‘Negotiate Peace, as Was Done at the Madrid Conference in 1991’ (Jerusalem Post Editorial)

“Israelis should return the Golan Heights, with a US security guarantee for Israel that could include an international force on the border, including US troops if requested by both parties.”

Commentary;

The citings of US/Third Party “guarantees” regarding Israel’s security are voluminous and have never worked, never will. Trying to negotiate with an enemy hell-bent on Israel’s destruction and eradication constitutes nothing less than Left’s abrogation of national Rresponsibility. read more

Has Medinat Yisrael Replaced Torah as Main Pillar of Identity?

Why Religious Anti-Zionism Endures, by Shira Leibowitz Schmidt (Jerusalem Post)

“It is important to distinguish between the concepts of ‘Jew’ and ‘Israeli.’ Those who confuse the two only confirm the prescience of the rabbis denouncing Zionism a century ago: The State of Israel has indeed replaced the Torah as the main pillar of identity for many Jews, both in Israel and elsewhere.”

Excerpts;

November 29, 1947 was when the United Nations voted to partition Palestine into Jewish and Arab entities – a decision hailed by many, though not all, Jews and bewailed by Arabs. While the Arabs rejected the establishment of a Jewish state anywhere in Palestine, the Zionists accepted the decision. read more

Gush Katif Farmers Must Give Up Compensation To Receive Land

After 15 months since being forced out of their communities, many Gush Katif farmers still are without permanent land for agriculture.

The farmers, many of whom are in their 60s, also must work the land themselves and may not rent it to others. read more

Olmert and the Saudi Plan: Blueprint for Israel’s Destruction”

moshe

Our World: Olmert’s Saudi Friends, by Caroline Glick (Jerusalem Post)

“The ‘deal’ that the Saudis are ‘brokering’ is nothing less than a blueprint for Israel’s destruction.”

“Olmert will do anything to take the Israeli public’s attention away from his failure in office. And to successfully ‘spin’ the public, he needs the support of the Israeli media.”

“Olmert’s embrace of a new imaginary ‘peace process’ will win him the support of Haaretz and the other radical leftist elements in the Israeli media. These media organs will then work to prevent the opening of police investigations into Olmert’s alleged criminal activities.” read more

PM’s Remarks Anger Soldiers’ Families

Full Text;

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert should talk less and do more to secure the release of kidnapped IDF reservists Ehud Goldwasser and Eldad Regev, Goldwasser’s mother, Miki, told Army Radio on Tuesday morning.

On Monday, Olmert told a group of high school students that Israel had pulled out of this summer’s Lebanon war despite the fact that Goldwasser and Regev had not been rescued in order to save other soldiers’ lives.

If Goldwasser and Regev were still alive, Olmert said, it was better for them to remain captive “a little while longer” than for other soldiers to die in an attempt to rescue them. read more
