By Gil Ronen, INN Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu said at Sunday’s Cabinet session that police must enforce the law in Arab and other minority sectors just as they do in the Jewish sector. “There are not two states,” the Prime Minister said. “There is no state within a state. We live in one state – the State of Israel is Jewish and democratic.” Using unusually emotional language, Netanyahu said: “I am crying out against the inegalitarian enforcement from both the positive angle – which necessitates making police services available – and from the aspect that requires stricter enforcement.” The US invaded Iraq in 2003 to remove a dictator and now she is leaving Iraq with nothing to show for it except thousands of American casualties and a trillion dollars in debt. In a years time Iraq will be a worse enemy of the US than it was under Hussein. You would think she would learn. Now she removed two other dictators from Libya and Egypt who were friends of the US relatively, and the new governments will be less friendly. Where will it end? Ted Belman DEBKAfile Exclusive Analysis October 23, 2011, Ten days have gone by since President Barack Obama accused Iran of instigating a foiled plot to assassinate the Saudi ambassador to Washington last April. Yet neither the US nor Saudi Arabia has done anything about it – even at the UN. Friday, Oct. 21, Obama reaffirmed that all US soldiers will be brought home from Iraq by the end of the year. Two days later, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton pledged in Tajikistan: “To countries in the region, especially... No Victory But Defeat By Daniel Greenfield The most common justification for the Shalit deal is to wear it as a perverse badge of moral nobility. “What other country would exchange a thousand terrorists for one man.” This is a close cousin of the argument that says the United States treating terrorists with kid gloves proves that it is nobler than them. Both of these insufferable arguments are symptoms of the moral decline of civilization. If the life of a single soldier is more important than the battle, then why have battles or soldiers at all? We don’t send soldiers out to fight because we think that their lives are worthless, but because the objective of war is to save even more lives than those that will be lost in fighting it. Or to preserve that liberty and independence from enemy oppression which are the qualities that make life worthwhile. PARDON MY IGNORANCE, BUT THIS STORY IS OVER 10 YEARS OLD.

By Ted Belman Boogie Yaalon, Vice Prime Minister and Minister of Strategic Affairs, gave a talk last evening in the Great Synagogue in Jerusalem I was there. He appeared to be talking about the government’s position rather than his own. In point form he said; - Time is not working against us, as many say. It is working in our favour because me make use of time. We build, we develop. we grow, we invent, we have babies. Time works for those who make use of it - Israel will continue to build in Jerusalem and the settlements - We keep emphasizing our security needs to the exclusion of our rights. This must change.Netanyahu: Enforce Law in Arab Sector Too
“There is a feeling in the public that the level of enforcement among these populaces is much lower. I am committed to change this. I demand equal enforcement in all parts of the state of Israel.”
