Revava Board Game Update

[David Ha'Ivri]

Revava Game in Harvard Political Archive  *This week there was a report on Israeli Channel 10 which included footage of an archive of political items at Harvard University. Much to our surprise one of the many items shown was the "Revava: Changing the Rules of the Game" board game.
 This shows without a doubt just how novel an idea this game was and how powerful a message it can send. It's influence has literally made it around the world.

[Real Jew]

It may have made it around the world, but here at home it has acomplished nothing.

It is time for real leadership - like Rabbi Kahane!!!

[DevoraChaya]

Mazal Tov, David!  It is a good idea.

Another armchair warrior 

I am sick of people kvetching about the lack of leadership and everything we are NOT doing, while they do even less.
You don't like something? Make a suggestion, you are a leader or know of one, get down to work.

Rav Kahane is not the only leader we have lost, in fact there are barely ANY true leaders left in the Jewish community, religious or political.
That makes it all the more important that everyone do their part instead of kloping their chest and remembering the "good old days" lamenting "how the mighty have fallen"

[Real Jew]

Rabbi Kahane was the only Jewish leader who stood up
for the real truth.  He did not shy from the true message.
all the other so called leaders where poloticians more
then true leaders.  All of our leaders are just trying to
copy Rabbi Kahane and doing a lousy job.

No, probably just the SAME one again.    He multiplies himself to make it look like a lot of people are against Revava.

I agree wholeheartedly, but unless you have mastered the skill of resurrecting the dead, we will have to do the best we can...

I have still yet to hear a SINGLE suggestion of how we can make things better.
It say in Pirki Avos, Where there are no men, strive to be a man! If you are unhappy with the leadership, propose a viable alternative.

Instead you choose to be an anonymous troll on an internet forum....

Changing the Rules of the Game

The Land of Israel is in danger.
Leaders devoid of leadership are presenting the surrender of parts of Israel to our enemies as a solution. There is currently a clear and present danger of Jews being expelled from their homes and their and settlements being destroyed. The destroyers are not afraid to take any action necessary to carry out their evil plans.
In the name of false democracy they are willing to beat women and children, destroy their homes and synagogues uproot every tree and send to jail anyone faithful to Eretz Yisrael. They are sending IDF soldiers to lift their hands against Jews and defame the entire settlement enterprise, while at the same time accuse the settlers of violating the rules of the game.

Who decides on the rules of the game? Hilltop Youth? Women in Green? Jewish Leadership (Manhigut Yehudit)? Revava activists all over Israel? Or is it the Shin Bet and the military leadership following corrupt politicians from the right and left?

Previously during the surrender of the Sinai Peninsula to Egypt thousands of G-d fearing Jews were willing to go out with great sacrifice and defend the Land of Israel but due to a lack of organization and leadership they were not able to prevent the surrender of land to our enemy. Are the people now willing to learn from the mistakes of the past and not repeat them? We have the ability to prevent the surrender of Jewish land to those who hate us.

Currently a new educational game is being distributed which sends the message LOUD and CLEAR Eretz Yisrael is not for sale!! The game is called "Revava changing the rules of the game." In this game Jews who are faithful to the Nation, Torah and Land are the ones who decide the rules of the game. The objective is to recruit a Reveva- 10,000 Jews who are willing to act with self sacrifice to preserve the ENTIRE Land of Israel. Each player has the opportunity to stop the State of Israel from the self-destructing. Everyone in his turn recruits more and more Jews each according to his own path to be activists for Israel. Either by setting up a roadblock in the Center of the Carmel, Dimona or anyplace else when a settlement or outpost is being dismantled in Yesha, Creating new outposts or by joining political parties and to cause them to collapse from within. Every individual path is acceptable in order to guard the integrity of the Land of Israel. Our rightful claim to the Land of Israel is our common denominator, something that is self understood and not open for discussion.

Everyone can take part.
All of us together, will beat the system!

It may have made it around the world, but here at home it has acomplished nothing.

You can't create leaders out of thin air.
Leaders and Tzaddikim are sent by G-d, a regular guy can't just wake up one morning and decide to be a leader that sweeps the entire nation.

Now, the options we have are:

1. Sit still and pray to G-d to send us another leader like Rav Kahane.
2. To pray to G-d to send us another leader like Rav Kahane, but do something which matches our abilities and options meanwhile.

If your choice is the first option, i have no problem with it. Seriously.
But personally, i prefer the second option.

[DevoraChaya]

The first thing that has to be is that every Jew who wants to address the problem needs to be here physically.  That is the very first step.  Maybe he doesn't even have to think about being here permanently right now, but at least he needs to be here during the crisis period when every body is needed.

Second, I'd like to see more organization; a person to contact and a way to plan and discuss without being so public about it.  If there is a contact person in Yerushalayim, I'd be happy to know about it.

I'm ready to commit time and energy and take risks even (as in the past), but only if it is for something which has the potential to create real change.  For example, I generally do not respond to calls of any kind from the Yesha Council.

Personally, I don't like being on the defensive, being limited to reacting to government moves.  They set a fire here and a fire there and we are running all over the country trying to put out each little fire, when what really needs to be done is the firestarter must be stopped before he sets any more fires.

I'm thinking along the lines of offense, of taking the battle to the enemy's gate.  If anyone favors this approach, people in Tapuach and Elon Moreh know where to find me and should be able to vouch that I am no Shabak plant.

[Tzvi Ben Roshel]

when is the "crisis  period" exactly?

[Yaakov Ish Tam]

This Thursday, Lawyers for Revava will be petitioning the Magistrates Court in Jerusalem to return all  of the Revava: Changing the rules of the Game board games which they confiscated in the past 6 months. The reason given for taking the games was that they were "suspected" of containing incitement, a suspicion which after nearly an entire year has not yet been confirmed or denied by the Attorney General or his staff. In fact the Hebron Police originally decided that the game was completely fine and told us to come pick them up, a decision later reversed by the Attorney General himself.

Revava is demanding that either the government issue an indictment or they return the games at once and stop harassing right wing activists for speaking their minds. If we are brought to trial we are certain that we will be acquitted as there is not even a whiff of incitement in the game, and even if there is since when are manufacturers held responsible for illegal acts which occur in the confines of a game?

Either way as our original stock is completely depleted and orders keep pouring in we have decided to produce a second edition of the game. There were several mistakes and omissions in the first edition so if anyone has any corrections or suggestions please post them on the Revava Forum.

In addition we need sponsors to defray the initial cost of producing a game which we estimate will cost somewhere in the range of $10,000. The first game was a huge success and allowed us to spread the Revava ideology to thousands of people in a fun and interesting way. Everyone from Kids to Grandparents fell in love with the game as soon as they saw it and demand for it is constantly increasing, especially with the recent media coverage. Help us to reach more and more people with the message of Ahavat Yisrael, Self Sacrifice for Torah and Eretz Yisrael and not to be afraid to stand up for what we believe in even against the threats of government pressure and harassment.
Investing in this game is really an investment in the future of Eretz Yisrael and the younger generation of Jews who will hopefully grow up to be Proud Jews dedicated to Torah and the People of Israel.

PS They delayed the hearing to return the games until the day before Yom Yerushalayim. I will keep you posted on what happens.

[Pesach - Canada]

How can I get a copy of the game ... would love to play it on Shabbat if it is (halachically) permissible.

[doom777]

Is revava officially considered a terrorist organization by US? In other words, will I end up in Guanto bay for donating?
