It's spreading and its only the beginning

There is terror in Paris, Madrid,London and of course the U.S.A. .
World Jihad is spreading and its only the beginning.
All those who for years criticized Israel in its fight against terror are being targeted now.
Those terror acts were Jihad inspired and were in essence the seeds that have grown into full blown world Jihad.
Those who tried to force Israel to negotiate with mass killers are now facing mass murder everywhere.
If there is fear to travel on the underground in London or in a shopping mall in California then those who mistook mass murder for the " the legitimate rights of the Palestinian people " are to blame.
Israel tried to some extent to explain that the rights of all living between the Jordan river and the Mediterranean were to be respected.
When this right clashed with mass murder then security concerns became paramount.
The talk about a Palestinian state was and is a Jihad fueled attempt of mass murder of Jews in that place between the Jordan river and the Mediterranean.
Anyone with clear thinking understands that there will never be a "Palestinian state" as this is the platform for Jihad.
Jihad is here to stay and even the destruction of ISIL in Iraq and Syria will not stop this.
It is a cancer that is showing up everywhere in the world in one form or another.
The question at this stage is what can be done?
There needs to be a plan of 20 to 30 years to fight this world Jihad war.
This should include the obvious destruction of Isis and its leadership.
If somehow its leader could be captured and tried or at least killed, that would be a start.
The executing of all fighting members of Isil who volunteered or at least lifetime prison sentences.
Careful and extreme monitiring of mosques and incitement by Jihad inspired Imams.
Making sure children are not taught Jihad and it is not spread over the internet.
It will take a generation to try to fix the original sin of believing that mass murder in Israel was anything less than the beginnings of world Jihad
In the mean time it's spreading and its only the beginning.

It's not stopping

The third intifadah as it is being called is continuing unabated.
It is not stopping and not expected to stop.
Some including the Israeli prime minister had said that he believed that it would die down on its own.
That was said over a month ago and it has not.
It's not stopping and no one is doing much in this regard.
There has been a beefing up of police and army in certain areas and preemptive arrests to try to mitigate but that's it.
Real measures to battle this mini-war are not being used.
Here are some steps that should be taken.
Whether captured dead or alive the entire extended family should be deported. If there is clear evidence that the family knew of the atrocity that was to be committed.
House demolished of attacker within 24 hours.
All legal proceedings should not take more than 24 hours.
A new settlement built in every place a murder occurred.
This should start as the houses of the terrorists are destroyed.
Parts of Judea and Samaria should be declared Israeli territory. The Gush Eztion bloc should enter a five year annexation plan that would lead to complete annexation to Israel.
Arabs not involved in terror should be granted citizenship if they want it during this five year period.
Those who do not want this will be granted residency status.
The two state solution should be officially discarded. All these steps will stop the violence but it won't happen tomorrow.

WW3

If this isn't war then I am not sure what is.
Russian plane being blown up and Paris being attacked with hundreds of dead and wounded.
The French may have not awakened completely to this new reality.
They have a history of defeatism and lack of resolve that dates back to WW2. They do not want French soldiers dying in Iraq but they seem to have little choice now.
The west should have been planning the destruction of Isis long ago and now they have shocked the world.
Terror aims to paralyze and debilitate people.
If people in Paris are afraid to sit outside in Cafes then the Terror has won.
Those who refuse to put their soldiers in danger will find the terror on their doorstep, with fatal consequences.
The French who were humiliated by the Germans in WW2 are being humiliated by Isis in WW3.
Running away from terror and aggression never works.
It needs to be confronted and destroyed.
There is no other way

The winds of War

It is unclear where the latest knife intifada as it has been called is leading.
There have been many attempts to destroy Israel over the last 67 years and they have taken different forms.
This latest round has seen knife attacks and other low tech methods.
These methods are very effective in causing big headlines but less is causing any major change on the ground.
It seems the Arab side has spent all its options in its attempt to shake Israel into concessions.
This may be a prelude to the shutdown of the Palestinian authority and the chaos that may follow.
Nobody really knows.
Very hard to say how this all plays out. Won't be pretty.

The Temple Mount

It is the holiest place in the world for Jews.
There is no real other place.
It is where both temples stood and where a third temple will stand.
It is the only place in the world where Jews wish to pray and they cannot.
It is also the focal point for the new war or intifada as it is called.
The prime minister of Israel will be remembered for a lot of things but likely for announcing that Jews will not pray on HAR HABAYIT.
He has no authority in doing so and this action will not lessen violence in the short term even.
Denying the entrance of religious Jews who wish to pray is scandalous and smacks of weakness and fear.
Weakness and fear in the middle east is a recipe for disaster which has ostensibly started.
The violence will increase as the Arabs smell the fear that they have instilled in many in Israel.
Jews will pray in secret on the temple mount as there are many ways to do so even now.
One need not say words for certain prayers and prayer books are available on cell phones.
There is nothing that can stop in the long run prayer and presence of religious Jews and the eventual rebuilding of the temple there.
It is Jewish destiny.

Jewish tragedy

It is the day of commemoration of all bad things that have happened to the Jewish people.
The fast of the 9th of Av.
So many bad things, so much blood spilt.
Jews sit on the ground and cry for what was and dream of what will be.
What was had the Jewish people in their homeland with complete sovereignty.
The exile from the land never severed the connection of the Jewish people to its land.
In fact this was strengthened and handed down from father to son.
The latest terrible tragedy the holocaust and its aftermath the founding of the State of Israel has changed things somewhat.
We see that the Jews are moving back to the land and have become able to defend itself.
There have been mini tragedies along the way including terrorist attacks and forcible Jewish expulsions by Jews themselves.
This day of sadness is a inspirational day for all who participate.
The hope of a complete return to Jerusalem has started manifesting itself.
Those with eyes open can see this.
As for those who deny this for them we will also lament on this saddest of days.
Jewish tears and hope have brought us much closer to the rebuilding of the Temple in Jerusalem.
It will happen.
We all hope very soon.

Greek Debt

You gotta love em those Greeks!
They borrow money and more money and ostensibly refuse to pay back.
So there you go.
They say give us more with no strings attached.
Well that's terrific.
Why would anyone do that?
They should go back to their old currency which is ostensibly worthless and see where it takes them.
Their will be soon mass food and medicine shortages that will debilitate the country. There may not be fuel for hospitals and airports. The Drachma will be worth what it sounds like, drek. (nothing).
The black market will flourish and the Euro will still be used as a trusted currency.
. Peoples saving will be converted to Drachmas and will quickly lose value.
It may spiral out of control for regular Greeks but may bring relief to everyone else.
The Greeks are in for a very big surprise.
It won't be pretty.
