Annapolis

 
 
        Respected Ladies and Gentlemen,
 
         May we, the undersigned, Jewish & Muslim Co-Chairmen of the
Islam-Israel Fellowship of the Root & Branch Association, Ltd., bring to
your attention the following:
 

         1.  Thinking and saying that Israel and the Western World are
threatened by Islamic terrorist groups, is a fatal misnomer.  It helps giving rise
to the illusion that we are threatened merely by "terrorist" groups such as
that of Osama Bin Laden. This plays right into their hands as it lets most
of the so-called "Islamic Fundamentalists" off the hook.
 

         2.  Groups such as "Islamic Jihad" and Abu Mazen's "el-Fatah" (in
the West better known as the P.L.O./Palestine Liberation Organization) are
integral parts of Islamic warfare against the very existence of Israel.  In
fact, they are the vanguard of such warfare.  There is no sense in trying
to make peace merely with the vanguard, regardless of what documents or
treaties they sign.
 

         3.  Fostering the idea that bringing democracy to the Middle East
will solve problems is another illusion.  Democracy is a form of
government, not an expression of the soul of a People.  We should have
learned this from examples such as:
 
                 A.  Germany which elected Hitler in democratic elections
in 1933.
 
                 B.  Persia where its present President was elected in
democratic elections.
 
                 C.  Gaza with its democratically elected Salafi/Wahhabi
Hamas "government".
 

Please note that it took Europe 400 years of revolutions and wars to move
from the "Dark Middle Ages" to modern democracy. How can one expect the
Arab/Muslim world (now, according to its own calendar, in the Fifteenth
Century) to swallow democracy like a miracle pill, and be healed?
 

         4.  Jihad against Jews (sic!) was first demanded by Mufti Amin
el-Husseini in a live broadcast from Radio Berlin in 1943 (!).  Then the
principles of "Jihad" against Israel and its supporters -- strategy and
tactics -- were laid down by the "Fourth Conference of the Academy of
Islamic Research" held at Cairo's Al Azhar University in 1969.  It convened
on the behest of Gamal Abd-el-Nassr, then President of Egypt.  The
Conference proceedings were published in Arabic and in English by Egypt's
"Government Printing Office" in 1970.  Our present situation is simply an
outcome thereof.
 

         5.  Real peace will only be achieved when Arab/Muslim nations
declare that Jihad against Israel is illegal according to the Qur'an and
Islamic Tradition, educate their Peoples accordingly, and put offenders in
jail.
 

         6.  Once the Arab/Muslim world adopts that stance, the suffering
of both Peoples, Jews and Arabs, will end.  Distrust will be dissolved and
both Peoples can live side by side (to some degree comparable to Germany
and France after WWII; or to Serbia and Croatia).
 

         7.  Israel came into existence by Divine Decree,  according to
the Tanakh (Hebrew Bible)  as well as the Qur'an and the Greek ("New") Testament,
 irrespective of adverse "theologies" (please see attached file). 
 Political attempts to achieve peace must take these sources into account.
 

Jerusalem is not meant to be a bone of contention.  It should become the
City of Peace for all nations.
 
May your efforts find Divine Guidance and Blessing.
 
 
 
Sincerely,
 

Dr. Asher Eder,
Jewish Co-Founder and Co-Chairman

Fwd: [EretzYisraeUndivided] Great tools that nobody use

Dear friends,

Two days ago I've written message about PLO's Phased Plan of annihilation of Israel that was adopted in 1974 by Palestinian National Council. Future Annapolis meeting matches this plan very well. I surprise why nobody write and talk about that. I understand Olmert. If he want to participate in antiisraeli Annapolis summit he hasn't to talk about PLO's Phased Plan, because this plan is the great tool that can be used against summit and against any concessions to Palestinian Authority. It's absolutely obvious that even if Israel are going to make any concessions it's absolutely necessary to require to cancel officially the PLO's Phased Plan of annihilation of Israel.

In connection with this I have a simple question: Why Nataniyahu, Feyglin and people from right camp don't use info about this PLO's plan in their propaganda and contacts to stop very dangerous summit in Annapolis? Why nobody use this great tool to stop Annapolis summit and any concessions to Arabs?

But we have one more great tool. Here is the excerpt from ZOA Special Report from February 03, 2004:

On June 19, 1967, in the wake of the Six Day War, the U.S. Secretary of Defense instructed the Joint Chiefs of Staff to present their "views, without regard to political factors, on the minimum territory" that Israel would be "justified in retaining in order to permit a more effective defense against possible conventional Arab attack and terrorist raids." Ten days later, the Joint Chiefs presented a report which concluded that Israel needed to retain substantial portions of the Golan Heights, and Judea-Samaria, and all of Gaza.

