Boldness of Lies Wafting on Evil Breezes

 

One can check for the following quote with a search using the entire quote and will find the original article in multiple places. Well, we just had to have our say which will hopefully be a little different and perhaps cast more light onto the subject and the many arenas where such events are being carried out by different players but all with the same means. They use lies, accusations, and demands in the hopes of being believed and thus discrediting all opposition, all in the truest form of the real fascists. This is a game which has been played before and these are the same exact steps, the same exact lies, the same exact accusations and soon we will see similar violence which those who silently instigate much of the violence promise to save us from the violence and this has all been used by the previous usurpers. We have spoken of this and now it creeps into another political game which means that this time the usurpers desire more than one nation or one continent but this time they aim for the world. Now here is the latest war cry of the usurper claiming that all evil is born everywhere but in their camp, the first lie, the introduction to what will come.

“We are undergoing a process of fascistization of Israeli politics. These are hard words but they are true. Artists, actors and playwrights are under threat, Supreme Court justices and judges generally are threatened, journalists are fired and are threatened, journalists and newspapers are under threat of being closed by the authorities, and now also academics are under threat and can say nothing.” Head of Opposition, Isaac Herzog, Holon, June, 24, 2017

 

Head of Opposition Isaac Herzog

 

This is the same tired accusation made repeatedly by Mr. Herzog and his ilk every time there is anything introduced which might permit equal opportunity into the hallmark institutions which currently are leftist strongholds. Here is a simple but not complete list of such institutions around the world which the leftists control with near complete impunity and lack of opposition; mainstream media, NGOs (nongovernmental organizations), courts (with the exception of the United States where the judges in the courts are appointed by elected officials, and even in the United States the left are strong within the court system as has been evidenced by their use against President Trump), and Academia where tenure is denied professors unless they are proven and tested to be pure leftists. The media is meeting a problem which the leftists would dearly love to strangle, the Internet and the free exchange of information. The Internet also provides an alternative to the information put forth by the NGOs. What has not been prevented by the Internet is the marriage between the media and the NGOs where the NGO makes statements or accusations demeaning those not aligned exclusively with their causes and the media amplifies their words repeating them in print which is in turn used by the NGOs as validation of their views which is again repeated in the media with this circle continuing all too often ad nauseum.

 

The fastest way to get the leftist political class screaming is to introduce any measure of fairness or free debate into the systems which they control. Examples include altering the appointment of new judges taking it from the existing legal system and giving it to elected officials who are answerable to the electorate, to the people. When such was suggested in Israel, the entirety of the media, academia, the legal associations and the leftist politicians who are not in power and are unlikely to regain power unless through subterfuge, exploded in the media in op eds as well as went running to the Supreme Court screaming, “foul.” Our friend, Isaac Herzog, gave a prime example of the courts siding with the left politically and further during the furor where demands were being posed to force the Prime Minister to relinquish the communications portfolio regarding which Herzog’s self-praise, even before the justices’ decision, judging by his Facebook post, it was important to him that he make clear that he himself filed the petition and that the “High Court in an unusual step issued a conditional order that directs the Prime Minister and the Attorney General to explain why they won’t respond to the petition.” Going a step further, Herzog and his people maneuvered to spread word of the court’s decision to the television news channels for prime time. If only some professor would offer a course selectively examining the political brilliance displayed by Opposition Leader Isaac Herzog in the fight against the imperialist Prime Minister Netanyahu trying to run the government all by himself (now that we have posed the idea, any bets on how long before some professor actually uses this in his coursework?), we would have hit the trifecta, courts, media and academia.

 

When there was an attempt to have NGOs which receive over half their funding from outside of Israel report themselves as being foreign NGOs, and not pass themselves off as Israeli NGOs, the left in the media went into an uproar and the political left declared that totalitarianism was coming to Israel. The Guardian reported that Isaac Herzog stated that, “The NGO law … is indicative, more than anything, of the budding fascism creeping into Israeli society.” Just in case you were wondering, the political “F” word pops right out of Isaak’s mouth whenever things move even the slightest towards the center. Isaak fears that should things ever be moved from pegged so far to the left that the only thing keeping the needle from sliding out of view is the little peg holding it where it can be located, but the needle is bending. The people are getting tired of the universality of leftist control in every arena throughout Israel except elections, but they refuse to permit equal footing in their little fiefdoms, media, courts, and academia.

