LETTER TO GUSH KATIF

Arutz Sheva - Israel National News: "Inside Israel Letter "

The unofficial website of Gush Katif, katif.net, received the following letter from soldiers of the Givati Brigade:

Dear Gush Katif residents,
A week ago we lost six fighters from our unit.
During these difficult hours, we were able to feel how those whom we are protecting show their gratefulness to us - by coming to our base to give out sweets, letters, candies, happy drawings from the children, and saying words of encouragement.
No matter what, we will continue to fulfill the obligation that we are fulfilling now, with happiness, for as long as it takes.
We are confident that our brothers were not killed in vain. This is a war that we will win, and the victory will be even greater if we, all of Israel, unite and give strength one to another.
So we just wanted to tell you and pass on the message through you - to all those who took the time and trouble and resources to volunteer for us - thanks very much from the bottom of our hearts! Yours always,
The Dolev Battalion Family, Telzec Unit of the Givati Brigade

AM YISRAEL CHAI!

UPDATE TO JEW-ISH?

Yesssss. He's OURS!

Judaism is considered to be both a religion and a nation/culture. More than 13 million people are now identified as Jews, with roughly six million living in the United States and five million in Israel.** Jews come in all shapes, sizes and nationalities. For example, there are black Jews from Ethiopia, Chinese Jews from Shanghai and Indian Jews from India. Practices and beliefs among Jews range from those who call themselves Jews but have nothing more to do with the religion or culture to rigidly Orthodox who strictly observe ancient Jewish precepts.
Today, Judaism is comprised of four major movements, Orthodox, Conservative, Reform and Reconstructionist. Reform is by far the largest today, but it has relatively few adherents in Israel where most Jews are either Orthodox (a minority) or do not affiliate with a particular movement. Most Israelis are often described as "secular," but most still observe Jewish holidays (many of which are national holidays in Israel) and are very knowledgeable about their history and culture (which is taught in public school). The Conservative movement is also very strong in the United States, but has yet to make significant inroads in Israel. Reconstructionism is the smallest, and newest movement and has virtually no presence in Israel. The Orthodox movement has grown in recent years in the United States and remains the strongest movement in Israel. The Orthodox, more so than the other movements, are also divided among different sects, such as Satmar and Chabad.
The Jewish movements have different interpretations of the Torah, which lead to different rituals, spiritual practices and beliefs. The diversity of beliefs and practices has led to different definitions of "Who is a Jew." This question is not just philosophical, it has political and legal ramifications. In Israel, questions of Jewishness have implications for immigration, conversion, marriage, divorce and the allocation of government money.
Origins of the Words "Jew" and "Judaism" The original name for the people we now call Jews was Hebrews. The word "Hebrew" (in Hebrew, "Ivri") is first used in the Torah to describe Abraham (Gen. 14:13). The word is apparently derived from the name Eber, one of Abraham's ancestors. Another tradition teaches that the word comes from the word "eyver," which means "the other side," referring to the fact that Abraham came from the other side of the Euphrates, or referring to the fact Abraham was separated from the other nations morally and spiritually.
Another name used for the people is Children of Israel or Israelites, which refers to the fact that the people are descendants of Jacob, who was also called Israel.
The word "Jew" (in Hebrew, "Yehudi") is derived from the name Judah, which was the name of one of Jacob's twelve sons. Judah was the ancestor of one of the tribes of Israel, which was named after him. Likewise, the word Judaism literally means "Judah-ism," that is, the religion of the Yehudim.
Originally, the term Yehudi referred specifically to members of the tribe of Judah, as distinguished from the other tribes of Israel. However, after the death of King Solomon, the nation of Israel was split into two kingdoms: the kingdom of Judah and the kingdom of Israel (I Kings 12; II Chronicles 10). After that time, the word Yehudi could properly be used to describe anyone from the kingdom of Judah, which included the tribes of Judah, Benjamin and Levi, as well as scattered settlements from other tribes. The most obvious biblical example of this usage is in Esther 2:5, where Mordecai is referred to as both a Yehudi and a member of the tribe of Benjamin.
In the 6th century B.C.E., the kingdom of Israel was conquered by Assyria and the ten tribes were exiled from the land (II Kings 17), leaving only the tribes in the kingdom of Judah remaining to carry on Abraham's heritage. These people of the kingdom of Judah were generally known to themselves and to other nations as Yehudim (Jews), and that name continues to be used today.
In common speech, the word "Jew" is used to refer to all of the physical and spiritual descendants of Jacob/Israel, as well as to the patriarchs Abraham and Isaac and their wives, and the word "Judaism" is used to refer to their beliefs. Technically, this usage is inaccurate, just as it is technically inaccurate to use the word "Indian" to refer to the original inhabitants of the Americas. However, this technically inaccurate usage is common both within the Jewish community and outside of it, and is therefore used throughout this site.

