Attention Jewish Media and Rabbonim: From the office of MK Nissim Zeev's, meeting with Mike Huckabee: הודעה לעיתונות - ח"כ נסים זאב ארח את המושל מייק הוקבי בכנסת

bs"d

Note the pictures attached sent to me from Nissem Zeev's office hosting Mr. Huckabee.

Please also look at http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/142051 

(INN)....Voight: Torah Has All the Answers
Former Gov. Huckabee is being accompanied on this, his 15th visit to Israel, by known Zionist figures Dr. Joseph Frager, Dr. Paul Brody and Ms. Odeleya Jacobs, as well as by actor Jon Voight, who told the MKs, "The Jews have given the world the Torah, which includes every possible answer to your life's needs... I witnessed the victims of barbaric Palestinian attacks, and it is outrageous that the world accepts this barbarism as a means of attaining political goals such as a state."        

Even though the Jewish Community and major Jewish Organizations  has much invested in the Democratic Party, the Republican Party, with Mike Huckabee as a key example is broadcasting to the Israeli Knesset and the world a message that is based on Torah which is that our entitlement to all of the Land of Israel including Judea and Samaria is based on our Biblical land historical .connection to the land. 

It is time that the Media, especially the Jewish Media understand that media creates facts on the ground as Al Jezeera has proven in Tunisia.  Please read .http://www.hudson-ny.org/1835/tunisia-al-jazeera-islamist-revolution The war is being fought on many fronts.  There is lawfare and mediafare and warfare.   I am addressing mediafare at the moment.

Even handedness of Democrats and Republicans translates into even handedness presentation of  Palestinian rights to Eretz Yisroel vs. Jewish rights to Eretz Yisroel.  

The Torah is not very evenhanded regarding this matter.  Only Jews have entitlement and the Land will not produce for any foreign entity other than the Jewish People. The people of Israel will not be safe with any other arrangement and neither will the people outside of Israel be safe with foreign occupiers of the Land of Israel.  The "spiritual music" that Jewish settlement  in the Land of Israel brings to mankind will be silenced and destruction and pain takes over.

As far as the Palestinian Authority being the practical reality on the ground, it is only so because Politics and the Media presents it as a practical reality.  In fact this "practical reality"  is based on falsehoods, lies and distortions of Press that claims that the Land of Israel is "occupied", illegally of course,  by Jewish Settlement. 

As Orthodox Jews, we all know that G-d says in the ;Holy Torah  "Ki Li Kol Haaretz". The Land is Mine. Not even a prime minister of the Israeli gov't or the editor of a "Torah" publication or news broadcaster or Rav,  can or should misrepresent reality that change the Truths and Realities based on Torah.

Our obligations to present the facts based on Torah truths is no longer an option.  It is a necessity for the benefit not only of Israel but as Mike Huckabee says, it's for the benefit for all of humanity.  When we fail to do so, Islamic fundamentalism begins to gain the upper hand and literally  takes over. 

So will you put Mike Huckabee and his message on your front page?????? or will you offer another  "even handed" piece putting down  Sarah Palin and the rage she incurred when she needed to defend herself against a blood libel. ?  

And ;if you say this does not affect local news and that you only print local news, , tell that to the parents of students of Brooklyn College whose college age children  have required reading authored by  a Radical Muslim and have to put up with nasty campus Muslim protests regarding safety checkpoints in Judea and Samaria. .  http://shemittahrediscovered.blogspot.com/2010/10/its-not-only-columbia-university-read.htmlRobin

To all my readers, please forward this to media and Rabbanim since I'm not sure if my emails are getting through.

 Women In Green  
Dear Friends,
 
Below please find the translation into Englsih of Rivki Goldfingers article in the Besheva newspaper this past shabbat
 
with love for Israel,
 
Yehudit Katsover and Nadia Matar
 
Arutz7
Israel National News
 
15 Shevat 5771 * January 20, 2011
 
They make facts on the Ground
            Their jeep dauntlessly sweeps across the hills and dirt roads throughout Gush Etzion and the Hebron hills, and not a single dunam of land escapes their eyes.
by Rivki Goldfinger
 