Why nobody use this info in propaganda? It's very impotant info. The conclusion from this info is very simple: any concessions to Arabs violate principles of Israeli security. This principles were indicated by American Joint Chiefs of Staff and America itself call to violate these principles calling for summit in Annapolis.

Why nobody use this tool now? Why we don't tell about that everywhere on permanent basis?

But the most important tool we also don't use enough. Judea, Samaria, Golans, Gaza and, of course Jerusalem is the Promised Land. Unfortunately diplomats don't use this argument. But we need to use it everywhere including contacts with any media and foreigners.

I think we need to write our letters to the Knesset, the US Congress and Media using all these tools.

All the best and Shavua Tov,

Alexander Dymshits
 

It's time to remember PLO's Phased Plan of annihilation of Israel that was adopted in 1974 by Palestinian National Council. Future Annapolis meeting goes well together with this Phased Plan. Unfortunately, many of us don't know or forgot about this plan. But Arab leaders remember it very well and acts according with it.

Israeli government and Israeli media tried to hide this plan from Israeli public. Otherwise craziness of giving to Arabs parts of Jewish Land would have been absolutely obvious! It's very important to disseminate info about the Phased Plan as widely as possible! I know exactly that majority of Israelis and Americans have never heard about this Plan of New Holocaust!

Here are some sites that represent the Arab Plan of annihilation of Israel:

http://www.iris.org.il/plophase.htm,
http://www.palestinefacts.org/pf_1967to1991_plo_phasedplan_1974.php,
http://www.peacefaq.com/phased.html

It's absolutely necessary to give information about this plan to all Congressmen and to public, first at all, in Israel and in the US.

CAJLTC111607 References in Tanach of G-d's Promise (incomplete list)

bs"d
 
CAJL Conference of Authentic Jewish Leadership
TC Torah Campaign
6 Kislev 5768
November 16, 2007
 
The following is a partial list of references in Tanach where Hashem explicitly promises the Land of Israel to our forefathers and to their seed for an everlasting inheritance. 
 
Bereishis/Genesis 13:15-18 ; 17:8 (HaShem to Avram - promise of land; to Avraham - new name and reiteration of promise of land)
 
The Covenant with Abraham is Breishis/Genesis 15:18-21. (extended boundaries, from the River of Egypt to the Eurphrates River, covers boundaries of 10 nations)
 
The Covenant to Isaac Breishis/Genesis 26:2-6.
 
The Covenant of Jacob is in Breishis/Genesis  28:13-16.

Shemos/Exodus 6:4,8 (HaShem to Moshe - reminder of promise to the Avot)

Bamidbar/Numbers 33:53; 34:13 (HaShem to Moshe - boundaries of Eretz Yisrael, the 7 nations)

Isaiah 11:12; 49:12; 51:11 (Ingathering of exiles; return to Zion)

Amos 9:14,15 (Return from captivity - plant on to the land - never again to be uprooted)

Ezekiel 36:24, 36; 37:21( Gathering from all the lands to your own soil)
 
 
The Covenants and promises to the forefathers share three points. 1. Land is promised to them and to their children afterwards 2. The Nations of the world are blessed through them and 3. the children must keep the commandments in order to be worthy of the Land.

It is for this reason CAJL is emphasizing the importance to focus on the Torah and the Commandments of the Torah, yes our religion,  as the root source of our irrevocable legal rights and moral legitimacy for the Nation of Israel everywhere, for the Land of Israel. We have an ancient historical connection as Winston Churchill so aptly said. 
 
Our Torah is that connection. Annapolis is contrary to Torah and therefore doomed to failure. 
 
The land of Israel is the violin and the people of Israel are the violinists.  The Torah is our notes.  If one wishes to hear beautiful music one must allow the violinist access to the violin.  With patience and practice combined with a talent from G-d the rusty violinist will soon perform with his G-d given gifts for the entire world to enjoy.   Below see a taste of the coming attractions.

ToSinai.com Newsletter by Roy S. Neuberger. A Must Read

 

THOUGHTS FOR THE MONTH OF KISLEV

 

Dear Friends:

In the Jewish calendar, today is Rosh Chodesh Kislev; in the secular calendar it is Veterans Day, the eighty-ninth anniversary of the Armistice that ended the First World War.  "The war to end all wars" did not end all wars; in fact it led only a generation later to a much more deadly and barbarous conflict. 

