a abomination of desecration

The present government of Israel is an abomination. It not only cares not one whit about the religion of the vast majority of its citizens, but it is actively hostile to it. It cuts funding to religious educational institutions, kicks the religious out of their homes at gunpoint, prosecutes any religious person who dares to complain, it is in a rush to give away holy sites in a fait accompli, etc., etc.

It is sickening - even if you aren't religious, AT LEAST defend your own citizens against the common avowed enemy and protect their property! AT LEAST get something in return for those things you are willing to give up! This government is apostate AND incompetent, and it must go, ASAP.

All good Jews of whatever denomination, as well as those non-Jews who are friendly toward Israel, should pray to G-d for help for the people of Israel. That, and contact the Israeli embassy or the nearest consulate. Maybe some heat from the Diaspora Jews and other supporters of Israel will change this government's direction.

I've started terming the Olmerde government the Weimar Republic of Israel, though the Weimar government wasn't as totally incompetent. Ben-Gurion, Golda, and the other founding parents of Israel are rolling in their graves at what is going on.

"All good Jews of whatever denomination, as well as those non-Jews who are friendly toward Israel, should pray to G-d for help for the people of Israel."

Prayers sent up daily. I'm going to check out the IFCJ and see if they have any petitions/etc. protesting the Olmerde goverment's total lack of disregard for the history and sanctity of the Temple Mount.
