Moshe Feiglin wrote an unusually good article this week.

And for followup there is this article too.

I’ve been getting really annoyed lately at how the media always describes settlers as gun-crazy immigrants from Brooklyn.

Enough already!

Not all gun crazy olim from America become settlers, some even move to Beit Shemesh.

To be honest, when I first read this article I tried to figure out which acquaintance of mine this was (I’m still checking).

Next I looked at the contents of the container he brought with him (an M-16 rifle, sniper rifle, pistol, magazine clips, army equipment, and commando knives) and I wasn’t so impressed. Jameel and I have much more stuff (and not only is our hardware legally acquired, we even get to use it).



Heck, every neighbor of mine (including my Palestinian neighbors - and they get to use it too) have at least this much stuff at home.

Third, what kind of idiot gets caught mailing themselves a pistol? Just buy one from a PA policeman if you really need one.

And finally, something I actually can agree with.

With all those Chareidi riots lately, Beit Shemesh is a dangerous place. I’d want to be heavily armed going in there too.

But you’d think Nefesh b’Nefesh would have pointed out to him what’s allowed to be in your shipping container when you make aliyah: 1 oven, 2 dishwashers (with Rabbi’s letter), 1 TV, 2 anti-tank missiles, 1 washing machine…

Nothing in there at all about M-16 rifles.

NbN really blew this one.


Seriously though, I could go on with this post for a while, and now that this guy is disarmed I don’t need to worry about payback (unlike when I make fun of Leftists who may in turn try to kick me and my community out of our homes in revenge).

Please, leave your comments below. This is too funny to ignore.


By the way, don't forget to sign Nadia Matar's petition. Because if you can't make fun of your government, well then you must as well be living in the USSR Israel.

Rather strange.

A senior army officer (Central Command Chief Yair Naveh) apparently gave his assessment that King Abdullah will be Jordan’s last king. King Abdullah got all upset, and Mofaz has ordered an investigation against this officer and offered a clarification, retraction, and so on.

The Defense Ministry released a statement that "Israel considers Jordan a stable and solid state with a long tradition and a promising future."

Let’s examine a few things here.

First of all, as I recall it, the highest value they tried to cultivate into IDF officers is honesty.

Certainly if Naveh was giving his honest assessment of the situation, I am not sure why he needs to apologize or be investigated. Because he said something everyone already knows but prefers not to talk about?

Does someone really think his statement will destabilize Jordan's dictatorship?

Second, Jordan is a dictatorship, stable or otherwise, its people are not living in a democracy.

Is that what Israel believes in and supports? Stable dictatorships?
I thought that went out of fashion with Saddam.

Third, Abdullah may very well be Jordan’s last King, but whether he is or not is irrelevant.

Abdullah’s heir apparent is half-Palestinian, and somewhere between 66% to 75% (Naveh says 80%) of his kingdom is Palestinian (and growing). It is only a matter of time when the Palestinian majority eventually takes over and we will have yet another Palestinian state as our next door neighbor – whether by democracy, demography, inheritance, or revolution.

So let’s get real.

Bye-bye Abdullah.

I am only going to post links here.
You can come to your own conclusions as to what it means for the future of a Jewish state.

For an alternative analysis: A B

The Gaza PA was forced to admit today that 600 chickens mysteriously died (after initially completely denying the report, which means many, many more actually died), and of course, they still deny it is because of the Avian Flu.

I would suggest that their bioterror attempt at introducing the avian flu into Israel backfired, sort of like when their Kassams come crashing down on their own houses, or when their suicide bombers blowup in work accidents in their labs.

In other news, 60mm mortars where captured by IDF forces in Bethlehem.

While the army claims this is the first time mortars were captured, they are choosing their words carefully so as not to remind us that Bethlehem has been a mortar staging ground against Jerusalem numerous times in the past few years (particularly against Gilo).

In case you aren't following the news, the next wave in the War for Eretz Yisrael has begun.
Just some attacks and events that are taking place in this new wave:

• Multiple mega-terror attempts on the Ashkelon power plant every day. (Which will also shut off their own electricity besides nearly half of Israel!)
  
• Many random stabbings, but in locations that were hardly ever hit before. (I think they are also enlisting secular Israeli club-goers for assistance.)
  
• More attempted suicide bombers. (And many attempts from Bethlehem - which is relatively new, as Bethlehemers used to only shoot mortars and guns.)
  
• Many attempts to breach the Gaza Fence. (Even if it is just to shoot across it.)
  
• Attacks at the Gaza Crossings. (Which the Arab workers and PA officials know about in advance, but Israel still refuses to close it down.)
  
• Molatov Cocktails on the road. (Old news, but increasing.)
  
• And of course there has been the offical PA release of the terrorists formerly locked up in Jericho.

But not to worry, the average Israeli will get scared for a while as the new wave escalates, and as always, he’ll get used to the new levels of violence and consider them normal.

Will you do the same?

Arabs are rioting around the world over a bunch of (truthfull) cartoons.

One of my readers pointed out that this past summer in his neighborhood (I won't name it as to not embarrass them) one of the Arab workers painted a Swastika on a wall!

That's right!

Did the Jews of Efrat that town riot, protest, demand an investigation, kick the Arabs out?

No, of course not.

A few days later the town asked another Arab worker (perhaps even the one that painted it) to paint over it.

Wimps.

Last time I posted how Minister Ezra plans to examine websites for whatever he (liberally) deems as "incitement" (by the right).

And speaking of incitement, I recommend you read where Jameel asks, “Who gains from the mosque graffiti?”

Today, we return to those dark days of the left-wing’s incitement campaign against the right, as 3 right-wing protesters holding signs and handing out flyers were arrested… for so-called “incitement”. Gasp.

Certain people (who we won't name) are terrified of the concept of a Chareidi or Jewish government.

Yet every time the leftwing philosophies take over this country’s leadership, what happens?

Terrorists are given guns, terrorists are let out of jail, and terrorism rises.

And then Jews get kicked out of their homes, the Rule of Law is (blatantly) subjectively applied, and of course, the Freedom of Speech is revoked for political (right-wing) dissidents.

I can’t forget to mention how administrative detentions and recurring house arrests are used against “right-wingers” for months at a time and then suddenly all secret charges are (automatically?) dropped only for the poor victim to be charged again a few days later with (new?) secret charges which of course he still can’t defend against because he doesn't know what he is charged with.

Occasionally, they will put a right-winger in house arrest, tell him to go to court, and then arrest him for breaking his house arrest (I’m not making this up, you simply can’t make this stuff up).

I find the actual consequences of a leftwing government a far more frightening prospect than the mere thought of a Jewish government.

In today's Jpost:

Ezra revealed that police was reviewing Internet sites in attempts to locate incitement against security forces.

(Maybe he should also arrest the Jpost staff writers for their consistently poor grammar.)

It's disturbing to realize that the average Israeli does not really know/care what is going on in our war with Gaza.

Rotter and Arutz-7 are discussing (and showing with pictures) the Kassam rocket that land inside the Ashkelon power plant (just next to the fuel tanks) last week.

Meanwhile the mainstream Israeli media merely describe the attacks as hits near the south of Ashkelon and the Ashkelon Industrial Zone.

So while the Gazans are attempting a mega-terrorist strike, our leftist media (and government) are downplaying to the general public the seriousness of what's actually going on .

Does the average Israeli even realize how many times the Arabs have come close to hitting a fuel tank with their rockets?

I reported on a previous attempt here which was also completely downplayed by the Israeli media.
