Fwd: Elor Azaria IDF soldier who killed subdued terrorist in Hebron convicted of manslaughter. My comments

Bsd

Not surprised.

It was obvious the IDF  convicted him before any evidence was presented but the military courts had to go through the motions.  Any decision to exonerate Elor Azaria would have been a slap in the face of commanding officers who already convicted him before any investigation. 

A soldier can not deliberate. He must make split second decisions at the moment. Many soldiers and civilians  would have acted precisely as did Elor Azaria. Many have come to his defense precisely because they can empathize and put themselves in his place. This conviction is political and the source is in order to weaken and demoralize the idf whose soldiers will hesitate now instead of acting without hesitation.  This conviction has now put a nagging question mark as per whether the IDF has their back.  It is a dangerous conviction since soldiers (and their mothers for that matter) will lose their trust in the IDF and those who make decision regarding their lives.

The public must call for the resignation of those officers in the IDF who pushed for manslaughter verdict They should be relieved of their duties since it is obvious that their military decisions is tainted by political considerations rather than security of their soldiers and the people.  

Will it take a tragedy of soldiers and civilians due to failure to effectively respond to reverse this conviction?

IDF soldier who killed subdued terrorist in Hebron convicted of manslaughter
Evidence presented at trial of Sgt. Elor Azaria supports manslaughter conviction "beyond any doubt," shooting cannot be seen as justified, court rules • Sentencing scheduled for February, defense to appeal verdict • Some MKs call for a pardon for Azaria.
 
Uri Heitner | Going against our moral grain
Sgt. Elor Azaria violated military rules and ethics when he shot an unconscious terrorist who posed no threat. But what should really worry us is the public campaign on his behalf.
Yoav Limor | Eizenkot's ethics hang in the balance
The Azaria trial impacts the chief of staff's tenure and the army he is trying to mold, and provides the supposedly obvious answer to the question of where the army's core authority lies.
Dror Eydar | It's all on Azaria's shoulders
Elor Azaria may not be a hero, but he should not be made bear responsibility for the IDF's Code of Ethics, Israel's foreign relations, and the increasingly politicized public discourse.

Dr. Gabi Avital | The 20-year campaign against Netanyahu
The claims against Netanyahu have nothing to do with the pursuit of justice, but are about the persecution of an individual. The notion of equality before the law has been thrown by the wayside in favor of a well-oiled campaign against democracy.
'Dividing Jerusalem is like asking Solomon to cut the baby in half'

Avi Abelow interview with Mike Huckabee in Knesset.

BOMBSHELL Kerry Audio on rise of ISIS: 'We Watched It Happen-We Thought We Could Probably Manage' It Jeff Dunetz

Bsd

Knowing the atrocities the Yezidis endured not to mention the subsequent  upheaval and threat of ISIS to the world, as a result of the fecklessness of the Obama Administration is sickening. 

It only serves to better appreciate the miracle of Trump's victory.  

We dare not forget that the heart of Kings is in the hand of G-d. May we be deserving of G-d's continued  salvation and may the Trump Administration be governed by G-d fearing people! 

Let us praise Hashem for having saved us from more of this evil and let us rejoice for the coming of age where knowledge of G-d will fill the world!

כי מציון תצא תורה ודבר ה׳ מירושלים!
Because from Zion will come forth Torah and the Word of G-d from Yerushalyim!

We dare not forget what we could have elected and not take it for granted that we were miraculously spared!

Robin,

Pundits and statisticians are still combing over 2016 for countless listicles, but here's a sobering fact that shouldn't get lost in the crowd: last year in the United States, 135 police officers were killed in the line of duty. That's a 10% increase from 2015, and the highest number of police fatalities in five years. While many were accidental, the leading cause of officer casualties was being shot to death.

Those who are advancing themselves by fomenting hatred and violence against the police may try to deny any blame, but it's not just the blood of the officers that's on their hands. In emboldening those who would attack police officers and making their job even more dangerous, they've forced some police departments to reduce their presence in heavily minority neighborhoods. That's led to more crimes committed against the residents. Was that really the goal or just a horrific unintended side effect of an ill-conceived movement?

Sincerely,

Mike Huckabee

The Hits Keep Coming

By Mike Huckabee

And President Obama's executive orders just keep coming. In his latest flurry of last-minute actions, Obama designated several vast areas of land in the West as national monuments to put them off-limits to energy development (this also could cause legal problems for campers, ranchers and other local residents.)

The most controversial is in southwest Utah, where he declared a staggering 1.35 million acres of land to be "Bears Ears National Monument." The state is already planning a lawsuit, and Utah Sen. Mike Lee calls it an outrageous federal land grab and vows to lead the fight to reverse it. Utah Rep. Jason Chaffetz notes that there was already a long-negotiated bipartisan compromise deal in the works to protect Bears Ears. He accused Obama of making a "midnight proclamation" that upended the process. One thing we all should have learned by now is that Obama looks at state governments the same way he looks at Congress: not as separate, sovereign governing bodies with constitutional powers of their own, but as a minor nuisance that can be safely dispensed with by using his pen and phone.

Help Rev. Brunson

By Mike Huckabee

As an apparently ISIS-inspired terrorist was mowing down scores of people in an Istanbul nightclub on New Year's Eve while shouting "Allahu Akbar," a Turkish court was showing an almost surreal concept of "terrorism" by denying the appeal of a North Carolina pastor and longtime missionary, imprisoned on bogus terrorism charges. His real crime appears to be his Christian faith. Over 143,000 people have signed the American Center for Law and Justice's petition to free the Rev. Andrew Brunson. That will now require an iffy appeal to a higher court. The ACLJ hopes that shining an international spotlight on this outrage will help.

