Fwd: Breaking News: Corruption Discovered in the PLO! Not What you Expect.

bs"d

Dear David HaIvri, amv'sh

You asked for comments. You ask. Need we spend our time to expose the corruption in the PLO or rather just focus on asserting our G-d given rights to the Land?  

My conclusion is Yes, it is important to expose the lies and corruption, but first let us state the Given.  

The Given: The Torah,  Our source states that G-d Promised the Land of Israel to the People of Israel on condition that we keep the commandments in the Torah. This is the  Covenant G-d made with each of our forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and then repeated again to  Moses our teacher, Joshua who was appointed by Moses as per G-d's instruction to conquer the Land of Israel from the 7 Canaanite nations, and repeated numerous times by the Prophets. This given is repeated by King David in Psalms and by Ezra and Nehemia when they returned to Israel and built the 2nd Temple.  It is what we Jews recite in our morning, afternoon and evening prayers, in Tefillin and Mezuza, Grace after Meals and Shma.  This is the foundation of Judaism and the root that keeps all the other arguments of Israel's advocates in place.

Once we assert our rightful claim to the Land based on the Torah we can then proceed to strengthen our claim with many branches that stem from the root of our claim.

  • Historical proof
  • Genealogy, we descend from the 12 Tribes of Israel
  • Archaeological proof
  • Legal - International Law
  • Security
  • expose the lies and fraud of our enemies 
Let us focus on the last point as did your reader.  This is a very important point as are all the other points! We must raise awareness and publicize as she suggests!   

It is heartwarming to hear friends of Israel expose the truth.  Friends like Former Mayor Rudolph Guiliani....

Klinghoffer protest. Video and transcript of Former Mayor Rudolph Guiliani - Distortion of History. Exposes Arafat and the Palestinian Authority as a corrupt terrorist organization   http://shemittahrediscovered.blogspot.com/2014/10/klinghoffer-protest-video-and.html

Video of Former Mayor Rudolph Guliani's speech at protest


from transcript of former Mayor Guiliani's speech...
....The terrorist killers who murdered Leon Klinghoffer were set free just a short while later and not brought to justice.  Arafat, got himself a place at the international bargaining table. He made fools of all of us, for years, by taking our money, but never agreeing to doing anything to bring peace to the Middle East.  The truth should be told that this Opera didn't create, but it certainly contributed to a romanticized version of the Palestinian cause and a romanticized version of terrorism (applause) which led the American Administration to give hundreds of millions of dollars to Palestine.  That money did not get to the Palestinian People.  THAT MONEY WAS STOLEN BY ARAFAT AND THE OTHER MEMBERS OF FATAH and if somebody would go take a good look in the South of France, they would find some of it in Mrs. Arafat's bank account.  

So when people tell you that conditions in Palestine are terrible, and what Israel did to them,  It's what their leaders did to them. THEIR LEADERS STOLE THEIR MONEY IN THE  MILLIONS AND HUNDREDS OF MILLIONS  - AND THIS OPERA DOESN'T TELL THAT STORY! (applause)

Yazidi's: Do they also practice Ye'hareg V'al Ya'avor (יהרג ואל יעבור, or "be killed but do not transgress"). Let us heed their cry for help.....

bs"d

Friends, amv"sh

There are three areas of prohibition that may not be trespassed under any circumstances, even to save a human life. While these three areas of Jewish law are often informally referred to as the "three cardinal sins," they actually encompass many more than a mere three prohibitions. They all involve murder, sexual misconduct and foreign worship. The governing principle here is called ye'hareg v'al ya'avor (יהרג ואל יעבור, or "be killed but do not transgress"). http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-sacrifice_in_Jewish_law  ...Additionally, Leviticus 19:16 states, "You shall not stand by the blood of your fellow." The Talmud derives from this verse that one must do everything in his or her power to save the life of another Jew, even if this involves violation of one or more of the mitzvot. If it is the life of a non-Jew or apostate Jew that is in danger, the law is not so clear, and is the matter of some debate, however it is certainly within the spirit of the law, if not the letter. This also touches on Judaism's views regarding other religions; 

What I've noticed about the Yazidi's is that they are willing to die for their religion and their women are willing to die so as not to be taken by the enemy.  These are reminiscent of the concept of Yehareg Veal Yaavor.

Subject: FW: Urgent Cry of the Yazidi's




Thank you Robin for the information you have compiled below.  Please see above a picture of Yezidi fighters (ezidipress).  I feel deep deep shame that have so little weapons and protection.  They are brave, facing ISIS .  They are prepared to die but are we even prepared to learn about them, to listen to their pleas for arms - SO THAT THEY CAN DESTROY OUR ENEMY WITHOUT OUR HAVING TO SPILL OUR BLOOD ?
 I am asking my fellow Jews to step up with me and redeem in some small way the merit of behaving as the children of Hashem,  towards Hashem's other children who need our help now, and who in times past have helped us when we needed them, the Yezidis, with whom Judaism has a long history of friendship.
"One day you too will beat your breasts because you will realize that you could have helped us and you did not."  Rabbi Dov Weissmandl

Yazidi lawmaker Mahma Khalil said the Yazidis in Kocho were given the choice to convert or die. “When the residents refused to do this, the massacre took place,” he said.