            Their jeep dauntlessly sweeps across the hills and dirt roads throughout Gush Etzion and the Hebron hills, and not a single dunam of land escapes their eyes * For five years Nadia Matar and Yehudit Katsover have been struggling for Jewish possession of the area, while keeping track of the worrisome Arab takeover * In the battle for the land, they want, first of all, to "establish facts on the ground" * The strategy: hundreds of plantings of new trees throughout the year that will establish who are the owners of the land
 
            Nadia Matar and Yehudit Katsover, the leaders of the Women in Green movement, devote their time to "the war over home," as they define this. They fear no one. Speeding in a white jeep throughout Gush Etzion, spreading out maps and examining every new development on the ground. This week I joined them for a patrol. They take me to the edge of the Palestinian town of Beit Sahour, where we encountered trucks, going about their business as if they belonged there, leveling areas at the foot of the hill, close to the Shdema military outpost. Yehudit Katsover makes a call to the commander of the Etzion Brigade, to update him.
 
Under the Aegis of the Dutch Government
             We continue toward our second stop: the Netzer Hill, that is situated between Elazar and Alon Shvut. Nadia cruises in her vehicle up on the rocky hill. Arab and Jewish agricultural plots are scattered around, all mixed together. Nadia and Yehudit go into the field almost every day, and it's obvious that they are totally familiar with the area. To the right, close to the fence of the community of Elazar, is an agricultural plot that an Arab has taken over. "He planted grape vines here," Katsover says, and explains that by taking over the lands adjoining the fence, the Arabs hope to prevent the expansion of the communities. Nadia hands me an up-to-date contour map. "In this region there are hundreds of dunams that are defined as state lands. In the past two years the Arabs, who are financed by international bodies, have been accelerating the takeover of the land. They are acting at an insane pace in order to prevent Jewish settlement continuity between Elazar, Alon Shvut, and Efrat. A stubborn struggle is being waged here for every piece of land," Nadia says, and points to a metal sign proudly standing in one of the plots, teaching that the Dutch government is financing and aiding the Arab residents in the area to steal their land.
 
            The initial activity at Netzer began as the private initiative of a number of families from the community of Elazar, who felt that they cannot remain apathetic in light of the reality of the theft of more and more state lands. With their meager resources they went out into the field and began to build and plant grape vines and olive trees. "They understood that it was impossible to stand by and wait for the state to be so good as to do something about this, for precious time was passing, and there is no reality of a vacuum here. It;'s either us or them," Katsover states and wants to expand on the Palestinian method of the takeover of state lands. "They plant olive trees, and after ten years, in accordance with the law, claim ownership of the land. We have the Defense Minister closing his eyes here. When we try to build houses here, they destroyed them eight times. When we planted trees, we received endless [Civil Administration] orders. There is a distorted reality here, in which the political echelon, together with the Civil Administration, do not defend the state lands."
 
            "A lack of any response on our part invited further takeovers of state [land] areas," Nadia explains. "The Arabs, without any doubt, keenly smell weakness. It seems that in the end the responsibility for guarding Israel's lands will fall, as usual, on the shoulders of the little citizen. This is our message. When the government doesn't do, then we, the 'little people,'must arise and act. It definitely is possible to change. We call to everyone to join the struggle and aid us in taking these hills."
 
Galilee on Behalf of Gush Etzion
            "The beginning at Netzer was not at all simple," Nadia sighs, and describes how, for many weeks, a stormy conflict was waged between the Arabs and the Jewish inhabitants. The Arabs uprooted the dozens of grape vines that had been planted by Women in Green activists. In response, the Jewish activists planted a number of mature olive trees that were donated by farmers from the north. Already the next day the Arabs uprooted the trees, but the activists came back at night and replanted them.
 
            After a number of days, about ten Arabs came to the area, equipped with axes and electric saws, and they began to very violently cut down the olive trees. The Jewish residents of the area quickly ran toward the plot, and physically defended the trees. "Since then, there has been damage to the trees or to the irrigation pipes here and there. In the last two years the Arabs, with extensive international funding, have noticeably intensified the seizure of state lands. In order to try and prevent the Arabs from taking over the lands, we plant more and more olive trees and grape vines. What a wonderful feeling it is to plant a tree in Eretz Israel. To feel the land with the palms of your hands. With G-d's help, in this way we have already redeemed dozens of dunams of state lands," Nadia states with satisfaction.
 
