Only 48 hours left to make your tax-deductible gift


 
  SEND TO A FRIEND SUPPORT ADL
     



Dear david,

Very few years have presented the challenges of 2009. Across Europe, the Middle East and even in the United States we've experienced a rising tide of anti-Semitism, the likes of which we haven't seen in decades. In fact, 2009 is arguably the worst year for global anti-Semitism in my tenure with ADL. 

Just as we have for the past century, ADL will continue to fight back against anti-Semitism and bigotry and advocate for the Jewish people and the state of Israel. But we can't do it without you. With just over 48 hours left in 2009, we must raise $143,000 online to continue critical programming through 2010.

In these times, your gift is more important than you could know. If you have given to ADL already this year, I thank you once again for your contribution and if you have the ability, please consider an additional gift. If you have not yet donated, please take this time to make
a tax-deductible year end gift and keep ADL strong.

Thank you for your partnership and generosity without which our work would not be possible.

Best wishes,
Abraham H. Foxman

JINSA Report #952 We Are Fighting a War Against Terrorists and the States that Harbor and Support Them

JINSA Report #952
December 29, 2009
We Are Fighting a War Against Terrorists and the States that Harbor and Support Them

President Bush was right. There. We said it and we'll say it again. President Bush was right that the war in which the West is engaged is the war against terrorists and the states that harbor and support them. 
 
President Bush's formulation was a sea change from the Clinton Administration's law-enforcement approach that worked to apprehend people and understand the process after the fact. The Bush formulation was also rejected by President Obama, whose Homeland Security secretary's first instinct after the Christmas day airline bombing attempt was to say that "after the incident" the system worked vey well. OK, Secretary Janet Napolitano recanted, but still, she is the one who brought you "man caused contingencies" because she couldn't bring herself to say "terrorism."
 
President Obama remains focused on stopping individuals who "break the law." He has asked for a review of the "terrorism watch list" containing the names and aliases of some half a million persons.
 
A notably liberal columnist in The Washington Post wrote today that, "Our enemy apparently sees its future in places such as Yemen-or perhaps Somalia, a failed state for almost two decades...The enemy's leadership is believed to be ensconced in remote areas of Pakistan...yet the United States will soon have about 100,000 troops chasing its shadows in Afghanistan, where al-Qaeda's presence is now minimal."
 
But the liberal columnist couldn't connect the dots - a common failure among those who don't choose to understand. The connection is that states that do not control their territory and states that hate the West are places that terrorists find haven, money, training, passports and airline flights. Iran, Syria and the Palestinians in both the West Bank and Gaza do it on purpose. Pakistan, Yemen, Afghanistan and Lebanon don't control their territory entirely - and maybe don't want to. 
 
The liberal columnist didn't say it, maybe didn't understand it, and surely wasn't about to give credit where it was due.
 
Al Qaeda was in Afghanistan before, but it left when the United States toppled the Taliban that gave it sanctuary. Al Qaeda was in Iraq, but it left when the United States deposed Saddam and helped the Iraqis build a governmental structure that controls all the parts of the country - without rape rooms and mass graves. The United States has been helping Yemen dispose of the al Qaeda presence that lives in the areas that are relatively remote and ungoverned. According to American military sources in Iraq, Syria has become a haven for al-Qaeda. 
 
This is not a plea to invade any additional countries, but to understand the sources of the problem and determine which countries can deal with it themselves, which ones we need to help and which are-determinedly-our enemies and need to be dealt with as such.
 
Stripping airline passengers is the last stage of failing to address the problem. Looking for one individual in the terrorism watch list database and thinking you can stop him (or her) is ridiculous. We are lucky in the extreme that brave and vigilant people sometimes pop up to stop individuals committing or trying to commit acts of terrorism. We are lucky in the extreme that parents are beginning to come forward to express concerns about their own children. But we will never stop all the individuals who seek to do us harm.
 
That is what the Israelis understood when they went into the West Bank in 2002 to wipe out the Palestinian terrorist infrastructure and reclaim control of the territory from which terrorism came to Israel during the so-called "second intifada." That is what the security fence and checkpoints do. That is what the Israelis understood when they launched Operation Cast Lead against Hamas in Gaza one year ago. 
 
They couldn't stop all the individuals; they had to control the space.
 
That is what President Bush understood. And he was right.

JINSA Report #951
December 29, 2009
The Dangers We Face

It was bad enough that United States agents failed to take seriously the visit by Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab's father, a prominent banker, to the U.S. Embassy in Nigeria to report his concerns about his own son's associates and behavior. It was bad enough that spokesmen for the U.S. government later said the father's concerns, "didn't rise above the level of noise." It was bad enough that after the attempt to blow an airliner out of the sky with more than 200 people aboard was thwarted only by the brave instinct of a passenger, Secretary of Homeland Security Janet Napolitano said that all the security systems worked (a statement she was forced by public ridicule to recant). And it certainly was bad enough that the U.S. government moved first to its default position that Abdulmutallab was a lone actor, not a card-carrying member of a terrorist group. 
 
And it was unfortunate that when President Obama finally made a public statement three days later, the best he could do was note that, "This was a serious reminder of the dangers that we face" and "It's absolutely critical that we learn from this incident."
 
The danger we face is jihadist ideology which glorifies the killing of Americans and other Westerners, and what we should learn is that the "war against terrorists and the states that harbor and support them" was not a figment of the previous administration's imagination.  
 
Because of the insistence of the Obama Administration that the dangers we face are simply individual criminal events, Abdulmutallab has been charged with a federal criminal complaint comprised of two civilian crimes-trying to destroy a plane in U.S. airspace, and bringing a "destructive device" on an aircraft. They are felonies, carrying penalties of up to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $250,000. No mention of terrorism. According to some legal experts, these charges are "place keepers" to allow the government to detain Abdulmutallab while the investigation continues.
 
The implications, however, are immediate and grave.
 
Counterterrorism expert Steven Emerson, interviewed right after Christmas said, "I'd like to first find out who recruited him. I'd like to find out where he got the explosives. I want to get the signature of the bomb, which is now being determined by forensic investigators at Quantico. I'd like to find out who sent him. How he was recruited. Those are all things they may find out, obviously, through the interrogation of him, plus a review of his cell phone records, his travel records, his computers, or laptop if they can retrieve it. Interviews with his colleagues, his friends, or whatever. And now a review of his national security records over the past year to see whether he actually came into the United States ahead of time, as they think he did, to do a reconnaissance mission to determine the feasibility of carrying out such an attack."
 
We would want to know those things as well. But being charged in a U.S. court means that Abdulmutallab is now entitled to Constitutional protections, including the Fifth Amendment protection against self-incrimination. And we are sure that if Abulmutallab doesn't know about those rights, his court appointed lawyer or the ACLU will surely tell him. How much we will learn from him under the circumstances is unclear.
 
We have already learned enough about the young men-from the United States, from Nigeria, from Pakistan-who adopt jihadist teachings as their religious touchstone to understand that it is a mistake to endow terrorists with the legal and constitutional rights of American citizens who violate civilian laws. 
 
The United States and the West are at war and it is that of danger the President should consider himself to have been reminded-mercifully, without anyone being killed.
