The best way to save Gilad Shalit

By Yehuda Wegman

Article published in the Mekor Rishon 25.07 .08, translated from Hebrew by Meir Ben-Hayoun.

NDLT Yehuda Wegman is a colonel in reserve. It is one the few theorists Israeli defense system. He was responsible for eleven years to train company commanders and battalion commanders and was an instructor at the School of Command and Staff.

One of the reasons to demand the release of Gilad Shalit as soon as possible and in some the price is based on the precedent of the disappearance of Ron Arad. This comparison is baseless. Ron Arad has been neither seen nor heard, since he was ejected from his plane, so we could not bear the responsibility of his captivity an organization and a well-defined. For Gilad Shalit, is another matter. Shalit is being held by Hamas. This organization prides itself on keeping in captivity and provide for his needs. The two letters sent by Hamas Gilad to his family confirmed the sole responsibility of this organization and its leaders about the fate of the Israeli prisoner.

The way to prevent Hamas from subjecting Shalit what we want to warn those who compare his case to that of Ron Arad is very simple

The State of Israel should not give rise any ambiguity on two key issues to the attention of Ismail Haniyeh and the Hamas leadership. Firstly, Israel considers them fully responsible for Shalit's survival, its proper treatment and his health. Second, any attack against Shalit, or its disappearance would lead to the violent liquidation of Haniyeh and all the political apparatus of Hamas, as was the case with Sheikh Ahmed Yassin and Dr. Abdel Aziz Rantisi.

It is very surprising that a former head of Shin Bet (internal security services), Reserve General Ami Ayalon, will bring the voice of the similarity between the case where Shalit and Arad - which would require a mass release of murderers in exchange for a single soldier prisoner. Ami Ayalon, courageous fighter, distinguished himself from the highest mark of military valor for his role in the raid on the Green Island * in 1969. Is his vision of security would have been submerged by the tidal wave of populist slogan "bring the children to more quickly and at any price"

"Kol Israel" (and the site Guysen, audios) regularly counting days of captivity of Shalit. Does the metronome defeatist station Israeli public radio has was due to the hardness of the former Navy fighter commandos?

The Shalit's comrades have joined Ayalon and those who rush to have him released at any price. The Company soldiers Gilad did not demonstrate exceptional operational capability the fateful day when their comrade had been captured. Immediately after hanging up the uniform, they started a campaign compassionate hyper-publicized that led them straight to the Minister of Defence. We can assume that following the capture of Shalit, they have drawn lessons and have improved their operational efficiency. It would have been better if they are not greeted with full honors at the Ministry of Defence precisely in a context related to their greater operational fiasco.

In the absence of clear military standards and with the enthusiastic support of the media, those who have indirectly contributed to the success of the abduction of Shalit, were received by guests of Defense. It is therefore not surprising that the legs of those demobilized have done everything right in the office of Defense Minister Barak to the contribution conditions favorable to the abduction of soldiers created by him just before the second Lebanon war. After each

kidnapping Israeli thinking has become accustomed to not be limited to the terms of negotiations and exchange of prisoners instead invest in military operational aspects so as to find creative solutions that would of serious blow to the enemy. This conception of negotiations was unfortunate consequences inducing a defeatist attitude in the public and freezing military thinking.

When the government focuses only on trade horizons prisoners, it exempts the IDF's role to propose solutions to the problems of military daring abduction of Israeli soldiers. The exclusivity given to reflection as that in force today could never give rise to outcomes such as Operation Entebbe in 1976 or the abduction of Syrian officers in 1972, which allowed prisoners to recover our soldiers then Damascus.

IDF Why should contrive to find solutions to high risk if already Haim Ramon, who sends feelers Olmert, suggests that it will take "more flexibility in the criteria for releasing Palestinian prisoners, while the existing criteria have melted like snow in the sun after the previous prisoner exchanges.

The current Israeli government has a very slim chance of escape - a radical conceptual shift for everything related to the captivity of Shalit.