Our Torah sages had predicted this.  The Chofetz Chaim, who died in 1933, is reported to have said that these wars were two of the three great conflicts that would precede the coming of Moshiach. [1]

The Chofetz Chaim said something startling: there would be a major difference between the first two wars and the third war.  In the third war, directly before the coming of Moshiach, the Angel of Death would not have power to harm people who are close to G-d.   We know that, during the First and Second World Wars, millions of holy Jews lost their lives.  But in the Third War, said the Chofetz Chaim, those who would cling to the Torah with all their strength, rejecting the culture of the other nations among whom we dwell, would survive the war and go on to live in the Days of Moshiach, may they come soon

My dear friends, we are entering the month of Chanukah, the holiday in which light illuminates the dark winter of our Exile.  But where, in this world which seems to be stumbling ever closer to the precipice, do we see light?  How can we realistically believe there is reason for hope in this dark world? 

My new book, "2020 VISION," opens with a commentary by the Malbim [2] , as follows: in the days following the return of the Children of Israel to the Land of Israel, the Western nations and the Arab nations will form a worldwide coalition to attack us and drive us out of Israel, G-d Forbid!  How will we survive this terrible threat?  Something unexpected will occur, says the Malbim, and the two great enemies will begin to fight each other.  Their battle will consume them until they destroy each other, and at that moment Moshiach ben Dovid will appear and the Final Redemption of the Children of Israel will occur.

Not only that, but it is clearly predicted in the words of our sages that the last power that would dominate the world before the coming of Moshiach would be the Moslems. [3]

My friends, if we look around at this very moment with clear vision, we can see clearly that THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING IN THE WORLD TODAY!  Prophesy is coming to pass before our very eyes.  If the Arab nations and the Western nations, both of whom are trying to evict us from our Holy Land, are in fact also fighting each other on a worldwide scale, is this not fulfillment of prophesy?  Are not the events of 9/11, the war in Iraq, the belligerency of Iran, the ferment in Pakistan and Afghanistan, the infusion of Moslems into almost every country, the worldwide conflict between the West and Islam all aspects of this prophesy?  If this is coming to pass, must it not follow that the advent of Moshiach must also be close at hand? 

This scenario is reminiscent of the famous Talmud passage in which Rabbi Akiva and his colleagues are walking on the ruins of the Holy Temple.  Rabbi Akiva's colleagues are weeping over the devastation, but Rabbi Akiva is smiling. 

"For what reason are you smiling?" they say to Rabbi Akiva. 

"Uriah ha Kohain prophesied that Zion would be plowed like a field.... Zecharia prophesied [the rebuilding of Yerushalayim].... Now that the prophesy of Uriah has been fulfilled, it is obvious that the prophecy of Zecharia will be fulfilled." [4]

In our own days, we witness what appears to be a depressing and devastating scene, a world in chaos, a world arrayed against us.  But that scene has been described by our prophets and interpreted by our sages as the prelude to the Final Redemption and the coming of Moshiach!  Is this not cause for hope?  Is this not a signal to cling to our Torah with even greater intensity? 

As the Chofetz Chaim said, the way to survive the Final War before the coming of Moshiach would be to cling wholeheartedly to the Torah and to recognize the emptiness of the culture of the nations among whom we dwell.  This is no easy task.  After some two thousand years of Exile, we are all so submerged in the surrounding culture that we hardly recognize it is alien to us.  We are submerged just as our ancestors were submerged in the Egyptian Culture just prior to their redemption.  We don't even realize how much our values and outlook are affected by their values. 

I know that these are difficult words, but we should recognize that the surrounding cultures are in their dying days.  If we cling to their values, we will go their way, G-d forbid.  But we are an Eternal Nation, bound to G-d by the Eternal Torah.  This is our cause for hope, our Tower of Salvation [5] , and the reason that our lights can burn brightly in the midst of darkness, in the midst of our bitter Exile. 

May we see the day soon when the entire world will be bathed in pure light and we will be free to live in sanctity and peace in Eretz Yisroel in the presence of the Holy Temple and Moshiach ben Dovid, may we greet him soon in our days!

A lichtige Chanukah to Klal Yisroel

[1] The Chofetz Chaim predicted the Second World War and the Holocaust, reportedly saying that, compared to the Second World War, the First World War would be considered "child's play."

[2] Rabbi Moshe Leib ben Yechiel Michel (approx. 1808-1879).  This commentary, referring to a passage in Yechezkel (Ezekial) 32:17, was pointed out to me by my friend, Rabbi Amos Bunim.

[3] There are references to this idea many places, for example in the Zohar and the writings of Rabbi Chaim Vital, based upon sources including Daniel 7:7 and Psalm 124.  These subjects are extensively treated in books like "Redemption Unfolding" (Mandelbaum, Feldheim Publishers, 2005) and "The Ishmaelite Exile" (Weitzman, Jerusalem Publications, 2006).
