The De-Judaization of Israelby Tamar Yonah
Is it the need to be loved, the desire for acceptance, or the personal greed for power and big bank accounts that is steering this country into the depths of the abyss? The leaders in our government are steadily steering Israel off course of being a Jewish State.  How can it be that our Prime Minister:
- Frees convicted terrorists - not to free our soldier who is still kidnapped, but to boost the status and build up of Mahmoud Abbas, a holocaust denier and the head of a terror organization?
- Transfers guns and bullets to the terrorists
- Wants to uproot almost a quarter of a million Jews out of their homes in Judea and Samaria.
- Wants to 'converge' and make Israel's borders smaller and less defensible.
- Allow the immigration into Judea and Samaria of 41 Iraqi arabs claiming to be Palestinian refugees
- Destroys Jewish settlements and outposts (Amona, etc.)
How can it be that our Government Ministers seem to want to castrate the IDF and bring in foreign troops to patrol our borders and keep the peace? Isn't one of the reasons we established the Modern State of Israel, so that we would have our own army, and never ever have to rely on the nations of the world to protect us again? - Avigdor Liberman wants to bring in international forces to secure and stabilize Gaza.
- Chaim Ramon wants to bring in NATO to protect Israel
- Tzippi Livni?s Foreign Ministry wants to install international forces in the south.
Call for Nato Troops (Lieberman with Rice) Whatever happened to using our own military and depending on our own army? Why have we given our security over to nations that have no love or allegiance to Israel?
 Shimon Peres wants to uproot the Jews of Judea and Samaria and turn it over to Arab terrorists. How will he do it when the residents of YESHA are some of the most motivated and idealistic jews in Israel? He knows they will most likely not accept reparations from the Israeli government to do so, just as the families of Gush katif attempted to stay on their land. Peres was quoted as saying in an interview in 1995 when he was the Foreign Minister, 'I have no problem with what will happen in Yesha. We will withdraw the army and then let's see what happens. They (the Jews) will either run away immediately, or the Arabs will massacre some, and then we'll see what happens.'
Is this a representative of the People? A man who seems not to have a problem that families in YESHA get massacred in their communities? ...This is our president today.
And now we have the African Moslem refugees from the Sudan region of Darfur, being absorbed into Israel. 4,000 refugees have been taken in, and they are growing at a rate of 300 more every week, or 1,200 every month. According to someone I visit in the Ashkelon prison, the inmate says that darfur refugees are being brought to the prison, housed, fed, and then shipped out to kibbutzim to be absorbed into Israeli society, eventually to be given Israeli citizenship. (How many more votes does this mean for the Left?) I cannot verify his information, but I do know they were being brought to the prison there, and the guards let me bring in English teaching books for the refugees, as they had a problem communicating because of the language barrier.  My heart goes out to these people who are running from a violent area that some say is a genocide against them, but is there no place on the whole African continent that can absorb them better? A place where they share a similar African culture, or a place where they share the same religion and feel more at home? Why aren't the EU and the rest of the richer Western Nations pumping money into the welfare of these refugees? Why aren't they helping other African entities to absorb these people? Instead, they pump hundreds of millions of dollars into the corrupt Palestinian Authority.
Our leaders can't find money to re-settle our own refugees from Gush Katif. They are still rotting in make shift trailer homes. Our own Holocaust survivors have to march in protest, because they can't even afford their medicines that they need in their old age, and our leaders can't seem to find the funding for them. But we have the means to absorb 300 Sudanese Moslems every week? None of these Sudanese refugees are Jewish, and none of these people want to become Jews.
Why is israel absorbing Moslems, when Egypt and much of the African continent is Moslem? The Moslems hate Israel. They have no interest in Israel remaining a Jewish State. In fact, it would be the opposite case, that they would vote for Israel losing it's status as a Jewish State, and instead see it become a state of its citizens. Is Israel being watered down of its Jewishness? Is the government doing this on purpose? Is this just another brick in the wall to attempt to make way for Israel to join the EU and to de-Judaize Israel so she will fit in with the International Community's Global vision?

