LEE KAPLAN: HOW THE US STATE DEPARTMENT HAS BEEN UNDERMINING ISRAEL'S SECURITY AND EXISTENCE



We're behind Israel 100%
The following column is by a long-time researcher and activist trying to expose Muslim terror and those who enable their activities in Israel. 
 
Lee Kaplan is not afraid to point fingers, as long as he has the documentary evidence to back up his statements.  

His non-politically correct statements are always interesting, and his columns a source of new information.  But that's not all.  Pay close attention to what goes between the lines.
 
Another reason to listen to Lee Kaplan is that he has been right in his predictions before.  The ones he now lists on this column are chilling.

MORE ISRAELI RETREATS AND SURRENDERS - Surrender to White House and leftist demands for freeze of Jewish home construction, but more housing for Arabs - And surrendering to Jordan dictates over Jewish Temple Mount - Israeli politicians listening to a different drummer

GOVERNMENT SURRENDERS TO WHITE HOUSE AND ISRAELI LEFT DEMANDS IN HOUSING FOR ARABS BUT NOT FOR JEWS
 
More homes for Arabs in Jerusalem - While Jewish construction has been frozen for years, the government authorizes the construction of 2,500 units for Arabs
 
Shortly after Netanyahu freezes exact number of units for Jews, leftist group approves tenders for Arabs - sparking nationalist outrage.

Nationalist politicians and city councilmen reacted with shock to the announcement, after exactly 2,500 building tenders for Jewish neighborhoods in Jerusalem, Judea and Samaria were frozen Monday by Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu due to US threats of a "covert building freeze."  
 
Jerusalem City Councilman Aryeh King filed an administrative appeal with the Jerusalem District Court over the ruling - which he, along with many others, have seen as discriminatory - and threatened to quit the coalition in the event the tenders are not revoked.

ISRAELI POLITICIANS LISTENING TO A DIFFERENT DRUMMER - THE GAZA WAR CEASEFIRE - Disastrous policies and decisions and a puzzling mindset - September 3, 2014

This blog is starting a new series which will feature news from Israel, with particular focus on policies and decisions made by people in power that have detrimental impact on the country, and that cannot be explained by logic.  All we can say is that they demonstrate a serious flaw in the most basic sense of survival and often in a sense of self-respect as well.

The past 50 years or so have shocked Israelis by the utter lack of wisdom of political decisions.  They are not just ordinary political blunders.  They have profoundly and irreparably eroded Israel's sovereignty, security, and even the country's viability. 

Today's outline:
 
The dreadful economic cost and consequences for Israel of Gaza military blunders and ceasefire
 
The recent war in Gaza resulted in complete disaster for Israel.  More than 70 soldiers and civilians lost their lives - all for nothing.  No, let me rephrase that.  All for the empowerment of Palestinians. 
 
Mr Netanyahu produced a legal opinion which stated that a vote on the Gaza ceasefire was not necessary

If we turn our eyes away for a moment from the mesmerizing view of rubble on Gaza streets and human shield casualties, what we have is much more empowered Palestinian movement, with money and goodwill pouring over Gaza, while Israel having to cope with a war cost of $2.5 BILLION dollars and Jewish refugees from the Gaza Belt.
 
It gets worse.  Although the IDF claims to have destroyed all the terror tunnels, it has downsized its presence along the border with Gaza, to the point where indignant Israelis residents of that area are reluctant to return to their homes.  Hamas is still in power.  Still armed.  And making demands like a victor.
