 Liberated Consciousness


"And each man shall take a lamb for his family." (Exodus 12:3).

Behind this seemingly simple directive commanding the Israelites in Egypt to prepare the lamb for the Passover sacrifice hides an earthshaking upheaval. Until the day that the Israelites took the lambs to their homes, it was unthinkable that somebody would actually dare to ritually slaughter Egypt's idol - the lamb. On the day that the Israelites dared defy the Egyptians and follow the Divine directive instead, their collective consciousness was liberated. They had freed themselves of the mental bonds of Egypt and had transformed themselves into servants of the G-d of Israel. At that point, they became worthy of the actual, physical redemption from Egypt.

This week, I attended a moving and encouraging meeting of the Homesh First movement. This small but determined group of Jews understands that the responsibility to change our current reality and lead Israel is on our shoulders. "And where are the people of Israel?" a woman in the audience asked the movement's speaker. She didn't even realize that she and the rest of the people filling the room no less represent people of Israel than anyone else.

"What's the difference what we want? The US decides for us anyway!" declared a Likud Central Committee member this week, immediately after he explained to me that Bush is already a lame duck, that the US is disintegrating and that all of Rice's pressure on Israel this week was actually encouraged by none other than Israel's Foreign Minister, Tzippi Livni.

The first step to redemption is to free our consciousness from captivity. That means understanding that we are just as much part of the Nation of Israel as anyone else and that it is our responsibility to lead. 

Now is the time to take the practical step toward that goal. Support Manhigut Yehudit today.

Shabbat Shalom,

 Michael Fuah

The Golan Heights Peace Plan: By Moshe Feiglin


Adar II, 5768
April, '08

Translated from Moshe Feiglin's article on the NRG website.

Is there a solution for the military crisis plaguing Israel's south? Can Israel successfully deal with the Kassam rockets? Or is Olmert right when he tells us that we just have to get used to it? 

You don't need to be a military expert to come up with a plan to solve the Gaza problem. Israel already has a successful model that works perfectly - at least since the Yom Kippur War. It is the real peace model that has been implemented for years in the Golan Heights.

Have you ever asked yourself where the safest place in Israel is? Where do you not have to worry about Arabs throwing rocks at your car? Where can you walk around at night without fear of arms or drugs smugglers crossing the border? Where don't missiles fly and where don't bombs explode? In short, where is the place that you are safest from both external enemies and from internal Arab terror and crime?

That place is the Golan Heights. Without even trying, possibly even by mistake, Israel enjoys real peace there. Any new peace plan must follow the principles that have brought us true peace in the Golan. There are just five easy steps:

  1. Encourage Arab emigration
  2. Conquest
  3. Israeli sovereignty
  4. Settlement
  5. No peace accords!

Sixty thousand Syrian Arabs who had been scattered throughout villages in the Golan Heights disappeared even before the Golan was liberated. The only ones who stayed were the Druze in the north of the Golan. These villages are the exception that proves the necessity of implementing the first principle.

The second principle, conquest, was fully implemented by Israel in the Golan. No foreign forces remained there. The area is entirely controlled by Israel. 

Israel declared sovereignty over the entire Golan, settled it and most important of all - never signed a peace treaty with Syria. This is how we have prevented the war under the guise of peace that we suffer on our border with Egypt from repeating itself on our border with Syria.

These five steps will bring peace and security to Gaza, Judea and Samaria.

How do we encourage the Arabs in these places to emigrate without the necessity of a major war? University Al-Najach in Shechem answered that question with the results of a poll that it had taken. It turns out that over 60% of the Arabs in Yesha do not need any encouragement to leave. They are disgusted with the rule of the armed thugs that the Oslo Peace Club forced upon them. Their preferred destinations are the Gulf States and Canada.

Many Western states currently suffer from negative demographics - less than two children per family. They are anxious to absorb skilled immigrants such as the Arabs of Yesha who have learned quite a lot from Israel over the past sixty years. The huge current of Moslem immigrants that has engulfed the Western world in the past decades points to the fact that this solution is entirely possible. Israel must make available to the Arabs all the resources necessary to encourage this trend.

Approximately 10% of Israel's entire budget is wasted annually on impossible solutions based on the Oslo eagerness to partition the Land of Israel. This sum constantly grows as mega-costly solutions like the Separation Fence are proven absurd. They are then exchanged for even more grandiose defensive schemes - cutting edge space technology to protect Israel's citizens from flying pipes. The colossal sums of money spent on these unrealistic programs could be spent more effectively. Instead of paying for more white elephants, Israel can give $250,000 to every Arab family that will stake its future far from Israel's borders.

Israel can implement a political plan based on the Golan Heights model. It depends on nothing more than our mentality. All that we have to understand is that this is our land - not theirs. The question is if Israel really wants peace or if the "Peace Process" is just a euphemism for getting rid of the settlements that force Jewish identity on Israel's tiny "elite".

As simple and effective as this plan may be, it will most likely not be adopted. Instead, Israel's current leaders will stubbornly continue down the Oslo path of blood and terror. The sensible, Jewish solutions will all be pushed to the sidelines – because the minority ruling our country today is simply not interested.

Moshe Feiglin Spreads Hope on North American Speaking Tour


As his US/Canada speaking tour draws to an end, Moshe Feiglin reports significant progress on all fronts. In the face of disappointment and despair from Israel's current leadership, more and more Jews are connecting to the hope that Manhigut Yehudit projects. Lectures in places that used to draw tens of people drew hundreds this time. The audiences were warm and receptive - repeatedly interrupting Moshe's speeches with enthusiastic applause and even standing ovations.