A very strange article was written about the Moslems from Darfur, with one of it's Sudanese officials claiming that the refugees are being encouraged already back in the Sudan to come to Israel. It's hard to believe, and I myself find it difficult to absorb. However, I shall provide links to show that perhaps indeed, there is a sinister attempt to de-judaize the character and make up of Israel. See article about: Moslem African Sudanese absorbtion into Israel. See: Non-Jewish Russians absorbtion into Israel. See: Russian tourists to enter Israel now without visas, See: Olmert's bringing in of 'Palestinian Arab refugees' from Iraq, to Israel. The entry of these groups into Israel who are not Jewish and do not have an interest in seeing Israel as a Jewish State, being encouraged to come to Israel, while the Jewish Agency breaks ties with Nefesh B'nefesh because they are bringing too many 'religious' Jews to Israel on aliyah, should raise eyebrows. Additional news headlines imply pressure on the JNF to forfeit Jewish land bought with Jewish money from 'pushkas', (Jewish charity boxes) to the Arab enemy.  Ramon and Liberman want to bring in NATO troops, Olmert wants to bring in Jordanian and Egyptian troops. Are we are witnessing a concentrated erosion of Jewish presence and values in Israel. Are we witnessing a pull to make Israel into a state just like any other state? If indeed this is the case, what would be the motives of our leadership to bring on such a situation? Is this just another brick in the wall to attempt to make way for Israel to join the EU and to de-Judaize Israel so she will fit in with the International Community's Global vision? Please click on these links, it will show you the news articles written on the interest to bring Israel under the EU, and Israel's leadership who are more than willing to do so. For some of our leaders, it would be a dream come true. It all comes down to 'following the money trail' and that leads us to international trade, treaties, deals, free trade areas, casinos, and lots of money to be made if the right people jump to get the monopoly on the right contracts. Guess who was Israel's 'Minister of Trade' before he became Prime Minister? Ehud Olmert. Trade leads us to common trade laws and trade blocks, which leads us to entering into treaties with (perhaps) the EU, which leads to Israel conforming to EU standards.
 So, what IF Israel has to give up her Jewish identity in order to fit in and assimilate? Give up land, feed it to the oil rich Arab kingdoms, kick out and destroy the religious Zionist settler movement, besmirch and demonize the Haredim and all the other Torah observant Jews, and make Israel a secular 'state of her citizens'. Do away with Israel's law of Return for Jews, do away with anything Jewish pertaining to Israel. Relegate it to small pockets that are weak and nostalgic. After all, we all know there is NO room for Jewish values and Jewish identity in the EU, or in a world that despises G-d and His laws.

If G-d Controls Everything In This World....by Tamar Yonah
If G-d Controls Everything In This World.... Do these pictures side by side seen on the front page of the Jerusalem Post speak for themselves?
Jerusalem Post Front page, Friday Aug. 3, 2007 Jerusalem Post  "U.S. Push for Statehood" ... "Mayhem On The Mississippi"
 Do the leaders of America bring disaster upon the innocents of America, as they brings disater upon the innocents of Israel? Are we allowed to put two and two together, or is this audacious and disgusting for us to do such a thing? Note: Rabbi Lazer Brody from www.LazerBrody.net of the LazerBeams Blog mentioned on my Sunday Show that Condoleezza Rice wants to separate the 'West Bank' (her term for Judea & Samaria) from Israel, so perhaps Hashem, G-d, is showing her that he can easily separate the 'West Bank' of the Mississippi from the 'East Bank'. - Not a punishment, but perhaps a lesson to learn? I also had a guest on my show named Bill Koenig. He wrote a book called, Eye to Eye - Facing the Consequences of Dividing Israel, in which he documents measure for measure the acts of the USA's pressure on Israel to give up her G-d given land to terrorists, and the natural disasters and catastrophies that plagued America approximately the same time they pressured Israel. What are your comments? I'm Interested in what you think.

One Can't Know, Till They've Been Thereby Tamar Yonah
Maybe it was because I was standing on the mountain top. Maybe it was the addition of the quiet, with just the wind blowing and a soft flapping of tattered Israeli flags waving in the background that struck me . But the scars were there, and they were not healing. Amona. I went to Amona today.