Dear sister Rananah,

Hope you and your family are doing well; I just received few phone calls from the colleagues in Mount Sinjar, they provided me with the following info and they are in urgent need of assistance. I am hoping you can forward it to our defense minister Hon. Baird and Hon. Mark Adler to get Canadian fighter jets involved in our dire situation in the Mt. Sinjar. And if you can also please forward it to the people we met at Hon. Mark Adler's office on Wednesday evening.

"ISIL Convoy arrived Sinjar coming from Mosul, they are about 40 armored and other military vehicles; about 20 military vehicles from Baaj arrived in Sinjar. And about 20 military vehicles arrived in Khanasor village and Sinony town from the villages of Musherrafa and Bir Qasim, which are on the Iraqi-Syrian border. About 5 ISIL vehicles arrived in Hardan village from Rijim Abd village. There is a high probability and a possible attack on besieged Mount Sinjar. The ISIL is trying to dominate the mountain as the base for them after their withdrawal from the outskirts of Baghdad, Zummar and Rabia areas and now the Iraqi army approaching Tikrit city and area. There is a large ISIL forces in arrived in Shello area and their attack on the Yezidis there is ready to start at any time from now. Therefore, the situation of the Yezidis in Mount Sinjar is very abnormal because there are still more than 1,500 Yezidi families in the Mountain and the Yezidi fighters do not have any good or heavy weapons and ammunition to defeat ISIL militias there and also because of the cold weather and lack of humanitarian aid especially food and winter clothing."

Best regards,

Mirza Ismail
Chairman
Yezidi Human Rights Organization-International

ZOA Mort Klein. A Mainstream Jewish Organization with Backbone! Where is the Jewish Establishment? Direct Your Funds to Organizations who are Standing Up for Israel.

ZOA's Klein Appears in Long Island Jewish World as Rare Voice Criticizing Obama's Anti-Israel Actions


Stop the Silence: Jewish Leadership Must Stand Up Against a Hostile White House

by Isi Liebler
Published November 13, 2014

I would hesitate to write this column had I not served as a national Jewish leader who faced similar dilemmas to those confronting the American Jewish leadership today, many of whom I was engaged with in various battles against enemies of the Jewish people and Israel.

Yet, with considerable regret and notwithstanding notable exceptions, I believe that today the major leaders within the American Jewish establishment are failing to stand up and be counted, despite chilling signals that the US administration is about to abandon Israel, effectively revoking the US-Israel alliance on which we are deeply dependent.

There are even hints that US President Barack Obama may forgo the US veto at the United Nations Security Council that protects Israel from censure and sanctions - which could have disastrous repercussions.

This is taking place at a time when much of the world regards Israel as they did Czechoslovakia in the 1930's.

Another serious issue is that Obama has again breached a solemn undertaking and appears prepared to consummate a deal with the Iranians, enabling them to achieve nuclear status.

Tensions have escalated over the past 12 months and the vicious and humiliating manner in which the Obama administration has treated Israel, its purported ally and the only democratic state in the region, is unprecedented. The administration's condemnation of Israel's "disproportionate response," and directive to withhold replenishment of arms during the Gaza war, are hardly the behavior of a genuine ally.

Remaining silent and relying on ZOA and other small groups to defend Israel conveys the false impression that the committed American Jewish community is alienated from Israel and prefers to remain aloof while the Obama administration bashes the Jewish state.

In contrast, the Obama administration serenades Iran and Qatar, which promote global terrorism, kowtows to Saudi Arabia despite its horrific abuses of human rights and embraces Turkey's anti-Semitic President Recep Tayyip Erdogan.

Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas has failed to make a single concession, opting to merge with the genocidal Hamas. He deliberately incites hatred of Israelis, having just last week hailed the murderer of a three-month-old Israeli baby as a shaheed (martyr) and extended condolences to the family of Rabbi Yehuda Glick's attempted assassin, whom he described as "rising to heaven while defending our people's rights and holy places." Abbas's adviser Sultan Abu al-Einen said that the "bullets were a beacon that will continue to shine for years to come." Yet the Obama administration remains circumspect and respectful of Abbas, while Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is treated with contempt and derision.

What is especially galling is that in the midst of regional upheaval, with millions of people being displaced, hundreds of thousands butchered and the world confronted by the snowballing threat of Islamic barbarism from Islamic State and other terrorist groups, Obama remains obsessed with Israel's need to make concessions that would undermine its security and create long-term existential threats.

It is bizarre that he spends more time condemning Israel for building homes in Jewish neighborhoods of Jerusalem than on the carnage taking place in the region.

