An ingenious example of speech and politics occurred recently in the United Nations Assembly and made the world community smile.
A representative from Israel
began: "Before beginning my talk I want to tell you something about Moses."
"When he struck the rock and it brought forth water, he thought, 'What a good opportunity to have a bath!' He then removed all his clothes, put them aside on the rock and entered the water. When he got out and wanted to dress, his clothes had vanished.
A Palestinian had stolen them."
The Palestinian representative jumped up furiously and shouted, "What are you talking about? The Arab-Palestinians weren't there then."

The Israeli representative smiled and said, "And now that we have made that clear, I will begin my speech...."

If Mahmmoud Abbas the leader of the Arab PA really and genuinely proceeded to make peace with Israel, it will not happen.

Peace does not depend on Mahmmoud Abbas because we are not dealing with an "Arab/Palestinian-Israeli" conflict — not that he represents all, or even most, of the "Arab/Palestinians" anyway.

There is reason why Mahmmoud Abbas has prevented elections for the past five years since his term officially expired.

This is not only an "Arab/Palestinian-Israeli" conflict; it is not even an "Arab-Israeli" conflict, as it used to be called. Israel's deadliest enemy is The Islamic Republic of Iran, and the Iranians are not even Arabs, let alone, "Arab/Palestinians". Why do they want to annihilate Israel? The answer is that the sacred doctrines of Islam, as found in the Koran and the sayings of Muhammad, require Muslims to make war against the Jews and either subjugate them to Islam rule, or to kill them. Just like the Arabs did in Medina about 1500 years ago and other Arab countries, including in the Land of Israel during Arab/Muslim occupation. The Hamas Charter makes this perfectly clear. Therefore, we are not dealing with a territorial conflict which can be resolved by drawing new lines on old maps. The "rebuilt Jewish communities and the new Jewish communities" have nothing to do with the conflict which started long before there were any new Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria and would continue even if the Jewish communities in Judea and Samaria disappeared tomorrow. The only way to understand the conflict is to recognize that we are dealing with an Islamic holy war (jihad) against the Jews (and against anyone who is not Muslim). Not only Mahmmoud Abbas and his associates, but the entire Muslim world refuses to recognize Israel's right to exist because their religion prohibits such recognition. This is the root of the conflict!

An Arab recognition of Israel on a peace a paper has no meaning; they violate it and ignore it. Their religion permits them to lie and deceive anyone in order to accomplish their Islamic goal.

Israel vacated Gaza in 2005 against substantial opposition by a large part of the people in Israel and elsewhere. The result is not a hard working entity trying to build an economy and improving the lives of their people, but a radical terrorist entity that subjugates its people to a terrorist regime and puts its people in mortal danger by sending thousands of rockets into Israel, forcing Israel to defend its people and respond to attacks. No matter what appeasement or concessions Israel would give, it would not bring about peace or even the cessation of hostilities.

In view of the catastrophic results in Gaza after Israel provided them with the opportunity to establish a self rule, and the resulting, tunnels, terrorist’s attacks, kidnapping and thousands of rockets launched against Israel.

No sane nation or government or people in the world would contemplate repeating the same mistake and conceding to place another terrorist entity in Judea and Samaria. That would be a national suicide by Israel and a dereliction of duty by the government of Israel.

Moreover, the current conditions in Judea and Samaria in Arab PA controlled territory is a major source of terror or violence which compromises Israel’s safety and security.

Since The Oslo Accord – (This is now null and void). Over 300,000 new Arabs have come into Judea and Samaria.

The option for Israel today after over 65 years of trying to find a genuine partner for peace and not only failing and making the situation worse, with suicide bombing, kidnapping, car ramming, stabbing, babies throat slashed, stone throwing, butchering Israelis who accidentally venture into Arab PA administered territory. Thus, it is putting our/your nation and the people of Israel in greater danger, reduced safety and security.

