The Palestinian Authority's National Security Council and the
Cabinet on Monday instructed the PA security forces in the
Gaza Strip to prevent attacks on Israel, saying it would not
tolerate actions that harm the national interests of the
Palestinians.
Yerushalayim should raise an outcry against the people who
breached the walls of kashrus in the Holy City, the court of
the King, the city of royalty.
An extra-academic document that debunks one of the
foundations of the disengagement plan, "the demographic
bomb," was presented in Washington. The document argues that

Gaza Strip today, and not the 3.8 million claimed by the
Palestinian Authority.

Four hundred and fifty-two soldiers were converted by the IDF
Chief Rabbinate in 2004 and 2,092 soldiers completed the

The Knesset House Committee unanimously approved the split of
United Torah Jewry into two separate parties and notified the
plenum of the decision. UTJ has now been replaced by the two-
man party Degel HaTorah and the three-man party Agudas

reflecting problems in operations in the Knesset, and not an
ideological one.

allot buildings and lots, primarily for the needs of the
chareidi public.
Even the Americans have learned something from their
experience in Iraq. "This is a negative insurgency," Brig.
Gen. Erwin Lessel, deputy director of operations for the
multinational forces, told a reporter for the New York
Times. "Unlike a classical insurgency, these groups don't
offer anything."
"They want to dictate to us what to teach and how to
educate. We must fight this with all our might!"
With regard to Avrohom Ovinu it is written, "Because I know
him, for he commands his sons and his household to follow him
and to guard the way of Hashem." The Torah tells us that the
main reason that Hashem loves Avrohom Ovinu (which is denoted
by the words `because I know him') is because he commands his
household to follow his example of keeping the word of
Hashem.