I don't know. It is so surreal. I SAW it on the news, I SAW it on YouTube, I SAW it in photographs, but it pales in comparison to real life. I wasn't planning on going to Amona today. You see, my daughter was taking a course in Ofra, for her national service that she will be volunteering for the next year or two. I went with one of my other kids and my niece to visit her in Ofra, and get some pizza. Ofra is about a 30 minute drive north of Jerusalem. While we were there, we still had some time before her next class started. I saw Amona up on the neighboring hill, high, high up. I had this hunger to go and see it. You see, I wasn't there when my son and other brave 'orange youth' were, trying to stop the bulldozing down of 9 Jewish houses. They say that Olmert wanted to make his mark, to show that he was strong and tough like Ariel Sharon. So he was uncompromising, and demanded that these Jewish homes, on a bare hill top uninhabited for 2,000 years, until these last few years, be mowed down. The police came by the hundreds, swarming in. They came down in full battle gear with fierce brutality on our kids, adults, and even Members of Knesset. They bashed heads open with clubs, trampling some with their mighty horses. See this video: Amona Doc.
Well, these are the photos that i took while up there to day. The entrance to Amona. A boulder with the Hebrew letters in black. A bus stop is nearby, showing that the main bus comapny Egged recognizes this place and gives service to it. What surprised me is the fact that there was so much life up there. When you first drive in, it is just FILLED with trailer homes and families. That surprised me, as I didn't expect all the 'life' there, after the demolition. These families are true pioneers, and what I love about them, is that they have VISION, they see the future, and they are tough enough to withstand the present. 
Standing up on the top of the mountain of Amona, I showed my kids how important it was that we have this area. A 360 degree periphery of the surrounding area is seen from there. The communtiy of Ofra, the Tel Aviv area, and all of the surrounding Jewish communities. If the arabs sat up here, it could be a launching pad for terrorists to aim rockets down on our homes, schools and roads, where families are traveling. Above Photo: Temporary caravans (trailer homes) of Amona's residents. 
The community of Ofra with hundreds of families, schools, high schools and roads. All targets and within shooting and rocket range. 
Graffiti which states, "I came to this land to build" and "Olmert is following (or continues) Sharon". What is important to notice in this photo above, which is not seen well, unfortunately, is the upper right homes on the neighboring mountain. Those are Arab homes. I thought to myself, the Arabs, --they can build, and live there. But not the Jews. What is important here, is that the Jews had almost all the permits and legal work finished on their homes they built in Amona. They only did not receive the final signature from the defense minister. A signature. ...A lousy signature. These homes (above) were the new (9) homes built by the 'Orange People' - residents of Amona. They had the permits... the electric company came and supplied lines, and other infrastructure was put in. They say that Peace Now made trouble, and now -- there is no more. Who funds Peace Now? Is it from FOREIGN outside groups? If so, is this not infiltration and sabotage into Israel domestic matters by the enemies of the Land of Israel? 
Driving along the road, the destruction is seen. I wasn't prepared for it. Yes, I saw it on the news. Yes, my son described it to me. Yes, I saw it in photos, and on youtube. ...One can't know, till they've been there. I got out of my car. I couldn't help it, I started to curse. I admit it. It just came out... "Da--n Olmert! Da--n, da--n, da--n". I was overtaken by the devastation. And you know what? You reading this piece will probably say, "Seen it before Tamar, what's the big deal?" But I am telling you, a picture, no picture does it justice. You had to be there, see, absorb. It was finally absorbed! 
This happened less than 2 years ago. But the scars are still fresh. What surprised me, is the spirit of these people. After the tragedy, after the beatings, after the destruction, an Israeli flag was perched on a pole onto every mound of where a house stood, now stuck in the wreckage.  What stubbornly in-love people these are. The wind has weathered the flags, some now just a hint of the proud blue and white, sheared from the wind. One after another, home after home. Destruction. The mark of Olmert, one of his legacies. Yet, each mound holds a tattered flag of Israel. These people have the strength, and VISION. 
...and a next generation.
