'We won't forget and we won't forgive'

Yes, there is no reason to forgive those who promoted and facilitated Disengagement when thousands of law-abiding Israeli citizens were evicted from their homes for one reason and one reason only.

They are Jews.

Entire towns and villages were destroyed, because they were Jewish towns and Jewish villages.

One of those exiled from his home is a Knesset Member, Tzvi Hendel. This is what he said in the special Knesset session about the ongoing plight of the 9,000 expellees from Gush Katif and the Shomron:

"I am sometimes asked whether a bumper sticker sported on many cars, which reads, 'We won't forget and we won't forgive,' is not too strong and mean-hearted. I explain that in Judaism, forgiveness has rules. We are called upon to ask forgiveness every year on Yom Kippur, and we are forgiven only if certain conditions are fulfilled. For one thing, the person who sinned must ask forgiveness - and this has not been done in this case. Secondly, the one who sinned must admit his error and express regret, and this was not done either. Thirdly, he must commit himself not to do it again, and neither has this been done! Therefore, under these circumstances, there is no place for forgiveness regarding the expulsion." For entire article, click here.
