Illegal Immigrants Chase False Hope to
Canada.
More than 200 illegal immigrants have
crossed the Detroit-Windsor border in the past two weeks, on the run from an
immigration crackdown in the United States. According to CTV News, 45 families
and 31 individuals, approximately 200 people had entered Canada at the Detroit
River crossings and applied in Windsor for shelter and social assistance after
filing refugee claims with the Canada Border Services Agency. Municipal agencies
dealing with the sudden influx of mainly Mexican refugee applicants are renting
out hotel rooms and bracing for predicted thousands more to come. The bulk of
the latest arrivals being long-time Mexican illegals dislodged from their homes
and workplaces in southwestern Florida. The New York Times reported that an
organization in Naples, Fla., was the first to promote Canada as a haven for
refugees, and charged a fee for assisting with the paperwork. Other groups
cashed in on the scam. That organization in Naples, Fla., which the New York
Times had reported is a Christian organization called the "Jerusalem Haitian
Community Center, Inc." located at 171 Commercial Blvd. in Naples, FL, which is
run by Mr. Sinjuste, a Haitian immigrant who founded the center in 2000, who
promotes false information to these Mexicans on its Web site. Mr. Sinjuste said
he had first heard about the possibility of seeking asylum in Canada from a
client who brought one of the applications to his office two years ago. Since
then, he said, the center has helped about 300 undocumented immigrants fill out
Canadian asylum applications, charging them $400 per person. This Christian
organization collected $400 for adults and $100 for children. These fees are
called "donations" so that they are tax exempt and can evade from paying taxes
on this monetary windfall. JHCC staff download Canadian Refugee Status
Application forms off the Internet, and help these Mexican applicants fill them
out and give directions on how to get to the Canadian border. According to
Canada's department of Citizen and Immigration, those groups have been providing
"false and misleading information" on Canada's immigration policies. It’s an
outrage that money is being taken by this Christian organization who provide
false information to these Mexican people. Canada has seen an increase in
Mexican refugee claims over the past few years. Since 2005, it has recived 5,000
Mexican refugee claims last year alone. Once these people have been documented,
they should be placed on a special charter bus and transported right back to the
US border where they had come from. Do that a few times and word will quickly
spread that Canada will not accept Mexicans coming from the USA. If Canada do
not take this strong stand right away, they can expect thousands of Mexican
illegal immigrants who are presently living in the USA, will end up coming into
Canada.
Refitting the stack pully on my lawn
tractor
After having found out that by
exchanging the small pulley on the stack pulley on my lawn tractor for a larger
one on the drive train, had greatly changed the speed ratio from a crawl of five
miles per hour to a decent speed of fifteen to twenty mph in hi gear had gave me
the initiative to modify the stack pulley. I accomplished this task with the
professional help of T.I.M.E. enterprise located here in Haileybury. I had
T.I.M.E. enterprise install a duplicate key insert at the opposite end of the
stack pulley so that I can now attach either end of the stack pulley on to the
motor. A stack pulley has a small diameter pulley for the drive belt and a
larger pulley for the lawn mower. Now, thanks to T.I.M.E. enterprise, I can
rotate the stack pulley so that the larger pulley can be used for the drive
train and the smaller pulley is used for the lawn mower. Of course I had to get
a longer drive belt and a shorter mower drive belt to compensate for the change
in the stack pulley setup. With that done, I went about to test the results. The
lawn tractor in high gear can now go somewhere around fifteen to twenty miles
per hour which is a decent speed for a lawn tractor to be going when not cutting
grass. This enables me to now tow the canoe around at a respectable speed
without being a hindrance to local traffic. I can still use the low gear to cut
grass. I am greatful that we have the services of T.I.M.E. enterprise to be able
to modify the stack pully for me at a very resonible cost. Thank you T.I.M.E.
for being there when needed.
