Israel and The Sin of Expulsion
The Implications and Consequences of Expulsion for the Jewish People
Received this email from a local list;
Haim Ramon (of all people) asked a good question on the radio yesterday – how come the supposed dozens or hundreds of rock throwing “hooligans” weren’t arrested on the spot?
Clearly, there were people throwing rocks, but having served in both the army and MAGAV here, and from conversations I’ve had with American cops and soldiers, I can vouch for the fact that anybody lifting a hand against a cop is immediately dealt with in the strongest of terms.
Ambulance Driver Claims ‘Seriously Injured Policeman’ a Media Lie
Excerpts;
“An Efrat resident working as a Magen David Adom ambulance driver claims that media claims that a policeman was ‘seriousy injured’ during the clashes in Amona last Wednesday are completely false.”
“‘I transferred the only so-called badly injured policeman from Hadassah Har HaTzofim [Mount Scopus] to Hadassah Ein Karem …’ [the driver said]”
“‘His injury was a bad cut under the eye and he was transferred because Ein Karem has plastic surgeons and he needed their services. All the other police injured that I saw had minor cuts and bruises. None had broken bones that I am aware of. All the injured protestors I saw had broken bones, legs and arm injuries, and head wounds. A lot of blood. The atmosphere was that of a terrorist attack with the prevalent undercurrent that this time the attackers were Jews.'”

State Destroys Amona But Tolerates Illegal Bedouin Villages
Excerpts;
“Last week, Israel destroyed the town of Amona, claiming it was set up illegally. Yet the state refuses to enforce demolition orders against hundreds of illegally built houses in the Arab sector.”
“Knesset members from the National Union party are planning to visit a number of illegal Bedouin villages in the Negev tomorrow, in order to dramatize the extent of the government’s double standard in relation to Jewish residents in Judea and Samaria.”
Excerpts;
“Doubts regarding the circumstances of Knesset Member Effie Eitam’s injury Wednesday during the evacuation of the illegal West Bank outpost of Amona are growing, Israel’s leading newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth reported Sunday.”
“Eitam’s spokesman said in response that ‘police are in panic following the criticism from the Left and the Right over the unprecedented violence exerted against civilians and Knesset members in Amona and, moreover, choose to cast false and ugly accusations against those who were injured.‘”
Excerpt;
“The Israeli First Amendment holds that Jewish traitors and Arab terrorists may call for the destruction of Israel, may cheer terrorists and suicide bombers, and may endorse anti-Semitism – all as protected speech. But making any statement about the Oslo process with which Yossi Beilin would not agree will get you arrested as an inciter; and going to a protest against Olmert’s war against settlers will get you beaten to a pulp by the police and hospitalized.”