I have heard people get extremely upset at being called *Yehudi*. Why then, is JEW any different? In fact, it is worse and its use by our own selves is a sad recognition that we would sell our birthright, diminishing ourselves as no other force on earth can possibly do. The history of this word connotes nothing but heartbreak and horror for us. This historic weight that breaks our back and bends our will is anathema to who we really are. Isn't it time we regain the pride we gave away so willingly to fit into a wondrous world we have built far beyond what our small numbers would suggest? We have, throughout our entire history, done more to lead people to humanity than any other culture under heaven, yet those who have done nothing but steal from us are revered as being somehow superior. Not in this life, or any other, has there been a more capable, more educated, more productive, more intellectually oriented, more beneficient, and yes, conservative in values even when those jews, small j, claim our coattails as if they somehow deserve them after they have betrayed us. As a People, we learned more common sense in the days of the Old Testament than most people have even learned yet. Development of amazing technologies and medical breakthroughs are introduced via Hebrews almost every day of the week, but the world which we serve offers no thanks, no respect, and little, if any, recognition of our talents except to hate us more. And yet it doesn't stop us. G-d put us here for exactly this. The taught now teach. If the world at large will not call us by our rightful and proper name, then we should NOT answer. Period.

Sing a Song of Vengeance

Sing a Song of Vengeance R' Binyamin Zev Kahane hy"d The falsifiers of Judaism, in their effort to prove that Judaism loathes the concept of vengeance, and that we should feel sad when our enemy falls, are fond of bringing the Talmudic quote concerning the drowning of the Egyptians in the Red Sea: “the work of My hands are drowning in the sea, and you want to sing?” It is not only the secular haters of Judaism who quote this verse, but unfortunately, they are joined by so many tortured Moderdox types who cannot bear to accept the stark truth of authentic Jewish values. As usual, these distorters and perverters of authentic Jewish concepts, selectively and very partially quote the Talmud. The selection they bring down really begins with R. Yehoshua ben Levy starting his lecture on Megilat Esther with the verse “As the Lord rejoiced over you (“sas”) to do you good, so the Lord will rejoice over you (“yasis”) to cause you to perish.” (Dvarim 28) And the Talmud asks: Does the Almighty then rejoice over the fall of the wicked? To prove that he does not rejoice, the story of the angels asking to praise God for the drowning of the Egyptians is brought. And this is where the ignoramuses and falsifiers stop. But there is more. The Talmud continues and answers as follows: “Rabbi Elazar said: It is true that He does not rejoice, but he causes others to rejoice. (Megila 10b and Sanhedrin 39b) Ah, what a difference. And a clear answer to the obvious question: If God does not want us to rejoice and praise Him when our enemy falls, why in the world does it say in our parsha: “Then sang Moses and the children of Israel this song unto the Lord"…? (Shmot 14). Of course the Almighty, the totality of Compassion, the Father of all, grieves for His children -- all of them. He does not sing. His angels, who are not of this world, do not sing. But the Jews do. Not only are they allowed to, they are commanded to… It is true, that Hashem