‘Knesset Must Ok Principles Declaration’; But, Note Olmert’s Loophole

.

Commentary;

In the report below, check out Olmert’s fine-print loophole buried on the last lines;

We don’t know if there will be an agreement, what the details of such an agreement will be or if it will be sufficient to bring for Knesset approval.

This Associated Press report on “parlimentary approval” makes that very point;

Mazuz said Olmert qualified that promise by saying that it was not clear the declaration would go far enough to require a vote.

In short, the above quote strongly indicates that Olmert’s loophole is wide enough to drive a division of tanks through, that language of any joint statement or declaration can and will be manipulated such that Olmert would get around presenting it to Knesset for approval. Further, the seemingly vague language would be structured, manipulated and doctored such that Shas and Yisrael Beiteinu would not bolt the government. The teflon Olmert would thus be “home free” to pursue his schemes to further his concessions and relinquishments. MB read more

PA Attempt to Assassinate Olmert: Real or Scam?

.

A few months ago, gunmen affiliated with Fatah, and thus with Pa President Mahmoud Abbas, planned and plotted the assassination of Prime Minister Ehud Olmert.

The Pa is not denying the plot, they seem to only be denying that the gunmen involved were apprehended and later released in typical Pa revolving-door justice style. According to Ynet, “the three… admitted to the plot before they were released.” It is now reported that they are back in custody.

All intrigues and sub-intrigues aside as to why this plot was only divulged to the public months later, it must be obvious that Olmert’s continuance to hatch concessions regarding Jerusalem, Har HaBayit and elsewhere goes far beyond merely national irresponsibility. And that Shas and Yisrael Beiteinu continue in such a government of national irresponsibility is a national, moral and religious outrage! MB read more

Parsha Vayeira 5768: Stark Contrasts Between Chessed and Abject Cruelty

.

by Moshe Burt

Our Parsha opens with Hashem, as we understand, visiting Avraham Aveinu on the 3rd day after Bris Milah, when Avraham was at the height of his pain following the circumcision, as Rashi indicates, “to inquire about his welfare.” (Metsuda Linear Chumash rendering of Rashi on Perek 18, posuk 1)

It’s not like Hashem needed to pay a visit to ascertain Avraham’s actual condition for, Hashem is the Creator, The Master, The Ruler over the world who knows and is aware of everything. And so we learn and gain insight from this first posuk as to the Mitzvah of Bikur Cholim; showing, caring, giving strength and encouragement to the ill by visiting and caring about them. read more

East Jerusalem: Another Hamastan?

.
Commentary;

Once again, Dr. Aaron Lerner of IMRA is on the mark in pinpointing other dangers of making “concessions” regarding East Jerusalem, aside from the obvious and MOST IMPORTANT ONE; that making “concessions” regarding Jerusalem as our eternal and undivided capital, or Har Habayit is as if cutting out the heart of a man.

Recently, this author received a well-worded email which, in part, touched on this precise point;

A body can function in a limited way without certain major limbs, but once the heart goes, it’s all over. Har HaBayit is THE HEART OF OUR NATION. Our most active motions MUST be directed towards strengthening the heart. read more