For Moshe Feiglin and Shmuel Sackett, the most moving part of the trip was their annual visit to Jonathan Pollard. Moshe and Shmuel reported that as usual, Jonathan was completely and painfully aware of events in Israel and offered some keen insights into the political situation. Manhigut Yehudit continues to act and pray on his behalf!

Several Moslem newspapers in the US and Canada took note of Moshe's speaking tour and wrote about the visiting Israeli leader who endangers the Arab struggle against Israel. Tens of police were called out to secure Moshe's lectures. At the University of Pennsylvania, a plain clothes detective (easily discernable by his long raincoat - just like in the movies!) approached Moshe after his speech and said, "I am not Jewish, but what you just said is extremely logical." 

Moshe Feiglin, Shmuel Sackett and the Manhigut Yehudit message have broken through the cynicism barrier and have brought hope to thousands. Now is the time to do your part!

Pay Gazans to Leave, Right-Wing MK Says  

Pay Gazans to Leave, Right-Wing MK Says
By SHERI SHEFA, Staff Reporter
The Canadian Jewish News
Thursday, 03 April 2008

TORONTO - Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert wants citizens of Sderot and Ashkelon to get used to constant rocket barrages from Gaza, but the problem could be solved by paying Palestinians to leave the territory, a prominent right-wing MK said in Toronto last week.

"Every year Israel spends 10 per cent of their national income on the concept of [the Oslo accords]-on building fences, on destroying Jewish villages, on putting guards at each coffee shop or store. It's crazy," Moshe Feiglin, right, leader of the Manhigut Yehudit (Jewish Leadership) faction of Israel's Likud Party, told some 200 people at Shaarei Tefillah Synagogue, after a March 27 speech sponsored by the Jewish Defense League of Canada.

"We're talking about more than 60,000 people on the payroll. We're talking about $150 billion that Israel spends every 10 years," the former Likud leadership candidate said, noting that a survey done recently at a Palestinian university found that most of the students want to leave Gaza.

"That money is enough to give every Arab family in Yesha [Gaza] $250,000. They want to leave, we have the money. We're spending it anyhow. We have the money to help them, encourage them to have a future somewhere else."

According to Ynetnews, Olmert recently told board members of the Barzilai Medical Center in Ashkelon that living with rocket attacks has been Israel's reality for the past 60 years, and that he has "no way of preventing these things from recurring."

"Basically, he said, 'Get used to it. I have no solutions. Get used to it,'" said Feiglin, who co-founded the group Zo Artzeinu (This is our Land) to protest the Oslo accords in 1993.

"That means that 63 years after the gates of Auschwitz opened, they are supposed to get used to the fact that every once in a while, a Jew is going to get killed because he is a Jew. He has an army, a president, the most modern, strong army in the Middle East, Parliament - why did we do all that? Why did we even establish the State of Israel to begin with? Because we agreed that we would not get used to that."

Feiglin admitted that his Gaza solution would likely not come to pass, and he ventured another approach that he said could improve security in Israel.

He said the best way to remedy the problem in Gaza is to consider the case of the Golan Heights.

"The border of the Golan Heights between Israel and Syria is the quietest border and the safest and most peaceful border," Feiglin said.

He argued that Israel achieved peace on the Syrian border by following five rules: the Syrian Arabs who lived there were evacuated and "encouraged to leave." As well, the land was occupied, it was annexed, Jewish settlements were established, and Israel and Syria never signed a peace treaty.

"And look what we have: a great peace in the Golan."

Feiglin said the biggest obstacles Israel must overcome are within its own borders, adding that from the moment the late Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin shook hands with the late Palestinian Authority president Yassir Arafat, Israel started playing a completely different game, one that gave the advantage to the Arabs.

"Let's assume someone comes to your house and tells you, 'Your house is mine.' And you shake his hand and you tell him, 'You know what, let's compromise. What will people think? Who will they think the house really belongs to?" Feiglin asked.

He said most homeowners would do whatever it takes to kick that person out of their house.

"You would do everything you can so people would understand that you don't accept this claim. The minute you shake his hand, you lost the match," Feiglin said.

He said when Israel pulled out of Gaza in 2005, media from around the world flocked to witness the event.

"There was no one in the world who did not see what the Jews were doing to themselves. The Jews showed the entire world that the land of Israel does not belong to them, but that it belongs to the Arabs. And from now on, we are the bad guys and the good guys are the Arabs."

He said part of the overall solution to Israel's problems is to seek leadership that works in the name of God.

"Israel needs leadership that leads the State of Israel [based] upon Jewish values, leadership that knows where he comes from, knows where he is going."

In last August's primaries, Feiglin who ran for the Likud party leadership with the tagline, "Feiglin, because he has a God," received about 24 per cent of the votes against Likud party leader Benjamin Netanyahu's 73 per cent.

Feiglin said that a few years ago, no one would have believed that he would garner a quarter of the votes against Netanyahu.

"But I'm telling you that, with G-d's help, next primary, I'm going to win."
 

Protest for Halamish Brothers


 

 




Next Thursday, 5 Nissan (April 10) the Halamish brothers, Danny and Itzik, are scheduled to report to the Russian Compound in Jerusalem for imprisonment. The brothers are members of the security team in the settlement of Ma'aleh Rehavam. They were found guilty of doing their duty to protect their community from Arab trespassers and were sentenced to eight months in prison. Manhigut Yehudit, along with many other faith-based organizations will be at the Russian Compound at 9:30 a.m. to prevent their incarceration. Please join us to protest this travesty of justice!
