אֱלֹקי. נְצֹר לְשׁוֹנִי מֵרָע וּשְֹפָתַי מִדַּבֵּר מִרְמָה. וְלִמְקַלְלַי נַפְשִׁי תִדֹּם.


וְנַפְשִׁי כֶּעָפָר לַכֹּל תִּהְיֶה. פְּתַח לִבִּי בְּתוֹרָתֶךָ. וְאַחֲרֵי מִצְוֹתֶיךָ תִּרְדֹּף נַפְשִׁי.


וְכָל הַקָּמִים וְהַחוֹשְׁבִים עָלַי לְרָעָה. מְהֵרָה הָפֵר עֲצָתָם וְקַלְקֵל מַחֲשַׁבְתָּם:


מִי שֶׁבֵּרַךְ אֲבוֹתֵינוּ אַבְרָהָם יִצְחָק וְיַעֲקֹב הוּא יְבָרֵךְ אֶת חַיָּלֵי צְבָא הֲגַנָּה לְיִשְֹרָאֵל, הָעוֹמְדִים עַל מִשְׁמַר אַרְצֵנוּ וְעָרֵי אֱלֹקינוּ מִגְּבוּל הַלְּבָנוֹן וְעַד מִדְבַּר מִצְרַיִם וּמִן הַיָּם הַגָּדוֹל עַד לְבוֹא הָעֲרָבָה בַּיַּבָּשָׁה בָּאֲוִיר וּבַיָּם.


יִתֵּן יְדֹוָד אֶת אוֹיְבֵינוּ הַקָּמִים עָלֵינוּ נִגָּפִים לִפְנֵיהֶם. הַקָּדוֹשׁ בָּרוּךְ הוּא


יִשְׁמֹר וְיַצִּיל אֶת חַיָלֵינוּ מִכָּל צָרָה וְצוּקָה וּמִכָּל נֶגַע וּמַחְלָה,


וְיִשְׁלַח בְּרָכָה וְהַצְלָחָה בְּכָל מַעֲשֵֹה יְדֵיהֶם. יַדְבֵּר שֹוֹנְאֵינוּ תַּחְתֵּיהֶם,


וִיעַטְרֵם בְּכֶתֶר יְשׁוּעָה וּבְעֲטֶרֶת נִצָּחוֹן. וִיקֻיַּם בָּהֶם הַכָּתוּב:


"כִּי יְדֹוָד אֱלֹקיכֶם הַהֹלֵךְ עִמָּכֶם לְהִלָּחֵם לָכֶם עִם אֹיבֵיכֶם לְהוֹשִׁיעַ אֶתְכֶם":


עֲשֵֹה לְמַעַן שְׁמֶךָ. עֲשֵֹה לְמַעַן יְמִינֶךָ. עֲשֵֹה לְמַעַן תּוֹרָתֶךָ.


עֲשֵֹה לְמַעַן קְדֻשָּׁתֶךָ. לְמַעַן יֵחָלְצוּן יְדִידֶיךָ הוֹשִׁיעָה יְמִינְךָ וַעֲנֵנִי:


יִהְיוּ לְרָצוֹן אִמְרֵי פִי וְהֶגְיוֹן לִבִּי לְפָנֶיךָ. יְדֹוָד צוּרִי וְגוֹאֲלִי:


עֹשֶֹה שָׁלוֹם (בעשי"ת הַשָּׁלוֹם) בִּמְרוֹמָיו,


הוּא יַעֲשֶֹה שָׁלוֹם עָלֵינוּ וְעַל כָּל יִשְֹרָאֵל. וְאִמְרוּ אָמֵן:

Two-State Solution, sic, Road to Disaster!

If Donald Trump is elected President of the USA, will he replace John Kerry with Rudy Giuliani?

You'd think that a Reuters photographer would get a better shot of the "Mideast Quartet."

