Taxpayer-funded Israeli govt. authorizes enslavement, rape of Russian girls


The media in the United States won't report on the white slave trade in Israel. If you do a search on Google there are virtually no news reports on the topic from the mainstream media (wonder why?).

The only report that you might consider credible is a report by the University of Rhode Island. The report was prepared about ten years ago. The report says that the problem has been getting progressively worse.

According to the report, stunningly "Israel does not have a specific law against the sale of human beings."

Israel is an English-speaking country. Many of its government officials were educated in prestigious universities in the United States.

Some people might say that enslavement and rape of women is common in Third World countries. True.

But there is one significant difference - the Israelis know better.

The United States government has recently made a commitment to give Israel $35 BILLION of YOUR TAX DOLLARS over the next ten years.

Excerpts from the University of Rhode Island report:
Israel


There are no official numbers regarding the extent of prostitution and the traffic of women in Israel, but there is a general consensus that it is becoming more prevalent. (CEDAW Report, 8 April 1997)

Traffickers and pimps earned US$50,000 - 100,000 a year from each prostituted woman, resulting in a US$450 million sex industry. ("A modern form of slavery," The Jerusalem Post, 13 January 1998)

1,500 Russian and Ukrainian trafficked women have been deported from 1995-1997. (Michael Specter, "Traffickers’ New Cargo: Naive Slavic Women," New York Times, 11 January 1998)

Russian women are bought and sold by pimps in Israel for prices ranging from US$5,000 to $20,000. (Police sources, "'Invisible' Women Shown In Russia's Demographics," Martina Vandenberg, St. Petersburg Times, 13 October 1997)

Women trafficked from Eastern Europe, were stripped and sold naked as slaves to Tel Aviv traders for US$500-1,000. Smuggling, fraudulent documents, collaboration between police and brothel owners are involved. There are routine brutal beatings and sexual abuse. (New York Times 11 January 1998)

Israel does not have a specific law against the sale of human beings. (Michael Specter, "Traffickers’ New Cargo: Naive Slavic Women," New York Times, 11 January 1998)

There is no law related to bringing women from another country into Israel for prostitution. (CEDAW Report, 8 April 1997)

you might want to think twice about linking to a site that is specifically geared toward an almost Nazi-like anti-semitism. (Altermedia is little more than a David Duke sycophant site)

also, none of your cited articles are more recent than 1998, meaning the bulk of your "proof" is close to 10 years old. Do you think that it's possible that in the 10 years since the CEDAW report that Israel has changed it's laws regarding human trafficking and prostitution?

Oops. You're right. I did a brief search and the Altermedia report is all that came up. I did not realize that it was a Nazi-like web site.

The "Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act of 2000: Trafficking in Persons Report 2007" published by the U.S. department of state is a more recent source.

Here are excerpts from the report:

"The Government of Israel does not fully comply with the minimum standards for the elimination of trafficking; however, it is making significant efforts to do so."

"... the (Israeli) government still does not provide forced labor victims with adequate protection services, such as shelter, medical, and psychological aid."

And most disturbingly.
"Israel has not yet reported any criminal prosecutions under its new law for labor trafficking crimes."

Excerpts from above can be seen about 1/5 of the way down the page.

Sounds like not much has changed since the University of Rhode Island report ten years ago.

If the Israel government wants to act like a bunch of criminals fine. That's their business. But why on Earth are we draining our natural resources to support a country that won't even prosecute criminals that participate in the white slave trade?

Do you realize that if US imposed a "moral scale" to any country that we provided financial assistance to we could literally keep every penny?

Please, don't try to defend the indefensible.

What am I defending? Give me a complete list of where the US sends cash, and I could give you a legitimate reason that we shouldn't send it. The fact that you single out one country is the issue that I have with your post.

Please read the first post. There is a significant difference between Israel and the other countries.

Look at how well-educated their Knesset (Parliament) members are:
All Knesset Members Beginning with the Letter A
Many of them have law degrees (i.e. doctor of jurisprudence) from prestigious universities. Their government is very well schooled in concepts such as the Bill of Rights.

Many of the third world countries where the government won't prosecute its citizens for raping and murdering women are poorly educated.

The key difference is, reiterating an earlier comment, - the Israelis know better!

An error of deliberate omission is the same as an act of commission. Deliberate ignorance is no excuse.

There is no defense for their conduct.

I remember seeing a recent article where the Israeli leaders had created a bikini calender with Israeli girls that are currently in the IDF. The intent was to promote the idea that Israel was a happening place so please come for a visit.

Pay no attention to those riots and tear gas canisters....only note the bikini-clad girls wearing gas masks and riot gear.

in the same vein, if anyone imposed some morality scale on us, they'd just cut off all diplomatice ties

The $35 billion US taxpayer commitment is enough reason to single Israel out (if you don't want to consider the fact that many of their leaders have degrees, some advanced degrees, from universities within the United States and due to their education a reasonable person would conclude that they know better than to engage in the slave trade).

