Dont Crap Where You Eat: How to Achieve Personal Success in Israel and Redeem its People...
Very refreshing indeed.
Got to see alot that was completely new to me, got to hear alot too.
First thing back i read this:
http://haaretz.com/hasen/spages/737634.html
Then I read this:
http://israelnn.com/news.php3?id=106741
Chew on that a little. It should make you think.
Aliyah has nothing to do with Israel. It has to do with romantic personal interpretations and nostalgia. Nothing wrong with that though I guess.
Aliyah is made to a mystical Homeland. Israel is a country where at any time in almost any neighborhood in the country someone can be found to be relieving themselves on the sidewalk, and then when they are finished go vote for people like shimon peres, amir peretz and ehud olmert. Talk about crapping where you eat...
Some people ask why so many Olim make yerida. its precisely for that reason. They make Aliyah to a special wonderland then only to discover that its a place where everyone craps where they eat.
Virtually every Israel craps where he eats. He drives dangerously, litters constantly, disregards the pride of his enemies, and votes for people who do the same but do it better and get paid for it and respected because of it.
Israelis crap where they eat so terror is ignorable. Israelis crap where they eat so they have no conception of a meaningful self respect. Israeli crap where they eat so Shalhevet Pas can be murdered, Gilad Shalit can be kidnapped, and Gush Katif can be razed and not motivate political change in the direction I am partial to, like it all never happaned.
So if you are a dati leumi type, a kahanist, a meretz voter, a union member, or just a undefinable collection of sectoral confusions, remember that there is only one lesson you will ever need to learn in order to make this country better for one and all: DONT CRAP WHERE YOU EAT!!!
Show a little self respect, have some standards, cultivate expectations and vote for people who do the same.

Existential funk...
This is Gd...

An incredible vastness that we can hardly contemplate, separate from us completely, yet unavoidably dominating our minds...and just waiting, at a distance incomprehensible to our minds, for you and I to find him.
And this is us...

Tiny little creatures with nothing more than puny little machines of our own limited creation to discover the universe, Gd, and the purpose of our little existance with.

Hebron Invasion

We are a sick people.
Our judgment is despicable and our integrity is lacking in every category.
Surely, we have now succumbed to Herzl's vision of the Zionist dream with “Jews being arrested, beaten, and expelled from their own lands by Jewish Police and armed forces.”
The realization of a dream. How beautiful.
Sisters and Brothers, we don’t have the ability to keep ourselves healthy. Thus, there is nothing more important now than for the arabs and other gentiles to show us the pathway to self-respect and self-redemption. We need the gentiles more than ever.
See, with our states reconstitution we often fool ourselves into thinking that we have been cured. We have often thought ourselves redeemed because we now have a country like everyone else. Well, with our state we are no closer to redemption of any kind. In fact our state blinds us to the deterioration of our people. GD damn Jewish leaders who have given up the struggle for our freedom, who sell us further into mental slavery through religion or Zionism or peace.
Our men have failed us and now there is only our great nemesis left to help us, the Gentile.
I want to beg the gentiles of the world not to give up on hating Jews. We need your hate to be more virulent and unrelenting than it has ever been before. No more partially revealed hatred, let it flow in every country, neighborhood and street where Jews are to be found. Do not stop hating us lest we kill ourselves.
Your hate will be like the new Moses for us, a guide, a teacher, and beacon of light which will motivate Jews for generations.
Your hate will be our salvation.
A nuclear Iran could be our greatest hope, our old Persian enemies making a comeback…like the bible reborn.
Let us be reborn too.

PM suffers significant stroke...
Whatever else happens from this point on you can count on:
1. Sharon is finished and even if he survives will be unfit for office based on health reasons.
2. His political carreer is over.
3. Ehud Olmert is not PM material so Kadima will run out of steam soon enough, unless Olmert can perform another 1967 type military miracle...
Back to Likud VS Labor?
GD Knows.

Mail Call............
Lots of mail, too much to go though, but here is one that caught my eye:
--btw, the spelling mistakes are not my own, i cut and paste the mail. I personally make lots of spelling mistake but am not gona get blamed for anyone elses for dang sure golly gee whiz.
Dear Frank,
I am a comitted kahanist, what do you have to say about that, huh??
I dare you to be "Frank" about that topic, mister Frank one!!
Leah
Well for starters Leah, I dont care where you put your political money. but in ths case i think that the term Kahanist must be seriously defined and qualified. Which Kahane faction group are you talking about?
If it is of the Haivri an Lenny Goldberg strand then I think you're cool and ok. otherwise my jury is still out on the rest who have yet to prove themselves reasonable or worthwhile.
Thats that.
Dont forget to vote Hazit.

