NETANYAHU TELLS OBAMA ALL OF JERUSALEM IS OPEN TO JEWS

President Obama's campaign to take control of Jerusalem from the State of Israel intensified over the weekend.


Michael Oren, Israel's Ambassador to the United States was summoned by the Obama administration and told that Israel must stop building in Jerusalem Jewish homes in what is wrongfully called East Jerusalem. The administration disturbed the Jewish Sabbath to deliver this order because the lame duck President of the Palestinian Authority had asked them to stop Jewish people from moving into parts of Jerusalem.


In the past, Israel would respond to an American request like this with quiet acquiescence. But this time, Israel's Prime Minister, speaking on behalf of his coalition and his country set down a new course for relations between Israel and the United States of Barak Obama.


Netanyahu said, "There is no prohibition against Arab residents buying apartments in the west of the city and there is no prohibition barring the city's Jewish residents from buying or building in the east of the city. That is the policy of an open city that is not divided."


He continued,"We cannot accept the notion that Jews will not have the right to buy apartments specifically in Jerusalem. I can only imagine what would happen if they were forbidden from purchasing apartments in New York or London: there would be an international outcry. This has always been Israel's policy and this is the policy of the current government."


Netanyahu also stated that Jerusalem is the "unified capital of the Jewish people, and sovereignty over it is indisputable."


We applaud Netanyahu and his government for setting the record straight.  Send the Prime Minister an email supporting him in this decision.   While we have been warning that Obama would move against Israeli sovereignty over Jerusalem we are saddened that he has taken this course.


Once again we urge you get as many people as you can to sign the united Jerusalem petition.  It is the best way to keep informed about the battle for Jerusalem and to learn about ways you can help defend the capital of the Jewish people.

There is one city Jerusalem. There is not an east and west version of this holy city. Bibi needs to remain strong and not acquiesce to Obama on this issue. Jerusalem is the undivided capital of Israel and Jews must be allowed to live anywhere in this nation. It is important for the citizens of Israel to understand that even if the president of the US does not support you and even tries to give your land to the Palestinians, the American people do support you. We are 100% behind Israel and Netanyahu on this issue. Remain strong and continue to uphold Jerusalem as the undivided capital of Israel.

i PRESSED THE HYPERLINK FOR REACHING THE PRIME MINISTER BUT IT WILL NOT WORK. PERHAPS ADDRESS IS INCORRECT. IT'S BEEN THIS WAY FOR 2 DAYS. PLEASE FIX IT.

Why not have them wear yellow Stars? That is how you are treating them. Since when is an Israeli Ambassador summoned to the White House on the Shabbat--a Sacred and Religious and Holy Day and Sanctifying the Name of HaShem for them, the Jewish Peoples--to be disturbed over the building of a Housing Project on Land owned by Mr. Irving Moskowitz, and "yes," a "bingo tycoon," and why are you so upset about that? he workd hard, he earned his finances; do you covet what is his? Read the Torah, "La Tachmod beit reiecha..." ("You shall not covet your fellow's house. You shall not covet your fellow's wife, his manservant, his maidservant, his ox, his donkey, nor anything that belongs to your fellow.)...The meaning of the prohibition is that a person should regard another's possessions as totally beyond his possibility of acquisition." Do you want everything Jewish? Do you want it because it is Jewish? Jerusalem is Jewish--has always been! You have Mecca and Medina. Why do you want to come barging in and lay a claim to what is ours, what has always been ours, and what will always be ours, given to us by HaShem, L-rd G-d Almighty, The Creator, The One and Only? Are you so greedy and avaricious--which you are--that you want and try to demand that everything that is Jewish will be yours? You are creeping up on us. This is your strategic plan: to gradually come closer and closer, to make false treaties, and then when you have gotten all but the last tiny speck that you have always coveted, to go ahead and seek to devour it. I have read your Charter ("The Hamas Charter," 1988) and have heard all of the Palestinian Officials speaking, screaming for conquest, to destroy and defeat and kill everyone in the "Little Satan" and then in your Global Jihad--which is very, very, very ad infinitum under way-- to contnue onward and annihilate the Great United States of America, except that they call it "The Great Satan." Mr. Obama, President Obama, are you aware of this, are you aware, that is, do you know that they are only making "treaties" and acting as if they are your great buddies so that in the end--and twelve low-grade nuclear bombs placed around the Great United States of America would mean the end of our civilization greatly, at least as we know it now, at the very least--they can take our lives and conquer us. And the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Department of Homeland Security have each made the prediction that Al-Qaida or some organization like that most likely has at least one nuclear bomb in our country by now, though that was several years ago and who knows what the hypothesized number has gone to now. Pray there are none; but, that is the FBI's and the Department of Homeland Security's known predictions to date. But Mr. Obama, Our President, are you aware of what all of the Arabic and Muslim nations think about: the great return of a Caliphate to rule the world and to hold dominian over whatever is left of the United States, once they are done with us? They all await the day of their Victoty over the West and none of them is your ally, as well-intentioned, or as naive ("Arutz Sheva," "Iranian Expert: Obama Leading to Calmity," by Hillel Fendel, July3, 2009), as you might be. And many do truly believe that you dearly want to be a Great Leader, to leave his mark in History; but, Mr. Obama, I, for one, am in agreement with former Israeli Ambassador to Iran, Mr. Uri Lubrani, and I believe that "your policies are leading inexorably to a tragedy" ("Arutz Sheva," "Iranian Expert: Obama Leading to Calamity," by Hillel Fendel, July 3,2009, p.1). Mr. Obama, President, please listen to these words from the "tHamas Charter" (1988), and please do understand that HAMAS not only has its "charitable" and front organizations all around the globe with which to illicitly make money, but, please, also that they are so well-funded by such a variety of Arabic and Muslim nations, leading amongst them Iran, all of which are their bases for weapons-manufacturing, weapons purchases. the training of soldiers by such as the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps and Hizbullah elite forces, but also that they fill all of Gaza with a "hate industry" from "Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) [in order to] continue to inculcate the values of hate and support of terrorism in Palestinian children, viewed by those terrorist organizations as a highly important target audience ("Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center," "The hate industry: Hamas and the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ) continue to inculcate the values of hate and support of terrorism in Palestinian children, viewed by those terrorist organizations as a highly important target audience," June 11, 2009)" who then go on and become the future terrorists and homicide bombers as it is taught very early on to them as the most noble of noble causes; but, The Hamas Charter (1988), just at least to give you, Sir, a sense of their mind-sets and their lack of desire for any form of genuine peace negotiations except to grab more Israeli Land and then to move in closer and closer to Israel proper until they can envelop and murder each and every last Jew in Israel and then around the world, such that they say regarding what they call Palestine: "Its legal status is in accordance with Islamic law [ ]. It is subject to the same law to which are subject all the territories conquered by Muslims by force, for at the time of the conquest [the Muslim conquerors] consecrated it [i.e., Palestine] as a Muslim religious endowment for all Muslim generations until Resurrection Day." So, Israel had been conquered by the Muslim forces, but had never had it given to them as an inheritance, a Sacred Inheritance and a Birthright, as it had been given to the Jews, the Israelis, from the very ancient of days by HaShem, some 5767 years ago, preceeding any evidence of even a single Muslim person within Israel by a period of time of at least 4,000 years. The Arabs, the Muslims, the Palestinians, none of them, have any claim to the Land of Israel. It never was theirs and never will be. It has always been and will always be Sacred Israeli and Jewish Lands! Mr. Obama, please come to terms with all of this information. You are siding quite excessively with the Arabic, Muslim, and Palestinian Peoples. As I have reported to you previously, I recommend that you reconcile yourself with the True historical facts as they are, and never divide Jerusalem, not even the smallest grain of sand or of land that one could ever find of it. And Judea and Samaria, aside from those also being part of the Sacred Inheritance of Land that HaShem gave to all of the Jewish Peoples, the Jewish Peoples know that these are our Lands and are to forever be OURS. You may not cut out nor divide even the smallest, most frail piece of anything of Sacred and Holy Israeli Lands, for these are the Mountains from whence my forefathers arrived and dwelt among the peoples and made it Their Lands as was commanded to them to do by the Lord, HaShem.

