1944 SAISON -- 2006 SAISON

copyright (c) 2006 by Mrs. Nadia Matar

Nadia Matar was wounded today, along with MKs Aryeh Eldad and Effie Eitam, and hundreds of Jewish boys and girls, in the Israel Government Einsatzgruppen storm trooper assault on the Jewish Pioneering Community of Amona, on orders of Current Dictator Olmert and his fellow tyrants, who walk in the footsteps of their master, Butcher of Gush Katif Ariel Sharon, now a catheterized vegetable in Ein Kerem Hadassah Hospital. The State of Israel as we have the misfortune to now know it is rapidly passing out of existence. Soon missiles from Hamas, Hizbollah, Syria and Iran will fall on Tel Aviv, Haifa and other centers of power of the current regime.

Now it's official. After the statements by Olmert the week before last and by Inspector-General Karadi last week, there no longer can be any doubts: the Saison, the "hunting season" against the Jews in the Land of Israel, is evident to all. As Yehudah Lapidot tells us in his book "The Saison: The Hunting Down of Brothers", "the appellation Saison (hunting season in French) was applied to the attempt by the Haganah in [19]44-45 to eliminate I.Z.L. [Irgun Zevai Le'umi also known as Etzel]".

In order to realize the goals of the Saison, the Haganah used almost every means at its disposal, that included kidnappings and protracted interrogations (of Etzel members and supporters), that at times were accompanied by extreme torture; expulsion from places of employment and schools; taking Jews forcibly from apartments, and more. The most drastic step, however, that aroused stormy controversies in the Yishuv (the pre-State Jewish community in Land of Israel), was the surrendering to the British C.I.D. (plainclothes detective branch) of those suspected of belonging to the Revisionist movement in general and to Etzel in particular. shock

The persecution of members and supporters of the Revisionist movement reached its peak shortly after the establishment of the State of Israel, when Ben-Gurion ordered the sinking of the Altalena, and gave the order to shoot at the Jews on the ship. Sixteen Jews on the sinking Altalena and who were swimming towards the Tel Aviv shore were murdered in cold blood. Their only "crime" was belonging to the movement of Menachem Begin. Ben-Gurion gave the order; Yitzhak Rabin was happy to carry it out. The "holy cannon" was the name given by Ben-Gurion's people to the weapon that they used to sink the Altalena in their implementation of this despicable political murder.

Ben-Gurion never ceased to regard the Etzel as a political rival that must be eliminated. In collaboration with the British, he initiated a campaign to persecute the Etzel's members and supporters. The Saison and the Altalena episode silenced the Revisionists for many years.

At present, the entire Jewish-national camp, headed by the public of Judea, Samaria, and Gaza, constitutes a threat to the rule of the Left. Demographically, the Left, with an average of one child, or a maximum of two children, has no successor generation. These children receive a shoddy, spoiled education, without Judaism or Zionism, that turns them into Hebrew-speaking non-Jews: without roots, without knowing what it is to be a Jew, without an understanding of what they are doing here in Israel. In contrast, the many children (God bless them) of the Jewish camp (both the religious and the traditional) are educated to love of the Torah, People and Land, and, before we know it, with God's help, they will be the majority here.

The Left is panic-stricken. It still controls the key positions in the country: The Media, State Attorney's Office, High Court of Justice and Knesset -- but its days in power are numbered. It needs to silence the Jewish-national camp, once and for all. Flooding the country with hundreds of thousands of non-Jews from the U.S.S.R. was the first attempt to block the demographic revolution of the Jewish camp. But, a miracle occurred, the majority of those from the U.S.S.R., both Jews and non-Jews, who know what Bolshevism is, and who instinctively understand just who the Arabs are and what they want, voted for the Right! The first scheme to preserve Leftist rule was unrealized.

The Oslo Accords were the second attempt in this direction, when the Oslo architects gave cities of refuge in Judea, Samaria, and Gaza to Arafat and his band of murderers, along with weapons and ammunition. The Oslo criminals hoped that the members of the P.L.O. and Hamas would only use these weapons against the Jewish pioneers in Judea, Samaria, and Gaza, turn their lives into hell on earth, and thereby force the Jews to leave Judea, Samaria, and Gaza of their own free will and return to within the 1967 lines.

