Abbas Going Crazy Says Netanyahu - NCYI Condemns Abbas Comments

Thursday - March 22, 2018 AFSI Looks Forward to Celebrating Israel's 70th Birthday in Israel     with the AFSI Chizuk Mission from April 17-25, 2018 CLICK HERE FOR THE ITINERARY- REGISTRATION IS CLOSED Crisis in Samaria - Bring This Impasse to an End! Yossi Dagan, Samaria Regional Council Head Civil Administration and Border Police arrive with tractors to demolish Netiv HaAvot Samaria Regional Council head Yossi Dagan demands that Prime Minister Netanyahu and Finance Minister Kahlon act to stop the staff sanctions at the Civil Administration, sanctions that interfere with the administration's work and harm Jewish settlement in Judea and Samaria. Dagan says, "Jewish 'settlement' is in a real crisis and we must say it clearly...our residents in Samaria, Judea, and Benyamin - religious, secular, haredi, all sectors; half a million people - cannot receive services to promote construction; cannot receive environmental protection services" "It's possible to have disagreements, but it is inconceivable that a half million Israeli citizens, along with their children, their kindergartens, their schools, and other services they need are ignored and the Treasury doesn't even bother to find time to solve the crisis," Dagan states. Source - Arutz Sheva Netanyahu: Abbas Going Crazy - NCYI Condemns Abbas Comments The National Council of Young Israel (NCYI) condemned Palestinian Authority (PA) chairman Mahmoud Abbas after he belittled U.S. Ambassador to Israel David Friedman, calling him the "son of a dog." "The National Council of Young Israel strongly condemns the outrageous comments made by PA President Mahmoud Abbas against U.S. Ambassador David Friedman, which came after the Ambassador denounced Abbas's failure to condemn several terrorist attacks that resulted in the loss of three Israeli lives," said NCYI in a statement. "The National Council of Young Israel believes this response epitomizes the long overdue need for passage of the Taylor Force Act in the Senate to start reducing aid to the Palestinian Authority, as not only are they ungrateful for the aid, but they even publicly lambast the representative of the U.S. in Israel." AFSI supports NCYI's swift condemnation of Abbas' comments - comments that speak very poorly of him as a "peace partner." This strengthens AFSI's ongoing advocacy for the application of SOVEREIGNTY to Judea and Samaria. PM Netanyahu offered his take on Abbas' outrageous comments: "Something is happening here that has not happened in decades; perhaps it never happened since the Palestinian Authority was established: The American administration has stopped spoiling the Palestinians. It is demanding from them basic things that should have been demanded a long time ago: Recognize the State of Israel's right to exist, with the State of Israel being the national state of the Jewish people, stop supporting terrorism, and stop financing and encouraging terrorism." Plans for US Embassy Move Pushing Forward Finance Minister Moshe Kahlon (Kulanu) instructed the National Planning and Building Council to convene urgently to promote, as soon as possible, an exemption from the permit required to transfer the United States Embassy to Jerusalem.

Israel's decision to go public comes after repeated calls in recent months by Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu for the United States and international community to take tougher action on Iran, Syria's ally. Photos above show the destroyed Syrian nuclear reactor. Israel's actions in 2007 confirm it will not tolerate threats of any kind to its sovereign nation. Source - Reuters. Full story HERE. Iran Deal - The End is Near? World Israel News (WIN) is reporting that US Senator Bob Corker says he expects Trump to pull out of the Iran deal and retired US Army Special Forces Sgt. Jim Hanson weighs in on the possible impact of such a move. Video courtesy of Fox News Channel. Senator Chuck Schumer (D-NY) says he will do "everything in his power" to pass the Taylor Force Act DAYENU!!! STOP STALLING! Pass the Taylor Force Act A report this week says that there is some hesitation that cutting off U.S. funding would destabilize the P.A., leading to its possible collapse and replacement in the West Bank with terror groups like Hamas. We don't think this is an excuse to put a complete stop to funding terrorists and their families. Funding the PA's cause - killing Jews - keeps the problem going. It's long overdue for this matter to be given far more serious and swift action in order to put a stop to the terrorism. Source - Jewish News Syndicate AFSI ACTION ALERT MANY SUGGESTIONS ARE BEING MADE TO STOP THE TERRORISM. THEY SHOULD ALL BE EXPLORED - BUT ONE THING IS CERTAIN - PA TERRORISM MUST NOT BE TOLERATED AND MUST COME TO AN END. THE PASSOVER SEASON OF FREEDOM IS FAST APPROACHING. ISRAEL MUST FREE ITSELF FROM THIS SCOURGE OF TERROR. DAYENU!!!!! It is more important than ever for the U.S. Senate to follow the path of the House of Representatives and pass the Taylor Force Act which would withhold U.S. Funds to the PA while they continue to pay terrorists and their families for their murderous deeds. Call the offices of Congressman Eliot Engel (202) 225-2464 and Senator Mitch McConnell (202) 224-2541, to urge them to get the Bill passed.  Taylor Force, z"l, a West Point graduate who fought in Iraq and Afghanistan, was brutally knifed in Israel by a PA terrorist while touring in Tel Aviv/Jaffa. Taylor Force is only one of the many victims of Arab terrorism. This week-end's toll of victims adds three more, with an additional two soldiers critically wounded. We pray for their recovery. Following the money and closing off the spigot of funding for the terrorists is the only logical thing to do. What Happens in Saudi Arabia... An excerpt from Sunday night's CBS 60 Minutes interview with Saudi Arabia's Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman shows him offering a positive outlook, though lacking in detail, on working toward peace in the MIddle East. What happens in Saudi Arabia could influence the overall peace process as well as well as the dealings with Iran. AFSI appreciates the constructive tone from Crown Prince bin Salman. However, we do not expect that his overtures can mollify the situation with Abbas and the PA. There is NO WAY the PA can qualify as a "peace partner".
