Lawlessness in Judea and Samaria 1.1 SHAME SHAME SHAME!! Updated Links. Ketiva VeChatima Tova!

bs"d

My Dear Friends, Activists, Rabbanim and Media people, amv"sh

Ketiva Vechatima Tova!  Please forgive me if I've insulted or berated you or put you in a negative light this past year or in previous years.  Actually, if you are on my list it means that I consider you to be a dear friend and a lover of Israel.   I don't sent my emails to people that I've given up on. I believe in you.  If I had to defend you in Shamayim, I would with all my heart for all that you have done for the Clal.

 But I'm afraid we need to do more to be worthy..  

Prime Minister Netanyahu is facing a nuclear Iran and a hostile President of the United States of America, Barak Hussein Obama. President Obama seems to be helping Iran to acquire nuclear weapons. Read Op-Ed: CIA 721: Obama, the Pro-Iranian Nuclear Bomb President  by Mark Langfan http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Articles/Article.aspx/12174#.UFKqAo2PVm4

 I hear you asking.   Is now a good time to berate Netanyahu for what is happening in Judea and Samaria?  Robin, You have bad timing. 

My answer is Yes!  It is precisely the right time if only because we need G-d on our side to fight Iran. Up in Shamayim they are judging us and what is happening in Judea and Samaria is weighing down heavily against us. Read the links and decide for yourself.  It is up to us to ACT!  Contact the MK's and the Rabbanim and the Media to put the pressure on Netanyahu to adopt the Levy report recommendations.  It is time to proclaim that G-d is the King of the World and the Owner of the Land and He has chosen the Nation of Israel to Settle the Land and no other people. Stop the expulsions, the harassment on the Settlers, the destruction of shuls and Mikvahs and start to protect our brethren, the most worthy among us in Yehudah and Shomron.  This in turn will protect us and the world at large even in the Diaspora!

Lawlessness in Judea and Samaria - SHAME SHAME SHAME

I hope all of you reading this email will take it to heart and do your part.  Please publicize and forward freely.  These reports listed below are a terrible stain on Israel and especially on the Supreme Court of Israel. It also is a terrible stain on the Civil Administration of the Territories (Judea and Samaria) under the Defense Ministry These are not isolated cases as testimony to the Edmond Levy Commission reveal.  There is a terrible pattern of incidents which clearly show that The Military Civil Administration of Judea and Samaria is NOT a democracy but the Wild West of Lawlessness whereby there exists inadequate protection to taxpaying citizens of Israel, false accusations against settlers using fabricated testimony of Arabs accepted blindly by the courts without fair investigation, civil freedoms to children denied, Teenage youth, great kids,  almost treated like terrorists when they attempt to stop demolitions,  basic property rights denied (See link about Deutsch's).  Synagogues and Mikvehs destroyed !!! Check out these links of very sad but typical happenings in Judea and Samaria! Lo Yeuman!

 ATEM NITZAVIM HAYOM! ט. אַתֶּם נִצָּבִים הַיּוֹם כֻּלְּכֶם לִפְנֵי יְ־הֹוָ־ה אֱלֹהֵיכֶם רָאשֵׁיכֶם שִׁבְטֵיכֶם זִקְנֵיכֶם וְשֹׁטְרֵיכֶם כֹּל אִישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל:

We must act!

This population in Judea and Samaria, the salt of the earth is the same population that has the greatest percentage called in for reserve duty in the IDF of the entire country http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-4266397,00.html and the largest number of soldiers percentage wise in combat units.  http://www.israelnationalnews.com/Articles/Article.aspx/11097#.UFAMBI2PVm4 They have shown their love and sacrifice for the Land of Israel above and beyond the rest of the country...

yet they are treated disgracefully....

The Levy Report must be adopted ASAP and the power of the Supreme Court of Israel who is above the law must be put in check before they usurp the will of the gov't and the will of the people turning the gov't of Israel into gov't of Tyranny for Jews living in Judea and Samaria.

HOW WE TREAT OUR FELLOW JEW IN JUDEA AND SAMARIA AFFECTS HOW WE FIGHT IRAN. It has a domino effect on World Peace. 

The way we treat Jews in Judea and Samaria, is a reflection of our pride in our Biblical Heritage and Homeland.  This in turn effects our ability to  fight our enemies like Iran and their proxies.  If we demoralize our IDF with immoral orders to expel Jews from their homes, deny rights, truth and justice of our citizens, destroy synagogues and attack our own youth we weaken our ability to attack our real enemies drastically.  No military aid from America will compensate loss of morale and the will and desire to fight for Am Yisroel, the Torah and Eretz Yisroel. Thank you so much for listening and for your consideration!