 

But Israel is not the only place where the left is screaming of injustices, cheating and of having been robbed. Yes, we’re speaking of the elections, surprise elections according to many, of Donald Trump over Hillary Clinton. If you have been reading much of the mainstream media, especially the New York Times, then you are pretty much convinced that the Russians were running President Trump’s campaign and without Putin, Trump would have lost. You would also have believed that had Hillary been elected, her first move would have been to fire then Director of the FBI James Comey. Then, suddenly when President Trump “mishandled” the firing of former FBI Director Comey, suddenly he was the hero of the hour who would hand the Senate Committee investigating Trump and, you know, we forget what. The important thing is that as soon as Mr. Comey’s testimony did not lead to Trump being impeached, he became a worthless miscreant who never should have been Director of the FBI once again. Then there are the courts in the United States which took turns preventing President Trump from making a legal alteration to immigration policy claiming that it broke his campaign pledges. That actually was one judge’s reason which made breaking a campaign pledges into a legal reason for a decision. Meanwhile, the liberal and leftist outrage had barely lost even an ounce of steam since the results came out and Hillary conceded. There are still wall-to-wall postings which seem to go in circles from one person to the next until they complete the circuit and start all over again as if they were brand new. This, too, is one of the steps in the real attempted fascist takeover, but the people making the noise are unaware of their part. They are the true believers and the first to get hurt when freedoms are lost. They are also the most surprised when their heroes become the villains and the ones they labeled as villains turn out not to be the guilty as charged.

 

Just to be fair to our regular readers who have read the step-by-step guide to how leftists use their tools to instigate and install their dictatorial, and by the way, fascist governance and bring elections to an end, we will just give the broad-brushed sketch. The first requirement is an enemy let us say Trump. Then there need be belief that the left lost unfairly. Then protests followed by slowly increasing levels of violence. Then there are the demands for an end to the violence. The violence is blamed on the initial enemy or the next one who wins against the left unfairly, usually soon after the initial enemy and also seemingly against the predictions of the media, surprise, surprise. The more the person perceived to be a right wing extremist, as painted by the media, tries to end the violence, the more it increases and they are blamed for not doing the job because they support many of the ones causing the violence, and any leftists who get caught are simply responding to the right-wing violence. Eventually, the leftists promise to end the violence if only the Constitution is altered to give them the power, as is currently happening in Venezuela. Once they get their unopposable power, then they take care of the violence with greater violence and freedom dies quietly in the background.

 

Venezuela’s upcoming referendum on drafting a new Constitution will be something to watch and expect that it will not be a fair election. Once Maduro wins, Venezuela will no longer be amongst the free nations. All initial indications would indicate that the people are not in favor of a new Constitution, but that may not be the determination of the election, and that will be the great sorrow of it all. The real sorrow is the people never really learn because the way history is taught, memorize dates, memorize insignificant preambles and other trivial items but never, ever tell an interesting story, because that is what real history is, stories. But the stories would stick in the minds and make the young interested in history and then they would learn and with that knowledge they would be able to see things unfolding, and the elites do not want an educated public because that would make them too difficult to govern and fool time and time again. Now that is what government is about in far too many places in our world today, and that is truly sad.

 

Beyond the Cusp

 

President Obama’s Wars on United States and Israel

 

President Obama has eleven months to do the damage he has desired to do all along. First off he will finally do all the things he has complained he did not have the power to do because of the restraints in the Constitution. Those are the introductory steps. His main other goal is to make the United States after the image of Europe except on steroids. His aims are to advance socialism and more effective governance in the lives of the subjects under the United States government. He will do all in his power to centralize all powers away from the individual states and place them within the Federal Government basket of powers. He has shifted healthcare to the central figures within the IRS. He has centralized all Federal grounds which used to be shared with the respective states into the BLM (Bureau of Land Management) and removed state access and land use grants into the BLM or the Parks and Planning and other Federal Park Administrative powers. President Obama is still heavily expounding the depth of Common Core in order to completely federalize the school systems. Expect biometric cameras to become mandated in order to receive extremely sizeable funding for a special program intended for special needs children and a new way of observing classrooms and identifying such needs in every child. This will place every child under Federal mandates and special educational tracking. Such tracking will be sold as making the educational experienced tailored to meet every individual child’s learning habits. What it will do is train each child to fill a slot predetermined to be their optimum ability being utilized. This will rob every child’s ability to strive, to become greater than their expectations. The Gates Foundation is heavily behind this system and using it to identify special problems before they become destructive.