Mideast Quartet warns that Israeli settlements eroding two-state solution
The "Quartet" of Middle East peace mediators said on Friday it was strongly opposed to Israel's ongoing settlement activity, warning that it risked ending the chance of a two-state solution with the Palestinians.
Peace talks, envisaging a Palestinian state in territory Israel captured in a 1967 war, collapsed two years ago after nine months of largely fruitless discussions sponsored by the United States.
The acid political climate between Israelis and Palestinians makes progress unlikely. Both Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian President Mahmoud Abbas showed no signs of a rapprochement during their speeches at the annual U.N. gathering of world leaders.
"The Quartet emphasized its strong opposition to ongoing settlement activity, which is an obstacle to peace, and expressed its grave concern that the acceleration of settlement construction and expansion ... (is) steadily eroding the viability of the two-state solution," the Quartet said in a statement after meeting on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly...
I mention Rudy Giuliani, because of this:
After prepping Trump for debate, Giuliani says US should abandon two-state solution-Jerusalem Post
Newsweek
Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani said on Saturday night that the United States is opposed to the two-state solution to solve the Israeli-Palestinian Arab conflict.
“The United States should reject the whole notion of a two-state solution in Israel, or maybe it should restate it: It should be a two-state solution when the Palestinian Authority demonstrates that it can be a state, and not a homeland for terrorism,” Giuliani said at the Israeli American Council (IAC) conference in Washington and the crowd responded with applause.

But Israel's biggest problem isn't Obama, Kerry, the United Nations or the European Union. It comes from our very own politicians especially with Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, who keeps on repeating the he supports a Palestinian sic State and even worse that they "deserve a state." It doesn't matter what conditions Bibi insists on before "giving" them a state. Nobody takes him seriously. And nobody would enforce these conditions, and we all know that once the genie's out of the bottle, it can't be returned unless it wants to go in. One thing for sure is that the Arab terrorists do not "deserve" a state. There is no history whatsoever of a "palestinian people," sic. This is all an invention made up to prevent the establishment of a Jewish State in our historic Homeland.

With Yom Kippur just days away, it's time for us all to repent and do everything we can for the security and survival of the State of Israel, and that must start with condemning the drive to establish an Arab state in the traditional historic Homeland of the Jewish People!!!

Why I Support Israel

"All anyone needs to know about the Middle-East-conflict is that the Jews want peace and the Arabs do not, because the Arabs hate Jews for religious reasons and they want them dead. Politics, territory - these are just excuses."

"Whenever I make this point, it always seems to annoy the right sort-of-people, so I thought I might as well do it again."

"If you are one of these people, then you will likely be a supporter of the boycott, divestment and sanctions (BDS) campaign that has been so comically ineffective because the world depends on Israeli technology, and that is where the money is, not oranges and avocados."

"If you support BDS, will you boycott the chip in your phone or computer, or is it just Israeli fruit and vegetables that you have a moral problem with?"

"Maybe you are one of the people who feel entitled to shout down Israeli speakers in universities, or to disrupt concerts and sports events that other people have paid money to enjoy. Or perhaps you campaign for the boycott of Israeli academics, to block the free exchange of information and understanding."

"All this is on the same moral level as book-burning, and if you are a part of this movement, you are a part of that."

"Also, the relentless focus solely on Israel that ignores the world's real human-rights-violators tells us that this is an anti-Semitic movement, and if you're a part of it, you are a part of that, too."

"If Israel was a Christian or a Buddhist country, there would not be any BDS campaign, and everyone knows it, just as there isn't any BDS for Tibet, a country invaded and culturally-raped by the Chinese, but then the Chinese are not Jews."

"No BDS for Saudi Arabia treating women like livestock, because the Saudis are not Jews, which is lucky for them, because if they were, they would have to ban themselves from entering their own country. How inconvenient!"

"Crude Islamic Jew-hatred has permeated the Middle-East-conflict from day one, yet its influence is always carefully omitted from all political analysis."

"Any doctor who diagnosed an illness as ineptly and dishonestly would deserve to be struck-off and prosecuted."

"Palestinian leaders have had several chances for a two-state-solution and they have always rejected it because they do not want a two-state-solution, and they do not care about the suffering of their people. They want all Jews out of there, or dead."

"The leader of Hezbollah is on record as saying that he won't be happy until every Jew on earth is dead."

"Once you realize that this is the position then, whatever you think of Israeli security measures, your moral standpoint has to change."

"We know that if the Arabs were to lay down their weapons they could have peace and prosperity for all their people, and the Israelis would not need to build barriers or do anything else the world disapproved of. They could simply get on with what they do best, technological innovation, making life better for all of us, including Arabs."