From Naboth Vinyard to Vinyard of Deutsch By Elyakim HaEtzni (translated by Robin with the help of Google translate) September 10th, 2012

bs"d

Please read this article written by Elyakim Haetzni.  I took the liberty to translate it into English and I am posting it on my blog and sending it to many MK's, Rabbanim, Jewish media and activist list. (please forgive any errors in the translation. I have included the link to the original article in Hebrew. I welcome any corrections)

From Naboth Vinyard to Vinyard of Deutsch  By Elyakim HaEtzni (translated by Robin with the help of Google translate) http://www.news1.co.il/Archive/003-D-76239-00.html(H)
September 10th, 2012

11 years the Deutsch's heard no complaints regarding working their land.  Then came the anarchists and the complaints began.  After that prosecution.  The story is told to me by Moshe Deutsch.  Deutsch was one of the founders of Susia, located in the Hebron Hills, over 30 years ago, 

Seventeen years ago, Deutsch cleared away uncultivated land and rocks for agricultural use, he and his children (and he has 10 bli ayin hara 7 of them boys).   They toiled hard digging up the ground, 45 acres and year after year for 11 years planted wheat and barley.  For all that time, until 2006 for 11 years, the Deutsch's did not hear any complaints or appeals from anyone regarding working this land (which is not in no-mans land but next to a junction near the main road),  In 2006 they planted a vineyard on half of the land. 3,300 trees Cabernet Sauvignon with an investment of 180,000 shekel.  

And the anarchists came.  The usual cocktail of enemies of Israel along with strangers, among them Japanese, Spaniards and Americans. Any other normal government would have thrown them out after their initial stirring up of trouble.  Rather,the government of Israel found it ok to unleash them out on the settlers.  Among them were elderly Arabs, who can "claim" to remember that his land was "stolen" from somebody.  Now the rest of the script you can write yourself.  Provocation and incitement, police, complaint and testimony from Moshe Deutsch that testified that nobody claimed the land.  After that a Supreme Court case whereby the Arab petitioners presented a log entry from tax records on a totally different place far away.  In this Supreme Court petition, the main respondent is the Civil Defense Administration.  According to the law, [until recently changed, robin] one who works unclaimed, abandoned land for 10 years uncontested acquires the rights to the land. 

 In this case, the Arab petitioners had no proof that the land was theirs even 11 years before Deutsch held the land.

In this situation, one would expect that the Civil Administration would at least be neutral in this land dispute between 2 civil parties now pending before the Supreme Court of Justice.  But this was not the case.  Like in similar cases, the Civil Administration sided with the Arab petitioners.  Deutsch's Power of Attorney even heard the representative of the Civil Administration brief the arab petitioners as per which documents to show the Supreme Court.

But this was just the beginning.

While this hearing was pending, the Civil Administration issued a one sided order to grant the Arab petitioner who never planted any vines, half of the property. Also it was determined that the Deutsches were only permitted to work the area allotted to him, the vineyard 1 hour a day and no more.  Deutsch noted that the vineyard was just a few months old and this restriction was basically a death warrant for the vineyard.

Yet when the hostile Civil Administration saw the diligence and efforts of Deutsch to somehow save the vineyard, they came out with a new evil decree, worse than the first.  "An order to remove anything that disturbs".  This is Sodomite legislation typical of Sodomite legislation looking to embitter the lives of the enemy.  Please note that the matter was pending a Supreme Court decision and yet they arbitrarily allowed themselves to arrogantly eliminate Jewish claim from the disputed territory...not because the Deutsch's were illegally occupying since the matter was still being contested but rather that his presence constituted a "disturbance".  Like one chases away an annoying fly...Disturbing who? Disturbing what?  Why is it a disturbance?  It is not surprising that no one invited Mr. Deutsch to state his case before issuing the removal order.  Maybe he would actually have evidence to substantiate his claims.  Instead, they ruled "You're a nuisance?  Go away!"

My dear friends, my fellow settlers.  This is our position, our strength and rights today in Judea and Samaria. 

When  the order regarding land usage that "is a disturbance" came out, the vineyard was two and a half years old. In much frustration, the Deutsch's Power of Attorney searched for any legal forum that screamed out "bloody murder".  

They turned to the "Bet Mishpat Shalom", the Jerusalem Magistrate Court, to receive a statement regarding Deutsch's rights to the land and requested that the situation be stayed until the completion of the hearing of the Supreme Court. The reaction of the court was as expected.  In accordance to its measure of evil,was its brutal violence, arbitrariness and cruelty.  In March 2011, in the middle of the night, 2:00am, the destroyers came, Yasamniks and officers of the army, blocked the main road and with the help of bulldozers destroyed within 3 hours the entire vineyard.  After that, the Arabs came to seize the area.  They did not come alone.  They were accompanied by IDF forces guarding them against the Jews.

