The Bogus Rationalizations Which Lay Behind the “No Military Solution to Terrorism” Canard
.
Commentary;
This author doesn’t owe his parnossa to the leftist, politically correct media, and thus has no qualms about telling like it is.
Firstly, the majority of Israels polled who support, such as what Evelyn Gordon describes in the article below, “an extensive ground operation in Gaza,” lack the fervor necessary regarding this or any issue.
Ehud Olmert, who is easily the most disliked, disapproved of prime minister in Israel’s modern history, remains in office because Israelis lack the backbone, willpower and gumption to act, based on the Ukrainian model, to force him and his utterly and completly corrupt cronies from office and bring to power an upright, honest non-corruptible leadership which will deal forthrightly with the nation’s important issues, partcularly security.

Corruption Corrupts (Jerusalem Post Editorial)
“We must not let ourselves become numb to this unacceptable state of affairs. If a fraction of the allegations of corruption pan out, we have a serious problem.”
Excerpts;
It is distressing that the news that the attorney-general has ordered a criminal police investigation into the actions of the prime minister is of passing interest, an event that is expected to quickly blend into the miasma of investigations, suspicions and scathing reports that swirl around our political leadership.

Succot 5768 — The Redemption: Promise and Fulfillment
.
Having emerged from Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur and, hopefully we have all been inscribed and sealed for a happy, healthy, successful and meaningful year and years ahead, we find ourselves in the midst of Succot.
During Succot, the B’nai Yisrael, as an Am Segula (a nation apart and unique from the other nations), as Hashem’s special, chosen people, visit, bond, and celebrate our special and unique relationship with HaKodosh Borchu.
Prominent in our thoughts during Succot are the Haftorahs which the prophecy of the War of Gog and Magog, Moshiach, the Ge’ula Shlaima (the Redemption) and the rebuilding of the Beit HaMikdash are pronounced. Or, as the expression goes among baseball fans each springtime — right down to the fans of the most hapless MLB team; “Hope springs eternal.”
Tzipi: By What Right Are You Indignant or Feeling Betrayed After Forcing Jews From Their Homes??
.


Commentary
This author penned these sentiments in July, 2006 just prior to the expulsion of Jews from their homes, neighborhoods, lands and jobs. It is a particularly appropriate response in light of Tzipi Livni’s performance in front of the UN today;
We are the front line of Judaism. Our humiliation at rewarding terror would cast all Jews here and in Chutz L’Aretz again as “spineless”. Look for serious Anti-Semitic backlash. And Chas V’Chalila after Jew would expel Jew, expect the Arabs and the world to attack us at will and as we have probably not seen in the past 50 years. We would again be viewed by the world, as we were seen by the Nazis, as spineless, sub-human creatures. Nothing would remain sacred.
Olmert Regime’s Anti-Jewish Revolving Door Penal Code for Islamic Terrorists
.

Two recent blog posts by Barak of IRIS are particularly insightful.
One of the posts relates the absurdity of what has become Israeli’s revolving door penal code for terrorists who injure, maim and kill Jews or those who conspire with terrorists.
The newest crop of arrested terrorists were rounded up during operations in Shechem just before Yom Kippur, thus foiling a planned Yom Kippur terror bombing in Tel Aviv.
As a result of an arrest raid in Shechem on Thursday night, the plot was uncovered during interrogation of the Head of Hamas in Shechem;