In this manner, Shimon Peres and Ben-Gurion's other successors hoped to crush the settlers in Judea, Samaria, and Gaza, and, through them, the entire Jewish camp. This would have been a cheap and easy solution for the problem of the Jews of Judea, Samaria, and Gaza and their supporters. But, once again, things went wrong: The P.L.O. and Hamas could not restrain themselves, and, instead of heeding the advice of extreme Leftists in Israel and murdering only Jews within Judea, Samaria, and Gaza, those stupid Arabs also began to blow themselves up within little Israel and murder Israelis!

Thus, the Arabs let everyone understand that they do not draw any distinction between the "settler" from Tel Aviv and the "settler" from Ofra. Moreover, the Jews of Judea, Samaria, and Gaza were not deterred. Like the Children of Israel in Egypt, "the more they were oppressed, the more they increased" and were strengthened. In their Jewish pioneering communities in Judea, Samaria, and Gaza -- the Right gained power, this time under the leadership of Israeli war hero Ariel Sharon.

The Left no longer knows what to do with itself. It is really losing it. The years pass, but they have not succeeded in neutralizing the Jewish camp. To the contrary! The People is increasingly convinced that it is the policy of the national camp that is correct. This is the reason why Sharon was elected, and not Mitzna.

What did the Left do? It used Ariel Sharon to implement the mission of neutralizing the Jewish camp. It threatened Sharon that if he would not realize the policy of the Left, his sons would go to prison. Ariel Sharon, a totally corrupt and egotistical person, did not hesitate to cooperate with them.

Overnight, people such as Peres, Sharon, Beilin, Olmert, Livni, Mofaz and others coalesced into a one-dimensional monster, a Party called "Forward" [Kadima]. With determination but without sensitivity, it would quickly crush the national camp, and support the continued rule of the Left. Of course, they still do not openly proclaim this as their aim, they sell the public all kinds of stories, as if "the disengagement is essential to stop the 'Arab demographic problem'". But anyone who uses a bit of his intelligence knows that the truth is different, and that this is a contemptible plan to curb the Jewish demographic problem.

First, the Sharon-Peres monster decides to disconnect the Jews from their oxygen: The Jewish Pioneering Communities of Gush Katif and northern Samaria. The mission is carried out with humiliating and intolerable ease. The mamlakhti (state-oriented) and naive Jewish victim dances and embraces the hangman.

Color returns to the cheeks of the Left. "Just look, at long last, we finally moderated our bitter rival", they think to themselves. "We beat the "right" with a knockout. Now we can easily toss him out of all the Jewish Pioneering Communities of Judea, Samaria, and Gaza". We will disperse them, defeated and beaten, throughout little Israel -- without assistance, without support, without compensation, without any possibility of rising again. Once and for all, this will take care of our problem with the Jews. Now we can return to the 1949 lines and establish a bi-national state. "At long last, the nations of the world will love us. Without Judea, Samaria, and Gaza, and without the annoying Jewish camp".

It appears, however, that the Left's rejoicing was premature. The Jewish victim is still breathing! And its youth even kicks! In the attempt to destroy the home in Neveh Daniel and the distribution of the evacuation orders in Hebron, the youth did not act as in Gush Katif. They did not dance or embrace, but dared to raise their head and declare: "Another expulsion of Jews from Israel? Never again! This time we won't let them! Our eyes have been opened. We understand that they want to eliminate us, as the first phase in the elimination of the entire Jewish state. No! Here's where we draw the line!"

The Sharon-Peres-Olmert-Livni monster is losing its cool. This cannot go on! How dare the Jews continue to be faithful to their principles? How dare they speak about Greater Israel? Now, the Olmert-Livni-Mazuz-Diskin-Halutz-Karadi gang takes off the gloves and broadcasts to all: Any Jew who is unwilling to commit suicide with dances and hugs -- we will crush him, we will trample him, we will persecute him, we will spray him with tear gas and pepper spray, and even shoot him, if necessary.

Although Ben-Gurion had wanted, for a long time, to get rid of Herut and Lehi (the fighters for Israel), the official excuse for initiating the Saison was the assassination of Lord Moyne in Cairo. Moyne had been appointed by the British as Minister of State for the Middle East, and from his headquarters in Cairo he was responsible for the implementation of the White Paper policy. Lehi regarded him as responsible for the expulsion of the "illegal" immigrants' ships, decided to kill him.

But, as we said, this was just an excuse to begin the Saison. If there had been no assassination, Ben-Gurion would have found some other pretext. The same holds true for us today. Olmert's official reason for his public and grandiose declaration of war against the settlers of Judea, Samaria, and Gaza as a whole is the "violence of the lawbreakers in Hebron". Anyone with eyes in his head, however, realizes that this is merely a pretext, and this is actually a continuation of the Saison that began in 1944: The Left's organized and ongoing persecution of the national camp.