Meanwhile, came a ruling of a different case whereby the presumption of land ownership after 10 years of uncontested claim is no longer binding or a consideration.  Then the Deutsch attorney gave up.  They exhausted legal means, they were without rights before a military government. 

That is precisely the legal status of the Settlers and theirs alone.  Since Oslo, the Arabs have their own civilian governments in Aza and Ramalla.  Land cleared and bettered by Deutsch is now peacefully and tranquilly in the hands of Arab petitioners who don't need to prove ownership and is even protected by the military government, the Civil Administration, Israeli Police and the IDF. Not to mention another minute detail of losing 180,000 shekel investment along with their time, hard work, sweat and tears down the drain.  Despair and Frustration.....

All this is occurring under the responsibility of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. It suits him outwardly to make it seem like the evil intentions belong to the Defense Minister Ehud Barak yet he is aware of everything and is responsible.

To complete the picture, we must add the lobby efforts that were made to save the situation.  They turned to MK Elkin, Uri Ariel and others, Zambish and the Mayor tried...Moshe Deutsch wrote to different people and asked for help but all efforts didn't help.  

We will address what still needs to be done later at the end of this article....

Whoever thinks that this incident with Moshe Deutsch is of unusual severity, is welcome to read the article by Kalman Libeskin dated August 26, 2010 in Sofshabbat in Maariv entitled "Eretz Meshuga" [which means "Crazy Land". Also if you want to see a pattern of letting the Arabs get away with delinquent activity read http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/141167#.UFIGjI2PVm4 Coverup of Arab Arson Offensive Exposed Israel's police, fire brigades and press decided to hush up arson offensive, a lone journalist reports, robin.]. This article deals with what happened and is happening to Mordechai Deutsch brother of Moshe Deutsch, of Mitzpe Yair which is close to his brothers residence in Susia.  Mordechai came to Mitzpe Yair from Gush Katif.  His brother Shaya, who worked together with him in the greenhouses in Kfar-Yam, was murdered by one of his workers (March 29, 1993).  A tragedy sending shock waves in its time.  Mordechai transferred the equipment to Har Hebron and started anew.  This time he started with 8 acres of such incubators known as "wind pipes".  They were aluminum pipes arched covered with nylon: organic farming of various vegetables with no workers, just himself, his wife and 8 children.  The salt of the earth.  10 years ago, the Civil Administration opened a portfolio against him for these pipes that also disassemble, because of unlicensed construction.  Libeskind noted that in the surrounding area there are hundreds of illegal greenhouses built by Arabs that don't require permits.

Meanwhile, another front from an entirely different direction was opened against Mordechai.  But in the Sodom of the Civil Adminstration these two fronts will in the future connect, to strangle Jewish Settlement.  Ten years after Mordechai began to work the land, Arabs from Yata from the Awad family accosted him and claimed before the Civil Adminstration that the land belongs to them.  For many years, no one, neither they nor others, raised any claim or appeal.  Mordechai took the usual route that begins with the Supreme Court and then the Arabs claimed that the land was registered in the name of their grandfather.  But this trick they had tried before and it turned out that they lied and the documents were fabricated.  Also the claim that they worked the land until 1997 was refuted by aerial photographs.

The respondent as usual was the Civil Administration.  But instead of requesting a rejection of the petition in light of all these lies, the Administration took the side of the Arabs. What did they do? Since they lost the burden of proof regarding Arab ownership of the land, they remembered the violation, an old story 10 years earlier, for the missing building permit of the aluminum pipes and they notified Mordechai that hey will destroy all the greenhouses because of lack of a building permit.  

That paved  a shortcut way to beat the Supreme Court.  It was possible for the Arabs to win without having the matter settled in the Supreme Court.  All the Deutsch's greenhouses will be destroyed not because of Awads petition but because of the wind pipes!  The date was set by the officers of Sodom themselves arbitrarily.  When the Arab petitioners saw that the Civil Adminstration did all the work they withdrew their petition from the Supreme Court. 

And so the Deutsch Familyh waits with bated breath for the end of August [and beyond robin].  Will the Axe fall on their existance?  Perhaps the "Occupiers" will against their nature, show a drop of compassion against the Settler "enemy"?

Together with the stories of the 2 brothers, one should read the Edmund Levy Report in order to understand its immense significance.  Suddenly, three paragraphs in the report are understood and very relevant. Here is a quote from the testimony of the head of the Civil Adminstration, Almoz, before the Committee.  

"The current situation is for the benefit of the Palestinians" since the procedure is that a Palestinian can display any evidence, any receipt, a payment on any distant parcel of land and if the Israeli doesn't bring a contract, he will be forced out, shooed away like a fly from the field.  In land disputes in Judea and Samaria, I am required by the Attorney General to adopt the view of the judges even in cases that I am not comfortable with the decision after my own personal evaluation of the data and the property."

