Rabbi Feldman’s Bar Mitzva speech – Inspiring

editor 10 April 2013

By Sheila Raviv.. When I heard this speech I had to share it with you all. It is truly inspiring.
I am proud to send you this Bar Mitzvah speech. It is both moving and inspiring and appropriate for both Yom haShoah and Yom HaAtzmaut – indeed for every day of our lives.

It begins with a few words in Russian and some the chuckling – continue to the end. I guarantee tears and believe every young person should hear his words. An amazing speech. (more…)

UK Textbook Wipes Israel Off the Map

editor 3 January 2013

By Samuel Westrop.. Why is the British Council, sponsored by the British Foreign Office, endorsing a textbook that wipes Israel off the map and indoctrinates students with anti-Western material? Ahmadinejad promised it. Now British textbooks are doing it. Israel has been wiped off the map by Garnet Education, an English-language teaching company in Britain, whose educational textbook ‘Skills in English Writing Level 1′, aimed at foreign students and immigrants to the UK, contains a map with “Occupied Palestine” in place of the Jewish State.

Lance Lambert’s Middle East Update, October 2012

editor 12 December 2012

This is Lance Lambert speaking, and this is my Update for October 2012. The Jewish year of 5772, or the Roman year of 2012,has been a very difficult year. Israel has lived, during that time in an almost continuous atmosphere of war predictions—the predicted war, always being rescheduled. The latest prediction was for the end of Sukkot, and the American Election on November the 6 ^th. This has now been rescheduled for spring of 2013, after Israel’s election. (more…)

The ingathering: Operation Dove to bring home last of Ethiopian Jews

editor 31 October 2012

By Ryan Jones.. Israel this week officially launched “Operation Dove” to bring home the last of Ethiopia’s Jews. The first flight in Operation Dove landed in Tel Aviv on Monday with 240 of Ethiopia’s “Falash Mura.”

The Falash Mura are part of an Ethiopian tribe that long went by the name of “Beta Israel” – the House of Israel. Sometime during the past two centuries, a large number of Beta Israel tribesmen converted to Christianity. For some the conversion was forced, for others adopting Christianity was the only way to gain full human rights. (more…)

Israel’s forgotten refugees (3-3)

editor 22 October 2012

By Elizabeth Blade.. Arab leaders consistently deny accusations that their nations’ mistreatment of Jews led to an exodus and the creation of a Jewish refugee problem in 1948. They regularly make a show of offering that those Jews who left return to their Arab homelands as compensation for any past misdeeds. Saeb Erekat, the Palestinian Authority’s chief negotiator, was quoted by the Palestinian news agency Maan as saying, “We are not against any Jew who wants to return to Morocco, Iraq, Libya, Egypt and elsewhere. I believe no Arab state rejects the Jewish right of returning to their native lands”. (more…)

Israel’s forgotten refugees (1-3)

editor 17 October 2012

By Elizabeth Blade.. An Israeli Foreign Ministry campaign, launched in September 2012, aimed at restoring “rights and justice” for Jewish refugees that fled Arab lands in the previous century, elicited harsh criticism from Palestinian leaders like Hanan Ashrawi, a member of the Palestine Liberation Organization’s (PLO) Executive Committee, who referred to the initiative as a ploy. “Jews who came to Israel are not refugees, because they left their homes voluntarily and under pressure from Zionist groups and the Jewish Agency,” she was quoted by the Jerusalem Post as saying, suggesting that the Foreign Ministry’s move was really meant to distract from the suffering of the Palestinians and block their recent attempts to obtain a non-member-state status at the United Nations (UN).

Zionism and Christian faith Part 6 (final)

Rev. Henk Poot 9 October 2012

The ‘Palestinians’

If you study the history of Zionism you will find that there was never the intention to take away the rights and dignity of the inhabitants of the land. In fact, the opposite is true. It is generally emphasized that they will bless the nations who are living and will live alongside Israel in the land. (more…)

Zionism and Christian faith Part 5

Rev. Henk Poot 2 October 2012

The Holy Land

It seems that to the extent that people do not view Zionism as an important part of the messianic redemption, they are also less concerned about the land. They can even be happy with partial possession of the land, although in principal not a favoured option, but rather a pragmatic one. (more…)

Zionism and Christian faith Part 4

Rev. Henk Poot 25 September 2012

National-Religious Zionism

Israel is different from all other nations. It was created and established by God Himself, called to worship Him, and to be a blessing to the rest of the world. That is the vision of the national-religious Zionists. Israel exists by the grace of God’s covenant and promises to them. The land of Israel is first and foremost God’s land, and it was given to His people as a gift for them to possess eternally. (more…)

Zionism and Christian faith Part 3

Rev. Henk Poot 18 September 2012

Cultural Zionism

Another main stream of Zionism, influenced by Ahad Ha’am, viewed the Jewish nation mainly as a cultural entity. The aim was the revival of the Jewish culture among the Jewish people. There were dangers in the Diaspora that threatened to undermine the identity of the Jewish people. (more…)