 

 

 

 

One of the things President Obama will do in his final year in office is to make federal loans and other monies easier for students to receive for going to college. This will also place more young adults strapped with heavier student loan debt. These students will be offered a way out from under such debt by joining into some government program where they presumably pay back their loan monies through working for the government and receiving their normal government salary and the debt will steadily decrease with time. Many of these students will then remain as Federal Government employees. This will swell the numbers of Federal Employees.

 

In the Middle East and North Africa the plan is simple. Whatever “refugees” Europe cannot handle or wishes to send back, which is impossible, or elsewhere will be taken in by President Obama. These rejected “refugees” already count in the tens of thousands if not hundreds of thousands. He will continue to avoid taking any serious actions in the Middle East and beyond in the Arab and Muslim world to resolve any of the turmoil. The President views what is happening as a good thing as it presumably removes the colonial influences which has been pervasive as per the dreams of his Father. Read about what he finds pleasing and proper from his book Dreams of my Father where he plainly states that the colonial past must be erased and forgotten if the underdeveloped world is ever to advance. This view goes farther than just the Middle East and the Muslim world despite that being his main target and should Islam prove to become a problem threatening the Western World, President Obama sees that too as retributions for the sins of colonialization. Little does he realize but the original sin in the area was the Arab Muslim colonialization which preceded the European colonialization which began after World War I and the collapse of the Ottoman Empire and ended around the beginning or end of World War II. President Obama will have people scour the law books and find whatever therein in taking all government power and placing it within the purview of the White House. This brings us to Israel.

 

 

 

Recently President Obama’s research arm dug up an old mention in some law which allowed for the marking of all products made from beyond the Green Line separate from the rest of Israel. This new demarcation was even to include those areas which according to the Oslo Accords and everything which followed as to legally be permitted for Israel to build without restrictions as these areas were to become part of Israel’s necessary defense security zone. But why allow International Law to get in the way of slowly starting the dismantling of Israel. The remainder of President Obama’s time in office will be spent in an undeclared war on Israel. Marking all items grown, made or in any way touched by hands or found in the lands beyond the Green Line as made or produced in the West Bank. Using the term West Bank is reinforcing the concept that this was and should always be Arab lands. That is why it does not say Judea and Samaria but instead uses the Jordanian name which they used when Jordan illegally attempted to annex these very lands and extended citizenship to the people living in these lands. Jordan even relocated thousands of their citizens to reside in these lands and placed many in the homes of the Jews who were expelled by threat of death. These Jews were sent to live in what remained of Israel after the Arab forces occupied by military force parts of Israel after they declared a war of genocide against the Jews of Israel. These gains are exactly what President Obama wants to start with labeling so it is made to appear not a part of Israel as part of his coming peace initiative.

 

President Obama plans on making the United States the enforcement arm and leader of the European Union war on Israel. There will be certain European governments who will volunteer to be the front line in this assault standing side-by-side with the United States. Count Sweden as the prime example and likely France and any other European nation with a leftist government. The hoped for aim is to force Israel, by recognizing a state for the Arabs residing in the West Bank of Palestine, into making grand concessions. It is these exact concessions they will claim are preventing there being any negotiations. This is a true statement because Europeans and President Obama with John Kerry being the messaging pigeon have all conveyed their promises for generous concessions from Israel are coming if only the Arab Palestinians would resume negotiations. Abbas turned that on its head as usual and demanded the concessions be granted up-front as he claimed that Israel would otherwise refuse to grant them until the Palestinians made concessions. Abbas claimed that Israel would pocket these additional concessions just as they have done when Palestinians have made concessions previously and Israel simply walked out ending the negotiations. Obviously Abbas cannot mean such after the generous offer made when Yasser Arafat told President Bill Clinton exactly what Israel would necessarily need to do in order to have a peace with the Palestinians. These demands by Arafat included the surrender of most of East Jerusalem to serve as the Palestinian capital and other Israeli land concessions he thought the Israelis would refuse. To Arafat’s shock and dismay the Israelis agreed on his terms at which point Arafat walked from the Paris negotiations never to return or even make additional demands. He had been so sure Israel would have rejected and saved the day, he miscalculated. It is for exactly this reason the Arab side has never made set demands for statehood as they fear the Israelis might accept them once again.

