Outrageous Destruction in Neguhot 0

Dear Friends,

Below is a link to pictures of the destruction today in Neguhot by the IDF
of two homes - the home of Yehudit and Natan Ben David and their 6 children
and the home of the Cohen family with one child.

Link to pictures:

The pictures are presented to you by Women in Green and by Gideon Ehrlich

Among the pictures one can see how, after the destruction, Arab workmen
hired by the army are evacuating the family piano and other belongings from
the ruins.

The scene reminded us of the devastating scenes of the destruction of Gush
Katif.

The families are strong and determined to rebuild their homes. The pictures
show the tent built a few minutes after the destruction, a tent in which
they will live to keep a presence at the site. For donations for a new home
please call Miriam at 052-4295557.

We must point out that the two homes were built within the community
boundaries of the community of Neguhot. Neguhot is a community in the
southern hills of Hevron, a 15 minute drive south of Kiryat Arba. One needs
to drive on a road within the Palestinian Authority to get to Neguhot (a
fact that in itself is a scandal).

Women in Green call upon all national representatives in the government and
Knesset to put a stop to this degeneration and to initiate a wave of
national zionist and Jewish building and expansion in the Land of Israel.
One must stop once and for all the Defense Minister Ehud Barak from
implementing his extreme leftist policies, when he represents a fringe
minority in the government and in the people.

The people of Israel returned to their Biblical homeland in order to build
it and settle it.The pioneering families of Neguhot are imbued with this
spirit and no force will succeed in stopping this.

With love for Israel,

Women in Green

Jihad at Fort Hood - by Robert Spencer 0

Dear Friends,

Major Nidal Malik Hasan, a US army psychiatrist, murdered thirteen people
and wounded twenty-one;
yet most newsreports do not dare to mention the fact that this massacre is
connected to Hasan being a devout Muslim.
It is not “politically correct”.
On Fox news on the other hand they have no qualms discussing this:

Robert Spencer too, in his article below, warns that the time has come to
understand the threat of Islam.

Jihad at Fort Hood -
by Robert Spencer
November 6, 2009, FrontPage

Major Nidal Malik Hasan, a U.S. Army psychiatrist, murdered twelve people
and wounded twenty-one inside Fort Hood in Texas yesterday, while, according
to eyewitnesses, “shouting something in Arabic while he was shooting.”
Investigators are scratching their heads and expressing puzzlement about why
he did it. According to NPR [1], “the motive behind the shootings was not
immediately clear, officials said.” The Washington Post [2] agreed: “The
motive remains unclear, although some sources reported the suspect is
opposed to U.S. involvement in Afghanistan and Iraq and upset about an
imminent deployment.” The Huffington Post spun faster, asserting that “there
is no concrete reporting as to whether Nidal Malik Hasan was in fact a
Muslim or an Arab.”

Yet there was, and what’s more, Major Hasan’s motive was perfectly clear -
but it was one that the forces of political correctness and the Islamic
advocacy groups in the United States have been working for years to obscure.
So it is that now that another major jihad terror attack has taken place on
American soil, authorities and the mainstream media are at a loss to explain
why it happened - and the abundant evidence that it was a jihad attack is
ignored.

Nidal Malik Hasan was born in Virginia but didn’t think of himself as an
American: on a form he filled out at the Muslim Community Center in Silver
Spring, Maryland, he gave his nationality not as “American” but as
“Palestinian.” A mosque official found that curious, saying: “I don’t know
why he listed Palestinian. He was not born in Palestine.”

Center. He is a graduate of Virginia Tech and has a doctorate in psychiatry
from the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences. While there,
NPR reports, Hasan was “put on probation early in his postgraduate work” and
was “disciplined for proselytizing about his Muslim faith with patients and
colleagues.”

He was a staff psychiatrist at Walter Reed Army Medical Center for six years
before transferring to Fort Hood earlier this year. While at Walter Reed, he
was a “very devout” member of and daily visitor to the Muslim Community
Center in Silver Spring. Faizul Khan, a former imam at the Center, expressed
puzzlement over Hasan’s murders: “To know something like this happened, I
don’t know what got into his mind. There was nothing extremist in his
questions. He never showed any frustration..He never showed any remorse or
wish for vengeance on anybody.”

So he identified himself as Palestinian and was a devout Muslim - so what?
These things, of course, have no significance if one assumes that Islam is a
Religion of Peace and that when a devout Muslim reads the Koran’s many
injunctions to wage war against unbelievers, he knows that they have no
force or applicability for today’s world. Unfortunately, all too many
Muslims around the world demonstrate in both their words and their deeds
that they take such injunctions quite seriously. And Nidal Hasan gave some
indications that he may have been among them.

On May 20, 2009, a man giving his name as “NidalHasan” posted this defense
of suicide bombing [3] (all spelling and grammar as it is in the original):

There was a grenade thrown amongs a group of American soldiers. One of the
soldiers, feeling that it was to late for everyone to flee jumped on the
grave with the intention of saving his comrades. Indeed he saved them. He
inentionally took his life (suicide) for a noble cause i.e. saving the lives
of his soldier. To say that this soldier committed suicide is inappropriate.
Its more appropriate to say he is a brave hero that sacrificed his life for
a more noble cause. Scholars have paralled this to suicide bombers whose
intention, by sacrificing their lives, is to help save Muslims by killing
enemy soldiers. If one suicide bomber can kill 100 enemy soldiers because
they were caught off guard that would be considered a strategic victory.
Their intention is not to die because of some despair. The same can be said
for the Kamikazees in Japan. They died (via crashing their planes into
ships) to kill the enemies for the homeland. You can call them crazy i you
want but their act was not one of suicide that is despised by Islam. So the
scholars main point is that “IT SEEMS AS THOUGH YOUR INTENTION IS THE MAIN
ISSUE” and Allah (SWT) knows best.