It is time to seriously implement other avenues to secure the safety and security of the people in The Land of Israel.

Israel must stand its ground. All the territory west of the Jordan River must be under Israel’s sovereignty. Under international law, treaties and agreements it is Israel’s territory. No misleading propaganda, deceptions, subterfuge and twisted unsubstantiated legal maneuvers will suffice.

Any Arab who is willing to abide by the rule of law of the State of Israel and is not a terrorist or criminal may stay, otherwise must leave Judea and Samaria completely.

Those Arabs or non-Israelis who wish to leave or must leave can relocate to Jordan, Gaza or to the homes and the over 120,000 sq. km. of land the Arabs confiscated from the million Jewish families they terrorized and expelled from their countries and most of them were resettled in The Land of Israel.

No Jew has the right to yield the rights of the Jewish People in Israel -
David Ben Gurion 
(David Ben-Gurion was the first Prime Minister of Israel and widely hailed as the State's main founder).
“No Jew is entitled to give up the right of establishing [i.e. settling] the Jewish Nation in all of the Land of Israel. No Jewish body has such power. Not even all the Jews alive today [i.e. the entire Jewish People] have the power to cede any part of the country or homeland whatsoever.

This is a right vouchsafed (granted) or reserved for the Jewish Nation throughout all generations. This right cannot be lost or expropriated under any condition or circumstance. Even if at some particular time, there are those who declare that they are relinquishing this right, they have no power nor competence to deprive coming generations of this right. The Jewish nation is neither bound nor governed by such a waiver or renunciation. Our right to the whole of this country is valid, in force and endures forever. And until the Final Redemption has come, we will not budge from this historic right.”
BEN-GURION’S DECLARATION ON THE EXCLUSIVE AND INALIENABLE JEWISH RIGHT TO THE WHOLE OF
THE LAND OF ISRAEL:
at the Basle Session of the 20th Zionist Congress at Zurich(1937)

No Jew has the right to yield the rights of the Jewish People in Israel -
David Ben Gurion

(David Ben-Gurion was the first Prime Minister of Israel and widely hailed as the State's main founder).

"No Jew has the right to yield the rights of the Jewish People in Israel.
No Jew has the authority to do so.
No Jewish body has the authority to do so.
Not even the entire Jewish People alive today has the right to yield any part of Israel.
It is the right of the Jewish People over the generations, a right that under
no conditions can be cancelled.
Even if Jews during a specific period proclaim they are relinquishing this right, they have neither the power nor the authority to deny it to future generations.
No concession of this type is binding or obligates the Jewish People. Our right to the country - the entire country - exists as an eternal right, and we shall not yield this historic right until its full and complete redemption is realized."

(David Ben Gurion, Zionist Congress, Basel, Switzerland, 1937.)

"No country in the world exists today by virtue of its 'right'.
All countries exist today by virtue of their ability to defend themselves against those who seek their destruction.

United States is "occupied" territory - Not Jerusalem or Judea and Samaria (The whole territory of the Historical Land of Israel)

Washington, D.C., New York City, Chicago, Los Angeles, etc is far more of an "occupied" capital or territory than Jerusalem (Jerusalem and Judea and Samaria have thousands of years of Jewish history and habitation).

Europeans after creating new settlements, conquered an entire continent of North America, annihilated the natives, extracted its natural resources, kicked out the Mexicans and called it "America," claiming first “Philadelphia” and afterwards, the city of Washington as its capital.

Over six hundred thousand people died in the American Civil War that prevented the South from seceding and breaking apart the United States. How many people died when Berlin was divided until 1989 when communism was disintegrating, and again now Berlin is unified. The same applies to many of the Eastern European countries who were occupied by Russia and when the USSR was dissolved when the Berlin wall was knocked down they all abandoned communism between 1990-93 and returned to its own totally independent sovereignty.

As regards the rest of the world, Jerusalem is one of the oldest capitals in the world, and it belongs to the Jewish people, it was never a Capital of any other nation.