grieves. He grieves that those who were made in his image have so perverted and destroyed the greatness of that image. That those who were made in the image of good, were so evil. And so, He grieves for the perversion of His purpose in making the world, for His works have who have so gone astray. And in His grief He does not have pity: He destroys them: he knows that evil and He cannot share the same world, as our rabbis say: “As long as the wicked rule in the world, the Holy One Blessed Be He, so to speak, cannot sit on His throne.” (Talkut Tehilim, Ch 47) And so, because the arrogance of the enemy of the Jewish people, their brazen persecution of the people of God with no fear of God, is the very essence of Hillul Hashem, the Almighty in wrath destroys them and the Children of Israel must sing and glorify god. And thus do the rabbis declare (Shmot Rabba 23) “Then did Moses and the Children of Israel sing: this is what is meant by the verse (Psalms 9): ‘The Lord is known by the judgement He executes’ This speaks of Egypt whom God smote at the Red Sea.” And Shmot Rabba 23 continues: “Then did Moses and Children of Israel sing. This is the meaning of the verse (Psalms 93) ‘Your throne was firm from then.’ Even though you exist from time immemorial your throne was not made firm and You were not made known in the world until your children sang. When You stood at the sea and we sang before You, with that “az” (then) were Your Kingdom and Throne made firm. This is the essence of Judaism. A world made for good and that cannot abide evil. A world that, when the works of God – as Pharaoh declaring: “Who is the Lord”, the Almighty destroys them, no matter how sad He feels and the Jew is ordered to sing the song of the Red Sea each and every day of the year in his morning service! It is an incredible perversion of Judaism by the confused and guilt-ridden Jews, ignoramuses and learned alike, to claim vengeance against our enemy is not something to rejoice in. We can really go on and on bringing Jewish sources, but space is limited, and we hope the lesson is clear. We conclude with the following from Midrash Avkir: “And Israel saw the hand of God”. When the Almighty wished to drown the Egyptians, the Archangel of Egypt (Uza) said: Sovereign of the Universe! You are called just and righteous… why do you wish to drown the Egyptians? At that moment Gabriel rose and took a brick and said: Sovereign of the Universe! These who enslaved your children such a terrible slavery as this, shall you have mercy on them? Immediately, the Almighty drowned them”.

Palestinian Terrorism

Palestinian Terrorism Islamic Jihad destroyed an Israeli APC in Gaza with a missile just days ago. Following their successful attack, the Islamic terrorists held a news conference where they discussed their winning operation. As they talked about how they destroyed an Israel APC, the head of an Israeli soldier was sitting in front of them, displayed for all to see. It was a disgusting and barbaric gesture, but it worked. As if they were in Hollywood, they had selected the most effective prop, a tool which spoke more than their words. The grotesque image of a head of an Israeli soldier did not penetrate our tanks or F-16's, rather it tore through our mental defenses and exploded inside our collective psyche. To win this war we must play by the same rules as our enemy.

Arutz Sheva - Israel National News

Two Arabic-language papers report that a grave containing the remains of Ron Arad has been found. Israel denies. The families of 12 missing Iranian Jews demand that their loved ones not be forgotten.

