Desecration Of The Holy Koran

DISASTER OF “DISENGAGEMENT”

There are three simple and smart reasons to stop the reward of terrorism otherwise known as the “disengagement” plan.

First and foremost…

Because the Land belongs to Israel & Jewish people. Our Right to the Land of Israel.

G-d gave a very precious gift to the Children of Israel in an eternal covenant that can never ever be broken of the Holy Land, Promised Land, Eretz Yisrael, or today Medinat Yisrael, or modern nation State of Israel as documented in the other precious gift, the Bible, Chumash, Five Books of Moses, Pentateuch, or Torah which is the Deed of Trust to the Land.  These two greatest gifts can not be given away nor stolen away.

There is a fundamental argument that must be dealt with. At the bottom of all the Arab rhetoric lies one basic claim: “You are intruders. This is our land. We had been living here for centuries and then you decided to take it from us.” Once it is established that the Jews have a valid right to the Land of Israel, then the violence, hatred, and disregard for life that has characterized the Arab position can be judged for what it is. Unless that right is established, the Arabs will always claim that they have a valid goal: reclaiming a land that is rightfully theirs. And once validity is granted to their goal, the debate whether all means are acceptable to attain it or not is one of philosophy.

What is our claim to the land? G-d’s promise in the Torah. G-d told Abraham: “I have given this land to your descendants.” For one-and-a-half thousand years the Land of Israel was our home, and ever since then, Jews everywhere have longed to come home to their eternal heritage to Jerusalem, the site of the Holy Temple;to Hebron, the burial place of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; and to Bethlehem, where Rachel weeps for her dispersed children and awaits their return. Even throughout the two thousand years during which our people wandered from country to country, Israel has remained the national home of every Jew. From the beginning of the exile until this day, no matter how farflung his current host country might be, every Jew has turned to face the Holy Land in his thrice-daily prayers. So central is this principle to our faith, that Rashi, the foremost of the traditional commentators on the Torah, begins his commentary by stating: Rabbi Yitzchak said: The Torah should have begun with the verse, “This month shall be for you the first of the months…,” for this introduces the first commandment given to Israel.

Why then does it begin with the narrative of creation?…

So that if the nations of the world say to Israel, “You are robbers, because you took by force the lands of the seven nations [of Canaan],” Israel will reply to them: “The entire world belongs to the Holy One, blessed be He; He created it and gave it to whomever He pleased. Of His own will He gave it to them, and of His own will He took it from them and gave it to us.”

From this perspective the entire Land of Israel not only the coastal region, Jerusalem, and the Galilee, but also Judea, Samaria, and indeed every tiny portion of the land is part of an organic whole, an indivisible and sanctified unity. In this spirit, the Kneisiyah HaGedolah of Agudas Yisrael, an assembly of Jewry’s foremost sages in the pre-Holocaust era, declared in 1937: The Holy Land, whose boundaries were prescribed by the Holy One, blessed be He, in His holy Torah, was granted to the nation of Israel, the eternal people. Any sacrifice of the Holy Land that was granted to us by G-d is of absolutely no validity. This explanation is, moreover, the only rationale that cannot be refuted by the Arabs or the Americans. They also accept the Bible and believe in the truth of its prophecies. The Koran does not dispute the Jews’ right to the Land of Israel. And can you conceive of an American president telling his people that G-d’s promise to Abraham is not relevant? Indeed, the connection between the land and our people is so well established that everywhere it is referred to as “the Land of Israel.” For this reason, it is important to emphasize that this connection is rooted in the Bible’s prophecies. It would not be desirable to base our claim to the Land of Israel on the Balfour Declaration or international agreements of the present century, for these agreements could be countermanded by other ones. After all, how favorable is the United Nations to Israel today? Nor is the fact that our people once lived in the land sufficient in and of itself to establish our claim to it today. If the American Indians would lodge a claim to all of America, would it be granted them?  These were actually indigenous native people unlike those Arabs who claim they are the “Palestinians” descended from the “Philistines” because the former are descendants of Ishmael while the later are an extinct people of a Mediterranean sea-faring people who lived in Gaza When the Bible’s prophecies serve as the basis for our claim, then many other arguments are effective in reinforcing the position. But when that foundation is lacking, we have difficulty refuting the gentiles’ claim: “You are robbers, because you took by force the lands of the… nations.” After thousands of years of exile, our people have returned to our land. Every portion of the land over which Jewish authority is exercised was won in defensive wars in which   G-d showed overt miracles. Now when G-d grants His people land in such ways, should it be returned? Is it proper to spurn a Divine gift?

