Yesha Supporters stay pure like the Maccabees. Warning from Ruth Matar

 
bs"d
 
We must be extremely careful to keep that jug of oil pure untainted. Our fight for Judea, Samaria and Jerusalem must be true to Torah every step of the way.  We can not risk even for a little bit for the sake of being popular or successful  to align ourselves with those whose message may sound good but upon investigation promotes agendas that is against the Torah and wish to use our alliance to further their own agendas which are contrary to ours.  Hashem is all powerful and we need to ally ourselves with His Torah. If we align with such powerful forces under their umbrella we run the risk of having our own message diluted. If they wish to promote our agenda publicly we should remain distinct rather than get  swallowed up. Mr. X apparently has no compunctions about using his constituencies.  He will promote himself to Israel activist groups as being an Israel activist and says he is against territorial concessions.  He knows that this is what we wish to hear so then we will then join with him under his umbrella.  He will then promote to his Christian Evangelicals supporters that he wishes to promote J as the savior telling THEM what they wish to hear in order to get their support. 
 
The following was taken from the website of Shalom International.  This is not being told to the Jewish activists obviously.
 
 
THE REFUSAL TO COMPROMISE

Frank and the Shalom team were straight in their declaring to Jewish leadership: "We will love and stand by you unconditionally. But we can never compromise our conviction that Jesus is the source of this love and the Messiah of Israel and Savior of the world." Many Jewish leaders applauded the first part—but distanced themselves when there would be no compromise concerning Jesus. Yet many Jewish friends quietly applauded a ministry that could not be bought.

Ruth Matar in the following letter shows how he was deceitful in order to win her support.  He told me and her and countless others that he is not part of Hillary Clinton's campaign yet he is still actively campaigning with Hillary. He is a politician. Read Yedidya Atlas' article below regarding Hillary Clinton's rush to support a Palestinian State yet she will fight for Jerusalem in order  to win her votes against Bush. 

When we stay true to Torah we are protected from being used and abused.

 
I APOLOGIZE
(for being gullible)
 
Letter from Ruth Matar (Women in Green) Jerusalem
Thursday, November 22, 2007
 
Dear Friends,
 
In my latest Letter from Jerusalem, of Sunday, November 18th, I issued a warning asking you to carefully investigate the sponsors of any demonstration against the Annapolis Conference before joining.
 
I wrote as follows:
 
"In this connection I must issue a very important warning. Investigate the sponsors of any planned demonstration in Annapolis very carefully before joining. For instance, it has come to my attention that some organizations which are not working completely in Israel's interest, (no names mentioned), are possibly trying to recruit people for their own agendas. One organization that asked Women in Green to join them in their demonstration, turned out to be affiliated with the Hillary Clinton Campaign and the promotion of gay rights in the US."
 
I received mostly supportive e-mails, but a few responses were from people who were incensed at my warning. 
 
I do NOT apologize for issuing the warning.
 
However, I do apologize profusely for not immediately recognizing the incredible deceit attempted upon us. As for my mentioning the organization's association with the struggle for gay rights-- it is neither my business, nor any interest of Women in Green.
 
I feel the need to share the details of the almost successful "sting" on Women in Green by a nameless organization, headed by a nameless "Mr. X", which brought me to issue a most necessary warning.
 
THE BACKGROUND:
 
I received an e-mail on Nov. 4, with the subject: "Defend Jerusalem" Rallies. "Mr. X" wrote as follows:
 
Dear Ruth Mater: (my name is Matar…)
 
Please consider doing your teach-in and be at our Rally in front of the White House on 11/25/07 and also to let your list know of our efforts.
 
We need your help to get the word out.
 
Thanks in Shalom,
 
Signed (Mr. X)
Organization X
Phone number
 
I was pleased to get this e-mail, especially since Mr. X wrote that he had already obtained a permit for a demonstration on November 25, 2007, from noon to 5 PM, at Lafayette Park across from the White House in Washington D.C.
 
As he requested, I phoned Mr. X at the number he gave in his e-mail, to tell him that I unfortunately could not be in the United States on the date in question, but that Women in Green in the United States might be interested in participating in this November 25 rally, especially since he had already obtained a permit.
 
However, I told Mr. X that I was not familiar with his work, or that of his organization, and that I needed to know more about both before I could make a commitment for the Women in Green. I stressed that we could work together only if we were 100% certain that we are on the same political wavelength, namely that the Land of Israel is the Biblical Inheritance of the Jewish People, and that no parts of Jerusalem or Israel can be bartered away at the Annapolis Conference.
 
