Yasher Koach to Otzma Yehudit!
Yishai Collapses Otzma Yehudit Talks by Banning Temple Mount.
In shocking last minute demands, Yishai's party demands Otzma Yehudit enter coalition at cost of ideology for yeshiva budgets.
The Spirit of Hebron prevails! The two conditions demanded from Otzma Yehudit was a litmus test to see if they would cave in the future and sell out our rights to Eretz Yisroel. "Otzma Yehudit had to agree on a condition that forbids ascending to the Mount forever, or to receive money for institutions and support Bibi (Netanyahu) at any price." (arutz7 above link))
and Baruch Hashem they passed the test! They stayed true to Torah based principles and resisted politics, and a prominent position in the gov't.
Yishai and Yachad - HaAm Itanu on the other hand....
Dr. Michael Ben Ari was willing to give up his spot as MK. Eretz Yisroel is more important than his own personal political career. But when it came to compromising on our deepest claims to Eretz Yisroel, he stood firm!
We know that Gush Katif happened because of deals made for subsidies for Jewish Education. Chareidi parties who initially were against the Disengagement changed their tune. They joined the government when they shouldn't of.
Yishai and Yachad - HaAm Itanu should learn from past experiences of the 2005 expulsion.
In the Hebrew paper Hamodia, dated 12 Cheshvan 5765, the headline read that the head of the faction of Yahadut Hatorah under the recommendation of Moetzet Gedolei Hatorah were against the Disengagement.
Another headline at the time read that MK Harav Meir Porush were against the Disengagement just like they were against Oslo and it will be shown that they were right
The Lubavitcher Rebbe in Parshat Devarim 5759 said: (Halacha Berura top of page 32) That it is impossible to educate with Torah and Yirat Shamayim from money tainted in the blood of a Jew.
It seems to many that $67 million given to the UTJ was indeed blood money.
Rav Rumpler then continues and quotes a Gemorrah which says more than that! The Gemorrah in Avoda Zara 17:1 says that you can't even build a bathroom with such money.
Rachel Saperstein writes in March 2005 The Knesset has voted to turn down the people's demand for a referendum on the expulsion plan of Ariel Sharon.
Sharon, using the government purse springs to shower largesse or penury on each political party has b(r)ought the Knesset to its knees. The promise of huge sums of money to those who vote for his plan made this vote a foregone conclusion.
In March 23, 2005 the New York Times reported:
Shinui is upset over $67 million in extra funds for religious education that Mr. Sharon promised to the United Torah Judaism party to bring it into the coalition. http://www.nytimes.com/2005/03/23/international/middleeast/23cnd-mideast.html?pagewanted=print&position=
Now let's go back to recent news:
Recently, Yishai Gets Hareidi Leader's 'Blessing' for New Party with Ariel, Sources close to Yishai say meeting with Rabbi Shteinman Friday paves way for Shas split, solidifying deal splitting Jewish Home as well.

Let us examine Rav Shteinman's position in the past regarding Gush Katif and Kever Yosef.
Rav Shteinman: Those Who Go To Kever Yosef are Suicidal and my comments
Letter to Malcolm Hoenlein and Rav Shteinman
Rav Shteinman seems consistent.
Tikkun Chait HaMiraglim is the test of our generation.
At least secular soccer player Ohana who recently joined Bayit Yehudi (Bennett's party) admitted he made a mistake about destruction of Jewish Settlements. True he wasn't bribed to begin with....
Perhaps is a good time to listen to the leining of the first Chapter of Yeshayahu and take it to heart.
It is a scary world.
The Navi is warning us. Reality is staring us in the face
The sad alternative of Nations streaming toward Jerusalem
Yeshayahu Chapter 1
