The national camp in Israel is certainly working on some inspiring ideas for this coming election. From Israel National News:

Right-wing MKs, yeshiva students and other volunteers are working intensively together to increase support for the right-wing nationalist camp.

In some yeshivot, the students have been asked to volunteer two evenings of their busy schedule for the cause. Knesset Members of the right-wing parties are traveling around the country canvassing support for the initiative, and it is viewed as "the thing to do" in many Yesha communities and centers. What is it? The campaign to increase votes for the right-wing parties.

Susie Dym [coordinator of the Cities of Israel grassroots organization] herself says she finds the work rewarding and easier than she thought. "I hate calling," she told Arutz-7's Ruti Avraham, "and I thought it would be very nerve-racking, but it turned out to be the opposite. It went very smoothly, and I managed to make 48 calls in an hour and a quarter."

"I simply asked if we could count on their vote on Election Day. I felt that they were surprised and even moved to hear from a genuine volunteer in this period of corruption and cynicism. I think the fact that I was a volunteer made a better impression than any other argument I raised."

Man, that's good to know that she's found it easier than she may have first thought. Susie Dym is a most inspiring woman indeed.

In other news, there's Ehud Olmert's master plan to destroy Yesha communities, which, as the right wing parties rightfully warn, could be taken over by the Hamas. And if it is, then just like in Gaza, they could use the areas as places from which to fire kassam rockets at Israeli targets with even better range than before.