The Edmund Committee in its own voice says:

" It appears as if the planners of the decree put a goal for themselves - to prevent Jewish Settlement in Judea and Samaria or widen her borders"

and also that the Civil Administrative is an administration whose authority

"apparently appears to maintain a negative bias against the Israeli Settler".

Deutsch Brothers... You heard!  Now you know why this evil has befallen upon you!

Both episodes that I presented here could not have happened had the government approved the Levi Report and adopted her.

Palestinian appellants would be sent to regular courts and asked for proof  of substance for their claims. If there is no substance, a decent judge would throw out the case and others who see this wouldn't bother coming.  The Civil Administration would be denied the authority to implement hostile, cruel, unjust orders like heter iska charging interest, throwing out people from the land because working the land is "cause a disturbance" or issuing military orders of expulsion from the area. 

Netanyahu, and it all depends on him, and it is his responsibility, still has not presented the Levy Report to his cabinet of Ministers for approval.  

They say that he promised in the beginning of September and in this he will be tested.  [it is now September 12th robin]. Also the Settler establishments, head of their councils, the Yesha Council, Likud and her ministers, MK's and their PR and every Jewish patriot will be tested.  It is a big SHAME.  The Deutsch brothers, in their hardest hours were left to themselves while there was no one among us,  and we in all our strengths, number in the 400,000's,  to save them. The Deutsch family is only one example.  There are many more. 

In this time, let us remember, if the Levy Report is not implemented and if this is the case, and we don't go all out with an all out struggle against the Netanyahu regime without giving a care about what anyone thinks, including non compliance with the Civil Administration (civil disobedience)  - going out to the streets  in an effort to bring down the Netanyahu government like it happened in the past when he was guilty, in the end each of us will find himself entrapped in an occupying ruler ship who will treat us as an enemy that was defeated and conquered.   

Because all of us are the Deutsch brothers!

ISRAELI GOVERNMENT DESTROYS HOLY SITES by Helen Freedman, Executive Director AFSI

bs"d

ISRAELI GOVERNMENT DESTROYS HOLY SITES by  Helen Freedman, Executive Director 
September 4, 2012
 
         That's an alarming headline. If the holy sites were Muslim, there would be a world-wide outcry of condemnation. Instead, because the synagogue and mikveh of a Jewish community are destroyed, one hardly hears a murmur of disapproval. Yes, there were many Israelis who fought against the destruction of Migron. There were many of us in the "galut" who cried out against it. But the sanctity of an outrageous and unjust Supreme Court decision held sway, and on America's Labor Day, the hated Yassamnikim, the black-robed destroyers of the Israeli police, arrived to do their dirty work.
           I saw these people face to face seven years ago in Neve Dekalim, Gush Katif/Gaza, when they formed an unbreakable line of resistance against the Gush Katif residents who were pleading with them not to destroy their communities. I saw the impassive faces, the cold stares, and the total indifference of the destroyers. Of course, they were only carrying out the orders of their superiors.
           Today, PM Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak are delivering these orders and the underlings are executing them. Along with the homes, schools, playgrounds, shops, nurseries, offices, and community halls which were destroyed, the mikveh and synagogue will also be leveled. What malevolent force drives Israel's leaders to order such evil? And what pretense there is in suggesting that this is simply moving people from one home to another!!

שי ניצן, אויב ההתיישבות: מינוי קטסטרופלי!! Settler-basher URGENT

 

מיידי: ביום א לפני צהריים, יעקב נאמן החליט לבקש מהשרים למנות את שי ניצן  לתפקיד "משנה ליועץ המשפטי לממשלה" -- עם אחריות מיוחדת לתחומים הקריטיים הבאים: בטחון מדינת ישראל. ישובים. מאחזים. מתנחלים.

 

זהו אסון ממש!! שי ניצן הוא צורר התיישבות. אם יקבל את המנוי, הוא יעשה הכל כדי להרוס ולהחריב כל חלקה טובה ביהודה ושומרון. אנא היזכרו בהשקפת העולם השמאלית שלו: שי ניצן  היה אחראי בגאווה למעצרים האינסופיים נגד מתנגדי גירוש גוש קטיף, כולל אפילו ילדים קטנים, ומצד שני היה אחראי לסגירת תיקים סיטונאית לשוטרים האלימים בפוגרום עמונה!

 

בסופשבוע עדיף סמס ולא מייל. לכן, אנא מייד לסמס לשרים ולדרוש מהם לסכל את המנוי הזה, למשל:

חיוני להצביע נגד מנוי מסוכן של שי ניצן! יש להתבטא בתקשורת!! לדפוק על השולחן!! וכמובן - להגיע ביום א ולהצביע נגד!!

According to the proposal Mr. Nitzan's areas of responsibility are to include: Defense. Settlements. Outposts. Prosecuting settlers. 

