Rabbi Eliyahu: Religious MKs Supporting Anti-Torah Terror Deal

In addition what about the Anti Torah, property destruction construction freeze?


One can not say that they believe in the Torah and keeping the Torah yet support a government whose higher authority is not Torah.

  One has to choose. 

If you choose to be part of  Likud or the Coalition and have policies implemented by Barak  then you are effectively a partner with them. You aren't forced to be partners with them.  It's your choice. Netanyahu and the Likud have made it the law  to control  the  property of Jews in Judea and Samaria and, steal livelihood  away from fellow Jews. 

For the religious MK's.  What's the point of sitting and learning all the Mesechtot of Baba Kama and Baba Metzia?   What about implementing Torah Law? Isn't Torah relevant for all times?

 If Steinmentz, Yaalon, Benny Begin and Zev Elkin don't want guilt pangs  let them resign in protest from the cabinet unless it is revoked ! Otherwise the natural consequence of their vote is  that it will be on their conscience .  I would not want to be in their shoes when they are called up in heaven in a higher court of law to face the settlers who lost  control of their homes and livelihood as a result of this law.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

 

AFSI APPLAUDS CALLS FOR END OF FREEZE

 

            Likud leaders, Finance Minister Yuval Steinitz, Strategic Affairs Minister Moshe Ya'alon, Minister Benny Begin, and Chairman of the Knesset Subcommittee for Judea and Samaria Affairs MK Zev Elkin, have all come out in opposition to the "draconian" manner in which the construction freeze in Judea and Samaria has been implemented.

            Considering that PM Netanyahu maintains that "the decision does not apply to 2,500 units under construction, to 500 additional housing units we recently approved…", the Likud leaders are outraged by Defense Minister Barak's stop-work orders on all construction in Judea and Samaria, including all of the above.

            It is interesting to note that Steinitz, Ya'alon, Begin and Elkin all voted for the freeze, believing that it would proceed as stipulated in the Cabinet decision. They apparently didn't anticipate that Barak would enforce it in the brutal manner that he has implemented.

In the face of this, Netanyahu maintains that he "has no choice" but to keep the freeze in place. Who has given him "no choice"?  The Prime Minister of Israel must have the choice to preserve the land and the people of Israel in the best way possible. There can be "no choice" to destroy peoples' lives and livelihoods.

            The Likud leaders should never have voted for the freeze. They must anticipate the aggressive and destructive manner in which the Defense Minister would implement the "permission" he received to destroy Jewish homes and lives, while turning a blind eye to rampant and illegal Arab building throughout the land of Israel. This Labor Minister does not belong in a Likud government.

            Finally, one must question the purpose and meaning of a freeze when it obviously makes no difference in the supposed "peace process." The Arabs have already rejected it as inadequate in satisfying their demands. This meaningless action only does harm to Israel's legitimacy.

            We commend those who are calling for a halt to the freeze, and urge PM Netanyahu and Likud to remember the party mandate to preserve the Land of Israel for the Jewish people.

           

 

Please send me back my $300 contribution to JNF made after the Lebanese War and refund past donations as well.

Dear Keren Kayemet LeYisroel and JNF, amv"sh
Contact info for KKL is http://www.jnf.org/includes/contact-us.html


After the latest War in Lebanon I gave $300 to my friend who was going to Israel and asked her to please spend it on a worthwhile cause.  She chose JNF to replace trees that were destroyed in the North after the North was attacked by Hizbollah. 

It has come to my attention that JNF and KKL have taken Land paid by Jews and entrusted to them by Jewish donors for the purpose of Keren Kayamet LEYISROEL and instead have allowed this Land it to be entrusted to Palestinians in Arab villages.  I  refer you  and all my fellow donors to Arieh King of the Israel Land Fund  who has done extensive research regarding this matter.

