Once again Mr. Netanyahu has wooed us with his magnificent oratory, presenting an idyllic picture of how true peace can and should be achieved. And, once again, he has chosen to omit Divine Jewish Destiny from his presentation. While he is the Prime Minister and does have the obligation to protect and defend our nation, [...]
Netanyahu, the heir to Jabotinzky and Begin, has recently demonstrated his strong Zionist stance by freezing building in Judea and Samaria. Now he has linguistic experts coining new terminology to make the word “freezing” sound less cold. “Moritorium” and “suspension” have been suggested.
The fact is that any Jewish leader who even suggests negotiating our right [...]
Please forgive my straightforward manner as I was just born last Friday night and have not yet had the time to learn the intricacies of diplomacy. There are those in my country who seem to think that we need your permission to defend ourselves from deadly enemies and even to naturally grow and develop. With [...]
Only a master of double-talk and extremely clever deception could deliver a speech which gave the impression of reason, honesty and fairness to all.

For an American Secretary of State to come to Israel and declare the inevitability of eventually [...]
