Now is the time to be Mezakeh the Rabbim. Hashem wants each and every one of us to show our love and devotion to the Land of Israel!
In the Diaspora and in Israel we must call our Rabbanim and beg them to send out a press release against this expulsion of Migron. It is not enough to rally for the study of the teachings of the Gemorrah but we must also rally to enforce the teachings of the Gemorrah. Otherwise we promote mere lip service.
How is it possible that the gov't of Israel under the "rule of law" of a Supreme court who is above the law succeed in decreeing the stealing of property of 50 families of fellow Jews and expel these families from their homes????? What would the great Tannaim and Amoraim have to say about that???? Unfortunately in Israel, the hands of the Rabbis are most probably tied. Will funding for their institutions be threatened if they speak out? Will they lose key Minister positions in the Gov't? The Rabbis in the Diaspora have no such constraints. Make sure to read this link to understand how the Supreme Court acts under the "Rule of Law" while being above the Law.
Migron. 300 people Must Evacuate by September 4th. Their cries and pleas have so far not been effective. Rabbanim and Masses have not come to their aid sufficiently to stop this decree http://shemittahrediscovered.blogspot.com/2012/08/migron-300-people-must-evacuate-by.html
Next. All the caring Jewish Media, newspapers and radio, should call the Prime Ministers office and the Minister in charge of this operation of the gov't of Israel and let them know that this expulsion and protest will be featured on Page 1 of their newspaper. It will not make favorable impressions on the readers. Advertisements for Israeli Bonds will go out as usual but publishers and editors still have the freedom to print the news as they see fit!
A very big mistake some Settler leaders have is that they act as if they are the only key players in the field and the rest of the Jews, especially Jews in the Diaspora are merely spectators and have a no real active playing part. Unfortunately, most Jews in the Diaspora are fed this notion and also seem to feel this way. It gets them off the hook. They sincerely believe as they have been told and have come to understand that they are merely spectators when it comes to Israel and therefore will not get actively involved. Many feel that as long as they do not have sons fighting in TZAHAL they shouldn't voice an opinion.
This is a great mistake both on the part of the Key Players living in Israel and on the part of the spectators who refuse to actively be part of the struggle.
The Land of Israel is not an imaginary inheritance of all Jews. It is a REAL inheritance. Did the Torah ever say that you will inherit EY on condition that you make Aliya wiith Nefesh B'Nefesh and serve in the IDF? According to the rules of inheritance, if someone decides not to reside on his inheritance does his inheritance become null and void? NO! The protection of the Land of Israel should fall on everyone shoulders and not on just a few strong quarterbacks. We need a full team of players. We are fighting a world that has too many players against us and even some very great quarterbacks will not be able to overcome the enemy team on their own. That is the way Hashem has designed the matter. Kol Yisroel Areivim zeh Lazeh. When it comes to Eretz Yisroel, we are all responsible for one another. So if the majority are apathetic and passive the entire Nation is undeserving. So rather than perpetuate the myth that other than a select few, the rest are spectators, the leaders of the settlers need to educate that each and every Jew MUST do their FAIR share and carry some part of the burden (and letting Jews in the Diaspora get away with sending a few dollars for food baskets for the needy for Sukkot is not what I consider a FAIR share. And even if large amounts of money is sent for food baskets, it doesn't merit those Jews who don't have money especially on the scale that is required). In fact it quite condescending to even suggest that sending a few dollars for the needy on the holidays will get Diaspora Jews off the hook when there is a real live security threat). The real active quarterbacks must confront those who see themselves as spectators and challenge them for abandoning their brothers and sisters in the Holy Land and ask them like Moshe Rabbeinu confronted Shevet Gad and Reuvein and rebuked them harshly Bamidbar/Numbers 32:6 "Shall your brothers go to battle while you settle here?
So in the Diaspora we must do our share to put the pressure on Netanyahu's Administration while in Israel...
Every person who cares about Israel should be getting into their car and heading to Migron now!

Knesset member calls on supporters of Migron to go there immediately, says eviction is planned for morning.
Gil Ronen
MK Aryeh Eldad (National Union) called upon nationalists Saturday evening to head toward the community of Migron as soon as possible, in order to protest the eviction that he says will apparently take place in the morning.
"As far as I know, they are going to start the eviction of Migron tomorrow morning," Eldad wrote in his Facebook account. "They will close off the roads in order to prevent supporters of the community from showing up, and avoid a legitimate protest."
"I call upon whoever holds the building and settlement of the Land dear to his heart to get to Migron by any route possible and to hold a nonviolent protest there against the crime of eviction and destruction of a community, most of which is now on land that was bought by the Jewish settlers."
"We will not be violent," he added, "but the police will have to use force to evict us from there. This ia legitimate protest. Lack of protest will communicate to Netanyahu that there is no problem and he can continue [to evict settlers]. After Migron, additional communities will be put on the chopping block. Only if he understands that he is dealing with a public that is loyal to the Land of Israel and to the settlement enterprise, and that is willing to absorb blows and be arrested, he himself will give instructions to stop the destruction."
