WHERE DOES THAT LEAVE ISRAEL?

PULSE OF ISRAEL

Watch Now

As  things progress as planned, we will have a huge reason to celebrate! It will be the first time ever that every political party, part of an Israeli coalition government, would have platforms that are proud of our authentic Jewish identity! This is huge! Yet, there are so many voices within the Jewish world who are horrified about it.
You do not want to miss this amazing breakdown.

T. Belman. I met with Simcha this week at the Knesset. I was there to inform him how much the Jordan Option coincides with the goals of the Religious Zionist Party. I also sent him this link. https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/notwithstanding-clause-explained-ford-1.6641293 and explained;

“As you can see, this clause is intended to protect against judicial activism. That’s the same reason Israel wants to pass it.  In Canada, the provinces wanted to be the last arbiter of rights. They didn’t want the Canadian Charter of Rights to be the last word. They wanted the provincial parliaments to be the last word. In  Israel, the Knesset also wants the last word, thus the override law.”

MK Atty. Simcha RothmanArutz Sheva

The ascent of MK Simcha Rothman, who was appointed chairman of the Knesset’s powerful Constitution, Law and Justice Committee, may prove to be the biggest nightmare for Israel’s current Supreme Court and its progressive supporters. Rothman has become the poster boy for judicial reform in Israel and has been a leading voice in the fight against judicial activism.

THIS COMES HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
UNFORTUNATELY, MEAD IS A TWO-STATER.

“Few of America’s foreign relations are as internationally controversial and internally contentious as our close relationship with Israel. That relationship has long been under intense criticism, and its true history has been obscured by rhetoric. Fortunately, Walter Russell Mead of the Hudson Institute offers a new perspective on this contested subject in The Arc of a Covenant: The United States, Israel, and the Fate of the Jewish People (Knopf, 2022). Seeking out the truth, Mr. Mead challenges both pro-Zionist and anti-Zionist narratives to shed light on the complicated origins of a now-divisive issue.”

T. Belman. Its time to end proportionality. We must use as much force as is necessary to bring peace to the land. In other words, zero tolerance for terrorism. No more pussy-footing around. Our words must be as bold as our action.

The failure of Iran’s rulers to develop a coherent narrative, let alone a strategy to deal with what looks like an existential crisis for the regime, has led to a chaotic response to the popular uprising.

• The failure of the Khomeinist clique to develop a coherent narrative, let alone a strategy to deal with what looks like an existential crisis for the regime, has led to a chaotic response to the popular uprising. According to semi-official figures, between 300 and 500 protesters have been killed by the security forces and more than 15,000 jailed. By the time of this writing, four executions have also been officially reported.
• But when you break down those figures, a curious pattern emerges.

• The January 28, 2021 appointment as Deputy Assistant Secretary for Israeli and Palestinian Affairs of Hady Amr, a man who wrote “I was inspired by the Palestinian intifada” and who falsely accused Israel of “ethnic cleansing,” was a significant step that promised the worst.
• Two days before that, the Biden administration not only restored relations with the Palestinian Authority, but resumed most of the financial aid that had been suspended by the Trump administration — but they failed to ask the Palestinian leaders to stop financing and supporting terrorism.

The Palestinians aspiration is not to establish a state of their own but to dismantle a state of others

Newt Gingrich 311 (R) 

I think there is an Arab nation. I do not think there is a Palestinian nation. I think it’s a colonialist invention… When were there any Palestinians? …until the 19th century Palestine was the south of greater Syria. – Azmi Bishara, 1994

I think we’ve had an invented Palestinian people who are in fact Arabs, and who were historically part of the Arab community. – Newt Gingrich, 2011

Newt Gingrich is to be warmly commended on his recent statement underscoring the lack of authenticity of Palestinian nationality.

The Modern Orthodox-Lite component is the most endangered.. Reactions to Avi Ciment’s “The Modern Orthodox Conundrum.”

By Rabbi Avraham Gordimer, INN   Dec 10, 2022,

Avi Ciment’s recent series in The Jewish Press, The Modern Orthodox Conundrum (Part I, Part II and Part III), is an absolute must-read. The author rivetingly lays forth the issues facing Modern Orthodoxy and suggests solutions, with great detail and plenty of personal and third-person narrative, making the topic come alive and demonstrating just how serious and compelling the matter is.

Meir Deutsch of RegavimIsrael National News

Speaking at a real estate conference in Eilat, Meir Deutsch, director of the Regavim organization, discussed the phenomenon of paying protection money to criminal groups in Israel, and the effect this is having on society in general.

“This is a problem that is entirely different from how people envision it,” Deutsch told Israel National News. “It has reached the stage where it threatens the personal security of regular Israeli citizens, and I don’t mean just in the Negev. 85 percent of Israel’s building contractors across the country are paying protection money. This drives house prices up, and it also affects agriculture, businesses, and service providers.

Last week, the Lehava organization received an urgent call from a young Jewish woman, begging them to rescue her from her Arab partner who had kidnapped her, assaulted her, and was now threatening to murder her.

Bentzi Gopstein, head of Lehava, related some of the details of the dramatic rescue operation undertaken by his organization, adding that it was the fourth such rescue that week alone. “We barely had time to recover from the previous rescue and we were already on our way to the next one. The number of appeals for help we’re receiving has gone up by dozens of percent recently,” he says.

It’s been a month since the November elections, and it’s obvious that serious irregularities exist in our voting systems.  Unless they are exposed and fixed, our country will have been taken over by our internal and external enemies, and we will never recover.

All of the efforts to fight back against the fraud nationwide have been unsuccessful except for in Maricopa County, Arizona. Kari Lake, the gubernatorial candidate, is still fighting — filing lawsuit after lawsuit in an effort to overturn the “results” in her campaign, where the current secretary of state in charge of the election, Katie Hobbs, was her opponent.  Hobbs wouldn’t recuse herself despite the fact that she would be overseeing her own election.  Unbelievable!  When outrageous election problems caused some counties to withhold their vote certifications, Hobbs threatened them with class 6 felonies.

T. Belman. Bibi’s partners have asked for certain legislation to be passed before the new government is formed. The opposition intends to slow walk the legislation and obstruct.  Then Herzog piles on by giving Bibi only a 10 day extension rather than the usual 14 days.  Even so, Bibi will get it done.

Herzog didn’t leave it at that but when on to lecture Bibi on what he must do like “the coalition being formed must maintain a respectful and responsible dialogue between the authorities—executive, legislature, and judiciary.” and “must preserve the powerful bond with the Jewish Diaspora,”

Seems to me like he is overstepping his role .which is that “of a non-partisan head of state who represents the country and the people as a whole, at home and abroad”

Likud leader now has until December 21 to finalize his right, far-right, ultra-Orthodox  coalition; It ‘must work for the entire public,’ maintain bond with Diaspora, says president

By TOI STAFF      9 December 2022, 3:21 pm

President Isaac Herzog on Friday granted Likud leader and Prime Minister-designate Benjamin Netanyahu 10 additional days to finish forming a government, while indicating concern that the coalition Netanyahu is assembling — set to be the most right-wing in Israeli history — could potentially damage Israel’s democratic checks and balances, breach the spirit of the Declaration of Independence and alienate Jews overseas.
