future, the idea of the establishment of a Palestinian Arab state in its

Now, this dangerous, irresponsible aspiration joins the burning political need
of an American president to garner votes that will rescue him from his
downfall during the election year that has just begun. The Democratic Party
needs the Arab vote and the oRering being sacriJced is once again the same
oRering, the State of Israel and its future.

The details of the deal are not yet known, but the rumors and snippets of
reports that have already been publicized are suTcient to understand that
the reference is to a plan whose end result is the mass release of Arab
terrorists, including murderers with Jewish blood on their hands, cessation of
the Jghting, restoring the reins of leadership in Gaza to the hands of the
“renewed" Palestinian Authority in preparation for the establishment of a
Palestinian state in Judea, Samaria, and the Gaza Strip, return of the hostages,
and, in the future, normalization with Saudi Arabia and perhaps, other Arab
states.
'Stopping the war wi
In his January 31, 2024 report, the journalist, Barak Ravid, revealed that “the America'
United States State Department is considering recognition of a Palestinian
state as part of an initiative for the day after the war in Gaza. Senior American
oTcials said that Blinken instructed the United States State Department to
present him with possibilities for American or international recognition of a
Palestinian state and also to submit recommendations regarding the way a
demilitarized Palestinian state would appear. Part of the Biden administration
now believes that recognition of a Palestinian state must be the Jrst step in
negotiations to resolve the Israeli-Palestinian conOict rather than the last...”

On the same day, Reuters reporters Simon Lewis and Humeyra Pamuk also
published a report that was essentially similar: “State Dept says US actively
pursuing the creation of a Palestinian state. The United States is actively
pursuing the establishment of an independent Palestinian state….Matthew
Miller declined to give details on the department's internal work on the issue,
but told a news brieJng the eRort has been an objective of President Joe
Biden's administration.

NBC on February 4th : The Biden administration is drawing up internal policy

options on oTcially recognizing a Palestinian state after Israel's war in Gaza, a
senior administration oTcial told NBC News.

An absolute majority of the Israeli public knows full well that the idea that if
only a Palestinian state were established and we were to disengage from the
Arabs, peace would come upon Israel is nothing but a farce and a delusion.
The Arab enemy takes an oath of allegiance to its commitment to continue
the war against the People of Israel until it evacuates and disappears from 'Israel making detaile
the entire Land of Israel. As long as JaRa, Haifa, and Acre are not Arab and plan for Rafah'
cleansed of Jews, the Arab war against the Jewish state will continue. In the
charters of Fatah and Hamas these matters are written explicitly and the
leaders of the organization openly and incessantly proclaim this. The only
diRerence between the organizations is whether the way to achieve this
objective is by means of a staged “salami” process or by means of one
objective is by means of a staged “salami” process or by means of one

The inclination of many Israelis, even those in leadership, to agree to

concessions and withdrawals is interpreted in the Western world as evidence Rocket fire on northe
of the weakness of our claim to rights over the Land. In the Arab world, it is continues
interpreted as evidence that exercising additional force against Israel will
yield the desired result from their perspective, the expulsion of Israel from
the historical cradle of its birth, on the way to its total destruction.

Conversely, when Israel demonstrated its strength, it garnered respect,

bordering on reverence, throughout the world. This was the case after the Six
Day War as well as after speciJc events like Operation Entebbe and the
bombing of the Iraqi nuclear reactor.

Israel’s immense, unprecedented humanitarian aid for the enemy, in the clear
knowledge that more than half of it is transferred into the hands of the
enemy’s armed forces, despite the fact that Israel has not yet received a sliver
of information about its hostages, sends a clear and unambiguous message
of Israeli disintegration, fragility, and inability to withstand the pressure. The
understanding in the Arab world is that it is confronting a weak, frightened
entity that s easily pressured, which will sacriJce its future for temporary and So who is in charge o

limited peace.

