She turned out to be more valuable as a corpse than as a useful idiot

So Kayla Mueller becomes the latest  Westerner to die at ISIS hands.  I must admit I was moved by the eloquent statements of family members, and charmed by the photographs I saw on TV and social media.

Now it turns out she was just another Israel-hating mischief-maker in the wrong place at the wrong time:

Kayla Mueller was a member of the International Solidarity Movement (ISM) who spent at least two years working with that terrorist support group. She was involved in demonstrations against Israel in Sheikh Jarrah (part of East Jerusalem) after a 20 year-long court decision recognized their rights to homes they were chased from in earlier wars launched by the Arabs. She also participated in demonstrations to interfere with the IDF demolishing the homes of terrorists and suicide bombers.

Just as with Rachel Corrie, the press tries to paint Kayla as a selfless volunteer helping poor Arab refugees. She may have even helped some injured Arabs in refugee camps. But don’t be fooled where her sympathies laid; she was working to support the goals of Palestinian irredentist/terrorists and to interfere with the IDF on behalf of terrorist groups. As an ISM activist she was a tool for the worldwide jihad.

A letter she wrote which appears on the ISM’s website describes the usual ISM claims of atrocities that never occurred, but were fabrications worthy of Pallywood.

First, she lived and rioted with other ISM activists with an Arab family that refused to vacate a home they were squatting in after a legal case that took 20 years established it was stolen from the Jewish owners.

She wrote propaganda letters for the ISM website:

“Just the next year in 2009 Ashraf’s brother, Bassem Abu Rahma, was participating in the demonstration and was attempting to communicate with the IDF soldiers telling them to stop shooting the steel-coated rubber bullets as an Israeli activist had been shot in the leg and needed medical attention. Not soon after an Israeli soldier illegally used a tear gas canister as a bullet hitting Bassem in the chest, stopping his heart and killing him instantly,” she wrote.

Of course, the Arab propaganda media outlet of Al Jazeera told the story differently. This occurred during one of the weekly riots in Bi’ilin in the West Bank where the Arabs demonstrate “nonviolently” by throwing rocks at the IDF soldiers as well as incendiaries. Kayla was there with the ISM to participate. Kayla admitted to being present as the weekly riots.

She was also a human shield in support of terrorists. She wrote:

“I could tell a few stories about sleeping in front of half demolished buildings waiting for the one night when the bulldozers come to finish them off; fearing sleep because you don’t know what could wake you. . . . I could tell a few stories about walking children home from school because settlers next door are keen to throw stones, threaten and curse at them. Seeing the honest fear in young boys eyes when heavily armed settlers arise from the outpost; pure fear, frozen from further steps, lip trembling.”

Most settlers are religious Jews. They do not generally engage in violence. The ISM hit on a strategy of accusing the Jews in Judea and Samaria of what the Arabs do continually by attacks on Jews: throw stones, attack school children, destroy produce etc. Another ISM strategy is to try to disable Israeli security tactics. One of the newer tactics is to try and suggest when the IDF uses tear gas to avoid lethality in controlling weekly Arab rioters, the gas is really deadly and must be stopped altogether. The real reason for this inversion about tear gas is the Palestinians and their ISM lackeys hope they can make it impossible for the IDF to control the weekly riots such as in Bi’ilin riots, Kayla was a part of.

“The smell and taste of tear gas has lodged itself in the pores of my throat and the skin around my nose, mouth and eyes,” she whined. “It still burns when I close them. It still hangs in the air like invisible fire burning the oxygen I breathe. When I cry tears for this land, my eyes still sting. This land that is beautiful as the poetry of the mystics. This land with the people who’s (sic) hearts are more expansive than any wall that any man could ever build. Yes, the wall will fall. The nature of impermanence is our greatest ally and soon the rules will change, the tide will turn and just as the moon waxes and wanes over this land so to the cycles of life here will continue. One day the cycle will once again return to freedom.”

Freedom? For who? The Palestinians are setting up another Arab dictatorship or theocracy. Arabs who are Israeli citizens are free, but Kayla wanted the Palestinian-state-to-be from the “river to sea” as a good ISM activist. Her writings suggest the classical thought processes of pampered American student “radicals” and “revolutionaries” who can’t get enough of supporting dictatorships and terrorists overseas as liberation movements, the complete opposite of what they are.

Didn't see this part last night on television.  Truth isn't worth much if it's not the entire truth.
