Dear Jews! Good Jews!
Shalom and blessings for a chag kasher v'sameach from Tzion!
Please accept my apologies for not responding sooner to your comments and questions. Thank you for your patience. As no doubt everyone is right now, I am swamped with Pesach preparations. (And remember that I already said I am no blogger!)
Now, I will try to answer some of your questions. Please excuse me if I miss anyone.

You are talking about AmericanJews... but what about Europe, Australia....Any comments?
As America goes, so goes the rest of the Western world, but because America is the leader, she must be stopped cold in her tracks. Depending on who is counting and how, the number of Jews in America is somewhere between 5 and 7 million---the largest group of the entire Diaspora.
I'm sure most of you have seen the Debkafile report about the possibility of nullifying the Right of Return for Jews. From the world's perspective, if the Israeli government continues to refuse to consider a Right of Return for 'Palestinians,' then it will most assuredly have to give up it's own claim to such a "right."
Pollard may be offered as a sweetener to make this bitter pill go down better. I would look for this to go into effect in the wake of Pollard's release. In my previous post on Logistics, I recommended the following:
Number 1! Go to the nearest Jewish Agency office and open a file for aliyah!! You can do this even if you don't plan to make aliyah for a couple of years.
As far as I know, there is no cost or obligation involved. Quite possibly, those who already have files open would be allowed in but no new ones would be opened, chas v'shalom! Obviously, then, this would affect every Jew in the Diaspora wherever he might be.

What do you make of Rav Eliahu Leon Levi's R"H Nissan call to Israelis to prepare for an immanent war (published by Tzvi Fishman on Arutz 7)?
It makes sense with everything else we see going on around us, so I take the warning to heart.
Moshe Meir said:
Yerushalmi: Here we are in 4 Nissan, Jonathan Pollard is still in jail and the Yellowstone volcano did not erupt. Care to comment on this?
It is now 9 Nissan, Moshe Meir, and JPollard is still in jail and the Yellowstone is still peaceful. I have already mentioned many times throughout the blog---"as I said before I am not 100% WHEN it will take place." But many sources agreed that this Nissan is an auspicious time. As the countdown shows, there are 22 days left in Nissan.
But even after Nissan will pass, we see that historically three very important events occurred in Iyyar. On 5 Iyyar, Israel was reborn as an independent nation. On 14 Iyyar, Pesach Sheini takes place. And on 28 Iyyar, Yerushalayim came back into Jewish hands. So, even if Nissan will pass without a decisive event, I will continue to wait and watch and prepare. Even so, let's look at what has already transpired since Rosh Chodesh Nissan 5767:
- 1 Nissan---Israel, in cooperation with US military, held an unprecedented nationwide missile attack drill and a major mekubal issued a warning to prepare for an imminent outbreak of war.
- 4 Nissan---US and UK bases and Middle East armies go on high alert when Iran captured 15 British seamen and marines.
- 5 Nissan---the UN Security Council voted to increase sanctions on Iran.
- 6 Nissan---Condoleezza Rice and Ban Ki-Moon both arrive in Jerusalem.
- 7 Nissan---Word of an April 6th planned attack on Iran by the US is leaked by Russian sources
- 8 Nissan---stocks drop and oil prices soar on escalating tensions between both the UK and the US and Iran.
- 9 Nissan---The Arab Summit in Riyadh begins. "Participants at the Summit are expected to re-endorse an Arab-Israeli peace plan proposed in 2002 by Saudi Arabian King Abdullah. "
Things are happening. It's not an exhaustive list, but maybe the most significant. Keep watching, Moshe Meir! And remember that the whole week Moshe Rabeinu argued with HKBH about being the Redeemer, Am Yisrael was slaving away without a clue that their servitude was coming to an end.
