British-Israeli survivor of Palestinian terror campaigns to end incentivizing Muslim hate and violence

Kay Wilson featured in UK Daily Mail article
On December 18, 2010, Anglo-Israeli pianist, Kay Wilson was giving a tour to visiting Texas Christian, Kristine Luken, 46, of a Judean Hills hiking trail. Muslim men attacked them with knives, slaying Ms. Luken and leaving Ms. Wilson for dead. Ms. Wilson's story of survival during the holiday of Chanukah is nothing short of miraculous.

attempted massacre at the El Al Airlines check-in desk only 10-months after the terror of Sept. 11, 2001. Six people survived being shot or stabbed, but 2 Israeli-Americans were murdered

In this video interview,  Ms. Wilson shares her story and aim of ending Western taxpayer money being paid to the Palestinian governments who offer encourage incentive pensions for terrorism acts against Jews. Kristine, Kay says, was murdered because the Muslims presumed that she was Jewish.



On December 18th, the anniversary of her assault, yesterday, she published the following message from her home in Israel's capital city, Jerusalem:

Kay Wilson addresses young people on public diplomacy
"Seven years ago today, under knife point in a forest in Israel, I learned things they don't teach in college. I am privileged to share what I have learned, (here with a group of young people training to be ambassadors for Israel) and with you now.

1) Until tragedy struck I was oblivious just how fragile life is. Yes, I paid it lip service but had not absorbed it. Now I am fully cognizant that today may be my last day alive.


2) The terror attack revealed that up until then, I thought life was all about me. I mean, terrorism happens to others, but it could never happen to me.

Israel re-arrests 51 Palestinians freed under public pressure for Gilad Shalit

Netanyahu: IDF actions ‘send an important message’; West Bank civilian population ‘beginning to realize’ the consequences of the kidnapping, top defense official says in The Times of Israel by Aron Donzis and Spencer Ho

With no sign of life from three kidnapped Israelis teens six days after their disappearance, the IDF pressed on with its comprehensive West Bank operation Tuesday night and Wednesday morning, arresting 65 Palestinians, 51 of whom were Hamas members released as part of the 2011 deal for captured IDF soldier Gilad Shalit.
The army also raided the facilities of Radio Al-Aqsa in Ramallah and Hebron.
In a statement, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu praised the IDF’s actions.
“The activities of the IDF and the Shin Bet last night, during which Hamas terrorists released in the agreement for the return of Gilad Shalit were arrested, send an important message and are a critical component in a series of operations whose purpose is to return the kidnapped boys, and damage Hamas’s infrastructure in Judea and Samaria,” he said.
Israeli forces have been engaged in a widespread crackdown on Hamas in the West Bank since the kidnapping Thursday night of Eyal Yifrach, 19, Gil-ad Shaar, 16 and Naftali Frankel, 16.
According to the IDF Spokesperson’s Unit, 240 Palestinians, including 180 members of Hamas, have been arrested as part of Operation Brother’s Keeper, and 800 buildings have been searched, including 10 operations against da’wa institutions where Hamas recruits, disseminates information and transfers finances.

“Last night’s activities took place across the West Bank,” a senior military official said. “We operated in Jenin, Qabatia and Samaria, Tzurif, Yatta and Samua. In Jenin there was a little friction during the arrests, but the rest occurred without incident. Additionally, we tested the defensive perimeters surrounding Jewish communities in the West Bank and the security fence as part of our efforts to prevent illegal breaches.
“Three hundred thousand people are under curfew, and after eight years of relative prosperity they are beginning to realize [the implications].”
The military source added that out of the hundreds of thousands of citizens in Hebron, “thousands, each of whom support six or seven family members, possess permits to work in Israel. Because of the curfew, they can’t work, and this has a visible impact on the population. With two weeks left before Ramadan, the population’s preparations for the holiday have taken a hit.”

Home Front Defense Minister Gilad Erdan, a member of Netanyahu’s security cabinet, said that Israel is “well aware” of the identity of the Hamas cell that kidnapped the youths.
“The Shin Bet and intelligence officials are interested in investigating as many Hamas operatives as possible to find any leads on the whereabouts of the boys,” he told Israel Radio Wednesday morning. “The end result of any military operation should be the eradication of the Hamas movement.”
IDF Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Benny Gantz toured the Gush Etzion area overnight, and met with senior security personnel. The senior defense official said the chief of staff signed off on the continuation of activities.
“There is a lot of determination and we learn from arrest to arrest,” he said.
Finance Minister Yair Lapid took to Facebook Wednesday morning to praise the IDF’s efforts.
“It will not stop here,” his message read. “Hamas will learn the hard way, and even if it takes time, we will pursue the organization everywhere, day and night, just when they least expect it. Until they return the boys.”
Although Hamas welcomed news of the kidnapping, and has been held responsible by Israel and much of the international community, officials of the organization have denied any connection to it.