Two Arabic-language newspapers have now reported that a grave containing the remains of Israel Air Force navigator Ron Arad has been found. Arad was captured when his plane was felled over Lebanon in 1986, and has not been heard from since. On Wednesday, A-Sharq al-Aussat of London reported that the grave had been found in Lebanon, and that a DNA check had proven that Arad was buried there. Hizbullah, according to the report, was said to be awaiting Israel's final confirmation of the findings. Yesterday, a Lebanese newspaper provided a more detailed report. Al-Mustaqbal reported that Hizbullah had transferred to Israel the remains suspected to be those of Ron Arad. The transfer took place via Ernst Erlau, the German mediator involved in Israeli-Lebanese prisoner exchange matters. Israel has denied that any new information has come to light regarding Ron Arad. The second stage of a recent prisoner exchange is set to take place once Hizbullah provides "new, reliable and concrete information" on the fate of the missing navigator. In this second stage, Hizbullah seeks the release of Samir Kuntar, a Lebanese citizen who perpetrated the terrorist attack in Nahariya in 1979 in which Danny Haran, his two children, and a policeman were killed. Hizbullah claims that it has been seeking Arad's grave for the past few months. This can be explained in that Hizbullah leader Nasrallah has put his prestige on the line in guaranteeing the release of Kuntar - and is thus interested in providing "new and concrete" information on Ron Arad. The first stage of the deal was implemented in January, when Hizbullah released Elchanan Tenenbaum and the bodies of three Israeli soldiers, in exchange for more than 400 Arab prisoners held in Israel. The families of 12 missing Iranian Jews have petitioned the Supreme Court to force the inclusion of their cause in the current stage of the prisoner exchange. The families say that information on their loved ones must be provided to Israel before Samir Kuntar is released. The 12 attempted to make their way to Israel from Iran in 1994 and 1997, via Pakistan, but never made it to Pakistan and have not been heard from since. Though the families have asked the Israeli Government many times to take action on their loved ones' behalf, they were told that the efforts needed to be carried out quietly and behind-the-scenes. The families feel that this was just a cover-up for doing nothing at all.

The mystery continues. SEZ NITZANA

WHO HAS HILLARY BEEN TALKING TO?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

UPDATE: From AP, East Valley Tribune

The video is of poor quality, and its time stamp seems to show an 11-hour lapse between when the assailants finish their statement and push Berg down, to when they behead him. That suggests a delay between those two portions of tape posted on the Web site.

The decapitation recalled the kidnapping and videotaped beheading of Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, who like Berg was Jewish. Four Islamic militants have been convicted of kidnapping Pearl in 2002 in Pakistan, but seven suspects - including those who allegedly slit his throat - remain at large. AFP
PARIS, FRANCE, 03-SEP-2003: Israeli air force pilot Ron Arad who was shot down over Lebanon in October 1986. Israeli airman Ron Arad, who went missing over southern Lebanon in 1986, is still alive, a commission of inquiry has concluded, Israeli state television said September 2, 2003. JERUSALEM, Sept 3 (AFP) - Israel is redirecting its search toward Iran for an airman who was shot down over southern Lebanon and has become a folk hero in the Jewish state, television reports said Wednesday. Israeli investigators have asked the United States to question -- or allow them to question -- Iraqi former prisoners of war in the Islamic republic on whether any of them saw Ron Arad, whose jet was downed on October 16, 1986.
HAARETZ May12, 2004
Rumors that Arad had been held and eventually killed in Nabi Sheit have been circulating in Lebanon since the late 1980s. Israel, however, believes that Arad was sold to Iran's Revolutionary Guards by his Lebanese captors while still alive, and Israeli intelligence and defense officials said that another purpose of the recent spate of media reports is to try to remove Iran from the picture. Iran is Hezbollah's patron, but Israel believes that it will not give Hezbollah any information on Arad unless it can plausibly deny any involvement in the affair.

