From the mouths of babes

Sometimes adults need to pay attention to teenagers. This below is a note written from a 16 year old to the nationalist voters of Israel that was published today in Israel National News. It's in reference to the National Union face-to-face mission to move voters to the right.
• We, the Youth - gave up our summer vacation and went around giving out orange ribbons.
• We, the Youth - were in Kfar Maimon, where you asked us not to go wild, so we didn't.
• We, the Youth - sat with self-sacrifice on roads and highways in order toprevent the expulsion.
• We, the Youth - were arrested and tried by a twisted system of "law andorder."
• We, the Youth - sat for days and weeks in prison, sometimes in indescribably harsh conditions.
• We, the Youth - marched for many kilometers in the fields of the south inorder to save the Gush.
• We, the Youth - lived in crowded conditions in Gush Katif because webelieved that in this way we could prevent the uprooting.
• We, the Youth - we were hit in our heads and all over our bodies in Amonaby wild men known as "law enforcers."

And you, the adults - and excuse me for the generalization - mainly supported us from behind. You told us, "Yasher koach,great job, what wonderful youth!" You told us, "We have jobs and family." Andyou know something? You were right. At that time, what we did was our job.

But now, the moment of truth has arrived. And now we say to you that the"Face to Face" campaign is your job. Now it's your turn.

• Now it's your turn. Because you told us, "You have to look at the long-range."
• Now it's your turn. Because there's no chance that the average secular person will pay real attention to a young 16-year-old.
• Now it's your turn. Because to tell the truth, it's hard for us to know how to explain and persuade someone who doesn't believe.
• Now it's your turn. Because according to the natural course of events, if a Kadima government is formed, it won't leave a single stone in place here.
• Now it's your turn. Because if you stay at home now, it's not clear that you'll have a home to stay in later.
• Now it's your turn. Because if you say, "I can't leave my job," how do you know that later you'll have a job at all? - see entry for "Gush Katif residents."
• Now it's your turn. Because it's better to go face-to-face with the residents of Petach Tikvah than with those in the black uniforms.
• Now it's your turn, and please do it with all your souls, so that it won't soon be our turn again.

Please, mom and dad, go out to Tel Aviv or somewhere else today. We'll take care of the rest.

I hope they're listening. If a Kadima led leftwing coalition wins the elections Jews will be ethnically cleansed from Judea faster than you can read this blog.

If the youth in this country were even half as dedicated to such a cause. I can't imagine. I pray that Israel is not cleansed from their home land. Much like the leftist here that want to take over this country. The only way to stop this destruction of The Chosen Race is to ( I hate to say it) go to war will all of the groups that want to erase them. With our help and the will of G-d we can achieve victory!!!