Mr Netanyahu, keep strong against Mr Obama. Jerusalem belongs to the Jewish people and has done for thousands of years. Don't be bullied into giving in. Know also that the Lord God of Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps and that Israel is the apple of His eye. He will never forsake you.
KEEP STRONG against that bully!!!
Sharon, in NZ

This is nothing more than 'bullyboy' tactics. Pray that Netanyahu stays strong
abd that the Israeli public supports him. The Ambassador should not have 'broken' the Shabbos , as it wasn't a case of war being declared. Although on second thoughts perhaps this was in fact the first salvo being fired at Israel through diplomatic channels!
The only way to tackle this onesided attack on Israel is to educate the American PEOPLE. In the Guardian there was pompous indignation as to the audacity of Israel to reach out to the American people in trying to make their case. Reading between the lines this method of approach has upset the Liberal Establishment which indicates this is the way to go. The lies that have been continually peddled and now accepted as true can be changed by astute and true p.r. endorsed by HISTORIC FACTS. Perhaps now, more than ever Israel MUST get its side of the story over to the American public.
Obama's desire to be remembered as a great President will be half assured, as, if he continues to adopt this appeasing policy to the Arab/Muslim world then he will be known as the President who did the GREATEST DAMAGE TO THE WORLD.

I hope and pray that Mr. Netanyahu holds fast to what is RIGHT for Israel and the Jews. What "right" does Obama have to tell Israel what to do when he can't even take care of the US?? And beckoning the Ambassador on Shabbat just shows how either uncaring and disrespectful he is or how ignorant he is. Israel cannot capitulate on this point one iota! As we have seen all too many times...giving in to what others want Israel to do only causes more problems. The Arabs will not quit until Israel is gone. God won't let that happen!!

I wanted to say, there are many of us who support Israel and what has to be done in order to stop Iran. We do not agree with our government in dividing Jerusalem and trying to stop the Jewish people from building there. Many of us believe Israel should not have been made to give any land up for that matter. Stand strong no matter how much pressure is put on you by our gov't and other nations, there is many who are praying for Israel and Jerusalem. I apologize for our gov't.

All that Obama wants to do is failing. His apology for America branded him an idiot in the world of international relations. So he pulls out the old ace in the hole and recommences badgering his best ally in the Middle East. Good old whipping boy, Israel.The tide is turning and I hope and pray this prime minister will continue to assert Jewish dominance over their own territory. Everybody will benefit-Christians and Jews will have their holy shrines protected as will Muslims.. Jerusalem is and never will be on the table.

Obama needs to get a clue! He is iether deceived or deceiving. Personally, I believe he is deceiving. What ever the case, he is most definately disrespectful, on shabat? really! Obama should be carefull who he slaps in the face, it may come back to bite him in the butt!