National Debt Cut Down
I fully agree with what Prime
Minister Stephen Harper and his Government had done to reduce the national debt
last year with the $14 billion dollars they had as surplus. The national debt is
now at $467 billion dollars which will result in annual savings of $750 million
per year in interest payments. That $750 million per year that is being saved on
interest payments can be used to help such services which are dearly needed in
social areas. A booming Canadian economy generated such big tax revenues this
past year that the federal budget surplus approached $14 billion. The final
surplus for the 2006-07 fiscal year came in at $13.8 billion, Harper said at a
Toronto news conference. That was far more than the $9.2 billion forecast in the
Conservatives' March budget. As of March 31, 2007, the national debt is at its
lowest level in 14 years. The budget surplus for the 2007-08 fiscal year is also
heading for the stratosphere. In August, the Finance Department acknowledged
that the surplus would top its original $3-billion projection. For just the
first three months of the new fiscal year, Ottawa has already pegged the surplus
at $6.4 billion. Pat Atkinson, who is Saskatchewan's Minister of Finance,
reacted negatively to the news. He called Stephen Harper a "stubborn" man for
funneling the budget surplus into debt reduction rather than applying the funds
to the contested equalization payments for the provinces. Liberal finance critic
John McCallum accused the Prime Minister of breaking his promise to ensure that
surplus forecasts were more accurate. When Stephen Harper was in opposition, the
Conservatives had sharply criticized the Liberals for reporting hefty budget
surpluses that were much higher than their forecasts. Harper said his government
wasn't guilty of the same thing. "We were very critical of budget estimates that
we thought were flagrantly untrue, deliberately underestimated," he said. NDP
leader Jack Layton, for his part, found little to choose between how the Tories
and the Liberals dealt with surpluses. Both, he said, have refused to spend on
programs and services he says Canadians need. Regardless what these people think
about what the Harper Government had done with that $14 billion dollars surplus,
I think it was the right thing to do. We need to get that national debt down
even further. It will be good for Canada and Canadians in the long run.
Canada - US Border
The northern border is a
significant threat as a terrorist point of entry," said Ken Luongo, Executive
Director of the Partnership for Global Security. With a little ingenuity the
border could easily be penetrated. "Our work shows that a determined
cross-border violator would likely be able to bring radioactive materials or
other contraband undetected into the United States by crossing the U.S.-Canada
border at any of the locations we investigated," the GAO report concluded. "Our
work shows that a determined cross-border violator would likely be able to bring
radioactive materials or other contraband undetected into the United States by
crossing the U.S.-Canada border at any of the locations we investigated," the
GAO report concluded. The report comes after GAO officers were sent out with
large red duffel bags, containing simulated nuclear weapons and other
contraband, to try transferring them at unmonitored and unfenced points between
the two countries. They succeeded three out of four times. U.S. politicians used
the report as an excuse to point the finger at Canada's weak security. "Say I'm
in Canada and I want to make a dirty bomb. How easily can I do so?" said U.S.
Senate Finance Comm. Chair Max Baucus Senator Ken Salazar (D-Colorado) demanded
tighter security along the border. "With the possible exception of the United
States, there are more international terrorist organizations active in Canada
than anywhere else in the world," said Salazar.
If the Americans want to prevent people from Canada from illegally crossing
their border, the onus is on the USA to protect that border. Maby the USA should
build a security fence across their Canada-USA border to discourage and stem the
flow of people from Canada illegally entering the USA. Canada's only concern is
to keep people who are coming into Canada illegally from the USA or elsewhere.
Given the lousy job the USA is already doing keeping illegal Mexicans from
coming across their Mexican-USA border, American have good reason to be worried.
HARPER ADAMANT CANADIAN TROOPS
MUST REMAIN AT ALL COSTS
Saturday, 29 September 2007; Prime
Minister Harper stated that now is not the time to be debating the Afghan war
when we are in the middle of mourning more Canadian dead soldiers. "We just had
the tragic loss of six soldiers. These are Canada's finest people out there
protecting our country's interests. Hummm! I wonder what might that be? Harper
say's that our Canadian soldiers are prepared to sacrifice themselves for the
security of the Canadian people and of human beings around the world". All I
know is that we have six Canadian soldiers dead and two who are in stable
condition after a battle with the Taliban insurgents in southern Afghanistan.
