Mazuz: An Attorney General Whose Word is Not to be Trusted??
Bloodshed or Compromise, by David Wilder
Excerpts;
Even prior to the ‘deal’, the defense establishment had already begun the process of voiding any possible Arab claims to the former ‘market’. The defense establishment notified the Supreme Court of this plan and added its intention to “weigh leasing the structures to Hebron’s Jewish community.” The actual legal process by which the Hebron Arab municipality was notified of the intentions to void any possible legal rights to the site began prior to the agreement reached between the community and the state. This process was approved by none other than Attorney General Menachem Mazuz himself.

What Olmert Needs to Consider When in D.C., Not Just Addiction to Bosom of U.S. Aid …
Excerpt;
Here’s an assignment for Tzipi Livni’s Foreign Ministry: to make sure that in the next five years, the CEOs of all the Fortune 500 companies, the 100 presidents of the most prestigious universities, the heads of the most important research institutions and key artists and writers visit Israel; and to ensure that they leave here with joint projects, research plans and plots for new novels. It is possible that they’ll need an encouraging word from their congressman to get them on their planes. But Israel has nothing to be ashamed of when it comes to what it has to offer America, especially when compared to its Arab neighbors. And it will benefit from the closer ties to the most developed economy and educational system in the world. Olmert should think about this, and not only about the list of handouts he’ll ask for from Bush, when he goes to America next month.

Commentary;
The fact of the matter is that despite the media spin’s, Olmert’s not having an esy time of it with coalition-building. This author remebers Chaim Ramon’s boast just after elections that Kadima will have a coalition gov’t in place by Pesach. Well fans, the Pesach Seder has come and gone and Olmert is still struggling. It’s not easy when all of the characters are as crooked as the day is long. Dishonesty, duplicity, lack of trustworthiness and integrity cuts both ways! MB

A MUST READ! Dayenu: It Would Have Been Enough
Excerpt;
Dear Friends of Israel:
Like most of you, I am frustrated, angry and depressed over the actions of the Israeli government. We must, however, get over the depression and then use our anger to spur ourselves to greater action on behalf of Israel. EIN BREIRA. In that spirit I offer the following chant or song to sing at demonstrations (slightly abridged from the popular song sung at Passover). Sing the traditional Dayanu, and then the new resistence against the deportation of Jews from Eretz Yisrael Dayanu. Please distribute to your friends for their family Seder this year as widely as possible:..……..With Love of Israel
