Many Arabs Worldwide Celebrating Fires In Israel (Updated)

The big story from Israel at the moment is the large brush fires in the central and northern regions of Israel, which are so serious (and made worse by the heavy wind we are currently experiencing), that Israel has requested overseas help to fight them. Arson has been suspected with at least some of the fires. They have forced thousands of Israelis to be evacuated from their homes, extensive property damage, and tens of people suffering smoke inhalation (including toddlers and children).

But don’t expect sympathy from many Arabs around the world, as evidenced by the fact the fires are one of the top trending topics currently on Twitter (اسراييل_تحترق#) – and not because they are expressing their condolences (Hat tip: Decatur)

Here is just a sample (with text auto-translated from Arabic)

You can view them all here.

Of course, I am sure there are many Arabs worldwide not celebrating the fires and even sad about them, but they are not the ones trending this topic on Twitter.

Besides their hatred of us, what these celebratory tweets also show is how little they care for the Arabs and Muslims in Israel. After all, they are also well and truly in harms way.

Also, it just goes to show you how little they really care about this land.

Update: There is also a hastag in English #Israelisburning. Same deal.

  1. I noticed a number of the tweets invoked God as imposing this punishment on the wicked Jews, as they see it. It’s good to know that having a God-centered life providing meaning and purpose in their lives guides them in expressing just the right sentiment at times like these.

    Maybe the wild fires are not so much God’s will as they are a result of poor forest management by the Israeli government. Did you know that more than half the trees planted in Israel die before they reach full maturity? A dead tree provides a lot more fuel to a wildfire than a live tree does. I suspect the Jewish National Fund is contributing to the problem of over-planting in the wrong areas by continuing to promote the “plant a tree in Israel” campaign in remembrance of a lost loved one.

    1. Even if your hypothesis is true, Jim, the subject of this article is Arabs/Muslims rejoicing over Israel burning, not the cause of the fires.
      It’s quite telling that you ignore this cruel hatred, and instead look for a way to somehow blame Israel for the fires.

      1. As I see it, the truth will set you free. Just because I don’t join in the chorus of voices justifiably criticizing these hateful sentiments doesn’t reveal much of anything, really. When people are called out for their disgusting behavior by 16 people before me, I don’t feel compelled to become the 17th to chime in. An important point is being missed regarding the causes of the wildfires and it is important not to just ignore it.

        1. The truth is that Arabs set forest fires in Israel, and that Arabs/Muslims/anti-semites worldwide are celebrating.
          In this context, your morally relativist view that Israel is somehow equally to blame for the fires because its supposed “poor forest management” is irrelevant. It’s a desperate need to somehow see both sides of the conflict as equally “guilty”, and frankly, it’s sickening, especially coming from someone who would be thrown from a rooftop by Hamas for his sexual orientation.

          1. Those are your strained interpretations of my words. You really don’t know me well enough to have any real understanding of my motives and my character. We’d both be better off if you just skipped over my comments in the future. I’m willing to have a genuine conversation with people of good will, but your pathetically loaded interpretations of my words make that next to impossible.

            1. I think I’m spot on. The fact that can’t even refute my observation is testament to that.
              So now you want to control what I read and don’t read, and which comments I reply to? That’s not how it works, Jim.
              You’re not willing to have genuine conversation – I left you a link refuting the smearing of Jeff Sessions the other day – not only could you not refute it, you didn’t even read it, instead choosing the coward’s way out by claiming the source was not “legit” enough.

              1. Have it your way, I’m a coward, an anti-Israel internet troll, a liar, etc. Why on earth would you want to have a conversation with someone like me, anyway? Leave the moderation of comments to someone who knows how to do it, the owner of this blog, Aussie Dave. Better yet, you could start your own blog and never have to see any of my comments in the future. Fair enough?

                1. Don’t put words in my mouth – I never said any of those things.
                  I’m going to call you out on your comments whenever I see fit. That’s called free speech. You, in turn, are free to refute anything I say. So exercise your rights, and stop playing the victim here, snowflake.

    It is too crowded in coastal areas: Israel will from now on concentrate on building in Judea and Samaria.

  3. Those who set the fire on land they so claim, celebrating the fire they started, deserve not to live amongst our people… All water resources sent from Israel’s infustructure to those who celebrate, should be turned off, to water out the fires they’re celebrating. We must exile entire families of those who were involved sending them to Gaza or Jordanstine. Also removal of their citizenship if Israeli Arab…

    1. Lol but don’t you have a wall, and the Arabs are on the other side of the wall, but yet you have a lame excuse to say they shouldnt live in that land meanwhile PALESTINE IS THE ONLY LAND THAT ACCEPTED YOU WHEN KNOW ONE WANTED YOU DURING THE HALACAUST, NOW THIS IS A HALACAUST PART 2 BUT FROM YOUR GOD THE GOD THAT PROMISED YOU THIS LAND PROMISED YOU THIS FIRE, YET YOU BLAME IT ON ARABS, that is how closed minded you are

  4. These arabs who think of rejoicing over Israel. Remember this promise from God he that bless Isreal I will bless and he that curse Israel I will curse. The nation of the jews will abide forever. God says every enemy of Israel will be destroyed forever for I the Lord God will fight for them.

  5. Also remember that the scriptures don’t lie for it also says that in the last days Damascus will be burnt and destroyed. Thru the ages many have tried to destroy the jews but today they are more alive on this planet. God has chosen this place to demonstrate His power. They are by no means greater than others but its God will to use them for His purposes. JESUS was a jew so if you hate them you hate Him as day runs until night catches every prophecy givem in scriptures must be fulfill whether we choose to believe it or not.

  6. The Arabs aren’t doing anything, why don’t you be clear like you always are, you say GOD PROMISED YOU THIS LAND, NOW SAY GOD PROMISED YOU THIS FIRE, BECAUSE THE FIRE CAME FROM GOD NOT BY HUMANS, IT’S AMAZING HOW THEY KEEP BLAMING ARABS, THEY BUILT THE WALL, THE ARABS ARE ON THE OTHER SIDE WITH MILLIONS OF CHECK POINTS BUT YET YOU BLAME IT ON THE ARABS INSTEAD OF THE GOD THAT PROMISED YOU THIS LAND WITH THE FIRE LOL

    1. How badly does it piss you off that no matter what you do Israel doesn’t fall? Through the bombs, the stabbings, the fires and it survives and thrives. There’s no better way to remind Jews that they are Jews and they are strong than by trying to cut them down. Every time you attack Israel you just make it stronger.

  7. You can rejoice on Gaza bombing but now we can’t rejoice on Israel burning, we rejoice on the ones who rejoiced on Gaza bombing, we don’t wish this on everyone only the ones that rejoiced GAZA BOMBING, ONLY ON THOSE WHO DENY BASIC HUMAN RIGHTS, MEDICINE SUPPLY, WATER SUPPLY TO PALESTINIANS, ON THOSE WHO KEEP OPPRESSING PALESTINIAN CHILDREN AND WOMEN AND THE ELDER, ON THOSE WHO DON’T WANT AN EQUAL STATE, ON THOSE THAT DON’T WANT TO LIVE SIDE BY SIDE LIKE WHITES/BLACKS, ON THOSE WHO MASSACRED EVERY PALESTINIANS CITY STARTING FROM DER Yasin, on those who don’t love Jesus, on those who want to continue ethnic clensing, on those who want to eliminate Jesus, and Mohamed followers, on those who denying calls to prayers for MOSQUES and so on