The troops who were killed and injured came under small arms fire and were also
hit by rocket-propelled grenades during an operation in the Panjwaii district,
approximately 43 kilometres west of the Kandahar military base. Then today,
Saturday, 29 September 2007, A mine blast had killed two Canadians in
Afghanistan is one of the world's most heavily mined countries. Over the last
year, thousands of mines have been removed, but they're still being found in
areas designated as safe, while new ones are being deployed by the Taliban and
al-Qaeda. Just today, a bomb had rip through a bus carrying Afghan troops. A
suicide bomb that ripped through an army bus in the Afghan capital on Saturday
killed 31 people, most of then were military personnel. Seventeen of the wounded
were in critical condition, Public Health Minister Sayed Mohammad Amin Fatemi
said "At this time I can tell you that 31, almost all of them military
personnel, have been martyred," he said during a visit to the city's main
military hospital where many of the casualties were taken. The defence ministry
said in a statement earlier that at least 27 military personnel were killed. The
bus had been carrying soldiers and officers to work when a suicide bomber in
military uniform blew himself, destroying the vehicle. The Taliban were found to
be responsible for the Suicide attack on the army bus in the Afghan capital.
According to CBC News; A bomb had exploded on a bus crowded with Afghan troops
in Afghanistan's capital today, killing as many as 27 people, officials have
told the Associated Press. Kabul's police chief, Gen. Mohammad Aslam Hasas, said
Afghan forces shouldn't let strangers get close to them at bus stops. "They know
who should be on the bus," Hasas said. "Whenever they see a stranger's face,
they should prevent them from getting close." The theatre, a restaurant and a
pharmacy were among several shops that were badly damaged. A woman who lives
nearby was woken up by the explosion, which shattered her bedroom window,
cutting her feet. The blast's force sprayed a chunk of scalp onto a nearby
rooftop. Sulahdin, an army officer at the scene, said about 50 people were on
the bus. Adbul Karim, a witness, said several people in the back of the vehicle
survived. Taliban attacks typically target international and Afghan military and
police, though civilians are often killed or wounded as well. The Taliban have
launched more than 100 suicide attacks this year, a record pace. More than 4,500
people have been killed in insurgency-related violence this year, according to
an Associated Press count based on figures from Western and Afghan officials.
It has been six years since the US forces had invaded Afghanistan to get Bin Laden
and oust the Taliban from power. While it is being claimed by the west that things
have much improved in Afghanistan since the US-Afghan invasion, living conditions have actually
fared much worse than had originally been expected, is the common view among the majority
of the Afghanistan people according to foreign news press release from various countries.
While other countries who are involved in this Afghanistan war through the UN, they are keeping
their forces away from harm, while our Canadian troops have taken the brunt of being exposed to
danger in Afghanistan. Our Canadian troops have been cleverly roped-into taking over the combat mission
where the American troops had left off. Harper claims that they are keeping terrorist away from
our shores, when in fact it will only give greater cause for terrorist to take action against
Canada and Canadian targets overseas. Stephen Harper may be all gun-ho and adamant that
Canadian troops must remain in Afghanistan at all cost, this is going to end up being Canada's
own version of Viet Nam. Our troops will get bog down in this Afghan suicide combat mission,
fighting people our troops can not even tell who the enemy is in this Afghan Moslem war.
According to the Associated Press; What sounds like science fiction is really
true: A killer amoeba living in lakes enters the body through the nose and
attacks the brain where it feeds until the person dies. Even though encounters
with this microscopic bug are extraordinarily rare, it has already killed six
boys and a young man this year. It has USA health officials concerned, and they
are predicting more cases in the future. "This is definitely something we need
to track, '' said Michael Beach, a specialist in recreational waterborne
illnesses for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. "This is a
heat-loving amoeba. As water temperatures go up we expect to see more cases."
