Katif Expellee Ordered to Expel Hevron Jews

Full Text;

According to Rabbi Elyakim Levanon, the head of the hesder yeshiva in Elon Moreh, one of the soldiers sent to expel Jews from their homes in Hevron on Tuesday was expelled from his home in Gush Katif in 2005. “Is it logical,” Rabbi Levanon asked, “to ask a young man who lives in [caravan city] Nitzan and whose family was expelled to expel people from their homes?”

The general public would agree that the young man should not have been required to participate in the expulsion, Rabbi Levanon said. He called on IDF officials to investigate the incident. If a soldier tells his commander that he is unable to fulfill an order because it goes against his ideals, Rabbi Levanon added, “that is not refusing orders.” read more

PM, Peres Deny Report of ‘Palestinian State Plan’

Full Text;

The offices of Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and President Shimon Peres vigorously denied a report in Tuesday’s left-leaning Ha’aretz newspaper alleging that they crafted a plan to establish a Palestinian state on the equivalent of 100 percent of the land in the West Bank.

“We are not aware of any such plan described in the article,” Olmert’s office said in the most strongly worded denial the office has ever issued. “It is not being considered or discussed. We are amazed by the false report, which was published without asking for a response or checking whether it was true.” read more

Peres and Olmert Prepare to Carve Up Israel on Both Sides of “Green Line (sic)”

.


Despite PMO denials, that aides to President Peres confirm the Haaretz report makes it a good bet that the plan which Olmert denies is on the table. In addition, the credibility of PMO denials is null. For example, remember this classic denial which turned into “convergence, consolidation, realignment” which Olmert still pursues, but under cover of a negotiated Israeli-Palestinian (sic) agreement for a “Palestinian (sic) State.

Etrogization: Israel’s Newest Political Institution

.

Commentary;

Etrogization has become more than political strategy, it has become political institution in Israel. When in trouble; with the police, the attorney general, the state comptroller, a commission of investigation of a poorly fought, poorly managed war, and more — all breathing down your throat, it’s no time for biting the bullet, for taking your medicine, for doin’ your time. It’s no time for facing true justice.

When in heap big trouble, coddle up to those with the power to pursue or quash any investigation — the Left, who controls all bureaucracy, all media and all institutions in Israel. read more