Safety and Security

Gaza is Israel’s buffer and security zone and its strategic importance should not be denied, forgotten or ignored by those sworn to safety and security of Israel’s citizens. All of them.  Those in the disputed territory as well. Smuggling operations continue daily from Egypt’s underground tunnels and beachside coastal operations such as the Karine A weapons of mass destruction operation financed by Iran on a ship with 50 tons of weapons intended to be used against the only beacon of democracy and freedom and tiny Jewish nation state in the entire world as opposed to the 22 Arab/Islamist corrupt dictatorships, human rights violators, ruthless repressive regimes, state supporters of terrorism, and tyrannies that comprise the very bad neighborhood known as the Medieval Middle East.

Why create another Arab/Islamist and  23^rd State of Terrorism that will be called Palestine?

Economic Stability and Success

Love of the Land has turned this area from desert yellow to leafy green. A desert of wandering dunes has become the flagship of Israel’s agricultural exports.

In Gush Katif Bloc’s unique hothouses, using the most advanced technology, leafy vegetables and herbs are grown, all bug-free, answering to the strictest health, aesthetic and religious requirements. Most of the chemical-free organic agricultural products are exported to Europe. In addition, the community of Atzmona has Israel’s largest plant nursery, and the Katif barns with 800 cows are the second largest in Israel. 

Conclusive Case Against Disengagement

A conclusive case against the “disengagement” can be easily made.

“Disengagement will advance terrorism rather than peace.  If the PA/PLO gets territory in return for terrorism it sets a shining example for other Arab/Islamist nations to exact and extract political concessions through terrorism rather than via a peaceful negotiation process with Israel and sets a very dangerous precedent.   The plan for unilateral “disengagement” or “withdrawal” fuels political pressure through violence.  A reward for the support of terrorism will transform Jerusalem, Tel Aviv (including Ben-Gurion Airport) Haifa, Netanya, Afula, Ashdod, Ashekelon, and other major places into targets for a future state of terrorism and its missile range. Already, the “disengagement” of southern Lebanon has proven disastrous as Hizbollah know has a launching point for missiles that can destroy major population centers in Israel. The July 2000 “disengagement” from Israel’s security buffer zone in occupied southern Lebanon has propelled Hizbollah from a local to a regional stature.  The proximity of this terrorist organization plagues U.S. troops in Afghanistan and Iraq with Arab/Islamist terrorism.

 The Oslo driven “disengagements” have ignited an unprecedented wave of Arab terrorism. Each and every square inch added to the PA/PLO since 1994 has become the largest terrorist base in the world, a safe haven for Arab/Islamist terrorists under the control and domination of the Iran-Syrian axis of evil and support of terrorism.

Israel has not controlled the Arabs living in Gaza since the “disengagement” 1994 Oslo Accord. The PA/PLO controls and dominates the territory together with its sister terrorist organizations Hamas, Hezbollah, and Islamic Jihad, working hand in hand in towards the annihilation and complete destruction of the only Jewish  nation state in the entire world. “Disengagement” therefore would not impact Israel’s demography. “Disengagement” of Gaza and Gush Katif has similar symptoms of the failed Oslo Accord and failed peace process. Land for Terrorism. Nothing less. Nothing more. Israel is getting nothing in return in its unholy alliance and agreement at suicidal self-destruction otherwise erroneously and falsely called withdrawal.  The withdrawal symptoms re weakness and willingness to self-destruct as seen through the eyes of the Arab/Islamists. 

