This Passover, as in every previous Passover, the struggle for Jewish survival continues.
We now face an administration that has turned a bureaucratic flap over an incomplete building permit into a diplomatic crisis with Israel.
Ramat Shlomo is a Jewish neighborhood. The Arabs never protested building there because the Arabs never envisioned that Ramat Shlomo would be turned over to them in a final peace accord.
Twelve years ago, major construction began in Ramat Shlomo without a stone being thrown.
Today, a fourth stage of a seven-stage building permit and the rebuilding of Jerusalem’s central synagogue, malevolently and illegally destroyed under the Jordanian occupation, creates an Intifada, the Obama Intafada.
Obama has created negotiation positions for the Palestinians they themselves knew were unrealistic. But no Palestinian leader can afford to demand less for the Palestinians than the Americans are willing to demand for them.
First there was the demand for a settlement freeze as a prelude to negotiations. But negotiations took place all the time while settlements were being built. Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas never asked for a freeze as a precondition, but once Obama carved out that position, Abbas had to fall into line. Can the Palestinian president be more accommodating to the Israelis than the Americans are?
Then, of course, the Obama administration put the building freeze in Jerusalem on the table. Abbas never asked for a freeze in Jerusalem until after the administration took the lead. Does the Obama administration believe they can make Jerusalem Judenrein (“Jew free”)?
Building in Ramat Shlomo, and the reopening of the central synagogue, the Huvra, transformed into rallying cries for a new Intifada, about which the administration remains mute. Whenever Jews choose to return to where they lived before the Jordanians evicted them, they are met with outcries from the international community. This is the same international community that chose to be blind and mute about Jews being evicted from their homes and cut off from their holy places during the Jordanian occupation.

On her Facebook page Palin posted a note wishing all Jewish people a Happy Passover. Superficially, it is a nice note. However I was amazed that Palin would pretend to embrace or respect Judaism, when she doesn’t.
ReplyDeleteJews do not believe that Jesus was the son of God, and Evangelicals, like Palin, believe that a person can’t go to heaven unless they believe Jesus to be the son of God. I guess Sarah believes that my husband and kids are going to hell. It is these differences in religious belief that caused me to question the sincerity of Palin in wishing all Jews a “Happy Passover”.

So why don't you write a similar complaint about the wishes of liberal Jews who still support Obama? Why are they above suspicion, especially since they wish to collapse the government of Netanyahu, bring in a new "Left" coalition that will rubber stamp Obama's agenda to divide Jerusalem, and roll over the Israeli public opinion like a humvee?
ReplyDeleteYou ONLY find fault with American supporters of a strong and united Israel? Maybe it is your loyalty which ought to be questioned here? Is this timing coincidental?
And of course, you find NOTHING at all strange about Obama holding a Passover seder at the White House, even though he is clearly not Jewish, and is clearly anti-Israel.
Keep your warning, and I will take Palin over Obama any day.
this piece of human garbage called Hussein Obama 'yemach shemo' is a criminaly insane extreme marxist,who absolutely supports the islamic jihad against wetern civilization,and is out to destroy not only Israel but also his own country
ReplyDeletelet's hope and pray that the citizens of America wake up before it's too late and vomit this swine out of office
