Check out the argumentation over whether David Rubin and Achikam Amichai should have been doing what they were doing and whether Rav Dov Li'or was right in his encouragement of hikes.

My thoughts, assertions and observations on issues important to me as a Jew, a Zionist, a Revenant in Yesha and as an inquisitive human being.
About Me
- YMedad
- Shiloh, Benjamin District, Samaria, Israel
- American born, my wife and I moved to Israel in 1970. We have lived at Shiloh together with our family since 1981. I was in the Betar youth movement in the US and UK. I have worked as a political aide to Members of Knesset and a Minister during 1981-1994, lectured at the Academy for National Studies 1977-1994, was director of Israel's Media Watch 1995-2000 and currently, I work at the Menachem Begin Heritage Center in Jerusalem. I was a guest media columnist on media affairs for The Jerusalem Post, op-ed contributor to various journals and for six years had a weekly media show on Arutz 7 radio. I serve as an unofficial spokesperson for the Jewish Communities in Judea & Samaria.

I don't think this is the right time for this conversation. People at this moment are deep in mourning and they do not have to be subject or tohear that people feel they had no right to hike.
My personal belief is that they were perfectly in the right and had they felt they were putting themselbves in real danger they would not have ventured out. Please check out the youtube that is posted at various sites of Hagaon Rav Ahron SOloveichik who says it like it is. His words can provide a little degree of comfort to all the mourners.
We should share in better news,
Joshua Nathan
PS People have every right to walk and hike in their backyard if we refrain from these type of activities we have haned the biggest victory to our sworn enemies. When will people learn that is we the JEws that want peace but we have no partner.
