Rivlin: If Elected, I Won’t Prevent Barghouti’s Release

Excerpts;

MK Ruby Rivlin, who will apparently face Minister Shimon Peres in the upcoming election for Israel’s next President, says he won’t stand in the way of a government decision to free murderous terrorist Marwan Barghouti.

It appears that the Knesset will choose from between MK Rivlin (Likud) and Deputy Prime Minister Peres (Kadima) when it elects Israel’s 9th President this coming July.

Rivlin, who served as Knesset Speaker from 2003-2006, met over the past few days with a delegation of foreign ambassadors and delegates in the Knesset. He told them that though he objects to an early release for arch-terrorist Marwan Barghouti, he would not – by refusing to sign a pardon – veto a government decision to free him. read more

Gush Etzion Municipality to Honor Former Disengagement Defense Minister Mofaz

moshe

Commentary;

Gush Etzion Mayor Shaul Goldstein has apparently buried or subordinated his principles (if he had any in the first place), in awarding and glorifying Transportation Minister Shaul Mofaz, former Defense Minister during the August, 2005 expulsions of Jews from Gush Katif and 4 Shomron towns. Goldstein argues that Mofaz is receiving an award because of his refurbishment of Efrat Junction and because Gush Etzion is asking him to “double the lanes leading to Jerusalem.” This seems a definite case of distateful political glorification; Mofaz’s calling in the “debt”: the payoff for merely doing his job. read more

While Syria smells blood, Jewish blood and prepares for war, the Olmert Yudenrein regime casts national security and the national wellbeing to the wind in it’s mad dash to spin surrender, to spin convergence, in whatever disguise, at all costs. MB

Report: Syria Deploying Thousands of Rockets

Excerpt;
“‘We have noticed that in recent months Syria has deployed hundreds, possibly thousands, of medium and long-range rockets along the border (with Israel),’ one Israeli security source said. ‘Many of the rockets are hidden in underground chambers and in camouflaged silos, which make them very difficult to locate,’ the source said.”

War Now, Better Than Greater Disaster Later

Dr. Aaron Lerner (IMRA)

“The Olmert team appears to be no more the wiser in its approach towards the ever worsening situation in the Gaza Strip.”

“Yes, it was foolhardy to think that retreating from Gaza would advance peace.”

Excerpts;

Israel paid the cost in Lebanon for “ceteris paribus”, the simplifying working assumption a generation of withdrawal advocates have employed in order to grossly understate the dangerous nature of their policy recommendations.

All other things were hardly equal. The Arabs also made moves on the board. read more