According to the CDC, the amoeba called Naegleria fowleri killed 23 people in
the United States, from 1995 to 2004. This year health officials noticed a spike
with six cases -- three in Florida, two in Texas and one in Arizona. The CDC
knows of only several hundred cases worldwide since its discovery in Australia
in the 1960s. Nobody knows when a person is infected until after the person had
died. The only clue one might have of being infected is that a person is
suffering from sudden onset of headaches, fever, nausea, pharyngitits, and nasal
obstruction or discharge. With the disease progression other symptoms include
lethargy, confusion, and stiff neck; convulsions may occur with rapid
deterioration to coma and death within 1- 14 days; other symptoms include
abnormalities of taste and smell, seizures, cerebellar ataxia, nuchal rigidity,
photophobia. After doing tests on the body of a person who was dead after having
been infected with the killer amoeba, the person who had picked up the amoeba a
week before, was known to have been swimming in the balmy shallows of Lake
Havasu, a popular man-made lake on the Colorado River between Arizona and
California. Naegleria fowleri is a free living amoeba typically found in warm
fresh water. It can can cause Primary Amoebic Meningoencephalitis (PAM or PAME)
in humans characterized by rapid onset of coma and death. Currently, there is no
consistently effective treatment. Swimming in or jumping into fresh water is
best avoided. Chlorinated swimming pools are safe from the perspective of
contracting PAM. Water samples were collected from 59 sites by managers of
federal recreation waters across the United States. These were processed for the
pathogenic ameboflagellate Naegleria fowleri. Thermotolerant amebas were
recovered and identified from 34 sites, including N. fowleri from the Tennessee
River at Wheeler National Recreation Area (Alabama), Yosemite Creek in Yosemite
National Park (California), Owl Creek at Shiloh National Battlefield Park
(Tennessee), Lake Meredith National Recreational Area (Texas), Spirit Lake at
Mt. St. Helens National Volcano Monument (Washington), and Firehole River at
Yellowstone National Park (Wyoming). Principle components analysis was performed
on the variables temperature, dissolved iron, species diversity index, and
environmental condition. Recently disturbed environments had a significant
effect on the occurrence of N. fowleri. This finding supports the
flagellate-empty habitat hypothesis of Griffin, which stressed that the ameba is
most likely to be found where the environment has been cleared of competitors
and predators. An informal probability index for the occurrence of N. fowleri is
proposed as a useful tool for managers of recreational waters. Currently, there
is no consistently effective treatment. Swimming in or jumping into fresh water
is best avoided. Chlorinated swimming pools are safe from the perspective of
contracting PAM. For more information on this matter, here is a direct link to

Reducing speed on ATV's and
Snowmobiles
I believe the main reason there
are a great many injuries on ATV's and snowmobiles is because of the excessive
speed these machines can travel, be it on paved roads or rough terrain. Many of
these machines can reach in excess of 96.56 KPH (60 MPH) which is far too fast for its
intended use. These machines should have only a maximum speed of 32.19 KPH (20
MPH) which is fast enough on paved roads or on rough terrain. These ATV machines,
as the name implies, were meant to be driven mostly on rough terrain, therefore
speed on these machines should never have been made a factor by the ATV's industry.
ATV's include both snowmobiles and off-road vehicles.
Margaret Keresteci, manager of Clinical Registries at CIHI says, "These machines can
reach high speeds and often travel on rough terrain, so the impact of a fall or
a collision can be quite dramatic." A new report says the number of people
hospitalized because of injuries on all-terrain vehicles and snowmobiles rose 25
per cent from the mid-1990s to 2005. There were 4,104 hospitalizations due to
these accidents in 2004-2005, compared to 3,296 in 1996-97, says a report
released Thursday by the Canadian Institute for Health Information. On average,
11 Canadians were hospitalized every day in 2004-2005 because of ATV-related
injuries. Most of the injuries are crushed chests, bellies, liver and spleen
which can be fatal. Most of the injuries has led to a very high rate of
disability and of death. Accidents from both snowmobiles and off-road vehicles
rose by 66 per cent, from nearly 1,700 hospital admissions in 1996-1997 to more
than 2,800 in 2004-2005. The majority of these accidents involved serious injuries
or death. Most of those admitted to hospital related to ATV's and snowmobiles had
multiple injuries, half had fractures of the upper or lower limbs. Ten per cent of
ATV-related injuries required treatment in a highly specialized facility in 2004-2005.
