Israel and The Sin of Expulsion

Kassam-Proof Roof Armor Approved For Use

Excerpt:

“A new armor that will protect roofs against Kassam rockets has been approved for use in buildings located in range of Kassam rocket attacks …”

Commentary:

Arik Sharon has yet again abrogated his solemn responsibilty for the welfare of the Jewish Nation he “leads.”

Regarding this armor; this sounds very reminiscent of the material that several former residents of Gush Katif told me about. The government instructed them to have it installed on their roofs at their own expense. Many of the former residents defiantly refused to have it installed on their roofs. And now, it seems that the Sharon Regime is spinning the same trick on residents of Ashkelon, S’derot, etc. read more

MK Eitan: Publish Results of Sharon’s Post-Stroke Tests

Excerpt;

“Likud MK Michael Eitan has called for the publication of the results of tests undergone by Prime Minister Ariel Sharon after he suffered a stroke last week. ‘It is of less interest to know what his red blood cell count is,’ stated Mr. Eitan. ‘It is much more important to know if and what damage has been caused to the prime minister’s intellectual functioning as a result of the stroke.’” read more

Excerpts:

“According to sources close to Moshe Feiglin, recently defeated in Likud party primaries by Binyamin Netanyahu, Feiglin had not initially intended to run for a Knesset seat. However, moves by party chairman Netanyahu to have Feiglin ousted from the Likud have convinced the Manhigut Yehudit(Jewish Leadership) faction leader that he should offer his candidacy.”

“According to the sources, Feiglin had intended to lower his profile after the primaries and influence the party from outside the Knesset. Michael Puah, a Manhigut Yehudit director, was to run for a Likud parliamentary seat in internal elections, as Puah is a known figure among Likud members.” read more

“A teenage girl taking part in the outpost building said that ‘We are going up to the outposts because this is the Land of Israel. This is not a battle on someone’s house. This is a battle on homeland territories and on the Land of Israel.’” read more

No More Self-Denigration

Excerpts:

“You can take the Jew out of the ghetto, but apparently, you can’t take the ghetto out of the Jew. This is the sad lesson we have learned repeatedly in the last few months.”

“Thinking about this, I was reminded of Menachem Begin’s account of the re-establishment of the Jewish homeland after 2,000 years in exile: ‘Out of blood and fire and tears and ashes a new specimen of human being was born, a specimen completely unknown to the world for over eighteen hundred years, the Fighting Jew. That Jew, whom the world considered dead and buried never to rise again, has arisen. For he has learned that ‘simple truth’ of life and death, and he will never again go down to the sides of the pit and vanish from off the earth.’” read more
