The only ‘Roadmap to Peace’ that matters is The Great Liberation found in the Book of Joshua, some of which inheritance was returned to us in 1967.
ed note–Before we get to the teeth and claws of the piece itself, let’s start off with a lil’ perspectivizing…
Imagine that the Chinese have a book, we’ll call it the ‘Chorah’, a book which serves as the beating heart of their religion and moral code, and in it, their deity, we’ll call him ‘Chaweh’, speaks to some Chinaman thousands of years ago, we’ll call him ‘Chavraham’, and tells him that he has been ‘chosen’, is favored by this deity named ‘Chaweh,’ and that he and his future ‘seed’ have been given this ‘inheritance’–a piece of land found between the Pacific and Atlantic oceans–and that the Chinese, the ‘chosen’ people of ‘Chaweh’, are given license to engage in whatever brutality is necessary in order to ‘redeem’ this inheritance from those who are presently holding on to it.
And let’s say that the Chinese, following this book known as the ‘Chorah’ and the moral commandments that this book codifies in what is considered one of the ‘great religions’ of the world known as ‘Chudah-ism’, mount an invasion of the entire Western hemisphere, from the North Pole to the South Pole, murdering, raping and ‘dispossessing/despoiling’ the people already living there, and the people living there, in the interests of their own self-survival fight back, and the Chinese, utilizing with great effect the powers of persuasion they possess via a world-wide media which they own whole hog/lock, stock, and barrel, paint these people as ‘terrorists’…
And, voila’, we now understand the whole-hog-entirety of the ‘Jewish problem’, or at least as it pertains to the Middle East.
But as bad as all of this is, it is actually much, much worse than what we just allegorically described…
In the comparison we just made, we didn’t bring into the equation the fact that today’s followers of Judah-ism believe with every fiber in their beings that the world as we know it right now with all 7 billion people living on it, MUST be plunged into a cauldron of war, death and suffering as part of the ‘cleansing’ process of preparing everything for ‘Moschiac’, the warlord who the followers of Judah-ism believe is to arrive and who will usher in the ‘children of Israel’ as rulers of the world and owners of EVERYTHING.
And, as whacky and as dangerous as this belief system is, what makes it all the moreso is the fact that the followers of Judah-ism are not some fringe cult with only a few members living in some compound in the mountains of Peru’ and with scant financial resources at their disposal to bring all of this about. They own the world’s money, they control the political systems of the world’s most powerful countries, and in their cult-compound in the Middle East which they call ‘Israel’, they possess several hundred atomic weapons, a good number of which they smuggled into the capitals of all the world’s countries decades ago, along with a smorgasboard of race-specific bio-weapons which they developed in their secret bio-weapons lab in Nes Ziyyona known as the ‘IIBR’, the ‘Israeli Institute for Biological Research’.
And what makes all of this EVEN MORE DANGEROUS is the fact that not only do the 7 billion Gentiles living on God’s green earth NOT KNOW about what is the planned Gentile-cide that is being prepared for them by the followers of Judah-ism–the ‘children of Israel’ as they love to fawningly refer to themselves–they don’t even care to find out about it.

Recently I was re-reading an early article from May 26, 2003 titled, ‘The Divine Zionist Roadmap.’ It was written by Rabbi Eleazar Waldman and dealt with the liberation of Judea and Samaria, Israel’s ancestral and Biblical heartland, in that miraculous June 1967 Jewish victory over Arab genocidal aggression. It also dealt with the deliverance of the ancient Jewish towns and villages that had for too long been illegally occupied by the Jordanian regime.
The Jordanian Arab Legion, officered by British mercenaries, had illegally appropriated the Biblical Jewish heartland of Israel in 1948, known as Judea and Samaria, and had renamed it the ‘West Bank’, an equally illegitimate name the world has gleefully and shamefully embraced.
Rabbi Waldman, in writing some 19 years ago of the Israeli victory over the Arabs, stated ‘We were then blessed by divine miracles that not only helped us overcome our enemies but united us again with the heartland of Israel. Thousands of people filled with the enthusiasm of Jewish faith, returned to our ancient towns in the hills of Judea and Samaria, so that the song of redemption could be heard again in these hills after 2,000 years of desolation.
‘Thus, we established the significant reality of 250,000 Jews living a normal Jewish life of faith and joy today in ‘Yesha,’ the acronym for the ancestral and Biblical heartland. More than all the distorted plans and roadmaps drawn up by foreigners, we are sure that this reality will determine the future life of Israel and its redemption process.’