Head injuries (19 per cent) were common in off-road vehicle accidents. Let's get the
maximum speed down to 32.19 KPH (20 MPH) on all ATV's and snowmobiles.
Another RCMP Officer Gunned Down
Sunday, Oct.7th, 2007;
RCMP officer Chris Worden was shot and killed in Hay River, N.W.T. on Saturday, Oct. 6, 2007.
Hay River is a community of 3,000 located on the south shore of Great Slave Lake, 400 kilometers
south of Yellowknife. Chris Worden, 30, was alone when he was dispatched to a complaint at a Hay
River residence at 5 a.m. Saturday morning, according to CTV Newsnet. I find it strange that
with the killing of police officers in the past, they are faced with increase risks having to
patrol on their own without any backup in remote settings. Only now, during the Ontario Provincial
election did Public Safety Minister Stockwell Day make the announcement and pledged legislation
and funding to ensure the work of Canadian law enforcement is not undermined, while addressing a
crowd on Parliament Hill last Sunday for the 30th Police and Peace Officer's Memorial Day, an
annual day of rememberence for fallen officers and their families. Why was that announcement and
legislation and funding not made during the four years they had the chance to do so? These
liberals are only bringing it up now when they are trying to gain more seats or hold on to their
political position. Why had not Chris Worden and other police officers have the necessary resources
they require that would force them to go out on calls by themselves, with no backup within miles
of their post? According to Analyst John Muise, a spokesperson for the Canadian Centre for Abuse
Awareness and 30-year police veteran, told CTV Newsnet on Sunday that "officers often face
increased risks in remote settings. Muise said Worden's death will inevitably raise procedural
questions for the RCMP, especially in remote areas of the country where resources are often
strained. If it's only resources that separated this officer from having a partner than that is
a fair question and is a question that will need an answer because quite frankly, I understand
that policing is expensive, but to lose a life unnecessarily is unacceptable." I am sure
Canadians all across Canada concur with that sentiment. Sgt. Larry O'Brien said officers
currently had no information on the type of complaint Worden was responding to, but confirmed he
responded alone. "Depending on what the nature of the complaint was, it is quite common for
members to attend on their own, especially in the north where we have smaller detachments," he
said. Worden joined the Mounties in 2002 and had spent most of his career in the Northwest
Territories. Worden's wife, Jody, and infant daughter live in Hay River. Residents of Hay River
have been bringing flowers to the RCMP detachment since word of the officer's death. No arrests
had been made as of Saturday night. Police are expected to address the media this Sunday afternoon.
Update; The RCMP have good reason to believe the main suspect in the killing of Const. Christopher
Worden is in Alberta. They had seized a truck outside of Edmonton believed to have been
abandoned by the fugitive Mr. Emrah Bulatci. The 23-year-old man is wanted for first-degree
murder in the shooting death of Const. Christopher Worden. Mr. Emrah Bulatci. was
arrested on February 7th, 2007 with two other men in a drug bust at a parking lot in a
north-end shopping district in Edmonton. Mr. Emrah Bulatci had been released on a $20,000 bail bond.
A Palestinian State?
Monday, 8 October 2007; There has been a lot of talk
and debate about the need to create a Palestinian State for Arab people who call themselves Palestinians. Fatah-controlled Palestinian Authority newspaper had printed this cartoon appearing to glorify
Osama Bin-Laden and the 9/11 attacks on the United States.The Text Reads: “Exclusive to Al
Hayat Al Jadida”
To mark the
anniversary of the September 11, 2001 Al-Qaeda attacks on New York City and
Washington, the PA official daily Al-Hayat Al-Jadida which is a
organization, and is a Fatah-controlled Palestinian Authority newspaper, ran a cartoon of a
smiling Bin-Laden flashing the "V for Victory" sign. His two upraised
fingers formed the shape of the burning Twin Towers, felled by planes hijacked
by Al-Qaeda terrorists. The cartoon, according to PMW, was prepared exclusively
for the newspaper, which is owned and managed by the office of PA Chairman
Mahmoud Abbas.
