Hizbullah rearms despite UN presence

"High ranking Israeli political sources fear that the Hizbullah will ignite Israel's Northern border should Israel launch a major offensive in the South, in Gaza…Israel is following with great concern the rearming of the Hizbullah with far-reaching missiles…and the Hizbullah's refortification in South Lebanon, despite UNIFIL observers, weapons and missiles are flowing freely…" The above appeared in a small article buried on page 13 of Yediot Achronot, 7 Adar 1, 5766.

Voice of Judea Commentary:

In Israel, they can lock us up for speaking the obvious truth, but here it is:

There is only one way to protect Israel from Hizbullah rockets in the North and from Hamas Rockets in the South - and that is by conquering the area from which the rockets are launched, pushing back all hostile enemy elements to a point far beyond a security zone. If "settlers" are willing to "settle" these "occupied territories" to help maintain the new buffer zones, this should be encouraged and these areas should  be annexed on to modern day Israel, as they were during Biblical times. The terrorist enemy needs to learn that when they fire rockets onto Israeli towns, they risk losing the area from where they launch the rockets.

Israel will never win the war until she is prepared to fight her enemies without mercy and without hesitation. The Arabs will continue to launch rockets into Israel until Israel pushes the enemy back behind the range of the rockets.

 


Obama worked with terrorists and backed by Jew-hater Farrakhan

Sen. Barack Obama
JERUSALEM - The board of a nonprofit organization on which Sen. Barack Obama served as a paid director alongside a confessed domestic terrorist granted funding to a controversial Arab group…

The co-founder of the Arab group in question, Columbia University professor Rashid Khalidi, also has held a fundraiser for Obama. Khalidi is a harsh critic of Israel, has made statements supportive of Palestinian terror and reportedly has worked on behalf of the Palestine Liberation Organization while it was involved in anti-Western terrorism and was labeled by the State Department as a terror group.

In 2001, the Woods Fund, a Chicago-based nonprofit that describes itself as a group helping the disadvantaged, provided a $40,000 grant to the Arab American Action Network, or AAAN, for which Khalidi's wife, Mona, serves as president. The Fund provided a second grant to the AAAN for $35,000 in 2002.

Obama was a director of the Woods Fund board from 1999 to Dec. 11, 2002, according to the Fund's website. According to tax filings, Obama received compensation of $6,000 per year for his service in 1999 and 2000.

Obama served on the Wood's Fund board alongside William C. Ayers, a member of the Weathermen terrorist group which sought to overthrow of the U.S. government and took responsibility for bombing the U.S. Capitol in 1971.

Ayers, who still serves on the Woods Fund board, contributed $200 to Obama's senatorial campaign fund and has served on panels with Obama at numerous public speaking engagements. Ayers admitted to involvement in the bombings of U.S. governmental buildings in the 1970s. He is a professor at the University of Illinois at Chicago.

The $40,000 grant from Obama's Woods Fund to the AAAN constituted about a fifth of the Arab group's reported grants for 2001, according to tax filings obtained by WND. The $35,000 Woods Fund grant in 2002 also constituted about one-fifth of AAAN's reported grants for that year.

Louis Farrakhan praised Barack Obama.

"We are witnessing the phenomenal rise of a man of color in a country that has persecuted us because of our color," the leader of the Nation of Islam, who many accuse of being anti-Semitic, said Monday at a rally in Chicago.
A campaign spokesperson for Obama responded by reiterating the Democratic presidential hopeful's objections to Farrakhan's past statements and noting that Obama had not solicited his support.

Obama, a U.S. senator from Illinois, had distanced himself from Farrakhan following revelations that he had been honored by an organization affiliated with Obama's church.

"This young man is the hope of the entire world that America will change and be made better," Farrakhan said at the rally.

