The demise of AIPAC
By Dr. Yehuda Tzoref   May 26, 2005

Whether AIPAC represents the majority of American Jewry, that's questionable, however AIPAC's open support for Sharon's planned destruction of the Jewish province of Gush Katif is a shameful display of inexcusable depravity. For Sharon's policy is a reprehensible disengagement from the basic values of democracy, humanism and Jewish morals.

By its avowed backing of Sharon, AIPAC leadership betrays not only the sustainable future of Israel but also the American constitutional principles of justice, defense and liberty. The so-called Disengagement Plan is unheard-of in the history of moral civilizations, least of all in USA. No nation would ever dare to be morbidly infected by even hypothetically consider such perpetration of ethnic cleansing against its own fellow-countrymen.

Whether AIPAC members do not have a clue about Sharon's political brutality, that's indeed conjectural, but their double-standard morality syndrome, that selectively blinds their senses as well as conscience, should be traced down to the enemies of Israel. In his obsessive and reckless stampede to press the Disengagement, Sharon has been violating every possible value of democracy.

Not only is the Disengagement is a flagrant violation of the fundamental democratic law of Human Freedom and Dignity, the "plan" has been promoted by deception of the electorate. The election results granted solid electoral majority to a national platform committed to the integrity of all Jewish settlements in Judea, Samaria and Gaza Strip. However, Sharon disregarded the election results in order to enforce a far-left policy against the conscience and conviction of the right-wing majority that brought him to power.

Sharon's treacherous deception of his staunch electorate and betrayal of their democratic confidence are just the tip of the iceberg in the twilight zone of his crimes against democracy. Within a few years of his term in power, Sharon has been persistently undermining the very existence of Israel.

A thorough process of national restoration will be required after the termination of Sharon's reign of corruption, tyranny, bribery, crime and anarchy, that inflicted deadly blows on Israel's fragile democracy, national solidarity, morality, morale, security and durability. This is the "democratic leader" so fervently acclaimed by AIPAC.
