America is a great country. It has many shortcomings, many social inequalities … but it’s still a great country, a country full of opportunities, of freedom! Golda Meir, 3/5/ 1898 — 8/12/ 1978 ..
ISRAEL - Hava Nagila ..
It is a dreadful thing to see the dead city. Next to the port I found children, women, the old, waiting for a way to leave. I entered the houses, there were houses where the coffee and pita bread were left on the table, and I could not avoid (thinking) that this, indeed, had been the picture in many Jewish towns i.e., in Europe, during World War II. ..Golda Meir ..
As acting head of the Jewish Agency Political Department visited Arab Haifa and reported to the Jewish Agency Executive (6 May 1948); as quoted in "The birth of the Palestinian Refuge problem revisited" by Benny Morris, p.309/10 of 2nd Edition 2004, citing Protocol of meeting of JAE, 6 May 1948, CZA 45/2
My delegation cannot refrain from speaking on this question — we who have such an intimate knowledge of boxcars and of deportations to unknown destinations that we cannot be silent. Defense Minister, Golda Meir, signing the Declaration of Independence.
Many accuse me of conducting Public affairs with my Heart instead of my head. Well, what if I do? … Those who don’t know how to weep with their whole heart don’t know how to laugh either. Golda Meir.
Peace will come to the Middle East, when the Arabs love their children more than they hate us. Golda Meir.
Any one who speaks in favor of bringing the Arab refugees back must also say how he expects to take the responsibility for it, if he is interested in the state of Israel. Golda Meir.
There were no such thing as Palestinians. When was there an independent Palestinian people with a Palestinian state? It was either southern Syria before the First World War, and then it was a Palestine including Jordan. It was not as though there was a Palestinian people in Palestine considering itself as a Palestinian people and we came and threw them out and took their country away from them. They did not exist. Golda Meir.
It is true we have won all our wars, but we have paid for them. We don’t want victories anymore. We owe a responsibility not only to those who are in Israel but also to those generations that are no more, to those millions who have died within our lifetime, to Jews all over the world, and to generations of Jews to come. We hate war. We do not rejoice in victories. We rejoice when a new kind of cotton is grown, and when strawberries bloom in Israel. Golda Meir.
Golda Meir, age 70, become the fourth Prime Minister of the State of Israel. The third Woman in the 20th Century, to emerge as a leader of a New Nation."If there is any explanation for the direction which my life has taken", Golda said. .."it was the desire and determination to save Jewish children from a similar experience". As a young Girl, Golda witnessed, the anti-Jewish violence in Czarist Russia and were called pogroms. Feeling extreme fear in her heart, mind and soul, Golda watched her Father nail boards across a door in Kiev, to keep Violence out, simply because they were Jewish. As young Woman, Golda knew that her life would be dedicated to her own People. Dreaming in a World and Place, where Jews could live without fear. Golda Meir was born in Kiev, Russia, May 3, 1898, but Emigrate with her Family to Milwaukee, Wisconsin in 1906. Golda and her Family were Zionists, except her Husband. They believed in the establishment of a National Jewish Homeland. In America, Golda learned the meaning and understanding of Freedom. To speak out and aloud without fear of reprisals, about Democracy. On several subjects, that would have landed her in a Russian jail. America offer her a new begining, freedom, safety, excellent education and to be free of fear. Golda got married and moved to Tel Aviv. Illness of her Husband moved to Jerusalem and she had two children. In Jerusalem of Gold, Golda became: Secretary of the Women’s Labor Council. Executive to the committee of the Histandrut. Head of the Labor Federation’s Political department (1940), representing Histradrut at the International Conference. Negotiated transfer of families in British internment camps in Cyprus, to be moved back to Palestine. Golda Meir was one, two Women to sign the Israeli Declaration of Independence, then she said, "After I signed, I cried. When I studied American history as a schoolgirl and I read about those who signed the Declaration of Independence, I couldn't imagine these were real People doing something real. And there I was sitting down and signing a declaration of establishment" ..Golda listened, as David Ben Gurion read out the Declaration of Independence of Israel, saying: "the State of Israel will be open to Jewish immigration and the ingathering