'Now is the time to annex Judea and Samaria'
Arutz Sheva ^ | 1/27/17 | Ido Ben Porat

Posted on 01/27/2017 6:11:18 AM PST by Lera

Advocates for the Land of Israel are lobbying the Likud party ahead of Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's February trip to Washington DC to meet with newly inaugurated President Donald J. Trump.

Activists from the Women In Green, a pro-Israel organization which supports the application of Israeli law over Judea and Samaria, canvassed among lawmakers and party leaders at this week's conference of Likud members in Eilat, dubbed the "Likudiada".

Women in Green co-chair Nadia Matar spoke with Arutz Sheva at the Likudiada regarding the Prime Minister's upcoming trip to Washington, and the growing movement to apply Israeli sovereignty over Judea and Samaria.

"These are very crucial days," said Matar. "We have the new Trump administration; we have, unfortunately, Amona and Ofra, which are God forbid, [slated to be] destroyed... [and] we must have the Prime Minister get his strength before his [planned February] trip that the people of Israel want sovereignty. The people of Israel expect our Prime Minister not to ask for a little bit, for a few crumbs, but to ask and say what Israel wants. Israel wants to dream big. Israel wants Eretz Yisrael."

Earlier this month, Land of Israel Lobby Chairman Yoav Kish (Likud) proposed a bill to annex Maaleh Adumim, the third largest Israeli community in Judea and Samaria.

According to the Torah, Jubilee only applies when the Jewish people live in the land of Israel according to their tribes.

With the exile of the tribes of Reuben, Gad, and Manasseh (about 600 BCE), Jubilee has not been applicable.

See:

Instead of an abstruse, open for interpretation, endless debate about what Bible and Torah writings might have meant thousands of years ago, could we just talk about the consequences of today’s political choices?

OK. I agree, war doesn’t end until your enemy says so.

ISIS has attacked Israel several times. Israel knows right where they are. Israel has the most powerful military in the region.

Why hasn’t Israel attacked ISIS?

In the next war, I’m afraid Israel will be attacked with weapons far more devastating than anything she has faced in the past. Israel, I believe, will survive, but only because of a Divine intervention.

They were told to back off by the USA, and ISIS so far is a minimal threat to Israel.

“...Jubilee only applies when the Jewish people...”

Yovel (Jubilee) is whatever those from other faiths and other nations say it is!

Over your head???

The jubilee applied in 1917, in 1967, and it will apply in 2017.

This is what the purpose of the jubilee is. Everything in Torah is ultimately about the next 7 1/2 years, as it all repeats until all things are accomplished.

You’re “of another faith” than that presented at Sinai, since you follow the man made nonsense of the Pharisees instead of Torah.

ISIS is in a part of the land that has not yet been given to Israel. (read Joshua)

That is likely to change soon.

True, presently.

They are still in the process of trying to create themselves, and without Obama to hold their hand things will be different.

What he should have said is that the IDF wouldn’t stop until the enemy had regime change.

The Peoples’ Front of Judea and The Judean Peoples’ Front support this.

Will they allow everyone who lives in Judea and Samaria equal rights with everyone else who lives in Israel?

History says they will. Though not recognized by most of the world Israel has annexed "East" Jerusalem and the Golan Heights. Arab residents living there were offered Israeli citizenship. Those who refused to accept it were made permanent residents. The citizenship offer remains to this day, in case some of those who chose residency change their mind.

If Israel want's it they should have done it once it was clear peace couldn't be reached through negotiations, probably during the Bush years. So this would be a good time. Whether they want all of it is a different question, but it would be a good time to determine where they want to draw the lines and begin annexations. The people who go nuts at the thought of any Israel between river and sea will always go nuts.

Israel should do that if they are prepared to defeat their enemies.

Trump will not bring peace to the Middle East. Trump cannot bring peace to the Middle East. Only Israel and the Palestinians can do that. And as long as the goal of one is the complete destruction of the other then that isn't going to happen.

If by some fluke peace breaks out between Israel and the PA tomorrow, peace will not be brought to the middle east. The conflicts are far more widespread than that. It's been to the benefit of governments in the region to pin things on 6 million Jews vs 5 million or so Arabs in that small swath of territory, half of it highly productive. But the conflicts go far beyond that regionally. Heck, I'll speculate within a year the number of refugees in the region and Europe will exceed the entire population of Israel. If it doesn't already.

Note my post 56. They’ve offered citizenship in the past in areas they’ve annexed. Areas they’ve simply left, the Sinai and Gaza, of course they haven’t. Another reason Israel may well decide not to keep all of Judea and Samaria.