Ok, Ok, Okayyyyyy............
I have gotten all 1 billion of your emails--even responded to a lucky few.
Here's what the puppets have to say: (for the most part)
"when will you update the Ideological Underground..."
"tell me what you think about feiglin and his victory now..."
"tell me what you think about netanyahu..."
I am gonna handle Feiglin briefly, ignore natanyahu, and probably not say anything you haven't heard in other places by better people:
1. It is no victory to win 15% of 35%.
2. I am opened minded enough to say this about Feiglin and his cult: "I'll believe it when I see it", but no earlier.
3. Feiglin isn't equipped to deal with regional strategic concerns, like Iran's nuclear arsenal in the making. Therefore, he isn't fit to be prime minister.
Sharon may actually be the only politician with the the kind of political power needed to force a consensus on the issue of a pre-emptive strike against Iran within the cabinet and Knesset, but his intent remains to be seen.
Needless to say, terror surrounds us with only the promise that life will get alot harder before it gets any easier.

What Israelis want and the failure of the right:
...But how can you say that the Knesseteers aren't an option for the right wing, when National Union is the only right wing party that has a plan to offer...
and
...How can you say those things about Manhigut Yehudit...They are the only right wing option that most Israelis can swallow...
Arrrggghhhh......
Okay, I am going to do you all a favor get educational for you guys. I am going to teach you about Israelis and their politics.
Here goes:
Israelis have two main political concerns: security and economic interests. They want to have money in their pockets and live without fear of violence.
These concerns dominate their political vocabulary. Everything else comes at an extremely distant third to these two concerns, be it Jewish identity, Zionism, what have you, etc.
In terms of choosing parties and politicians they are very tachless: Israelis want a party that has goals consistent with their concerns and a solid plan behind it.
Additionally, most Israelis want that plan to provide for what they perceive as the dignity of the arabs in Yesha and their state to be.
Ideally they want a leader that is politically powerful and savvy enough and to make it all happen.
They are no longer driven towards ideological based programs that cant demonstrate a concrete payoff.
Thus, they see right wing parties, and especially the far right parties, as non-starters because those parties don't address their concerns in any quantifiable way that is measurable by their senses of justice and pragmatics.
That's it.
No Jordan is palestine "concept" is going to motivate them; no Jewish Leadership "concept" is going to motivate them. Israelis want real plans based on today's strategic realities, not concepts without a clue.
The need for parties like NU and MY to proffer such concepts is an attempt by them to infiltrate the mainstream, where they hope to compete with the left for general support and save the day. This means that they have to water down their message to a point palatable to the big parties and coalition leaders, which in turn leads them to avoid taking meaningful stands on issues like the expulsion from Gush Katif.
Right now, this means that they are not going to create the kind of opposition needed to prevent more expulsion. But perhaps even more significantly, they have not and never will promote the type public awareness that regular citizens need to make relailbe decisions on crucial existential issues.
During the entire expulsion from Aza not one party published a single notice in any Hebrew or english newspaper giving a serious list of reasons why the expulsion was a bad idea. This is why all of the slogans against the expulsion were simple ideological rhetoric, lacking any conrete meaning to confused Israelis.
What these parties did do was sit in the cabinet and sip coffee while drafting ineffectual bills to delay the process, already half-heatedly accepting it.
Finally, another failure of the Knesseteers is that the left wing in Israel is way better off for the expulsion, whereas the right is no better off for it.
It should seem that there has been a lot to capitalize off the expulsion, the suffering of the Katif refugees, security at the Aza Egypt border, the tremendous cost of the operation, etc. But the right wing parties have not gained at all. And this is because they are inept.
As weird as it may sound to you, we should have gained a lot after the Hitnatkut, but we didn't. Every bad ituation is something that we should try and capiltalize off, but we have not. The left has, and this is why more expulsions are inevitable.
We need a force that can convey the right info and educate people through public awareness campaigns. But this wont happen under the Knesseteers and Feiglinites. So it doesn't matter if you support them. If you do, its like I have written before, you are like a lemming who goes out for swimming lessons rather than removing the stupid idea of getting into the water from your mind to begin with.
Hazit can promote public awareness, and that's why you should support them.

