For more than three years PM Netanyahu
has been able to slip back and forth between the Right and
Left. He recognised the legitimacy of a Palestinian state
(albeit "demilitarised"), agreed to a 10-month
building freeze, allowed DM Ehud Barak to withhold building
permits and destroy Jewish homes, and refused to accept an
official report on the legal status of Judea and Samaria
which he commissioned... With political rivals gaining on
him, primarily over the issue of 'settlements', PM Netanyahu
will be forced to clarify where he stands...
His advantage is that the Right does not
want to topple him; they want him to implement policies that
support the settlement movement. To his disadvantage, he
does not want to be seen as leading a Right-wing government.
The Left would like to defeat him, but have neither the
votes nor a credible candidate.
Naftali Bennett, head of the Bayit Yehudi party, has
challenged conventional Israeli politics by offering a clear
agenda that has wide appeal and confronts the issues which
PM Netanyahu has until now successfully avoided. Bennett's
challenge is not only to PM Netanyahu, but to every other
candidate as well, because of his shifting the campaign from
personalities to issues.
Bennett's threat to the political system is that he
says what he believes, he has a plan and he can be trusted.
For Israeli voters disappointed by candidates they elected,
frustrated by broken promises and cynical politicians,
Bennett has changed the rules of the
game.
For
Bennett, it's not about power, it's about integrity. This
has stirred a revolution in Israeli politics that voters
understand and politicians would do well to
heed.
PS: Likud's chief asset, Prime
Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, may also be its chief
liability. His silence and ambiguity, his failure to preempt
a nuclear-armed Iran and his alignment with Barak Obama on
Middle East affairs affecting Israel's vital security are
hurting his party.
Netanyahu Can't be
Trusted
Prime Minister Binyamin
Netanyahu has stopped progress on plans to build in the E1
area of Maaleh Adumim. Facing international criticism after
the government approved new construction in the area,
Netanyahu is reportedly delaying sending it onward to a
planning committee. The move proves he was never serious
about the plan. MK Uri Ariel (Bayit Yehudi - Tekuma)
accused: "Stopping the publication of the building
plans for E-1 proves that his talk about settlement is an
illusion (political
deception)."
Food for Thought
by
Steven Shamrak
Israeli voters are disillusioned
with 20 years of a useless and self- destructive peace
process, imposed on
Israel by a self-hating and corrupt
political Left. At the same time they no longer trust,
after so many broken
promises, the empty rhetoric of
Netanyahu, who forsake the
Likud party charter. Let us hope that the new political wind
will reestablish national pride and set a new/original
Zionist agenda!
Argentine President Cristina
Fernandez de Kirchner has released a public
letter urging the
United Kingdom
to relinquish its
control over the disputed Falkland
Islands . She accused Britain of taking part in an act
of "blatant colonialism" in claiming the
archipelago and called on UK Prime Minister David Cameron to
honour UN resolutions, 16 December
1965, which stipulated that
both sides should sit at the negotiating
table to resolve the sovereignty
of the Falklands (Malvinas). (It seems that any
sovereign country can ignore UN resolutions when it suits them!
Why is Israel the only country which 'must'
negotiate surrender of its lands - Judea,
Samaria and
Gaza , to
its enemy? Any self-respecting country would
not!)
US-made Missiles Destined for
Gaza
Egyptian security forces in the
Sinai Peninsula intercepted a
shipment of American-made anti-tank and anti-aircraft
missiles destined for the Gaza Strip. Late last month an
attempt was made to smuggle 17 French-made TDI model rockets
into the Gaza. (Hamas fakes the hardship of 'poor
Palestinians' in Gaza
in order to get more international aid to buy
weapons!)
Avigdor Lieberman, former Foreign Minister, declared
on Sunday that he believes in the "two state
solution". Israel has no
imperialistic aspirations, Lieberman said. The government is
ready to agree to a new Arab state,
"Palestine", when
conditions are right and there is a partner for peace. In
his Bar Ilan speech, Netanyahu called for "a
demilitarized Palestinian state, side by side with the
Jewish state." (They
forgot to mention that over 80% of Jewish land is already
occupied by Arabs, who have only one idea in mind -
destroying
Israel
and killing Jews!)