The presidential campaign for the U.S. senator from Illinois also reacted to a Newsweek article this week that cited an anonymous source quoting Ann Lewis, a top adviser to Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton (D-N.Y.), as telling a teleconference of Jewish leaders last month that Zbigniew Brzezinski was Obama's chief foreign policy adviser.

Brzezinski, President Jimmy Carter's national security adviser, has angered pro-Israel advocates by claiming that U.S. policy is excessively weighted in favor of the Jewish state. He is not an Obama adviser but has endorsed Obama.

Voice of Judea Commentary:

Tell me who your friends are and I can learn an awful lot about you. However, the issue is not only about who Obama really is, or what his agenda is concerning Jews and Israel. The issue is not even about his chances of becoming the next President of the United States. We will see soon enough, whether these dark clouds will burst over our collective Jewish horizon. Let us say that the polls are all wrong, and that Obama does not have a chance. Let us say that he is not as viciously anti-Israel and pro-"Palestinian" as he certainly appears to be. Let us venture further and ignore the positions of his friends and political allies. Let us also say that the Obama threat dies as quickly as the star was born, no doubt, Obama the concept shall return again soon, regardless.

Judging from the cult-style infatuation and worshipping of this empty vassal, Obama the concept, if not Obama the villain is here with us for a while.
The ability of a potential Jew-hating tyrant to achieve such magnificent popularity and greatness overnight should be horrifically frightening to any Jew still residing in America. The fact is that the average American jumping on his bandwagon could care less if Obama was educated as a Muslim in an extremist Muslim elementary school, that he supported groups riddled with terrorists and terrorist sympathizers, that he is so closely aligned and supported by the most virulent and vicious Jew haters alive today. If this is not a warning sign for Jews living in America to come home to Israel now, then I don't know what is. Indeed, there are some ominous looking dark clouds hovering over America, and Obama is not the only cloud I am referring to.

JEWS WORLDWIDE EXTEND AID TO SDEROT

The Israeli media has highlighted the recent phenomena of grassroot Jewish groups who are mobilizing to help Sderot, in place of the government, which is perceived by most to have abandon Sderot. Thousands of rockets have been fired into Sderot from nearby Gaza, almost daily. There is not a week that passes without hearing of more Jews wounded or worse in the rocket attacks on Sderot.

Last Friday, thousands of Israelis converged on Sderot shops, driving in convoys from Northern and Central Israel to aid the battered community and to show solidarity with the struggling businesses there.

On Purim (March 21) thousands more will be joining "BAhavat Yisrael" (BAhavat Yisrael is an Israeli charity organization) to distribute thousands of Purim food packages, and to march shoulder-to-shoulder with the brave residents in Sderot.
To join the Purim Convoy To Sderot, or to help sponsor the event and "Mishloach Manot" food packages, please send an email to PurimInSderot@yahoo.com


FOUR LEGGED DEFENDERS OF ISRAEL

The Israeli Canine Defense Academy and Yeshiva is working round-the-clock to supply service patrol dogs and guard dogs to vulnerable Jewish towns throughout Yesha and in other vulnerable parts of Israel.

This unique program oversees breeding and training of security service dogs in Tapuach Israel, and offers the dogs, and courses to dog handlers and security personnel. More than 200 guard dogs have been placed. 12 dogs were placed on hilltops and "settlements" in Judea and Samaria since the beginning of the month. Every day, more and more towns are requesting dogs to help them secure their homes and help with the detection of suspicious terrorist movement near their towns. The volunteer canine and medic response team dispatched by the Canine Academy of Israel has already helped the IDF track down terrorists in four separate terrorist incidents and has already saved countless Jewish lives in Israel.

The group is appealing to Jews worldwide to join this one-of-a-kind Canine Defense Academy and Yeshiva by coming to Israel to volunteer and study at the Academy/Yeshiva or by helping to sponsor the breeding and training of more "four legged defenders of Israel".
It can cost as much as 3600 dollars to train a basic patrol dog and handler or 10000 for a fully trained patrol dog or bomb sniffing dog.