WE ARE IN BIG TROUBLE. Shay Nitzan, as every single minister knows perfectly well, has always shown complete dedication to radical pro-Palestinian, anti-settler policies.  To give one small example, in his previous position in the Ministry of Justice, he jailed hundreds of peaceful Gush Katif protestors -- but ensured that the violent police from the Amona pogrom were not prosecuted! Even worse, there is absolutely no doubt that he will work diligently, Peace-Now style,  to bulldoze as many communities in Yehuda and Shomron as he can.  

Please SMS a suitable message to the ministers super-urgent, today Friday, Saturday night & Sunday morning. For example: 

CATASTROPHE: VOTE AGAINST, AGAINST, AGAINST SHAY NITZAN!

Cell phone numbers  are above in the Hebrew section.  If impossible for you to SMS, please convey your message using the email addresses above in the Hebrew section. Thank you!

Dear Friends,

Here you have it! In fact this is shameful spectacle.

It is truly a mind boggling event. The mere fact that the whole affair was handled so carelessly and clumsily, points to the disarray the Dems display with regard to Israel, and probably to other matters.

Are 10,000 nay sayers (half the delegates present in the vote) in doubt as to where President Obama and the Democratic Party stand on the issue of Jerusalem?

Who is causing the confusion and why?

Are any Jews still in doubt after this schlemiel display that the Dems can no longer be relied upon, despite the declaration of support in AIPAC by all their top leaders including Obama Reid and Pelosi? 

Would or should any Jew who puts Israel among the top of his/hers priorities vote for these bunch of bunglers?

How many more such incidents are required to make Jews realize things have changed since the party was ruled by Kennedy, Johnson and even Clinton?

Rabbanim, Media, MKs, Friends, DID YOU CALL TO SAVE MIGRON? Will we all be held accountable? READ LETTER FROM DESTROYED MIGRON REFUGEE

Bs"d

Can we honestly say    ז   יָדֵינוּ לֹא שפכה [שָׁפְכוּ] אֶת הַדָּם הַזֶּה וְעֵינֵינוּ לֹא רָאוּ דברים כא 'Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it.

The Migron's statement on the day they were expelled: 


"Today is a dark day for the State of Israel, a day in which the basic rights of citizens have been trampled.… The government of Israel will not be able to wash its hands of the brutal rape that is being carried out under its open eyes, through its silent approval,'' said the statement. "Today, the Prime Minister has gone down in eternal infamy as a member of a destructive band of preceding prime ministers that chose to raise a hand to the Settlement Enterprise in the Land of Israel"

================================

You can ignore all my emails but come Rosh Hashana there is a reckoning.  When Silence is a Sin

We pleaded for you to call.....


Well this is the consequence of our Collective Silence!!!!!
Taking our cue from American Citizens of Constitutional Rights ...http://www.c4cg.org/index.html

The Constitution identifies many Rights, e.g., speech, press, religion, etc., all of which fit into one of three categories - Life, Liberty, or Property. The possession of these basic Rights are all necessary for the Pursuit of Happiness. Violation of any one of the three by government is tyranny. Several of the Founders suggested the following slogan for our Great Seal, "Resistance to Tyranny is Obedience to GOD".

The Prophesy of Isaiah Chapter 1 יְשַׁעְיָהוּ

כו  וְאָשִׁיבָה שֹׁפְטַיִךְ כְּבָרִאשֹׁנָה, וְיֹעֲצַיִךְ כְּבַתְּחִלָּה; אַחֲרֵי-כֵן, יִקָּרֵא לָךְ עִיר הַצֶּדֶק--קִרְיָה, נֶאֱמָנָה. 26 And I will restore thy judges as at the first, and thy counsellors as at the beginning; afterward thou shalt be called the city of righteousness, the faithful city.
כז  צִיּוֹן, בְּמִשְׁפָּט תִּפָּדֶה; וְשָׁבֶיהָ, בִּצְדָקָה. 27 Zion shall be redeemed with justice, and they that return of her with righteousness.
כח  וְשֶׁבֶר פֹּשְׁעִים וְחַטָּאִים, יַחְדָּו; וְעֹזְבֵי יְהוָה, יִכְלוּ. 28 But the destruction of the transgressors and the sinners shall be together, and they that forsake the LORD shall be consumed.