Now the latest breaking news reported in Haaretz  www.haaretz.co.il and Arutz 7 http://www.israelnationalnews.com/News/News.aspx/134694#replies is that KKL is proud to donate 3,000 trees for the Palestinians while the government of Israel is freezing all construction in Judea and Samaria.  Netanyahu is acquiescing to Obama and American Pressure to establish a Palestinian State and KKL is seeing to it that Palestiniain communities are beautified with tree planting.  

The Palestinians are not interested in trees.  Look at the oasis that was once Gush Katif.  Now it  is desolate and a launching pad for Kassam Rockets against the South. 

I want my money back.   I also want all my money back from the past 30 years when I proudly donated many trees to JNF in memory of lost friends and relatives or in honor of a Simcha. I was proud of my Jewish Homeland.  I understand now, that KKL did not use the money  for that purpose.  Again please contact Arieh King who has publicized this fraud.  He can provide you and donors with facts.. 

You deceived us, all your donors into believing we are contributing to Jews and to Israel.  Instead, you betrayed our trust and instead used land and property bought by Jews for Jews and gave  it  to Palestinians.  Why call yourself Keren Kayamet LeYisroel?  Why call yourself Jewish National Fund?

In addition to demanding a full refund of all  monies donated to JNF we will recommend that from now on. money is much better spent donating to organizations that plant trees in YESHA in Jewish communities rather than to JNF..

Anyone reading this letter and wishes to join me in  a class action suit against JNF and KKL please contact  me.


Sincerely, Robin Ticker
A very disappointed contributor.

A new Palestinian city takes root - with JNF trees
By Eli Ashkenazi
Hirui Amara excitedly held a bunch of pine seedlings and was quick to dip their soft roots in a bucket of water. Several seconds later he was next to an elderly man, and helped him plant one of the seedlings. This was the end of an exciting day for Amara, who heads a Jewish National Fund greenhouse at Golani Junction. Amara and five other JNF employees took part, 10 days ago, in an extraordinary project that involves the JNF assisting in planting trees in the area where a new Palestinian city, Ruwabi, is scheduled to be built north of Ramallah. The name means "City of Hills." As a first step, the JNF contributed 3,000 tree seedlings for planting in what is meant to be a forested area on the edges of the new city. At the same time, the forestry experts of the JNF have been advising the city planners on the matter. Suhil Zaydan, one of the JNF's forestry managers, is serving as liaison between the organization and the city planers. "There have been a number of meetings, both at the location where the city will be built and also at the JNF greenhouses," he says. "We have contributed with our know-how, by advising on how to prepare the ground for the planting and how public gardens should be planned, as well as the best times for planting, and what kinds of trees it is preferable to plant. We did not talk about politics and we shall not talk about it - we deal with trees and understand forestry, botany and greenhouses." The ambitious project of building a city from scratch has drawn an estimated investment of $800 million, mostly from Palestinian and Qatari sources. The plan is for 6,000 housing units over a 6,300 dunam area that is supposed to provide housing for nearly 40,000 people and employ some 10,000 Palestinian workers. The project is aimed at the Palestinian middle class. Zaydan says that a new kind of planning attitude is involved. "There is no other city like it in our area with regards to the ecological-forestry aspects of planning. Everything will be natural, and there is great attention to preserving nature, the trees, the springs, the streams, the topography and other values, such as antiquities. During the planning stage the natural resources are taken into account," he said. Ruwabi will be located nine kilometers northwest of Ramallah. A few days ago, at what will be one of the entrances to the city, workers were busy setting up a large sign advertising the project. Several hours before traveling to the site of the tree planting, Amara was ready at the greenhouse for the truck to arrive so that the seedlings could be loaded. "This is not a regular day of work," he said. "Today there is a sense that something special is happening. This is a project that grants hope to young people for a better future. I am proud that I am party to this thing." Like a proud father who nurtured his children, he walked through the rows of seedlings. "These are seedlings of high quality from every respect - thickness, shape, health, development of its roots," he said. The seedlings originate from locations throughout the country where seeds were collected and were planted at the greenhouse under conditions favorable to their species. A bumpy ride along a dirt path comes to an end at the foothills of the settlement of Ateret, at the edge of what will be Ruwabi. Dozens of people are there to plant, ranging in age from youth to people in their 60s, waiting for the truck with the seedlings. Everyone brought tools from home. One person has a metal hoe with a serial number dating back to Ottoman times. "This is a very old hoe which belonged to my grandfather," he tells the JNF people, who are amazed by the fact. Michael Weinberg of the JNF acknowledges that there is a great deal of "professional pride in the project. We are helping in any way we can." Kneeling to touch the earth, he is optimistic: "There are excellent conditions here."