The primary source of pressure on Israel is actually its ally, the United States
of America. The administration repeatedly claims that this will be a new
Palestinian authority, diRerent, and especially, demilitarized, one that will not
pose a security threat to the existence of Israel. But beyond the security issue,
to which there would also be no recourse if, G-d forbid, a state of that kind
were to arise, there is a much more profound and signiJcant issue, and that
is the justice of our claim to the right to settle our land.
Caution! A Palestinia
A Palestinian Arab state will not only pose a security threat to the Zionist the way
enterprise (after the establishment of such a state G-d forbid, it is
independent to act as it pleases and no one will be able to obligate it to
remain demilitarized as the Americans hope. Additionally, it is worth
remembering that even Gaza was characterized as “demilitarized”, yet we
absorbed a massacre blow on the morning of Simchat Torah from that same
“demilitarized” entity). However, it also and primarily expropriates from Israel
the basic and simple truth that the Land of Israel belongs to the Jewish
people.

If we have no right to Judea and Samaria and Jerusalem, we have no right to

Tel Aviv and Haifa. If we withdraw from the basis of our historical right to the
Land, why not withdraw further and further in the wake of more and more
military, terrorist, and international pressure?

It is incumbent upon the State of Israel to display national resolve. We were

humiliated on the morning of Simchat Torah, and now, we must restore our Eretz Yisrael in the pa
national dignity, defeat Hamas, and show the entire world that anyone who the Kuzari Series
harms Israel will pay a steep price. The Arab world around us is waiting to see
how we will act, and on the basis of the lessons of the current conOict, they
will determine the next attack on Israel, whether it will take place or whether

be unbearable for them.

Therefore, we must take steps that will restore deterrence on all borders, in
the south, north, and east.
Mishpatim: Acceptin
Our eastern border projects a calm demeanor, but the testimonies of
residents close to the border indicate the existence of incessant shooting
from the east in the framework of what appears to be Jordanian military
exercises. The smuggling of weapons and funds from Jordan to terrorist
elements in the Palestinian Authority continues. Queen Rania and the
Jordanian foreign minister go very far in their anti-Israeli statements. Solar
energy agreements are canceled.

The Jordanian ambassador is recalled due to what is characterized there as

the Israeli killing of innocent people in the Gaza Strip. Support for Hamas
among the Jordanian public is gradually rising. Central voices in Jordanian
politics, among them the parliament speaker, call for a reassessment of
agreements with Israel. Jordanian support for the South African lawsuit in the
Hague is clear and dominant. Are we waiting for more blatant hints to
understand that the existential threat to Israel will come from the east as
well?
Countless children su
The necessary response at present from Israel’s perspective must begin with trauma from Oct. 7
applying Israeli sovereignty over Judea and Samaria, and over the Jordan
Valley Jrst, a move that has a broad national consensus crossing party lines
and policies. By doing so, an Israeli initiative will replace the trend of
concessions and withdrawals and present the world and the people of Israel
with a clear vision that returns us to the Zionist path. By asserting sovereignty
over the Jordan Valley, we will also preserve the strategic depth required for
Israel's security, strengthen settlements eager for additional population, and
cause the untapped tourism potential of this region to Oourish.
Support our soldiers
As far as the Gaza Strip is concerned, it must be under Israeli military and lines
civilian control. Only in that way can the thousands of displaced Israeli
residents of the surrounding communities and kibbutzim return safely to
their homes. Tending to the sewage and infrastructure in Gaza should not
intimidate a nation like ours and should not be a rationale for relinquishing
the achievements of our soldiers.

Israel has displayed remarkable diplomatic, security, and unity in the current
war. 74% of Israeli citizens oppose the establishment of a Palestinian state.
With this tremendous backing from the people, it is incumbent upon the Let me tell you a secr
government of Israel, and its leader, to withstand pressures, prevent the
establishment of a Palestinian state, and safeguard the existential interests of
the people of Israel. Justice and morality are on our side. We must return to
the Zionist values of settlement, security, and aliya on the basis of a healthy
consciousness of sovereignty.

Let us ascend for we will prevail.

The major mistake of the USA and it's allies is that they continue to make the
mistake of believing that the Arab / Muslim world thinks the same way as the
Western world. This fundamental mistake is the root of all failed attempts to bring

Do you want a state? Well apparently the way to show you are worthy of a state is to
murder people in the most heinous way imaginable and kidnap hundreds of others.
This is a sure way to show you are deserving. The world is bonkers.

Keep talking. Let everyone see behind that mask of yours. Coming here under
the pretence that all you want is peace and the poor gazans etc. We know what
you want and may your curses against the Jewish people fall upon you! Jews
are in their homeland. Get over it or get help.