Here is an artical by Hillel Fendel which I
had pulled out from IsraelNN.com
which should give people much cause for concern. The title of this artical
reads; Would a "Palestinian State" advance U.S. interests?
Part of the artical reads as follows;
American-Israeli relations expert Yoram Ettinger, a former Congressional liaison
in Israel's Washington embassy, says the Palestinian Authority has always taken a pro-terror
slant - in opposition to U.S. policy and interests. Ettinger directly and sharply targets
Palestinian Authority/Fatah chairman Mahmoud Abbas, known in terrorist circles as Abu Mazen, and
the entity he governs. "Abu Mazen's PA/PLO," Ettinger writes, "has been a systematic ally of
Bin-Laden, Saddam [Hussein], Iran, North Korea, China and Russia. It has been a deadly threat to
the Hashemites [of Jordan] and moderate Gulf regimes." The PA has been "a role-model of
inter-Arab treachery, hate-education, terrorism, homicide and car bombing, hijacking and murder
of diplomats (e.g., murdered US ambassadors in Sudan), human rights violation, oppression of
Christian Arabs and corruption. PLO mentors were allies of the Nazis and of the ruthless
communist regimes in Moscow and Eastern Europe." Ettinger, who still serves intermittently as an
Israeli government consultant, cites cartoons recently published in the PA daily Al-Hayat
Al-Jadida that honor the perpetrator of 9/11, Osama Bin-Laden, even as the US continues to
mourn the nearly 3,000 victims of those attacks. The cartoons "echo sermons and text books in
Abu Mazen’s controlled mosques and schools," Ettinger notes. Palestinian terrorists fought US
soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan in the past, Ettinger said, and if they are granted a state,
will simply provide an east Mediterranean platform to US enemies and will add yet another
anti-US vote at the United Nations.
According to Palestinian Media Watch, which reported the story, where a cartoon was found on Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah faction Publication. This cartoon depics a
plea for the death and bereavement of Americans is a special prayer
for Laylat Al-Qadr (the 27th day of Ramadan), as is noted in the
corner of the cartoon. The words of the cartoon character's prayer adorn four missiles aimed at the American plane. On Laylat al-Qadr, literally the Night of Decree, Muslims recite a large number of prayers.
The Shi'a Muslims in particular stay awake all night, pray, and make wishes. These are his wishes: "Allah, scatter them!!" “And turn their wives into widows!!"
“And turn their children into orphans!!"
“And give us victory over them!!"
Publications in the PA and by Mahmoud Abbas’s Fatah faction have a
history of promoting support for those who fight and kill Americans.
The most recently published 12th grade PA schoolbooks, for example,
use the phrase "brave resistance" to describe the insurgents who fight
American soldiers in Iraq. As PA's Mahmoud Abbas people calls for the
death of Americans, the American government is making preparations for
a summit meeting it will host next month between Israel's leadership and
PA's Mahmoud Abbas, whom they regard as being a moderate. So while U.S.
President George W. Bush and Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert are stupidly
trying to work out a peace deal with Fatah Palestinian Chairman Mahmoud
Abbas, by giving up Israeli land, this is what Mahmoud Abbas and his people
are realy thinking about Israel and America. The web site; Palestinian Media Watch clearly reveals what
Mahmoud Abbas and his Palestinians are really all about. It shows what that Fatah, Palestinian Authority chairman Mahmoud Abbas and
his Palestinian people really think while this "Peace" deal is going on. Palestinian Media Watch clearly shows what these Palestiniana are doing behind the scene
which most people outside of Israel are not fully aware of.
