The expulsion of Jews from Gaza and northern Samaria is a colossal abuse of human rights. But as far as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch are concerned, these forced removals are simply not taking place. The renowned human rights champions have been deafeningly quiet about the plight of thousands of people being made to […]

The scenes from the Gaza strip in Israel on Thursday shown around the world on live television were frightening and excrutiatingly sad. Israeli storm-troopers storming synagogues and stuffing settlers into windowless cages. Mothers with babies in their arms being yanked out of their homes – homes in which they lived for decades. These same settlers […]

1. CONTINUED DECLINE IN ISRAELI PUBLIC SUPPORT OF “DISENGAGEMENT”. According to August 12, 2005 Dialogue Polling, commissioned by the Dovish daily, Ha’aretz, 45% support “Disengagement”, down from 55% two months ago, in spite of the total support for “disengagement” by Israel’s media. 2. ONE HALF OF ISRAEL’S DEFENSE BUDGET. The Head of Bank of Israel […]

Israel, judging by Prime Minister Sharon’s stubbornly foolish actions and inactions, is determined to die. Ironically, Israel’s existential enemies won’t oblige this suicidal determination all at once. Instead, they will “allow” Israel to disappear slowly; first, by self-inflicted territorial dismemberment and then by relentless war. This long-planned Arab Jihad will be initiated in carefully measured […]

The bulldozers are revving up, thousands of protesters are taking to the streets, and Israel’s security forces are practicing mock evacuations \u2013 but that hasn’t stopped the bulk of American Jewry from striking a shamefully casual pose of inexplicable silence. With just two weeks remaining before the start of the proposed withdrawal from Gaza and […]

The campaign against Ariel Sharon’s Disengagement Plan has mistakenly focused on how to defeat 50,000 troops that Sharon has deployed to carry out his policy. The campaign against Sharon’s plan should instead be focused on how to stop its implementation, before the implementation gains momentum. There are two hot issues that, if systematically marketed to […]

http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | A reader e-mails a link to a news item from Gaza, where some Jewish residents have “tattooed” their national ID numbers on their arms, Auschwitz-style a bitter gesture of protest against their forthcoming expulsion. My correspondent’s comment is blunt. “Misusing Holocaust language and imagery,” she writes. “Utterly disgusting makes me have less sympathy […]

http://www.JewishWorldReview.com | What do Islamist terrorists want? The answer should be obvious, but it is not. A generation ago, terrorists did make their wishes very clear. On hijacking three airliners in September 1970, for example, the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine demanded, with success, the release of Arab terrorists imprisoned in Great Britain, […]

I am writing these lines on the day that Moetzet Yesha (the Council of Jewish Settlements in Judea, Samaria, and Gaza) announced the “Sderot Operation,” as the continuation of the “Kfar Maimon Operation.” I am writing this from the balcony of our caravan (mobile housing unit) in Kfar Yam, Gush Katif. Our family moved from […]

Arabs live in Gaza; so do Jews. Gaza Jews live in towns and villages built on what was previously considered un-farmable land. Junk land. Before 1967, when Israel seized Gaza from Egypt, that land was inhabited by nobody. These are indisputable facts. Arab leaders tell the world that their struggle is not against Jews per […]
