Return to Homesh

In honour of Independence Day, an estimated 30 000 people marched to the destroyed Jewish city of Homesh, whose inhabitants were expelled in 2005 during the "Disengagement". At the head of the main organized group of marchers, which set off at 11:00 am from a nearby town, was Nobel Prize Laureate Professor Yisrael Aumann. The world-renowned professor of game theory stated in recent days that he sees a return to Homesh as "signaling the imperative change of direction the state needs. The march to Homesh expresses very well the aspiration to be a free people in our land." Prof. Aumann addressed the gathered activists, as did the Chief Rabbi of Kiryat Arba, Rabbi Dov Lior.

The expelled inhabitants of Homesh should return, as well as all the Gaza inhabitants, such as those of the towns of Gush Katif and Neve Dekalim. The Israeli government should make settling the Land of Israel its number one priority. As soon as the Arabs know that the Jews are here to stay, they will abandon hope and simply give up.

"Sons Shall Return to their Borders"?

Monday night, 3500 people returned to the Samarian town of Homesh which was destroyed two years ago as part of Sharon's "Disengagement" plan. The participants in the return to Homesh vowed to stay there as long as necessary to rebuild the community once more.
I hope that the participants rebuild Homesh very soon, as well as Gush Katif, Neve Dekalim, Amona and all of the other towns destroyed in the state-sponsored pogrom. That should send a message to the Islamo-fascist haters that we Jews are here to stay. We were expelled from this land twice before, by the Babylonians and the Romans but we returned. As soon as the Arabs will understand that the Jews are not going anywhere and are not returning to the exile, the sooner the terrorist attacks will end. May the rebuilding of Homesh signal the beginning of the rebuilding of Jerusalem and the beginning of Jewish sovereignty over Israel.