Of course, it may not be the same Nidal Hasan. But there is more. One of his
former colleagues, Col. Terry Lee, recalled Hasan saying statements to the
effect of “Muslims have the right to rise up against the U.S. military”;
“Muslims have a right to stand up against the aggressors”; and even speaking
favorably about people who “strap bombs on themselves and go into Times
Square.”

Maybe he just snapped, perhaps under the pressure of his imminent deployment
to Iraq. But it’s noteworthy that if he did, he snapped in exactly the same
way that several other Muslims in the U.S. military have snapped in the
past. In April 2005, a Muslim serving in the U.S. Army, Hasan Akbar, was
convicted of murder for killing two American soldiers and wounding fourteen
in a grenade attack in Kuwait. AP reported: “Prosecutors say Akbar told
investigators he launched the attack because he was concerned U.S. troops
would kill fellow Muslims in Iraq. They said he coolly carried out the
attack to achieve ‘maximum carnage’ on his comrades in the 101st Airborne
Division.”

And Hasan’s murderous rampage resembles one that five Muslim men in New
Jersey tried to carry out at Fort Dix in New Jersey in 2007, when they
plotted to enter the U.S. Army base and murder as many soldiers as they
could.

That was a jihad plot. One of the plotters, Serdar Tatar, told an FBI
informant late in 2006: “I’m gonna do it..It doesn’t matter to me, whether I
get locked up, arrested, or get taken away, it doesn’t matter. Or I die,
doesn’t matter, I’m doing it in the name of Allah.” Another plotter, Mohamad
Shnewer, was caught on tape saying, “They are the ones, we are going to put
bullets in their heads, Allah willing.”

Nidal Hasan’s statements about Muslims rising up against the U.S. military
aren’t too far from that, albeit less graphic. The effect of ignoring or
downplaying the role that Islamic beliefs and assumptions may have played in
his murders only ensures that - once again - nothing will be done to prevent
the eventual advent of the next Nidal Hasan.

“Mamma Rochel” 0

Instructions for unsubscribing can be found in the footer of this message.

————————————————————————–

Under the original Oslo agreements, the Oslo architects meant to give away Rachel’s Tomb to the Arab enemy. What changed the decree was a meeting by Rabbi Chanan Porat and Rabbi Menachem Porush with Yitzhak Rabin. The loud crying by Rabbi Menachem Porush shouting “Mamme Rochel, Mamme Rochel” (”Mother Rachel, Mother Rachel” in Yiddish) and the convincing arguments of Chanan Porat succeeded in keeping Rachel’s Tomb in our hands.

This is one of the many stories that were told to the tens of people who came to Shdema last Friday to hear Rabbi Chanan Porat.

Rabbi Porat spoke about Rachel Imeinu, our mother Rachel, her personality, the incredible power of her crying and of those crying for her. Rachel represents Erets Israel, the longing to the land and our obligation to safeguard it.

Shdema is located some 5 kilometers from Rachel’s Tomb. Rachel’s struggle is not over yet. All of her sons are not back yet to all parts of the Land of Israel. The struggle continues. The struggle for the Land of Israel in general and for Shdema in particular.

This coming FRIDAY, eve of Shabbat Vayera, November 6th, 2009. at 9:00 am in SHDEMA:

PROF ARIEH ZARITZKY of Ben Gurion Univeristy will lecture (in Hebrew) on “Contradictions and Open Questions in the official version of the Rabin assassination”.

Upcoming Activities in the Eretz Israel Cultural Center at Shdema 0

Upcoming Activities in the Eretz Israel Cultural Center at Shdema

First was the idea.

Adv. Elyakim Haetzni was among the first ones to conceive of the return to the heart of Eretz Israel. His activity, together with others, led to the renewal of Jewish settlement throughout Eretz Israel after its liberation in the Six Day War.

A week after the war, Adv. Haetzni already began the journey of return to Gush Etzion, Hebron, and all the patrimony of the fathers of the Jewish people. Last Friday, on the eve of the Shabbat of Bereshit, Adv. Eliakim Haetzni presented at Shdema historical documents and stories that were not told until now, with humor and a very historical viewpoint, that is relevant to this very day.

The fascinating lecture was recorded on video for future generations.

Adv. Haetzni said that the left has been occupied with “words” for the past forty years, while the national public, in contrast, has been engaged with “stone” - with building and settlement. He asked: will the “words” of the left succeed in overcoming the “stone” of the national camp? His answer was clear and unequivocal: the “words” were, and still are, directed against Jewish construction and settlement in the heart of the land, but Adv. Haetzni believes for a certainty that the left will not prevail over the 300,000 Jews on the mountain ridge, and an additional 200,000 Jews in the Jerusalem area - and this is not all.

Adv. Haetzni further stated that the great pride of the renewed settlement in Judea, Samaria, and Gaza is that it sprouted from below, as a popular, grassrooted movement that pulled the governments after it.

A fascinating hour and a half, and it wasn’t enough for us. At the request of the dozens of participants, it was decided to hold an additional lecture by Elyakim Haetzni at Shdema (Part II), on Friday, the eve of the Shabbat of Vayishlah, December 4, 2009.