 

The aims of President Obama and his European allies are to pressure Israel by systematically threatening to recognize the Arab State of Palestine without defining the boundaries of this entity which has always been the sticking point. The borders are always to be determined which has presumably been the plan from the beginning which is where the talks inevitably fall short. But President Obama has a new plan, define temporary borders for everybody to recognize as the minimal size and scope of an Arab Palestinian state. These borders would then need to be cleared of any and all Jews which are where the Israeli concessions come in to play. One could expect that the delivery of the F 35 Strike Fighter Jets delivery could be added incentive for Israel to agree to such a plan. The boundaries are very likely to be exactly the same boundaries from before the Six Day War, simply another war of annihilation brought onto the State of Israel. President Obama is determined to found the State of Palestine on the grave of Israel, now or future, of that is what it demands. His aim initially is to provide the State of Palestine the boundaries which Israel and Jordan had agreed to as the end point of hostilities in an armistice of 1949. Since then Jordan made a peace with Israel and when months later Yasser Arafat and Mahmoud Abbas demanded that the King of Jordan at least pass his claim, bogus as they were based on nineteen years of admitted occupation, of the region of Judea and Samaria to the PLO terror organization, he immediately did so despite having relinquished them back to their proper owner, Israel. We promise to produce an article again some day going over the reason the Arab claims to the land are invalid.

 

 

 

Further on the Israel front, President Obama is likely to make some attempt to bring down the Netanyahu led right nationalist government. The plan is to then replace it with a Universalist leftist government which holds Israeli democracy as the more noble goal than Israel, home of the Jews. The push will be to grant Palestinians and other refugees to have access just as simple and easy as Jews on the basis of Right of Return. The predication of this demand is upon the Abbas and other’s claims that the Palestinian Arabs are not descended from the same areas in the Arabian Peninsula but are the remainder of the seven Canaanite kingdoms. This, they claim, makes their claims to the lands in question four to five thousands of years and thus older than any Jewish claims. Whatever the logic utilized to form this Palestine, borders is the least of their problems, or perhaps it is their greatest problem. One has to realize that the only borders Yasser Arafat and in turn Mahmoud Abbas have always, since Paris and that debacle, laid their claim on the idea and slogan made famous at almost every demonstration across the Western World with the chanting of, “From the (Jordan) River to the (Mediterranean) Sea, Palestine will be free.” The single other reality one must remember is that any lands granted the Palestinians must first be cleansed of its Jewish population, both alive and those entombed there. So the Jews who are being evicted from their lands and having their lives overturned have the additional trauma of their ancestors being reinterred inside Israel with the family reliving the event and explaining why grandmother and grandfather are being buried again. But even if President Obama manages to squeeze Prime Minister Netanyahu sufficiently that he would relent and pull completely out from the areas within Judea and Samaria then President Obama would have gained his other victory, the overturning of the Netanyahu coalition. The object would then be to portray Isaac Herzog as the greatest and most ardent Zionist since Ze’ev Jabotinsky. The greatest problem which would present itself if Netanyahu has become presumably poisonous and toxic to the United States and Europe, which might actually serve him providing him with potentially the best campaign slogan ever as he could claim to be the un-Europe, un-Obama and un-concessions candidate that is pro-one state solution and in offering to buy out any Arab who desires to take the money and start a new life somewhere outside of Israel. There would necessarily need for some to be simply sent off on their way unceremoniously as their presence would prove toxic. Israel should reserve the right to buy out peoples properties and add to that the allowance to resettle elsewhere to be used on those family members of any individual conducting any of terror assault. These deportations would be exactly that, deportations.

 

The Arabs in the newly annexed areas of Judea and Samaria would receive trial citizenship which would permit them voting in any local elections but be barred for a set period of time and until they complete a series of courses on Biblical Jewish history, Modern Jewish history, the real and true relationship between the Jewish People and how it serves as an anchor for the faith which has held a tenuous grip by a thin strand clinging and living to remember Jerusalem. How for generation upon generation every year we would say and more often than not believe we would some day return. A course in democratic governments and governance which would stress the freedoms equally with the responsibilities would be included in the curriculum. Finally, they should be granted full citizenship after the completion of these requirements which would easily take a minimum of five years and more expectantly a full decade. In the meantime, if one preferred they could declare themselves alien residents and be granted a Visa with that intent. Such a classification would not be transferable. The most important action of all would be Israel taking control of the education system. Where the Islamic madrassahs could be taught by qualified Muslim Israelis who would teach the truth and not the propaganda, the schools run by individual Imams who fervently taught the destruction of the Jewish State would need to face the fate as those who were determined to be arch terror trainers and planners as such an Imam would be a direct threat to the State of Israel.

