From MattotArim: Important info if you can vote for Likud primary:
Hope you got our previous email on Likud voting tomorrow, here it is for you to re-read: http://mattotarim1.blogspot.com/2012/01/tuesdayimportant-likud-elections.html
Updates: Apart from the important Feiglin-Netanyahu contest, we now -- with everybody's help -- have assembled the names of many more "good guys" -- candidates who are FOR Yehuda and Shomron and against Palestinian state! These "good guy" candidates are listed in these 4 links:
New "good guys: http://mattotarim1.blogspot.com/2012/01/blog-post_644.html
Good guys dating back to Gush Katif struggle http://mattotarim1.blogspot.com/2012/01/blog-post_30.html
Special "good guys" list for Haifa http://mattotarim1.blogspot.com/2012/01/blog-post_9989.html
Last minute list of "good guys" whom we just heard about http://mattotarim1.blogspot.com/2012/01/blog-post_984.html
To vote beneficially, simply click on and go through the above 4 lists, and look for candidates in YOUR city or branch. Lists are alphabetical - Ashdod comes first (aleph), Tel-Aviv (taf) comes last. Copy down all the good guys in YOUR city/community, from all 4 lists. There is some duplication between the lists -- sorry about that.
Put that "good guys" list in your pocket or purse, since it is no-one's business but your own, and when you get into the voting booth, quietly take out your "good guys" list, and mark whatever "good guys" you find, on EACH of the 2 voting slips that you get. One of those slips will be for the all-important "central committee members" and one is for "moetzet ha-snif". There will be many names on each of the 2 voting slips -- you mark only the "good guys" among them!
PS. These "good guy" elections are not being held everywhere (for example -- NO "good guy" elections in Rehovot and in most places in Yehuda & Shomron), but in many other places, such as Jerusalem, Netanya, Petah Tikva, Raanana and Tel-Aviv: http://mattotarim1.blogspot.com/2012/01/blog-post_27.html there WILL be such elections.
If you live in Yehuda and Shomron, simply mark the candidates you know personally. We have not listed any particular "good guy" residents of Yehuda and Shomron because we figure ALL of them are "good guys"!
List of voting locations in each city/community (a little messy -- but that is what we could get): http://mattotarim1.blogspot.com/2012/01/blog-post_2940.html
Can you please pass this email on to other Likud voters who may not know what to do?
PLEASE MAKE SURE TO VOTE TOMORROW -- RAIN OR SHINE! YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU! Thank you!

Moshe Feiglin Video (h)(14:57)
8 Tevet '72/Jan. 3, '12
Moshe Feiglin's Speech at the Jerusalem Campaign Rally
Thank you, each and every one of you. Thank you for choosing to be part of the faith-based revolution. Thank you very much.
We are all servants of G-d. Not for honor and not for fame – there is nothing but Him.
The Minister of Education told me that schools in North Tel Aviv are requesting to visit the Cave of Machpelah. Would you have believed that two or three years ago?
Israel thirsts for meaning. Israel thirsts for the Judaism of liberty. Slowly but surely, a new consciousness is being created here; Jewish consciousness. A wondrous energy of life and hope is awakening the Nation of Israel as it begins to fulfill its destiny. It could be that this year we will be in a new stage of Jewish history; the stage in which most of the Jewish People are in their Land. We may reach that point for the first time since the First Temple. The only question that remains is when will this wonderful Jewish revolution dovetail with Jewish leadership; leadership that is aware of and committed to Jewish destiny; leadership that will assemble all these desires and give them direction and significance. That is our task – all of us. Nobody will do it instead of us.
That is why I have decided to announce my candidacy for chairmanship of the Likud and leadership of the State of Israel.
The Likud under my leadership will, with G-d's help, consolidate Israel around its Jewish identity and values.
The Likud under my leadership will, with G-d's help, restore the State of Israel to the Nation of Israel. Our state must be a Jewish state in its essence, not only in slogans. It must be a Jewish state in its society. It must be a Jewish state in its security. It must be a Jewish state in its economy and it must be a Jewish state in its justice system. Society, security, economy and justice.
Society in a Jewish state means first of all genuine Jewish education for every child in Israel. Society in a Jewish state means fortifying the status of the family with tax breaks, by enabling mothers to raise their children at home, by allocating a piece of the Land of Israel for free to every Jewish family. Society in a Jewish state means genuine liberty for every Israeli citizen, free and representative media, full human rights for all and political rights only for those who are faithful to the State of Israel as the state of the Jewish Nation.
He who believes does not fear a Jewish society.