First, the Prime Minister will have to jettison any trading mentality that has been inoculated and is based on a misconception that Gilad is seeking a "child". It must refer to Gilad Shalit as a national hero, not just a record of compassion. It should be considered a combatant isolated in enemy territory that must be measured as best he can, as the heroes of previous generations of IDF. Such an approach will inspire those around him, if not to himself if not completely cut off from the outside world, the forces needed to fight to bring him back home without the exchange of cons Hundreds of killers whose release will generate no doubt the death of many Israelis.

And the media in all this? As the media are deprived of a magma column spine and any values, it is easily conceivable that they will adapt very quickly to this new standard.

Demonstrate in silence?
By Ben-Meir Hayoun

Dear Nissim Guetta

Below, I have hereunto set for your call event tonight.

Demonstrate in silence for the release of Gilad Shalit? And then what? What's more, while at the same time, a hundred yards from where you Eliezer Zis and organize the event this evening, an Arab on a backhoe was still killing a Jew and tried to kill several others? No, it does not the story of "vigil". The only kosher silent in such circumstances, it is the quiet that adapts to the muzzle of a pistol or an assault rifle, and again! I exaggerate? If the answer is yes, then you have not yet grasped the content of the national tragedy that we are experiencing, including the holding of Shalit is one aspect which certainly captures the imagination, but not worse. Jews, women, seniors, children, are regularly smash in Jerusalem by Arab bestiality and this has been eight long years and it never ends. We have not yet realized? And Arab Jerusalem, which contributed the majority of their votes to Hamas in elections for the AP, continue their cohabitation with us, take us into their taxis, to trade with us, to work with us to make care in hospitals, to touch the emoluments of Social Security, as if nothing had happened.

Manifesting "dignity in silence," so it is the response of income after 2000 years Jews to Zion?

Reminds me Jews who were going to die "with dignity" and "silence." There were even playing magnificent symphonies, the ultimate sublimation of execution of works of classical music, if you know what I do not mean?

No silence! It is the blood of Arab terrorism and its popular support they should require, in Jerusalem, Gaza, southern Liba - shedding the blood of Arab genocidal enemy afloat for revenge - yes! In revenge, because revenge on the enemies of Israel is a Jewish value supreme. We will say good morning to the end of the prayer for Psalm Shahri the day: "El Nekamot Hashem El Nekamot OFIA? Whoever supports the contrary, he goes to make a cassock and cap of a cap Vatican instead of the kippa.

Jewish blood is flowing regularly in Jerusalem. A mother threw her child of six months from the window of his car to save her before getting crushed itself. Our enemies we bring the mutilated bodies of our brave and we give in which killers near Jack the Ripper is a child choir. And all that is the watchword is to call in to express "silence" for the release of Gilad Shalit?

The only claim to express out loud, to scream and to shake the walls of the city government, the Knesset, and the Old City, to do stagger the seats which envelop stuffed the rear train leaders country, calling the Jewish vengeance without mercy. These are the Arab terrorists taken prisoner to be executed one by one regardless of the reason for their imprisonment. It's head impaled on Berghout to a utility pole. These are the homes of Arabs who advocate the eradication of our state and support the genocide thesis of terrorism in Jerusalem to make available free for the homeless and for new immigrants. The Arab masses in Israel mainly to identify our enemies and rejoice with joy from the victory parade in Beirut Samir Kountar - we have to oppress and expel them to the last without qualms.

For cons, the few Arab innocent of any open or discreet support to our enemies must be spared.

How do such measures desired by all and they can all get a chance to materialize if we dare not even articulate?

Only then will Gilad Shalit chance to come back healthy healthy home. Otherwise his release, he has not yet been executed God forbid, in terms of madness abdication, there are hundreds of Jews who were condemned to death, God forbid.

Nissim I know that you agree with me and almost absolute majority of francophones in Israel who are healthy in body and mind are too and are perhaps even more radical than me. But if you do not say these things in a clear voice, strong and loud, the silence of your event will be more explicit? Like me, you know very well not. So Now, tell me what is the real purpose of this event "silent"? A follow

Call Nissim Guetta
You can count on us and we rely primarily on you to bring Gilad Shalit ALIVE thank you and tonight Tuesday, July 22, 2008 at 19:30 precise

Israel against its becoming

For Manitou Rabbi Yehuda Leon Ashkenazi, zatsal

Article published in L'Arche, No. 439, April 1994, pp.20-23

Two major events have marked the past year. On the one hand the draft agreement agreed in Oslo between the present government of Israel and the PLO, on the other hand, even though difficult negotiations are developing to make it succeed, the announcement of the establishment of relations diplomatic ties between the Vatican and the State of Israel. Only time will tell the true extent and consequences Any change made to the history of Israel on both occasions. However, it is clear that in both cases, something irreversible has happened.

