Ceasefire or Cowardice, Bibi??
"This is not a relaxation, it's an Israeli agreement to the rearming of Hamas. What are we getting for this?"
~ Bibi on Olmert's 2008 Ceasefire ~
And yet Israel agrees to a Ceasefire in the same day as a bus is bombed in Tel Aviv? What was the American threat or bribe, Bibi? What caused you to sign up to such a sell out?
I would so love if you would answer my questions, Mr Prime Minister.
We had a chance three years ago to destroy Hamas in Operation Cast Lead. Instead we cowed to international pressure. We had a chance now to destroy Hamas. This time with less international pressure and the supposed support of Obama. At least that is what he has spoken to his media. Instead of continuing our assault and removing Hamas for good, we've Retreated. We needed to keep going, to Crush hamas, Flatten gaza and re-establish the land as part of Israel, populate the land with Jews and rebuild the cities as peaceful areas for Jews and any arabs willing to accept the sovereignity of the Jewish State. This strategy would secure the South from Rocket Rain but also be the best guarantee of arab lives too, which are squandered by hamas. The citizens of the South wanted this, the IDF wanted to 'finish the job'. Why didn't we?
Fox News has said that as part of the Ceasefire deal Israel agreed to open all border crossings with Gaza, including between Gaza and Egypt. What has Egypt got to do with anything and why was this deal brokered there? Why were such Jew haters even included? It obviously wasn't for Israel's good. Israel also agreed to ease the sea blockade. Could we really have agreed to this? And for what .... another failed cycle of 'ceasefires'?
This is not a 'win'. It is a sell out of our Torah & our people. It's time to speak out. It's time we let our government know we will only support it when it truly protects its citizens. And this it has failed to do. It is time to for this government to remember that elections are in the offing & if they don't represent our interests then we will look to elect those who will actually Lead Am Yisrael. To those who will secure our land, destroy our enemies and raise our profile & pride as Jews to the anti semtic world in which we live.
"But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the Land from before you, then those whom you leave over will be as spikes in your eyes and thorns in your sides, and they will harass you in the land in which you settle".
~ Ba'midbar 33.55 ~
So, it's back to the Sound of the South, the Soundtrack of Southern Israel - פסקול החיים בארץ

And the Amazing Rabbi Lazer Brody has this to say ....

Sorry, machos, but the Israeli Government is a loser. And a paper tiger. Here's why:
When you fear One, you fear no one. The politicians here fear everyone but Hashem. That's why they're losers. And, they'll continue to be big losers until they make teshuva, big time.
Between 8-9 PM Wednesday evening, Ashdod was hit with four missile attacks.While Israel's political leaders were busy thanking the USA, the UN, and Egypt in the media for their part in the ceasefire (capitulation) that was supposed to take effect at 9 PM Wednesday, Hamas fired multiple missiles at Ashdod at 10:03 PM and at 10:38 PM. I got home from Jerusalem after my weekly broadcast and a long day, and Hamas wouldn't even let me have a peaceful dinner with my wife. They know that they can continue doing whatever they want.
1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, DC imposed a ceasefire, and Israel's politicians pretend it exists. We here in the south of Israel know that it's a farce. But especially ugly was the PM's statement thanking everyone in the world for engineering the ceasefire except for Hashem. After all of Hashem's miracles, such ingratitude is really a bone in the throat.
Don't get me wrong - the ceasefire, like everything else, is Hashem's will, even if it does seem ridiculous. And it's all for the good too, as everything else Hashem does. First, the ceasefire is designed for all of us here in Israel to take a good hard look at ourselves and to make teshuva, for lukewarm emuna is not enough to win the spiritual struggle against hamas, Hizbulla, and Iran. And second, Hashem will not let an anti-emuna regime succeed, so they won't be able to say that the might of their right hand won the war. So without Hashem, and without invoking Hashem's help, Israel's politicians continue to repeat the ridiculously stupid mistakes of previous conflicts, such as "Cast Lead" in 2009.
Now here this: if we strengthen ourselves in emuna and prayer, Hashem will redeem us quickly despite the government. Hashem loves us infinitely and is doing all this to soften our hearts and strengthen our resolve. The south of Israel is quickly becoming the world capital of emuna - we've seen phenomenal miracles here.
Few will believe me, so I've been saving my breath. The holy Kabbalist Rabbi Yehuda Zeev Leibowitz of blessed memory warned before his death two years ago that difficult times await the Jews of North America. Rather than playing with pointless conjecture and speculations, we'd all be better advised to direct our energies to teshuva, prayer, and strengthening emuna.
Despite our troubles here with the enemies on our borders, Israel is still the safest place on earth for a Jew to be. For anyone that asks me - and I'm not willing to debate the point - start making plans for Aliya right now. Don't let temporary physical amenities and comforts rob you from pursuing an emuna lifestyle. In order to merit the Geula, we must all forsake the Golden Calf and return to Hashem in complete emuna and teshuva. Hurricane Sandy was a louder wake-up call than our current Gaza hostilities. It's time to come home".
Made Me Cry!!!!!
We also have to remember that this is the same Bibi who voted for the diastrous Disengagement plan, the same Bibi who handed over most of Hevron to our sworn enemies, the same Bibi who just recently released 2,000 terrorists, even as he promised he would never do such a thing. Your list of 'sell out' gets longer by the day, Bibi!!!!
ReplyDeleteWhy is Israel willing to negotiate a 'ceasefire' with Hamas via the Muslim Brotherhood ??? It is only a matter of time before Hamas gains complete legitimacy from the rest of the world as Hisbollah has done. Where are our LEADERS?????? Hiding their heads in Shame from the latest sell out!!!
