On Sunday, the 21st of September, the friends of Shimon Peres have decided to honor him on the occasion of his 80th birthday, at the Mann Auditorium in Tel Aviv.  Former U.S. President Clinton will be there. Ordinarily, we would not inject ourselves into such an occasion.  However, so much pain and suffering has been caused by Mr. Peres to Jewish families throughout Israel, that we feel compelled to act.

The Oslo process has caused the deaths of some 1,500 Jews and the maimings of thousands of others.  Peres has brought grief and sorrow to those families who have lost love ones or suffered serious injuries.  Sadly, he shuns visiting the bereaved, and has become immune to their pain.

What is even more disturbing is the fact that he is unrepentant.  Mr. Peres is incapable of admitting error.  Furthermore, he refuses to descend from the podium.  He continues to inject his poor judgment on many issues of the day.  These opinions are faithfully reported in detail by the leftist oriented media, both here and abroad.
 
Peres' blindness and timidity towards Arab terrorism is well known.  He has brought upon the Jewish People the catastrophe of Oslo, of which he is the architect.  It is for this reason that Women For Israel's Tomorrow (Women in Green) feel justified to use the occasion of his 80th birthday as a means to broadly publicize the poor judgment Mr. Peres has shown in the past.

Unfortunately, there are those who still cling to Mr. Peres to provide them with answers to today's complicated problems with the Arabs.  The choice by them of Mr. Peres is a poor one.    He consistently has been proven wrong in the past.  Because of his vanity, he is unable to admit his grotesque past failures.  There are those who point to Peres' major contribution to providing Israel with the deterrent atom bomb capability.  Notwithstanding, Mr. Peres is a grave liability to Israel and threatens Jewish survival.

Mr. Peres has a long record of identification with international socialism.  He rarely identifies himself as a Jew or expresses his identification with a Jewish State.  He has consistently shown extremely poor judgment with regard to the terrorist Arafat.  Arafat is the father of international terrorism, yet Peres completely ignores that important fact.  Moreover, he is prepared to make peace with the Arabs at any cost, despite their inhumane and barbaric tactics, and their different moral standards.

We intend to take out ads in the Hebrew Press, to reach as wide an audience as possible, to warn them of the dangers that Mr. Peres represents.  To ensure a large turnout for the demonstration, we need to provide busses from all parts of the country to come to the demonstration.  We also need to have a professional sound system.  We appeal to those of you who can help financially to cover the cost of such ads, and other necessary expenses, to send in your contribution, as soon as possible, to the Central Fund For Israel, c/o Women in Green, POB 7352, Jerusalem 91072, Israel.

The octogenarian, Mr. Peres, has no words of wisdom for us.  He has consistently been proven wrong in all his suggestions with regard to our relations with the Arabs.  His advices represent a danger and menace to us all.  They should be totally disregarded.  That is our realistic view on Mr. Peres on the occasion of his 80th birthday.  It is vital that you join our demonstration on the 21st of September, or at the very least, show your support for it.

Russian version
An introduction to MAOF
Haim Goldman

Dear Friends,

Would you believe that the undersigned has anything in common with

-- Professor Victor Davis Hanson (Senior Fellow at the Hoover Institution, Stanford University),
-- Dr Charles Krauthammer, (Washington Post, Time, The Weekly Standard),
-- Caroline Glick (Deputy Managing Editor of the Jerusalem Post),
-- Jonathan Tobin (Executive Editor of the Philadelphia Jewish Exponent).

Amazingly, the editors of the MAOF website decided that the missives of the undersigned are worthy of translation and posting along the articles written by these distinguished authors.

The first letter was published without the consent of the undersigned.
However, after thorough examination of the laudable attitude of MAOF and of the excellent contents of the website, the undersigned had most graciously granted his permission for publication of his missives in both English and Russian.

“Analytical Group MAOF” [1] is an organisation founded about ten years ago by Russian-speaking Jewish intellectuals. The attitude of MAOF is definitely pro-Zionist -- unambiguously and unapologetically.

One of MAOF’s primary purposes is providing information and analysis about Middle-Eastern and world affairs as well as about Israel’s history, values and dilemmas. In addition to extensive publication activity in various media, MAOF also organises excursions and seminars. While the vast majority of the contents of the MAOF website is in Russian, texts originally written in English are provided in the original [2] as well as in Russian.

There are arguably about 250 millions of Russian-speakers worldwide and many of them do not read English. The indisputable motivation for the author’s permission was to grant those millions of disadvantaged people the grand benefit of reading the author’s ruminations. If the author is ever maliciously accused that his tacit motivation for authorising the publication was his craving to be listed along with the above-mentioned distinguished writers, his plea will definitely be “nolo contendere”.

The editors of MAOF expressed their gratitude by granting the undersigned a privilege that no other author got – the opportunity to review and correct the Russian translation before publication. The original letters of the undersigned are at [3] and their Russian version is at [4]. At of today, only two letters are posted but several other letters are pending translation.

You are kindly ENCOURAGED TO RECOMMEND the MAOF website to your friends and colleagues worldwide, particularly those who speak Russian. Those who do not enjoy the benefit of proficiency in the exquisite Russian language can find many thought-provoking and inspiring articles about Middle-Eastern and world affairs in the English section [2].

Sincerely,

Haim Goldman
28.10.2006