The money that the US taxpayers gives Israel dwarfs foreign aid to other countries.


The largest recipients of U.S. aid were:

Israel ($35 billion)
Iraq ($10.8 billion)
Afghanistan ($1.3 billion)
(foreign aid to Iraq and Afghanistan does not count since 1). much of the aid is to repair damage that the US military has done and 2). the US currently occupies both countries.

---------
Sudan ($771 million)
Ethiopia ($625 million)
Egypt ($397 million)
Pakistan ($362 million)
Jordan ($354 million)
Colombia ($334 million)
Uganda ($242 million)
Serbia-Montenegro ($181 million).

The $35 billion is for military aid/equipment a ten year period and is in addition to the money the US already gives Israel.

If you add it all up the US taxpayer probably gives them $10 billion per year.

let's see... 35 divided by 10 = 3.5.

still don't know where you're going with all this, or what point you're trying to make. If you're a David Duke type anti-semite, go ahead, man up, and admit it.

People need to know what's going on in the Middle East before it's too late. That's the purpose of my posting.

If you don't like or disagree with the assertion made in the post refute the message instead of attacking the messenger.

Here, refute the US State Department's 2007 report that says Israel has not prosecuted any of their citizens that participate in the slave trade:

You can call the US State Department anti-semites if you want. They're the ones who said it. All I am doing is reporting on what they said.

The problem is there is no defense for what they're doing. That's why if you want to defend them you have got to attack the messenger instead of refute the message.

I don't think that you've got to be David Duke in order to hold in contempt a country that is receiving massive foreign aid from the United States yet tolerates, and you might even say encourages, the trafficking and rape of defenseless women.

Given the way many Muslim countries treat all their women I assume you would wish to cancel all such aide to these countries as well?

I think you should have read the Country Narrative a little more closely before you cherry picked your comment from it.

During the reporting period, the government conducted 352 criminal investigations of trafficking for commercial sexual exploitation, filed 34 cases in court, and convicted 13 individuals; an additional 43 sex trafficking prosecutions are currently pending. Penalties imposed, some of which resulted from negotiated plea arrangements, ranged from 6 months' to 13 years' imprisonment. In March 2007, the government filed charges against a police officer suspected of complicity in trafficking for commercial sexual exploitation. In addition, Israel cooperated with Ukrainian, Belarusian, Moldovan, and Czech law enforcement authorities to extradite traffickers and break up organized sex trafficking rings.

During the reporting period, the Crime Unit of the Immigration Administration opened 708 criminal cases for fraud and deceit of foreign workers, 77 cases of withholding the passports of foreign workers, and five cases of labor exploitation. Of these, the government filed charges in 10 cases for withholding passports and 43 cases involving fraud by manpower agencies and private recruiters against foreign workers. It is unclear, however, how many of these cases specifically involved trafficking in persons for the purpose of involuntary servitude. The government reported no convictions for involuntary servitude this year, nor did it provide evidence of conducting criminal investigations of manpower agencies for illegally charging recruitment fees, a factor that may contribute to a situation of debt bondage for many foreign workers.

Although the Government of Israel made some improvements in its protection of sex trafficking victims over the reporting period, protection of victims of involuntary servitude remained relatively weak. Victims of commercial sexual exploitation are not punished for unlawful acts committed as a result of being trafficked. The Ministry of Social Affairs and local NGOs jointly operate a shelter for victims of sex trafficking. During the reporting period, police, immigration authorities, and NGOs referred 46 victims to the shelter. Victims in this shelter receive medical treatment, psychiatric and social services, stipends, and temporary residency and work permits. Although the government encourages victims of sex trafficking to assist in investigations and prosecutions of traffickers, it now also allows victims to remain in the shelter even if they are not willing or able to testify. Victims are permitted to apply for a one-year extension to their temporary residency permits on humanitarian grounds.

sorry for the long quotes, but I felt it neccessary to put things in context. Israel could be doing more, that's not going to be disputed, but Volitics position that they are doing nothing is disingenuous and intellectually dishonest. I feel I am right in criticizing the messenger since the messenger seems all too willing to cherry pick quotes from US government websites and also link to sites like altermedia.com.

Since I can no longer see my signature I assume that I have been "Tachy-goes-to-Coventried". I am familiar with this software. The mods know what I am talking about.

Considering the Nazi-like viciousness of the attacks from the mods I assume that this message board is run by a major media outlet and cannot afford to criticize Israel - since the owner or primary stockholder of your media outlet is probably a Zionist.

checkmate? so I finally get you to admit that you're a David Duke anti-semite and you claim victory? I call you on the carpet for cherry picking quotes to back up your already weak case and all you can do is complain about your sig being removed by a "pro Zionist" corporation running Volnation.

I don't think so.

I'm proud to admit that I'm a supporter of Israel, but that doesn't mean that I give them amnesty if they screw up.