In tribute to a classic Jackass:

War is an ugly thing, but not the ugliest of things. The decayed and degraded state of moral and patriotic feeling which thinks that nothing is worth war is much worse. The person who has nothing for which he is willing to fight, nothing which is more important than his own personal safety, is a miserable creature and has no chance of being free unless made and kept so by the exertions of better men than himself.
--John Stuart mill
The enemy is anybody who's going to get you killed, no matter which side he's on.

Things I don't want to hear anymore about because they threaten my masculinity:

Jonathan Pollard did the right thing. But every time I hear about him I am reminded that I feel like we don't have any intestinal fortitude, in turn making me feel like I don't have any IF. Therefore, I wish to hear no more on the topic.
2. Gush Katif:
We are total wimps for this one. Gd this makes me feel like I am menstruating or something. Same as for Pollard here. Nuff said.
We suck.
If you don't feel like you suck after hearing about Pollard or Gush Katif it's because you don't have enough Maccabee blood in your anemic veins.

Why Sharon left and what to expect in the next election:
There are two possible outcomes in the next election:
1. Ariel Sharon wins by a thin margin.
2. Ariel Sharon wins by a large margin.
Trust me, he will win by a very large margin and will maintain an even greater stranglehold over the Knesset, and there will be more tragedy involved for good decent people.
Why did it make sense to leave the party now?
If you just said, “um, because of Amir Peretz (AKA Super Musty), right?” you are an idiot mouth breather just because.
Sharon would have eventually left the party one way or another and Amir Peretz simply provided him with the best possible opening he needed to do so., that being: Ariel Sharon knows that traditional Labor voters and their ruling elite will never support a hairy, uneducated, super Musty, Sephardic union boss. NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!!!
Like a tremendously overfed vulture Sharon is now sweeping in for all of the floating Labor votes and taking half of the Likud’s with him. He is certain to be the darling of the left-wing elites, who will support him out of pragmatics. People will also see his party as the first viable “centrist” party (which it wont be after he’s gone).
As a backward extremist I do not view Shimon Peres as an man who stands by any ideological integrity and believe that he will eventually join Sharon's party--like the evil vampire whore I have exposed him to be. But even if he does'nt, he and Lapid (who will suffer big time losses) will help solidify the Sharon government mandate after the election is over.
Also:
Leaving the Likud before the primary but after the vote to postpone it demonstrates his support in the Likud, and allows him to exit a winner (which Israelis like) without the risks of running against anyone else for party leadership. This also has the added effect of vilifying anyone with any sort of right-wing inkling as an obstacle to peace and the democratic process. He looks like he is leaving because of crazy right-wingers, not because he is scarred that he won’t win the primary (which he would).
And:
He will without any doubt be the most powerful and effective evil Prime Minister Israel has ever had. He will make Ben-Gurion look like the little conniving elf-fairy he was.
Israelis will vote for him if for no other reason than they think he is going to win anyway.
Bottom Line:
Sharon could be PM in the Likud, but he is leaving increase his mandate by attracting the people he really represents: “center” (read: without a clue) leftists and rightists. They will give him the monumental landslide victory he needs to be the kind of dictator he has always wanted to be. It is a smart plan.
Labor will lose big.
Likud will lose really big.
The National Union/Mafdal Knesseteers won’t matter at all. (Just ask Aryeh Eldad. Why do you think he is so pissed about seated sixth on the list: He doesn’t think the NU will get too many seats in the Knesset, where he is one of the few MK’s that put his reputation on the line during the expulsion.)
The End