Security in a Jewish state means, first of all, clear borders; the basic understanding that this is our Land by virtue of G-d's promise. Security in a Jewish state means declaration of sovereignty over all parts of the Land of Israel that is in our hands and that, by the way, word for word, is in the Likud constitution. Security in a Jewish state means fostering the emigration of all those who are not loyal to Israel as the state of the Jewish nation. Security in a Jewish state means restoring the concept of victory to the IDF. Today this concept has been neutered. It has disappeared from the IDF lexicon. Nobody talks about victory. Restoration of the concept of victory means the elimination of leadership – any leadership – that initiates a conflict with us; that should be noted by the Iranian leadership. Security in a Jewish state means power of deterrence; an offensive approach as a guarantee of peace. That is why, ladies and gentlemen, only someone who believes can bring security. Because he who believes is not afraid.
Jewish economy means first and foremost – liberty: A truly free economy - within the Jewish framework of faith and kindness. Only our Jewish culture has the proper balance that allows a truly free economy – capitalism – without sliding into the jungle that everyone fears. In other words, a free economy within the cultural framework of Jewish faith and kindness. Jewish economy means allocating welfare funds to the community. Only the community can really take care of those in need. Jewish economy means affordable housing for every Jew; first and foremost by allocation of the land to the public.
Justice in the Jewish state means first of all judges from the People and not from the UN. (ed: This is a play on words in Hebrew: am and oom). Justice in the Jewish state means completion of the legislation that would require public hearings for Supreme Court judges. Justice in the Jewish state means a constitution that preserves Israel's Jewish character and a Constitutional Court, elected by the public once in a decade, that will be the ultimate authority on national issues. Justice in the Jewish state means separating the role of the Attorney General from the role of State's Attorney. Justice in the Jewish state means gradual adoption of the Jewish law system.
Ladies and gentlemen, he who believes is not afraid to bring the Nation judges and a justice system that is from the people and not from the UN.
He who believes is not afraid to appoint a defense minister from the Likud!
He who believes is not afraid to build in the entire Land of Israel!
He who believes is not afraid of Jewish education and the Jewish family!
He who believes is not afraid and does not send soldiers to the Marmara with toy guns, humiliating the IDF.
He who believes is not afraid to return the infiltrators to their own countries. Just in the past month 3,000 of them infiltrated into Israel.
He who believes is not afraid to demand of Obama from every platform to free now, immediately, our brother Jonathan Pollard. (standing ovation)
I did not intend to talk about Jonathan Pollard; I have another few "I believes" here – but I see that the point about Jonathan Pollard evoked a standing ovation from you. I had the merit to visit our brother, my brother, Jonathan Pollard five or six times. Each time we engaged in long discussions. At a certain point I said to him, "You understand that for you to get out of prison, I have to be prime minister." No, it's not funny. And I asked him to do one thing: to pray.
He who believes is not afraid: Not of the High Court, not of the media and not of the Left – only of G –d.
He who believes is not afraid of our destiny.
He who believes is not afraid to return the Nation of Israel to the place that G-d chose; we will ascend to the Temple Mount to pray, to bring the Pesach offering, to make a pilgrimage three times a year. (Standing Ovation)
He who believes in G-d, ladies and gentlemen is not afraid to proclaim, "This is our Land and it is ours forever."
Thank you all. We have one short month to work hard; G-d will do His part and with His help, we will succeed!
(13:39 of video ends the speech with terrific singing and clapping מי שמאמין לא מפחד "One who believes in not afraid")

Dear Ohavei Eretz Yisroel, amv"sh
If we all forward and publicize this email and its information we can make a real difference to save the Settlements of Judea and Samaria. In the past few weeks expulsions of homes in Judea and Samaria are reminiscent of Gush Katif and Amona. If you need evidence that this is really happening with no exaggeration please see end of this email for links to youtubes and articles.
From Mattot Arim:
The important Likud Primaries will be held this Tuesday, Jan. 31 from 10 am to 10 pm. Only those who registered for Likud voting privileges at least 16 months ago, can vote. Also, you can vote only at the Likud branch where you were registered (can change your registered address - but not now, only after Tuesday for the NEXT elections). If you have not received a voting station notice in the mail, check your eligibility and voting location here. Just enter your te'udat zehut number and your voting station, if you are eligible, will appear on the screen.
1. General: YOU MUST BRING your teudat zehut or driver's license. RAIN IS EXPECTED -- PLAN TO VOTE ANYWAY. Sometimes you will find there is a very long line -- VOTE ANYWAY. Bring a newspaper to read and plan in advance that you may need 1 - 2 hours to get to the head of the line. (We hope it will be less!). We have requested access for the physically handicapped at all branches in view of past difficulties - we hope this request has been honored.
2. How to vote for Chairmanship of the Likud: There are two choices, Netanyahu and Moshe Feiglin. The first supports a Palestinian state just a bike-ride away from Tel-Aviv, Jerusalem and BG Airport and the second opposes this. So, please take the voting slip with the name "Moshe Feiglin" (משה פייגלין), put it in a white envelope that you will be given and insert in the blue voting box. If you are not comfortable voting for Mr. Feiglin, at least bring with you a slip on which you write "NO to Palestinian state, YES to Migron, NO to settlement bashing" (or similar) and put that in the blue voting box, to send a message to Mr. Netanyahu that you are NOT AT ALL happy with his disgraceful endorsement of Palestinian state and with his stubborn insistence on doing the bidding of the extreme left (Netanyahu is about to deport all 50 young families from the yishuv of Migron and is blocking the legislation intended to save this brave yishuv).
