Another Gush Katif or Amona about to occur???Help Save Migron now......

bs"d

Rabbosai, If we act now hopefully we can prevent another Gush Katif or another Amona (watch this Amona video in order to see what can happen chas Veshalom.  for mature audiences only due to  violence)

 Yasher Koach to Knesset Member Rav Yisroel Eichler of Yahadut HaTorah who spoke up in his recent visit to Ulpana in Beit El (h) following the destruction of several homes in Migron. Rav Eichler said:

"Here there is cruelty that I would not expect from a malicious non Jewish government and certainly not of Jews.  Here there are brutal court rulings  against children.  One needs to know that the law of Beit El is the same as Tel Aviv. Attacking Torah and attacking a Jewish community is one and the same.  The destruction of houses is a detachment of Judaism." 

Please send those emails to the Knesset Members as instructed below by mattot arim. 

In addition, please write to Rav Shlomo Kook (ko@vmail.co.il), a close assistant to Rav Eliashiv, to ask Rav Eliashiv to speak up publicly,  like MK Eichler to denounce the blatant violations of the Written and Oral Torah by the Gov't of Israel  and that it had better stop! Extensive media coverage most welcome(See below the Honenu email sent by Shalom Pollack and the disturbing  links). 

It is  clear that initially many Gedoilei Hatorah and Moetzes Gedolei Hatorah were against the "Hitnatkut". (see Hamodia article of 12 Cheshvan 5745 (2005) )

On 24 Teves 5745 (2005)Hamodia reported that 290 million Shekalim was allocated to the Yeshivoth in return for UTJ joining the Coalition thereby leaving the 8,000 Jews of Gush Katif on their own.  (There however was an anguished outcry of Chareidim who attempted to prevent the tragic expulsion from Gush Katif. These can be found in Rabbi Yissocher Dov Rumplers Sefer entitled "Halacha Berura".) 

In 2007 Rav Perlow went especially to Eretz Yisroel asking a Sheila regarding division of Yerushalyim and reported at the Agudah Convention that Rav Eliashiv clearly gave a Psak against dividing Jerusalem and we must proclaim it Bechol Hatokef (Agudah Convention 2007, Motzei Shabbos address by Rav Perlow). Are we abiding with his ruling? At the time activists for Eretz Yisroel Hashleim were disappointed that no message was stated against a Palestinian State.  (However, that would have been politically incorrect and in opposition to American Foreign Policy of the times which promoted a Palestinian Statehood but still supported a United Jerusalem.)    

Odelia Jacobs has documentation that Rabbi Morgenstern in Eretz Yisroel was told the same by Rav Eliashiv regarding our obligation to become activists in this matter.  

In 2008 I wrote in my blog.  I personally spoke to Hadas Rav Eliashiv's secretary and to Rav Efrati.  They both said that if a Mishlachat of Chashuva Rabbanim including Rav Perlow, Rav Kamenetsky, Rav Matisyahoo Solomon, Rav Malkiel Kotler would come to Israel with an entourage of other chashuva Rabbanim to ask Rav Eliashiv to speak out for our entitlement of Eretz Yisroel is would be "mashpia".  My understanding is that Rav Eliashiv who is bli ayin hara around 97 years old needs to know that his people will back him up. There is no question that all the Rabbanim believe of our entitlement especially Rav Eliashiv.  The Novaminsker himself reported that Rav Eliashiv said that giving away Land makes the security situation worse.  The Novaminsker himself acknowledged that Gush Katif was a disaster (at Agudah conventions last year).  Even Satmar can not disagree of our entitlement because this is Torah.  However, all are afraid to state so publicly.  Maybe their concern is what if the Nations of the world express a backlash at the very notion of us insisting on our Land just like Pharoh made it worse for the Jews when Moshe Rabbeinu asked Pharoeh to let the Jews go.  Moshe Rabbeinu asked Hashem "Lama Hareiosa?"  Why did you make it worse after I spoke up.  Rav Eliashiv needs to know that each and every Jew wants Eretz Yisroel very badly and only then will we Am Yisroel have the Zechus of keeping Eretz Yisroel.

The Gush Katif disengagement is about to recur -- Netanyahu is about to decimate Migron, a Shomron community  with bulldozers; this action is slated for February or March, probably in about 6 weeks.

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/151828

Do not assume that Netanyahu would "never let that happen"; so far he IS letting it happen, actively, and just to remind you- Netanyahu did vote IN FAVOR OF bulldozing Gush Katif (see youtube link - in the Hebrew above). There is one hopeful sign in an increasing cloud of gloom: the coalition steering committee has just announced it will allow all coalition members to vote their conscience ("chofesh hazbaa" - freedom to vote - in Hebrew).

