Stop President Obama

Stop President Obama From Putting Israel on the Chopping Block!

Dear Friend of Jerusalem,
One would expect the President of the United States to stand firm against America's enemies and support its allies.
President Obama Getting Ready to Ambush IsraelToday however, President Obama used the forum of the United Nations to abandon Israel and embrace the unfounded demands of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO).
President Obama became the first US President to refer to the territories that Israel won in the (defensive) Six Day War as, "Occupied Territory." This implies that Israel must retreat from its own land, return to indefensible '67 borders, divide Jerusalem, and capitulate to Palestinian forces bent on destroying Israel.
A few weeks ago, One Jerusalem sent out a Red Alert warning that Obama was going to ambush Israel at the United Nations. He did it, today.
Israel faces a real challenge with Obama. On the one hand, President Obama continually pressures Israel to give up its secure borders. On the other hand, Obama allows for existential threats to Israel, by refusing to engage the US in actively stopping Iran's nuclear weapons program.
One Jerusalem has been -- and will continue to be -- on the front lines, in defense of Jerusalem and the Jewish State of Israel. When Israel's Prime Minister Netanyahu arrived in New York this week, we were invited to meet and strategize with him.
Now we need you to step up your efforts for the difficult months ahead. We count on you to make phone calls, sign petitions, and demonstrate in the streets.
We need each other now more than ever. Sign up!
Sincerely,
Allen Roth & David Goder

DeNuke Iran




A nuclear-armed Iran poses a dire threat to the United States.


The Islamic Republic of Iran is close to having nuclear warheads.
It has missiles to deliver those warheads to America.

A nuclear-armed Iran poses a dire threat to Israel.
And will set off a nuclear arms race in the Middle East.

Our government must stop Iran from getting atomic weapons.

By any means necessary. Before it's too late.

"As individuals, each of us is powerless. However, together - thousands and thousands of us - we have a chance. There are two ways you can take a stand for the denuking of Iran"...

Sign the Denuke Iran Declaration and join the Community, a nuclear-armed Iran is unacceptable.

The Wings of Torah

Higher and Higher
(From the Higher and Higher CD by Yehuda!)

When I was just a small boy I heard the legend of the dove
Like all the other animals Hashem created it with love
But the dove was extra special for it was so pure and white
Hashem sent it to the forest to turn the darkness into light



But all the animals were jealous and their hatred grew so strong
They plotted ways to rid themselves of the dove and his sweet songs
First the tiger, then the jackel, then the bear, and then the snake
When they'd attack the Dove would run and the Dove barely escaped



So the dove turned to Hashem tears streaming down his cheeks
"I feel that I am all alone with no one close to me"
But then from under Hashem's Throne where He stores His precious things
He gave the dove a special gift, He gave the dove his wings



And He said, "Higher and higher, higher than the sky
Higher and higher, lift as high as you can fly
You'll fly up to the heavens even higher than you've dreamed
Higher and higher you'll fly so close to Me



The Dove went to the forest with confidence and pride
He'd never have to run again and he'd never have to hide
He would always be protected and now that he had wings
He would sit upon a treetop and the world would hear him sing



But all the animals were furious when they saw the dove's new wings
It was as if Hashem was telling them that the dove would be their king
So they pounced upon the dove and he could barely fly
They left him torn and wounded, they left him there to die



So the dove turned to Hashem and he cried,
"It isn't fair, these precious wings You gave to me that I always have to wear
They are so very heavy, much more than I can bear!
Please take me from the forest I cannot make it there"



And then Hashem turned to the dove, "My child, please understand,
Now I have given you your wings your destiny is in your hands
If you use your wings for flying they'll never weigh you down
And you'll fly up so much higher than those who live upon the ground
And you'll go higher and higher, higher than the sky
Higher and higher that's as high as you can fly
You'll fly up to the heavens even higher than you've dreamed
Higher and higher you'll fly so close to Me"



The dove returned back to the forest
And now the others lay in wait
They'd attack the dove in unison and this time death would be his fate
But the dove was so determined and he begin to fly
And like Hashem promised him he soared up towards the sky



And he went higher and higher, higher than the sky
Higher and higher lift as high as you can fly
You'll fly up to the heavens even higher than you've dreamed
Higher and higher you'll fly so close to Me



Our story has concluded but friends there's one more thing,
The little dove, that's you and me,
And the Torah that's our wings



You'll fly up to the heavens, even higher than you dream
Higher and higher you'll fly, you'll fly so close to Me

Jewish Response to Obama's Cairo Speech


On June 4, 2009, President Barack H. Obama delivered a speech in Cairo, Egypt, that contained a distorted view of the Jewish people's historical ties to the land of their forefathers, the land of Israel.

Rabbi Chaim Richman of The Temple Institute responds to Obama's Cairo speech:
