Eldad's main points:

*  Weak Leadership of Netanyahu - Netanyahu is great in theory but buckles under pressure. He is unable in implement what in theory he knows is correct. In theory he knows it was wrong to negotiate. In practice he agreed to a Palestinian State knowing that it is suicide for Israel.  He was unprepared for the unbearable pressure from the Obama Administration.  He is dangerous because now he wishes to prove that he is strong and he is seriously working to establish a Palestinian State and has frozen the settlements. On the up end, since he is weak he will also bow to pressure from the right which can neutralize pressure from the Left.  We must undermine the government by building and settling in all parts of Israel.

* Our right to the Land is based only on the Torah, our Biblical Homeland. This is the source of our right and nothing else.  Security considerations are not reliable.  For example, someone will convince us that they will guarantee our protection for us if we make the right concessions.

*  Iran - Israel must take the military step to protect itself and not depend on any other Nation. Israel has the tools to defend itself and must.  Our strategy must be proactive because the window of opportunity with a nuclear Iran may be closed.

*The source of the conflict is misdiagnosis of conflict - It is a religious war and not a territorial conflict. Prescription to  divide the Land is the solution if this was a territorial conflict. Bad diagnosis and bad prescription.  The Land can not be divided as what is written in Torah.

* Ultimately Egypt and Saudi will appreciate military action by Israel against the nuclear threat of Iran since they know that  America or Europe can not be depended upon.

My comments are that since this is a religious War based on Torah, the Rabbanim must guide and lead the people and get involved and not be weak like Netanyahu who knows the truth in theory but fail to act.  They must not be afraid to speak out forcefully and lead the Nation to do the same about Hashem's Covenant with Avrohom Yitzchok and Yaakov and for the Children of Israel forever.  Eretz Yisroel is our Jewish Heritage.  AGudath Yisroel, UTJ, SHAS, Young Israel, Chabad International, OU Chiloni and Dati alike need to take this window of opportunity to encourage, support Yesha and help the settlements because it is the Divine will. We must be willing to take the risks that are necessary and act in strength and not in weakness. Beezrat Hashem.
