Before we begin, let us exclude from our definition those who are merely left ?liberal? and easily recruited to ?bleeding heart causes? by professional mind twisters of the radical left.

The radical left would generally include the Oslo gang; Shimon Peres, Yossi Beilin, Ron Pundak, Uri Savir, Yossi Sarid, et al. Then there are the families who own the three ultra left Hebrew newspapers of Ha?aretz, Yediot Achronot and Ma?ariv. One could throw in the Jerusalem Report and the Van Leer Institute. Other well-known ultra leftists are, of course, Peace Now, Gush Shalom and a lengthy list of peace radical rationalizers like Benvenisti, Ben Ami, Ben Eliezer, Avraham Burg..

I have often wondered, after the spreading ripples of more than 610 murdered Jews (just in the last 2 years) while under the protective umbrella provided by Oslo, if these Leftists ever look inward. Perhaps by being an active participant in a philosophy where terrorists are cast as viable peace partners, those who assisted in making the now dead and maimed vulnerable cannot face themselves honestly.

Frequently, we see articles by or about Ehud Barak where he refuses to take any responsibility for evacuating Lebanon on the run, giving impetus to Arafat?s Al Aksa Oslo War. It would be astonishing indeed to hear Peres or Beilin apologize or reflect on their illegal meetings with Arab terrorists like Yassir Arafat in order to force Oslo on the people of Israel against their will.

Even serial killers sometimes admit to culpability in their rampage of killings. Those of the ultra left not only refuse to look inward, but they press on with their own errors despite the proofs of their mistakes, to be found in ever-expanding graveyards across Israel.

Worse yet, now that their illegal secret negotiations have come into the sunlight, they wish to resurrect the territorial retreats that allowed Arafat?s Arabs such ease in slaughtering Israelis and others, including Americans.

Perhaps they cannot bear to look inward and face the fact that they are co-conspirators who enabled the murders of their fellow Jews. Perhaps they cannot admit their participation with Arab terrorists, for fear that one day they may have to face a new (non-leftist) judiciary who will have them meet the gallows.

Since the signing of the Oslo Accords on September 13, 1993 (9 years ago exactly), more than 1000 Jews have been murdered by Arab terrorists, with tens of thousands more wounded, many maimed for life, and hundreds of children orphaned. The ripple effects are incalculable in terms of wives without husbands, children without mothers or fathers who must be raised on welfare, parents who will never be able to stop grieving. The leftists acted to appease the Arab terror organizations that declared they were the sworn enemies of the Jews and the Jewish State. Will these radical leftists ever admit that they risked the lives of fellow Jews on their experiments? Will they ever understand that they are like pagan priests who sacrificed women, children, and men to gods of stone? These high priests of the radical left chose the Arabs under Arafat and gave him what was called the Palestinian Authority to create a new Arab State. Why does the left worship this icon of its own making? This was the new earthly god whom they, the radical left, trusted, and to whom they offered their sacrifices for peace - beautiful Jewish souls.

What is the explanation for their lack of vision, of conscience, of self-awareness? Is it just extreme arrogance and self-aggrandizement? Or are they like habitual criminals, pedophiles, serial killers who simply cannot recognize what they do, let alone control their predilection to offer sacrifices of their fellow humans

What shall we do with these aberrant, malfunctioning, dangerous people who are in a position of power to inflict such pain and death upon us all?

As we cannot trust the Muslim Arabs, the radical Islamists, so too, we cannot trust the radical left, for they also walk hand-in-hand with the Arab terrorists. I remember hearing Shimon Peres declare to a press conference of the International Jewish Media that ?Jihad can be like a love letter.? I cannot help but feel that we are rapidly approaching the time where, as during the French Revolution, those of the aristocracy who brought misery upon the ordinary people were accorded rough justice via the guillotine.

Jews are generally not disposed to corporal punishment. However, should Israel ever be hit with unconventional catastrophic WMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction) with NBC (Nuclear, Biological or Chemical) warheads or even more vicious attacks by local Arab terrorists accorded arms and comfort by the radical left, normally placid Jews may decide that Nuremburg hanging Justice, where no crime goes unpunished, is the only correct action to take.