JNF BETRAYS ITS JEWISH MANDATE

 

            Arieh King, founder and head of the Israel Land Fund, has been battling with the JNF for years. He has documented the egregious abuse of the organization's mandate to collect money from Jewish people in order to buy and preserve land in the Land of Israel. King has documented proof of JNF land purchase and give-away to Arabs that has been going on with the knowledge and approval of the Israel Land Authority.

            King asserts that during the years 2004-2009, more than 200 new apartments were built on JNF land in the area north of the Atarot airport, in Jerusalem. When one drives near that area today, a very visible sign reading AREA A – NO ISRAELIS (Jews) ALLOWED, can be seen,  even though one is in Israel's capital city of Jerusalem. (Israel has been divided into areas A,B and C. A is solely Arab. B is under Israeli control, but open to Arab administration, and C is solely under Israeli control.) King also accuses the JNF of failure to protect Jewish land in Gush Etzion where three years ago, no effort was made to keep hundreds of acres inside the separation wall. Arabs are now using this land.  In the Shoafat/JNF forest, near Pisgat Ze'ev, Jerusalem, Arabs have built 300 apartments between 1991-2009, with building continuing today.

            King has written to the heads of JNF, pleading with them to stop JNF assistance in planting 3000 trees in the area of a new Arab city, RUWABI, scheduled to be built north of Ramallah. Instead, we read that "Michael Weinberg of the JNF acknowledges that there is a great deal of "professional pride in the project. We are helping in any way we can."

            The reports on the project mention such names as Hirui Amara, who heads a JNF greenhouse at the Golani Junction, and Suhil Zaydan, one of the JNF's forestry managers. At the recent Zionist Congress an Israeli Arab was nominated to the KKL (Keren Kayemet L'Yisrael or JNF) General Assembly. Why is JNF, or KKL, hiring and working with Arabs when so many Jews are jobless? Wouldn't some of the expelled farmers from Gush Katif be people who would be expert in working with the land, and keeping it in Jewish hands?

             Maaleh Adumim Mayor Benny Kashriel, a member of the JNF board, describes the situation as something that has gone "haywire."  He continues, "The country has gone crazy when it plants trees for the PA in Judea and Samaria at the same time that it forbids Jews to build. The system does not know who it is representing – us, the PA, or the Americans."

            Diaspora Jews are urged to call JNF headquarters in NYC – 212-879-9300 to voice their indignation about the disgraceful betrayal of the JNF mandate. Ask for CEO Russell Robinson, or VP of Israel Relations Isaac Blachor. Tell them you will no longer contribute to JNF because of their scandalous behavior. Write letters to your local papers about the situation. Spread the information.

            Those who are interested in getting more information about the issue are invited to contact Arieh King at kingshir@bezeqint.net or office@israellandfund.com. Tel: 972-2-622-3195. He will be happy to answer your questions and present you with the proof of his investigations into JNF abuses.

Dayan: DM Barak Mobilizing Reserves Against Jews

(IsraelNN.com) Yesha Council Chairman Danny Dayan told Israel National News on Tuesday that Defense Minister Ehud Barak has ordered the mobilization of an IDF reserve unit normally charged with handling emergency takeovers of local Arab cities in order to turn this unit against Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria.
 
 According to Dayan, "Netanyahu and Barak have crossed all red lines and have declared a real war against the Jews of Judea and Samaria."

