ZIONIST ORGANIZATION OF AMERICA OP-ED   ZOA’s Klein JPost Op-Ed: There is Nothing Extreme About Israel's New Government   By ZOA National President Morton A. Klein (JANUARY 1, 2023 / JPOST) The Zionist Organization of America congratulates Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, his Likud party and his coalition partners on the formation of the new government. In these times, when Israeli citizens are being subjected to terror attacks perpetrated by Palestinian Arab terrorists every day, it is vital that Israel has a strong government such as the incoming coalition, which is dedicated to protecting Israel’s rights and safety. There is nothing “extreme” about proposing to give the necessary tools to Israel’s brave young soldiers to enable them to protect their fellow Israeli citizens from rampant Palestinian Arab terror. The constant attacks on innocent Jews need to be stopped. There is similarly nothing “extreme” about proposing to deport convicted Palestinian Arab terrorists. The real extremists are the leaders of the Palestinian Authority – who incite and pay Arabs to murder innocent Jews. Yet those, such as Rick Jacobs of the Union for Reform Judaism (URJ) and The New York Times, who falsely scream about an “extremist” Israeli government say nothing about Mahmoud Abbas’ heinous incitement and “pay to slay” payments. There is nothing extreme about proposing to give Jews and other non-Muslims equal rights to pray on the Jewish people’s holiest site, the Temple Mount. In fact, it is religious discrimination to allow only Muslims to freely pray there. King Solomon built the Temple as a place where all people can pray.  There is nothing extreme about the proposal to permit Jews to build homes in the lawful and historical Jewish lands of Judea and Samaria. These are areas guaranteed to the Jewish people under international law. Nor is it extreme to enforce the law against the massive illegal Arab building on state lands in Area C and the Negev.   Read More   Share This Email   REAL AMERICA - Dan Ball Interviews Mort Klein re: Whoopi's Second Round Of Antisemitic Comments, 12/29/22 Watch   Founded in 1897, ZOA played a key role in the Jewish State's re-establishment.