‘Palestinian group carried out Lockerbie bombing’- reports the Times of Israel

Gaddafi may have commissioned attack that killed 270 people 25 years ago, ex-Israeli security official tells Times of Israel, but Ahmed Jibril’s PFLP-GC carried it out, writes David Horovitz 
December 19, 2013

Twenty-five years after Pan Am Flight 103 was blown up over Lockerbie, Scotland, with the loss of all 259 passengers and crew and 11 people on the ground, a former senior member of the Israeli security establishment said he was certain the bombing was carried out by Ahmed Jibril’s Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine-General Command.

The Israeli source, who spoke to The Times of Israel on condition of anonymity, said Israel was “listening in” during the months prior to the December 21, 1988 bombing on preparations for what “we thought was a plan to target an Israeli plane” and that it was “clear that Jibril prepared the operation.”

The comments came ahead of Saturday’s 25th anniversary of the worst terrorist attack ever carried out on British territory, and the worst terror attack on American civilians with the exception of 9/11.

Survivors of the Palestinian terrorist massacre of Jewish athletes say I.O.C. rejected commemorating 40th memorial on TV not merely kowtowing to Muslim pressure, but to advance their own personal business & political interests

Jewish commentator, Debbie Schlussel calls Israel's I.O.C. member, Alex Gilady, a self-interested, traitorous, leftist kapo.

Jewish widow, groups dismiss IOC president's move to honor Munich dead before small group at Olympic Village.  British & American Jews fill void by staging their own tributes.

by Philip Hersh in the Chicago Tribune July 23, 2012
President Obama threw his support behind an online petition for the minute of silence that now has more than 103,000 signatures.

“Yes, we absolutely support the campaign for a minute of silence at the Olympics to honor the Israeli athletes killed in Munich,” said US National Security Council spokesman Tommy Vietor.

IOC President Jacques Rogge of Belgium rebuffed those calls at a press conference Saturday night.

“We always pay deep attention to recommendations coming from the political world,” he said. “We are not necessarily following this advice.”

The IOC’s attitude involves an element of realpolitik. It clearly is fearful of the potential uproar that could follow from the nearly two dozen Arab countries and some two dozen more primarily Muslim countries sending teams to London.

That Israel is a lightning rod for enmity in parts of the world obviously complicates the situation. That is why Mrs. Ankie Spitzer, who has spent four decades as a leader in the effort for a memorial moment during an opening ceremony, is willing to strip such a moment of all religious and nationalistic references.

“You don’t even have to say they were Jews or Israelis,” Spitzer said during a recent telephone interview. “Just tell the world that in 1972, 11 members of the Olympic family, athletes and coaches, were killed.”

Spitzer’s husband, fencing coach Andrei, was among those killed by the Palestinian terrorist group, Black September.

“Ours is not a message of hate and revenge,” she said. “Quite the opposite: we want people to remember, so that this will never happen again."

Beginning a Monday Olympic Village ceremony promoting the idea of an Olympic truce, Rogge surprisingly made a call to honor the memory of the 11 Israelis and then stood in silence for a minute.

"They came to Munich in the spirit of peace and solidarity," Rogge said, according to wire service reports. "We owe it to them to keep the spirit alive and to remember them."

The same news reports said there were only about 100 witnesses to Rogge's action.  . . .

Spitzer (also) found the gesture insufficient.

"This is not the right solution, to hold some ceremony in front of 30 or 40 people," she told the Jerusalem Post. "We asked for a moment of silence at the opening ceremony, not for someone to mumble something in front of a few dozen people."

Israel’s IOC member, Alex Gilady, is among those opposed to having a moment of silence in the London opening ceremony, a stand many in his country find incomprehensible.

Gilady’s rationale is simple: he remembers when Israel was thrown out of the Asian Olympic Association in 1981 and could not get another continental sports affiliation until the efforts of people including Rogge helped Israel become a member of the European Olympic Committees in 1994. Gilady fears a moment of silence will create a backlash endangering Israel’s place in international sport.

“I believe I am acting in best interest of Israeli sport,” Gilady said in a telephone interview. “For me, the most important thing at the moment is that Israel have stages to compete on….I hope the moment will come we can have appropriate commemoration in the Olympic stadium for the Israelis killed in Munich.”

When might that be?

“When we have a better environment,” he said. “When there is peace.”

Spitzer, 66, a Middle East correspondent for Dutch and Belgian television networks, calls Gilady, “the main obstacle.” She has tried to plead the case with Rogge, IOC president since 2001, and London Olympic Organizing Committee chairman Seb Coe, both Olympic athletes.
Guri, the son of '72 Israeli wrestling coach Moshe Weinberg, knows Mr. Gilady led the lobbying on the Int'l Olympics Committee's rejecting of an internationally televised commemoration of the athletes and their survivors on the 40th anniversary of their slaying by Palestinian Islamists. But Gury Weinberg sees both the I.O.C. and Gilady as working to protect their members complicity and personal interests. 

Why the IOC will never memorialize the '72 Munich massacre Fox News.com July 27
"Recently, new information about the Munich Massacre at the 1972 Olympic Games was released by German police as a result of pressure from German investigative reporters. It was reported that the “Black September” terrorists were helped by a Nazi group in Germany to get fake IDs, weapons and access to the Olympic Village.