In the meantime, a gag order was removed today, Thursday, Oct. 11th, 2007 which has been released for publication. The publication reveals
while this "peace plan" is being worked out between Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert
and Mahmoud Abbas, that an attempted terror attack on a western Negev community in
August 25th, 2007, was carried out by Fatah, headed by PA Chairman Mahmoud Abbas. The
four Fatah terrorists involved were thwarted in the attack in Netiv Ha'asara and two of them
had managed to escape back into Gaza. They were later arrested that day in a joint
IDF/Shabak (General Security Service) operation in Gaza. The two terrorists arrested were
Abdel el-Rahman Makadmeh, 21, and Mamduh Tanani, 20, The men admitted during
interrogation that the entire attack had been planned by Al-Aksa Brigades handler Rafeh
Shahin, in cooperation with the Popular Resistance Committee, a group that handles
coordinated terrorist activity for Hamas, with funding from Hizbullah. The other two terrorists
were shot dead during the attempted attack. Heavy fog enabled these four men to cross the
Gaza security fence into Israel with the help of a rope ladder and remain undetected for almost
an hour. Once discovered, they threw hand grenades at soldiers injuring two lightly. The two
terrorists who were killed were identified as being Hader Ukal, 21, and Mahamed Tzaker, 20.
Bombs, fragmentation grenades, an AK-47 assault rifle and two military vests were found on
their bodies. Both men were members of Fatah’s Al-Aksa Brigades terrorist group in Gaza.
The men had received training from both Fatah and Hamas and had taken part in firing
rockets on Israeli towns. Kassam rockets are still being fired by Gaza terrorists toward Jewish
towns in the western Negev.
New Israeli Peace Plan
There is a new Israeli peace plan in the air. There is a move in Israel to look at a
"regional solution" peace plan called the "Israeli Initiative The Right Road to Peace" plan,
which is being put forth by a Member of the Knesset, Benny Elon, who is the head of the
National Union party in Israel. The ongoing peace plans had been focusing on the transfer of
Israeli land to the Arabs who claim to be "Palestinians", as in the two state solution of the
Oslo Accords and other such like peace plans, which simply will not work. This new peace
plan which is now being proposed is to focus on the "Palestinian" refugees who live in refugee
camps throughout the Arab world, which presently exist. The idea in this new peace plan is by
helping these "Palestinian"people to have a better future for themselves, by giving these
people ex-amount of money and a passport, which will allow these people to leave those
"Palestinian refugee camps", get on an airplane or boat and go elsewhere to live, where they
will be welcomed and treated with respect. This new regional solution plan, MK Benny Elon
believes will cause the Arabs and those who call themselves "Palestinians" to cease their
attacks upon Israel and cause them to forget the whole idea of liquidating the Jewish State.
U.S. Presidential candidate Sam Brownback, who is a senior Republican senator has endorsed MK
Benny Elon new Initiative peace plan. The basic plan is that those " Palestinians" who
presently live in those refugees camps, are waiting for the time when they can return to Israel,
despite the fact that the vast majority of these people had never lived in Israel (Palestine). The
thinking is that all these people really want is to have the means to get out of these refugees
camps and be able to make a decent life for themselves and it will cease the hostility of the
"Palestinian" people . Therefore; The solution according to this new Initiative peace plan is to
give these people the means, by providing ex-amount of dollars to them, along with a passport,
so that these people can get away from those awful refugees camps and make a decent life
for themselves elsewhere. I believe that most of these people do want to get away from these
camps and have a decent standard of living for themselves, will gladly accept this offer. Here
is MK Benny Elon's "The Right Road to Peace
Israel initiative plan which will provide a clearer view on what this new peace plan is all
about that is being contemplated. But will that really cease the hostility of the "Palestinian"
people ? I think not, and for many reasons. Eve Harow Judean Eve', on Israel National Radio
had discussed the Israel Initiative, and the Palestinian refugee camps spoke on this topic.
Check out Arlene Kushner Incisive Commentary and major
reports in which she shares her expertise vis-a-vis UNRWA. Unfortunately, MK Benny Elon new Initiative peace plan will not prevent the Palestinians and other Arabs to continue in their plan
to liquidate the Jewish State. Regardless whither the issue of the " Palestinian" refugee
problem is solved or not. The Arab threat and desire to eliminate Israel off the face of the map
will still exist. All this effort will not change that. The only answer for Israel's survival is to
seek to do the Will of GOD and remain strong in the faith, strong in their resolution and military might that no
Arab country will dare attack the nation of Israel, least that country wants to see its own
waterloo. Anyway; That's all I am going to say on what is going on in Israel.
