The Statesman Among Us

  • The concept of  Zionism has received adverse publicity in the press of late, especially thanks to slogans by supposedly pro-Palestinian activists in the West vilifying Jews. These supposedly pro-Palestinian activists are actually just antisemites; they have never proposed a thing that would make Palestinian lives better. Anyhow these activists call Jews “Zionists” to avoid having themselves labelled as Jew-haters.
  • Due to a fundamental clash of irreconcilable ethical religious principles – that of Torah versus Islamic Sharia – it appears that only Israel’s overwhelming military strength, command of technology and will to protect its country from tyranny can deter the nation’s Islamist enemies.
  • While combating a hostile local media that support what Netanyahu terms the “deep state”, health issues, personal slights, legal charges — many seemingly politically fabricated in the midst of an existential war by antagonistic state jurists determined to assert their control over elected politicians — Netanyahu presses on, not only on a mission to save Israel from fundamentalist terrorism, but ultimately, by extension, the West itself.
  • There does not appear to be anyone else in Israel who could have done a better job against the almost inestimable odds than those Netanyahu has been forced to overcome since October 7, 2023.
  • The words describing the crucial role of Queen Esther of ancient Persia apply equally to Israel’s statesman, Netanyahu: “Who knows but that you have come to your royal position for such a time as this?”

There does not appear to be anyone else in Israel who could have done a better job against the almost inestimable odds than those Netanyahu has been forced to overcome since October 7, 2023.

Great statesmen are generally recognized as such only after dire events faced by the nation have settled, and his strategy is seen to have succeeded. Once the threat to the nation has passed and fresh democratic elections eventually arrive, the statesman is often replaced as leader and a new prime minister or president is appointed to lead the nation into a better future – a future created through the efforts, wisdom and courage of his predecessor. This is what transpired with that great British leader, Winston Churchill.

Israel, the Jewish State

Israel, the Jewish State, is going to win because it has no choice.

Israel, the Jewish State, has external enemies.
Neighbouring hostile Arab Countries.
Numerous Islamic States committed to its annihilation.
Hamas, Hezbollah, the Palestinians, and other jihadist terror organizations

Israel, The Jewish State, has internal enemies.
Woke liberal leftist Israelis who want a European Democracy and will allow the destruction of the Jewish State.
Israeli Jews who are milking Israel financially and refuse to serve in the IDF.
Israeli Muslims who openly declare their hate for the Jewish State without fear of losing their citizenship and being expelled.

After decades of failed efforts for peace, it is madness to expect Israel’s mortal enemies to accept the Jewish State voluntarily.
Israel must stop begging for peace, and sacrificing land will get us nowhere.

Proudly declare that Israel is a Jewish State that has one goal: Protecting Jews at all costs!
To achieve this goal, Israel must be more powerful than its external enemies and willing to demonstrate it.
A weak Jewish State has no place in the Middle East.

Israel must use the next four years to align with the Donald Trump administration to achieve the following:
Handle its External Enemies.
Annihilation of Hamas and its Palestinian supporters and drive them out of Gaza.
Annex Gaza.
Annex Judea and Samaria.
Destroy Iran’s nuclear capabilities.
Strengthen the IDF to ensure a swift preventative response to potential external threats.
Handle its Internal Enemies.
Judicial reform to combat the attacks by the Woke liberal leftist Israelis.
Cancel the citizenship of any Jew refusing to serve in the IDF.
Cancel the citizenship of any Muslim who refuses to take an oath of allegiance to the Jewish State.

Israel should stop any support to Jihadist-infested organizations like the United Nations or the Hague International High Court, where there are different rules for Jews.

Israel, the Jewish State, must survive, and it is going to win because it has no choice.
