Save us from our Leaders, for they are detsroying Us

Watching the eloquent speech that President Obama gave to AIPAC, it was easy to see how this guy got elected and how he just won the support of the Jewish lobby again. He knows just how to say what people want to hear, while maintaining his own agenda.
He carefully addressed Netanyahu’s complaints in a manner in which he completely nullified them. He redefined what he meant by 67 borders, as not really the 67 borders. But the biggest double talk was when he declared that every nation has the right to defend itself, yet claimed that he supported a demilitarized PLO state!
Reality is completely discarded by both the President and the Prime Minister. First of all there is no Palestinian people nor is there any legal reason to create another Arab state upon Jewish soil. Yes, there is a growing demographic problem, but the solution is not to give away parts of our homeland.
Two states for two people sounds nice but it is just not going to work. First of all there is no Palestinian people. And secondly the Arabs do not now and will never recognize a Jewish State. To them Israel is a democratic state which belongs to both Jews and Arabs. It is their hope that eventually the Arabs will outnumber the Jews and then they can turn Israel into Palestine “peacefully and democratically”. The Arab State that Obama envisions will never accept Jewish citizens, but the Jewish State will be expected to accept and keep Arab citizens. This completely nullifies the concept which Obama presented.
Netanyahu made a tremendous mistake by agreeing to any form of PLO state on Jewish soil. No matter how many conditions he seeks to impose upon such a state, his defacto recognition is a tremendous blow to the Jewish position. We simply have no right to negotiate any part of Israel with anyone, even for genuine peace.
Obama already gave lip service to the ridiculous concept of a demilitarized state. Now if Abbas either leaves Hamas or gets it to agree to accept Israel’s right to exist, then Netanyahu is committed to give away our homeland! Why? Why can he not simply state that Israel has no territories to negotiate. It only has it’s ancient homeland. We regained what we have today only because of Arab aggression. Had the Arabs agreed to the partition plan; had Jordan stayed out of the 67 war and not tried to destroy the Jewish State; had Egypt and Jordan decided to create Palestine on the pre 67 borders before 1967, then Israel would have been destroyed long ago. Now we are being asked to reject all the miracles which enabled us to rebuild our ancient homeland, and begin to dismantle our homeland as we hand it over to our enemies for “peace”.
Both Obama and Netanyahu must be living on a different planet if they really think peace will result from such nonsense.
The demographic problem is of our own making. It is the Israeli government, which refused to define Israel as the homeland of the Jewish People as it permitted Arab enemies to become equal citizens, which created this albatross. There are more than enough Arab lands to receive the Arabs living in Israel. This should be part of any peace agreement that we enter into. We have much to offer our neighbors. . . our homeland is not up for negotiation. Until we have a Jewish leader willing to take such a position. . . we have no Jewish leader. AIPAC, by applauding Obama’s political rhetoric only revealed their limited understanding of the challenge facing both the Jewish State and the Jewish People. May G-d save us from such leaders.
Project Shofar seeks to bring this message to those who choose not to see. It is incredible that the majority, both in the Exile and even in Israel, fail to see the obvious. They prefer to believe in the nonsense that we can make peace with those who seek our destruction rather than to accept the reality that with us is the greatest power in the world Who wants us to make real peace simply by accepting and demonstrating the fact that He and only He is in charge.