The PA governments in
Gaza (Hamas) and the so-called
"West Bank" (Mahmoud Abbas) have
refused to take so-called Palestinian refugees from
war-ridden Syria
after the UN Works and Relief
Agency (UNWRA), which was created to handle the issue of
Palestinian Arab refugees, asked the PA governments to allow
their brothers from
Syria to enter. Gaza-based Hamas
leader Ismail Haniyeh refused to take the refugees on the
grounds that doing so would set a dangerous precedent for
more Palestinian refugees to come to the Gaza Strip. He
declared that these refugees should return to
Israel
and not to the Gaza Strip. (A two-states solution will not
end conflict. The enemy will insist on the 'return' of bogus
refugees to Israel
later!)
Obama's Direction is
Obvious
Obama
has nominated Chuck Hagelto to succeed retiring Defence
Secretary, Leon Panetta. Hagel's confirmation faces a fight
for endorsement in Congress over his views on
Israel and
Iran .
Critics focus on his calls for direct negotiations with the
Palestinian extremist Hamas, his votes against some
Iran sanctions and opposition to military option against a
nuclear Iran .
Hagel also once said that the Jewish lobby was
"intimidating". (Israel is, as always under most
US administrations, on her own -
it is time to fully realise it and pursue our own national
aspirations!)
Long before he was elected as
Egypt's president,
Mohammed Morsi rejected negotiations between
Israel
and the Palestinian Authority and
referred to Jews as "apes and pigs" and called for
a "military resistance within the
land of Palestine against those criminal
Zionists". As a member of Hamas's parent movement
the Muslim Brotherhood in 2010, comments he made were posted
to the internet that called to boycott products made in the
United
States because of its
support for Israel.
Three Israeli centre-left parties have failed in an
initial attempt to form a united bloc that might have cut
into Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's lead in polls
before the January 22 election.
The Vatican tried to reaffirm its (pretend)
commitment to dialogue with the Jewish people after Bishop
Bernard Fellay, head of the traditionalist Society of St.
Pius X (SSPX), said "the enemies of the Church: the
Jews, the Masons, the modernists in a video in late
December, which is currently circulating on YouTube. (Being a nice and politically
correct person, he did not mention the rise of
Islam!)
Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas has asked his
West Bank-based government to prepare for replacing the
words "Palestinian Authority" with "State of
Palestine". Mark Regev, an Israeli government
spokesman, dismissed the name change as insignificant. (When will deliberately 'ignorant'
Israeli politicians understand that where Jews are
concerned, everything is significant?
Israel must stop any negotiation
with terrorists, who are representing the fake
nation!)
Quote(s) of the Week:
"Most (intelligent) American
legislators and policy makers understand that the strategic
cooperation between Israel and the US does not hinge on the
Palestinian issue or on the settlement issue, not even on
the overall conflict between Israel and the Arab nations.
Rather, it is based on mutual and common interests in the
Middle East and the world over, such as Iran's nuclear
threat, counter-terrorism, missile defence,
intelligence-sharing, battle tactics, defense and commercial
industrial research, where Israel has a competitive edge
over any other country in the world." - Yair Shamir, Deputy Head,
Yisrael Beytenu.
Current Egyptian
President Mohamed Morsi, whose government received support
from the United States and most of the international
'prostitutes', asserted in September
2010:
- Israeli-Palestinian negotiations are "a waste of time and opportunities" as Arabs and Muslims get nothing out of engagement with "the descendants of apes and pigs."
- Morsi denounced the Palestinian Authority as a creation of "the Zionist and American enemies for the sole purpose of opposing the will of the Palestinian people." Therefore, he stressed, "No reasonable person can expect any progress on this track."
- "Either (you accept) the Zionists and everything they want, or else it is war," Morsi said, "This is what these occupiers of the land of Palestine know - these blood-suckers, who attack the Palestinians, these warmongers, the descendants of apes and pigs."
- Morsi called on Arabs and Muslims worldwide to "employ all forms of resistance against...those criminal Zionists, who attack Palestine and the Palestinians."
- Morsi affirmed that "The Zionists have no right to the land of Palestine... What they took before 1947-8 constitutes plundering, and what they are doing now is a continuation of this plundering. By no means do we recognise their Green Line. The land of Palestine belongs to the Palestinians, not to the Zionists."
Note: Just imagine what amount of noise and
international condemnation would be generated if similar
ideas about Arabs and Muslims were expressed by Netanyahu! Anti-Israel bigots can say and do anything
against Israel
and it is ignored and quietly accepted by anti-Semitic
idiots!