ISRAELI GOVERNMENT DESTROYS HOLY SITES by Helen Freedman AND LETTER FROM AVIELA DEITCH - REFUGEE FROM DESTROYED MIGRON COMMUNITY

 bs"d

 ISRAELI GOVERNMENT DESTROYS HOLY SITES by  Helen Freedman, Executive Director
 
         That's an alarming headline. If the holy sites were Muslim, there would be a world-wide outcry of condemnation. Instead, because the synagogue and mikveh of a Jewish community are destroyed, one hardly hears a murmur of disapproval. Yes, there were many Israelis who fought against the destruction of Migron. There were many of us in the "galut" who cried out against it. But the sanctity of an outrageous and unjust Supreme Court decision held sway, and on America's Labor Day, the hated Yassamnikim, the black-robed destroyers of the Israeli police, arrived to do their dirty work.
           I saw these people face to face seven years ago in Neve Dekalim, Gush Katif/Gaza, when they formed an unbreakable line of resistance against the Gush Katif residents who were pleading with them not to destroy their communities. I saw the impassive faces, the cold stares, and the total indifference of the destroyers. Of course, they were only carrying out the orders of their superiors.
           Today, PM Benjamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak are delivering these orders and the underlings are executing them. Along with the homes, schools, playgrounds, shops, nurseries, offices, and community halls which were destroyed, the mikveh and synagogue will also be leveled. What malevolent force drives Israel's leaders to order such evil? And what pretense there is in suggesting that this is simply moving people from one home to another!!
            Aviela Deitch, a young mother with whom the AFSI Chizuk group has had a number of meetings while visiting in Migron, has written me the following email. Please, put yourself in her shoes and understand the enormity of the pain and suffering she and her neighbors are enduring. Do whatever you possibly can to reach the Netanyahu government to decry this action and others that might be in the planning stages. memshala@pmo.gov.il; bnetanyahu@knesset.gov.il; pm_eng2@it.pmo.gov.il; minister@mod.gov.il
 
FROM AVIELA DEITCH - REFUGEE FROM DESTROYED MIGRON COMMUNITY 
 I will try to write things out better tomorrow, but I want everyone to know that as much as a rosey picture has been painted all over the place, the lower neighborhood is simply very unsafe at this point, and most families, most likely, will be moving in tomorrow.  That is not yet final.  Additionally, eight families received caravans that are uninhabitable, some grossly so.  These families include that of Etai, founder of the community, whose wife is currently expecting; as well as the Gutman family, whose home was already destroyed once, then twice;  another family that had a home that they had built, and one family where the wife is due to give birth any day, in addition to having four other small children at home, thank G-d.  The kindergartens, day care and shul are far from ready.  Where we will daven on Rosh HaShanah is entirely unclear.  It is so NOT OKAY.  The community, as well as the head of the county, Avi Roeh, have begged for at least the synagogue not to be destroyed, or the permanent and expensive mikveh.  No go.  were it a dead sheikh lying up there, he'd be safe.  But we are being left with no mikveh at all and our shul is also marked to be plowed under next week.  That's right, while everyone is sitting at work or in school, a shul will be destroyed.  It apparently isn't even enough to board up a mikveh made of concrete, it has to be destroyed.  WHY?!!

How to respond to the Brutal Rape of Migron? Intolerable Acts.

Bs"d

Dear Rabbanim, Media, Members of Knesset and fellow activists and lovers of Israel, amv"sh


IN MY LAST EMAIL  Brutal Rape of Migron http://shemittahrediscovered.blogspot.com/2012/09/the-brutal-rape-of-migron-migron.html  it was suggested that settlers who actively participate in their own expulsion and do not protest and cooperate with silence share in the guilt.  This was surely not the case here in Migron since the settlers have been most vocal in their protest. The fact that they left the scene with their little kids does not translate to cooperating with those who expel them.  Does anyone expect them to hang around on the battlefield with their little children?  Any responsible parent would agree that a battlefield is not a place for women and children and not even for teenage youth.  Who initiated the battle?  Surely it was not the Settlers.  However, their property is surely threatened.    Who came dressed in black with armor and shields ready to expel Jews from their homes?

So how should the protest manifest itself if the families are out of sight?

Let us take our cue from the American Revolution.   The American Patriots established a Continental Congress and in response to intolerable acts by the British which included Taxation without Representation established militias.  

I see the accusing finger pointing at me.  Oh so you are calling for a Civil War!  A Milchemet Achim?  Calm down.  Right now we are talking about the American Revolution and the American gov't and the American way of life and the following is not written by me or talking about Israel but about the foundations of America and about freedom and democracy.    


Any discussion of Rights should begin with an understanding of the following:
Rights do not come from government. Governments can only grant privileges. Privileges that be granted can also be taken away. Rights do not come from the Constitution either. The Constitution only protects Rights by establishing a government designed to provide protection for We The People.

All Rights come from God and are inalienable, which means that they cannot be taken away. Those who violate God-given Rights must believe themselves superior to God or they must believe that God does not exist. I am describing humanism which is discussed in more depth on this page.