Warning. Graphic Video

If I was to fail my own conscience and not point out that I believe the person on the newest execution video is not who they claim it is, and it be found out later, it would be a travesty. If I'm wrong, I can apologize. Remember the Italian civilian the bastards executed? They refused to show it because the guy was defiant to the end. That is what this guy was like and everything I can find out about him points to it. It might have been his body found decapitated, but if it was him, he would have fought them like crazy. He would not simply have allowed them to do this. The guy in this video was like a rag doll. If it really was Nick Berg and they really did find his body, are sure it was him, then where is it, why haven't his parents been flown to identify him, why is this the first we are hearing of it, when we have heard of every one else either captured or killed, and why hasn't he been shipped home in a casket? The father sounds too rehearsed and not nearly as griefstricken as a parent would who has just found out his son was mutilated by savages. Just as that idiot, Reickhoff, who sounded just like Kerry 30 years ago, all of this past month's *revelations* put together smells too much like a friggin' setup. Hillary Clinton was just over to Iraq lately on a *fact-finding* mission. Wherever she goes, hell goes riding with her. Something stinks here. He was tring to find an alternate saferoute out of Iraq the last his parents heard from him. If he was unemployed, he would not have been with an American Convoy. I don't know if the body they found has been positively identified, but I can darn sure see just by the shape of the head that the Nick in the home photo and the *Nick* in the execution video are not the same person. If the body on the overpass hasn't been positively identified, and I've heard no verification that it was, then Nick could be either going through Jordan or heading for Israel for all we know. If he shows up alive, his dad can feign being as overjoyed as he is griefstricken. *(UPDATE: I hear now that the body they found has arrived at Dover AFB, however the father was refused entry to the base. What is wrong with this picture?) First of all, they guy they were supposed to have executed on film was much smaller in stature. That is fairly obvious. I know what Muslims do to so-called *collaborators* which would be ANY Iraqi who cooperated with the Americans at all. It is possible that this guy was a Shaheed, but he looked drugged to the gills. That could be possible, but it seems more likely that the person had been in confinement and deprived for a very long time. The taped execution could have taken place years ago because digital cams today would record the date and time, not just the time. They have no proof for when this happened. The man's lips moved, but he was not speaking the words that were heard. That would also be in keeping with the old video cameras that did not record sounds, only visuals. Something else I noticed, though the video was obviously much older and had to have undergone several editings before they could make a video clip from it, the person they executed never stood up and never moved his legs through anything that was happening. He was sitting on the floor, his legs bent at the knees. They flipped him over sideways and his legs did not flail nor move, he just fell straight over onto the floor. IF it was Ron Arad and he was being held in an Iranian prison, his legs had been operated on so he could not escape. It would also explain the odd clothing and the starkness of the room he was executed in. This film was not shown on any of the Arab TV stations. I am wondering if the Iranians haven't killed two birds with one stone...or think they have. There has been much open talk of late of an Israeli attack on Iran. Israel has been asking questions and could have gotten answers that literally made any other response impossible for them. All the doubledealing that has been going on from every murderous Muslim group along with every terrorist nurturing nation in the entire world, up to, and including, the savage mutilations of Americans in Iraq, has become normal in this abnormal world. Suddenly thousands of photographs (of which only a portion might be actuals,) find their way into American and English leftwing media which sends the planet into an orgy of pity and elicits extreme decibles of screaming rage at US out of sympathy for lying, sneaking, murdering savages, even as the outrageous act of mutilating American bodies and hanging them from a bridge could not even coax forth a tear because the Americans were just paid mercenaries and probably deserved mutilation; as Pat Tillman's family found out rather remarkably, that their son was utterly stupid for being so patriotic and probably deserved to die because he fell for the G-d and Country routine. Until finally, just this past week, Hezbullah, (Iran's hit squad,) handed over a piece of bone purported to be Ron Arad's. The same day that horrific video was unleashed to the media, via the net, they announced they had found the long-lost grave of Ron Arad...in Lebanon. Yeah, sure. The bone was pronounced a fake today. I compared this video to the one where they actually did murder a Russian Soldier. The two videos were remarkably similar in that the Russian soldier's death was real, and this video looked choreographed to match the torturous nature of the Russian Officer's execution, and time-released at the moment of greatest pressure on Rumsfeld to resign. I think they might well have executed Nick Berg. I just don't believe this VIDEO was the Nick Berg execution. I think he would have fought, and it would not have served their purpose to show a defiant American any more than it served their purpose to show a defiant Italian.

Which one is the REAL Nick Berg?