And yet, despite all of the above, the Jewish leadership seems to have hibernated. The only voices consistently protesting against the bias and condemnations directed against Israel are the Zionist Organization of America and the Los Angeles- based Simon Wiesenthal Center, which was the first to respond with a well-deserved fusillade against the "chickenshit" outburst, demanding an apology and repudiation.

The Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, in a rare criticism of the White House, demanded that the anonymous official who made the remark, which were "inappropriate" and "counterproductive," be "held to account." But Abe Foxman, the national director of the Anti-Defamation League, effectively trivialized the incident, saying that "the White House statement [which distanced itself from the comments without condemning them] should bring closure to the issue."

Amazingly, the National Jewish Democratic Council condemned the outburst in harsher terms than the Jewish establishment, expressing "surprising disappointment at the profane and inappropriate language" employed.
The issues at stake here go far beyond the vulgar language and the hostile exchanges between Obama and Netanyahu. They relate to the foundations of the US-Israel alliance.

These are times when one would expect the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (whose raison d'etre is surely to respond to such situations) and the American Jewish leadership to publicly protest at the manner in which Israel is being treated.

Remaining silent and relying on ZOA and other small groups to defend Israel conveys the false impression that the committed American Jewish community is alienated from Israel and prefers to remain aloof while the Obama administration bashes the Jewish state.

Most Jewish leaders with whom I communicate admit that they consider Obama's behavior toward Israel reprehensible.

Many seek to rationalize their behavior by stressing that they are lobbying vigorously behind the scenes, and maintain that public criticism of Obama would encourage him to become even more extreme.

This is the classic Diaspora approach of the "Trembling Israelites." It has been proven wrong in the past and American Jewish leaders, to their credit, were always robust and outgoing in exercising their democratic right to promote the Jewish standpoint.

We have learned over the years that while shtadlanut (silent diplomacy) is indeed necessary, it can only be effective when backed up by a public campaign.
At this crucial turning point in the relationship with Israel, my real concern is that American Jewish leaders are simply fearful of directly confronting the president and that the allegedly powerful Jewish lobby lacks the backbone to stand up and be counted.

The absence of direction and leadership has already resulted in further erosion, as displayed by Gary Rosenblatt, the respected editor of The New York Jewish Week, who produced an editorial titled "Bibi takes on the world" blasting Netanyahu for confronting the "leader of the free world" and "jeopardizing Israel's relationship with its most important allies" for electoral reasons. Rosenblatt is a Zionist and a courageous and outspoken journalist.

Only two weeks earlier, he had penned an editorial titled, "Blaming Israel isn't the answer," castigating the global anti-Israeli tsunami.

But his latest editorial was unfair and extremely damaging. The Jewish Week was founded by the Jewish Federations, and Rosenblatt conceded to Jeffrey Goldberg of The Atlantic (who exposed the "chickenshit" comment) that in the past there would have been "hell to pay in the community" for such an editorial on Israel, but now "that is no longer the case."

Goldberg cited the editorial as evidence that Jewish leaders were "uneasy" about Israel's direction.

He referred to discussions by unnamed Jewish officials questioning Netanyahu's policies. He went on to state that Israel should be trying to "negotiate in good faith" with the duplicitous Abbas and impose a settlement freeze on Jerusalem and the settlement blocs until such time as negotiations with the Palestinians have clarified which territory will remain within Israel. Needless to say, pigs will fly before the Palestinians agree to such an accommodation.

This is the approach that the Obama administration will adopt in their forthcoming effort to renew negotiations after the mid-term elections.

Whereas most Israelis feel that the prime minister would be well advised to cease making public announcements about construction, the vast consensus would never agree to a construction freeze in the settlement blocs and especially not in the Jewish neighborhoods of Jerusalem.

Certain myths and falsehoods need to be dispelled.

Israel is not creating new settlements. To the contrary, the only real change on the ground in the past decade has been the dismantling of settlements in Gaza - which subsequently became rocket-launching sites. Nor are any Arabs being displaced or Palestinian land being appropriated. The entire area engaged in current settlement is about three percent of the former Jordanian occupied territories. The Oslo accords never required limits to settlement growth and certainly not natural growth of existing communities.

That is the message that AIPAC and Jewish leaders must urgently promote. They must also firmly and publicly condemn the biased policies adopted against Israel by the administration and lobby Congress to prevent Obama from abandoning Israel during his remaining two years in office.

Failure by the Jewish leadership to act now will massively undermine the entire Jewish community as a political force in America, sending a message to the American people and Congress that American Jews are distancing themselves from Israel. This would invariably impact on the very high levels of support that Israel currently enjoys.

It will also weaken the will of Jewish students to stand up and fight for themselves at the campuses, many of which have been transformed into anti-Israeli and anti-Semitic cesspools.

The Jewish leadership has an enormous responsibility to provide direction. Hopefully they will move in this direction, preventing analogies between today's American Jewish establishment and the disastrous era of Rabbi Stephen Wise and his colleagues, who failed to stand up to president Franklin Roosevelt's indifference to the plight of Jews during the Holocaust.