The wasted vote theory is BS! (Or) Unity Sucks!!!
The big discussion in right-wing politics now is “unity”.
Lately, you hear a lot of: “Whaa, whaa, whaa, all the parties should join together, blah, blah, blah.”
Well I am here to tell you that unity sucks. Yes it does, it sucks indeed.
Here are the 3 competing interests in right wing politics today and my stunning analysis of them:
The Knesseteers:
Knesseteers are people who think that The National Union and Mafdal are the right wing answer. People with this belief also make good candidates for the Darwin awards. They think that their parties can make a difference in the left wing agenda this country is hooked on—this after the Jewish expulsion from Gaza. So as you can see they are really quite stupid. Next time you meet one give ‘em a cookie and a nice pat on the head and then when he’s too busy eating the cookie to notice push him down the steps.
The Feiglinites:
Feiglinites are like Knesseteers on a mission.
The Alternatives:
Alternatives rule. I love having alternatives. When is having an alternative a bad thing? Alternatives are people who look for actual options to the toilet boil of Israeli politics. Unlike the Knesseteers they don’t like swimming in doodoo, they like flushing it down the toilet into the sewer with the arab's where it belongs.
These parties cannot unify.
The Knesseteers blame the Alternatives for wanting options while trying to convince them that they will be more productive cleaning out the toilet bowl from the inside rather than flushing it from the outside.
Feiglinites say things like: “we have to fight this war on multiple fronts, lets infiltrate the big pieces of doodoo from the inside…yada. yada, yada.” No effort in Israel’s history has ever been analyzed more stupidly, including Shimon Peres’s attempt to enter Israel into the arab league, in the hope that we could make a difference or take it over from the inside.
They have been in the doodoo so long they think it’s like delicious marshmallow fluff or something.
So the Knesseteers and the Feiglinites are actually proffering alternatives to progress and wasting everyone’s time.
The Knesseteers have already failed and the Feiglinites are on the way to realizing that they have too, which will hit them like a ton of bricks. When they wake up they will have all sorts of excuses for their failed ideas, but it will be too late, they will be seen as phonies to a new generation of post-expulsion right wing Jews.
There you have it, nice and simple.
Now go simple reader and speak my truth to the world.

Project X: The Musty experiment revealed!
Folks, this is an Ideological Underground exclusive.
The left wing in Israel has seen some hard times since 1977. Their studies indicated to them that if they had a socialist "oriental" type leader they would win big in the election. This way they could appeal to their own mass leadership and the undesirable, but necessary, Sephardic Jews.
But here was the problem: Obviously no normal Sephardic Jew would be embrace socialism, much less Labor, after the abuses hurled at them by the Labor elitists in Israel. So, in 1977 they began work on the Musty Plan.
Operation Musty involved a series of genetic experiments that would borrow various DNA strands from specific personalities that would culminate in a mutant creation that would be charismatic, embrace socialism, fight for workers, and posses eastern features.
I have attained the identities of the people Israel stole DNA from to create the Musty one.
Behold:
Subject #1: Stalin
Scientists managed to get some of this precious DNA from a secret shrine that Shomer Ha'tzair still keeps to the man of steal. Apparently they worship his blood or something. Why old Staly you ask? Stalin had charisma, big balls, and was totally evil in the way a Labor party leader has to be. Its a fact the Ben Gurion worshipped Stalin by sacrificing Jewish Yemenite babies to him over an alter made from the bones of dead Irgun members.
Subject# 2: Yishwan the Gypsy

You probably don’t know this but old Yishwan was the Mapai's number one assassin. Just look into his eyes...Anyway Yishwan was frightening and also evil. BG loved Yishwan, there are rumors that BG actually fathered Yishwan but was too embarrassed by his dark complexion to be seen with him in public. No one knows what happened to Yishwan. His gypsy cunning and genetic bond with BG made him a shoe in for Project X.
Subject #3: Saddam Hussein

Saddam had the exact look that project Musty needed and he is totally evil, in a bitch arab kind of way. Carrying on, the french provided Iraq with a nuclear reactor, which Israel destroyed in the early 80'2. Everyone knows that. But what most people don’t now is that super Israeli Spies were able to swab Jacque Chirac's lips only moments after making out with Saddam Hussein’s ass in the late 1970's, thereby attaining Saddam's DNA.
Yes, Hussein and Chirac were lovers, just take a look at this picture of the young couple and notice how they can hardly resist holding hands:

Subject #4: Burt Reynolds

Subject# 5: Super Mario

And with that I give you the finished product, Mustachio (Aka Musty) the Sephardic Socialist:


GOOOOO MUUUSSTYYY!!!!!!!!!!
----------------------------------
My Journalism rules.
Musty sucks.

