Peace Options for Israel
by Steven Shamrak
There are several commonly known solutions to the Israel-Palestinian conflict:
1. Two-State solution – Israel and a new state of Palestine. It will not stop terror attacks against Israel. Quite the opposite, they will increase with more sophisticated rockets and weaponry. The two-state solution is the enemies’ first step towards their one-state final solution – end of the Jewish state!
2. Palestinian autonomy – under Israel or Jordan supervision. Neither Israel, nor Jordan want it.
3. One-State solution – Israel absorbing all the enemy population and creating a suicidal demographic misbalance.
4. Jordan is Palestine – moving all fake Palestinians to Jordan. It will make Jordan a ‘Palestinian’ terror state, as 60% of Jordanians are already claiming to be ‘Palestinians’.
5. Palestine state – destruction of Israel. This is the option all Jew-haters wanted to see in 1947, when seven Muslim armies attacked the newly created Jewish state, and they would still like it to succeed.
None of these options have worked or will ever work!
The intentions of the Fatah/PA/PLO/Hamas have never been to achieve their independence, rather eradication of the Jewish state and removal of all Jews from our land.
We also must remember, and many have forgotten or do not want to know, that Judea, Samaria, and Gaza are part of Eretz-Israel – Jewish ancestral land! Even Jordan, according to the League of Nations mandate, belongs to Israel and the Jewish people.
All the options above have failed because they require agreement and co-operation from the PA (Fatah, the PLO and Hamas), as well as Jordan. How has it worked so far? Anti-Israel international players like the UN and the EU, as well as some governments of the US, have never missed an opportunity to condemn Israel, and they will not allow or agree to any settlement of the conflict which would bring peace to Jews.
There is another solution – The Sinai Option!
It has been consistently overlooked and ignored by Israel and the enemies of the Jewish state. This solution does not require any approval from Egypt or so-called Palestinians. The only requirement for its successful implementation is for Israel to have self-respect and determination to execute it. The government of Israel must ignore the influence of foreign governments who have never had the best interest of Jews in their hearts.
“The Sinai Option” – is relocation of all hostile enemy population from Jewish land to the Sinai Peninsula, and letting them establish their own independent state or autonomy under Egypt. As an independent political entity, it will be held responsible for any hostile military or terrorist attacks against Israel. It is the only plan that has a chance to succeed in bringing peace to Jewish in Israel and to reunite the Jewish lands!
The plan can be implemented humanely and gradually under the supervision of the international community, or it can be executed swiftly by Israel unilaterally when an opportunity presents itself. Israel needs a government willing to implement the SINAI OPTION!
Food for Thought: by Steven Shamrak
Since 1947, international anti-Semites have been systematically undermining the legitimacy of the Jewish state. In 1922, the British illegally ceded 82% of the land designated for the Jewish state – Trans-Jordan and the Golan Heights. It is painful, but not surprising, to see how deeply anti-Semitic the world still is. Using the ‘Poor Palestinians’ as a cover, the UN (‘Ugly Nazi’), and usual Jew-hating suspects in Europe and America are still denying Israel the right to exist in peace on the Jewish ancestral land, which rightfully belongs to the Jewish people even in accordance to the modern international law. It is never enough for the enemies of the Jews until they achieve their objective – destruction of Israel.
Zionism is the Jewish
National Independence Movement.
Your support is appreciated.
The US is quietly working to deploy an international stabilization force (ISF) in Gaza as early as next month, starting in areas under Israeli control. It is claimed that a lot of countries have expressed interest in contributing and US officials are currently working out the size of the ISF. Although, the ISF would not fight Hamas! (False clams – not many countries are eager to participate! Why would Israel need it? It would be the same as UNIFIL – which did nothing to stop Hezbollah in Lebanon. Those countries that have not rejected the plan stated they won’t disarm Hamas.)
Arabs don’t like One-way Rafah Crossing
Foreign ministers from the UAE, Egypt, Jordan, Indonesia, Pakistan, Türkiye, Saudi Arabia and Qatar voice deep concern over Israeli statements about one-way access at Rafah, rejecting any displacement of Gaza residents. (Destruction of Israel, and keeping conflict going is their aim. They do not care about “poor Palestinians” in Gaza, who live in tents and winter is coming.)
The cabinet voted to grant official status to 19 illegal outposts in Judea and Samaria, including two that were vacated 20 years ago under the Disengagement Plan. The Interior Ministry Smotrich hailed the move for “promoting de facto sovereignty in Judea and Samaria”, and preventing the establishment of a Palestinian state there.