Beirut informant’s warning of Palestinian ‘incident’ was ignored, then covered up for 40 years, magazine says. by Raphael Ahren in The Times of Israel 
In 1996, I, along with other Munich orphans and three of the widows, were invited for the first time to the Olympic Games in Atlanta. Before the Opening Ceremony, we met with Alex Gilady. Gilady has been a member of the IOC's Radio and Television Commission since 1984 and has been the senior vice president of NBC Sports since 1996.

I have known Mr. Gilady since I was a kid; in fact, I grew up with his daughter. He had been supportive in the past regarding our plea for a moment of silence during the Opening Ceremonies, so we arrived with high hopes. Gilady informed us that a moment of silence was not possible because if the IOC had a moment of silence for the Israeli athletes, they would also have to do the same for the Palestinians who died at the Olympics in 1972.

My mother said, "But no Palestinian athletes died!" 
Gilady responded, "Well, there were Palestinians who died at the 1972 Olympics." 
I heard one of the widows say to Gilady, "Are you equating the murder of my husband to the terrorists that killed him?"

Silence.

Then Ilana Romano burst out with a cry that has haunted me to this day. She screamed at Gilady, "How DARE you! You KNOW what they did to my husband! They let him lay there for hours, dying slowly, and then finished him off by castrating him and shoving it in his mouth, ALEX!" 
I looked at Gilady's face as he sat there, stone cold with no emotion. This man knew these athletes personally. This man led the Israeli media delegation at the 1972 Olympics and saw this atrocity first hand. This man saw my father's dead, naked body thrown out front of the Olympic Village for all the world to see.

Without a hint of empathy, Gilady excused himself from our meeting.  That's when I understood that the IOC wasn't turning us down because of their resistance to politics.  Rather, it was due to the specific politics the IOC apparently still embraces.  Based on its history of Nazi support, greed and the blood on their own hands for inciting the PLO, they would never support Israeli athletes."

Anniversary of '72 Munich Olympics marks 39-years of West's scapegoating of Israel over Palestine; Islamist terror is not a response, it is an historic, supremacist aggression; Stop the U.N. from supporting Palestine over Israel

39-years-ago on this day, September 6, 1972, the world was shocked as Islamist terrorists kidnapped and murdered Israeli athletes at the XXth Summer Olympic Games in Munich, Germany.
















This is an archived video of ABC News' coverage of the "bloody Olympics" atrocity (at which 17 people, including 11 Israelis, were killed), hosted by ABC News' anchorman, Howard K. Smith.

Islamist terrorism debuted to a global public at the Munich Olympics atrocity. But, like the Islamist attacks on NYC's World Trade Towers 29-years and 5-days later, the mass-media has framed (and the public has been led to believe) acts of Islamist terror as a response to some Western (including Israeli) affront against benign Muslims.

The P.L.O.'s Black September terror killings of Jewish athletes in Munich are misunderstood to be a response of a nationalist Palestinian movement seeking for Israel to "de-military occupy" militant Gaza, Judea, and Samaria. On the contrary, Palestinian ambitions are to conquer all of Israel under the flag (and spiritual influence) of Islam (just as al-Qaeda's Islamic imperialism seeks to elevate Islam over Christian, democratic America, and all of the non-Muslim world).

Palestinians evidence their aspiration to conquer all of Israel prima facie of the logos and seals bearing the geographic image of the actual state they seek - the map of all of Israel.

Jihad in Jerusalem: Arab Muslim rams crowd with BMW- 3rd vehicular attack in J'lem since July

A Palestinian Arab resident of Jerusalem rammed his car into a group of Artillery Brigade soldiers at a central Jerusalem thoroughfare late Monday night, wounding 20 of the troops, before being shot dead, police and rescue officials said. Two of the casualties were in moderate condition, while the rest were lightly hurt. It was the third such attack in the city in recent months.

The 11:00 p.m. attack at the city's Kikar Tzahal near Jaffa Gate ended quickly after the Arab assailant was shot and killed by a policeman and one of the soldiers, an IDF officer, police said. The soldiers were on a penitential (Slichot) tour of the Old City.

The area in question is adjacent to east Jerusalem and the Old City of Jerusalem.

The lone assailant, who was driving a BMW, crashed into pedestrians on the sidewalk, where his car came to a grinding halt.

The casualties were rushed to Jerusalem's Hadassah-University Hospital at Ein Kerem, and the city's Sha'are Tzedek Hospital.

The attack comes after two back-to-back bulldozer attacks in Jerusalem in July which left three Israelis dead and dozens wounded.

Police said armed civilians killed the driver. He was not immediately identified, but the wording of the police statement indicated it was believed he was a Palestinian.

The intersection is situated near Jerusalem's Old City at the junction of Jewish and Moslem areas.

In recent months, Palestinians who lived in Jerusalem carried out two attacks within three weeks of each other using heavy construction machinery, killing three people and wounding many others. (Jerusalem Post)
