Dear List, amv"sh
As you can see below I sent a link of this Artutz7 report to Rabbanim and to the local media. This is another incident to add to the latest string of settlement bashing occurrences. I am CCing the Friends of IDF. I am CCing Hineni.org so they can forward to Reb. Esther Jungreis who recently spoke at a Long Island Dinner of the FIDF (Friends of the IDF). I suspect that this news report of the destruction of the budding Jewish neighborhood Gal Aryeh outpost and all its sordid details will come as a shock to them as it did to me..
Three permanent homes, a synagogue and two other structures were destroyed by police bulldozers and Civil Administration workers. During the destruction, the control panel, electrical system and computer of the special security surveillance system installed by the Shomron (Samaria) Regional Council following the murders was also destroyed. The system had been purchased with funds provided by property taxes collected by the residents and contributed by private donors.
Israel's Defense Ministry provided no funds to assist with the purchase of the system for the community's defense.
Two families and five singles were left homeless in the nighttime raid.
Reading about this recent demolition is especially disturbing to those of us in America who contributed to the security surveillance system at Itamar. Apparantly it seems as if the IDF did not appreciate (was not MACHSHIV in Hebrew) this expensive security equipment in Judea and Samaria. Why did it have to come from only the locals and private donations? (I suppose we must be grateful that they confiscated the Sifrei Torah's during this operation even though they bashed the Aron Hakodesh and desecrated other holy objects. Who knows what would have happened to the Sifrei Torah had they not been confiscated )
To be responsible directly or indirectly of the destruction of the security surveillance system after what happened in Itamar, is unforgivable! This requires an investigation as per who authorized this operation and who supervised it.
Oh, I almost forgot to comment on the destruction of 3 homes and about leaving families and singles homeless in the middle of the night. I suppose we've become accustomed to that kind of story....
I hope that after reading this material, Friends of the IDF will use their influence to protest the selective way the IDF is protecting Israelis whereby those living in Judea and Samaria are treated as second class not worthy of being protected or defended.

From Todays News in Arutz7:

In the middle of the night, they came - again - and ransacked a budding Samaria neighborhood. This time, Gal Arye.

My comments:
It is very painful to acknowledge the bitter truth that the IDF under the Gov't of Israel is not only not defending Jews in Judea and Samaria but are actually employing Arabs to bash Jewish settlement and destroy their security systems . (I would like to know whether the gov't actually pays these Arabs to accomplish this mission . Surely this is a waste of money as they can find plenty of Arabs willing and happy to do the work for free) It is very painful for me to come to this conclusion and publicize but unless we speak up, we allow this phenomenon to continue. What choice do we have but to speak up even at the risk of embarrassing Netanyahu and/or the IDF. Surely they must be undergoing some serious pressures from the Obama administration.
While the IDF does not provide security for Judea and Samaria and actually allows the Arabs to smash Jewish settlement, Rebbetzin Jungreiss speaks at an IDF dinner saying that the Holocaust is happening again. Rebbetzin, of course we need to support Defense for Eretz Yisroel and support our solders. In all due respect, why should we give money to the IDF when they are abandoning Judea and Samaria the heartland of Israel? At least let us insist equal protection and defense for Judea and Samaria as a precondition of our donations to the IDF. We must never abandon Judea and Samaria because if we do, we abandon all flights coming into Ben Gurion airports and all low lying areas of Tel Aviv. Which airline would risk flying into Sderot (as Dovid Ha"ivri asked on his facebook page entitled
"Once again we are surrounded on every side by those who want to destroy us - and they don't hide it," says Rebetzin Esther Jungreis.
Bad enough to be surrounded by enemies. The worst part is when we are also surrounded from the inside by our own brothers and sisters instructed by the gov't of Israel. (my comments)
We have been promoting Honenu for good reason. Please read about it in this weeks Jewish VoiceNY issue, Nov. 28,2011 pages 8 and 9. Honenu was also promoted at Noisyroom.net blog entitled Standing Strong for Our Brothers and Arutz7. Another worthy Organization that I just read about in Arutz7 is called Regavim. Regavim, is an organization that works through the legal system to halt the ongoing mass illegal Arab building, and to ensure that Jews are not cheated out of their legal rights to develop Israel,