            The professional assistance for the maintenance and nurturing of the plants at Netzer is given, on a volunteer basis, by Uri Plasse from the moshav of Sdeh Yaakov in Galilee. "Uri harnessed himself to the mission with outstanding dedication," Katsover says, with esteem. " Once or twice a week he leaves his large and flourishing farm in Galilee and comes here to work in the field." Plasse, for his part, relates to this totally naturally. "As far as I am concerned, this is the natural continuation of Zionism and settlement in Eretz Israel. Zionism is not a product with an expiration date, it rather continues to this very day," he says, during the last preparations for the coming plantings in the area, that will be conducted this week in public in honor of Tu bi-Shevat.
 
            A number of weeks ago, during a planting on Route 60, between the Gush Etzion junction and Efrat, Nadia and Yehudit spotted a Palestinian Authority police car driving freely. They couldn't believe their eyes. Nadia quickly pulled out a camera and documented it. When the Palestinian police spotted her, they unhesitatingly responded with a "V" victory sign. "We rubbed our eyes. The Palestinian police is traveling among us, with no problems, and in such a challenging way. We immediately called the army to determine how this was possible. This is a change in policy," Nadia notes, and explains that until recently the Palestinian police were forbidden from leaving the bounds of Area A, and in the transit points between one area and another they were required to have coordination and an escort of IDF soldiers. "The concessions granted to the Palestinian police are unreasonable, and we must not become accustomed to this,"she states decisively.
 
            An additional expression of the lack of Israeli rule in the field is what the two call the "greenhouse intifada." Anyone who traveled in the past two months in the Judea region could not help noting that many dozens of large and brand-new agricultural greenhouses that were built for the Arab inhabitants have sprung up like mushrooms after the rain in Areas B and C. Within a short period, many dozens of greenhouses have been erected. It should be clear - this is not by chance. This is a new intifada - the greenhouse intifada, and this is totally orchestrated and organized," Nadia Matar warns. "When I travel on the road between Efrat and Tekoa, or in the southern Hebron hills between Kiriat Arba and Otniel, wherever I look I see greenhouses. They've surrounded the Adorayim camp, too, with a lot of greenhouses. They're really choking the camp. This is an unacceptable situation," Matar says.
 
The Civilians Who Brought Back the IDF
            Nadia, the mother of six and a resident of Efrat, was born in Antwerp, Belgium. She came to Israel as an olah at the age of 18. She studied education and Jewish history at the Hebrew University in Jerusalem, where she met her husband, Dr. David Matar. Together with her mother-in-law Ruth, some 18 years ago, she established the Women in Green organization. Matar, who gained fame in the past by her conspicuous presence at demonstrations of the right, changed her strategy over the years. Now she advocates focusing on action and on establishing facts on the ground. "I reached the conclusion that in a country like ours demonstrations alone are a waste of energy. It's more effective to establish facts on the ground. To build, to plant, to settle. True, the struggle for the lands is intensive and daily, but we will triumph only if we demonstrate constancy and determination. Quiet and organized demonstrations are not enough. The whole world must understand that we are determined in the struggle for Eretz Israel," Nadia says, with Katsover nodding her head in agreement.
 
            Katzover (63), the wife of Zvi Katzover, the former head of the Kiriat Arba Council, came to Israel as an olah from Transylvania, as a girl. She has been living in Kiriat Arba "from the Kiriah's first day," and was one of the women who settled with their children in Beit Hadassah in Hebron in 1979 and lived there about a year, under extremely difficult conditions. At present Katsover is the director of the teaching program in the Kiriat Arba-Hebron College.
 
            They began their shared path during the time of the upheaval that followed the expulsion from Gush Katif, and since then they see eye to eye in the diverse range of their activities.
 
            The first struggle together was for the opening of the Zaatra bypass road that connects eastern Gush Etzion with Har Homa and Jerusalem. "The road was open for Arabs. Unlike them, the Jews had to travel via Efrat and the tunnels road. Instead of a trip of approximately 6 minutes, they had to travel roundabout, for a trip of almost an hour." After an extended struggle, together with many activists, the road was opened to traffic.
 