Olmert's speech the week before last with his demand for forceful action against the "Jewish lawbreakers" took us back 62 years, to 1944, when, in a Histadrut convention, Ben-Gurion called for the elimination of the Herut movement, for which he gave operative orders.

To quote him::

"We have been requested by the supreme bodies -- the Zionist Executive and the Va'ad Le'umi -- to vomit them [the supporters and members of the I.Z.L.] from our midst, and I want to translate this demand into the language of reality and action. If a young man, a member of these gangs or a supporter of them, works in any factory or office, the workers and the other office employees are required to expel him..... I intentionally chose this harsh example, everyone who is connected to these gangs, everyone who supports them -- not necessarily if he uses a pistol or throws a bomb, but anyone who disseminates their literature and pastes their announcements -- he must be removed from his place of work [...]. The same holds true if he studies in a secondary school or other [school] -- and not only if he himself participates in acts of murder and robbery, but even if he brings the terrorists' unclean literature to youth, and disseminates it among them. He must be expelled from the school, so that he will know, and his siblings will know, and his parents will know, that the public rises up against these crimes, that endanger, not only the individual, but the nation as a whole.

"The second thing that is required of us: Not to give them refuge and shelter. We must tell every Jew in Israel to withhold shelter and refuge from all the members of the gangs and from all their supporters. It is forbidden to give refuge to these criminals who endanger our future. And the third thing: Not to surrender to their threats! We must create such a regime in the nation that they will not be able to threaten anyone. Every boy and girl will be instructed by the school in which they study that if these gangs come to his father and mother to demand money -- the proper place is to be immediately informed; if he does not know of any address -- he is to go to the police".

As regards collaboration with the British, Ben-Gurion said:

"To the extent that the British authorities and the police are interested in the destruction of terror [let there be no misunderstanding, (Ben-Gurion did not speak of the Arab terror, he referred to the I.Z.L. as the "terror" gangs -- N.M.), "I repeat, our interest in the elimination of terror is greater and more vital that of the British government".

Compare Ben-Gurion's speech with the statements by Olmert, the head of the General Security Service Yuval Diskin, and the Chief of the General Staff Dan Halutz in a special meeting of the security-legal leadership before the evacuations in Hebron, in Amona, and in the other outpost Jewish Pioneering Communities. "The Jewish lawbreakers" threaten the existence of the state; they declared. They engage in a "dangerous ideological criminal activity". They called for stiffer enforcement measures against these Jewish "rioters"; announced that they would increase the use of expulsion orders and administrative detention; and said that they would enlarge the police force in Judea and Samaria -- not in order to stop the Arab terrorists who continue to fire Kassam rockets at Israel and murder Jews on the roads, but to smite, to persecute, and to repress these "idealistic" Jews. Add to this Karadi's statement about the possibility of shooting at Jewish pioneers demonstrating for the territorial integrity of Israel, and we have a return to the time of the Saison in 1944.

This frontal attack on the Jewish Pioneers of Judea, Samaria, and Gaza seems daunting. Every newscast, every radio program, and press - which attacks and besmirches Jews loyal to Israel, would not shame the anti-Semitic authors of the Protocols of the Elders of Zion. We can really identity with what Ya'akov Shavit wrote in his book "The Hunting Season", "In practice, the organized public opinion turned the I.Z.L. into a group that was isolated, shunned, and mercilessly persecuted". The I.Z.L. was described as "insane Jewish fascism" that would lead to the suicide of the Yishuv and "therefore it deserves an eye for an eye, and a tooth for a tooth!" This is the attitude of the ruling Leftist elite today, against the loyalists of Israel.

Accordingly, in light of the renewed Saison, it is important for us to remind ourselves and our wonderful youth that such things already happened, and that we have nothing to fear. We should tell everyone that, in the end, the Saison of 1944 did not succeed, and this time, as well, we will not allow them to succeed. Despite the informing, the arrests, the torture, and the surrendering of underground members to the British authorities; despite the Altalena; and despite the paralysis of the national camp, in the long run Ben-Gurion and his band failed to eliminate the I.Z.L.

Actually, the opposite is the case. The British eventually left Israel, thanks to the activities of the I.Z.L. and the Lehi. Today we -- the camp of Israel loyalists -- comprise a tremendous camp that continues to realize the idea and vision: That all of the Land of Israel belongs to the People of Israel according to the Torah of Israel, and no one has the right to hand it over to foreigners.
