In the recent days, Georgians detonated IEDs near Russian troops in Tshinvali and on the road, and shot a border policeman in Abkhazia.
The Georgians take a big gamble: the Russian might flee the terror, or they might stay and fight it.
Haifa court acquitted three Jews who distributed leaflets with praise toward heroic actions of Israeli soldier Natan Zadah. During the disengagement, he allegedly shot a number of Arabs in a bus, and was lynched by the Arab mob. Other accounts suggest that Natan Zadah was shooting in self-defense.
The Jews were charged with incitement to riot. There is no freedom of speech in Israel, certainly not for Jews.
The Galilee’s Kol Rega radio took Jews for Jesus ad off the air. The ad should not be there in the first place, as proselytizing violates Israeli law.
Jews for Obama, Jews for Jesus…
Egypt, a normal country, blocked Palestinian supporters from entering Gaza illegally with their humanitarian cargo.
Israel, a country less than normal, allows leftists to sail into Gaza.
Jewish Council for Education & Research launched a promo video for Hussein Obama which includes interviews with Israeli defense officials who ostensibly praise Obama. In fact, their words were cut of of context, and none of them endorsed the Hussein.
Jewish liberals support Obama to have an excuse for capitulating to Iran and Palestinians.
Lockheed Martin’s chief of the F-35 aircraft development touts those jets as Israel’s ultimate defense against S-300 anti-aircraft batteries. The stupidity is awful.
The F-35 - S-300 computer simulation were run only with the export version of S-300; Russian native version is much stronger.
Russia is ready to supply Syria and Iran S-400 SAM, which can efficiently target F-35.
Israel might receive the first deliveries of F-35 in 2014, probably later. By that time, Russians would surely develop adequate SAMs.
Efraim Sneh’s Strong Israel party promises religious equality to all strains of Judaism, down to the Reform nihilists, and promises equal marriage opportunities of Jews-by-great-grandfather whom halachic Jews refuse to marry.
Efraim’s father, Israel’s top communist Moshe Sneh was similarly bizarre during his lifetime. His largest surprise came out after his death. In his testament, Moshe Sneh declared atheism nonsense and commanded his son Efraim to recite kaddish funeral prayer annually.
The figure is cited in the petition Jewish leftists and some Palestinians filed against the State of Israel for her failure to evict Jewish pioneers from Migron.
If leftists win the case, normal Jews would have the way open to suing the government over similar inaction against Palestinian squatters on private Jewish land.
NATO chief announced his uncertainty over the capability of ending the Iranian nuclear program militarily. If the bloc cannot take on meager Iran with ramshackle army, who can it fight?
Israel’s average salary is $2,400 a month. Hevrat Hashmal and Mekorot (power and water monopolies) sport the wages 2.5 times the national average; the difference is still larger for their superfluous office personnel. Both companies base their monopolistic position on the British-era legislation.
The touted Israeli agriculture is inefficient as always, with average salary of $1,600.
More than 20,000 Arabs work in Israel legally, and 5-10 times that much - illegally. To do away with terrorism, Israel need not tanks: it is enough to stop hiring terrorists. Without the income from Israel, the West Bank wuld be depopulated in the matter of years.
ICRC representatives deliver food, gifts to terrorist inmates even though Hamas refuses them reciprocal access to Cpl.Shalit.
ICRC visits are historically conditioned on reciprocity. In WWII, Soviet Union and Germany refused the ICRC to visit each other’s POWs.
ICRC can only visit POWs and civilians, but not criminals such as terrorists. Neither Israel, nor any Western country recognizes the Palestinian terrorists as POWs. In legal theory, terrorists are not soldiers and cannot be POWs.
During Holocaust, ICRC silently accepted the German definition of Jews, even Jewish POWs as criminals and did nothing whatsoever for them until the late 1944 when the Swiss began to build an alibi for themselves.
The Council of Settlements announced 50,000 increase in the Jewish population of Judea and Samaria during Olmert’s prime ministership. In 2008 alone, the settlements welcomed 15,000 Jews, four times Israeli average increase.
Due to the leftists’ restrictions, only 400 houses were built this year in the settlements. This figure makes the 15,000 one suspect. Quite possible, the Council beefs up the population increase.
in Hebron, elsewhere in Judea-Samaria as part of beefing up Palestinian police forces. Jews want to delude themselves that Fatah can crack down on Hamas which is posed to take over in February 2009 after Abbas’ presidential term expires.
The IAEA meeting was expected to deal with North Korea, Syria, and Iran - which, the IAEA announced, runs nuclear program. Instead, the Arab members of IAEA pushed a demand to inspect Israeli nuclear facilities.
The incident illustrates the difference between justice and justness. Theoretically, Israel should open her nuclear stocks to IAEA, but practically there is no reason for her do so so.
The government will vote today on transferring a prime Jerusalem real estate property to the KGB state because some tsarist charity bought it in the nineteenth century. Olmert visits Moscow today, and so the vote’s outcome is certain: the government feels it needs a gesture toward Moscow to gain support for some more useless sanctions against Iran.
After Russia agreed to deliver S-300 anti-missile defense to Syria on the board of Russian Navy stationed in the Syrian port of Tartus and blocked sanctions against Iran, Israel really needs to gratify it.
The property transfer opens the way to myriad similar claims: in the nineteenth century, everyone but the Jews owned properties in Jerusalem and Israel.
IDF caught an Arab with two pipe bombs at a roadblock near Schem, one of those which the world pushes us to dismantle.