Now, of course, in the year 2022, the Jewish population in Yesha, the Hebrew acronym for Judea and Samaria, is blessedly far greater.
I remembered the passage in Genesis 12:1 when our One and Only God and Savior, besides whom there is none other, called upon Abraham, the Holy Convert, and told him … ‘Get out of your country and go unto a Land that I will show you.’
Then followed Chapter 13:15 … ‘For all the land, which you see, I will give you and to your children forever.’
Rabbi Waldman had been describing the liberation of the ancestral and Biblical homeland that took place in June, 1967. A hostile world, of course, does not call it a liberation, but an ‘occupation.’
It occurred to me that the first liberation of the Land by Joshua bin Nun over 3,000 years ago must never, never be forgotten, especially by Israel’s present leaders, many of whom have shown a tragic disregard of Jewish history in their willingness to abandon the Land to the Arabs in return for a delusional peace. So it is instructive to look back to the only ‘Roadmap’ that matters; what I call, The Great Liberation.
Around 1200 BCE, the pagan city-states of Canaan west of the River Jordan lay before the tribes of Israel who were entering from the east.
The people known as the Philistines were to become a formidable enemy of the Jewish clans, and warfare continued between the two peoples for some 200 years before the Philistines’ complete and final defeat during the reign of King David.
Under the remarkable general, Yehoshua (Joshua), the Israelites liberated the territory between the River Jordan and the Mediterranean Sea, which was to become known as the Land of Israel. They also liberated large tracts of land east of the River Jordan, such as in Gilead. Chapter 12 of the Book of Joshua details the division of the Land between the various tribes.
This tribal allocation, enshrined in the Torah, the first five books of the Bible, represents the subsequent basis for the economic, political, spiritual, and religious organization of Israel.
As Professor Elazar also pointed out in his study of the texts in the Book of Joshua, ‘they are permanent and inalienable, even unto the end of days.’
It is this geographical imperative within the Biblical account, which must instruct all Israeli leaders to beware when being pressured by the world to give away Jewish tribal lands and an independent state on them to hostile Arabs in fruitless efforts of worthless appeasement.
This is God’s covenanted possession given to the Jewish people in trust and must never be given away to His enemies – no matter what.
What then is the territory – as the map shows – given by God to the 12 tribes and through them to the Jewish People as everlasting covenanted lands?
Chapter 11 of the Book of Joshua completes the epic story of the conquest and liberation of the Land, usually employing the Hebrew word, nahalah, meaning ‘inheritance’.
Chapter 12 begins by detailing the initial division by lot in the Torah, the first Five Books of the Bible. In Chapter 13, we come to the specific geographical distribution of territory, which today over 3,000 years later includes areas needlessly and grievously given away to the Arabs by respective Israeli leaders.
These leaders, from Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin down to the present time, have been possessed of an overwhelming desire for an Arab-Israel peace. But their desperation to go down in history as the great peace bringer (with the added bonus, perhaps, of receiving what has now become the grotesquely misnamed Nobel Peace Prize) also has become their grand and tragic delusion with calamitous implications for Israel’s survival.
Instead of peace with an enemy, they have created Frankenstein monsters. The purveyor of Jew hatred, barbaric Hamas, now occupies Gaza and the equally murderous and duplicitous Fatah, headed by the terrorist enabler and Holocaust denier, Mahmoud Abbas, occupies large tracts of the Biblical Jewish heartland in Judea and Samaria. And the Israeli Arabs are learning from their murderous example.
Chapter 14 describes the constitutional division of the Land. The lands were divided by Joshua as chief executive, Elazar the high priest, (notice the continuation of the Jewish name, Elazar, over a three thousand year period) and the heads of the tribes, Rashei Avot, (literally the heads of the fathers of the tribes).
The tribe of Judah received the land to be known as Judea, which is the southern half of today’s so-called West Bank territory including two of Judaism’s holy cities, Hebron and Jerusalem. Judah also received most of the Negev (Chapter 15).
Judah never fully liberated the Philistine coast. This has become a salutary lesson for our own times for in allowing an implacable hostile population to remain, the inevitable danger is always future warfare.
Though Jerusalem and its environs were included in Judah’s inheritance, the city remained in Jebusite hands until its later liberation by King David. He replaced Hebron as the Jewish capital with Jerusalem as the final and eternal capital of both the Jewish state and the Jewish faith.
