Background: In Absence of Continuous Rocket Fire, “Three Monkey Mode” Should Work for PM Olmert, by Dr. Aaron Lerner (IMRA)

Full Text;

In the absence of continuous rocket fire, it should be fairly easy for Prime Minister Olmert’s team to adopt the “three monkey mode” (hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil) towards large scale Palestinian arms build ups exploiting the ceasefire.

If there is only sporadic rocket fire, Mr. Olmert can be expected to agree to extend the ceasefire to the West Bank (thus enabling the Palestinians to accelerate their rocket program there as well) with an eye towards negotiating more Israeli withdrawals without requiring the Palestinians to ever actually collect weapons. read more

Olmert Warmly Received by OU, Ayalon Advises ’Wait on Aliyah’, by Ezra HaLevi (Israel National News)

Excerpts;

PM Ehud Olmert received a standing ovation at the Orthodox Union’s annual convention in Jerusalem, speaking after outgoing Ambassador Danny Ayalon discouraged those present from coming on Aliyah.

Ayalon, who just finished his term as Israel’s Ambassador to the US, stressed the need to unite behind Israel’s officials during these critical times. He also responded to Jewish Agency Chief Ze’ev Bielski’s call for American Jews to immigrate to Israel, saying: “I join Ze’ev’s call for Aliyah (Jewish immigration) from the states – but I have to say, you can wait a while.” read more

Report: IAF Wiped Out 59 Iranian Missile Launchers in 34 Minutes

Excerpts;

The success of the raid was the greatest Israel Defense Forces achievement during the war, and according to Israeli assessments, it prevented Hezbollah leader, Hassan Nasrallah, from being able to carry out his threats and strike central Israel with missiles.

The air attack of 13 July struck the Zelzal and Fajr missiles in the Hezbollah arsenal, both made in Iran. The range of the Zelzal can endanger the Tel Aviv area from Lebanon. read more

US Pressure Prompts Delay of Offensive

Commentary:

In one of the more absurd statements heard among the daily stream of absurdities uttered by the likes of Ehud Olmert,Shimon Peres, etc., ADL’s Abe Foxman has noted this belated revelation which we have known for at least two decades : (MB)

Islamic “Human Wave” Fizzles

moshe

.
Commentary;

Well, the Islamics’ (no distinction between Hamas, PFLP, Fatah, al-Aqsa Brigades; their goals are all the same — the destruction and eradication of the Jews) human wave came up a wee bit short. Hamas policemen “blocked the main road leading to Erez” lest they be embarrassed after their boasts of a human chain forcing its way over the Gaza border with the rest of Israel went bust.

But the big question is; will the political echelon, the too-tired Olmert regime, back the IDF’s continued vigilance or will they, in their endoctrination of the masses as being exhausted from 60 years of conflict, get complacent and cause IDF complacency. Will inculcated complacency cause a surprise that the incompetent Olmert regime will be ill-equipped to properly cope with? MB read more

Stop the Kassams Now (Jerusalem Post Editorial)

Excerpts;

Hamas has once again proven that it is a terrorist organization and proud of it, talks of a Palestinian “unity government” notwithstanding. The question is how Israel will effectively respond to this reality.

After yesterday’s deadly attack on Sderot, Peretz claimed that “terror organizations will pay a heavy price.” Indeed, the IDF has been exacting a heavy price from these organizations in operations of varying scope over the last few months. Yet it is also inescapably true, as Sderot residents have been saying for some time, that if missiles were falling on Tel Aviv or Jerusalem with such frequency, Israel would be acting differently. read more
