Israel and The Sin of Expulsion

“This platform, which proved itself more than once in the past, is made up of thousands of combat troops, combat supporters, and headquarters’ soldiers. Each one requires his own training and attention, but most of all, each one needs a leadership that talks to him or her in the right way, according to rank and position; a leadership that conveys the sense that the ship’s helm is manned by captains that see far into the future.”

“We must rid ourselves of the notion that someone else will fight for us – the Americans, Palestinian leader Abbas, the Lebanese government, or a multinational force. There’s no substitute for IDF action and capabilities, and only the IDF can constitute the security wall around us.” read more

Olmert Secretly Preparing to Relinquish Israel’s Heartland

Commentary;

At this point in time, there is NO BIGGER Story than this one. All other reports (with the exception of the apparent Katsav indictment), i.e., beatings, arrests and harrassments of activists, settlement building freezes and failure to resettle former residents of Gush Katif, Israel’s use of flawed and bogus demographics data, installation of hi-tech ID of Yesha Jews at checkpoints, even discriminatory UPS delivery policies to Yehuda, Shomron, sparse reporting of war news (i.e. stonings, highway shootings, Kassam launchings falling short in Gaza), the consensus of Israeli Arabs, high court rulings, and Israel’s unjust “Justice system,” etc. evolve from this blockbuster, although not surpising story in the making and about to be sprung on the Jews, on dumbed-down brainwashed Israelis. read more

Israel Faces Nuclear Holocaust Warns Gingrich

Excerpt:
Gingrich: “Israel is in the greatest danger it has been in since 1967. Prior to ’67, many wondered if Israel would survive. After ’67, Israel seemed military dominant, despite the ’73 war. I would say we are (now) back to question of survival.”

PM Authorizes Ashkenazi as IDF Chief, By Yaakov Katz and Dan Izenberg (Jerusalem Post)

Excerpts;

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and Defense Minister Amir Peretz released a joint statement Monday night announcing their decision to appoint Defense Ministry Dir.-Gen. Maj.-Gen. (res.) Gabi Ashkenazi to the post of IDF chief of General Staff.

The announcement was made following a rare joint meeting between the two at the Prime Minister’s Office in Jerusalem.

Peretz plans to bring the appointment to the cabinet for approval Sunday after Ashkenazi is approved by a judicial committee headed by former judge Ya’acov Terkel. Ashkenazi will become the 19th chief of staff and the first from the Golani Brigade. He will replace Lt.-Gen. Dan Halutz, who announced his resignation last Tuesday. read more
