שתי גדות לירדן Shtay Gadot LaYarden, From Shiloh

Last Sunday we attended a gala Betar reunion in the Jerusalem Theater, and part of the program was singing the old Betar songs. Of course, שתי גדות לירדן Shtay Gadot LaYarden, Both/Two Sides of the Jordan was included.

I always get a kick out of that song. I always wonder if there's anyone besides us whose house faces that very view. Our house faces east. That's why I can take pictures of the sunrise. East of Shiloh is the Jordan Valley, and east of that is the Jordan River. And on the other side of the Jordan River is the British invented Hashemite "Kingdom" of Jordan, which is on the eastern bank of the river.

Yes, on a clear day or night, we can see both sides of the Jordan from our house, including lights at night. Sorry for illustrating this post with a morning photo, which doesn't the eastern mountains.

To make a long story short, both the Tanach
[Jewish Hebrew Bible] and the writings of
the great Rabbis [Mishnah, Talmud, Midrash, etc]
teach dozens of times that Jewish sovereignty
over the Land of Israel depends on
JEWS OBEYING THE COMMANDMENTS OF THE TORAH.

Also, they repeatedly teach, dozens of times,
that Jews lose their claim to the Land
of Israel when they commit sins.

I will not make the effort to prove this
with numerous quotes from Tanach, Mishnah,
Talmud, Midrash, etc, [as I did in the past]
because nobody listens to me anyway.

Suffice to say that when the majority of Jews
in the Land of Israel are NOT Torah-observant,
it is foolish to talk about “both sides of the Jordan”.

PS: this is my peace plan:

Arabs forget about fighting Israel; Arabs leave Israel alone!

“It is often said, because it is true,
that if the Arabs laid down their weapons,
there would be peace; [but] if the Jews
laid down their weapons, they would be
massacred, because the Arabs
(that’s the Muslims Arabs for all you
hair-splitters out there) don’t want peace,
they want the Jews DEAD.”
