Freeze would be ethnic cleansing

Remember how angry Prime Minister Netanyahu was when Deputy Prime Minister Moshe "Boogie" Yaalon aligned himself with Moshe Feiglin? Well, it may be on its way to happening again.
Speaking to a packed audience at Jerusalem’s Great Synagogue, Ya’alon referred indirectly to a Haaretz report that Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu is willing to freeze all construction on government land in West Bank settlements if Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas resumes direct diplomatic negotiations.

“The demand for territory without Jews anywhere else would be called ethnic cleansing,” Ya’alon said. “We cannot accept a demand for ethnic cleansing in the land of Israel.”

Ya’alon said that Israel was under pressure from people who incorrectly believe the cause of the Middle East conflict is the building of homes in Judea and Samaria. He denounced that theory as “a corrupt way of thinking” and explained why the true cause of Middle East instability was the Islamic fundamentalism emanating from Iran.
He spoke about other topics too - read the whole thing. Finally an honest politician? I hope to hear soon what Feiglin thinks.

Considering reports Netanyahu offered Abu Bluff a partial freeze that was rejected, let's call this by its right name - apartheid.

Only it would be exclusively imposed on the Jews. The Arabs would be free to build without restrictions and live wherever they want.

An Israeli government that considers Arab racism a legitimate demand to be catered to has no right to decide anything in the name of the Jewish people.

What Feiglin knows but won't tell you is that Ya'alon some of the time talks loudly but carries a small stick.

If he was honest, he would have quit being Netanyahu's cover a long time ago.

Don't let them get away with this. Let the Arabs know that the price of a Jew-free Palestine® will be an Arab-free Israel.
