Dear Nadia and Yehudit,

Firstly I find your newsletters excellent.

Best wishes,

Since the announcement of the Israel UAE peace deal there has been a lot of world euphoria especially as other Arab nations may follow suite.We can all imagine the great PR for the leaders of Israel , President Trump and other Arab nations shaking hands and signing a peace deal on the lawn of the White house prior to the US elections.This will be a great boost for the reelection of President trump who is a true friend of Israel.This can be seen as a "messianic sign" of the lion lying down with the lamb. 

There are many positive effects of the peace deal: El Al able to fly over Saudi Arabia, F35 jets to UAE to hopefully deter Teheran and allowing Israeli intelligence to be just within 100 miles of Iran. 

So what is my problem with the UAE peace deal? The deal was done on condition that all talk of sovereignty be dropped. UAE Foreign Ministry Director of Policy and Planning Jamal al-Musharakh stated "One of the prerequisites of the commencing of bilateral relations was the halting of annexation" Jerusalem Post Sept 1 , 2020. 

Jared Kushner came out openly and spoke about the establishment of a PA State.

Other Arab nations such as Saudi Arabia have stated that if they were to have a peace deal with Israel then Israel should retreat to pre 1967 borders and establish a Palestinian State as has Qatar's ruler Sheikh Tamim bin -alThani as reported in Jerusalem Post Sept 2, 2020. 

So I believe that as Israel is a democracy then the Land of Israel Lobby should put forward a bill demanding sovereignty over ALL of Judea and Samaria not just certain sections and with Hashem's help and our prayers such a resolution should be successful. 

Perhaps it would be wise to present such a bill to the Knesset after the US elections. What do you think?

In fact there is an amazing Rambam in this week's Rambam which says: 

"Messianic age will be life within the context of this world, with the world following its natural pattern except that sovereignty will return to Israel" 

Isn't that a powerful Rambam?

Why do I think David Friedman is pulling wool over our eyes in this recent interview in Hamodia?

Conversation With a Goodwill Ambassador

Here is  Ambassador David Friedman's remarks February 9, 2020 at the Jerusalem Center for Public Affairs regarding the Deal of the Century.

How does Ambassador Friedman  reconcile his former statements pushing for a Palestinian State made on Feb 9, 2020 and this interview in Hamodia. How does he reconcile his remarks in Hamodia reassuring us that a Palestinian State is not what we think it is with Jared Kushner's statement?

Please note that this was preceded by Trump's statement on Thursday that sovereignty was "more than just off the table," Israel has committed not to bring it up again.

Re your comment
"So I believe that as Israel is a democracy then the Land of Israel Lobby should put forward a bill demanding sovereignty over ALL of Judea and Samaria not just certain sections and with Hashem's help and our prayers such a resolution should be successful."

Amein! The bill you suggest should davka, purposefully happen before US elections. This is not to embarrass the Trump Administration who has been the best American administration for Israel that ever existed, but rather not to invoke G-d's wrath at the nullification of His Covenant with the mere suggestion of a Palestinian State. This suggestion that a Palestinian State is an option, is a grave mistake, and is more damaging to President Trump reelection campaign than any bad PR in response to  Israel applying Sovereignty in its ancestral homeland. 

America in turn should acknowledge Israel's right as a Sovereign State to declare it's own borders without outsiders meddling.
