- In the past three days, I was fortunate enough to get
the inside economic dope on Israel from two close women friends, Ada, who
just returned from a trip there and Gemma, my longtime friend who visited
me from Israel. What was uncanny is that both women told about the same
stories.
-
- ADA: I stayed at a downtown hotel and friends refused
to come and see me. This train they've been building for years has ripped
up the streets making travel too difficult and even worse, making Jerusalem
really ugly.
-
- GEMMA: Why does Jerusalem need a train? The city is too
small and buses used to provide reliable transportation. The construction
company is French and I smell corruption.
-
- ADA: No one has money today. I mean nothing to spare.
I never saw this before, but there are soup kitchens popping up everywhere.
-
- GEMMA: The biggest new industry is soup kitchens. People
don't have enough to eat.
-
- ADA: There are new apartments being built for wealthy
Americans who live in them a couple of months a year. They push the value
of ordinary homes beyond what people can pay. My friends are getting out
of Jerusalem in droves, some are leaving Israel for good. Those who were
sold aliyah now realize they were not told anything near the truth.
-
- GEMMA: My friend Marcie came on aliyah by Nefesh vNefesh.
She was promised a retraining course leading to a stable income. When she
got there, the course rejected her and she was left to her own devices.
-
- And on the conversations went. They came from reality.
Now here is the unreality being sold by the likes of author George Gilder
and even the Council On Foreign Relations:

- to hear a side of Israel most people never see from a
Senior Fellow for ME studies at the CFR.
-
- Dan Senor, co-author of Start-up Nation: The Story of
Israel's Economic Miracle, discuss with CNBC how Israel has managed to
become a leader in business innovation.
-
-
- In the unreal scenario, Israel invents 20%
of America's new technology and is basking in economic glory days. There
are no soup kitchens in paradise. There are only exclusive Soup Bistros.
An Israeli high tech web site just announced a contest for
the best essay about Israel's economic miracle. I entered:

-
- As Israel's economic miracle continues, .0009% of the
population benefits, while soup kitchens are popping up throughout the
nation and the malnutrition rate has passed 31% of schoolchildren. The
answer is yerida. Last year 2,900 Americans made aliyah to Israel while
31,000 Israelis moved permanently, mostly to the USA. Barry Chamish

- Speakers at a meeting of the Knesset State Control Committee
on Wednesday gave high marks to the Prime Minister's Office for its actions
over the past few weeks to help solve the problems of the Gush Katif evacuees.
Benzion Lieberman, who took over on Sunday as head of the Sela Administration
for Assistance to Settlers from Gush Katif and Northern Samaria, told the
committee that he was convinced "the Prime Minister's Office intends
to treat the resettlement as a national project."
-
- Hurray for the government! It finally
rewarded a true blue traitor to his people in the style he deserves.
-
- mailto:editor@israeljustice.comwww.israeljustice.com
-
- "Lieberman, who reported frequent meetings with
ministers and senior officials, said he informed and coordinated with police
before and during every protest....Lieberman was not questioned regarding
the source of funding for the sham civil disobedience campaign. In 2005,
left-wing critics said the protests were financed through millions of dollars
in government funding....Under cross-examination, Lieberman recalled the
last major protest meant to block the expulsion. On July 20, 2005, the
Council organized a three-day march publicized as an attempt to enter the
Gaza Strip and join Jewish residents threatened with eviction....Lieberman
said 100,000 people arrived at Kfar Maimon, far outnumbering the 15,000
police and soldiers. But he said the Council -- in coordination with the
government -- delayed the march to ensure its ineffectiveness. Lieberman's
assertion was in contrast to the insistence of police and officials that
the settlement Council refused to cooperate with authorities.

- And if you really want to learn
the extent of Lieberman's treachery, don't miss...

- NEW DVD
-
- It took months and too many dollars to sort out the technical
problems of my new DVD, ISRAEL AND THE MEDIA. So finally I turned to twenty
loyal readers to help me sort them out. Glenn Kimmel of Michigan phoned
to say he found the solution to both timing and transfer issues. So nobody
but those twenty get the DVD, when made, for four months. That is the promise
I made. Enjoy it, grand people.
-
- BUT along the way, I found a classic study of the media
and Israel's first Lebanon War. It's not mine but either was The Vatican's
Holocaust by Avro Manhattan and hundreds ordered it. If you want this one
hour DVD, write me. It's yours for $10 in the US, more where postage is
the main cost.
-
- And I think I should remind you, that I have a near daily
special media list. I ask for whatever you think is fair and you get the
best and most accurate hidden articles of contemporary events. Get this,
no one who started the list has quit in the past four months. It's that
good. chamish@netvision.net.il
-
- And get THE conPROMISED LAND for $20, plus postage instead
of the lulu.com price of $34 + postage.