Israel speaks directly to an actual agreement with two entities, for various reasons, were supposed to represent the absolute challenge its very existence. On the one hand, indeed, the Catholic Church had always known as Israel itself, with its capital in Jerusalem religious as much as Rome, on the other, the PLO was supposed represent, the most radical claim of Islam in general and the Arab world in particular, the land of the Hebrews [1] with the same Jerusalem as holy city and political capital. But there the analogy must stop, because the stakes, near or far, are not similar. However, good spirits could detect between these two events a link that would not be simple coincidence: so Decourtray Bishop, Archbishop of Lyons, speaking of the agreement between the Vatican and Israel, says: "It could lead between good relations between Israelis and Palestinians. My hope is that peace in the Middle East [2] ... "A Jewish view, however, and from a biblical perspective, we note however that in practically the same time, Israel begin negotiations with the other two lineages Abraham, with one hand Esau, the brother of Jacob who was disputing the name of Israel, on the other hand, Ishmael who disputed the inheritance of the land of Abraham [3] . Anyway, it is clear that it is not necessary that the Jewish sense of the history of Israel - and many Israelis are in this case - To realize, however, that Israeli society has already conducted a fundamental review of what she had until then its identity project. And that, essentially in the order of its relations with the entire Jewish people. In other words, we are already back in the post-Zionist?

This is certainly the main topic that will occupy, now, and Israeli Jewish intellectuals in their attempts, never fully accomplished, to clarify the nature of what they have in common. Inheritance a common ancestral memory, hopes and values converge, an undeniable sense of familiarity in the sense of participation in the historical adventure of the same family, shows that despite the difference it inserts sociological this is the same people .... However, the cultural environment of rapidly changing pace. For the Diaspora - and that was the case originally for the founders of Israeli society - there is still a Christian environment. Even largely de-Christianized, Western humanism is one the Christian soul. For Israeli society, however, the direction that the current political commitment is a nesting increasingly evident in the "personality" Arab and Islamic world.

Now no one can predict the practical development of a company as dynamic as the Israeli society. It depends more obviously political options properly. No one knows what will be the results of future elections, and therefore the ins key positions of Education and Interior.

And indeed, the purpose of these reflections not at all reflect the extraordinary complexity of the fluid political and ideological Israel. But everything else, trying to highlight a number of trends, breaklines, which already promises from the beginning, but which reveal themselves with such intensity that since the events of the past year. In such a business, you can not hide his personal equation. And I do not deny that these two problems before, just as delicate as the other one, the relationship to Christianity and against Islam, my feeling is radically different. I plan as much in the long term, a regularization of our positive links with the Christian world, as I saw the incidents and the method of negotiations with the Arab world, including Syria and the PLO, with puzzlement and concern. I say maybe another time what would the price of profound peace with the Christian world and how the Jewish Diaspora must inevitably pay the price. I confine myself to a few remarks today on the consequences of current options vis-à-vis peace with the Arabs, regarding the cultural perspectives of Israeli society.

In fact, it is the nature of "Jewish" of the Jewish state. Leaving aside the debate is whether the State of Israel must be a "Jewish" state within the meaning of the term theocracy, or the state of the Jews, their religion is Judaism. I am among those who think that Herzl was primarily a project Jewish State [4] where they could take control of their destiny and political history. The history of mankind, and as a believer it means to me as Providence, made the Jewish state, or more exactly is in the process of doing. A mutation in which the subject identity is to transform Jewish identity Jewish identity found, can not be done in one instant magic. To understand what it is, and far more secular than religious Israeli intellectuals had understood, he must make the effort to distinguish between the sociopolitical sense of the word Jew, and his sense of cultural identity, spiritual and religious. In the sociopolitical sense, the Jew has always been a Hebrew of exile, indexed to the identity of foreign cities, in other words a "Judeo-someone-else". In this sense, all Israelis are certainly no pun intended, of Jewish origin. But for the vast majority of them, "Zionism" is to lead the Hebrew nation who would have nothing to do with socio-political status of Jews in exile.