 

Israel could serve as the center for an Islamic revelation and transformation bringing the messages of peace, tolerance, refinement of the individual and the soul, the Mecca Quran over the more violent and war based Medina Quran. Our brief and straightforward definition and delineation of the driving forces which brought on the revelations and why they might have altered in tone can be found along with numerous links added by our readers along with others all in the comments here at our article Which Quran, Mecca or Medina? The changes would take time as the indoctrination of the Arab society has been so immersive and complete that it will be like deprogramming cult members who wish to leave a harmful environment but are enslaved to their present situation and must be led free of its all-encompassing immersive grasp. The good news is once Israel committed to retaining all the lands which were promised her by the entirety of the League of Nations, many conferences and treaties, and most importantly by International Law, the violence would immediately decrease and over time that trend would continue and the economic situation in the area would bloom and have meteoric growth as would Israel as the vast majority of the lands are basically uninhabited. This would also make Israel more readily defendable and would grant central hub of Israel around Tel Aviv and also to Jerusalem. This would provide a better life for future generations and many of those who were in the majority but were suppressed into submission which is what defines modern Islam, the submission of the human factor and of the humans themselves and that is what transformation and reformation would all be about, but this too is for another day. For the here and now it is best to be prepared for radical changes in the United States and the most active and virulent interference in the rule of law and governance of Israel by European governments, the European Union, the United States State Department and White House, the European union and Israeli NGOs who are largely if not almost entirely funded from abroad if all of their contributions both directly and those indirectly arranged through other NGOs such as the New Israel Fund and overtly-wealthy individuals such as George Soros.

 

Beyond the Cusp

 

Iran Working to Purchase New Front on Israel

 

Iran will be using some amount of their coming new found wealth which with its sales of oil and weapons will be a renewable funding starting with the billions it will receive right up front after the deal passes the Congress either outright or through inability to override Presidential veto. There have been credible reports that Hezballah has been once again actively seeking to convert members of the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades into cells which Iran can control to perform shooting attacks and eventually planting IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices) which Iran will provide either through teaching these cells the methods for building their own or by providing the knowledge along with the necessary parts and leave the rest to the best trained to do the logistical planning. This recruitment drive, for lack of a better term, is being led by an operative of Hezballah known to Israeli intelligence named Qais Obeid, an Israeli-Arab and grandson of former Knesset member Diyab Obeid. These recruitment efforts by Hezballah has been an ongoing threat which of late has been more vigorous thus making it a potential new and more active terrorist front which will require additional intelligence gathering and interventions. In the past these efforts may have had some begrudging assistance from Fatah and Palestinian Authority as allowing Hezballah to become overly influential in Judea and Samaria would erode Palestinian Authority and Mahmoud Abbas’s authority. Meanwhile, this is an inroad which Iran has already set in motion to increase their threat potential against Israel and in their mind another way to place additional pressures against Israel and thus make any attack on their nuclear facilities less likely. Increasing the near threat thus making the more distant threat appear less of a pressing issue may be behind these Iranian efforts.

 

Mahmoud Abbas may be another problem that requires steps to be addressed. Abbas is preparing to make a visit to Tehran, Iran. This visit will definitely have a discussion of recruiting Fatah and potentially buying the entirety of the Palestinian Authority outright. This may be part of the reason that Abbas has distanced and may further distance himself from the being the head of certain elements within the Palestinian Authority structures, as convoluted as that structure may appear. This may be in preparation to allow Iran to have its influence over certain political and terrorist entities while allowing for the majority of the Palestinian Authority, including the authority itself, to come outside obvious Iranian control and thus remain easily supportable by their European and other Western backing and funding while turning over critical terror networks to Iranian influence or even outright control. Iran is almost desperate to open a reliable front against Israel other than Hezballah which already had too much on its plate with Syria, Iraq and even reports of some Hezballah assisting the Houthis in Yemen and now a new front with Islamic State appearing to organize and gain influence of Sunnis in Lebanon who have reached the point of desperation and a represent low hanging fruit just waiting for some supporting influence to provide them with the leadership assistance and weaponization to present a new threat to Hezballah and gain their own front against Israel.

