When the floodgates were opened by Begin, the Left had nothing to do but to become more and more radical. So in a right-left-right-left movement – the right hand dismantling and the left hand pushing – Zionism was shoved closer and closer to the edge of the abyss.

In truth, when G-d is outside the game, this is the only possible outcome. When no alternative leadership holds up a vision of destiny, the public expects its leaders to retreat from any possible battlefront. Destruction of outposts, security prisoners, Ahmadinejad, the Shalit deal. Without destiny, all that is left is to retreat to the constantly shrinking remnants of existence.

It is not the leaders of the Right that are the problem. It is much bigger than them. It is the spirit that is missing. We must progress from the Zionism of existence to the Zionism of destiny; from the Zionism of Yad Vashem to the Zionism of the Temple.
