We have paid for this land with gold, blood, tears and sweat a million times over. And please G-D, one day soon; the bill will be finally satisfied. <br />Welcome Home, Giladi!<br />Help us build a nation where our children are safe, educated, have room to dream and grow, and learn Torah, and be at peace with the fact they are Jewish and the intended inhabitants of Eretz Yisroel and the owners of the both the birthright and the blessing. <br />No, we are not like the other nations. That is why this place is intended for us. And why we alone are meant to dwell in it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32118121.post-54271244760073712202011-10-23T22:43:35.568+02:002011-10-23T22:43:35.568+02:00David, Although I believe you are correct, just th...David, Although I believe you are correct, just think of what the (Hmm...how do I phrase this?) non-Torah oriented gov't would do with such a thing.<br /><br />...perhaps use it as an excuse to kill those Jews who have killed goyim, even though they may not be given the death penalty (Mehilta, Sefer HaHinuch, Ramba"m).<br /><br />I wouldn't put it past 'em.Esser Agarothhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12853681733864707489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32118121.post-46743818917783224992011-10-23T21:59:53.386+02:002011-10-23T21:59:53.386+02:00I believe that the only correct policy is the deat...I believe that the only correct policy is the death penalty for terrorists convicted of murder. This is just, moral and correct acording to the Torah. We would be free of the kind of extortion displayed in the Shalit case. I agree with those who say this is not a deterrent to terrorists who are willing to die in order to murder innocent civilians. It doesn't matter, these animals are benei mavet and shouldnt be allowed to draw another breath after we capture them.

However, I *did* watch the response of the two Schweischruuder brothers after the Supreme Court denied their case for blocking the release of terrorists. Every one of these surviving kids had his childhood ripped away from him; every one has spent the past 10 years not only grieving, but trying frontically and feebly to make up for the loss of 2 loving and competent parents.<br /><br />I used to work with a woman whose daughter had been murdered by terrorist at the Mifletzet in Jerusalem. Rosa had finally gotten pregnant and everything was going to be ok, and then someone slaughtered her and 2 other people with a knife.<br /><br />This had happenned years before I met Nina, and sometimes in the middle of work she would just break down. Every time there was a terror incident, she was paralyzed with grief all over again. Sometimes this would happen when she happenned to was a paring knife at the sink in our kitchenette. She always used to say that losing someone was always terrible, but that if it was in a traffic accident or from disease, you could still feel that it was part of life. Murder, she said,always felt like something that was not meant to happen, something permanently out of place.Chanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13525977869500274123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32118121.post-48484640345939840452011-10-19T11:51:11.538+02:002011-10-19T11:51:11.538+02:00We should not have (people)animal alive in Israeli...We should not have (people)animal alive in Israeli prison that kill,try to kill or help to kill.The prophet Shmuel know what to do with them ,King Shaul did not.
