Prof. Gil Troy U of McGill

The time to forge coalitions of the righteous against the hypocritically self-righteous has come. We need a sustained, effective, movement against the delegitimization of Israel, understanding that in defeating this Orwellian inversion of all that is good, we will restore the world's moral balance while defending the Jewish state, the Jewish people, and democracy from despots and terrorists.

This is not about bashing Islam.  But

And Islam's responsibility? From WSJ Nov 2009
From Berlin to Baghdad
Will the peoples of Islam tear down their walls as the people of Central and Eastern Europe tore down theirs?

By FOUAD AJAMI

For the peoples of Islam, the question can be squarely put: Will they tear down their walls in the manner in which the people of Central and Eastern Europe tore down theirs? The people of Islam are thus sorely tested. They will have to show their own fidelity to liberty. Strangers with big guns and ample means can ride into their midst with the best of intentions and skills, but it is their own world, their own civilization, that is now in history's scales.

Mr. Ajami, a professor at Johns Hopkins School of Advanced International Studies and a senior fellow at Stanford University's Hoover Institution, is the author of "The Foreigner's Gift" (Free Press, 2007). 

This site is dedicated to facilitating support for Israel in every way

 There are Jewish groups that support Israel. There are Christian groups that support Israel. There is a Jewish Christian group that raises money for humanitarian projects in  Israel. There are Christian groups that work to boycott and delegitimize Israel and now there are Jewish group too that aim to do that. ( see http://israelgreatest.blogspot.com/search?updated-max=2009-11-06T08:04:00-08:00&max-results=7)

We need a Jewish-Christian coalition to right the narrative:

1. Israel is not a perfect country but it is the greatest country in the world percapita. No country contributes more to the advancement of the world than Israel does percapita. ( http://www.berkeleydaily.org/issue/2009-03-19/article/32485?headline=If-You-re-Going-to-Boycott-Israel-Do-it-Properly-)

2. Israel has the most compelling rationale for existence of any country in the world ever: the Bible, history, morality. The land was promised to the Jews by God 4000 years ago (see genesis 12 and 15), Jews have always lived there, let only when forced to by enemies, prayed to return for 2000 years, have returned and turned a wasteland into one of the most prosperous nations percapita in just 60+ years. The Holocaust also demonstrates that Jews deserve a homeland.

3. Every minute of Israel's existence, forces  in the world work to delegitimize Israel, because of jealousy, anti-Semitism, effort to deflect attention from their authoritarian-pathetic governance and other causes.

4. If the world left Israel at peace, it would solve so many of the world's needs in technology, medicine, water etc. For the world's health and well being, it is imperative to let Israel live in peace an pressure its enemies to focus on their own challenges and stop blaming Israel for it in-competencies. It is imperative to restore truth and realize it is Israel's enemies that are the enemies of peace, freedom,

prosperity for all.

5. Israel has made every effort to live in peace with its neighbors, despite repeated rebuffs. Now Egypt and Jordan have peace treaties. The so called Palestinians, who never existed before 1947, started the PLO in 1964, before Israel won the territories in the 6 day war. Since then, Israel has given up the Sinai and its oil wells, withdrew from Gaza and offered to Arafat 98% of the West Bank for peace. Nothing seems to satisfy the enemies of Israel except Israel being destroyed.

6. Pro Israel politicians must be elected. Example-Marc Kirtk for Senate in Illinois. There are clearly anti-Israel elected officials (Ellison of Minnesota for example)  and some who pretend to be pro-Israel but aren't (the J Street supporters for example). They must be defeated.

Cool Facts about Israel - New Version - Israeli Music"
 

This site was established on Tisha b Av 2009.

The saddest day of the year- we remember terrible tragedies that befell the Jewish people on this date over the centuries. The tradition teaches the Messiah is born on this date-we always think about a better future.

A new Tisha b Av catastrophe looms-

Pakistan with 50 nukes could fall to terrorists

Iran is close to getting a bomb

Abbas refuses to accept that a 2 state soluition includes a Jewish state

 Jews are told by an American president they cannot build houses in historic Jerusalem and  only 4% of Israeli Jews support him

What have we done for Israel today and everyday?

Hatikva - English Lyrics

As long as deep in the heart,
The soul of a Jew yearns,
And forward to the East
To Zion, an eye looks
Our hope will not be lost,
The hope of two thousand years,
To be a free nation in our land,
The land of Zion and Jerusalem.
