Help Others Help Themselves

Maimonides says that the highest level of giving charity is helping a person become self-sufficient.

Today, think of someone who needs a job and try to do what you can to help him earn money. You might help him get a job interview or you might think of some marketable skill that you could help him develop.

Want to know what Israelis and Palestinians in the Middle East really think about the conflict? Ask a question and I will get answers.

People ask Israeli Jews, Arabs and Palestinians questions. I go out and ask random people to answer.

Purim 5779 (2019) in Israel

We live in Jerusalem! Not a focus on the parties of Purim on Jaffe and the Shuck on which there were plenty but things around Israel we saw at the time (including a couple of pictures from Tel Aviv on regular Purim before Shushan Purim in Jerusalem

Deep thoughts to consider

One who breaks an unjust law that conscience tells him is unjust, and who willingly accepts the penalty of imprisonment in order to arouse the conscience of the community over its injustice, is in reality expressing the highest respect for law. Martin Luther King, Jr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was an American clergyman, activist, and prominent leader in the African-American Civil Rights Movement. He is best known for his role in the advancement of civil rights in the United States and around the world, using nonviolent methods following the teachings of Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.

There is only one class in the community that thinks more about money than the rich, and that is the poor. The poor can think of nothing else. Oscar Wilde Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde was an Irish writer and poet. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of London's most popular playwrights in the early 1890s.

I call upon the scientific community in our country, those who gave us nuclear weapons, to turn their great talents now to the cause of mankind and world peace: to give us the means of rendering these nuclear weapons impotent and obsolete. Ronald Reagan Ronald Wilson Reagan was the 40th President of the United States . Prior to that, he was the 33rd Governor of California and a radio, film and television actor.  

With the changing economy, no one has lifetime employment. But community colleges provide lifetime employability. Barack Obama Barack Hussein Obama II is the 44th and President of the United States. He is the first African American to hold the office. Obama served as a U.S. Senator representing the state of Illinois when he resigned following his victory in the 2008 presidential election. Born in Honolulu, Hawaii, Obama is a graduate of Columbia University and Harvard Law School, where he was the president of the Harvard Law Review. He was a community organizer in Chicago before earning his law degree. He worked as a civil rights attorney in Chicago and taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago Law School. He served three terms representing the 13th District in the Illinois Senate.

The community stagnates without the impulse of the individual. The impulse dies away without the sympathy of the community. William James William James was a pioneering American psychologist and philosopher who was trained as a physician. He was the first educator to offer a psychology course in the U.S. He wrote influential books on the young science of psychology, educational psychology, psychology of religious experience and mysticism, and on the philosophy of pragmatism. He was the brother of novelist Henry James and of diarist Alice James.

Every society gets the kind of criminal it deserves. What is equally true is that every community gets the kind of law enforcement it insists on. Robert Kennedy Robert Francis "Bobby" Kennedy also referred to by his initials RFK, was an American politician, a Democratic senator from New York, and a noted civil rights activist.

In every community, whether large or small, there are people who lead in their community in easy and difficult times. Donna Shalala Donna Edna Shalala served for eight years as Secretary of Health and Human Services under President Bill Clinton and has been president of the University of Miami, a private university in Coral Gables, Florida, since 2001. She was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation's highest civilian honor, by President George W. Bush in June 2008.  

Surplus wealth is a sacred trust which its possessor is bound to administer in his lifetime for the good of the community. Andrew Carnegie Andrew Carnegie was a Scottish-American industrialist who led the enormous expansion of the American steel industry in the late 19th century. He was also one of the most important philanthropists of his era.  

The benefits of education and of useful knowledge, generally diffused through a community, are essential to the preservation of a free government. Sam Houston Samuel "Sam" Houston was an American statesman, politician, and soldier. He is best known for his leading role in bringing Texas into the United States.

