Post-Election: Can the Nationalists Emulate Herzl?

Column One: The Father of Post-Modern Zionism

Excerpts;

IN SPITE of the Israeli media’s best efforts, Zionism did not die on Tuesday. Although the formation of Kadima strengthened the Israeli post-Zionist Left, it is impossible to view the election results as a mandate to implement Kadima’s policy of mass expulsions and military retreat from Judea and Samaria.

The nation is split in half between Left and Right. The parties that support capitulation won 54 seats and those that oppose capitulating won 50 seats. read more

Official Result: Hamas Wins — But What’s it Matter Who Won?

Here, Barak of the IRIS Blog adds commentary to that of Steven Plaut in asserting that the masquerade and make-pretend games that recent Israeli regimes have played with the people are over, at least for the present.

However, if the people don’t get tough and show the politicians, in no uncertain terms, that the charade is over and that we, the Jewish people, will no longer complacently fall for the spin which a Regime puts on good-guys/bad guys among the Arab enemy, the next governing regime will dress up a new set of good-guys/bad guys to sell to the gullible.

The Metamorphosis of Ehud Olmert

Excerpts;

“The change in Olmert began to surface shortly before he left his position of mayor of Jerusalem in late 2002, when he was running again for the Knesset.