Fwd: APPEASING ARABS PITS JEWS VS. JEWS - Intolerable acts - taxation w/o representation

bs"d

In case one wishes to criticize the settlers for disobeying the latest decree to freeze construction in Judea and Samaria , it is recommended that you review American History and the American Revolution and the circumstances that led up to and justified the United States ceding from Britain.  What led them to form their own militia? 

Jews in Judea and Samaria have been the most courageous fighters for Israel. Now they are forbidden to build a home for themselves in our Biblical Heartland.  It is no wonder that many reservists in Judea and Samaria are putting a freeze on going into the Israeli army as long as the construction freeze in Judea and Samaria  is in effect.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:

 

APPEASING ARABS PITS JEWS VS. JEWS

 

        Americans For a Safe Israel/AFSI condemns without reservation the unconscionable, inhumane, and dangerous decision on the part of PM Bibi Netanyahu to freeze construction in Jewish communities. It is very apparent that such appeasement of Israel's enemies can only serve to strengthen them, while it pits Israel's Jewish citizens against their own government. This can only lead to a dangerous weakening of the state of Israel. The utilization of the Israeli Air Force in fly-over inspections, along with the IDF, and special Yassam police units to accompany the inspectors in the communities, is reprehensible.

The enclosed report from Arutz Sheva, regarding resistance to the freeze orders, tells the tragic story.  

 

1. Mayor Arrested, Police Violence in Freeze Clashes
by Hillel Fendel

More clashes and violence were the order of the day between construction freeze inspectors and residents in Jewish towns on Wednesday. The mayor of Beit Aryeh, Avi Naim, was both hurt and arrested, and police detained him even after an ambulance was called for him. Police finally allowed the ambulance to rush him to a hospital after the mayor asked his legal counsel to intervene.

The clashes took place when the inspectors, accompanied by army forces and special Yassam police units for protection, attempted to enter the towns to distribute stop-work orders. Mayor Naim was arrested when he tried, together with dozens of his townsmen, to prevent the inspectors from entering. The town's security officer was also hurt, and said he never had seen such police violence.

Residents said they were told that the inspectors had received instructions to use force and not to compromise.

Beit Aryeh is in the western Shomron just 25 kilometers (15 miles) east of Tel Aviv and is not defined as a religious community. It began in 1981 with 60 families, and together with nearby Ofarim, with which it shares a local municipality, now numbers 900 families and 4,000 people.

Clashes at Elon Moreh and Brachah

Similar clashes also broke out on Wednesday in Elon Moreh, deep in the heart of Samaria. Some 150 people came out in three groups to greet the inspectors, and reported "partial success."  Some of the inspectors managed to give out stop-work orders, one resident told Arutz-7, but the others did not. Asked if there was violence, he said, "In one group, the forces used moderate violence…"

At nearby Har Brachah, residents blocked the access road – though freeze officials were not reported to be on their way in. Border Guardsmen chased the blockers and made some arrests, using violence. Nearby roads at the Brachah junction and Hawara were also blocked intermittently, and arrests were made.

War Hero's Home Frozen

Aryeh Rotmensh, father of First Sgt. Alon Rotmensh who received the Medal of Valor for rescuing fellow fighters under fire during a Second Lebanon War battle, told Arutz-7 that building on his son's house is being stopped by the new freeze orders. "How can it be that they stop such a hero who risked his life for the People of Israel from building his home?" his father asked.



Ministers Gilad Erdan (Environmental Affairs) and Eli Yishai (Interior) refused a request by the Defense Ministry to allocate inspectors to help the Civil Administration enforce the construction freeze in the Jewish settlement enterprise in Judea and Samaria.

The freeze inspectors were unsuccessful on Tuesday in their bid to enter the hard-core eastern Shomron communities: Elon Moreh, Itamar and Yitzhar. Clashes between residents and inspectors broke out in several places, including Kiryat Arba, Karnei Shomron and Revavah.
