An Authentic Jewish Mission Statement according to Biblical Sources.

 WE oppose destruction of any settlement  or outpost in Judea and Samaria

VeShavu Banim Ligvulum and the Jews in the Diaspora need to return to their borders (encourage Aliya etc) and partner with the Jews in Judea and Samaria to make this a reality and not  lipservice.

 The relationship between the Jews and Eretz Yisroel is like a marriage.  It is sacred and Hashem has Chosen Am Yisroel.  Eretz Yisroel is  the Promised Land.  Any suggestion that we are willing to share the Land is a violation of our sacred relationship.  Only when we truly appreciate our exclusive relationship that was sanctified with the giving of the Torah at Har Sinai  will there be rejoicing in the cities of Yehuda and Yerushalayim.

Let us focus on zikui Harabim, making the majority of Jews worthy of the Land. If the majority of Jews couldn't care less and show that they are willing to give it away,  then as a Nation we are not worthy of the Land.  That is why reaching out to the major religious Jewish Organizations is so critical because they are the key to the masses.  If the organizations fail to help us mobilize our brethren it makes our job much harder.  Since Kiruv, outreach  has become popular, once we are bezrat Hashem  successful in uniting the religious Jews, we will then have a strong network that will  reach out to the unaffiliated Jew to also claim entitlement to the Land of Israel.

The Message of Shavuot !

Vayichan Sham Yisroel Neged HaHar.  At Matan Torah "Yisroel encamped (singular) there facing the the mountain".  The word Vayichan, "encamped" is written in  singular.  The reason according to Rashi is because our hearts were united as One! 

The Rabbanim have issued a ruling that one should obey orders to destroy settlements.
