Shortly before
Israeli occupation soldiers murdered in cold blood two Gaza children ,
who apparently were searching for scrap metal to sell for a few cents
in order to help feed their impoverished families, the former Chief
rabbi of Israel, Mordechai Elyahu, urged the Israeli army and
government to use the "Nazi choice" against Palestinians.
Elyahu reportedly
petitioned the Israeli government to carry out a series of carpet
bombing of Palestinian population centers in Gaza, arguing that a ground
invasion of the world's most crowded spot would endanger Israeli
soldiers.
"If they don't stop
after we kill 100, then we must kill a thousand," said Shmuel Elyahu,
the son of Mordechai Elyahu, quoting his father. "And if they do not
stop after 1,000, then we must kill 10,000. If they still don't stop we
must kill 100,000, even a million. Whatever it takes to make them stop."
Mordechai, considered
one of the most knowledgeable Talmudic sages in Israel, said it was
forbidden to risk the lives of Jews for fear of injuring and killing
Palestinian civilians.
This is not the first
time Elyahu issues such an outrageous Talmudic edict. A few years ago,
he called on the Israeli occupation army not to refrain from killing
Palestinian children if that meant "saving Jewish lives."
Elyahu is associated
with Merkaz Ha'rav, a Talmudic College in West Jerusalem, that is
largely considered to be the theological and ideological nerve center
of religious-messianic Zionism.
The College teaches
and promotes the teachings of Rabbi Abraham Isaac Kook, the first Chief
Rabbi of the immigrant Jewish community in Palestine who is viewed as
the religious and spiritual godfather and mentor of the settler
movement, known as Gush Emunim (the bloc of faithful."
According to Israeli
writer Yair Sheleg Rabbi Kook wrote that "the difference between the
Jewish soul and the souls of all non-Jews, no matter what their rank and
level of understanding, is bigger and deeper than the difference between
the human soul and the animal soul." (Moses and the Prophets never
taught this outrageous invention which is totally incompatible with the
Abrahamic traditions).
This totally racist
discourse toward non-Jews represents the mainstream and modus operandi
at Merkaz Ha'rav where Talmudic sages such as Haim Druckman, Avraham
Shapira, Dov Lior, etc, teach that non-Jews are sub-humans, and ought
to be enslaved or destroyed.
Western people,
constantly brainwashed with unceasing Zionist propaganda and
disinformation about Israeli "democracy" and "liberalism" might be
prompted to think that such ideas are marginal, eccentric or even
anecdotal and that they are espoused by only a small bunch of Talmudic
extremists.
But this is not the
case at all. Today, this Nazi-like ideology is "manual for action" for
hundreds of thousands of Jews around the world, especially in Israel,
including the estimated half a million settlers in the West Bank and
East Jerusalem who openly claim that non-Jews living under Jewish rule
ought to be enslaved, expelled or annihilated.
A few years ago, Haim
Yavin, a prominent TV personality in Israel, did a documentary on Jewish
settlers in the West Bank and how they viewed their Arab neighbors.
The documentary
featured a Jewish settler woman who told Yavin that "if we Jews get
together, we will make the Palestinians our slaves and "Muhammed" will
make coffee for both of us."!!!
The more radical
settlers (we are talking about tens of thousands of people, such as the
followers of Baruch Goldstein, the Jewish terrorist who in 1994 murdered
29 Palestinian civilians while praying at the Ibrahimi Mosque in
downtown Hebron, and the so-called hilltop youths) go one step further
and believe that Palestinians belong to one and only place: The Ovens.
Last year, when some
peace-minded Israeli activists visited Hebron and sought to erase
graffiti reading "Arabs to the Oven" scrawled outside the settler
compound of Abraham Avino, local settlers ganged up on the activists,
calling them "Nazis, Arab lovers, and whores" as pro-settler policemen
and soldiers looked on rather passively. One particularly nasty settler
woman, the wife of a rabbi, shouted at one female activist, saying "How
many Arabs did you sleep with today?"
There is no doubt
that the nefarious ideas of Jewish supremacy, as taught by Talmudic
circles such as Mirkaz Ha'rav, is poisoning and even Nazifying the
minds of thousands of Jewish and Israeli youths.
Earlier in May, a
recent Jewish immigrant from France murdered in cold blood an Arab taxi
driver from East Jerusalem after beguiling the unsuspecting victim to
take him to Netanya.
The murderer, named
Julian Sufir, had apparently been subjected to heavy doses of
religious indoctrination at a synagogue near his home, which probably
preached the message that non-Jews are infra-humans.
When this Sufir was
interrogated by policy, he so calmly and nonchalantly told them that "I
just wanted to kill an Arab, any Arab. There is no difference between
killing an Arab and killing an animal. When I killed him, I felt I was
slaughtering a sheep.!!" (see my article "Hypocrisy with French Flavor-
www.thepeoplevoice.org)
In truth, one can
hardly exaggerate the danger of these powerful fascist elements in
Israel as a growing number of Jewish youngsters are being inculcated
with the same venomous hatred and fascistic mindset that once
brainwashed German youths more than sixty years ago. We know the rest of
the story.
This danger is so
real and so tangible especially when one considers the fact that tens
of thousands of Israeli occupation soldiers happen to be graduates of
Talmudic schools, known as Yeshevot.
Needless to say,
most of these schools teach that killing innocent Arab children is a
great mitzvah and makes a Jew closer to God.
This little-known
fact, which most westerners are not allowed to know or even discover,
explains why Jewish soldiers in Gaza and Nablus shoot Palestinian school
children right in the head with no compunction or guilty conscience.
Finally, the peoples
of the world, including many honest and peace-minded Jews, are invited
to imagine how Israel would look like and how the world would look like
when these Judeo-Nazi forces assume power in Israel and be in control
of Israel's 300 nuclear bombs.
I say "when" because
the Israeli Jewish society is drifting menacingly to jingoistic
religious chauvinism that can be compared with the drifting ideological
currents among Germans in the mid and late 1930s. Hence, a takeover of
power in Israel by the settler and pro-settler camp is not a matter of
"if" but rather "when" it will happen.
This is not a matter
of concern for Palestinians and Arabs and Muslims alone. The whole world
would be facing a real danger. Germany, too, would be in danger since
Talmudic sages are already saying that Germans would eventually be
forced to pay dearly for the holocaust. |
