23,085 soldiers in Israel's military campaigns.
3,721 victims of terrorist attacks. Thousands more injured.

We will not be broken.

A screenshot of a blood libel in a journal called Miftah.

Miftah claims it's a smear campaign but mysteriously took down the article.

Seriously, bad faith on their part.

Thoughts?

If anyone on the community has not heard of Caroline Glick you may want to check out her blog: www.carolineglick.com

This is her latest offering and a sobering reminder of the growing anti-Semitism in parts of the world: http://www.carolineglick.com/e/2013/01/bye-bye-london.php#comments

My question to the 'Give Palestinians Arabs their land back' brigade is this:-

Why are not you also campaigning for the Arabs to give Jew's their land back too?

Do you realise that before Israel was set up the region had both Muslim Palestinians and Jewish Palestinans living there?

Do you also realise that when the Palestinian mandate was split, the Arabs got the lions share (Trans-Jordan Palestine), and the Jews got the small, marshy bit?

Was it sneaky of the Arabs to rename Trans-Jordan Palestine into just Jordan, therefore claiming the Jews had stolen all of Palestine, when in fact the Arabs have the majority of it under a new name?

Should the Arab League take responsibility for refusing the 1948 UN partition plan on the grounds that "Arab leaders threatened the Jewish population of Palestine, speaking of "driving the Jews into the sea" and ridding Palestine "of the Zionist Plague"

Is it fair for the Arab Palestinians (who already have an independant state in Trans-Jordan Palestine, now just Jordan), to also want an independant state in the section given to the Jewish Palestinians?

Is it fair to only talk about the plight of the Arab Palestinans were exiled, and not the Jewish Iranians/Iraqis etc who were also exiled?
(Jews were kicked out of their respective farms and homes all around the Middle East, when
the Arabs conspired to exile all Jews from 1948-1970. They were forced to move to Israel.)
Is it fair for the Arab countries to kick the Jews out of their respective countries, force them to migrate to Israel, and then support the destruction of Israel?

Should the Palestinians take any responsibility for refusing to accept the proposals for independance in 2000? (whether you agree with the proposal initially set out, the Palestinians never made a counter proposal).

Lets see if any of you can answer these questions, without name calling or defamatory remarks about me or my perceived political beliefs...

On this day of memorial, I'd like to remember my fallen cousins who paid the ultimate price for the Jewish people. They were swifter than eagles, stronger than lions in their zeal to protect the lives of others. Today, I pay tribute to my family. My grandfather, Jack, Giborai HaGalil who liberated Afula. My cousins in Israel, my heroes. And my friends, who fought. May Hashem bless us with peace, so their guns can be melted into Ipads.


Let us remember.

Saw Israeli soldiers sworn in, and whispered my oath to them. I Invite everyone to take this oath with me, and spread it. In this new year, I hope to see us achieve much for the Jewish state.

Here is my promise.


With my pen, with my words, with my resources, I will serve. I pledge myself to defend the state against delegitimizing and hatred. I pledge myself to the defense of Israel.


What goals should our group have? Let's get organized and get stuff done!

Today, when Gilad Shalit is supposed to be released from captivity (B'Ezrat Ha-Shem) we can't forget the victims of rabid beasts, arab terrorists, who will get out from jail to continue their bloody business...
Please, read the names of the victims. We remember!

Today, Gilad Shalit will mark his fifth year in captivity. It is impossible to count that long of a torture. We can say it’s 1825 days, or nearly 271 weeks, but that scientific measure is too cold for such an ordeal. As I sit at my desk to write, I see the sunshine streaming through my window, and the door to my room closed to keep in the air conditioning. At any point, I can decide to open that door and walk out into the warm daylight. For Gilad, it has been endless night and locked doors.


For five years, he has been denied all humanitarian aid. For five years, he has not hugged his mother or father, heard their voices or laughed with his siblings. For five years, he has been alone in the darkness, where no one can reac h him. It is a sad paradox to note that in Israel, his silhouette is everywhere. His face is on shirts, his name is in the media, but he is gone. His parents sit an endless shiva for their living son.

Last night, my dear friend, my mom and I lit shabbat candles and thought of him. We hope he is warm, and safe, and has enough to eat. And we hope that he comes home soon.

Rabbi Yonatan Milo, a senior lecturer to the IDF, my course of judaism teacher, tells how Awad, druze from Kfar Yaka felt the eternity of jewish strength:
"...And suddenly I understood what is the secret of your strength. When you are together no one can beat you. And this strength you get from here. From Jerusalem. From Western Wall."
