Judaism And

You have always without a
doubt heard and read much about the political crises
in the Middle East in which the State of Israel
plays a central role. This is, in fact, an ongoing
series of crises with potential to bring the
greatest misfortune on the entire world. Tragically
many believe that Zionism and Judaism are identical.
Thus they conclude that the entire Jewish people is
responsible for the actions of the Zionist
government and the world crises which emanates from
it. This is a Grave Error! The truth is that the
Jewish faith and Zionism are two very different
philosophies. They are as opposite as day and night.
The Jewish people have existed for thousands of
years. In their two thousand years of Divinely
decreed exile no Jew ever sought to end this exile
and establish independent political sovereignty
anywhere. The people's sole purpose was the study
and fulfillment of the Divine commandments of the
Torah. The Zionist movement created
the Israeli state. The latter is a persuasion less
than one hundred years old. Its essential goal was
and is to change the nature of the Jewish people
from that of a religious entity to a political
movement. From Zionism's inception the spiritual
leaders of the Jewish people stood in staunch
opposition to it. To this day Torah Jewry
remains forever loyal to its faith. Zionists want
the world to believe that they are the
representatives of the entire Jewish people. This is
false! The Jewish people never chose them as their
leaders. The Zionists have deceived
many well meaning Jewish people via terror, trickery
and false propaganda. They have at their disposal
the use of a nearly universally subservient media.
Whoever attempts to criticize them puts his
livelihood and, at times, his very life in danger. However, despite the media
blackout and easy resort to terror the simple truth
remains unrefuted and irrefutable: ACCORDING TO THE
JEWISH FAITH AND TORAH LAW THE JEWISH PEOPLE ARE
FORBIDDEN TO HAVE THEIR OWN STATE WHILE AWAITING THE
MESSIANIC ERA! The Creator gave us the Holy
Land thousands of years ago. Yet, when we sinned, He
took it away and sent us into exile. Since that time
our task is to wait for Him to send the Messiah. At
that time, the Creator alone, without any human
being lifting a hand or saying a word, will bring us
together and take us out of exile. He will likewise
establish universal peace among all mankind and all
will serve Him in good will. Some religious Jews, confused
by Zionist propaganda quote Biblical verses that
state that G-d gave the children of Israel the Holy
Land. They overlook, unfortunately, those verses
which say that He took it away due to our sins. They
further ignore those prophecies which explicitly
describe the last exile's conclusion as a Divine,
not a human process. The Creator has commanded
every Jew to follow the ways of peace and to be
loyal to the country where he lives. Torah true Jewry waits
patiently for the Messianic redemption. They have
nothing to do with any kind of pseudo "Jewish State"
and its aggressions against other peoples. They have
a deep sympathy for the plight of the Palestinians
who have suffered the most from Zionism's false
teachings and barbaric actions. The Zionist state is
not a Jewish state. The Zionists alone are the only
ones responsible for their actions. Authentic Jewry
has and will continue to oppose the very existence
of this blasphemous state.
May all mankind witness the true redemption. |