The world does not recognize Jerusalem as the Jewish capital, because the world does not recognize the right of Jews to exist. Those liberal Jews in USA and Europe and elsewhere who pander to the non-Jews by endorsing views that deny or compromise the Jewish sovereignty over The Historical Land of Israel and hoping that they would be "acceptable" are deluding themselves, they live in fantasy world, not reality. It did not help them with Nazi Germany who exterminated over 6 million Jews, men, women and children; or in the past 2,500 years in the Diaspora, when the Jews were persecuted, tortured, murdered and discriminated and it will not help them today.

After WWI the Arabs/Muslims were allocated and received over 12 million sq. km. with a wealth of oil reserves and following in Napoleon intent in 1799 to reconstitute the Jewish National Home in its former historical territory. The British in 1917 issued the Balfour Declaration that emulated Napoleon’s intent and The victorious Supreme Allied Powers incorporated the Balfour Declaration having the force of International law. Thus, the Jewish people were allocated 120,000 sq. km. of their historical territory. Today they have only about 21,000 sq. km., but the Arabs/Muslims and the world nations begrudge even that small peace of our Jewish historical territory. To add insult to injury, they joined the U.N. in issuing a resolution (non-binding with no legal standing) that the Jewish historical territory including Jerusalem has no Jewish connection. Which is absurd, and it only exposes the UN, as a puppet of Israel’s enemies and not as an organization that its charter is to promote peace and harmony among nations.

The world nations stood idle and silent while The Arabs/Muslims terrorized, murdered and expelled over a million Jewish families with their children and confiscated all their assets, including personal property, businesses, homes and over 120,000 sq. km. of land. Real Estate which the Jewish people had owned for over 2,400 years (valued in the trillions of dollars); where were the world nations cries of protest and demand for justice and the return of Jewish Homes and Real Estate then and where are they now?

Most of the expelled Jewish families from Arab/Muslim countries were resettled in The Land of Israel, and today comprise over half the population.  The European nations had better refrain from demanding that the Jewish people in Israel should give up their historical land to the Arabs/Muslims; since the European nations have taken over the Jewish assets, personal property (Gold, Silver, Artifacts, etc.), businesses, homes and Real Estate and many of those Jewish people and their descendants and heirs were also resettled in The Historical Land of Israel.

We the Jewish people returned to the occupied and desolate Land of Israel in the 1800’s and joined our Jewish brethren to re-blossom, revitalize and turn it into green pastures, with a new great economic infrastructure, industry and housing, after much toil and hard work and with the help infusion of capital and resources by our brethren in the Diaspora.

We, The Jewish People, are proud and thankful to have back our historic sovereign Jewish country with an Army that can defend itself properly and in many cases Jews around the world.

We the Jewish People will not surrender our land to nobody. We should be thankful to the almighty that we are in a similar position today as we were during the time of King David.

The world as whole needs Israel and The Jewish People, more than the Jewish people need the world.

History shows every nation or society that let the Jewish people thrive, prosper and flourish, also thrived and flourished.

When a nation or society harassed, terrorized, murdered and discriminated against the Jewish people in their country, the country declined and its power and economy diminished greatly, if not disappeared altogether.

Today's time is not like the Spanish Inquisition or the Bolshevik era when Jews were persecuted and murdered or Nazi Germany when Jews tried to escape Nazi extermination Camps, they had nowhere to go for sanctuary. Even The Jewish Land of Israel aka Palestine allocated by The Supreme Allied Powers under international agreements to the Jews after WWI, was illegally blocked by the British, which caused many Jewish people to die.

Today the Jewish people have the sovereign State Israel, with its strong defense, advanced technology and Medical innovations that the whole world relies on.

May we be granted the honor we have in fact earned to live and see the rebuilding of The Jewish Temple in its previous holy site on Temple Mount also known as Mount Moriah.