 

This partially represents the new threats approaching from the distant horizons to place themselves right on Israel’s front porch, so to speak. On one side there are the traditional Sunni influences such as Saudi Arabia and the ‘nice’ Palestinians which wear ties and speak peace in English while unsheathing daggers and potentially IEDs when dressed in more traditional garb with their keffiyeh shaped in the form of Israel, a tradition popularized by the late Yasser Arafat which he claimed showed his intention to replace Israel, not share any of the lands as he refused to recognize any Jewish presence as long as he was able to defy the Israeli presence as the State of the Jews. There is likely to be additional pressures felt from both Gaza and Judea and Samaria as the bidding wars increase. We have outlined the potential threats coming from Iran in Judea and Samaria and the on again and currently off again relationship between Iran and Hamas can become active at any time and present an active terror front against Israel. There are likely other influences in Gaza with potential for Iranian meddling such as Islamic Jihad or simply any terror cells who desire greater prominence which a fresh influx of money and arms, especially rocket parts, with which to attack Israel would present an additional threat. Where some would point to such a threat being of minimal importance to which the reply that comes to mind is to inquire at what number of rockets striking Israeli cities and potentially only prevented through interception at the minimal price of near twenty-thousand-dollars per interceptor fired. With rockets being priced to manufacture between fifty dollars to as much as at the most a thousand dollars, how many of the midrange priced rockets at say two-hundred-dollars or less does an Iranian backed group need to fire before they become more than a menace, and this does not count those that strike and murder Israeli families, at what point are rockets over the border sufficient to trigger a greater response? How many rockets fired at your neighborhood would be considered a minor menace, an inconvenience, something that you would be capable of simply living with the minor inconvenience of hearing a siren in the middle of the night or while your children are walking to or from school, a favorite time for rocket launches into Israel by Hamas and Islamic Jihad, how many would you accept. Well, that should be the same answer for Israeli communities as Jewish and Israeli lives matter! All lives matter providing they are also living by that credo.

 

Live and let live is a nice theory to live by despite the murderous intentions of your neighbors, but after three-thousand-years of neighbors intent on murdering every single Israeli and Jew which included conquest at any price, we have seen it throughout time and will not go quietly, that can be a promise we will keep. We have had our survival instincts molded and hardened by the Egyptian Pharaohs, the Hittites, the Babylonians, the Assyrians, the Persians, the Greeks, the Romans, the Byzantines, the Islamic invasions, the Crusaders, the near constant wars where the Jews were a primary target by both sides between of Islam against the Crusaders. These were followed by the various European and Islamic states throughout the Dark and Middle Ages, expulsions from Russian pogrom, Spanish Inquisition, Purification of France, the Religious Purges by both Catholic and Protestant Monarchs, the Protestant Reformation in the German City-States, Pogroms throughout all of Europe; the Jizyah of the Arab, Muslim and Ottoman City-States and Empires. Then was a defining slaughter known as the Shoah by the Nazis, and then pogroms and disenfranchising by the various Muslims States after the formation of Israel. Coming into the present we are targeted by Iran, Hamas, Islamic Jihad, the PLO, Fatah, and the too numerous to name other assaults with the intent on conquest, wholesale conversions, eradication of Judaism and other threats be they from ancient history or about to spring at our throats tomorrow. Enough is enough and Never Again will Jews take such threats without a fight as we have no weapon against the most insidious of all threats, assimilation and the loss of Jewish identity which accompanies such. I realize that was a long sentence but we Jews have a very long history and very little of the time were we left in peace. The present is not proving to be much of an improvement. Name me one nation which has been historically and is presently under direct threat of being eradicated once again. Another exile may very well turn Judaism into a small cultish religion practiced by small pockets of religious Jews who will all still remain under threats for their annihilation through many different means and only surviving by the will of Hashem. We will not go into that dark night without a fight, a great effort to do whatever it takes to remain in the light of assurance through strength of our own lands, of Israel.

