I am so sick of hearing about Migron. No, I do not wish any Jew to be thrown out, or even relocated, from his chosen home in Israel. But, these Mamlakhtim (undying State loyalists) can be SO frustrating. It almost makes me want to go up there, and start throwing stuff out of their homes myself, and then grab a sledge hammer from one of the Yassa"mniks (riot police), or whoever is executing the government's evil deeds these days!
Almost...
When are they going to wake finally, and realize that the Israeli government cares more about what the United States government, the United Nations (AKA: United Nothings), and the European Union than a Jew with a kippah on his head?!
IsraelNN.com: Migron Residents: Ball Is In Gov't Court
"We demand that the Prime Minister carry out the agreements and understandings," say residents.
Gil Ronen, March 26, 2012
Residents of Migron held a news conference Monday, one day after the High Court refused to countenance the agreements they had reached with the government about a gradual relocation of their community to a nearby location.
Itai Harel, one of the founders of Migron, showed journalists an aerial photograph taken before the community was established. "In all of the area of Migron, one does not see a single tree or house in the photos," he explained. No one ever thought it was his. The Jordanian government registered it as someone's, but no one saw himself as having been deprived of his property until Peace Now approached them...
Itai, are you and your buddies in Migron THAT naive?
It's as if you all think it's still May 16, 1948, ie. the day after Israeli Independence Day.
Wake up from your day dreams already! The State has changed tremendously since then, and in retrospect, it was never THAT friendly to religious Jews in the first place.
I can still remember the stunned and confused faces of the teenagers thrown out of their homes in Gush Qatif and the rest of Azza. They just couldn't believe , the perfect display of Denial, the first stage in the grieving process (See John Bowlby, Elizabeth Kubler-Ross).
You Mamlakhtim never seem to learn
1. Just bring cake to the IDF soldiers "guarding" your town.
2. Follow orders in your own IDF unit to throw "extremists" (undying Torah loyalists) out of THEIR homes, and all will be well. Apparently, this time, all is not well.
Maybe this will be the kick in the pants they need to wake up. But I seriously doubt it.
I really do not blame you, though. You are simply going to have to accept the consequences of your actions, be that a comparable caravan down the road, or a luxury home in Adam. You may have to camp out for a while. But, don't worry. Spring has arrived, so you are not going to freeze.
Of course, you will also have to accept the consequences of your actions in HaOlam HaBa (The World To Come), when you are asked why you did not fight enough for Eretz Yisrael.
You will be asked why didn't you listen to your own Rabbi Tzvi Yehudah Kook ztz"l, who said to do EVERYTHING in order to delay and to prevent the evacuation of Jewish strongholds?
And, you will be asked why you call puppets and collaborators with the Eruv Rav controlled government "rabbis."
Opposition leader MK Tzipi Livni (Kadima) seems to be more grounded in reality than Migron residents.
(IsraelNN.com)...on Sunday [she] justified the Supreme Court’s decision to reject the compromise agreement reached with the residents of Migron in Binyamin. Her reasoning for justifying the decision is that it would be immoral to move the residents, just to have them move again in the future.
You see?
At least she is willing to state the final intention of the opposite.
Time and time again, you have put governments into power which have turned on you.
We elected Netanyahu, and we never saw the promised repeal of the Oslo Accords.
Together, we elected Sharon, and we ended up with Peres.
We elected Netanyahu again, and ended up with Baraq (ie. Peres's lacky).
And, yes, not so long ago, we elected Shamir, probably the least worst Israeli Prime Minister in history, and we ended up with his attendance at the Madrid Conference, the precursor to Oslo.
What makes you think that a Netanyahu government, which previously gave away Azza, Hevron, and Jericho, won't end up giving away your town from which YOU are known to have thrown out Jews, Jews who's only crime was the passing out invitations to a Hakhnasath Sefer Torah.
Time to stop repeating the same mistakes over again (and again, and again), and expecting different results.
I believe that Albert Einstein is credited with this definition of insanity.
I know there are exceptions, but many, especially those who established Migron, are from the elite Moetzet YESHA mamlachit clans.
ReplyDeleteBatya, you are right, of course.
ReplyDeleteMy understanding is that many (most?) of these residents hold by Rav Tzvi Tau of the Har HaMor Yeshiva.