The Constitution identifies many Rights, e.g., speech, press, religion, etc., all of which fit into one of three categories - Life, Liberty, or Property. The possession of these basic Rights are all necessary for the Pursuit of Happiness. Violation of any one of the three by government is tyranny. Several of the Founders suggested the following slogan for our Great Seal, "Resistance to Tyranny is Obedience to GOD".

Attached to and an essential part of God-given Rights is the sacred duty to protect and defend those Rights with whatever means necessary. It is the Right To Bear Arms that protects all other rights. Therefore, if it is lost, all other rights will surely be lost as well.

We should never allow ourselves to get drawn into a frivolous discussion over what type of gun is suitable for hunting, sport shooting, etc., because those issues have nothing what-so-ever to do with the Right to Keep and Bear Arms. Peace Through Strength is always the best policy for the military and for individuals.

The right to keep and bear arms not only predates the writing of the Second Amendment, it also predates the discovery of firearms, because the right to defend one's right to Life, Liberty, and Property came with the Creation of Man.


-----------------------------------------------------

Now Dear Friends, Let us get back to Migron.  Can you deny the description "Gov't of Tyranny"  appropriate for Netanyahu's administration after the recent expulsion from MIGRON?  

Surely everyone will agree that the residents of Migron and Gush Katif suffered much worse intolerable acts than taxation w/o representation.  Having ones property stolen and being expelled from ones home is far worse that unfair taxation. 

If you are not yet convinced as per Israel's right to the Property of Judea and Samaria please read the following excellent article:

Op-Ed: 
Stephen Kruger
Published: Thursday, August 30, 2012 10:43 AM
The land of Israel is a trust of which the Jewish people are the beneficiaries, the government of Israel the trustees. There are, however, duties and rules.

This battle for Migron and all the settlements in Judea and Samaria should then be fought fair and square.  Armed Soldiers with shields must be met with the same and not with unarmed teenage kids no matter how admirable or honorable their intentions. 

Who should rally the troops?  My initial answer to this question is the Rabbanim and Roshei Yeshiva of the Hesder Yeshivot and Nachal Chareidi. They should instruct their soldiers not to obey any immoral orders that involves "raping the land of Israel"  in order to take her from her rightful owner the people of Israel and give her to an alien owner,  the Palestinians.   The municipalities of Judea and Samaria should work hand in hand with a working Kosher and Holy army who is ready to stand by to protect the Holy Land and the property of Jews.  

Will this cause a Civil War.  I personally do not believe so.  But just like the War in Iran, tyranny must not be tolerated and must be shown a willingness to go to war.  Those who usurped their power, basically the Supreme Court of Israel, and those who follow immoral orders under the Civil Administration of the territories must be stopped.

The Brutal Rape of Migron, Migron spokesperson and Comments

bs"d

The following is an expression of the very deep emotional pain and moral dilemma felt by people in Migron and from this letter one can understand how the residents were split and agonized as per how to address the terrible crime about to be perpetrated on their community. 

* Brutal Rape of Migron residents http://www.eish-l.org/s/sdtowf (HEBREW)

Spokesperson of Migron: (loose translation)

This is a black day for the State of Israel.  A day where the basic civil rights of people on the right are being trampled.  

Today the Prosecution gave permission to a Price Tag operation by clerks on the entire settlement community.  

The government of Israel will not be able to cleanse her hands from the brutal rape that was done under her watchful eyes with silent agreement.

On this day, the Prime Minister Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu joins in contributing to the decline of the world,  with previous governments that chose to raise their hand on the settlement enterprise.  We are confident that the citizens of the Zionist State will know how to bring him to account for this.

The Settlers of Migron raise their heads on this difficult day and believe that settlement will grow and flourish and very very soon the story of Migron will end with at least 2 settlements. 


Neemanei Eretz commentary Shoshana Greenfeld: (Abridged translation)

Questions and Answers: "And G-d was good to the midwives and made them houses"

The obligation to scream

"The Brutal Rape of Migron" The author gives the analogy of the situation brought in the Torah about a married women being raped in a city setting and her obligation to scream. 

When one is raped, she has the moral obligation not to participate in the rape. She is obligated to scream against the brutal crime.  If she does not scream, she is a guilty party along with her rapist and both are sentenced to die. The author of this post went into specifics.  She can not in any way be a willing participant like undress, unbutton or open her legs. The scream is necessary because that is the resistance to the brutal crime and evil. The scream is supposed to bring people to come and help her, to stop the rape and if she doesn't scream she allows the terrible crime to continue. 

That is to say: When they are raping a settlement with brutality, there is an obligation to scream.  and not only  screaming but one is not allowed to disrobe willingly, to pack willingly and or participate in any activity in cooperation with the rapist.  

Those who live nearby are obligated to come and help and cries must not fall on deaf ears. Otherwise what is the point for her to scream?