It is from here that a serious problem, a problem that the draft agreement with the PLO, even in his philosophy, and reveals accuser. It turns out that the solidarity of members of a society under siege, the jubilation to meet, in Hebrew, among survivors of one hundred twenty exiles, had masked the fact that the motivations of the same Zionism was critically different. I identify four main arbitrarily schematized, all amalgams are possible at the individual, human being, as we know highly paradoxical.

First, Jews were Zionists who wanted to abandon Judaism as a religion and spirituality as if culture and history, together status of the Jew in exile. Their diagnosis was that even emancipation could not ensure their cultural survival, and that therefore he had to taken from Jews in Hebrew. This type of Israel is both the right and left of the political spectrum.

Secondly, those who wanted to regain Hebrew finally be fully and authentically Jewish, and not only hope to ever postponed implementation deadline.

Thirdly, those who reject Zionism of the Jewish state, because it is a state that was not founded by the Messiah, but living the Israeli life in their own way, for the privilege it accords to live in the Holy Land.

And then, ultimately, a number of Jews forever cosmopolitan, fluent in Hebrew of course, but are there because they are there, nothing more. Several of them also hold important positions in large institutions.

All this is the entire Israeli society maelstrom of change and who lives in the acceleration history is known. Now that company suddenly discovers she is in a position to have to experience the cultural life of a binational state in which culture will have to integrate Jewish values but also the Hebrew Arab-Islamic values. Those Israeli Arabs first and foremost, but also those of so-called Palestinian Arabs, who form a single set nationally, although they are distinguished sociologically. In Israel itself, this discovery will not long prevail. The real question is what will the reaction of the entire Jewish diaspora. Everything suggests that the apparent spiritual upheaval and ideological ensue. What form it takes, we can not already prejudged. But the debate is emerging traumatize many consciences.

And indeed, it is difficult, given the current state of things, which side would appear the instance of unanimity that could guarantee a minimum coherence of a society faced, without adequate preparation, to irreversible decisions for the future of his identity project. Many believe, and I'm one of them, it's absolutely a problem for Israel and the Diaspora. While we are the same people, it is also true that Israel's future played in a certain way, in every Jewish community. Are we already in the post-Zionist or, on the contrary, a new Zionism, that of maturity, it is dawning? And that the price of what schisms, which emergencies separation?

The classic pattern of our three criteria for identification, by the people, by the earth, the Torah, will always remain the basis of profound debate. However, until then, the question mark in all walks of roughly formulated as follows: which of these three sets must include the other two: which is supposed to define how sine qua non of genuine community, the other two to be reserved for the individual option?

Today, it seems that the equation must be renewed. Which of these three fights he is most urgent, which is the current fight for the survival of the three? I would say clearly the option of my political awareness. But before that, I want to say that I appreciate the consistency, if the current legitimacy, other options. The real problem is not who would be right in absolute terms: those that emphasize the People, those of the Torah or those of the Earth at any cost, the real problem is I think: Now, now, what is the fight he would be foolish to lose?

For two thousand years we've been busy as a people to survive and preserve knowledge and practice of Torah. I do not know if the heroism of these two fights has been sufficiently told. But it is clear that they have earned. At what cost of suffering, humiliation, dilution and sometimes distorted identity - also with great moments of true elevation above - each of us tells the story in its own way. But we have reached the end of this long march, as a people and existing holders of our heritage. Both battles have to be pursued. Anti-Semitism has not disappeared and the Torah is not acquired once and for all. These two struggles are still very necessary, but we know that we have won.

Meanwhile huge two thousand years, we were cut off from our land. Today is that this fight is current, and hopefully have sufficiently indicated that the challenge in my opinion, is not only a question of extent of territory and sovereignty. At stake is the future of our identity.
