Olmert's Leaving...but Hold the Celebrations


July 30, 2008...

Before Israelis celebrate the impending exit of the inept and corrupt Ehud Olmert from the Prime Minister's chair, it should be understood that there will be no real change in Israel until there is a leader who will guide Israel with Jewish values and will put the best interests of the Jewish People ahead of their own fortunes. Manhigut Yehudit guarantees that it makes no difference if Tzipi Livni or Shaul Mofaz head Kadima and then sit in the Prime Minister's office, as both of these pretenders have clearly demonstrated their lack of commitment to any ideology except their political advancement.

In fact, the situation may go from very, very bad to worst. Olmert was unable (due to the multitude of corruption charges against him) to carry out further Israeli concessions. However, Livni or Mofaz - by benefit of only being ideologically and not financially corrupt - may have the political capital to continue the so-called "peace" process which only serves to tear at the heart of the Jewish people by giving away our Divinely-given land. This process only serves to weaken the belief in the righteousness of our cause by Jews worldwide.

It is impossible for Israel to survive as a Jewish Nation when the real war being fought is against Jewish identity. It is equally impossible to survive with policies of appeasement and "painful concessions."

The hope for Likud (and for Israel) lies in the deputy Likud leader Moshe Feiglin, who will not give away the precious Land of Israel. Feiglin is the real hope for Israeli's who need an honest, moral leader who will act in the best interests of Israel and the Jewish People and not as a puppet for the nations.
