Five days ago, this blog cited Olmert’s promise to Shas that “there would be no freeze to construction in Jerusalem, Ma’aleh Adumim and Beitar [Ilit].”

The Haaretz report excerpted below confirms this blog’s assertion that Olmert’s “promises” are as worthless as spent toiletpaper or plug-nickels. The bottom-line; is Shas and its religious leaders part of the problem or part of the solution? MB

Commentary;

Tucked deep inside the Haaretz news website and inaccessible to anyone looking for it from the front page or from the opinion page,
the Haaretz editorial below, author unnamed, echos what David Horovitz wrote yesterday and which this blog posted, but in even more stark terms such that one has to wonder how it is that editor David “Wet Dream about the Rape of Israel” Landau permitted it to run. The piece obviously seems to run counter to his agenda.

And beneath the hidden editorial is a more accessable Haaretz piece delivering more of the same message. But the great mystery of life is
how Haaretz could be so stark in now calling for Olmert’s ouster. How does this editorial jive with Haaretz’s standing in the MSM which etrogizes Olmert as long as he remains a “good boy” and gives up everything — including Jerusalem. MB read more

Commentary;

In this author’s opinion, David Horovitz’s piece on Winograd is undoubtedly the most succinct, to the point journalistic commentary to come out of Israel’s msm in recent memory. And it mirrors a point which this blog tried to hammer home; the dire need to deconstruct Israel’s governance, institutions and bureaucracy.

The same old, tired names, faces and modus operendi need to go, need to be forcibly retired from Israel’s governance and their spheres of influence severed; Olmert, Peretz, Peres, Barak, Ramon, Sheetrit, etc., and yes, Bibi, Sylvan Shalom, Eli Yishai and his Shas party hacks too! read more

Commentary;

As usual, the grossly slanted Israeli msm puts a pro-Olmert, pro-regime spin on the Winograd Report by virtue of its headline. But the report itself may not be such an easy spin for regime surrenderists. The key lies in the public’s reaction and whether the Jewish public finally gets its’ collective back up! MB