            Immediately afterwards the two geared up for the abandoned military camp of Shdema in eastern Gush Etzion. Completely by chance, they learned of the intent to annex the camp's lands to the town of Beit Sahour. "We read a report in Hatzofeh that within the context of the gestures [i.e., to the Palestinians], the Olmert government agreed to transfer the location, that is a five minute drive from Har Homa, a place which is the Israeli Area C, to the Palestinian Authority in order to build an Arab hospital. The site was used as an IDF base until it was abandoned two years earlier, in 2006," Nadia relates about the beginning of the struggle for Jewish possession of Shdema. "We took out maps, and we realized that this was an extremely strategic location. We understood that if this camp were to be handed over, it would endanger the Har Homa neighborhood and choke Gush Etzion. Obviously, this is secondary to the fact that this is the land of Eretz Israel, and it is absolutely forbidden to hand it over," she stresses.
 
            "We unquestionably had divine help," Katsover observes. "We arrived at the place the following day, and we found an Arab bulldozer already working to prepare the land. We understood that we had to act, the faster the better. The 'Committee for a Jewish Shdema' action committee was founded, that devoted itself to this issue with all its strength," Katsover says and quotes the words of Rabbi Harlap, who says that Eretz Israel is the central point in our generation. "It isn't enough to know these things theoretically," she adds, "rather, they must be translated into deeds. To take possession of and to expand in Eretz Israel."
                       
            The Palestinians asked to receive the camp at the top of the hill, claiming that they want to establish there an orthopedic hospital and a large playground. The site was even officially inaugurated in a highly impressive ceremony in which the Palestinian Prime Minister Salam Fayyad was present. Anarchists, leftists, and international bodies came to the assistance of the Arabs. In order to remove Shdema from Jewish hands, colossal budgets flowed from various sources in the world. "They didn't really want to establish a hospital there, but they understood that Israel could not say 'No' to such a humanitarian request. Beit Sahour has dozens of dunams of land in their town, why did they insist on receiving Shdema, specifically?" Katsover asks, and explains that the camp controls Har Homa and the Tekoa-Jerusalem road. "That's why they wanted it. It came to the stage that all that was needed was the approval of the political echelon in order to finally turn over the camp. Only a single signature of Defense Minister Ehud Barak would have been enough for us to lose the struggle. We didn't agree to just give up. We saw the struggle for Shdema as the struggle for Jerusalem," she emphasizes.
 
The Power of an Additional Tree
            In order to ensure the camp's future, a diverse range of lectures, classes, and exhibitions were conducted at the site on weekends. Hundreds arrived from all over the country to participate in the activity, and thereby lend a hand to maintaining a Jewish presence at Shdema. At the same time, a lobby was formed of Knesset members who were involved in this matter. From the other side, much pressure was exerted from the direction of European and American organizations and the Palestinian Authority, with the intent of advancing the handing over of the area. The Jewish presence there, along with attempts by leftist activists, anarchists, and Palestinians to take control of the area, often led to harsh confrontations between the sides.
 
            After a stubborn two-year struggle, it was decided that the IDF would reestablish the military camp at Shdema. Nadia and Yehudit warmly praise the decision. We go to visit the soldiers serving at the base. The IDF soldiers staying there receive us very nicely, and are completely unaware of the lengthy struggle over the future of their base, which was replete with international interests, that was waged until recently.
 
            During the course of the patrol, I am witness to a telephone call from the residents of the Har Homa neighborhood who want to urgently report about Arab tractors engaged in earthmoving close to the fence of their neighborhood. A quick check reveals that this is indeed state land, and the message by Nadia and Yehudit is clear: "Go into the field as quickly as possible, and establish facts on the ground." "We have to be aware of what's happening here," Katsover says. "The struggle for the land is being waged everywhere. We have to leave behind our apathy. We have to be alert. Another tree and another flower can change reality."

From Elisheva Federman, a request of help, Carlebach Family and Federman Families and the destruction of "illegal" Jewish homes

bs"d

I sometimes amaze myself with the wealth of material I get within the span of 15 minutes on the internet. Thank you to Arieh Zaritsky of Eretz Yisroel Shelanu, Michelle Nevada and Jpost for sending many of  the links below.. 

2005 Gush Katif,  Listen to Katsav talk in Hebrew about the legality of the Prime Minister of Israel to implement the expulsion of  Jews from their homes in Gush Katif and how he has full confidence in Israel's legal system.  This "just" legal system now turned against him and created his own personal destruction.