Awwww poor Peres!!!!!!!! Shimon says: "I'm a Loser!"
Bet you didn't know Peres is a vampire. Well he is. It's a fact. Just look at the uncanny resemblance between him and Dracula:
These two are clearly related.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now on a more serious note, I sure am glad that we wont have to see the 3 headed beast anymore.
Man that is is one terrifying political bitch monster.
Things just haven't been the same for old Shimon since his vampire lover dropped dead.
Look at the romantic couple, about to get into in some kind of kinky vampire Jewish blood swapping make-out session.
Now that the vampire is out for the count I fullheartedly look forward to the career of my newest enemy Saddam Hussein's adopted little gypsy brother, Mustachio the socialist:
Congratulations Musty!!!
Here's to a new era of socialist political jackasses...yaay go Musty!!!!!

End Phase 1
The 2nd age now begins.
It will be different and unique while remaining the same.

The "Security Fence"
Yes, the "Security Fence" is bad.
Here’s why: It will alienate Jews from their identity.
The primary reason for the existence of the Zionist movement was the reconstitution of the Jewish state. The most vital ingredient in that mission was the revival of Jewish attachment to the Jewish Land on the Land.
However, every generation since the re-establishment of the state has been dwindling ideologically, due to years of leadership without purpose.
The greatest evidence of this weakening is the general acceptance of the myth "Arab" rights to parts of the Jewish Homeland by Israeli's--the greatest dupe of all times.
In light of the weakening of the Jews, there can be little doubt that future generations of the Jewish people will see the fence as the rightful border of the State of Palestine. Thus, the fence will create the impression that Jews should not live beyond its position; alienating Jews from their crucial Birthright.
Eventually, the fence itself it will be viewed as cruel barrier between Israel and peaceful “Palestinians”. More, it will be called barrier to normalized relations between both states west of the Jordan River and, thus, a barrier to peace itself.
Finally, the myth a “Palestinian nation” will be formalized within the minds of our future generations, which will undermine the Jewish Birthright. This will result in a diminished concept of Jewish identity for Jews everywhere.
That’s enough to make it a bad thing.

Tali Fahima and Leftist Terror
It should come as no surprise that a leftist Jew has been arrested for collaboration with Arab terrorists, in Israel.
If you know your Zionist history, particularly since the Balfour declaration, then you know that these 2 phenomena were to be expected. Maybe not specifically, but in general, there was predictability.
However, the Fatima...I mean... Fahima case (and those that will follow it) stand insignificant held against previous, and better-known terror collaboration projects.
Here, I refer to the Oslo Peace Process and its well-known architects, who gave Arab terrorists Land, weapons, money and enhanced legitimacy. This amounted to the facilitation of the strategic/tactical goals of a terrorist organization, and usually gets a states name added to a list of rogue states that sponsor terror.
But, accounting for the fact that the people of Israel chose leaders who sponsored terrorism against their own country, there can be little surprise at the activities of little Fatima...I mean...Fahima. She is the result of a series of self-effacing policies and attitudes imposed by Israeli leadership on Israel, not the first of which was Oslo. The leftitst 'refusenik' soldiers should be looked at in the same light.
From this view, the depth and perfidy of Oslo are expanded. For not only has it succeeded in imposing greater terror upon the people of Israel than ever before, it has also created 'activists' for its cause on 2 levels. On the first, are the soldiers who refuse to serve in Yesha and combat the enemy, and on the other you have Israeli civilians aiding the terrorists whom the soldiers refuse to combat. Brilliant! So, unlike others would have you believe, Oslo is alive and well.
But the leaders of Israel are not the only culprits. They are not solely responsible for the potential doom of Israel. In the name of accountability, I must mention that since the people of Israel chose the Oslo architects to lead the country, they too are accountable for every Jewish life taken in the Oslo War. Which, should humiliate the Soul of every Jew alive.

