Urgent: A Jewish Revolution Needed

feiglin votesSince the advent of Oslo, Israel has slowly but surely degenerated into a dictatorship. This became blatantly apparent during the days of the destruction of Gush Katif and Northern Shomron. Sharon was able to destroy the settlements and expel their Jews because the Left has found the way to run the country through the votes of the Right. The Likud voters did not want the expulsion. The ideological Right and the religious voters certainly did not. But in the Israeli "democracy" that is exactly what they got. The Likud votes were enslaved to the Left, the ideological Right's votes were and remain insignificant and the religious? They made sure that there would be no expulsions on Shabbat.

When there is no alternative, there are no demonstrations. Manhigut Yehudit's job is to create the alternative. At this point, we are wielding our considerable political power to take the wind out of the Annapolis sails. As we reported in previous updates, Manhigut Yehudit is acting to convene the Likud Central Committee that will declare that no Likud government will ever honor agreements on the division of Jerusalem. We also support other important campaigns, such as the petition initiated by Likud MK Yisrael Katz in which the Knesset members assert that they will not vote in favor of any changes in the Jerusalem Law.

It is important to remember, though, that unless the current dictatorship is replaced, it will find the ways to deal with minor details such as the will of the majority, the law or ethical governance. Gush Katif proves that point.

So what should the average frustrated, distressed, agitated, faithful person do about Jerusalem? There are those who will return to the familiar solutions. As we have already seen this week, the established right wing leadership will hold demonstrations. They cost huge amounts of money and are focused on certain goals -- but winning is not one of them.

The true solution is a Jewish revolution -- authentic Jewish leadership that believes in the Jewish destiny of the Nation of Israel in the Land of Israel. How can we achieve the Jewish revolution that we so sorely need? The long term answer is to create the basis for Moshe Feiglin to win the leadership of the Likud by registering for membership in the party.

But there is much more than that. It is crucial that the Jewish Nation understands the source of the problem; Israel's loss of Jewish direction. The solution is not to topple Olmert and replace him with Bibi. The solution is not to build higher fences or to bring more soldiers or police into Jerusalem. The solution is not to bring hundreds of thousands of pro-Jerusalem demonstrators into the streets, either. UNLESS those hundreds of thousands take to the streets with a truly revolutionary demand; to replace Israel's current, faithless and treacherous leaders with authentic Jewish leadership.

More and more people within the Likud and without are beginning to understand how vital authentic Jewish leadership is to Jewish survival. More and more people are seriously considering Moshe Feiglin as the man for the job. It is urgent to get the word out and create the Jewish leadership revolution. To paraphrase Rabbi Tarfon in the Ethics of our Fathers, "The entire job is not on your shoulders. But you certainly must do your part!"
