Titolo: Un must read! Un Rabbino su terrorismo israeliano.

devo dire che mi sto ricredendo su internet, c'e'
chiaramente una marea di spazzatura ma se si sa usare
un motore di ricerca si trovano cose incredibili: leggere per credere.
Per inciso stavo cercando  il Baruch Goldstein e ho scoperto di 
un incidente di cui non avevo assolutamente notizia.
Anche se avete dei problemi con l'inglese sforzatevi e leggetevi tutto
il documento - davvero merita - metto un trailers per invogliarvi.

Temple Shalom Sermons
Nazism: Not A Christian Phenomenon
September 22, 2000
by Rabbi Bruce E. Kahn
[..]
I want to ask you to consider some thoughts of mine before we go back
through this paragraph about Christianity and Nazism.
Some years ago, when Chaim Herzog served as Israel's president, he
signed a paper commuting the prison sentences of a group of Jewish
zealots. At the end of that week I gave a sermon in which I said that
Israel was losing its soul. Why?
These zealots, seven years before, had taken automatic weapons and
opened fire on Arab students at an Arab University in the West Bank.
No demonstrations were under way; the victims were perpetrating no
violations of the law. These zealots opened fire and murdered and
maimed numerous students because that is what the zealots thought was
necessary to do for the glory of God and Judaism and for the security
of Israel.
The zealots were from the right wing Orthodox community; well schooled
in Jewish sources and highly disciplined about their observance of
their faith. The young men who carried out this heinous crime were
sentenced to life in prison.
Jews from around the United States began sending huge amounts of money
to generate a series of appeals and protests over the sentencing of
the zealots. Groups inside Israel staged demonstrations on behalf of
the murderers. After a time, the life sentences were reduced to
sentences of twenty years each. Then another paper was signed
commuting the sentences to twelve years.
The protests grew larger and uglier. Thousands of Israelis and
thousands more American Jews would settle for nothing less than the
unconditional release of the men who had been convicted of these
terrible crimes. Finally, President Herzog gave in and signed the
commutation order. For each prisoner the sentence reduced to time
served, seven years.
The Jewish zealot murderers were released from prison and for days
afterward, tens of thousands of Jews paraded the released inmates
around Israel as heroes! That was when I gave my talk about Israel
losing its soul. I condemned with every bit of sincerity I could
muster the beloved president of Israel whose moral strength failed
him. I attacked him for performing the disgusting act of freeing these
men, who served less time for murdering Arab students who had done
nothing than the time some Arabs received who languished in Israeli
prisons with no charges at all filed against them.
What could we say about the meaning of Judaism at such a time? What
could we say Judaism represented to the other Arab students? What
could we say Judaism was all about to non-Jews in the west in the
midst of this collapse of Jewish values by so many people of varying
ranks from top to bottom in the Jewish world?

Sono restato impressionato, davvero. 
Mi sono comunque convinto  che il  motore di ricerca sul sito BBC 
fa davvero senso - la BBC e' una miniera di risorse
ma si fa fatica a trovare materiale utile per controllo incrociato
con quello che definire un motore di ricerca e' direi esagerato.
Ho pescato solo questo:

Anti-Arab riots spark  Israeli soulsearching
c'e' da dire che la BBC ha l'archivio on-line dalla meta' anni 90.
Provando con google ho tirato su molta piu' roba,
compresa una fonte che non ho ben capito come classifiicarla
quindi queste due risorse qui sotto non le uso come "fonte" 
ma come elenco di date e fatti e nomi per fare ulteriori ricerche.

Gush Emunim's record of violence goes back long before the
massacre at the Ibrahimi mosque. In 1980 Gush members set off car
bombs that crippled two Palestinian mayors. Shortly afterward they
exploded a fragmentation grenade in the Hebron market that severely
wounded several children. Three years later Gush members dressed
as Arabs burst into Islamic University in Hebron and killed three
students. More recently, Gush Emunim's leader, Moshe Levinger,
spent 10 weeks in jail for murdering a Palestinian shopkeeper, and
was hailed by his followers as a hero when he got out. In midMarch
the Israeli human rights group B'Tselem reported that since 1988
settlers had killed at least 62 Palestinians but that few of the
killers had
been punished. Eighteenyear-old Fatima Kahlaifa was not included in

In the last analysis, Israel's hope for lasting security depends on
its
acceptance, Before it's too late, of peaceful coexistence with the
Palestinians in two separate independent states. Otherwise Israelis
are bound to learn that you can't lock someone in a cage year after
year, constantly prodding him through the bars, and expect that he
will
never exact revenge.

Questo proviene dalla stessa source, again, considerare il mio

lo uso solo come cronologia di nomi, fatti e persone - volevo usare
questi nomi sull'archivio BBC ma purtroppo.. non c'e' per queste date

Attempts to Destroy the Haram al-Sharif Have a Long History
By Stephen J. Sosebee
November/December 1996, pgs. 16-17
The violent clashes that left 70 dead in the West Bank and Gaza Strip
are both the result of
Arab frustration over the lack of progress in the so-called peace
process and an example of
 how greatly Palestinians fear for the security of the Dome of the
Rock and Al-Aqsa mosque,
 which make up the Haram al-Sharif. Their fear for Islam's third
holiest site, called the Temple
[..]
n the 1970s extremist groups devoted to retaking the Temple Mount
began a campaign of
 provocation and violence against the Haram al-Sharif, including the
digging of tunnels,
attempts to enter the area by force and, increasingly, efforts to bomb
the two mosques.
Between 1978 and 1982, the Waqf documented 200 acts of desecration and
provocation on
or near the Haram al-Sharif by Israeli extremists.
In 1982, Allan Goodman, an Israeli soldier with an American passport,
charged into the Haram
 al-Sharif, spraying worshippers with gunfire, killing two and
wounding 30. According to
Israel's Ma'ariv newspaper, Goodman was recently seen trying to enter
the area with
tourists during one of his 48-hour releases from prison. Goodman has
not shown any
 remorse for the murders, saying that his actions were not bad because
"no Jews were
 killed." 
In the early 1980s, the Haram al-Sharif was seriously targeted for
destruction by Israeli
underground terrorist groups. In January 1984, a terror cell was
arrested while trying to
scale the walls around Al-Aqsa carrying arms and explosives. Several
months later,
members of a larger cell were arrested as they placed bombs under Arab
buses in
Jerusalem. Calling themselves "Terror Against Terror," they bombed
three West Bank mayors'
cars, killed students in a machine gun attack on Hebron University and
put bombs in Arab
 markets and sports stadiums. This group of settlers had detailed
plans and the explosives to
 blow up both mosques, Al-Aqsa and the Dome of the Rock. Palestinians
are well aware that
