           Terrorists Reject Cease-Fire=20
          =20

      =20
      Three of the terrorist groups supposedly part of the cease-fire =
announced Saturday, have already rejected it and declare they refuse to =
abide by the so-called agreement.=20

      The Army of Islam, a small but active terror organization, =
released a statement Sunday night which made it clear that not all =
terror groups had agreed to the ceasefire, contrary to statements made =
by the PA leadership Saturday night. "The Army of Islam does not =
recognize the truce," said the statement, according to the AFP news =
agency. "We warn whoever prevents us from fighting the Jews."=20

      A ceasefire agreement allegedly coordinated Saturday between all =
terrorist organizations in the Palestinian Authority territories went =
into effect on Sunday morning at 6:00 a.m. Within hours, the Islamic =
Jihad and Fatah-linked Abu Rish Brigades groups both said they would =
continue firing rockets against Israel's southern communities.=20

      Several Kassam rockets slammed into the city of Sderot less than =
an hour from the time that the ceasefire allegedly went into effect. =
Another rocket landed in the Eshkol region of the Negev.=20

           Olmert Continues Policy of Restraint=20
          =20

      =20
      Unbelievably, Prime Minister Olmert continues his policy of =
'restraint' in the face of continued Kassam attacks and flagrant =
violations of the ceasefire, not to mention the outright rejection of it =
just reported above.=20

      What are the long term effects of this 'restraint' policy? Michael =
Freund, acclaimed JPost writer, tackles that question in a short but =
pointed article that I highly recommend. He notes that our children and =
grandchildren will suffer the greatest consequences. Israeli parents and =
grandparents need to raise their voices loudly on behalf of our next =
generation. Click below for Freund's article.=20

           Olmert: We'll Vacate Land for Peace=20
          =20

      =20
      The government met yesterday at Kibbutz Sde Boker to commemorate =
the passing away of Israel's founder and first prime minister David =
Ben-Gurion 33 years ago. During the ceremony Prime Minister Ehud Olmert =
made a dramatic appeal to the Palestinians, urging them to choose a 'new =
path' --- a path of negotiations with Israel.=20

      Olmert, who until recently called for a unilateral Israeli =
withdrawal from West Bank territories, or 'realignment' as he referred =
to it, said, "I call on you from here today to choose a new path, a path =
that gives a chance to a different future for you and for us. Yesterday =
we went down that path and I hope it will push us forward towards the =
goal that want to reach - peace, calm and trust in one another," .=20

      Olmert said Israel will be ready to evacuate occupied lands and =
settlements in return for "real peace." "You have to stop violence and =
terror, to recognize our right to live in peace and security by your =
side and to give up the right of return. That's a right, natural and =
possible target," he said.=20

           PA Mayor Fired for Meeting with Israelis=20
          =20

      =20
      Hamas has dismissed the mayor of the West Bank town of Na'leen, =
Mohammed Soror, and his assistant, Thaer Omaira, after the two met with =
Israeli settlers, the Hamas affiliated website Palestine Info reported =
today. Proving it was firm on its political stand of not normalizing =
with the Hebrew state, Hamas Movement has dismissed mayor of the Na'leen =
town, west of Ramallah city, for meeting with Israeli settlers without =
permission from the Movement," the statement on the Hamas website said.=20

      "Hamas explained that the visit made by the mayor and four members =
of the municipal council (three of them weren't from Hamas) was decided =
arbitrarily and without consulting the Movement," the report said, =
adding: "Hamas' policy bans its members from meeting with Israeli =
officials."=20

      "We are holding members in our movement accountable over any wrong =
step they may take; yet, others are awarding their leaders who kiss =
hands of the Zionists and coordinate with them," said the Hamas =
statement, in an apparent reference to Palestinian President Mahmoud =
Abbas and Fatah.=20

           UN Condemns Israeli "Occupation" of Golan Heights=20
          =20

      =20
      The UN Human Rights Council, which has censured only Israel during =
its six-month existence, today passed a new resolution criticizing the =
Jewish state, this time for its "occupation" of the Golan Heights. The =
council voted 32-1 with 14 abstentions to declare illegal Israel's 1981 =
annexation of the Golan Heights and demand that Israel rescind its =
decision to impose its laws and jurisdiction on the area, which it =
captured in the 1967 Middle East war.=20