 

The power struggle in our, what almost needs to be defined as internal threats, is that of those Arabs which desire the destruction of Israel. They exist in the obvious camps in Gaza including Hamas and Islamic Jihad as well as smaller groups sworn allegiance to al-Qaeda, Islamic State, al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades and assuredly more; in Judea and Samaria including PLO, Fatah, al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades, al-Qaeda, Islamic State, Hezballah and other smaller groups some only comprised of a single or couple of cells; the threats from across the border from the numerous forces in Syria from Bashir al-Assad to al-Qaeda groups, Islamic State (they have become a larger than normal terrorist run state centrally located to keep their fingers in a large number of pies), Muslim Brotherhood, Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC and an actual number of troops which are an elite corps from within the Iranian religious and fanatical organized army which is as large and well-funded as their regular army), Hezballah in Lebanon and Syria, Islamic State and Muslim Brotherhood within the Sinai Peninsula, and cells which hold Israeli identification cards and many of which who vote and run candidates for seats in the Israeli Parliament, the Knesset. Needless to say, Israel is kept busy and that is before the overt external threats being fomented on our borders with their monies or fanaticisms such as Islamic State (in addition to the terror threat they pose), and Iran with their now fully blessed and open for business arms programs and their under the radar parallel nuclear research and arms production sites which very likely include nuclear warhead development and production along with the rockets to place them upon. We can assume that after Mahmoud Abbas completes his precedent setting Tehran visit which will very likely include the agreement, signed or simply a non-gentleman’s agreement made with a deferential bow and handshake to give over to Iran control over part or an entire substructure of the al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigades or other groups controlled by Abbas himself or by other terror masters within the political tangled web conceived in deceit with its main purpose being deception and allowing for setting up a high degree of believable deniable plausibility for any and every person in a leadership position. The entire apparatus which makes up the Palestinian Authority even currently includes Hamas and Islamic Jihad while working against them in the favor of PLO, al-Aqsa Martyrs and other cells utilized for attacks which must never be traced back to any political entity thus these groups’ names are kept secret until it is required to permit the leadership of the various disparate terror entities and political entities, forever are they attached through finances, all a jumbled mass of confusion. With Abbas having resigned as the head of the PLO planning board or some such title from amongst his numerous leadership positions granting it for the interim to Saab Erekat, actually Saab Erekat has replaced Mahmoud Abbas as Chair of the Secretary-General of PLO placing him in direct line to assume leadership of the entirety of the Palestinian Authority once Mahmoud Abbas steps down and retires from the scene.

 

Months after stepping down from all, or nearly all, of the leadership positions currently held by Abbas, he will then return becoming something even Yasser Arafat never achieved, becoming the Elder Statesman for the Palestinian Authority and in such position he will make himself available to speak to any ruling body the world over including even more frequent trips to the White House and potentially demanding and receiving the coveted position of addressing a joint session of the United States Congress within a week of two of any address so given by any Israeli official, especially any Prime Minister and particularly the current Prime Minister, Benyamin Netanyahu. We would be expecting to see Mahmoud Abbas giving bi-monthly addresses to the General Assembly of the United Nations, the United Nations Human Rights Council (HRC), and any other international organization especially those tasked with determining War Crimes and Crimes Against Humanity all as part of a carefully planned and scripted series of addresses culminating each year with his address at the opening ceremonies of the United Nations General Assembly where he will open the idea for a new provision to be enacted by that body denouncing Israeli existence and fortifying the Palestinian position of claiming all the lands and having domain over all of the land as the Arab struggle has been and always will be the eradication of Israel and a wiping of the Jews from the Middle East and then the rest of the world. This has been the root of the vicious and vengeful hatreds which only allow for the complete destruction of Israel and the figuratively making Jerusalem the Capital City of the coming Caliphate instead of the Capital and Holiest of Cities to the Jewish People.

 

Within Israel there has been a political development which warrants some discussions. The recent dust-up caused by the release of a taped interview with Ehud Barak which cast aspersions on a number of political rivals which might likely stand between him and another run at being Prime Minister and the only person to defeat Bibi Netanyahu twice for Prime Minister. While Ehud Barak mostly stated that the reasons behind Israeli strikes on Iranian nuclear sites were not carried out in the entirety of his time as Minister of Defense were attributable largely to Lt. Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi, the then-chief of staff of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF), who claimed the Israeli military he commanded had not trained sufficiently nor was it in any condition to face all of the potential consequences which might befall Israel after such an attack, and also placed a degree of blame on current Defense Minister and then Strategic Affairs Minister Moshe Ya’alon as well as current Minister of National Infrastructure, Energy and Water Resources and then member of the Inner Cabinet of Eight Yuval Steinitz as well as members of the Inner Cabinet Dan Meridor and Bennie Begin making it impossible to gain a five vote majority necessary to take it to the next level. Ehud Barak talked about Netanyahu’s weakness mostly due to not being capable of pressing through his plans for an attack on the known Iranian facilities and potentially other targets related to governance or military command and control.

