Feiglin on Pres. Trump’s Withdrawal of US from the Nuclear Deal with Iran
Regardless that the US withdrawal from the nuclear agreement was best thing that could have happened to Israel, we must stop passing the responsibility for our own defense.
The Justice/Security Connection
If the ideas put forward at the recent Herzliya Conference are any indication, both the classic Right and religious Right are captive to the Oslo paradigm and the consciousness that produced it.
Ominous Déjà Vu
Unease. Déjà vu from Sharon's great Expulsion. It began with a column by Hagai Segal, who depicted the insistence of Migron’s residents not to move from their current location as a sort of childish stubbornness. After all, Kedumim was founded after it was moved from its original location and ultimately grew into a thriving community. So how dare those “children” of Migron, who never heard of settler leader Ze’ev “Zambish” Hever, think otherwise?
Did You Say Hallel Last Thursday?
Let’s be honest. How many shuls in your neighborhood celebrated Yom Ha’atzmaut this past week? There was a time, not too long ago, when 90 percent of shuls in America commemorated this awesome day… but now?
The Investor’s Guide To Israel’s Political Market (Conclusion)
When people thought that Avigdor Lieberman would someday be prime minister, I explained that Yisrael Beiteinu would disappear from the political map. The reason is that, like Kadima, the former foreign minister’s party is about a person, not a party.
Saber Rattlers
The scent of approaching Kadima primaries has turned the heads of this party of corruption into saber-rattling hawks.
Who’s Pressuring Bibi?
If Barack Obama didn't exist, Benjamin Netanyahu would have had to invent him.
The ‘This Is Their Land’ Mentality
The ritual of rockets that periodically pummel Israel’s southern communities includes numerous media interviews with the important people. The journalists attempt to extract from anybody who thinks he is somebody some piece of a resolution for this crazy situation that is unparalleled anywhere in the world.
The Yemenite Children Horror
The slippery slope of government micromanaging lives inevitably leads to tragedy and oppression
Beware: Feiglinism Poised To Bring Peace
This is how it works: A minister or MK who steps out of line – opposing the destruction of the Ulpana neighborhood, for example – is immediately accused of “Feiglinism.” It makes no difference if the accuser is Tzipi Livni or Ehud Barak. “This is simply terrible,” Kadima MK Nachman Shai explained on the afternoon news. “Feiglin determines the fate of the Likud MKs.”
A Salute To Migron
I do not like to give advice to people in times of distress. Every time a settlement facing destruction begins to debate whether to take the “offer” (in other words, the extortion) to leave or to cling to its principles and its place, I adopt our Sages’ advice to not judge others until I am in their place.
Who’s Afraid Of The Little Old Winemaker?
The aristocratic atmosphere in the elegant hotel that hosted Israel's wine competition did not disclose the scene that was about to take place: A small boutique winery from the Shomron, Hararei Kedem, won two gold medals and one silver medal. Hundreds of professional and amateur sommeliers watched in astonishment as the man with the beard and long sidelocks (who did not look particularly relevant to the glamorous event) hesitantly ascended to the podium to accept his medals.
Let’s Murder Him Twice
A murderous uprising is taking place in Israel; On the roads, In the mixed Jewish-Arab cities.
Zehut Will Demand The Finance Ministry
A vote for the Zehut liberty coalition is a vote for a just, ethical, prosperous, better society – a state in which economic bullying is not an option, and the fruits of economic growth will reach all the citizens and not just a handful of insiders
American Price Tag
The principle that we must defend ourselves by ourselves was the guiding light of all of Israel’s governments – from the Sinai Campaign until the First Gulf War.
Why Is Israel Chained To The Diplomatic Process?
Supposedly, the goal of the state of Israel is to achieve peace but “peace” cannot be the defined goal of a state. Peace is the result of the proper definition and achievement of a goal
Europe, Get Used To Gang Rapes
Why did Syrian refugees flee to frozen Germany, Sweden & Finland when closer countries speak Arabic?
More Dangerous Than A Nuclear Bomb
Is Israel preparing to attack Iran? According to media reports, Prime Minister Netanyahu is trying to convince his ministers to go on the offensive. If that is true, Netanyahu will go down in history as the prime minister who saved the State of Israel from destruction – not necessarily nuclear.
David, Goliath, And The Bulldozer
The off-duty soldier who recently killed the terrorist on the bulldozer reminds me of the biblical David - and not only because he stormed the Goliath bulldozer with a pistol borrowed from a nearby policeman.
What Are We Negotiating About?
Peace cannot be defined as the goal of a state.
Creating New Jewish Leadership
If Netanyahu’s name were Shimon Peres or Ehud Barak, none of these affairs would ever have been publicized or investigated. This is not about corruption. It’s about politics.
The Mask Is Off
When Israel is attacked, the world forgives the attackers because, after all, what are we doing here in the first place? In order to win, we must possess a different kind of justification –one that relies on truth.
Who Pays?
When a driver recklessly injures others, he, not his insurance, must compensate his victims
Israel Needs Capitalism, Not Socialism
The Negev was not allocated for free to whoever was willing to build and farm them (as was the practice in the US and Australia). They were settled quite successfully, however – by the Bedouins, who do not understand how socialism works and simply took the land!
The Jewish Economy Triangle: Capitalism, Faith And Loving-Kindness
Like every other aspect of running a country, economics is a complex business.
Temple Mount Closure And EU Boycott
The capitulation on the Temple Mount leads to the construction halt in Jerusalem.
What Happened?
When I was asked during the campaign how such diverse elements could support Zehut, I explained that the unifying factor was an aspiration for liberty, the will to get the state out of our lives.
Identity, Meaning And Liberty
If it wants to survive and thrive, Israel must base itself upon three key concepts: identity, meaning, and liberty.
War On Gaza?
As calls for all-out war on Gaza increase, it is important to set things straight.
Give the Settlers their Fair Share
The main obligation of a state toward its citizen is to provide them with security.