      Canada, which said the resolution was unbalanced, was the only no =
vote, and European Union members abstained. The United States and Israel =
are not members of this council.=20



                  =20
           Reverse of US Policy Toward Israel=20
          =20

      =20
      Americans - be aware! The cards in Washington are stacked against =
Israel these days. An unfortunate combination has emerged of a president =
who regards the Jewish state as strategically weak and a group of key US =
advisers on the administration's new Iraqi policy who are drawn from the =
most anti-Israeli US administrations of the past. The Olmert government =
must of necessity brace itself for a period of intensive American =
pressure to cede ever more assets to curry favor with the Arabs. This is =
the present situation.=20

      The situation which the Bush Administration is facing in Iraq has =
created a dilemma which necessitates reversing the US policy of support =
for Israel in order to gain help from the Arab nations with regard to =
Iraq. The feared diplomatic nightmare for Israel is now a reality.=20

      Hamas was quick to pick up the new tune emanating from Washington. =
Its leaders and Mahmoud Abbas declared a hurried ceasefire Sunday to =
take advantage of the US president's willingness to broaden his Amman =
talks from his planned meetings with Iraqi prime minister Nouri Maliki =
to an effort to convene an international conference on the Palestinian =
issue. Israel's prime minister Ehud Olmert accepted the ceasefire =
against military advice Jordan's King Abdullah chipped in by saying that =
Palestine "is the core" of all Middle East violence.=20

      Olmert, loath to relinquish the high diplomatic ground to the =
Palestinians, promised Monday that after the kidnapped Israeli soldier =
is released, Israel will free many jailed Palestinians, including long =
term prisoners, as a confidence-building gesture to prove Israel seeks =
peace. As soon as a Palestinian unity government is formed, Olmert said, =
immediate negotiations could start with Mahmoud Abbas on the creation of =
a sovereign Palestinian state. He allowed the evacuation of some West =
Bank settlements was possible in return for real peace and Palestinian =
renunciation of the return of 1948 Palestinian refugees. If such talks =
are successful, Olmert promised to release frozen Palestinian funds.=20

      Since Sunday, every Palestinian and Israeli verbal pronouncement =
has been tuned to the wavelengths of Bush and his secretary of state =
Condoleezza Rice. She will join him in Amman and lead the effort to =
bring Israeli and Palestinian leaders together. Her mission will be to =
extract results from these encounters to be used in turn to persuade =
Arab rulers to lend the United States a helping hand on the Iraq crisis. =


      In plain terms, Israel is to be the 'sacrifice' for solving the =
Iraq dilemma.=20

      The brain behind this new strategy belongs to Brent Scowcroft, =
national security adviser to three Republican presidents, Richard Nixon, =
Gerald Ford and George Bush Sr. He is emerging as the live wire behind =
the latest US foreign policy departures and the pivotal figure behind =
the Baker-Hamilton Iraq Study Group.=20

      Scowcroft was the first American strategic thinker to say out loud =
what intelligence has been reporting since early August - namely, that =
George Bush and his key advisers have diagnosed Israel as coming out of =
the Lebanon War weakened and with its strategic situation impaired.=20

      "I think we need to embed Iraq in a larger regional solution, and =
that to me goes back to the Palestinian issue. I think this would put us =
back on the offensive psychologically and even make Iraq easier to =
manage," Sowcroft said. Scowcroft then proposed an international =
conference, saying: "But I don't think this will start with some kind of =
a conference because everyone will come with their preset speeches and =
everything will freeze again. But I think that there will be some quiet =
consultations in the region. I believe the Arab states in the region are =
eager for such a conversation. Israel may not be eager, but Israel is in =
bad shape right now."=20

      The mismanagement of the Lebanon War this summer and its =
distasteful results on all fronts are now yielding dangerous =
consequences for Israel, far beyond the public unhappiness and political =
implications within Israel itself.=20



                  =20
           The Sons of Issachar=20
          =20

      Where are today's 'sons of Issachar'? They were described in I =
Chronicles 12 as 'men who understood the signs of the times and what =
Israel should do'.How we need them today!=20

      May Hashem raise them up quickly and grant them authority to lead =
Israel in what she must do at this hour. Even better, may He send the =
moshiach ben David to establish His Kingdom in Jerusalem.=20

