ISRAEL UUTISET 2012 - Ykkösosa Vuoden 2012 Alkuosa: 01.01.2012 - 31.05.2012 Päivitetty 24.02.2014 c ISRAEL UUTISET 2012 - ykkösosa Vuoden 2012 alkuosa: 01.01.2012 - 31.05.2012 Yllä ote historioitsija Josephuksen päiväkirjasta Rooman - Tiituksen joukkojen Jerusalemiin tekemän täystuhon vuonna v.70 Alkusanat; Kuka on oikea Israelilainen; Israelilaisen määritystä voi peilata mm. historioitsija Josephuksen Jerusalemin -kuvauksesta. Päiväkirjassaan "War of the Jews" juutalaissyntyinen Flavius Josephus kuvailee juutalaisia ja Jerusalemin juonimisia juuri ennen sen valloitusta ja täystuhoa tällä tavoin: Kolmeen ensimmäiseen valtaryhmään sopii kuka tahansa julkkis - vaikka puolijuutalainen Adolph yms Rooman kaasupyhimykset. Neljännen, ilman maallista valtaa olevan ryhmän vaatimus onkin täysin toisesta maailmasta: oikean Israelilaisen, Jeesus Nasaretilaisen ryhmään eivät pyrkyrit mahdukaan. Juutalaisen ja 'juutalaisen' erottaminen toisistaan, oikean Israelilaisen löytäminen vetää maton alta niin Rooman innoittamilta, joukon suojassa piilottelevilta antisemitisteiltä, kuin myös 1-2-3-ääri- siionisteilta. Josephuksen valta-jaottelu (=roomalaisiin liittyneen juutalaisen hyväveliväännös) toimii erityisesti avaimena nyky-Israelin 1-2-3-4 -porukkain toimien ymmärtämiselle ... EU-Rooman piiloistansa pyöritellessä näitä toisiansa vastaan. Sen kautta avautuvat myös näkymät Rooman paawien vedättämälle -USA-Nazi- juutalais tuholeireille... Jos jaksat lukea koko sivun ja tämän viittaukset 2011-sivulle, sinulle selviää myös miksi hakaristejä sisältävät Israelin synagoogat ja temppeli olivat Roomalais-1-2-3 porukkain murhaaman Jeesuksen nuhtelun kohteena: "Voi sinua Beetsaida..." Avain nuhteluunsa ei löydy noista neljästä Israelin ryhmässä, eikä Josephuksen 'sopivasti' unohtamassa omassa viidennessä kolonnassa, Roomanvallan kieroissa lieroissa - vaan joka ryhmään sisältyvien yksilöiden sydämeen suljetuista salaseuraopeista. Kuka siis on oikea Israelilainen? Kuka oikeasti etsii Israelin kansan parasta? Pääsiäisenä, huhtikuun 15. pnä vuonna 70, Titus, Keisari Flaviuksen poika aloitti Jerusalemin piirityksen. Hänellä komennuksessaan oli Rooman armeijakunnat XII Fulminata (lisäjoukot Syyriasta) , XV Apollinaris, V Macedonica , X Fretensis Syyriasta. Lisänä Commagene & Emesa; juutalaisvihan täyttämän Arabisheikin joukot, Galba ja Otho armeijakuntien veteraanirippeet. Jumalansa hyljänneellä piiritetyllä kaupungilla ei ollut mahdollisuuksia... Katkerien taistelujen ja siviiliväestön tyypillisten Roo-mass-a-murhain jälkeen, syyskuun 8pnä Titus hallitsi koko Jerusalemin raunioläjää. "Tituksen isän, Rooman keisari Flavianuksen strategia jossa junaili juutalaiset tappamaan toinen toisiansa, oli menestys..." (jatkuen tänäkin päivänä.) livius .org/ja-jn/jewish_wars/jwar04.html Muun muassa Jeesuksen Sanat: "Tähän ei ole jäävä kiveä kiven päälle maahan hajotettavaksi" täyttyi muiden ennustusten lailla 100%: Tuhopoltetun temppelin kultasula valui kivien väliin - josta Roomalaisryöstäjät sen repivät esiin. Rooman vatikaanin Adolp-kultahammasholvit todistavat myös ikuisesta rakkaudestaan juutalaisten kultaan... Jo parin vuosituhannen on r00ma pyörittänyt ja ryöstänyt kansoja tehtailemalla eri kansanosia kapinaan kypsyttäviä direktiivejään. Niin juutalaiset kuin ketkä tahansa kansat on helposti ujutettavissa riitaan kaikkialle valtojen hallintoelimiin, mediaan solutettujen rooman hyväntekijä-ritarien salaseurain kautta. Aikoinaan haluttu osa Juutalaisista nostettiin tietoisesti kapinaan asettamallaa r00man direktiivien