In every community, there is work to be done. In every nation, there are wounds to heal. In every heart, there is the power to do it. Marianne Williamson Marianne Williamson is a spiritual activist, author, lecturer and founder of The Peace Alliance, a grass roots campaign supporting legislation currently before Congress to establish a United States Department of Peace. She is also the founder of Project Angel Food, a meals-on-wheels program that serves homebound people with AIDS in the Los Angeles area. She has published ten books, including four New York Times #1 bestsellers. Her book, The Age of Miracles: Embracing the New Midlife, was published in January 2008 and spent five weeks on the New York Times Best Seller list. Her latest book, published in November 2010, is called A Course in Weight Loss: 21 Spiritual Lessons for Surrendering Your Weight Forever. She has been a popular guest on television programs such as Oprah, Larry King Live, Good Morning America, Charlie Rose[he Howard Stern Show and Politically Incorrect.

A city is a large community where people are lonesome together. Herbert Prochnow Herbert V. Prochnowwas a U.S. banking executive, noted toastmaster, and author during the middle 20th Century. As Vice President of the First National Bank of Chicago, Prochnow wrote several popular books on public speaking. He also wrote epigrams and anecdotes that appeared in The Saturday Evening Post and Reader's Digest.

I guess a small-town mayor is sort of like a community organizer, except that you have actual responsibilities. Sarah Palin Sarah Louise Palin is an American politician, commentator and author. As the Republican Party nominee for Vice President in the 2008 presidential election, she was the first Alaskan on the national ticket of a major party and first Republican woman nominated for the vice presidency. Her book Going Rogue has sold more than two million copies. Since January 2010, she has provided political commentary for Fox News, and hosted a television show, Sarah Palin's Alaska.

A community is like a ship; everyone ought to be prepared to take the helm. Henrik Ibsen Henrik Ibsen Norwegian playwright, theatre director, and poet. He is often referred to as "the father of prose drama" and is one of the founders of Modernism in the theatre. His major works include Brand, Peer Gynt, An Enemy of the People, Emperor and Galilean, A Doll's House, Hedda Gabler, Ghosts, The Wild Duck, Rosmersholm, and The Master Builder.

Community action is as valuable a principle on the international level as it has been domestically. Barney Frank Barney Frank is the U.S. Representative for Massachusetts's 4th congressional district since January 1981. A member of the Democratic Party, he is the former chairman of the House Financial Services Committee and is considered the most prominent gay politician in the United States.

thoughts on dealing with Gaza from Shalom Pollock

Before we consider the preferred solution for the  "Gaza threat" we should keep in mind some basics:

The "situation" will only get worse with Hamas calling the shots  (no pun intended) and being allowed to improve their military capabilities and control there. (Our "best-informed leaders" scoffed at a scenario of facing hundreds of thousands of rockets from Gaza once we abandoned it, both in 1993 -Rabin, and in 2005 - Sharon - our "great military minds that must be questioned - remember?)

The Hamas charter calls for killing all the Jews of the world, and they're educating their young to just that. They mean it.

As Eli Weisel put it, "when your friends say they will protect you - doubt it. When your enemies say they will kill you - believe it. Is the hope of  "managing the conflict" with Hamas and its loyal supporters, with the continued flow of tons of cash and other bribes working?
 I think not.
The materialistic approach of Shimon  Peres (he wrote a book called "The New Middle East"), was that the Arab mindset of refusal to live in peace with us can be altered with economic incentives and by flattering the terror bosses. 

 Peres was projecting his own worship of money, honor, and power when he suggested that all people are basically like him, and can be bought. His own principals, if he ever had any were long passe..

No amount of economic opportunities or of huge cash payoffs to date has managed to alleviate their determination to kill us all.. The opposite.
Arafat and Hamas are my first witnesses.

By now it should be clear that the Gaza problem is not about land. As recalled, we tried the ultimate solution of the hard  Left, begun by Rabin and completed by Sharon.  We handed Gaza over to the killers, and we were, of course, promised peace by our leaders.