“Disengagement” is a complete setback for deterrence, intelligence gathering and pursuit of peace.  In other words the plan is a bottomless keg, militarily diplomatically and economically.

 “Disengagement” would not be financed by the U.S.  It will increase the budget deficit, avert economic recovery, worsen unemployment, increase taxes, impose government bonds, cut human services and infrastructure expenditures and much much more. Israel and the Jewish people better beware of Bush’s call for a total freeze of all so-called “settlements” (derisively used as gypsies living in tents) and Condaleeza’s call for a contiguous Arab “Palestine” (according to the Balfour Declaration all Palestine was to be a Jewish homeland and the British Mandate gave away 80% to the Arabs in the created Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, formerly Transjordan.   Bush’s comment is deceptive and fraudulent “that any final status agreement [including the “right of return”] will only be achieved on the basis of mutually agreed changes.”

On the one hand...

Bush’s refusal to finance the disengagement” confirms that disengagement” will not produce any benefit to America as well as Israel.  His friendly statements were not legislated and ratified by Congress, which merely passed a non-binding resolution.

On the other hand...

Bush’s recent offer to fund the PA/PLO with $50 million U.S. taxpayer money also sends a mixed message to the Medieval Middle East comprised already of 22 Arab/Islamist corrupt dictatorships, human rights violators, ruthless repressive regimes, state sponsors of terrorism as compared to the only Jewish nation state in the entire world and only beacon of freedom and democracy and true blue American ally in the entire region.  Why create a second Arab “Palestine” and twenty-third state sponsor of terrorism and tyranny? Is a terrorist a terrorist?  What about Mahmoud Abbas, “Chief of Terrorism” elect of the PA/PLO and “Mr. Moderate”? As Arafat’s partner in organized crime for over forty years the holocaust denier and financier of the Munich Olympic massacre has not changed spots.  Only into a more palatable image with a better barber and more stylish suit.  Make no mistake.  Mahmoud is a cold-blooded murderer and terrorist. While Middle East peace has been driven by deterrence, “disengagement” guarantees destruction and undermines deterrence. 

Disengagement is destructive. Disengagement is dishonest.  Disengagement is disastrous.

JEWS TRANSFER JEWS

Jews transferring Jews to remove them for Arabs. What is wrong with this idea? The very idea is a sick terrible tragedy of helping others but not ourselves. In fact, helping our enemy sworn to destroy us to do it ourselves. The ONLY Jewish nation state in the world is self-destructing by giving G-d’s gift of an eternal covenant with the Children of Israel for "Holy Land" or "Promised Land" for a Jewish homeland not another Arab homeland. First we witnessed the impending transfer of Jews from Gaza in Sharon’s surrender to terrorism and terrorists, referred to "disengagement plan" to soften the blow to the people. Now the Lod vice mayor calls for the transfer of Jews from an Arab neighborhood.

What is going on here? HELP!

