Poll: Against Ceasefire and Goodwill Measures

Commentary;

This blog does not ordinarily post poll results, but in this case, the Jews must be made to know and to stand up for this reality; Ehud Olmert and his leftist, elitist, punditist regime does NOT have the security and best interests of the Jews in mind by his actions.
Get used to it; Olmert, like Sharon before him will laugh with disdain at empty threats by politicians, the greedy, weak politicians will stick to their seats and their Knesset mandates “like stuck with cement.” read more

What Happens When You Cave to Blackmail, By Itamar Marcus and Barbara Crook (Jerusalem Post)

Excerpts;

Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and his cabinet have found a unique way to celebrate the Islamic holiday of Id al-Adha, the “Festival of the Sacrifice,” that commemorates the willingness of Abraham to sacrifice his son.

Parsha Vayigash 5767: Jewish Unity vs The Boiled Lobster

by, Moshe Burt

We leyned in the previous Parsha Mikeitz about the whole affair between Yosef and the brothers when they came to Mitzrayim to buy food and were accused by the Viceroy of being spies. We learned how after hearing their story and family history, the Viceroy demanded that they bring their youngest brother to him and incarcerated Shimon as insurance that the brothers would indeed return with Binyamin, their youngest brother. We learn that in the middle of Parsha Mikeitz, with the imprisonment of Shimon, the brothers recognized and attributed their predicament to the sin they had committed earlier by throwing Yosef into the pit and then selling him to the Mitzriyim. Yosef heard and understood their conversation and left their presence to cry silently. (Perek 42, posukim 21-24) read more