Another example in the Torah that was mentioned was the chapter of Egla Arufa where we learn about mutual responsibility, and what is required from the nearby city.  If a body is found in a field the elders must come from the neighboring villages and wash their hands in the nearby streams and declare that the're hands had no part int he spilling of the blood and their eyes didn't see anything and they didn't hear anything.  Otherwise if they could have prevented the crime and didn't, they would be guilty. That is, they are clean only if they did not hear and did not see and therefore did not prevent the crime. But if they did hear and see and closed their eyes, then they are partners in the rape, in the evil deed and in the crime. That is agreeing in silence.  

Like the Migron spokesperson writes, the government of Israel can not cleanse her hands, this is also the case regarding nearby settlements and the entire nation who are silent against this crime, and do not arrive in order to establish a tent city and in this way prevent the brutal rape - is guilty.  Surely this is true for those who are active participants in being an arm in implementing the rape in one way or another. 

The Moral and Torah way is for all friends,neighbors and acquaintances to come and prevent the brutal rape and to scream and stop it as it says "Al Taamod al Dam Reiacha". Don't stand by the blood of your fellow Jew.  They are obligated to come and stop the rapist..  Otherwise there is no point in the scream. 


"And G-d was good to the Midwives and made them Houses"  The Midwives overturned Pharohs evil decrees so G-d built them houses.  Hashem also built for Moshe a house because he stood up against evil and was rewarded. One who stands up against evil, the end is good. He diminished the evil decree  and had put his life in danger when  he didn't know the outcome.

The author concludes.  Every one must choose whether to build his moral house and in this way a house in the world or whether to destroy a house.

With Blessings, from those who fear the word of Hashem and loves His people.

-------------------------------------------------

My comments:  The author seems to be warning the residents of Migron  who choose to leave silently of not being active participants in their own rape since then they too would be accountable.  

However, it seems quite clear to me that Migron has been screaming for a long time.  Not screaming loud enough?  I heard them loud and clear and forwarded their cry to my list and posted it on my blog.  

The author is correct that one is required to scream to prevent a brutal crime like rape and one is required to come to the rescue and prevent the crime from happening. 

This analogy is  quite a shocking one and perhaps those that left Migron without supporting a mass protest were very offended and pained by the analogy of their brothers/sisters of being compared to an active participant to their own rape who is held accountable. 

The analogy however misses an important  point.  This point is that the expulsion of Migron,  is the nullification of G-d's Covenant with the Jewish people and not only with those who happen to  live in Migron. 

It is the rape of the Jewish People and not just 50 families. 

It is the Jewish People who are not screaming about this brutal rape but rather have been prostituting to the powers at large such as World opinion, American opinion etc. 

  1. She has yet to proclaim!  "I am married to the Land exclusively in holiness and NO OTHER PEOPLE  can be sanctified when they possess this LAND. ONLY a Holy Nation, and a HOLY People called the Nation of Israel is the rightful marriage partner."  Not only the people of Israel is being raped but so is the Land itself.  If the intention of the gov't of Israel is to give the land to a strange owner (baal) that is like raping a married women. The sanctity of the marriage is then defiled.

On the Sabbath morning prayers we say  "And You did not give [the Sabbath, the Sabbatical Year, the Shemittah] Hashem, our G-d, to the nations of the world, and nor did you make it an inheritance, our King, of the worshipers of idols; and also in its rest will the uncircumcised not be sheltered, FOR TO ISRAEL, YOUR PEOPLE HAVE YOU GIVEN IT WITH LOVE, TO THE SEED OF JACOB WHOM YOU HAVE CHOSEN THE PEOPLE THAT SANCTIFY THE SEVENTH, ALL OF THEM WILL BE DELIGHTED FROM YOUR GOODNESS, MOST COVETED OF DAYS YOU CALLED IT a remembrance of the act of Creation!

"In the beginning of His creating, Hashem created the heavens and the earth. And the earth was unformed and void, and darkness was over the face of the deep, and the spirit of Hashem hovered over the face of the waters. And Hashem said, "Let there be light, and there was light.'" (Bereishis 1:1-3)
Rashi, in his first commentary in the Torah, asks, "Why does the Torah begin with Bereishis, the account of the creation of the world? If the Torah is a book of mitzvohs, why doesn't it start with the mitzvoh of Rosh Chodesh, the Torah's first mitzvoh found in Parshas Bo, the 3rd Parsha in the book of Shemos?"

Rashi answers with a verse (Psalms 111:6), "'The power of His works He has declared to His people by giving them the inheritance of the nations (Eretz Yisrael).' For if the nations of the world should say to Israel, 'You robbed the Caananites of the their land', Israel will have a ready answer. 'The entire world belongs to Hashem. He created it and He gave it to whomever He deemed worthy in his eyes. He gave it to the Caananites when He wanted to, and now He took it from them and gave it to us."