Moshe Feiglin, Moshe Katzav and Punishment for Supporting Jews Expulsion
    (H) http://www.sos-israel.com/index.asp?pageID=45042&siteLang=3
Video: Katzav is Confident in the Israeli Court (H) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zHUouVaegGo

Apparently, Israel's court system is impotent to allow  building in Judea and Samaria.  All of the territories are under the jurisdiction of the Defense Ministry.  Ehud Barak it seems has total power over whether the communities in Judea are built or they stagnate.  He decides whether or not they get permits.  ( Talk about taxation w/o representation! ) Perfect reason for a tea party.  Why should residents of Judea and Samaria  pay their taxes to a government that gives control over their lives into the hands of one individual by the name of Ehud Barak  because he happens to be the Defense Minister????  Their gov't is officially the defense dept since they are not annexed by Israel.   Read about Maaleh Adumim's and Ariel's struggle.

Ma'aleh Adumim and Ariel beg PM to okay new building


Rather than submit to the "legalities" of strangulation, believers in the Torah, families like the Federman's and the Carlebach's build their homes, plant their gardens and raise their sheep and goats, chickens ducks and horses to  fulfill G-d's promise of abundance and prosperity. 

By this very "illegal act", they become enemies of the State of Israell and are treated accordingly.  It happened 2 and 1/2 years ago to the Federmans and now once again to the Carlebach's.
 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuo7ay_rmgs

  
 These two acts of destruction,  share in common  total disregard of any human decency and demonstrate purposeful intent to generate the maximum  emotional trauma to the lives of a mother and her child/children.  It seems almost impossible for this to have been executed by a Jewish soul since it is devoid of anything that we recognize as compassion the trademark of a Jew.

Noam Federman's Home Destroyed by Government Goons


It's time to raise h-ll.  The Gov't of Israel is acting in Solidarity with a Fascist Islamic Palestinian State and are allowing the Arabs who reject Jewish Sovereignty and embrace a Fascist Islamic Palestinian State to build while putting a stop to Jewish building. 

In addition, the gov't of Israel allows this Muslim population to grow up educated to glorify sacrificing children as martyrs in the name pf Shahid and the Holy War as they rejoice in the wedding of their martyrs in their H-ly Union in the afterworld. 

Martyrs and terrorist prisoners source of pride for Palestinian families

Kol Hakavod Robin.
You should know, that for us, the people who try to hold strongly this Holy Land, against a strong hostile government and Arab terrorist- your support is very meaningful. We would not have been able to face these challenges on our own. All of your initiatives are blessed.

Looking at the video of young Mrs. Carlebach, took me back to the terrible night two and a half years ago, when my home was bulldozed and I was thrown to the street with my 9 children. Baruch Hashem we held the Brit of our 10th child at the place the house used to be, only 8 month after the demolition. Now we have returned to live there. I am attaching a letter I've sent a few weeks ago asking people to help us return to our farm. We are still trying stubbornly to hold on to our little plot of land, in Hebron mountains. We do so, for the sake of our people, land and to do Kiddush Hashem. You, and many good Jews which live overseas, but are with us completely in heart and mind, make it possible for us.

May Hashem be with all of us, בעזרת ה' נעשה ונצליח
Shavua Tov.

Dear Friends,

 

My name is Elisheva Federman.  I am the wife of Noam Federman and the mother of 10 children.  We are living on a farm next to the holy city of Hebron.

 It is very rare to find people who have the means and decide to support the right activities.  Most wealthy people are not very responsive to the on-going struggle of Jewish identity for people like us.  Our enemies have so much support from all over the world, and most wealthy Jews prefer to support left-winged groups, who help our enemies.

I assume you have some knowledge of who my husband is, and what he went through, being a most devoted son of our nation.  During 20 years of marriage, I have found out how hard this kind of life can be.  I gave birth to half of my children while Noam was in prison, under different administrative detentions.  Nonetheless, I continued raising our family in the holy city of Hebron.  I feel thankful to the One Above, for giving me the strength to do so.

