32. Little support for Melamed in other Hesder yeshivas
JPS ,   Efrat   (12.15.09)
There may be some rabbis here and there who will say some calming words, but my impression is that most Hesder yeshivas and Hesder students know that the army is the army and you take orders. Most of us residents of Judea (I can't speak for the folks north of Jerusalem) are firmly behind the army and do not support insubordination in the ranks. Sure, we support legal protest by civilians, but the army is not the place for it. There are many senior active and reserve officers in Judea, and none of them that I have spoken to support protests like the ones we've seen my soldiers in uniform. It's against army rules and those who do it pay for their "right" to protest with jail terms, demotions, and no advancement in the ranks. So it should be.

37. NO - YOU ERR - PARTY HAS JUST BEGAN !!!.
Arn-Orao. ,   Sweden-Orao.   (12.15.09)
The radical rabbis residing at the heart of Samaria just sustained a blow to their well-cushioned stomachs; the same group that for years had been doing whatever it wants in this country, certain that no member of the secular political establishment would dare touch it. For the first time, the defense minister made it clear to them: Gentlemen, the party is over. THE CONTINUING PARTY, WILL BRING GREAT SUFFERING, TO THE RELIGIOUS ISRAEL, FOR TAKING THE STAND OF JEHOVAH !!!. Rabbi Melamed had several opportunities to withdraw from this confrontation, yet what we saw was an embarrassing escalation by an arrogant rabbi who fails to understand where he lives, what is democracy, and who pays for the bread he eats for breakfast. It was the arrogance of a man who is certain he is above the law and who has no respect for the government; in fact, he has no respect for anything. I AM SURE HE HAS RESPECT FOR JEHOVAH AND HIS WILL IN HIS WORDS !!!. When the secretary was asked what the honorable rabbi will be writing in his column, he responded: It’s a mystery. In other words: Mr. Deputy Defense Minister, you and Barak can go to hell. COULD BEE !!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LW4OPRb4uTs THE LINE IS BEGINNING TO BEE DRAWN IN THE SAND, HERE - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWSATpx7uzk Malachi 4 1"For behold, the day cometh that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly shall be stubble. And the day that cometh shall burn them up," saith the LORD of hosts, "that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. 2But unto you that fear My name shall the Sun of Righteousness arise with healing in His wings; and ye shall go forth and grow up as calves from the stall. 3And ye shall tread down the wicked, for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this," saith the LORD of hosts. 4"Remember ye the Law of Moses, My servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments. 5"Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD. 6And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the land with a curse." Arn-Orao.

Arn-Orao.
39. Rabbis Party Over??
Neal Rothner   (12.15.09)
The root problem is that the government,years ago, began useing the IDF soldiers to enforce a political agenda. Prior to the "Disengagement" the army was assigned to defending the country from enemies. A soloution would & should be to have a "National guard" made up of volunteers to do the political enforcement of our domestic government policies. Neal the Hasmonean
40. Vile article by a self hating lefty
m   (12.15.09)
Except for venting your hatred what exactly did you say?
41. Jew vs. Jew - Who will win?
Nick Sporek ,   Jerusalem, Israel   (12.15.09)
Not the Jew, that's for sure. If Jews hate each other why even fight those that hate us? If the anti-Zionist/ Jew haters out there had half a brain, they'd sit back and watch us destroy each other, again. Chanuka Sameach