So, if land or material benefit is not the solution, how do we eliminate the constant threat of millions of frightened Israelis?

Israel's leadership and elites have no intention of solving the problem.  


 Most prefer the current abominable situation to a bold, lasting solution which for them is a plunge into the unknown.
They relate to the Gaza "situation" as they would bad weather or road accidents. You live with it.
Most politicians are happy for the relative quiet between "flare-ups" during their own term in office. They want to ignore the sword held over the heads of half of the millions of its citizens. That's life.
Let the next politician deal with it.

 Not going "too" far is the rule of the game that both sides benefit. They can continue to make promises and threats for the benefit of their audiences and yet are careful not to pull the rug out from where they they both stand.

 

Hamas and Bibi continue to strike a pose while not plunging into the "unknown".

So what should really be done?

I suggest:

Accept the fact that many rockets will rain down on parts of Israel and prepare well for it, including plans for temporary civilian evacuation from some areas.
That will not be the first time in our history but hopefully the last.

Plan a detailed campaign of eliminating every key Hamas personality in "targeted attacks". At the same time massively target all known rockets and launching facilities and other Hamas infrastructure in a well planned preemptive strike.
Communicate to the enemy population that they must separate themselves from al  Hamas personnel and infrastructure is if they don't want to be hit.

 The round the clock attacks will continue until the military is satisfied that the mission has been accomplished as best as possible.

 When the military feels it is time, a massive ground assault will begin dividing the Gaza strip into manageable "bites", eliminating all opposition.
We will always consider our own soldiers' safety before those of the enemy and their population, just as the allies did in the war against the Nazis and as prescribed in Jewish Torah law.

Once we quell all opposition, military rule is enacted as it was before Oslo and before the massive Hamas rocket attacks. All weapons are surrendered within a very short time (hours I would think).
All those caught still harboring weapons will be shot on site.

 Terror-supporting "UNWRA" will be closed.  Jew-hatred taught in their schools will end. 

DeHamastication of  Gaza society, (like deNazification) will begin.

All known Hamas personnel without  "blood on their hands" will be given a choice: leave -  for the Sinai or Egypt or be escorted to Ben Gurion airport to go wherever they like. They must bring their families with them.
 If they choose not to leave, they will be tried (think Nuremberg trials) for aiding or membership in a terror organization dedicated to killing Jews and face jail. This category will include anyone who has had any supportive association with Hamas in any manner.

Encourage locals(carrot and stick) to come forward with information leading to the uncovering and arrest of the above category.

Any activity, physical or otherwise that threaten  Jews or Jewish sovereignty will be grounds for legal steps leading to deportation or other sanctions.

 Once order is restored and Hamas is demolished, Israel will announce its policy of voluntary emigration.

Financial incentives and administrative aid will be employed to encourage emigration.
This is a strategic goal of the first order. The huge sums spent on "managing" the Gaza "situation" will now be turned to solving the problem.

Polls repeatedly show that an overwhelming percentage of Gaza residents (similar to but less than Judea and Samaria) would emigrate if they only had the opportunity.
We shall help them generously.

Annex Gaza as we did Jerusalem and the Golan Heights.

Speak clearly about to whom the land belongs. End of discussion - just like Jerusalem.

Encourage the return of the industrious, wonderful Jews who were dragged from their homes, to develop this part of Eretz Yisroel as they did before the criminal expulsions of 2005. Encourage many more to join them.

 


Law abiding and non-terror tainted residents will enjoy human and civil rights (as no Arab does in any Arab country).
 Israeli citizenship will be an option only for individuals who have proven to be loyal to Israel, after a  careful and prolonged process much like in Japan, Switzerland, the US, and others.

There are only ywo candistes running for the Knesset who suggest the above in some form.

 

They are Moshe Feiglin(Zehut) and Itamar Ben-Gvir (Otzmah Yehudit)

 

Make Gaza Jewish and great again!