3. How to vote for your local Likud Committee Members (very important!!)
a. There are 2 separate ballots -- one for "chavrei merkaz" (also called "chavrei veida") and one for "chavrei moetzet snif" (also called "moetzet ha-snif").
b. In some places, you will NOT be voting for these, because in your particular branch, there were a small number of candidates and agreement was reached between them without even holding elections. You WILL be voting for committee members, if your branch is one of the following (click here): http://mattotarim1.blogspot.com/2012/01/blog-post_27.html
c. On both ballots, PLEASE FIRST LOOK for the names of the courageous committee members who bravely opposed Sharon's Gush Katif disengagement plan in 2004/5 and who are running again - their names are here:
GOOD GUYS LIST http://mattotarim1.blogspot.com/2012/01/blog-post_4740.html.
Please click on the above link, look for your city or branch, and copy down the "good guys" in YOUR city or branch only (for example -- if you are from Raanana, copy down ONLY the Raanana "good guys".
Bring those names with you on Tuesday. Look for them on all ballots -- they strongly deserve our support!!
In addition, you may hear of other, usually new, candidates who you KNOW FOR SURE are against Palestinian State and support Yehuda and Shomron. Here are examples of good new candidates, who oppose Palestinian state and support yishuvim and maachazim:
ירושלים - דוד איש-שלום, יהונתן לסי JERUSALEM
SHAFIR מועצה איזורית שפיר: אביאל טוקר. מרדכי יפרח. ציון אדרי. דנה זלינגר
RAMAT GAN רמת-גן - איזו חיימוביץ, קטי כהן, ברכה רוקח, נועה וילשטיין. איזוסלב צירולניקוב
RAANANA רעננה - ד"ר אהרן לרנר
If you know of more - please URGENTLY send their names, email addresses and cellphone numbers, and where are they standing for election (what branch) to us atmattot.arim@gmail.com.
d. We do NOT recommend which candidates to vote for in Yehuda and Shomron branches because we assume all LOCAL candidates in those branches are good and are known personally to the local voters.
e. If someone asks you to vote for "somebody", ask for the name, email address and cellphone of the somebody and are they FOR Yehuda and Shomron and AGAINST Palestinian state. If so, vote for them and send their particulars to us so we can make sure they do what they promised, in the upcoming years.
f. Do NOT vote for names you never heard of. Vote ONLY for names you know personally or that someone you absolutely know and trust knows personally, to be FOR Yehuda and Shomron and AGAINST Palestinian state.
4. THANK YOU FOR BEING A CARING, INVOLVED CITIZEN AND HAPPY VOTING ON TUESDAY. MANY THANKS TO THE MANY DEDICATED VOLUNTEERS WHO HELPED PUT THIS EMAIL TOGETHER.

We are delighted and honored to announce that the coalition's leaders (the faction heads of all coalition factions) have decided, as we all hoped and worked for, on freedom of conscience for the outpost legalization bill.
So, this bill can be and will be soon (probably this Wednesday) brought to vote in Knesset.
It is now our DUTY and PRIVILEGE to make sure every single minister votes for the bill!
Often ministers do not bother to vote in the Knesset. However this vote is going to be extremely close. So, each and every minister's finger will need to be waving in the air if we are to pass this bill - on this coming Wednesday, 1 February.
Please do your personal duty without delay: use one or more of the following: personal contact, fax, phone, email, SMS or Facebook-wall message -- to send your urgent appeal to each and every minister!!
Personal visit: If you can personally arrange to visit any one of the ministers -- at his home, neighborhood, synagogue, office or other -- that would be GREAT. If not, use these contact methods:
Telephone and fax numbers -- see : http://mattotarim1.blogspot.com/2010/08/tel-fax-nos-rightwing-ministers_05.html -- but do NOT contact Benny Begin, Silvan Shalom, Yakov Neeman, Yossi Peled, Netanyahu himself. We will explain why, in an upcoming email.
Email: An entire paragraph of relevant email addresses appears above in the Hebrew.
Facebook: Here are the links we found: http://www.facebook.com/silvan.shalom https://www.facebook.com/YuliEdelstein. You can write your message on the minister's wall!!
SMS: See many cellphone numbers of the ministers' political aides -- scroll up to the Hebrew.
Example message to fax, call in, SMS, email, etc: (feel free to write your own) SAVE MIGRON & OTHER YISHUVIM - COME TO KNESSET ON WED, VOTE FOR OUTPOST LEGALIZATION LAW!!
If you get a serious answer from any Minister, positive or negative, please URGENTLY LET US KNOW --mattot.arim@gmail.com awaits your inputs eagerly and gratefully - thank you very much!!