of exiles" .. Golda wept tears of joy on that moment, May 14, 1948 and leaders of the young State of Israel signed the Document. A dream of a Jewish Homeland had become a reality, where a Jewish child would never have to known the fear of a pogroms. Golda became Prime Minister of Israel and was living with leukemia on that time, suffered from migraine headaches and phlebitis. Golda's first official Passport from the State of Israel in her hands, flew to the Soviet Union. Golda led Israel though the 1972 Olympics in Munich, several Israeli Olympic athletes had been kidnapped and killed. One year later, October 6, 1973, Israel was attacked by Syria and Egypt. The attack was known as the Yom Kippur War, the greatest crisis of her life. Golda was blamed for not preparing Country: the Government was severely criticized for the fact that the Country had been caught napping by its Arab enemies. Where lives were lost, People were angry and the cost was too much. She blamed herself: "I shall live with that terrible knowledge for the rest of my life,"- Much of the blame was directed at Golda and resigned as Prime Minister in 1974. Reelected and died in 1978, after years (15) struggle, with Cancer. Golda's life ended at the age of 80, but, "She lived a life under pressure that People would find impossible to understand, the strongest Woman to head a Government of that time on Israel and for a long time" ... A very brave woman, Golda Meir.
America is a great country. It has many shortcomings, many social inequalities, and it’s tragic that the problem of the blacks wasn’t solved fifty or even a hundred years ago, but it’s still a great country, a country full of opportunities, of freedom! Does it seem nothing to you to be able to say what you like, even against the government, the Establishment? Golda Meir. America and the World changed since Golda Meir last words, giving oportunity to People from all walks of Life and Colours. Today, the World is fighting Incapacity <me> and the Homoxesuality, to be able to break walls, chains and tabus. Today, myself as a Christian (Rosario), I feel total impotent and ashamed regarding the Lives of Jewish People and what my Religion caused to them. Golda Meir life and what she done for her Country is one of the Millions Of Jewish People that suffer this kind of Racial Descrimination, with years of, "Hate Propaganda, Bullying, Harassment and Intolerance" .. There were not Years, sorry, but Centuries of Hate, towards Jewish Nationals Worldwide. Since, I read the so many Stories of hardships, that Jewish People had to endure in their own hands for Centuries. Starting with the Spanish Inquisition, repercutions, intolerance and racism towards them. Losing Land in the Middle East and the whole wide World, where they are today, in the middle of nowhere and holding their own breath to a small Land (Israel). Christians will send them more Hate towards them, with Palestine People this time and their own Human Shields as a Bambings. I do believe strong, that People Worldwide are misunderstanding the whole charade of Abuse. In which I am not part of the Christian World and out for good. Particularly, I want to speak about, the Second World War and Victims of War. The deaths of more than 6 Million Jewish Victims of War, including Babies, Children and Adults, that perished during the Cold War. Only my God knows ,where I would like to put myself in shame of my Religion. I have not regrets to become Israel Online Ambassadors. One of the Millions voices, to speak on behalf of the Jewish People. During the Second World War, the Jewish People could not deffend themselves and died in the hands of evil. Today, they have everything they need to defend Israel and still molested, to the point to call them names. The Jewish People do not same to win in any way, form or shape. Jewish Children during the WWII. While you and I knows full well, that a small Nation can not produce this amount of Wars, but trying hard the Incitors (Vatican), the World to believe tales. Palestine is the responsability of the Arabs and sitting in a Rich World of Oil, where only a minority get Rich and succesful, the rest are suffering Famine. The Leaders lack of capacity to lead their own Nations, but blame Israel for it. The same spread that Jewish People were living, in the times of Hitler. The same haters, that are produced in Nazi Germany land. To the point that I am not part of any Catholic Religion or Ethos, until the Vatican (A German citizen), sorth their own Problems, differences and make Peace with the Jewish Community and the Whole wide World. While still holding to my Christians believes, where nobody holds my God as a white flag, to start or incite a War. Those times they gone for good, with the Vatican, but not on my Name.