After the terrible disengagement, Noam was released from a three year term of house arrest.  We then considered how to serve the Jewish people in a more beneficial way.  We felt the only strong and proper response to that horrible act by the Israeli government, was for Jews to go out to the small "settlements" and redeem the Holy Land of Israel.  So we used our life savings (it was 200,000 NIS which is an enormous fortune for people like us) and invested it in a small plot of land close to Hebron.  (We love Hebron so much; we needed to stay within walking distance of the Tomb of the Patriarchs.)

We built a house and planted trees: olives, figs, pomegranate, grapevines, and other fruit trees that our beloved country is blessed with.

We have also bought some goats, chickens, ducks, and horses and established a little Jewish farm.  Changing our lifetime habits to this new life of working on the land was difficult.  First of all, because we had no knowledge or experience with the management and problems of farm life, and secondly, because the authorities have been fighting us every step of the way.  They have tried on more than one occasion to expel us from this land.  Like ba'aley t'shuva, we have studied the land and learned how to work it.  No words can describe the elation we feel, becoming one with the Land of Israel.  But, as I said, the authorities have been attacking us time and time again.  It started when they disconnected us from water and electricity, continued when they arrested us for illegal building and the climax was the cruel destruction of our house two years ago.  They came in the middle of the night, with no warning, arrested Noam and the oldest girls (aged 17 and 16 at the time), threw me and the little children out of the house, and demolished it, with all our belongings in it, right in front of our eyes.  In a short two hour period of time, they destroyed what took us a lifetime to build.

Two days later, I found out that I was pregnant with our tenth child.  I felt it was a miracle. With Hashem's help we held his Brit Mila ceremony at the renovating farm. No words can describe our feeling…

People have gathered to help us to restore our life.  Money was collected for furniture and other items that needed replacement.  However, the damage was so great, we have managed to recover less that one-third of what we lost.

Today we live in a small wooden shed on our farm.  With a lot of hard work and strong faith, we have cleared the ruins of our farm and started to build again.  We believe that only if we remain strong and persistent will we be able to keep this land and never loose it again.

I am writing you this letter because we need help to continue what we have started: we need to fix the house for the winter, we have no insulation, and the hills of Hebron get very cold in the winter.  We have to cover the house and make it dry and warm.  We want to renovate the animal pen and bring in new goats.  We want to plant grapevines, to replace the grapevines which were destroyed by the police.  We want to restore the farm to the condition it was in before.  Or perhaps even improve it….

If you identify with our goal to redeem and revitalize this Holy Land, near the City of Our Forefathers - please help us.

 

May G-d bless you in all of your endeavors; for the compassion you have shown to the people of Israel, and the concern you have shown for the Land of Israel.

 

Yours sincerely,

Elisheva Federman

My last email was an example of A typical Palestinian News Flashl. It was making fun as you must have figured out..

bs"d

The last email must have confused you  but as you most probably figured out, it was a  Parody PRESS RELEASE written from the perspective of a radical Islamist Palestinian. Even though  it was a spoof, t the facts of how Israel treated the Carlebach, Federman families and Od Yosef Chai Yeshiva is sadly all true.

Israel is under pressure to offer gestures in the name of "peace" to receive acceptance and approval from the international community, especially the United States.  Israel is expected to show that it is serious about the establishment of a Palestinian State and is  moving forward in a positive direction to help the "Peace Process"..

If these gestures are inadequate as far as the United States is concerned, they might withdraw necessary military support and aid to Israel. 

In order to satisfy the United Sates, Israel is forced to pick Karbanot, sacrifices in the name of peace.  The Carlebach Family, Federman family and Od Yosef Chai have been the chosen sacrifices.

From a radical Muslim perspective, these sacrifices  will never suffice since coexistence is not the goal but eliminating Israel is.   These sacrifices are inhumane to those affected and only serves to damage Israel's position rather than strengthen it. 

Israel can not rely on America for its Salvation.  They can only rely on G-d's Salvation and our unwavering belief in G-d's Eternal Promise "leZaracha Etein Es Haaretz", to your seed will I give this Land.

Please read the Press Release with this in mind. Note that the Arabs will not counter Israel's gesture with their own gestures of peace. Rather they will minimalize the concession and press for more concessions until they reach their desired goal which is all.

bs"d

(a predictable)  PRESS RELEASE from the Palestinian perspective  written for Arabs only after Israel offers very painful and hurtful  concessions:


NEWSFLASH:  Israel's gestures promote peace in occupied territories in the West Bank
In a pitiful display of solidarity with FATAH  the Gov't of Israel has demonstrated their determination to target individual obstacles to the "Peace Process". 