I do understand the emotion this execution video has evoked, but I have had all day to calm the emotion attached to this. I was on my way to a business meeting when I heard the news. I cancelled out and cried most of the day. I couldn't help the rage, the anger. My best friend was tortured and murdered by these mutants. I know more about Islamic blood rituals than any one ever wanted to know. I've studied them so much I know what they're thinking and that is scarey. If you think the beheadings of men are something, you ought to see or know what they do to women. My friend was Palestinian Christian from East Jerusalem. What they did to her pales in comparison to anything you will ever see on videotape. The up close and personal targeted murders of pregnant women and tiny children is barely scraping the surface. Literally hundreds of thousands of Christians, Jews, Buddhists, and Hindus, and even fellow Muslims who try to move into the 21st century from the 7th century are brutalized beyond belief. Yet we hold America's feet to the flame and expect it not to burn. There is a pandemic of insanity worldwide and it is exactly what George Bush says it is. It is the struggle to the death of good and evil. The longer we refuse to acknowledge this, the less chance we have of survival. The best way to survive is to learn virtually everything you can about the enemy we face and that includes our friendly neighborhood backstabbers who have far more in common with the UN and their own greed and corruption than any of our past presidents either knew or admitted. Beginning with Carter, we became part of them and part of their global socialist movement. We seem never to have wakened from that stupor or the many ways in which our ex-presidents and State Department have plunged us into chaos could not have happened...and our children will/are paying an awful price for our laziness as we waited for someone else to do what needed to be done. No one did. So, this is only one facet of ONE issue out of many that has involved my time and energy, and it has been made very clear to me that silence was much more golden where anyone above me was concerned than the truth. I finally quit. Powell smiles as he twists the knife and people think he is some kind of saint. His smile has become a grimace because eventually people take on the physical attributes of their personality, ala, Hillary Clinton. No amount of cosmetic surgery can help that woman because her soul is black and dead. And she looks it. Everywhere she goes, it is only a matter of a short interval before the horseman rides. One of her secret trips was to South America and suddenly we had Chavez openly declare his allegience to the Communists. The oil spigot was turned off and freedom became that much more expensive. We are a blackmailed nation, and our own representatives do everything they can to cater to our enemies' every whim. Something is way up, people. I smell war, and it is nauseating to think that there is even the slightest possibility we will let our own traitors defeat us. I understand Puff Daddy Powell has been crested. So why couldn't someone have crowned him? Now, what do I care who uses what against us? We either fight...or die.

WHAT ABUSE???

I should be observing a quiet Sabbath today, but the events of the world are at a point now when G-d has called us to join in unison against the evil that is pervading even our air... Sometimes, I'm scared to breathe because I fear their disease is contageous.
But I said it days ago. This *abuse* scandal is most definitely a Clinton hit into far left field. And it will backfire into their smirking faces and shrill catcalls because it seems to me that the divide betweed good and evil all over the world has taken on a physical form that we can no longer dismiss.
Jim Quinn and Michael Savage call Islam a mental illness. It isn't. It is genetic and its basis is in being so inbred that their entire evolution just stopped somewhere in the 14th century. Since then, they have been regressing to the most rabid kind of primal bestiality that even the evil of Hitler cannot compare to.
I read somewhere that Johnny "Mike" Spann's father was outraged by what our troops have supposedly done in that Iraqi prison. Has he forgotten that his own son was attacked by a mob of Islamist prisoners, beaten to death, his body full of bites as though animals had been tearing at his flesh?
Blood sends them into an orgiastic frenzy and anyone who has ever seen it or studied it has to steel their minds to fully comprehend the pure insanity and evil of them all because it isn't abnormal for them. It is RITUAL! I see no innocents any more amongst them. None of their words ring true or sincere.
I am not even sure if they have any idea of what love is but their NEEDS are dark and sinister. Many of the ritual mutilation murders heretofore blamed on satanic cults have been perpetrated by Muslim sects whose religion demands the blood of infidels. If for any reason, Christians or Hebrews cannot at once be captured and the need overwhelms them, they are not adverse to the barbaric murder and mutilation of their own people as is quite plain below.
Islam is a genetic mutation that cannot be overcome with a willingness on anybody's part to try and understand because it is impossible.They step nowhere on this earth that they do not bring with them chaos and catastrophe, evil and mayhem, bloodletting and depravity during which time their numbers have grown exponentially along with their extreme regression, yet still we are expected to have compassion for the innocent?
ANIMALS do not treat each other that way in the wildest reaches of nature.So I ask you point blank. WHERE are the innocent amongst these soulless creatures?
