WE WON’T GET FOOLED AGAIN

BS”D

We’ll be fighting in the streets
With our children at our feet
And the morals that they worship will be gone
And the men who spurred us on
Sit in judgement of all wrong
They decide and the shotgun sings the song

I’ll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again

The change, it had to come
We knew it all along
We were liberated from the foe, that’ all
And the world looks just the same
And history ain’t changed
‘Cause the banners, they all flown in the last war

I’ll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again
No, no!

I’ll move myself and my family aside
If we happen to be left half alive
I’ll get all my papers and smile at the sky
For I know that the hypnotized never lie

Do ya?

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

There’s nothing in the street
Looks any different to me
And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye
And the parting on the left
Is now the parting on the right
And the beards have all grown longer overnight

I’ll tip my hat to the new constitution
Take a bow for the new revolution
Smile and grin at the change all around me
Pick up my guitar and play
Just like yesterday
Then I’ll get on my knees and pray
We don’t get fooled again
Don’t get fooled again
No, no!

Yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah!

Meet the new boss
Same as the old boss

Beating the System – The Implications

bs”d

Since 2006, the Shin Bet’s uniquely effective defense system has successfully thwarted almost every Palestinian terrorist attacks inside Israel. But with the deadly massacre at Jerusalem’s Yeshivat Harav last night, Israel’s eight-year terror ordeal at Palestinian hands has now taken a new direction.

Under the  tutelage of Iran, Syria and Hizballah, Palestininan terror planners have now learned how to bypass the universally acclaimed Shin Bet counter-terror system by changing their tactical agenda. Gone are the cumbersome operational teams of several people, including accomplices who drove the suicide killers to their targets, a procedure that easily allowed for leaks about coming attacks.

Last night’s attack was carried out single-handed by a lone gunman, a local man and Israeli citizen who could move around Jerusalem unnoticed. In his regular job as a delivery-man, he was a prime candidate. He was able to conduct his own surveillance at his leisure and choose his method of attack as well as its timing. The Kalashnikov assault rifle he used is easily obtainable throughout Israel.
The yeshiva attack revealed that senior terror planners have now determined that they can leave operational details to a lone suicide killer after selecting him, identifying his target and setting the date. In this way, they reduce the chances of leaks to almost zero.

Jerusalem district police commander Aharon Franko stated after the attack that no advance warning had been received. The institution was completely unaware of the impending tragedy.

This change in Palestinian terrorism’s methods of operation makes the next stage in the terror war confronting Israel particularly dangerous. More atrocities modeled on the “successful” yeshiva attack may well occur (G-d forbid) before Israel’s security services can adjust to the new reality.
The events of this week, the yeshiva murders, the roadside bomb which killed an Israeli soldier patrolling the Gaza border, the bottle bombs and rock-throwing on the West Bank, the riots in Jerusalem, all indicate that the Palestinians have launched a fresh wave of terror primarily targeting Israeli civilians. There is no doubt in the minds of Defense and Military officials that this new surge in terrorism is specifically designed to coincide with the spring festivals of Purim (March 20th and Passover (April 20-27), and with the 60th anniversary celebrations of Israel’s statehood a few weeks later.

As the Yeshiva Rabbi said this morning, “Our whole country is in need of Hashem’s mercy.”
