[net.religion.jewish] Apathy is Rampant here!!

What is going on here. There are so many burning issues and no one
is talking about them.
      -Today is Yom Yerushalaim - a holiday celebrating the saving
	of millions of Jewish lives in 1967 with the lightning like
	six day war. A war, which the surrounding arab nation promised
	to push us into the sea. A war, during which radio broadcasts
	from our arab neighbors told our women to dress thier prettiest
	to welcome them when they come. Seventeen years later, where
	is the Pirsum Hanes(Advertising of the miracle)??
	Have we forgotten so quickly what even American Jewry was
	like before 1967?

      -Twenty Seven Jews are under arrest in Israel for belonging
	to a Jewish terrorist organization. These are Jews with
	families like you and I. They are different in that they
	are reported to have preformed criminal acts. But thier
	families must now suffer. Some may get life terms. How did
	we Jews, yes we - these Twenty Seven are not the typical
	criminal personalities, - become like this. Do we have a choice?

      -Israel now reports that two terrorist who hijacked the bus 
	south of Tel Aviv were killed after they were captured.
	How did this happen. Do we have a choice?

      -Israel inflation at 400% in April; 400 Stinger missiles to
	Saudi Arabia; Will Labor win the election and if so will
	Israel be split into pieces again for a Peace Treaty?

Whats going on - why the Silence?

Don't be apathetic - Write Write Write!
Don't be afraid to face these questions - but do remember 
	-You only have to keep G-D happy with you
	-We are a Nation which sets the standards for the world today
		as we always have in the past.

This is, after all, net.religion.jewish, not net.politics.israel.
Or, is all that stuff about jewish <> Israel (not to mention
jewish <> zionist) just a lot of b.s. for public consumption.

Apathy here?  You gotta be kidding.
