Jim Vinyard speaks up about Amona. Rabbis, Jewish Media and Radio still silent

b"d

Please read this letter to Olmert that I have been waiting to read from Jewish Leaders written by Jim Vinyard a Christian Minister. Please forward it to your Rabbi's and to Nachum Segal and to the Jewish Newspapers saying that most Jews have no idea of what happened in Amona because the Jewish media have been relatively silent. No Passionate letter such as this to wake up people as to the reality of what really happened.

The following is an open letter to be passed around to all Rabbanim and Jewish Leaders.
Are you aware that the kids at Amona were beaten with clubs smashed on the heads, both girls and boys were attacked on their reproductive organs to the point where there were some that are worried about infertility and there was sexual molestation as well. You can see live coverage on http://shemittahrediscovered.blogspot.com/2006/02/videos-of-brutal-police-attacks-in.html  These youth who separated themselves by gender because of Tzniut considerations love Eretz Yisroel and were willing to sacrifice their own lives. They were protesting peacefully the expulsion of Jews from their homes in Eretz Yisroel.

Why haven't the Rabbanim spoken up for the Covenant that Eretz Yisroel is the inheritance of Am Yisroel. Why has there been no statement regarding the Roadmap which is mutually exclusive with the Covenant? Shtika Kehodaya. Why is there silence when innocent youth are being attacked for their love of Eretz Yisroel?

The root of Lashon Hara came about from the Religious Leaders, the Gedoilim, of a generation that preferred to stay in the spiritual desert than to enter Eretz Yisroel.

I am sharing the pain of the youth who were attacked. My thoughts are how are they feeling that no one is speaking up for them among the Gedoilim. It's silent here in America about the Covenant and about the horrible atrocities that were perpetrated against them. Their bitter cries are piercing the Shamayim. Yet the Jewish media is silent, the Rabbanim are silent and most caring Yidden who would be horrified if they really knew what happened don't have any clue.

If this is interpreted that I am making light of Rabbanim and Torah Leaders then I bring my case to the Ribono Shel Olam. And the truth is I don't even want to be a winner. Because if I win on this then we all lose. Let me be wrong. Perhaps the Rabbanim really are speaking up for Eretz Yisroel and that they have a love and desire to keep the Mitzvoth that can only be done in Eretz Yisroel. If the desire was there, then there would be no question that the Land is only meant for those that can bring forth the Kedusha of the Land by keeping the Commandments. I pray to G-d that I will be proven wrong Beezrat Hashem..

Why hasn't there been a Mishlachat of Rabbanim from Agudas Yisroel of America to Eretz Yisroel to Rav Shteinman, Rav Eliashiv, Rav Kanievsky etc. asking these Gedoilim why hasn't a statement been made regarding the Covenant? The world interprets the silence that Orthodox Jewry has no problem with the Roadmap plan and with a Palestinian State in the heartland of our forefathers.