      Shalom and blessings, Leah=20

      <P>Americans - be aware! The cards in Washington are stacked =
against=20
      Israel these days. An unfortunate combination has emerged of a =
president=20
      who regards the Jewish state as strategically weak and a group of =
key US=20
      advisers on the administration=92s new Iraqi policy who are drawn =
from the=20
      most anti-Israeli US administrations of the past. The Olmert =
government=20
      must of necessity brace itself for a period of intensive American =
pressure=20
      to cede ever more assets to curry favor with the Arabs. This is =
the=20
      present situation. </P>
      <P>The situation which the Bush Administration is facing in Iraq =
has=20
      created a dilemma which necessitates reversing the US policy of =
support=20
      for Israel in order to gain help from the Arab nations with regard =
to=20
      Iraq. The feared diplomatic nightmare for Israel is now a reality. =
</P>
      <P>Hamas was quick to pick up the new tune emanating from =
Washington. Its=20
      leaders and Mahmoud Abbas declared a hurried ceasefire Sunday to =
take=20
      advantage of the US president=92s willingness to broaden his Amman =
talks=20
      from his planned meetings with Iraqi prime minister Nouri Maliki =
to an=20
      effort <U>to convene an international conference on the =
Palestinian=20
      issue.</U> Israel=92s prime minister Ehud Olmert accepted the =
ceasefire=20
      <U>against military advice </U>Jordan's King Abdullah chipped in =
by saying=20
      that Palestine =93is the core=94 of all Middle East violence. </P>
      <P>Olmert, loath to relinquish the high diplomatic ground to the=20
      Palestinians, promised Monday that after the kidnapped Israeli =
soldier is=20
      released, Israel will free many jailed Palestinians, including =
long term=20
      prisoners, as a confidence-building gesture to prove Israel seeks =
peace.=20
      As soon as a Palestinian unity government is formed, Olmert said,=20
      immediate negotiations could start with Mahmoud Abbas on the =
creation of a=20
      sovereign Palestinian state. He allowed the evacuation of some =
West Bank=20
      settlements was possible in return for real peace and Palestinian=20
      renunciation of the return of 1948 Palestinian refugees. If such =
talks are=20
      successful, Olmert promised to release frozen Palestinian funds. =
</P>
      <P>Since Sunday, every Palestinian and Israeli verbal =
pronouncement has=20
      been tuned to the wavelengths of Bush and his secretary of state=20
      Condoleezza Rice. She will join him in Amman and lead the effort =
to bring=20
      Israeli and Palestinian leaders together. Her mission will be to =
extract=20
      results from these encounters to be used in turn to persuade Arab =
rulers=20
      to lend the United States a helping hand on the Iraq crisis. </P>
      <P>In plain terms, Israel is to be the 'sacrifice' for solving the =
Iraq=20
      dilemma. </P>
      <P>The brain behind this new strategy belongs to <B>Brent =
Scowcroft,</B>=20
      national security adviser to three Republican presidents, Richard =
Nixon,=20
      Gerald Ford and George Bush Sr. He is emerging as the live wire =
behind the=20
      latest US foreign policy departures and the pivotal figure behind =
the=20
      Baker-Hamilton Iraq Study Group. </P>
      <P>Scowcroft was the first American strategic thinker to say out =
loud what=20
      intelligence has been reporting since early August - namely, that =
George=20
      Bush and his key advisers have diagnosed Israel as coming out of =
the=20
      Lebanon War weakened and with its strategic situation impaired. =
</P>
      <P>=93I think we need to embed Iraq in a larger regional solution, =
and that=20
      to me goes back to the Palestinian issue. I think this would put =
us back=20
      on the offensive psychologically and even make Iraq easier to =
manage,=94=20
      Sowcroft said. Scowcroft then proposed an international =
conference,=20
      saying: =93But I don=92t think this will start with some kind of a =
conference=20
      because everyone will come with their preset speeches and =
everything will=20
      freeze again. But I think that there will be some quiet =
consultations in=20
      the region. I believe the Arab states in the region are eager for =
such a=20
      conversation. Israel may not be eager, but Israel is in bad shape =
right=20
      now.=94 </P>
      <P>The mismanagement of the Lebanon War this summer and its =
distasteful=20
      results on all fronts are now yielding dangerous consequences for =
Israel,=20

within Israel=20
