David Shoebridge, an inveterate foe of Israel, also has no qualms about talking to the Iranian propaganda channel despite Iran's disgusting record on human rights:


And on the other side of Australia, in Perth. a young woman leads the vicious chanting (hat tip: reader Shirlee, who also sent this link to pix of Brisbane's rally, apparently bigger than last year's).

For the corresponding demo in London, seemingly the most vociferous and hate-filled of the bunch, see here

    1. Ian, I sent the photos and videos on the same evening of the event. Also the Perth and Brisbane ones too.

      Maybe you and/or Daphne can find the Melbourne and Adelaide ones. Like the previously too they were last Friday. I don't have the time to spend and they are 'passed on'

    2. I had a quick look, there's a few facebook pics around but I couldn't find them on the actual FB page, so hard to tell what the date is.

      This is the only one on a page, but if you look carefully on the upper RHS, the banners have scissors, so I think it's actually a budget cut demo and they're misrepresenting it as Nakba Day (est.1996).

      Nothing for Adelaide.
