Stop Complaining, Take Effective Action

One after the other, the speakers rose to eulogize Ido Zoldon, may G-d avenge his blood. Almost all of them spoke about the same thing; Jewish leadership for Israel. The most articulate was MK Effie Eitam; "We will establish new leadership for the Nation of Israel," Eitan proclaimed. It was clear to him and to all those present that belief based leadership is the solution to Israel's woes. Everybody seems to understand that Israel needs authentic Jewish leadership. But daily, frustrated and concerned Jews accusingly ask Manhigut Yehudit, "And what are you doing now to save Jerusalem?" Why aren't these people daily asking the right wing organizations why they are staging demonstrations instead of joining forces with those who are working on establishing alternative leadership? The truth is, that while most of the right wing public has internalized that it can expect nothing from neither Right nor Left, it by and large has not yet integrated the consciousness necessary to lead. Israel's Jewish majority and particularly the Orange Camp, has not yet accepted the fact that it must literally take the reigns. The rightists don't believe Olmert -- but are not willing to fill his shoes. They prefer Olmert 2 or Olmert 3. They prefer to remain in the demonstration rut, feverishly changing their right sock with their left sock and back again until the bitter end. What is Manhigut Yehudit doing today? Exactly what we did yesterday and what we will do tomorrow. We are focusing on creating the Jewish leadership alternative. Those people who ask what we are doing actually want to know how we are solving the problem within the familiar albeit failed parameters within which they feel comfortable. In other words, they want somebody to solve the problem without taking responsibility and without striving to lead. Our almost daily meetings with Likudniks, registration for the Likud and the progress along the muddy path that leads to leadership do not interest them. They want another spectacular demonstration and nothing that requires a major commitment. Manhigut Yehudit does not have a solution for those people. The Yesha Council or one of its sub-groups will certainly organize nice demonstrations for them. Who knows? Maybe it will even organize a march around the walls of Jerusalem just like the march around the fences of Kfar Maimon? There is no solution other than Jewish leadership for Israel. Our day to day efforts have been bearing fruits now, as the situation becomes more difficult and challenging. Our work to convince Likud members of the Jewish leadership alternative and the many people who had registered for the Likud through Manhigut Yehudit brought us almost one quarter of the votes in the recent primaries for chairman of the Likud. We are still working hard. With G-d's help, this constant effort will translate into Moshe Feiglin's high placement on the Likud Knesset list -- as a stepping stone to creating the Jewish leadership alternative.