This is where the incredible deceit of Mr. X comes into play. He assured me that this was exactly his point of view, and that we were completely on the same wavelength. I agreed, therefore, to alert our people in the United States about the November 25 rally in Washington, DC. I even foolishly gave Mr. X the phone numbers of some of our key people in the States.
 
Shortly thereafter, I received a great number of phone calls and emails from Women in Green supporters in the United States, who demanded to know how I could be so naive and careless as to suggest joining forces with Mr. X without knowing his true orientation. This orientation, they said, is diametrically opposed to that of Women in Green.
 
They informed me that Mr. X is closely identified with the Hillary Clinton for President campaign, and that he was apparently trying to hitch a ride on the popularity of the Women in Green organization in the United States.
 
After receiving this information, I again phoned Mr. X and accused him of not being up front with me, since by no means could I be considered to be an admirer nor a supporter of Hillary Clinton. I bluntly told Mr. X that I felt he had been rather deceitful with our organization. I warned him that under no circumstances should he dare to make use of the name of Women in Green nor the names of Ruth or Nadia Matar.
 
Incredibly, he told me to calm down, that in his opinion no harm had been done, since he himself is no longer as active in the Hillary Clinton campaign as he had been heretofore. He even had the effrontery to tell me that there was, therefore, no reason to end the cooperation we had discussed in our first phone conversation.
 
I now know from further study of the Internet, that he is as prominent as ever in the Hillary Clinton campaign. I found the following letter from Mr. X to a Ms. Y on the Internet, dated November 11, 2007, just a few days ago:
 
"Hillary has dropped 11 points since the Philly debate. It's been two weeks of bad news getting worse. I'm organizing the following rallies to keep Jerusalem united, which Hillary already made a statement on in Sept. This would be an opportunity for her to support keeping Jerusalem united with us at our rally in D.C. or Annapolis, bring the media and put yourself in the middle of the Summit that Bush/Rice/Olmert are pushing that only endanger Israel and the U.S.
 
Please let me know,
Mr. X"

This exchange between Mr. X and Ms. Y clearly proves that there is more concern with Hillary's campaign than the danger faced by Jerusalem and Israel at the Annapolis Conference!
 
Women in Green have not as yet chosen to support any candidate for President in the 2008 elections. However, I can say with iron-clad certainty that Women in Green will not support the candidacy of Hillary Clinton.
 
Why am I so adamantly opposed to Hillary Clinton as President of the United States?
 
Personally, I will never forget or forgive Hillary Clinton for her relationship with Yasser Arafat's wife, Suha. At a conference in November of 1999, while on a state visit to the Middle East, Hillary Clinton sat by silently while Suha publicly told vicious lies about the Jewish People. When Suha ended her poisonous tirade, Hillary Clinton jumped up to hug and kiss her.

When she was subsequently criticized for this bizarre behavior, Hillary Clinton said she was unable to understand the translation into English of Suha's speech, due to malfunction of her ear phones, or some such nonsense!

The following is an article entitled: "ISRAEL'S FRIEND OR FOE?" about Hillary Clinton, by Yedidya Atlas. This article from November 7, 2000, article details what Hillary "Terrorist Enabler" Clinton did that showed who she really is. Here is something that you should never forget about her.

ISRAEL'S FRIEND OR FOE?
by Yedidya Atlas Nov. 7 '00 / Heshvan 9, 5761

Tomorrow, American-Jewish voters will make their decision whether to cast their ballot in New York's Senate race for Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton, or for Republican candidate Rep. Rick Lazio. If Israel's security is a deciding factor in their considerations, then a review of their respective positions BEFORE they became candidates and began running after the key Jewish voting bloc reveals basic differences between the two.

WHAT DID THEY SAY BEFORE?
An in-depth study of Congressman Rick Lazio's eight-year track record voting in the House of Representatives on issues related to Israel shows that he has been a 100% supporter of Israel. A member of the Republican Israel Caucus and a member of the House Budget Committee, Lazio has been a consistent supporter of foreign aid bills and the continuation of US aid to Israel. He has also been an outspoken supporter of American recognition of Jerusalem as the undivided Capital of Israel ¬ including signing a Congressional letter to the President urging the transfer of the US Embassy to Jerusalem, and not signing a Congressional letter calling on the President to pressure Israel to stop construction of Jerusalem's Har Homa neighborhood. Lazio has also co-sponsored two pieces of legislation that call for official U.S. recognition and construction of an embassy in Jerusalem. If Israel is the issue, then his record - which is on the record - speaks for itself.

