On
March
28,
2006 Anti-Zionist Orthodox Jews in
Jerusalem protested the elections in
the
Zionist state which calls itself
'Israel' and called for returning
the Palestinian borders to where they
were prior to 1948.
WHAT IS WRONG WITH THE STATE
OF “ISRAEL’S” ELECTIONS?
During the scheduled election on March
28, 2006 large
demonstrations
were held throughout the Holy Land.
Their aim was to alert the Jewish
people
not to participate in the State of “Israel’s” elections.
Rabbi Yisroel Dovid Weiss, spokesperson
for Neturei Karta International declared “The
State of ‘Israel’ is not
a Jewish State but a Zionist State and
is illegitimate and forbidden according
to Jewish law. According to the true
Jewish belief, Jews are forbidden to
create their own state before the coming
of the Messiah (Talmud, Tractate Kesuboth,
p.111).”
“Judaism is a religion and spirituality.
Turning Judaism on its head, transforming
this holy religion into a materialistic
nationalism, with a singular earthly
goal of land conquest and military prowess,
void of Godliness, is exactly what the
State of ‘Israel’ is about.
Attempting to leave exile and all the
other cardinal crimes associated and
committed by Zionism and its ‘State’,
such as the theft from, subjugation and
oppression of, the Palestinian people,
the continuous attempts to uproot the
Torah and oppress the Torah-true Jews,
etc., are to us religious Jews the worst
tragedy.”
“Orthodox Torah-true Jews are
humiliated and pained by the terrible
crimes that Zionism and its ‘State’ are
committing. The humiliation is compounded,
when this is being done in the name of ‘Israel’,
the name that Zionism has appropriated
from the Jewish religion.”
“Therefore we disassociate ourselves
entirely from the State of ‘Israel’ and
reiterate the decree of our sages that
it is forbidden to participate in the ‘Israeli’ elections.”
“We pray for the speedy and peaceful
dismantlement of the entire State of ‘Israel’.
Our yearning and prayers are ultimately
for the revelation of the glory of the
Almighty, when all nations will serve
Him, in harmony and joy. Amen.” |