Tisha B'av and Jewish Nationalism
We are well on into the 9 days preceding Tisha B'av, the fast in remembrance of the 2 destroyed Temples of Israel and numerous other national tragedies.
This is a day for specific national and personal reflection. A time when we must consider the destiny of the Jewish people and the movements we are making towards that destiny, both personally and nationally.
It is a time of proactive Judaism, where we consider our liabilities and turn them into successes. These considerations are integral to the purpose of Tisha B'av, for, through this process, a proactive Jewish national identity can be developed.
Proactive Nationalism
A proactive nationalist recognizes the meaning of self-respect and the depth of Jewish accountability. The nationalist recognizes that the only way to change the state of Judaism is to accept responsibility for it.
For, only by shouldering the responsibility for our people's liabilities can we effect a national change. That every Jew would accept personal responsibility for the shortcomings of world Jewry, past and present, is the goal of the Jewish nationalist.
The proactive nationalist sees any Jewish problem as his/her own and changes it for the better!
The proactive nationalist is an asset to the Jewish people; a worthy example to be duplicated.
On a day of national Jewish remembrance, like Tisha B'av, a nationalist remembers the greatness of the Hebraic Torah Civilization, its tremendous value to the world and its contributions to mankind. The nationalist is inspired by this history and seeks to duplicate its successes. The Nationlist contemplates that civilizations demise, but only in order to prevent such events from occurring again. The nationalist also contemplates the goy in terms of that civilization, of what the goy owes him and of what he never owes the goy--his/her self-respect.
It is a day of righteous indignation, for the dignity of our people. The fast of Tisha B'av is therefore of an intense national value; it is a day that is good for the Jews. The nationalist enjoys Tisha B'av.
Reactive Identity
The owner of a reactive Jewish identity does not recognize the value of self-respect or the depth of Jewish accountability. Such a person has a Religionist view of Judaism and sees Tisha B'av as a day of ritual remembrance for the sins of the Jewish people.
This type does not shoulder responsibility for the liabilities of world Jewry. The reactive Jew either seeks ritual or runs from it, both in place of activating true Hebraic Torah Civilization. The reactive Jew's entire perspective is subject to the whims and weaknesses of various alien influences. This Jew does not believe in the destiny of the Jewish people. The reactive Jew is a burden unto the Jewish people, for whom the proactive Jewish nationalist must take responsibility.
For the reactive, Tisha B'av, is a day of mourning and self- flagellation. It is yet another day where we inactively regret our sins and claim repentance. On this day the reactive does not actually consider that the absence of Hebraic Torah Civilization decreases the quality of Jewish existence. The reactive learns fear from Tisha B'av; fear of the goy and his wrath.
The self-respect of the reactive Jew is dependant upon the preferences and weakness of the goy, not upon true Jewish identity. The reactive Jew actually reaffirms his/her reactive perspective on this day, leading to Jewish complacency. Ultimately, Tisha B'av becomes a meaningless day upon which nothing changes and nothing is learned.
We cannot afford any more wasted Tisha B'av's. Do not be a reactive Jew. Take responsibility for yourself and your people. Use Tisha B'av to develop proactive Jewish nationalism. Internalize Jewish Pride, Accountability and Proactivity.
Have a meaningful fast.

Ha'Sharsheret
Yesterday, I participated in the human chain that linked Gush Katif, in Aza, to Jerusalem.
It was nice.
Nearly 200,000 Jews gathered on the roadways unanimously denouncing the prime ministers decision to give Jewish Land to Arab terrorists. People prayed, cheered and joined hands for the singing of Hatikvah. Like I said it was a nice.
Unfortunately, for many, that is all it will amount to—a nice experience. Many surely left the conviction they brought with them by the roadside.
Next time a similar event takes place, observe the attitudes of the good people in attendance. Hear them describe the foolishness of withdrawal, how the Knesset betrays the Jewish Birthright, and most of all hear their frustration. After its over listen to the promoters of the activity discuss its success. Then pay careful attention to the way those same people vote in the next election. Watch them vote for the very same parties that caused them to link hands across Israel and protest against the prime minister—who they voted into power.
It is a fact that the people of Yesh--Yehuda, Shomron and Aza--came out strong for the Likud party in the last election. The people of Yesha gave strong support to the very party that would later decide to give 8,000 of their homes away, while placing the remainder of them in a wire and concrete playpen with Jew hating Jihadian's.
Shame on Yesha.
The people of Yesha must take responsibility for this poor decision so that similar failures can be prevented in the future. They can do this by examining how the pre-incident indicators—particularity, the attitudes and statements—conveyed by Ariel Sharon throughout last year's election illustrated the general predictability of his current policies.
Many people would argue with this criticism. Many would give excuses disguised as reasons for the pathetic voting habits of the Jewish people in the state of Israel. But, those simply remain sad justifications for irresponsible decision-making.
So remember, demonstrations, human chains and marches are very nice and good. But, they are not ends in themselves and they don't solve our countries problems.
What does solve problems is having the kind of integrity that fosters solid Jewish decision-making. What will solve many of our problems is changing the way we vote and the considerations we make when choosing a leader. These ideals will also enhance the utility and meaning of public demonstration.
