After the Media Loses Interest [in Victims of Terror]

Excerpts:

“Ora Cohen remembers in which bus seat she was sitting on Tuesday night, August 19, 2003. It was the right-hand side next to the back door on Egged bus #2, servicing the Western Wall. At a stop she looked back to see a man who appeared haredi jam his fingers into the closing doors. With shocking determination he struggled to force his way inside. Ora refrained from reminding him about derech eretz, – civility – deciding instead to turn away. ” read more

MDA Threatens to Reduce Services in Sderot, North

Excerpts;

“MDA threatened on Thursday morning to reduce its activities in northern border towns and in the Negev town of Sderot in protest against the delays in payment for emergency services in those areas.”

“The group said it was owed around three million shekels.”

Is there any commitment to it’s people that the Sharon Regime keeps? Where’s the reparations and compensation promised “by law” to the Gush Katif refugees? Why have Local Authorities Employees not been paid in months, or years? And why is the Regime now abusing MDA first aid services to terror victims? Does the Sharon Regime even know the meanings of truth, integrity, honesty and principles? MB read more

Kadima Uncertain on Depth of Concessions

Excerpts:

“Ever since Prime Minister Ariel Sharon established his new party Kadima, the polls have predicted that it would gain a decisive victory in the elections. The party’s platform, however, remained unknown. ”

“Only Wednesday, during a faction meeting, Kadima’s Knesset members officially approved the platform’s political chapter.”

“The platform creates a precedent when determining that the expected Palestinian state (which is also part of the platform) will be responsible for the refugee problem.” read more

Kassam-Proof Roof Armor Approved For Use

Excerpt:

“A new armor that will protect roofs against Kassam rockets has been approved for use in buildings located in range of Kassam rocket attacks …”

Commentary:

Arik Sharon has yet again abrogated his solemn responsibilty for the welfare of the Jewish Nation he “leads.”

Regarding this armor; this sounds very reminiscent of the material that several former residents of Gush Katif told me about. The government instructed them to have it installed on their roofs at their own expense. Many of the former residents defiantly refused to have it installed on their roofs. And now, it seems that the Sharon Regime is spinning the same trick on residents of Ashkelon, S’derot, etc. read more