 On the night of December 15, 2010, police forces snuck into the community of Tekoa and destroyed the home of Mayan and Yigal Carlebach clearly occupying a hilltop. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iuo7ay_rmgs 
(ed. this Youtube is only too real and not a spoof.  Subsequently to this youtube, the Carlebach family is on their way to building a bigger and better house beezrat Hashem)

The suffering and human rights violations of the Palestinian people have gone on too far! This is clearly a poor attempt of Israel's to satisfy the Obama Administration desire in support PLO's plan to build facts on the ground that will make it more difficult for Israel to maintain control over Judea, Samaria and Jerusalem.

It is justice but just scratching the surface.  The gov't of Israel is doing a bare minimum to respond to the ongoing victimization and brutal human rights violations of the Palestinian people whose lives are made miserable day after day watching homes like the Carlebachs being built.  How dare they defy the Jewish FREEZE that is imposed on the the entire West Bank and even in Jerusalem under the unofficial policy of the Israeli Government.  Surely building such homes is the ultimate act of provocation by extremist settlers and provoke unbearable levels of frustration. that brings Palestinian rock throwers, arsonists and suicide martyrs into action.  

Our children are taught the glorification of martyrdom and the beauty of Jihad in the name of Allah under Israel's watchful eye in places such as "annexed" East Jerusalem.  Ending Jewish Occupation in Palestine is the final solution to the Jewish Problem in Palestine. This is a pittance of what Israel must do in order to bring about a true and lasting peace in the region.

This is only 1 of many homes in Tekoa.  So what if it was hand built by the father!  Count how many other Jewish homes occupy Tekoa!  They all must follow suit.

The Gov't of Israel has targeted another racist extremist settler and her family by the name of Elisheva Federman from the Hebron area.  This mother of 10 had the audacity to call an Arab that murders a Jew an animal!  What a racist statement and an insult to the entire Palestinian population.  After all, what animal murders Jews in the name of Shahidism.  Name me even one.  She's a liar! How can we be even compared to an animal.  If she would have called us Jihad freedom fighters, than that would have been much a more accurate description.  But Calling us an animal?  For this she deserves a much stiffer punishment then the  court ordered jail sentence leaving her 10 children and husband to fend for themselves  and/or pay a 4,000 shekel fine. 

The Federman's have a history of trouble making and the police bulldozed their home last year in the middle of night, 1:00am to be accurate, w/o warning of course.  The kids had no place to go and had to witness the destruction of their home leaving then homeless.  After all, considering the trauma the Palestinians have suffered under Israel occupation, it is the proper way to deal with radical settlers who wish to do nothing better than occupy Palestinian land brick by brick.  But this too is a mere pittance. 

There are thousands of Jewish homes in Hebron and surrounding areas who are occupying Palestinian Land.  Why should the Gov't of Israel treat them any better than the Carlebach's or Federman's.  And while the police is at it, they had better get to work in some of the larger cities such as Tel Aviv and Haifa which were built over Arab villages.

Another insignificant act of Solidarity with the Palestinian Liberation Autonomy was taken by the Government of Israel against the radical extremist Yeshiva Od Yosef Chai iin Samaria who employs radical, blood thirsty "Rabbinic" scholars who call for the blood of  nonJewish children.  Just withholding government subsidies for these blood thirsty hoodlums won't do anything.  Taking away a third of their operating budget is like a minor slap. They deserve complete alienation and isolation and should be removed from civil society.  Otherwise, allowing them to spout such malicious  propaganda with their  hate filled  racist ideology calling for the blood of  non Jewish children surely deserves a bloody response in return. Not a mere withholding of funds.

With these minuscule steps, does Israel really think they have contributed significantly towards the Peace Process and made any real progress whatsoever toward a true and lasting Peace that will once and for all end the Jewish Occupation of the Palestinian Homeland?   When will Palestine be Liberated once and for all and all traces of all Jewish presence removed and annihilated?????  Surely this proves that we have a noble cause in supporting resistance to the ongoing occupation of the Jewish people on Palestinian homeland. Not only is this a worthy endeavor but obligatory as commented by an Arab MK of the Israeli Knesseti)