 

 

Ehud Barak Speaks Out about Israeli failure to execute Iran strike against nuclear sites due to everybody except yours truly, Ehud Barak

 

 

Lt. Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi claimed the IDF not trained sufficiently, Defense Minister and then Strategic Affairs Minister Moshe Ya’alon, and Inner Cabinet of Eight Yuval Steinitz were all named by Ehud Barak as running negative interference preventing attacks on Iranian Nuclear Sites across a three year span from 2010 to 2013.

 

 

These events, including secondary releases from the taped interview being released, have raised suspicions that Ehud Barak believes and has started acting on another run for the golden ring, the Office of Prime Minister. First item on that path is to retake the leadership of the Labor Party, something he is expected to be opposed by Isaac Herzog, Shelly Yachimovich and potentially former Commander of the IDF and retired Lt. Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi who is the most feared challenge facing a Ehud Barak triumphant return to politics. Should Ehud Barak actually try to make a comeback we can bet that he will use the inaction against Iran and his hawkish views and decisiveness which he will claim was a certainty in his mind despite what those around him felt. There will be little mention on Judea and Samaria plans which, if memory serves me correctly, Barak is in agreement with Isaac Herzog and Tzipi Livni that Israel would be best served by the formation of an Arab state in virtually all of the lands of Judea and Samaria as well as Eastern Jerusalem claiming that such would end the terrorist threats from that area allowing Israel to concentrate all of her resources both military and political to prevent Iran from ever developing and producing nuclear weapons. Ehud Barak’s hopes that surrendering the ancient lands which hold most of the Israeli holiest locations starting with the Temple Mount and the Old City of Jerusalem, Hevron, the Cave of Machpelah, the Tomb of Joseph, the Tomb of Rachel, near countless Synagogues, Shechem, the City of David and many others as this is just to name a few. Further, relenting control and giving such to the Arab dominion will lead to the desecration of everything Jewish which means that Israelis will be required to sneak into these places under the cover of darkness and repair and restore the tombs and other places. With some being almost totally destroyed or restructured such as placing minarets at the four corners of a Synagogue and repurposing it as a Mosque, permanently destroying any Jewish character that building may have held making it Jewish, these building could only be reclaimed by taking a meaningful act of terror traceable to within Judea and Samaria and just annex them once they have been liberated from Islamic occupation.

 

 

Isaac Herzog, Shelly Yachimovich and former Commander of the IDF retired Lt. Gen. Gabi Ashkenazi are the expected Labor Candidates Barak would need to defeat if he is to run against Netanyahu in any upcoming elections.

 

 

Such is not a new action taken by Muslims as they performed such an abomination on the Hagia Sophia Cathedral and it was transformed into the Hagia Sophia Mosque. That would be the fate of many of the Christian and Jewish holy sites and giving them the land will not bring a moment of peace but would embolden them to press even harder as terrorism got them the lands thus far, maybe the rest is almost in sight. That would be their interpretation of Israel gifting them all of Judea and Samaria that they claim as their lands as they do to the rest of Israel. Such a move would also embolden Iran as they would also view such a surrender of lands rightfully Israeli would simply reinforce that the Jewish People had no stomach for a prolonged fight thus simply by opposing them long enough and they would become weak-willed and gift to its adversaries the surrender they demand, to an Islamist such is but an invitation.

 

Third Temple placed on Temple Mount adjacent to the Dome of the Rock in space that is currently open areas leaving more than sufficient room for tourism and worshippers of all faiths to visit and enjoy every religious building. It will; however, leave far less room for youth to play soccer which many might claim is a good thing.

 

 

Even when confronted with the testimony of historic facts many refuse to see the obvious. Such would be far less of a tragedy if only they would not bring our downfall alongside those who surrender that which is rightfully Israeli by every legal code and international law known to mankind. They are flaunting these international laws and agreements simply because the Israeli governance is permitting their perfidy through its cowardice and concerns for what the world thinks. We can tell you what the world thinks, they believe the Jews will cut their own throats if given a sharp enough knife rather than to turn that knife upon their adversaries. That is what they believe and all too many Israelis, especially in high office in the government, military and security services, prove their assessment right day in and day out. This foolish idea that the dragon can be dealt with if we just make this one additional sacrifice, there will always be one more sacrifice demanded of us until we are all dead and buried. When do the Jewish People make their stand, tell me when, please make it soon.
