Bnei Elim appears to be the last Kahane linked group still operating and doing some good but it's now being undermined by an organized process of subversion by the local Israeli consulates.<BR/><BR/>Where can we turn to, I wish I had an easy answer like that. For the moment we can at least speak out as individuals, for collective action we can turn to whatever group is doing something usefull at the moment, and that will change from day to day and do our best NOT to follow but to lead or at least to steer.<BR/><BR/>Our best and brightest seem gone, their children are undoing the work of the fathers and the only real hope lies in our father in heaven.Daniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-1157997638134914172006-09-11T14:00:00.000-04:002006-09-11T14:00:00.000-04:00I was blown away by your words.

We all know it. The Hitler of our times talks about destroying, wiping Israel off the map. Iran and Syria arm Hezbollah. The entire Arab world and this includes most of Europe sympathizes with anyone who opposes Israel. Jews are being targeted in the UK and France and all over Europe. Aftenposten reports: "There is no<BR/>turning back. It is time to learn a new lesson: We do no longer recognize the state of Israel . . . We must now get<BR/>used to the idea: The state of Israel in its current form is<BR/>history . . . Fear not! The time of trouble shall soon be<BR/>over"<BR/> <BR/> <BR/>Where are the smart, clever, motivated people who have decided this, my people, and my nation are worth dying for? Are the only ones willing to commit their lives the young and not so young brave sons of Israel? Where are our partisans? Our people with a plan and skills to try to affect something, a change, make a statement. Where is our JDL? <BR/> <BR/>By now everyone knows Kahane was right. I'm not asking you to agree with me. But what has Israel gotten for all the attempts to make peace with the Arab neighbor? They got Lebanon, they got Gaza. What did we get, what did our soldiers get, what did all those living in the North get? And the rockets in Ashkelon and Sderot! This is the peace we are working for - peace of the grave?<BR/> <BR/>Where, I ask again are our partisans? People working under the radar in some manner or fashion to benefit our people? A Peace Group would be a great cover for what I'm talking about. Look at nutsy Cindy Sheehan -- she's been all over the world and has met with world leaders because she hates Bush .. <BR/> <BR/>Isn't there something we can do?<BR/> <BR/>Sultan of Knish, I'm not a young woman but I'm a woman who's willing to fight. The world is dividing into camps and this is the mountain I'm dying on. I left my home in the US to go to Gaza and stand with our people. I was there for 13 days, until I was removed. Now, here we are and once again I find myself somehow all at the same time, aggravated, ashamed and motivated. What can I do? Where to start? Who to trust?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-1157910895700894462006-09-10T13:54:00.000-04:002006-09-10T13:54:00.000-04:00I am very interested to know if anyone has any in...I am very interested to know if anyone has any information about the banning of the book "Perfidy" in Israel and the lifting of the ban some 30 years later.

Though many people skirt around the matter, political correctness and tolerance are just words to lure people into conformity.<BR/><BR/>Perhaps the most grotesque example of conformity was in Nazi Germany and the countless soldiers who used the excuse "I was just following orders." Did not a single soldier have the moral conviction and integrity to say no?<BR/><BR/><BR/>Comformity and concensus blot out individual conscience and responsibility. And once you get rid of responsibility for your actions it's like sitting back after a long day at work and having a cold beer.<BR/><BR/><BR/> Ah, but conformity sounds too regimented; people would rather speak of concensus building and group adhesiveness.Keli Atahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089132216830000713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-1157659733475632212006-09-07T16:08:00.000-04:002006-09-07T16:08:00.000-04:00Wonderful article once again.By frontiers do you m...Wonderful article once again.<BR/><BR/>By frontiers do you mean places like the so-called settlements? You can't help but admire people who still wish to remain in their homes, despite the dangers surrounding them on all sides.<BR/><BR/><BR/>Consensus is the buzz word of the politically correct. As long as everyone agrees, conforms, there are no disputes and it's all good. That attitude is so incredibly dangerous. I think everyone to the extent possible, should make an effort to take a stand on something, separate themselves from the pack. Not rebelling for the sake of rebelling but taking a stand for what is right.<BR/><BR/>Another verse (?psalms ?proverbs?) that left an impression on me "The integrity of your ways will be your salvation."Keli Atahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089132216830000713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-1157609075169922812006-09-07T02:04:00.000-04:002006-09-07T02:04:00.000-04:00not so much on zionism as on the ben gurion contro...not so much on zionism as on the ben gurion controlled israel post-altalenaDaniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-1157607450549411412006-09-07T01:37:00.000-04:002006-09-07T01:37:00.000-04:00Why did Ben Hecht turn his back on Zionism?Why did Ben Hecht turn his back on Zionism?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-1157593866867603422006-09-06T21:51:00.000-04:002006-09-06T21:51:00.000-04:00up until not very long ago america had territorial...up until not very long ago america had territorial frontiers, today not counting alaska not anymore... space was a potential frontier but that has been squandered<BR/><BR/>when the frontiers close off though, a nation closes off as well... there has to be a horizon to aim for and a place undiscovered still to journey to as a national imperative, the 'go west young man' of the spirtDaniel Greenfieldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13575285186581875356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11368628.post-1157593656308641902006-09-06T21:47:00.000-04:002006-09-06T21:47:00.000-04:00I think it's a great idea, personally.
