This is Justice???

By Moshe Feiglin

You shall do no unrighteousness in judgment; you shall not favor the poor, nor favor the mighty; but in righteousness you shall judge your neighbor.
(From this week's Torah portion, Kedoshim, Leviticus 19:15)

Would a court that would allow the Knesset to extend its term for eternity conform to the definition of justice as per the above Torah directive? Would it be acting righteously? Or would it be favoring the mighty at the expense of the weak?

Clearly, the "High" Court that is working hand-in-hand with Netanyahu to allow him to change the Likud constitution and to essentially eternalize the tenure of the entire Likud Central Committee is not a just court. Actually, it is no more than a gang of scoundrels who espouse a blatantly anti-Jewish agenda. Now this gang is helping Netanyahu to eliminate the leadership tool of Israel's National camp.

Why are they doing this? The reference point of the Anat Kam/Ha'aretz gang is not the Nation of Israel or those who have tied their fate to it. They do not see themselves as our brothers, as part of the Jewish Nation. On the contrary - the Jews are a burden on their backs. They have to somehow manage the Jewish "rabble", to control it and to rule over it against its will, using all sorts of tricks and shticks.

The High Court judges would have us think that next Thursday's Likud Central Committee vote is not over Jerusalem. They would have us think that it is nothing more than a secondary, technical issue - that elections for the new Likud Central Committee will be held three years after elections instead of one. In actuality though, Netanyahu's proposed amendment will ensure that internal Likud elections will no longer be held. If his amendment had been law, there would not have been Likud elections since 1973. In other words, Netanyahu's proposal will turn the Likud Central Committee into nothing more than a rubber stamp for his leftist policies and for the leftist "masters of the Land."

After he was elected with his false campaign promise that "the fate of Netzarim will be the same as the fate of Tel Aviv" Sharon was at least forthright about his intentions. He declared that he would destroy Gush Katif and then prepared to wage his political battles. Netanyahu and the High Court judges are working in the reverse order. They have not declared their true intentions. First, they will set the stage politically and then, when all the avenues to oppose their plans are shut tight, they will state their true intentions; the Mother of all Disengagements.

As of now, the large Jewish majority in Israel insists on deceiving itself. It seems to honestly believe that Netanyahu is standing firm against Obama and that we must strengthen him. Netanyahu, for his part, continues to make declarations about unified Jerusalem, while all those people slated for the next Expulsion defend him. When the Likud will no longer be able to oppose Netanyahu, the National camp will wake up and understand that it has been duped.
It is time to act now, before Netanyahu steals Jerusalem from the Jewish People!

As this is being written, ex-US ambassador to Israel, Martin Indyk, has verified on Israel Army Radio that the Likud is the only obstacle between Bibi and the internationalization of Jerusalem. Listen to this chilling 2:53 minute interview here.

If you are in Israel and speak Hebrew well, you can volunteer to contact Likud Central Committee members and convince them to vote against Netanyahu's proposal. Write to shaimalk@gmail.com.