HILLARY RUSHED TO SUPPORT PALESTINIAN STATE
And Hillary Rodham-Clinton? Well, in May 1998, she told a youth conference on Middle East peace in Villars, Switzerland, that she supports the eventual creation of an independent Palestinian state. Her spokesperson, Marsha Berry told reporters: "These remarks are her own personal view." Then, in November 1999, while on a purported State visit to the Middle East, she publicly appeared with Yasser Arafat's wife Suha. With Hillary at her side, Suha Arafat made the deliberately false allegation that "Our [Palestinian] people have been submitted to the daily and intensive use of poisonous gas by the Israeli forces, which has led to an increase in cancer cases among women and children." Mrs. Arafat also accused Israel of contaminating much of the water sources used by Palestinians with "chemical materials" and poisoning Palestinian women and children with toxic gases.

Instead of reacting with outrage, Hillary Clinton sat by silently - and gave her a hug and a kiss when she finished speaking. Later, many hours after the event, and only after a media furor put her on the spot for what many view as a bit more than a mere political "faux pas", Mrs. Clinton called on "all sides" to refrain from "inflammatory rhetoric and baseless accusations" - including Israel, whose leaders made no such accusations. Glossing over this remarkably repugnant affair, Mrs. Clinton has yet to specifically contradict and denounce the monstrous lies uttered by Yasser Arafat's wife in her presence.

MONEY FROM THE AMERICAN MUSLIM ALLIANCE
Hence, it is no wonder that the American Muslim Alliance chapter in Massachusetts held what it called a "successful fundraiser" for First Lady Hillary Clinton at the Park Plaza Hotel in Boston on June 13, 2000. AMA Massachusetts Chair Tahir Ali said afterwards, "We are attempting to send an important message to all AMA chapters: we must support all who have [Muslim] interests at heart, regardless of what part of the country they are running in."

EMERSON'S TESTIMONY
According to Steve Emerson, a well-known investigative journalist specializing in militant Islamic organizations, the AMA's leaders "have sanctioned terrorism, published anti-Semitic statements, and repeatedly hosted conferences that were forums for denunciations of Jews and exhortations to wage jihad." Faced with pressure on the matter, Mrs. Clinton announced on Oct. 25th that she was returning the $50,000 in campaign contributions raised for her by the AMA. She failed to give a credible explanation as to why it took her more than four months ¬ from June 13th until October 25th ¬ until she saw it necessary to return the money.

Mr. Emerson, in a recent Wall Street Journal article, noted: "As first lady, Mrs. Clinton began in 1996 an outreach program to Muslim leaders in the U.S. With America's Muslim population at some six million and growing, an effort to include the community's leaders in the mainstream of American politics is unquestionably a worthy undertaking. But curiously, nearly all of the leaders with whom Mrs. Clinton elected to meet came from Islamic fundamentalist organizations. A review of the statements, publications and conferences of the groups Mrs. Clinton embraced shows unambiguously that they have long advocated or justified violence. By meeting with these groups, the first lady lent them legitimacy as "mainstream" and "moderate"."

But this should not be unexpected, considering Mrs. Clinton's past radical affiliations. During the 1980's, ultra-liberal lawyer Hillary Rodham-Clinton served on the board of the New World Foundation, which funneled money to the Palestine Liberation Organization, at a time when the PLO was officially recognized by the United States as a terrorist organization.

Similarly, in February 1996, Hillary hosted a reception at the White House for leaders of Hamas-supporting groups such as the American Muslim Council and the Council on American-Islamic Relations. And in January, 1998, Hillary hosted another White House reception honoring Muslim leaders and the Muslim Public Affairs Council who defended militant Islamic fundamentalism and also supported radical Islamic groups.

THE REAL HILLARY
This, then, is the real Hillary Rodham-Clinton. An ambitious woman willing to utter any banal cliche on behalf of "Israel's security" to placate unaware New York Jewish voters, but one whose pre-Senate race record on Israel is appalling. It's a record of supporting the terrorist PLO, even before the 1993 signing of the first Oslo Agreement on the White House lawn, of ignoring blatant calumny heaped on Israel by Suha Arafat, of supporting the creation of a Palestinian PLO State, of hosting and legitimizing extremist Islamic groups in the United States. Most recently, it included taking campaign contributions from these very same evil, anti-Semitic organizations - until being caught with her hand in the extremist Islamic cookie jar. This is the very same Hillary Rodham-Clinton who now claims to be Israel's friend.

Her record says otherwise.

Dear friends, the Jewish state is in greater danger than in any time since the 1948 War of Independence. May G-d help us to be successful in our fight against the gang rape of Israel by its many powerful enemies.

With Blessings and Love for Israel,

Ruth Matar
