Loyal Citizens in Danger
Yes, this sounds rather mellow dramatic, but it's true, very unfortunately, it is.
Just a few months ago, thousands of innocent Israeli citizens were thrown out of their homes. That was the "Disengagement" from Gush Katif and Northern Samaria. The vast majority are till in temporary "solutions," and now the government is preparing to throw out even more.
While the government was preparing for Disengagement, it kept warning of violence, civil war etc, but the poor families disappointed them. Instead of attacking the police and soldiers with weapons, they either resisted passively, left on their own two feet, or in some cases held valiantly onto the Land.
Now with Arik Sharon comatose and in Intensive Care, Olmert, his replacement is raising the tension and threats. He has declared "war" on a few innocent Jewish families in Chevron, an ancient city with a long history of Jewish residence. As part of this campaign, the Chief of Police is preparing the public for the use of live fire, meaning real weapons against the civilians.
What's most amazing is the silence. Only MK Dr. Arye Eldad, Moledet-National Union, has been reacting to the constant incitement.
Why isn't the world condemning the attacks against innocent citizens?
