Egyptian Riots Part II

Egypt is erupting again. As I mentioned before in my posts, Egypt has a very long way until it could find stability. Muslim Brotherhood (MB) is high-jacking the revolution just like the Iranian Islamists high-jacked Iranian Revolution. Egyptian opposition is trying to avoid that; however the chances of that happening are very slim if not close to none. The reason is quite simple: Mursi and MB are supported by majority of the Egyptians. There is no question about it. The opposition is trying to portray it otherwise but when it comes to Islam and political freedom, regular Egyptians would choose the religion. It is in their culture and until they live under the Islamic Rule, they will not change that mentality. MB and Mursi lied to Egyptians. They said all the right things before they grasp any power and once they came to power, they started making changes. They created this sorry excuse for a Constitution and they shoved it down the oppositions’ throat. Their main agenda is an Islamic Rule. Islamic Rule, by its true nature, is in direct contradiction to Democracy, individual rights, and of course various freedoms such as Free Speech. An Islamic Court could easily mark anything they do not agree with as blasphemy and hand down executions. If anybody has any doubt or would like to challenge me on this issue, don’t bother. Just look about couple of countries over in the region for a country called Iran. They just executed two people for robbery that did not result in death or sever bodily harm.
MB and Mursi are also connecting with other Islamic countries in the region specifically Iran. It is an uneasy development for the Opposition and of course Israel. Egyptian Opposition is worried because they think MB is going through Iranian Handbook on how to high jack a revolution and removing and killing the opposition with a straight face just like Iranian government did in the early 1980s. Israel is worried because Egypt could simply turn into a supply rout with the support of Egyptian government for terrorist activities in Gaza Strip. Israel desperately needs Egyptian cooperation on this matter.
At the end, Egyptians will be the ultimate victim of MB and their agenda for the region. It could only get worse before it gets better for the Egyptians. However, I honestly doubt that MB or Mursi are about to lose power. Whether they would give-in to Opposition demands and guarantee individual rights, is another story. However, MB and Mursi have Taghieh (which is Islamic Law on lying when it comes to good of Islam) and they could always start lying. Whether they would follow through with fulfilling the promise is another story. So far, they have used Taghieh and they have not fulfilled anything.

Death Penalty in Iran

This picture is very painful to see. The guy is no saint by any argument. However, his crime is nowhere to be executed for it. Personally, I am anti Death Penalty. I do not believe that the Court or Justice system has the ability or the right to take someone’s life away. The Justice System does have the right to take someone’s freedom but ending a life is not a power that any system should possess. Unfortunately, Death Penalty is still legal in this country, but there are countries such as Iran who are practicing Death Penalty on daily basis. I could only hope for a day where Death Penalty is abolished globally. We are on the right path and I hope it happens sooner than later.

Denying Jewish History with Straight Face

Israeli election is in full force. There is no question about it. What boiled my blood is this fake bogus outrage by the leaders of the best well-known terrorist organizations of Palestinian people. I am talking about Hamas and PLO (together) who have been outraged by Prime Minister’s act. The act that they are outraged about is the fact Netanyahu decided to visit the Kotel after he casts his vote. Really??!! Are Palestinian leadership truly claiming that Kotel belongs to them? Or are they denying Israel’s and Jewish history? I put my money on the second question to be the answer for this outrage. These people are so vicious in their views that they are denying Jewish history with straight face. And the world wants Israel and Jews to make peace with these animals? Yes I called them animals because they are purposely trying to remove over 3000 years of religion because they simply do not want it to be there. They could use these fake outrage all they want, but Jerusalem is the eternal capital of the Jewish people all around the world. Kotel is the main sanctuary for the Jews that will never be compromised. If they are outraged by this, then it shows that they are not serious about the prospect of peace. The reason is quite simple, if you cannot respect the history and claim of Jewish people to this land, there is no way in hell the Jewish people will respect you or your people or your culture. If you are sworn to destroy the Jewish people and their history, then you are bound to be destroyed by them. Why? The answer is quite clear: it is called history! I understand the Palestinian leadership has a very hard time coming to terms with history and what has happened. They have also desperately tried to re-write history from facts to fictions; but if they look closer, they will understand that their plan will not work. Abbas wrote his thesis on Holocaust Denial theories. What else do you expect from these so called leaders? And the dumbest part is that the global opinion considers him to be a moderate. Their only results for Palestinian people have been nothing but full blown disaster and as always they try to close their eyes to reality and history. Now, I will wrap this post with this quote from this terrorist leader to show their pure stupidity.

"Netanyahu is trying to gain more Israeli votes on Election Day by provoking the Muslims and soiling the holy sites," a top Hamas figure said. The Islamist group also called for an uprising in the West Bank as a result of the "recurrent provocations."

Reuniting Brothers and Sisters after 2700 Years

When I read this, I literally had tears in my eyes. After 27 Centuries (2700 years), another Jewish tribe has been discovered and this new discovered tribe has been re-united with other Israeli tribes. The tribe is tribe of Menasheh. One of the saddest parts of Israelites history is disappearance of other ten tribes. This makes us all feel that we are not lost and we still have brothers and sisters in other parts of the world. This is like reuniting brothers and sisters who haven’t seen each other for 2700 years. It is incredible that after 2700 years that we still have reuniting days like today. Here is the article from JersualmPost.com

Israel welcomes 2,000th Bnei Menashe oleh from India
This has been my peoples' dream for thousands of years," says 18-year-old Mirna Singsit upon her arrival.
Israel welcomed its 2,000th member of the Bnei Menashe community on Thursday, when a flight carrying 53 of the tribe members from the state of Manipur in Northeast India touched down at Tel Aviv's Ben-Gurion Airport.
The Bnei Menashe claim descent from one of the Ten Lost Tribes of Israel, sent into exile for more than 27 centuries. The community continued to practice Judaism by observing the Sabbath and keeping kosher.
The community today numbers around 7,000 and resides in India's north-eastern border states of Manipur and Mizoram. There are 1,725 Bnei Menashe currently in Israel. Most of the Bnei Menashe community reside in Acre and Migdal Haemek in the north of Israel.
"I'm so very happy right now," said an 18-year-old Mirna Singsit, who was presented with a certificate acknowledging her as the 2,000th Bnei Menashe Oleh. "Not only has this been my dream since I was born, but it has been my peoples' dream for thousands of years."
Singsit came to Israel with her parents and three brothers but left behind a grandparent, four uncles and two aunts. She hopes to continue her education in Israel studying for her Bachelors degree in political science. But she hopes to live in Jerusalem, "the Holiest place on earth," she said.
After a five year hiatus, the Bnei Menashe aliya program was restarted after a unanimous decision by the Israeli cabinet last October.
The aliya program was frozen in 2007 by the Olmert government after members of the cabinet, in particular interior minister Meir Sheetrit, opposed it.
Over the past month, immigrants came on five flights facilitated by Shavei Israel, a non-profit organization with the aim of strengthening ties with Jewish descendents around the world.
"This is an emotional day for all of us," said Shavei Israel chairman Michael Freund. "But we will not rest until all the remaining Bnei Menashe still in India are able to make aliya as well."
