Just received from Israel (re assisting Prime Minister Netanayhu who is trying to stand strongly against the Palestinian state issue):
LET'S GET SERIOUS ABOUT COMBATING THE PALESTINIAN STATE NOTION
We need the help of all major Orthodox public affairs and media organizations in the United States to combat the Palestinian state notion. So far, only wonderful Young Israel has really started working to keep those rockets away from Jerusalem, Tel-Aviv and Ben-Gurion airport. If we aren't speaking for A LARGE GROUP OF PEOPLE, these organizations (Agudath Yisroel, AMIT, Emuna Women, Nachum Segal Radio Show, Yated Neeman, etc.) will simply say NO when we ask for their help. So, we need several thousand people to sign this petition: http://www.petitiononline.com/1eys/petition.html. We will then promptly approach each of the Orthodox Jewish media and public affairs organizations in the name of the whole group and ask them to help. Prime Minister Netanyahu's first trip to the US is in a few days time so please sign TODAY and pass on. Thank you very much. Notes:
(1) Please don't fuss about the precise wording of the petition since it does not matter at all.
(2) When asked for "state", simply write "none" if you live outside the USA
(3) Sometimes the petition doesn't work well, but if you click around, eventually it "lets you" sign. Thanks.
THANK YOU, KNESSET MEMBER DANNY DANON
Danny Danon is a Likud member of Knesset who represents Israel's Coastal Plain -- a highly populated area here in Israel, including many cities which will be within rocket range of Palestinian state. Mr. Danon will be holding a "no to Palestinian state" session in the Knesset this Wednesday 13 May at 10:00 AM. To attend, please email to ddanon@knesset.gov.il indicating your name - preferably in Hebrew exactly as it appears in your teudat zehut, cell phone number and teudat zehut number. Your email should be entitled "ishur knisa" since the purpose of the email is to arrange an "ishur knisa" (permit to enter the Knesset on that day). Then, arrive at the Knesset at 9:30 AM and say you are attending the "no Palestinian event" in the Yerushalayim Hall in the Knesset as a guest of MK Danny Danon. If you don't get an email reply from Mr. Danon's office tomorrow, email again to make sure your "ishur knisa" has been arranged.
AMERICAN CITIZENS, HOW ARE YOUR WRITING SKILLS? -- suggestion from David Bedein
Establishing a Palestinian state means deporting more Jewish communities and handing over their property to terrorists, following the precedent of Gush Katif. There are US Congressional committees that oversee all aspects of American Middle East policy - ONLY if they are inundated with well-reasoned calls and letters to do so. Give your letter a title which makes it immediately clear that you are against Palestinian state. Write to (then call to follow up):

REHOVOT SAYS NO TO PALESTINIAN STATE
Israel's 20th largest city, Rehovot, is home of the world-famous Weizman Institute of Science and was also home to Israeli former Presidents Chaim Weizman and Prof. Efraim Katzir and former Prime Minister Sharon. 70% of Rehovot's Municipal Council members (14 out of 20) have signed a letter opposing Palestinian state, in order to keep rockets out of Rehovot. http://www.mynet.co.il/articles/0,7340,L-3711559,00.html. (in Hebrew)
Thanks for helping Israel.
