L’SHONA TOVA –
5768 – HAPPY NEW YEAR
I
wish you a happy, healthy and prosperous New Year, with peace in Israel and the
world. May all your wishes for yourself and your loved ones come true.
Israel was Indeed the 'Land of milk and honey'. The archaeological team found three rows of beehives in the
apiary, containing more than 30 hives, in the centre of a built-up area that
had been excavated since 1997. Each row contained at least three tiers of
hives, a cylinder composed of unbaked clay and dry straw, around 80 centimeters
long and 40 centimeters in diameter.
IDF Thwarts
Attempt by Fatah, Islamic Jihad to Snatch Israeli soldiers at the Kissufim
Crossing into Gaza. – There is no difference between Fatah and Hamas.
They are all the same blood-thirsty terrorists!
Hamas Refuses Red
Cross Visit Captive IDF Soldier Gilad Shalit. – Arabs ignore
the Geneva Convention. Therefore it is not applicable to Israel’s enemies! Time
to end bogus negotiation and expel enemies from the Jewish land!
Outcry of
Desperation.
The Christian world and top
U.S. Christian leaders are being urged to petition the Israeli government to
immediately halt a massive dig Islamic authorities are conducting on the Temple
Mount – Judaism's holiest site – that is said to be destroying antiquities and
what archaeologists believe is a wall from the Second Jewish Temple. The
Israeli government has barred archaeologists from inspecting the Temple-era
wall, believed to be from the outer courtyard of the Second Temple. The wall
reportedly has been pulverized by bulldozers operated by the Waqf, the Mount's
Muslim custodians. "The Christian people must rise up and stand with their
brethren in Israel and make their voices heard to stop this travesty,"
states an open letter from Israel's Temple Institute, an organization seeking
to promote awareness of the Temple Mount. "We are asking Christians to do
everything possible to petition the Israeli government to halt the Waqf
destruction and have archaeologists immediately inspect the area." (The Israeli government does not respect Jewish heritage
and the rights of her own people! It only responds to public opinion and
pressure from outsiders!)
Food for Thought. by Steven Shamrak
Why is there no ‘Quartet’ to deal with genocide
in Sudan? International hypocrites’ only concern is how to keep oil-rich Arab
countries happy and to profit from the sale of oil. They are playing with the
lives of Jews and Arabs by artificially prolonging the Arab-Israel conflict to
ensure the uninterrupted flow of oil and sale of arms in exchange.
Traitor has Nothing to Say. Prime Minister
Ehud Olmert has broken the long standing tradition of granting interviews
before the Rosh HaShanah holiday. His aides said that the Prime Minister wants
to keep the negotiations with Palestinian Authority (PA) private.
11 Rocket Launchers Found in Gaza. Israel Defense
Forces found seven rocket launchers in northern Gaza Wednesday evening. Four
more launchers were found earlier in the day.
Enemies Within. 1. Haaretz editor and board member Danny Rubinstein does not
retract his categorization of Israel as an “apartheid state” in a statement he
made addressing the UN’s Palestinian Rights Conference in Brussels on his way
to a World Zionist Organization-sponsored speaking tour in Britain. 2. The
Supreme Court turned down a petition by radical-left Peace Now to destroy an
entire Jewish neighborhood. (Self-hating
Jews are
fuelling the anti-Israel propaganda!)
Quote
of the Week:
"It is
inconceivable that we should continue to supply the residents of the Gaza Strip
with electricity, water and fuel, while the citizens of Israel serve as live
targets for their rocket fire." -
Deputy Prime Minister Haim Ramon. - Another empty threat. Israel still continues to
provide the “Life line” to her murderous enemies.
Hamas Opened
Fire on Own Supporters. One person was
killed and six more were wounded a week ago when Hamas paramilitaries opened
fire to disperse a crowd of thousands Hamas supporters, who had been
demonstrating to urge the Egyptian authorities to reopen the sole crossing
point between Egypt and the Gaza Strip, at the border town of Rafah.
What or Whom
does this Israeli Government Protect? The Jihad Islami chief Mohammad al Hindi recently brought
back from Tehran dozens of Iranian and Hizballah artillery experts who are
training their operatives and advising on the development of upgraded,
extended-range missiles. Southern command officers told DEBKAfile: The
government forbids us to take out the Iranian and Hizballah missile experts
recently arrived in Gaza. (No
wonder that many do not want to serve in this government’s army!) Monday, Sept 3, Day 2 of the school year, a Qassam fired
from Gaza exploded between a school and a day-center in central Sderot and sent
a dozen children to hospital in shock.
(When will the stupidity end?)
Arab League
Refuses to Help Iraq Refugees. Arab League
representatives said that they would not provide financial assistance to the
approximately four millions Arab refugees who have fled from violence in
Iraq. Jordan and Syria have absorbed most of the refugees. (Is this an act of brotherly love?)
Israel will
petition UN over Kassam Rockets. Israel will
file an official complaint to the UN over continued rocket fire on Sderot.
Israel's Ambassador to the UN Danny Gillerman said that there was a limit to
Israel's restraint. (Why it was
not done before? For how long do we have to be ‘nice’ with our killers?)
Betrayal in
Progress. Israel's
government has agreed, in writing, to hand over 6,250 square kilometers of
land – Israel’s entire biblical and strategic heartland - to an Arab terror
state. Most of the Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria are to be demolished
and their inhabitants expelled, according to the plan. (Why is the deportation of 450,000 Jews from
their land acceptable, but transfer of Arabs from Israel and Jewish land is
not?)
Confessions of a News
Broadcaster.
by Tamar
Yonah (israelnationalnews.com)
The way in which one writes the news can be very subjective,
while not seeming so to the public. A listener has to be very savvy to
recognize the ways in which a news piece can be used in order to sway their
thinking. Anti-Israel media corporations will broadcast their news with lines
such as: "Israeli occupation soldiers shot at a Gazan hospital killing two
Palestinians...." Let's examine this one line:
First, the term "occupation soldiers" is
subjective and makes the listener already assume that Israel is deserving of
any violence that happens, because they shouldn't be there. Second, the news
broadcast omitted important and vital facts of the story, such as why the
Israeli soldiers were shooting at the Gazan hospital. Perhaps they were forced
to do so because the terrorists were shooting from there in the first place?
Ah, yes, but those facts are not in the interest of the broadcaster's political
agenda.
Then there is the news story saying that Israeli soldiers
killed two Arabs "near" a Jewish community. What they omit saying is
that the two Arabs were trying to penetrate into the Jewish community on a
murder spree, and that weapons and ammunition were found on their bodies.
…nothing has changed. Abbas is the man who earned his PhD
denying the Holocaust. He has a long history of terror involvement, one aspect
of which was finding the funds and helping to plan the mass murder of 11 of our
young Israeli athletes in the 1972 Olympics in Munich Germany. Since Arafat's
death it has really only been a change from Terrorist A to Terrorist B.
The PLO has never changed its charter calling for the
destruction of Israel and it still has the whole State of Israel on their
"map of Palestine." They still teach hatred of Jews and perpetrate
acts of terror against us. The promises they make in English are quickly explained
away in Arabic to their populations. Their signatures on documents, handshakes
and smiles, photo shoots and all the other pomp are just cosmetics. It's like
taking a corpse, applying some beige make up base on his face, rouge on his
cheeks, red lipstick on his cold lips and then proclaiming, "Look how
healthy he looks!" (There
is no ‘Peace Process’! There is a slow and persistent process of undermining
Jewish rights to the land of Israel and an attempt at wearing down Jewish
commitment to Zionist values, using time and constant anti-Israel propaganda
world-wide.)
