Two and a half months had passed since my son David's terrible accident, and he was still unconscious. The doctors remained split. Some tried to explain that this type of injury did not leave room for optimism. The days, weeks and months that passed seemed to wither our hope. Read Article 2) Posted Nov 02 2011 It's Not About Shalit By Moshe Feiglin Polls taken just prior to Gilad Shalit's release show that the main opposition to the deal was in the national religious sector. How can we explain this? Are national religious people heartless? Read Article 3) Posted Oct 26 2011 My UN Speech By Moshe Feiglin Honorable representatives of the nations, I chose to come here today to tell you the truth. Since the miraculous war in which the God of Israel led us to redeem Jerusalem, the Temple Mount and Israeli territory until the Jordan River, a strange costume ball has been taking place in this building. Read Article 4) Posted Oct 18 2011 The Year Of No More Doubts By Moshe Feiglin As 5771 ended, our doubts ended as well. We began the year with many still thinking that we enjoyed peace with Egypt, albeit a rather cold one. In the middle of the year there were those who thought that the collapse of the Arab regimes would finally bring about the greatly anticipated "new Middle East." The Libyan rebels created hope among the Che Guevara fans on Tel Aviv's Rothschild Boulevard. Who knows? Maybe the affable grandfather from Ramallah (the Holocaust denier with the blood of Israel's Olympic athletes on his hands, the one who immersed himself in the ritual pool called Oslo and emerged white as a dove) will finally be smart enough to make peace with us? Read Article 5) Posted Oct 16 2011 Just Passing Through By Moshe Feiglin It is a mistake to attribute Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's behavior to uncontrollable emotions, or to think that he has gone temporarily insane. Erdogan's actions are the product of cold, strategic calculation. Not only are they very logical, but we can almost say that Israel has left him almost no choice but to follow the course he has taken. Read Article 6) Posted Oct 05 2011 What Threatens Israel's Media? By Moshe Feiglin The main item on State Radio Channel 2's agenda recently was Channel 10's apology to Sheldon Adelson. Some background: A few months ago, Channel 2 News broadcasted a lengthy report accusing the billionaire founder of the pro-Netanyahu newspaper Yisrael Hayom, Sheldon Adelson, of illegally gaining rights to build a casino. The report turned out to be false and the station was forced to broadcast an apology. The media claimed that the Channel 10 stockholders, who feared financial repercussions by Adelson, coerced the staff to apologize. Karen Noibach also devoted precious airtime to performer Yehudah Pollicker. Israel Army Radio featured the 10th anniversary of 9/11. Afterwards, the two stations switched stories. Read Article 7) Posted Sep 27 2011 Conceptual Paralysis By Moshe Feiglin The well-orchestrated castigation of Israel's Home Front Commander Major General Eyal Eisenberg should set off flashing red lights and deafening warning bells in the head of every Israeli. The OC of the Home Front Command has warned us of an approaching all-out war (that will not only hit the home front, as the residents of Haifa and Beersheba already understand all too well), a war that could likely include weapons of mass destruction. But instead of embarking on serious, professional and transparent preparations, focusing all of the state's resources on the approaching danger, the army and media have busied themselves with crucifying the messenger. This means that we are marching toward a catastrophe. Read Article 8) Posted Sep 21 2011 Why Provide For The Ultra-Orthodox? By Moshe Feiglin The economic hardships felt by many Israelis must be the fault of the settlers and the ultra-Orthodox. After all, who else can possibly be to blame? Read Article 9) Posted Sep 14 2011 Striving For Mere Existence By Moshe Feiglin The frustration that grasped me over Shabbat reminded me of the man who told me how, at his bar mitzvah, "a ghost suddenly entered the synagogue in Budapest. It was scary, with a stench of smoke and death. The ghost ascended to the stage of the synagogue and began to shout, 'Jews, I have escaped Auschwitz to warn you that they will burn you. Run away now!' " Read Article 10) Posted Sep 07 2011 Slavery Or Freedom? By Michael Fuah Read Article 11) Posted Aug 31 2011 How Much Do They Cost Us? By Moshe Feiglin When the spokespersons for the social protests engulfing Israel revive the clichés that the money that could have gone to build housing in non-settlement neighborhoods was instead wasted on the settlements, they evoke the poltergeist of classic anti-Semitism. The Jew is always to blame, and so is the settler. Read Article 12) Posted Aug 24 2011 Equality, Liberty, And Jewish Economics (Conclusion) By Moshe Feiglin Israeli society has become captive to a culture that, behind the smokescreen of freedom, negates our liberty. It is easy to be confused by the two terms. But in their essence, they are mutually exclusive. Liberty means taking responsibility, while freedom means absolving oneself of responsibility. The culture that developed with the new capitalism included a highly visible element of voracious freedom, a dimension of "grab what you can and don't be responsible for anything but yourself - if anything at all." Read Article 13) Posted Aug 17 2011 Equality, Liberty, And Jewish Economics (Part II) By Moshe Feiglin The root of the distress and protests in Israel is much deeper than what is being portrayed on the evening news. In order to relieve the distress, we must implement standards that are much different than the current, familiar economic ones. Read Article 14) Posted Aug 10 2011 Equality, Liberty, And Jewish Economics (Part 1) By Moshe Feiglin The State of Israel is up in arms, and seemingly everyone is protesting: Doctors, anarchists, homeless people, renters who wish to be homeowners, parents, teachers, taxi drivers, and more. Some of the protests are real, some are not, others are authentic, while yet others hide a different agenda behind their protest signs. It's a mixed and very confusing set of events that has broken out during the summer heat - and it is rocking Israel's government. Read Article 15) Posted Aug 03 2011 Some Thoughts On Israel's Housing Crisis By Moshe Feiglin Who caused Israel's housing shortage? The Left. That sounds demagogic, but here's the reason why: Read Article 16) Posted Jul 27 2011 Our Spiritual Sovereignty By Moshe Feiglin It was hot on a recent Monday, but I took my jacket along nevertheless, hanging it on a hook in my car. It was the start of a long day of meetings, the pinnacle of which was to be a reception that Glenn Beck was holding for an exclusive group of people in a Jerusalem apartment - and I wanted to look my official best. Read Article 17) Posted Jul 20 2011 It's Not About Freedom Of Torah Thought By Moshe Feiglin When the recent spontaneous protests against the arrests of Rabbis Dov Lior and Yaakov Yosef gave way to official spin, the provocative initiators from the Attorney General's office likely breathed a sigh of relief. Once again, the "enemy" had painted himself into a patently irrelevant corner, and the partisan justice system - growing public disgust with it notwithstanding - remained the only show in town. Read Article 18) Posted Jul 13 2011 Rabbi Lior And The 'Rule Of Law' By Moshe Feiglin Approximately a year ago, Rabbi Dov Lior, venerated chief rabbi of Kiryat Arba, gave his approbation on a book about the Jewish laws of war, The King's Torah, written by Rabbi Yitzhak Shapira. Among other issues, the book deals with the legal ramifications of the Israeli army taking action to kill terrorists even when enemy civilians may also be killed in the process. Read Article 19) Posted Jul 07 2011 The Cottage Cheese Coup By Moshe Feiglin Read Article 20) Posted Jun 29 2011 Zionist Pragmatism Is Not Enough By Moshe Feiglin It was a short honeymoon. Former Mossad director Meir Dagan won the political Right's Moskowitz Prize for Zionism. But just two days later, he went on record against attacking Iran and promptly became the enemy of the Right. Maybe he really is the virtuoso that he is purported to be. It takes a lot of talent to collect the prestigious prize from the Right and then just two days later, win the prizes that the Left knows how to give.
