They make the mistake of believing that there is a civil war going on among us here

Rabbi Shmuel Elyahoo

And it is very clear. The Arabs had heard the talk here about the launching of civil disobedience and civil war, and they began to imagine that the state would collapse with a number of other terrorist operations. And they dreamed of the end of this state. where Nasrallah has previously said that the state of Israel is Ohn of the spider's web.

This is what explains the joyful marches with fireworks in Jenin and all the Arab cities. They Batua are already planning to take the big booty. They imagine that in the world as things are, whenever a dispute breaks out, the weapons are taken from the treasury to start a round of endless bloody revenge that eats the green and the dry.

But they are making a huge mistake. We experienced this situation a thousand years ago and since then we have sworn not to repeat it. No to the absurd hatred. No to the civil war. No to raise a hand on each other. The following message should be addressed to them: note that with all the sharp debates that the State of Israel has witnessed over the course of more than a hundred years since the construction of this country, we have not entered into a civil war.

And although there were a few moments when it seemed like we were about to slip into it, we were actually far from it. The incident of Rabin's murder is a painful example of a person who took a weapon in his hand and killed a prime minister, because the people of all spectrums have denounced him. We have learned the bitter lesson.

فعلى مدار الفيٍْ عم, our ancestors taught us when commemorating the destruction of the Temple in تISHْعاه بعاف of each year the high price associated with the civil war. As over a thousand years, you also showed us in all the Arab countries that we should not repeat the civil war. And the Christians in Europe helped you with the Crusades, the Inquisitions, dozens of bloodsheds and deportation campaigns. Then the riots, the decrees and the holocaust against us. We have sworn not to fall again into the trap of vain hatred.

Don't let reality fool you, we argue loudly. And demonstrate with the black flags. and hang the signs. Rather, we will try to convince each other with all the energy we have given. And sometimes we even resort to the language of threats and promises, but make no mistake. In the end, towards is one people. And one army, one government, and one country we will never abandon.

As the fighters who entered to arrest the killers in Jenin belonged to the right and the left, religious and secular. The soldiers who will pursue you and put you in prison for decades will belong to all spectrums of the people. And whenever you shoot at the heads of women in the streets of Jerusalem, we will all chase you until we arrest you. You know very well that we can do it well.

Do not test us because you will pay a very high price this time. Knowing that this time there are people in the government who are not afraid of the empty threats issued by the European continent, which is busy with its own problems. And they are not afraid of the tired American president. This time, you will pay the heaviest price ever. Don't test us. And excuse me from warning.

They mistakenly think there's a civil war here.

This is very clear. The Arabs have heard that there is talk here of civil rebellion and civil war, it seems to them that a few more attacks and the country will collapse. They can already see the end of the country with their own eyes. Nasrallah has already said that the State of Israel is as strong as a spider's web.

This is the explanation for the joyous parades with fireworks in Jenin and all the Arab cities. They are already planning the great looting. They think that with us it is like with them, there is an argument, they take the weapons out of the closet and begin a round of endless blood feuds until destruction.

Well, they are wrong. We were in this place two thousand years ago and since then we have sworn no more. No to gratuitous hatred. No to civil war. No to raising one's hand against another. We need to tell them: Pay attention that with all the difficult arguments that have existed in the State of Israel for more than a hundred years of settlement, we have not entered into civil war.

There were a few moments when it seemed like we were close to getting there, but in reality we were light years away. The assassination of Rabin is the painful example of someone who took up arms and assassinated a prime minister, and the entire nation from end to end condemned him. We learned the bitter lesson.

For two thousand years, our ancestors taught us every Tisha B'Av what the bitter price is for civil war. For two thousand years, you too have shown us in all Arab countries that civil war is not worth repeating. The Christians in Europe helped you with the Crusades, the Inquisition, dozens of blood libels and expulsions. Riots, decrees and the Holocaust.

We swore we would never return to gratuitous hatred.

Don't be confused, we argue loudly. We demonstrate with black flags. We hang signs. We try to convince each other with voices and thunder. Sometimes we even threaten, but make no mistake. In the end, we are one people. One army, one government, one country, and we are not giving it up.

The fighters who went in to catch the murderers in Jenin belonged to the right and the left, religious and secular. The soldiers who will chase you and put you in prison for decades will belong to all parts of the people. When you shoot women in the head on the streets of Jerusalem, there is not a single son who will not chase you until he is caught. And you know very well that we know how to do it well.

Don't try us because this time you will pay a very high price. This time the government is filled with people who are not afraid of the idle threats of Europe, which is busy with its own problems. They are not afraid of America's tired president. This time you will pay a very high price, you bastards. Don't try us.

See, you have been warned.