joukkoon erityisesti juutalais-uskoa tarkasti seuraavan osn kiusaksi ympärileikkauskielto-direktiivi vuonna 130. Näin roomalle löytyi 'uusi' hyvä syy uskontoaan=keisari vastaan kapinoivan kansanosan massamurhaan - 'liberaaliveljien' auttaessa tuhossa. Sattuneesta syystä kyseinen direktiivi meille suomilaisille 'ei toimi' ... r00maritarimme ovatkin nyt keksineet meille suomilaisille mediansa otsikoihin vihapuhe-legendan (120.000 järjenvastaisen EUdirektiivin päälle). Luepa myös ameriikan jesuutiisia: Ympärileikkaus kieltokiihotus onkin lähdössä USAssa taas nousukiitoon. Paawin=r00man keisarin marianpalvonta-uskonnon ydinlause: Ord0 ab Cha0 - Hajota ja Hallitse.

Cur- rent scholarship on “post-heroism” has viewed the technological and professional standards of contemporary military conflicts as distancing the individual combatant from the modern battlefield. Little attention has been given however to the ways in which soldiers themselves experience and adapt to post-heroic conditions. Findings based on in-depth semistructured interviews with 17 IDF tunnel combatants show these soldiers actively reinterpreting the strategic importance placed on distancing the warrior from the battlefield. This exploratory article suggests that an individual “warrior ethos” still resonates amid the professional and technological contours of post-heroic (underground) conflicts. By presenting a novel account of contemporary tunnel warfare from the perspective of the combatants themselves, this research sheds new light on the different personal dimensions that impact post-heroic military operations. 1 Department of Sociology and Anthropology, Ariel University, Israel 2 Clinical Branch, Department of Mental Health, Medical Corps, Israel Defense Force, Israel 3 Mental Fitness Branch, Department of Mental Health, Medical Corps, Israel Defense Forces, Israel Corresponding Author: Nehemia Stern, Department of Sociology and Anthropology, Ariel University, Ariel 40700, Israel.

    The Anna Sobol Levy Fellowship 20042004---0505 The Hebrew University of Jerusalem Luke Conway ● Maya Kroitoru ● Travis Lee ● Alex Pascal ● Brett Schor Biographies In his capacity as a Lieutenant Colonel, former Armored Battalion Commander and current Spokesperson in the Israel Defense Forces (res.), Tal Hazan is serving for the second time as the coordinator for the ASL Fellowship. In addition to the monthly ASL trips to military sites that he organizes and the security-related discussions he facilitates, Tal works as a senior supervisor for the Israel Land Administration (ILA). However, after having had such a wonderful experience with the Rothberg International School, its management, and overseas students, Tal has recently decided to leave his position at the ILA in order to manage Rothberg’s Office of Student Activities (OSA). In his few spare moments, Tal is also pursuing an MA in non-profit organizational management at the Hebrew University. Tal is married and has two children. He views his involvement with the ASL fellowship as a mutually rewarding experience. In addition to sharing his extensive knowledge about the military establishment and Israeli politics, Tal has thoroughly enjoyed learning from the ASL fellows about American politics and the US military. Luke Conway received his BA in Political Science from the University of Wisconsin, Madison in 2004. Upon graduation, he was commissioned as 2nd Lieutenant in the U.S. Army and after completing the Fellowship, he will attend the Armor Officer Basic Course at Ft. Knox.