1) Friday at Oz veGaon with Rina Ariel

This coming Friday, 7th of Tevet, January 6th at 9:00am, a few days
before the fast of the 10th of Tevet, Rina Ariel, mother of Hallel
Yaffa hy"d, will be speaking at Oz veGaon on the topic: "Making
progress towards the mikdash - from destruction to redemption".

Rina Ariel is a long time activist for the right of Jews to ascend to
Har Habayit. After the murder of her 13 year old daughter, Hallel
Yaffe hy"d, by Arab terrorists who murdered Hallel in her bed at home
in Kiryat Arba Hevron while sleeping, Rina has increased her
activities to promote the topic of Har HaBayit and the building of the
Temple.

A morning not to be missed.

Lecture is in Hebrew with simultaneous translation to English.

2)     The Jewish National Fund at Oz veGaon

There was a special Hanukah celebration last Friday at Oz veGaon. For
the first time, the Jewish National Fund came for an activity at Oz
veGaon!

You could sense the celebratory atmosphere as soon as you entered the
preserve. The JNF flags that were waving in the winter wind with the
warm sun overhead and songs of the Land of Israel in the background
welcomed the hundreds of people who arrived for a day of enjoyable and
meaningful experiences.

Parents and children streamed into the preserve the entire day and
enjoyed the pita baking workshops, the petting corner, the omega (zip
line), pottery making and, of course, inflatable play equipment.

The heads of the JNF Maof program spoke in a small ceremony and
promised to adopt Oz veGaon.

Earlier in the morning there was a festive musical prayer session that
ended with warm, sweet Hanukah sufganiot (donuts). A special Hanukah
lecture was given by Rav Shmuel Dinowitz on the meaning of the holiday
in the synagogue at the preserve, which was filled to capacity with
our loyal Women in Green members who come every week to Oz veGaon.

Towards the afternoon, as is appropriate for the JNF, hundreds of
seedlings were planted throughout the preserve. The mud resulting from
the recent, welcome rains added a special quality to the atmosphere.
There were many visitors, city dwellers who hadn't seen mud since
their childhood. Suddenly they felt that they had returned to the old
Land of Israel and they sensed the important significance of holding
on to the Land of Israel.

Thanks to the JNF for adopting Oz veGaon in its physical and
educational aspects.

Thanks to the local Gush Etsion council, to the field school, to the
Gush Etsion Matnas and to Elyashiv Kimhi, who produced the event with
the help of all of the relevant bodies.

Continue to follow the activity at Oz veGaon and join us!

Bolton to Trump: Cut aid to UN settlement resolution supporters -- The JPost

Robin,

Is this a sign of the Apocalypse? Matt Taibbi at Rolling Stone examined the FBI report used as justification for Obama's aggressive moves against Russia and came to the same conclusion I did: it's a big nothingburger that doesn't pass the smell test. Imagine a story that liberals desperately want to believe being so slanted and poorly sourced that even Rolling Stone refuses to run it!

Note that that didn't stop the New York Times, which is now officially more partisan and less reliable than Rolling Stone.

Happy Monday and Happy 2017 America!

Sincerely,

Mike Huckabee

Happy New Year!

By Mike Huckabee

Happy New Year and welcome to 2017! And not a minute too soon!

I hope you're not nursing a hangover from last night. But if you are, at least take solace in knowing that the long national binge drunk that was 2016 is blessedly over. Last year saw Americans battered by a politicized media and over a billion dollars in attack ads designed to drive us all further apart and into warring fiefdoms. While far too many Americans remain "bitter clingers," refusing to stop fighting a battle that was over in November, let's hope they'll come to realize how much of that anger and animosity they feel was ginned up by political theater, invented by consultants who profit and gain power from fomenting divisiveness.

For the rest of us who just want to make America great again, that starts with putting the election in the rear view mirror. We need to keep our eyes on the tough road ahead, and not let the profiteers of division distract us from all the things we have in common. Let's hope and pray there are no more disasters, be they natural disasters like hurricanes, tornadoes and earthquakes, or manmade disasters, like the terrorist attacks in Berlin, Nice, San Bernardino and Miami. But let's bear in mind that if disasters come, nobody should care if they're in red states or blue states. Wherever and whenever our fellow Americans are hurting, we all pitch in to help.

Let's make 2017 a year to rediscover the things we have in common, and join hands instead of pointing fingers. Maybe reconnect with those Facebook Friends who unfriended you just because you didn't see eye-to-eye on some political issue. If there's one thing previous New Years have taught us, from the Y2K scare to the Mayan Calendar, it's that despite all the apocalyptic gloom and doom talk, the world didn't come to an end. Life goes on. And life is what you make of it. 2017 could be the greatest year ever if we all agree that come what may, we're going to make it great.

If you can't be that optimistic, then just be happy that 2017 isn't an election year! And here's more good news: the 2020 presidential campaigns won't start gearing up in earnest until at least October.

Fake News x2

By Mike Huckabee

Hillary Clinton was right, we do need to be wary of "fake news" from dodgy sources, like…CNN. But at least now we know there will be real consequences for spreading fake news. But only if you work for Donald Trump and not…CNN.

Read more.

More fake news from CNN. Maybe they need to get a more reliable source than the Obama White House. Just to be clear, the direct quote from the White House ("Russia's cyber activities were intended to influence the election, erode faith in US democratic institutions, sow doubt about the integrity of our electoral process, and undermine confidence in the institutions of the U.S. government") is NOT the "fake news" referred to in this story, although it is completely unsubstantiated by the FBI report released this week.
