Jews Barred from Peace Run to Promote Coexistence Between Muslims and Jews

This is the peace process in miniature. And you can’t have a one-sided coexistence. Appeasing the opponents of coexistence will never bring coexistence.

A unique “Peace Run” initiated by an Australian extreme athlete to promote coexistence between Jews and Arabs in Judea and Samaria was dealt a severe blow Sunday, after the Palestinian Authority objected to the presence of Jewish runners.

A group of six Israelis were asked to refrain from participating in Australian ultra marathon runner Pat Farmer’s Peace Run, as it passed the Jewish communities of Eli and Shiloh in Samaria, north of Jerusalem. The group – which was organized by the Yesha Council in conjunction with Regavim – had coordinated with Farmer’s team ahead of time to ensure that Jews and Palestinians could run together in a true show of coexistence.

However when Ari Briggs, director of Regavim – which advocates for Jewish land rights – arrived along with his group to participate they were asked to stop running after just one kilometer.

Apparently, the news had reached the Palestinian Olympic Committee in Ramallah, which threatened to pull out of the Peace Run if Farmer continued to run with the Jewish well-wishers. Although Farmer was “not happy” about the move, which essentially undermined his campaign, the Jewish group were “politely” asked not to participate.

This is the PLO’s vision of coexistence, a coexistence without Jews.

    On 9/11 the Palestinians danced in the street and handed out candy to their children. Rather than bewail their intolerance and give them billions of dollars in ‘aid’ we should wipe them from the face of the earth.

    At a recent gun show I saw a slightly modified “Coexist” bumper sticker. Under Coexist it said, “You first Mohammed”.

    looks like “running with the camels” will take a while before it’s as popular as running with the bulls

    the future must not belong to those who would insult the Kuffar

    The more Israel placates and pacifies these savages, the more this will happen.

    The more Mooslim terrorist prisoners it releases, the more terrorists will take Israeli prisoners.

    What makes Israel think that after nearly 14 centuries, these animals can be tamed?

      These people got what they deserved. They continued their little run after they were denied entry. That’s like someone trying to appease an enemy with a cake or a gift, getting spat in the face by said enemy, and then coming back to grovel some more. It’s pathetic and sick.

    Farmer is some kind of stupid. His brains are obviously ‘down under.”

    as usual the Palestinians refuse to give peace a chance…

    The only coexistence you can have with the muslims is when they are not breathing. You cannot help these leftist useful idiots, they are nothing more and nothing less than a statistic in the making.

    What part of of “this will never work” could they not understand?
    Next time maybe they should try showing silent films at a home for the blind, or teaching calculus to gorillas…
