Will Olmert Regime Back Down on Givat Ze’ev, Stiff Shas?

moshe

.
Commentary;

There is a type of “convergence” of several major stories of this time into one;

Olmert, facing pressure from “the nations” coupled with self-hatred for Jewishness and overwhelming lust for perpetuation of his prime ministerial power, will back down on Givat Ze’ev just as sure as he backed down on mounting a credible invasion of Gaza, just as he backed down on connecting Ma’alei Adumim to Jerusalem, just as he invaded Lebanon hodge-podge, not to win, in July 2006. read more

Philadelphi Corridor, International Troops in Gaza, Yesha, … and Jerusalem?

IDF Considers Retaking Philadelphi, by Yaakov Katz (Jerusalem Post)

Commentary;

The above headline carries a gross misconception. IDF doesn’t shave, let alone retake an area vital to Israel’s security without approval, however tentative and hesitant, by political echelons [strong emphasis on political.]

Just as Olmert, Barak and their lackies waffle repeatedly regarding a “possible” Gaza invasion and energy sactions, so too, expect a lot of waffling and equivocation regarding the security of the Jewish people which necessitates retaking of the Philadelphi corridor. read more

Olmert Offering Gimmel Same Rubber Funny-Money as Sharon Did

moshe

.

Commentary;

Back when Gimmel joined Sharon’s coalition upon Shinui’s leaving, with their (UTJ’s) inclusion enabling the expulsion, their joining was to be temporary pending certain considerations. Well it became permanent and the money they were promised by the Sharon regime never materialized following their abstentions in the actual Knesset voting for the expulsion.

Now, as Avigdor Lieberman and Yisrael Beiteinu threaton to leave the government due to Olmert’s “negotiating” of “core issues” with the PA, Olmert, as Sharon did in the months before expelling our brethren from Gush Katif, is working to lure Gimmel into coalition with Kadima to enable convergence and abandonment of Jewish land by offering them the same rubber, funny-money which Sharon never delivered 3 years ago. read more

Parsha Bo: Finding the Emunah to Break Out of Apathy and Fear’s Box

Moshe Burt

Parsha Bo is the one which, for me, annually relates to that crazy tune which played back “in the Old Country” a couple of decades ago, “Does Your Korbon Pesach Lose It’s Flavor Tied to the Bedpost Overnight?” (Actually, the real title to the song was “Does Your Chewing Gum Lose It’s Flavor on the Bedpost Overnight?”)

Over the years, this author has opened with this nutty parody of mine because it cuts right to the very heart of our Parsha. That is the Mitzvot of taking the Korbon Pesach, applying the da’am on Jewish doorposts, the going up from Mitzrayim (Egypt) to “…a land flowing with milk and honey …” and the first mitzvah commanded of the National entity (B’nai Yisrael), the Kiddush HaChodesh — the sanctification of the New Moon and the relevance today of these mitzvot which relate to emunah (belief in) and yirat (fear of)Hashem. read more

Olmert, Livni, Barak Regime Bungle National Defense With Destructo Diplomacy

moshe

.

Commentary;

Just as Olmert boasted that the summer 2006 Lebanon debacle was a boon for “convergence, realignment, consolidation” or whatever other synonyms he chose on whatever day, Dr. Aaron Lerner’s weekly commentary decries Olmert’s recent Annapolis boasts. Olmert’s latest so-called “peace” efforts “presenting Israeli withdrawals as a gain rather than sacrifice” and his bogus assertions that “Israel has no choice but to accept a final status deal at any price” are part of the regime’s destructo “diplomacy” which only further emboldens the murderous Islamic enemy.

Parsha Vayigash 5768: Elusive Jewish Unity and The Boiled Lobster

moshe

.

By Moshe Burt

Parsha Mikeitz records the whole affair between Yosef and the brothers when they came to Mitzrayim to buy food and were accused by the Viceroy of being spies. We learned how after hearing their story and family history, Yosef demanded that they bring their youngest brother to him and incarcerated Shimon as insurance that the brothers would indeed return with Binyamin, their youngest brother. We learn that in the middle of Parsha Mikeitz, with the imprisonment of Shimon, the brothers recognized and attributed their predicament to the sin they had committed earlier by throwing Yosef into the pit and then selling him to the Mitzriyim. Yosef heard and understood their conversation and left their presence to cry silently. (Perek 42, posukim 21-24) read more

Israel’s “Protexia Class” and it’s Trap Laid for the Jews

moshe

.

Commentary;

Eldad is right. There is only one way to evade this trap. But, regretfully Moshe Feiglin is NOT the head of Likud and there is NO OTHER LEADER capable of bucking the collective Israeli MK syndrome of
“glue on the seat” lack of principle, lack of profile in courage.

It is left for us, the people. The “Ukrainian Model” of 24/7 and bringing Israel to a screeching halt at all levels. This is the only thing which will compel both the toppling of Ehud Olmert’s “protexia class” governing crowd and drastic changes in the methods and mechanics of governance in Israel. MB read more

Yom Kippur: Unity, Brachot and the Jews; Kohanim to Mankind — Redux

moshe

.

By Moshe Burt

The Mussaf portion of any prayers; Yom Tov, Rosh Chodesh, Shabbos represent the essence, the main point of that day.

On Yom Kippur, the essence of the service, the ikar is the avodah of the Kohen Godol. So much so is this the case that the Mussaf service centers around the order of the Kohen Godol’s service in the Kodosh Kodoshim (the Holy of Holies in the Beit HaMikdash). The service includes all of the preparations which the Kohen Godol makes prior to the service, the clothing he must wear at each step of the avodah, the number of times that the Kohen must bathe himself prior to each change of clothing and before each step of his service, the drawing of lots determining which goat is for Hashem and which for The Mountain of Azazel (the goat designated by lot to bear the burden of death to rectify B’nai Yisrael’s sins) and more. And by virtue of our being Hashem’s “most favored nation”, The Kohen Godol is to the Jews a paradigm of Hashem’s blueprint of what the Jews are to represent to the other nations of Mankind. read more

How Long Will Successive Regimes Cloak Their Hatred for Jewish Heritage in Bogus Catch-Phrases, Euphemisms and Rationales?

moshe

This author spent this past Shabbos with other members of Shul in Hevron. In what has become an annual trip to Hevron, the city of our roots, the place where our Patriarchs; Avraham, Yitzchak and Yaakov are buried with their wives; Sarah, Rifka and Leah, we endeavor to put ourselves in the proper mindset in advance of the Yom HaDin — Rosh Hashana. Below are some thoughts to contemplate as the Chagim draw closer.

Before Shabbos and during Shabbos afternoon, we were taken on tours and shown various locales in and around the Jewish section of Hevron where Jewish communities have been or are being established, property having been perfectly legally purchased from previous Arab owners and yet, these purchases agreements are contested by the politically agendized and protexia regime, the leftist, elitist Israeli “justice system” and the leftist, elitist, good-old-boys protexa Israeli bureacracy. read more

Peres and Olmert Prepare to Carve Up Israel on Both Sides of “Green Line (sic)”

moshe

.


Despite PMO denials, that aides to President Peres confirm the Haaretz report makes it a good bet that the plan which Olmert denies is on the table. In addition, the credibility of PMO denials is null. For example, remember this classic denial which turned into “convergence, consolidation, realignment” which Olmert still pursues, but under cover of a negotiated Israeli-Palestinian (sic) agreement for a “Palestinian (sic) State.
