Lieberman Beat Netanyahu to Coalition, by Yossi Verter (Haaretz)

Commentary;

To parody Reagan, It’s about politics, stupid. And politics is all that matters to these guys, the people, the Jews, Israel’s security and well-being be damned! Lieberman, Bibi: Birds of a feather; No principles, no ideology and as morally corrupt as the day is long! Wouldn’t it make things kind of interesting if the AG decided to prosecute Lieberman for one or more of the charges being investigated against him. What would that do to Olmert’s precious oalition enlargement? MB 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

Parsha Noach 5767: Contrasting Noach and Avraham Avinu

By Moshe Burt

We read in our parsha that “These are the generations of No’ach: No’ach was a righteous man and perfect in his generations, and No’ach walked with G’d.” (Sefer Breish’t, Perek 6, posuk 9.) The Imrei Shefer comments on the Midrash regarding the words; “These are the generations of No’ach …” that the flood was directly attributable to No’ach’s behavior. According to the Midrash, “he [No’ach]… caused the flood by not protesting against the corrupt actions of the members of his generation.” (Torah Gems, Aharon Yaakov Greenberg, Sefer Breish’t, page 56) read more

The Wall of Shame, by Rachel Saperstein, Neve Dekalim/Nitzan

Received this in an email today. This blog is proud to be the first to post Rachel Saperstein’s most recent offering. MB

Full Text;

Groups of visitors, Jews and Christians, arrived in Nitzan during the Sukkot holiday. I spoke with some groups and my message was one of deep hurt and endless hope.

One group became a sounding board on a plan that shook them, resulting in shouts of anger directed at me. I had stepped on a minefield for I had attacked our sacred Israel Defense Forces. read more

Basketball as Metaphor for the Disengagement, by Orit Arfa (Jerusalem Post)

Excerpts;

Elidad Schneid usually got nervous before major games of the Gush Katif inter-settlement basketball league. As a member of the Netzer Hazani team, the winner of most of the league’s championship trophies, he should have been particularly nervous hours before the tournament final against Neve Dekalim. But he wasn’t. He was too busy planning for another battle scheduled for the same day: the battle over his home. read more

Our World: Prime-Time Blood Libels, by Caroline Glick (Jerusalem Post)

“Israel’s continued silence is a sign that Israeli officialdom has still not understood what the war of images demands of it. The Dura film, like the fictional massacre of Lebanese children at Kafr Kana in Lebanon this summer, shows that victory or defeat in wars is today largely determined on television. To win, Israel must go on the offensive and attack untruthful, distorted images that are used to justify the killing of Israelis and Jews throughout the world.” read more

Lieberman Cedes Demands on Behalf of “National Responsibility”, by Hillel Fendel (Israel National News)

For context; click here.

Commentary;

“It’s All About Iran.” Give us a break. Once again, another corrupt politician renegs on every promise made to voters in exchange for power, in the hopes that Kadima stays in power long enough to kill Likud so that Yisrael Beiteinu replaces it and Lieberman becomes Prime Minister. Once again, what Caroline Glick wrote recently is instructive as to the Lieberman strategy; read more
