Atem Nitzavim.... Each one of us according to our capabilities...
..."But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the Land from before you, then those whom you leave over will be as spikes in your eyes and thorns in your sides, and they will harass you in the land in which you settle."
Now is the Time for Tikkun Chait HaMiraglim. To speak out with strength regarding Hashem's Promise to Am Yisroel re: Eretz Yisroel and the Covenant with our Forefathers!.
Rosh Chodesh Av:
I understand that tonight July 27, 2014, there is a rally in Queens organized by Chazak! CHAZAK CHAZAH VENITCHAZEK!!!!
Rabbosai....
What is missing is moral clarity based on Torah that Israel must defend itself and that Judea and Samaria and Gaza is within delineated borders of Israel according to the Torah Portion Reading in Parshat Masei. I have heard Israel's friends like Mike Huckabee and Michelle Bachman quote from the Torah about the Promised Land which is Israel's rightful Inheritance. They firmly believe that those who Bless Israel is Blessed and fully back Israel's right to defend itself, and Israel's moral right based on Torah. Why can't we?

Judaism: Gaza Israel: Our Halacha, Our History, Our Security are Tied to Gush Katif Published: Monday, March 15, 2004 by Menachem Kovacs ...
There is a two-fold case for Israel to retain Gush Katif and indeed to seek to include all of the boundaries G-d defines as the Biblical Holy Land of Israel. Those two reasons are (1) religious reasons based on Halacha (Jewish Law) and the subsequent nationalistic and historical consequences based on Halacha and (2) national security considerations based on maximum protection of both the People and the Land and the resources of both. ...most all of the Biblical commentators maintain that Gaza is within the boundaries of Shevet Yehuda in Biblical Eretz Yisrael (see Genesis 15, Joshua 15:47, Kings 15:47 and Judges 1:18) and therefore it also has the Halachic requirement to be settled (and therefore certainly not abandoned). Most commentators also require tithes to be taken from the produce grown in Gaza as is required of all produce grown in the Land of Israel and this is the practice today. (Ruth Matar has noted that the Hebrew terms "Mitnachlim" is frequently mistranslated with the pejorative and misleading translation "settlers" whereas the correct translation is "inheritors" of the Land G-d promised to the Jewish People forever.)
Rabbi Yaakov Emden answered a Shayla about whether living in Gaza fulfills the Biblical commandment to live in the Land of Israel with the clear and emphatic ruling:
"Gaza and its environs are absolutely considered part of the Land of Israel without a doubt. There is no doubt that it is a Mitzvah to live there as in any part of the Land of Israel."