Lod vice mayor Emil Haddad has called for the state to finance the evacuation of the Jewish residents of the Ramat Eshkol neighborhood, where 70 percent of the residents are Arabs. Haddad is certain his plan is the best way "to save the Jews" living there from "harassment," as he says, from the Arabs. "In any case, there are 700 housing units needed for Arabs in Lod. The Housing Ministry should just buy those apartments from the minority of Jewish families still living in Ramat Eshkol, and move them to a new neighborhood that will be built in the northern part of the city. We'll make available 460 dunam and build a good, quality neighborhood," he said. Haddad is so sure of his plan that he calls its opponents "blind." The veteran Likud activist says that he is very close to Prime Minister Ariel Sharon. "I'm the closest to him," he brags. "He'll hear about my plan and I hope he loves it. I also plan to present it to Absorption Minister Tzipi Livne. This is the solution to the problem here. You have to understand, I say these things as a Lod resident, who was born here and lived here 51 years." Haddad is bothered by the complaints from neighborhood residents. "According to the complaints, I understand that it is impossible to live there. A young Arab can come along and make friends with a young Jewish woman, and her mother won't say a word. She won't complain. She won't talk. She'll just be afraid." Aharon Ganashvilli, a resident of the neighborhood, agrees. "There's no choice," he says, "My family is one of the few Jewish families left in Ramat Eshkol. I've suffered for years. It is impossible to go on like this. Already 25 years ago, when the first Arab family moved in, we warned this would happen. Now we have to leave, go live somewhere else." Another resident, who is opposed to Haddad's idea, nonetheless reports about stones thrown by Arab children at Shaarei Shamayim, a synagogue in the neighborhood. "The synagogue was full of worshipers' but Haddad's talk legitimizes such things." According to city hall officials, some 70 percent of the 500 families living in Ramat Eshkol, are Arab, and the rest are Jewish. Most of the Jewish residents are poor, new immigrants from Russia and Ethiopia who don't have the money to move to other, better neighborhoods. Those who can leave the neighborhood didn't wait for Haddad. "Up until a decade ago," said a Lod city councilor, "the Arab families were not even 7 percent of the neighborhood, but the Jews left the neighborhood over the years, paving the way for the Arab families to move in." Haddad, whose idea was first reported last week in the local weekly, Ayalon of Yedioth Tikshoret, caused a scandal in the mixed city with the idea. Opponents of the plan - and there are many in the town - said it sounds like "transfer" for the Jews. Others say that the idea is sheer populism, meant to improve his political stature. Mayor Benny Regev made it clear that Haddad's idea is Haddad's alone, that he has nothing to do with it, and that it does not represent the city's policy. When he encountered a couple of dozen demonstrators from Yisrael Beitenu yesterday outside city hall, he told them that the ruckus was "much ado about nothing." Yisrael Beitenu appears to be the most upset about the Haddad proposal, and party leader Avigdor Lieberman has become involved. "It is horrifying," he says, "especially because it comes from someone from the Likud. We understand that there is pressure from Arabs, and people are running away. That's how we ran away from Lebanon, that's how they want to run away from Gush Katif and now they want to run from Lod. This is a dangerous precedent with ramifications for other mixed cities like Ramle, Upper Nazareth and Jaffa."

The Arabs of Ramat Eshkol don't exactly understand what Haddad is upset about. They are proud of the coexistence in the neighborhood. Yatim Seif, 20, says "Haddad's plan is sheer racism. Instead of investing so much energy in such an approach, let him nurture the neighborhood a little. Clean up the playgrounds that are full of garbage, put up a fence around the basketball court near our homes, trim the bushes that block the sidewalks." Shabtai Katash, from the independent religious list in the city council, also opposes the plan, and has offered one of his own instead. "A Torah-oriented group should move in, settle there and at the same time the police presence in the neighborhood should be strengthened." Katash and nine other city councilors want to hear an explanation form Haddad. "If he means what he says, we will lead a move to have him removed from office," said Deputy Mayor Rafi Krichli, a Yisrael Beitenu politician. "He simply wants to transfer Jews in the heart of the country. Escape? Run away? Give the neighborhood to the Arabs? We want the neighborhood to remain Jewish." If the Arabs don’t grab land by bombing Jewish citizens to destroy and eliminate the population, Israel’s leaders will give it away to the Arabs who are stealing our great gift given to us by G-d. Are we willing to give up the gift? Apparently so. Why? There are presently 22 Arab/Islamist nations. Most of them have expelled forcibly the nearly one million Arab Jews that lived in those places for hundreds and thousands of years. There is only a miniscule number of Jews left anywhere in any Arab nation.

The Jewish State of Israel should allow its Jewish citizens to live wherever they choose and not forcibly remove or transfer them. Instead they should consider the removal or transfer of the Arab population back to where they rightfully belong to their homelands in Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria. A Jewish State can only remain so if it treats the Arabs fairly and squarely by treating them to a free transfer back home. Jewish rights in a Jewish state must be considered first as top priority. Let's remove the Arab settlers and squatters who are living in a Jewish state and let them have their "right of return" to their ancestral homeland of Arabia where I am sure they will enjoy the democracy and freedoms of the corrupt dictatorships, human rights violators, ruthless repressive regimes and tyrannies.
