Believe it or not, Ehud Olmert and his Kadima Party are still using the same, tired argument of some kind of demographic threat to justify surrendering to the Arabs’ demand that Judea and Samaria be cleansed of Jews.
Senior Kadima member Haim Ramon was confronted by a prominent leftist journalist this week regarding Olmert’s dangerous “convergence plan” - which will see Israel retreat and hide behind its security barrier.
“I want a division of the land. But I hold that Ehud Olmert’s…unilateral division plan is dangerous. It will lead to the establishment of an armed and hostile Hamas state that will undercut the stability of Israel, Jordan and the Middle East…It will inevitably lead to war,” argued Ha’aretz’s Ari Shavit.
Ramon’s response was to regurgitate the threat of an Arab demographic take over between the Jordan River and Mediterranean Sea if Israel does not sever Judea and Samaria from itself - a threat that has been decisively proven false.
Wake up Israel! There is no more danger of being overwhelmed demographically today than there was 50 years ago.
If you are really worried, then work on convincing your 6-12 million brethren still living abroad to come home. That would eliminate any imagined or real demographic threat once and for all.
Thank God the Jews who took part in Israel’s rebirth did not listen to such nonsense, or the Jewish state may still be just a dream.

Michael Freund is part of a group involved in bringing ‘lost Jews’ back home. They are put through a course and then ‘converted’ (back) to Judaism. There are thousands of these people. These include people in India as well as the anusim of the Southern U.S., Mexico and South America. But we have to get to these people first before the Muslims do!

I would love to come back home! I’m been keeping Torah all my life, but I can’t prove my Israeli heritage. I’ve looked into blood tests, my mother’s great grandfather’s name was Jacob Jacob Jacob ZumBrunnen (at the well), but I don’t have the “proof” the Israeli government will accept. So, right now, I’m stuck in the Diaspora longing for the land of my fathers.

David, my heart goes out to you. The Most High God knows who you are and where your heart is….it is in Israel with your people. Don’t get discouraged…always remember, Everything is on God’s timetable. Sometimes He makes us wait to purify our outcome. Be about your Father’s business where you are, and watch Him use you. Blessings will flow to you, through you, and God is honoring your sacrifice at this time. “In quietness and confidence shall be your strength.:
