I am embarrassed to be an Arab
Fred Maroun October 8, 2015, 8:02 pm
I have long resisted saying this, but the ongoing Arab violence in
Jerusalem has pushed Arab idiocy beyond my capacity for tolerance. I now
need to say it and to say it publicly: I am embarrassed to be an Arab.<
br />
From the start, we have refused to accept the existence of one tiny
Jewish state. We fought that state tooth and nail using all the venom
and anti-Semitism that we could muster. We isolated and mistreated our
own Palestinian siblings so we could use them as tools against the Jews.
We have not relented. We have not shown an ounce of compassion,
humanity, or even smarts. We made the destruction of the Jewish home our
signature cause. We made hate our religion. When will this nonsense stop?
Even some of us Arabs who have the privilege of also being Israeli have
not learned to behave like civilized people. We dismissed, threatened,
and silenced Mohammad Zoabi, one of our own, because he dared profess
love for his country and revulsion towards terrorists. We have
demonstrated in support, not of our own state, Israel, but in support of
the terrorists who want her destroyed.
Those of us who are able to accept Jews as the brothers and sisters that
they are, are few and far between. I can count on the fingers of my
hands the honorable Arabs who take such a stand publicly. The rest of us
are an embarrassment, the plague of the Middle East, and a blotch on
humanity.
We created Hezbollah, Hamas, Al Qaeda, Daesh, and scores of other
terrorist groups. We also created generations of tyrannical
dictatorships across the Middle East. Some of those dictatorships are
the best we can show for in a world that sees us as leeches incapable of
building democracies or even economies.
Jerusalem belongs to the Jews, not only because it is rightfully theirs,
but also because we don’t deserve any of it. Those of us Arabs who live
in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza, would long ago have been deported if
Jews behaved like us. Yet we keep pushing and pushing, hoping to break them.
The Jews will not break. They will not break in Jerusalem or anywhere
else because they are much better than us. We will continue to wallow in
our own victimhood complex while the Jews thrive, and this, my fellow
Arabs, is all that we deserve.