"On the other hand, we know that if the Israelis were to lay down their weapons, they would be massacred - men, women and children alike."

"The Arabs are even happy to put their own children in the firing-line to attack Jews, they hate them so much. And this hatred comes directly from their religion. It is not politics or territory that causes a mother to celebrate the death of her child. Only religion can do that, and one religion in particular, the one that is insisting on the right of return - to the 7th century."

"Just look at the mess they made in Gaza, which is now a hardcore Islamic hell-hole."

"The Israelis used to be in Gaza, but they gave it up for peace. They uprooted thousands of settlers and gave the land to the Arabs for peace. And what did they get? They got war, of course."

"Gaza immediately became a launching-pad for hundreds of Iranian rockets aimed at Israeli women and children by people hiding behind their own women and children - a double war-crime, ignored by the West, like all Arab war crimes. That is what the Israelis got when they gave up Gaza, and it is what they will get if they're ever stupid enough to give up the West Bank."

"Israel needs to exist because there needs to be a Jewish state. Humanity has proven conclusively over many centuries that it cannot be trusted not to persecute Jews. Jew hatred seems to be written right into our DNA because it just keeps coming back. Any Jew who thinks the Holocaust could never happen again is a fool. There are plenty of people on this earth who would love to see it happen again, and many of them live in the countries around Israel."

"When Arab armies have attacked in the past, they have bragged in advance about committing genocide, and they've still been bragging about it as they were getting their sorry assess deservedly-kicked again-and-again."

"People who want to boycott Israel have no idea what it is like to live on a thin strip of land surrounded [and vastly outnumbered] by people who want to wipe out your entire population, who have repeatedly tried to do so in the past, and failed, and who will continue trying until they succeed, which is likely to happen, roughly, never, while we in the West keep paying for it."

"What would you do if you were the Israeli Prime Minister?
How would you deal with people who want you and your entire population DEAD?"

"I know what I would do, and I would not give a damn about world opinion."

"As for UN (United Nations) resolutions, I would use them to light my cigars. I do not actually smoke cigars, but I would take it up for that reason, I think it is just so important;  because this is a war of crude religious hatred by Muslim-Arabs against Jews, and the Jews have to win every time."

"The Arabs only have to win once for the world to see another Holocaust, and to stand by once again watching it happen. That is why I support Israel, and that's why, if you have an ounce of humanity, you, too, should support Israel, whatever your political persuasion."

Bibi and Obama Do Not Have to Like Each Other

One of the big differences between the Israeli and American forms of government is that an American President is limited to two elected terms, eight years, while an Israeli Prime Minister can hold the office indefinitely, for decades even. Though nobody has been PM for that long. The longest serving David Ben-Gurion, Israel's first Prime Minister, like Netanyahu, did not serve all terms consecutively. Click here for a list.

From what it has been said in the news over the years, and the grimaces caught by cameras, United States President Barack Hussein Obama and Prime Minister Binyamin Bibi Netanyahu have never really gotten along. The glowing smiles that Obama always has plastered on his face when meeting Arabs are never seen when he's meeting with Bibi. His speechwriters always prepare him with friendly, funny quips to trade with Bibi, who is well-known for his quick mind and on target ad libs. But Bibi, who in some ways can be considered even "more American" than Obama, has never found a common language and comfortable demeanor with the present POTUS.

They are not going to have to put up with each other much longer. Soon there will be a new American President, and Obama will be able to spend time with whomever he wants. No doubt, that's the reason for the smiles and jovial mood of last week's meeting between the two.

If Only This was Satire...

EU court moves to keep Hamas, Tamil Tigers off terrorism list
The European Union's top court took a step on Thursday towards confirming the removal of Hamas and the Tamil Tigers from an EU terrorism blacklist, despite protestations from Israel and the Sri Lankan government.
An advocate general at the European Court of Justice, whose advice is usually followed by judges, recommended that they reject an appeal by the Council of EU member states against the lower General Court's decisions in late 2014 to remove both movements from the sanctions list due to flawed procedures.

thetower.org

What is the European Union's definition of "Terrorism?"

Hamas is unabashedly terrorist!

Hamas TV to Israelis:
We "love death more than you love life"

"The price will be high, Sons of Zion...
All of Palestine is ours.
There is nothing here for you but death"