Chapter 16 is the account of the division of territory among the next important tribal complex; the Joseph tribes. Judah (with Shimon) is the most important; the Joseph tribes, Ephraim and Manasseh (Joseph’s two sons) are the next.
After the death of King Solomon, the Land was ripped in half. The Joseph tribes became in time the nucleus of the northern kingdom of Israel while the tribe of Judah became the nucleus of the southern kingdom of that name. As we know, both halves were to descend into rancor and mutual enmity – sadly a recurring theme within Jewish polity creating ’causeless hatred’ and eventual national calamity.
The Land of Israel thus embraces the territory on both sides of the Jordan River ordained by God. Joshua, Chapter 12, informs us of the pagan kings whom the people of Israel defeated. It lists the lands the Jewish clans possessed east of the Jordan toward the sunrise, from the Valley of the Arnon to Mount Hermon, with all the Arava eastward as follows:
‘Sihon king of the Amorites who lived at Heshbon and ruled from Aroer, which is on the edge of the Valley of the Arnon, and from the middle of the valley as far as the river Jabbok, the boundary of the Ammonites, that is half of Gilead.
The Arava to the Sea of Kinneret (Sea of Galilee) eastward, and in the direction of Beth-Jessimoth to the Sea of the Arava, the Salt Sea, (Dead Sea) southward to the foot of the slopes of Pisgah.
Og, king of Bashan, one of the remnant of the Rephaim, who lived at Ashtaroth and at Edrei and ruled over Mount Hermon and Salecah and all Bashan (the Golan Heights) to the boundary of the Geshurites and the Maacathites, and over half of Gilead to the boundary of Sihon king of Heshbon.
Moses, the servant of the Lord, and the people of Israel defeated them. And Moses the servant of the Lord gave their land as a possession to the Reubenites and the Gadites and the half-tribe of Manasseh.
And these are the kings whom Joshua and the people of Israel defeated on the west side of the Jordan, from Baal-gad in the Valley of Lebanon to Mount Halak that rises toward Seir.
And Joshua gave their land to the tribes of Israel as a possession according to their allotments, in the hill country, in the lowland, in the Arava, in the slopes, in the wilderness, and in the Negev, the land of the Hittites, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites.
These are the other kings defeated by Joshua and whose lands were liberated including Jericho; Ai, which is beside Bethel; Jerusalem; Hebron; Jarmuth; Lachish; Eglon; Gezer; Debir; Geder; Hormah; Arad; Libnah; Adullam; Makkadesh; Bethel; Tappuach; Hepher; Aphek; Lasharon; Madon; Hazor; Shimron-Meron; of Achshaph; Taanach; Megiddo; Kedesh; Yokneam in Carmel; Dor in Naphath-dor; Goim in Galilee; Tirzah: In all, the territories of 31 kings.’
I deliberately quote in full from the Biblical verses in order to more fully provide the geographical extent of the territories involved in the Great Liberation. Subsequent chapters and verses in the Book of Joshua list additional liberated territories as does the following Book of Judges.
Much of this ancient land still remains within the present day State of Israel but a significant portion has already been given to the fraudulent Palestinian Authority, which occupies territory in the heartland of the original possession of the Twelve Tribes of Israel – Judea and Samaria (aka the ‘West Bank’).
In addition, some of the Biblical possessions of the Jewish Tribes now lie within the Arab state of Syria or in those artificially created Arab states of the 20th century, including Lebanon and Jordan.
Some of the locations named above that have been reconstituted as Jewish villages after the liberation of 1967 are described by much of the world’s media in pejorative terms.
They use the term, ‘settlements,’ to describe them, which in the English language tends to falsely imply that they are colonial outposts of a people with no roots in the Land.
Such charges are routinely used in their deliberate de-legitimizing of both the Jewish residents and of Biblical Jewish history itself. Israel is under relentless pressure from the U.S. State Department, from the previous President Barack Hussein Obama, from the present President Biden, from the morally problematic European Union and, of course, from the depraved United Nations, to abandon these Jewish towns and villages to those Arabs who call themselves Palestinians – to further the so-called ‘Peace Process’ or the grotesque ‘Two-State-Solution.’
We know, of course, that such previous abandonment has given Israel no peace but greater Arab violence and aggression. In listing the God-given land that the Jewish people are meant to hold in trust as an everlasting covenant.
Israeli left-wing organizations, such as Peace Now and J-Street are heavily funded by the mendacious European Union, relentlessly hounding and tormenting precious Jewish souls who wish only to fulfill the desire to live within every cherished part of Eretz Yisrael; the Land of Israel.
