Hamas TV: Disengagement Key to Israel’s Destruction, by Ezra HaLevi (Israel National News)

Excerpts;

Hamas-controlled television is broadcasting a statement by the group’s late leader Ahmad Yassin several times a day saying Israel’s withdrawal from Gaza is the key to the destruction of the entire Jewish state.

Yassin’s statement was made in 2005, in response to Ariel Sharon’s announcement of an Israeli withdrawal from Gaza:

“Sharon said yesterday that ‘Nezarim [Israeli town in Gaza Strip] is [like] Tel Aviv.’ Today he says: ‘The day is near when we will leave Gaza.’ That’s it, it’s lost, Tel Aviv is gone. They are defeated, they have no words left.” read more

The Sefer Torah Recycling Network, which has seen to acquiring, restoring and placing 11 Sifrei Torah in needy locations over the past 12 years, announces that fund-raising to cover purchase and restoration of a Sefer Torah for placement in Yishuv Adura is in it’s final phase.

We thank all of those who have donated thus far. Tizke L’Mitzvot! We now seek generous donors to cover the remaining $1,000. read more

“Olmert was happy to lie to the public and claim that Abbas had agreed to end the rocket attacks on the Western Negev, he knows full well that he won’t.”

Excerpts;

Last November 26, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert ordered the IDF to withdraw its forces from Gaza. Sounding oddly triumphant, Olmert announced that he had reached a cease-fire with the Palestinians. The strangeness of his statement became apparent when just hours later Sderot absorbed yet another bombardment of rockets from Gaza. read more

Israel Can’t Do Business With Terrorists, by Ehud Olmert (Wall Street Journal Monday, June 3, 2002) Courtesy of IMRA

“If anyone in Israel still had faith in Arafat and his Palestinian security services by October 2000, the Arab violence that commenced that month put it to rest forever”: Ehud Olmert

Full Text;

State Department envoy William Burns’s return to the Middle East promoting the American-backed regional peace summit tragically coincides with the resumption of the daily Palestinian suicide bombings. As Israeli civilians are being murdered in cities all across the Jewish State, the Palestinian leadership is once again damning these new peace initiatives to failure. Terrorism is still part of their tactical plan. read more