Giving "chofesh hazbaa" will allow the urgent Outpost Legalization Law to pass despite the Prime Minister's objections; this would save Migron. http://www.jpost.com/DiplomacyAndPolitics/Article.aspx?id=253367

Kindly RUSH to email the 5 members of the coalition steering committee:  zelkin@knesset.gov.ilrilatov@knesset.gov.il;uorbach@KNESSET.GOV.ILieichler@KNESSET.GOV.IL;amichaeli@knesset.gov.il. 

Your email (feel free to draft it yourself!!) might, for example, say:

"Subject: KNESSET LEADERS:  SAVE MIGRON!! PLS GIVE "CHOFESH HAZBAA!!" -

Dear Distinguished leaders of the Israeli Knesset: Zeev Elkin from Likud, Robert Ilatov from Yisrael Beytenu, Uri Orbach from National Religious Party, Yisrael Eichler from United Torah Jewry and Avraham Michaeli from Shas: PLEASE SAVE MIGRON! Your decision to give all MKs IMMEDIATE freedom to vote their conscience on saving the young Shomron communities including Migron is very brave. Thank you for thinking of this clever and positive democratic solution; please honor our Zionist sentiment by making it happen immediately!"

Please also call ministers Lieberman, Hershkowitz and Eli Yishai (if you are calling specially from abroad - say so -- it makes a huge impression) and say: "I would like to leave a message for the minister about saving Migron." When asked to continue, say something like: "We ask that your party make sure all Knesset members have "chofesh hazbaa" to vote for regularizing Migron and other communities. Phone numbers:

Hello to all of you,

 

This note is a request for your help. Our older daughter, Aviela, is living with her family (husband and 6 children) in the community of Migron. This name may be familiar to you because there have been stories in the media about it within the past few months. Migron is in the Shomron and has been an established community since the 1990's - with the help and support of the Israeli government. From its establishment to the present, there has never been a problem between Migron and its several Arab neighboring communities. Within the past year, however, the group called Peace Now has brought suit, claiming that the land is owned by Palestinians. The Supreme Court gave them a deadline date by which they were to submit documentation to prove this alleged ownership. They were unable to do so. There is, however, the remains of an archaeological excavation from some years ago which proves that the land on which Migron stands was Jewish.

 

Legislation is now being considered in the Knesset which would officially classify Migron as a legal settlement, on similar grounds as others have used to remove their established settlements from the risk of demolition by the government. Please use this link: http://migron.kef.li/ to easily contact the remaining Knesset members whose support is not secure. You can write in English or Hebrew, whichever is most comfortable for you. It takes only a few minutes and there are many families with young children who are depending on help from the rest of us to secure their homes. Also, please forward this letter to others you know so that they, also, can add their voices to this cause.

 

Thanks, and Shabbat shalom,

Abbe and David

New Police Tactic: Yitzhar Resident Arrested for Child Neglect

Children thrown out in the freezing cold in Mitzpeh Avichai.

The Israeli police arrested this morning a Yitzhar resident for investigation on suspicion of child neglect after taking two of his children to visit the Ramat Migronoutpost in Binyamin before the destruction. Three weeks ago, he brought his children there to visit the place and give support to the residents. At six o'clock this morning black-clad Yassam (Special Forces) police banged on the door of the family home and arrested the father of the children, who was taken to the Ariel Police Station for investigation. An attorney fromHonenu, an Israeli legal aid organization, is working to secure the release of the father.

The spokesman of Yitzhar, Avraham Binyamin, strongly criticized the conduct of the police and mentioned that only last week Yassam police threw babies and children out of their homes in Mitzpeh Avichai into the freezing cold. See video. "Again the police are conducting themselves like cruel thugs under the pretense of upholding the law", said Binyamin.

Last year many Jewish citizens were outraged at the selective enforcement of demolition orders against Jews and Arabs, which was a 2:1 ratio in favor of the 
Arabs: Jewish homes were twice as likely to be destroyed as Arab homes. Today one mainly hears about Jewish homes being demolished.

Last week, five nationalists, after texting their friends and neighbors to come protest demolitions of Jewish homes, were charged with conspiracy to commit a riot among other charges. These five will be under house arrest with no telephone, internet or communication access until the end of trial which could as much as a year from now.

Demonstators injured at Amona

Remember Amona

Six years ago, one of the most horrendous acts carried out by the Israel Police was the beating of protestors at Amona. Over a thousand Israeli nationalists gathered to demonstrate against the demolition of nine Jewish homes. The police did not arrest, but clubbed the protestors mercilessly. Over 300, mostly youth, male and female, received blows to their heads. Ehud Olmert, Prime Minister at the time, refused to investigate. Even left wing Betzelem had to admit the cruel brutality. This upsetting video shows actual footage of the brutal beatings.