When ‘Journalists’ are Terrorists
A new study has found that at least 157 of 266 Palestinians labelled as journalists and killed in Gaza were operatives or affiliates of Hamas and Islamic Jihad, highlighting how terror groups embed media workers in propaganda and military activity. (How many journalists does this little strip of land need? There is a shortage of journalists in Sudan and DR Congo! Journalists, not Hamas ‘operatives’, are needed to cover genocide in Sudan and massacres of Christians in Nigeria.)
Secular Israelis Light Chanukah Candles
Vast majority of secular Israelis, 92%, light Hanukkah candles. It emphasizes that Hanukkah remains not only a religious holiday, but also a cultural symbol that unites Israeli society. It is a holiday that is celebrated not only because of its religious significance, but also because of the values it represents, including Israeli unity, inner freedom, and spiritual courage.
Despite Gaza militia leader Yasser Abu Shabab’s death in an internal dispute within the force he led in Rafah, local clans and armed groups say they intend to continue operating at full strength against Hamas. A phrase now circulating in the Strip – “There will be no mercy for Hamas members. Not today, not until their last day.” Across Gaza, there are several armed groups seeking to topple Hamas.
UNRWA does not Pay Its Bills to Israel
Israeli police raid the UNRWA compound in East Jerusalem and replace the UN flag with the Israeli flag. The operation “was carried out by the Jerusalem Municipality as part of a debt-collection procedure. This follows a series of warnings and preliminary measures regarding an accumulated property tax debt of approximately 11 million shekels ($3.4 million), which has been unpaid for a long time,” the spokesperson added. In late 2024, Israel’s parliament passed laws to ban UNRWA from operating in Israel and to prohibit Israeli officials from contact with the agency. According to the IDF, 450 terrorists were employed directly by UNRWA. The UN Office of Internal Oversight Services confirmed that nine UNRWA workers took part in the Oct. 7 atrocities.
Muslim States don’t want to Help Their ‘Brothers’
Foreign ministers from the UAE, Egypt, Jordan, Indonesia, Pakistan, Türkiye, Saudi Arabia and Qatar voice deep concern over Israeli statements about one-way access at Rafah, which they said could allow the transfer of Gaza Strip residents into Egypt. They are rejecting any displacement of Gaza residents.
Quote of the Week:
“The reality is clear and painful. The blood of the victims is on the hands of the Australian government. Since October 7, instead of standing firmly and unequivocally alongside the State of Israel, the only democracy in the Middle East and the frontline of the free world against jihadist terrorism, the Australian government has chosen a policy of weakness, restraint, and appeasement.” – Israel’s Ministry of Diaspora Affairs – The terrorist attack in Australia is tragedy, but hopefully it is a ‘wakeup call’ to all leaders of the Western democracies.
The Jewish National Goal
by Steven Shamrak.
Many Jewish groups, organizations and individuals are actively involved in signing petitions, writing letters and monitoring anti-Semitism worldwide. These are very important activities, but they all are missing direction.
Jews must unite behind the most important objective – the Jewish National goal: “Jewish people have the right to live in peace on all Jewish ancestral land”. Only by uniting behind the National Goal will Jews have the chance to survive the modern, internationally orchestrated, anti-Jewish onslaught!
This is the only goal that is worthwhile to pursue. It is the right of the Jewish people and must be pursued regardless of a political affiliation and external factors such as the Arab intentions to destroy Israel, and international anti-Semitism! It is the national right that the Jewish people have dreamed about for 2000 years! Therefore, regardless of the political affiliation of any Jewish group, political party or individual, communist or capitalist; Orthodox, Secular or Atheist – all of them can support and be united behind this goal. And it would not contradict their ideology.
It is impossible to achieve anything without setting an objective. We need to revive, re-ignite and be clear about the Jewish National Goal and aspirations. We cannot afford to waste any more time. Our enemies declared their intention clearly, recently and in the past. Our ambiguity is just strengthening them and inflaming their hate!
Jewish national aspirations are not against Arabs or Muslims. It is about the identity and rights of the Jewish people. The International community has done everything possible to deny Jewish people the achievement of our destiny. The time has come to take control of our own destiny!
The useless internal political bickering has to be stopped. The Jewish National Goal must be the main priority and motivation for all Israeli politicians, Jewish people, and organizations around the world. The personal ego has to be put aside. This idea is the only one that can unite the Jewish people.
History is full of examples of a great number of people who became idealistic and enthusiastic when they aspired to achieve seemingly, unattainable goals. They were unstoppable and pursued worthwhile goals with zeal.
Jews have this goal embedded in the Jewish soul. It would be more natural and easier for Jews to support the creation of the Jewish state on all Jewish lands. On the contrary, it is unnatural and self-destructive to impose on Israel the agenda of our enemies and the duplicity of their supporters!
