Madeline Brooks: Jonathan Pollard and his friend, Rabbi Bar – Hayim, challenge the hold the secular left have on Israeli society and call for religious zionists to bring new life to politics. They want them to shake off the second class status secularists imposed on them for decades, and hope they will boldly bring new leadership to the country. Bibi is described as weak, not deeply principled enough, and giving in to the judiciary’s left wing control. This control, which can overrule democratically chosen legislation, is compared to George Soros’ Open Society’s deliberate destruction of national integrity, replacing democracy with top heavy beurocracy. In addition to civil strife, what could be more serious in a country fumbling to combat enemies on every side?! What is not spelled out, but could have been, is that Israel’s enemies are all waging a religious war against it so what is needed is greater religious strength on Israel’s part. The video ends with the participants agreeing, “We can only succeed if we cling to Hashem and His Torah.” In other videos Pollard clearly spells out the importance of Torah to him.
Peloni: I noticed that Rabbi and Pollard continue to overstate the case which might fairly be held against Bibi, even suggesting that he buckled on Judicial Reform at the “first real sign of opposition”, which is clearly not accurate. He was in fact facing an ongoing US sponsored color revolution, and the considerable threat against the state, not just his govt, was both very real and very great, when he buckled on this topic. In fact, the USAID and US State Dept objective to destabilize the country led to Hamas believing that their moment for victory was well at hand, demonstrating the complicating features considered while Bibi pulled that legislation from being considered. While their arguments for the electorate being in need of an upgrade in choosing a leader may be warranted, I would argue that the outspoken bias expressed by Pollard and Rabbi Bar-Hayim against Bibi is quite significant, though more so with the former than the latter.
Bibi this , Bibi that… I mean there are what??? – 7.3 million Jews in Israel and everything rests on one man’s shoulders?
If that is the case, God help Israel when he dies.
Where are the other patriotic Non-Leftist Jews? Trump came out of nowhere and Israel has someone who will appear out of nowhere – that person is in his/her 20’s or 30’s today probably and suddenly will come to stardom.
The reason Bibi is special is that he was brought up in the US and is Free Market/Liberty/Freedom imbued by America and his Father who was a friend of Ze’ev Jabotinsky.
That is unlike Golda Meir who was brought up in Socialist Milwaukee. I went to the same college as she in Milwaukee and it was left Wing when I got there in 1971 – it’s worse now. Milwaukee had a Socialist mayor for 40% of the 20th century.
