Separation or Chaos? Life or Collapse?
Manhigut Yehudit--The Jewish Leadership Movement ^ | 6/21/'07 | Manhigut Yehudit--The Jewish Leadership Movement

The State of Israel has entered a sort of values vertigo. The heavens are the earth, the earth is the heavens, good is evil and evil is good. The first obvious expression of this vertigo was Rabin's handshake with Arafat on the White House lawn. It blurred the distinction between friend and foe, good and evil and justice and depravity.

"Behold, I have set before you today life and goodness, and death and evil." (Deuteronomy 30:15)

There is good and there is evil -- and not as the paganistic post-modernism would have us believe. There is life and there is death.

Life is created by separation. The cell divides, differentiates and develops. The primordial default is death and confusion. In the beginning, there was chaos and disorder and darkness on the face of the abyss. Then the Creator of life began to make separations. Between light and darkness, between the sea and the dry land, between men and women and between the nations of the world and the Jewish People.

Life is not static. In order to preserve life, we must always invest energy in making separations. Every mother knows that the natural condition of the house is "a mess" and how much energy must be invested on a constant basis to preserve the separation that transforms the mess into a living and functioning household. Death pulls us inexorably toward its depths. Materials that are not separated will mix together. If we want to keep them alive, we must invest energy to separate them. Chaos and disorder, the blurring of distinctions, the pagan enticement to give in to the whirlpool that draws the world down to its death -- are all forces that the Nation of Israel must face.

These forces of death always wrap themselves in an enlightened and preening cloak. They present themselves as the pure beauty of life. They speak in the name of order and civilization. But in truth, they serve chaos and disorder, darkness and death.

"Why did you insist on ruling that two men constitute a family?" Chief Justice Barak was asked. "If the homosexual partner is eligible for compensation, you could have awarded it to him on a regular contractual basis. Why mix laws of matrimony into the ruling?" In typical dictatorial fashion, Chief Justice Barak felt no need to explain. It is unlikely that he himself understands the forces that motivate him. But in essence, he used all the dictatorial tools that he had created in order to foster confusion. Confusion of values, confusion of sexual identity, confusion of the family unit, confusion of our national identity, confusion of our territorial borders, confusion of separation and return to chaos, disorder and death.

The chaos and confusion of good and evil into which Israel has plunged have a profound affect on our lives and well-being. Over the past week, we have seen the man most responsible for the dangerous security situation in Israel's north appointed to be Israel's Defense Minister. We have seen the man most responsible for Israel's deathly descent into the depths of Oslo elected to be Israel's President -- on the very day that his entire fantasy collapsed in Gaza. And we have seen the courts and police force a planned abomination parade in Jerusalem down our collective Jewish throat.

The solution to this disastrous state of affairs is obvious. The State of the Jews must become the Jewish State that it was destined to be. Manhigut Yehudit is working hard to achieve that goal.

The Late Rabbi Me'ir Kahana' (zt"l; Hy"d) once said that the purpose of the Jew in this world is to separate all morally "gray areas" into simple, black-and-white moral choices. This havdalah (separation) is integral to HaShem's plan for the world since He Himself engaged in separation both in Creation and in choosing Israel as His People.

Unfortunately, the image of the Jewish People in the popular mind is the exact opposite of this (as it is with so many other issues as well). Thank G-d people like Manhigut Yehudit in Israel and David Klinghoffer in the United States, are speaking out and trying to restore `Am Yisra'el's original, authentic mission and image!

Obviously, Israel suffers from the same kind of moral, intellectual, cultural, political, and strategic morass that afflicts the United States and Europistan.

This situaltion does not bode well for the future of true liberty. True liberty recognizes that there exists boundaries, and these boundaries protect the rights of the people. The political, cultural, and academic elites have confused chaos with liberty, and chaos is the handmaiden of tyranny.

The final generation before the Redemption will “have the face of a dog” (i.e. be morally bankrupt, cowardly, etc.). I’d say we have gone a long way toward qualifying for that - at least at the top. Peres exemplifies that - he’s a traitor if ever there was one. Oslo was his deal, one that he surprised Rabin with (not that Rabin was the greatest, either, but he was snookered on that one).

I can’t wait for the Winograd Commission’s final report in a couple of months - maybe then FoOlmert will be forced out. Of course, if Lamo Livni succeeds him there won’t be any improvement. Israel needs to riot, to completely shut down in order to force the Knesset to call for new elections. This cancer at the top MUST be forced out.

Can anyone explain to me the messed up system that constitutes Israel’s judiciary? Who appoints these unaccountable leftists to the Supreme Court? Can they be impeached or otherwise removed? Why do they have such incredible power over political and military matters? Most of all, why does the Israeli public put up with such a corrupt system?

I'm as in the dark as you are about that one!
