Many of the most ardent Zionists, the
religious settlers in particular, are vehemently anti-Christian. There’s none of this Judeo-Christian heritage
for them. Admittedly the idea of a
Judeo-Christian tradition is a myth which resulted from Israel’s strategic need
to cultivate Europe and secure reparations and arms supplies.

The latest act of vandalism is quite
likely to have been caused by the anti-miscegenation neo-Nazi group, Lehava,
half of whose funds come from the Israeli government via its ‘charitable’ wing

Gopstein, the outspoken head of Lehava – which has drawn notoriety for its
violent assaults on Jewish-Arab assimilation – made the remarks at a panel
discussion for Jewish yeshiva students when asked by a fellow panelist if he
believed burning down churches in Israel was justified.”

went on to report that:
“However, Shin Bet – Israel’s domestic intelligence agency – recently
concluded that there are no legal grounds for similarly outlawing Lehava,
despite a request from Mr Ya’alon to consider doing so.”
Ya’alon is Israel’s Defence (War)
Minister. Israel’s Northern Islamic
League, which engages in such terrorist activities as providing grants for Arabs living in poverty, food kitchens, running kindergartens etc. has been outlawed in a blatant example of Israel’s prevailing Islamaphobia.
It has never been engaged in ‘terrorist’ activity, but has organised
demonstrations and campaigns against Zionist attacks on the Gold Dome mosque in
Jerusalem. But the Northern Islamic
League is Arab not Jewish therefore it is, according to Zionist logic right to
ban it whereas an organisation whose leader advocates the burning of Churches
and Mosques is allowed to operate freely.

a Palestinian had made these remarks, about how burning down synagogues was
desirable, his feet would not have touched the floor. He would have been put in detention and would
be facing a minimum of three years in prison or administrative detention. However Gopstein is Jewish not Arab, so he
has not been arrested, despite the conviction of 2 of his supporters for arson
at the mixed Jewish school ‘Hand in Hand’
in Jerusalem. Because they were Jewish they
got 2 and 2½ years in prison (Arabs would have got at least 10 years inside
because they would have been classed as ‘terrorists’).

decision not to arrest Gopstein is however understandable from a Zionist perspective. When Rabbis Yitzhak Shapira and Yosef Elitzur wrote
a book ‘Torat HaMelech’ which was a
guide book on how, in accordance with Jewish law, one might kill Gentiles (non-Jews)
legally, there were also calls for their arrest. Indeed they were, briefly arrested, but no
charges were ever brought. Why? Because in Israel although racism is an
offence, there is an exclusion clause.
Racism and incitement to racial hatred on religious grounds is not an
offence. This exclusion clause was absolutely
necessary because Israel is a Jewish state which, by definition, discriminates
against non-Jews on religious national grounds.
Hence why the neo-Nazi Jewish MK, Rabbi Meir Kahane (who was later
debarred from running for the Knesset) voted for the law!

to Daniel Estrin, Torat HaMelech states,
quite correctly from my own knowledge of the Talmud and Jewish law that
prohibition ‘Thou Shalt Not Murder’ applies only “to a Jew who kills a
Jew,” write Rabbis Yitzhak Shapira and Yosef Elitzur of the West Bank
settlement of Yitzhar. Non-Jews are “uncompassionate
by nature” and attacks on them “curb their evil inclination,” while babies and children of
Israel’s enemies may be killed since “it
is clear that they will grow to harm us.”

But there are some fools and idiots who nonetheless claim that Zionism is not racist. Indeed they go further and claim, like Graham Cox, the Evangelical Christian and Tory candidate in Hove at the General Election, that Israel is
“a beacon of freedom in the Middle East and the
only place where every lifestyle and belief system – from gays
to Christians and Muslims and other faiths; in fact, all social and
religious minorities – are protected,”
Indeed Cox went on to say, at a General
Election meeting hosted by the far-right Sussex Friends of Israel that:
that Israel is the only country in the region where number of Christians
is rising and their lives are thriving.”
Latin Patriarchate in Jerusalem
Vandals have destroyed dozens of crosses at a Christian cemetery west of
Jerusalem, the Latin Patriarchate in the city said Saturday, urging Israeli
authorities to bring the culprits to justice.
in recent years there have been a spate of hate crimes known as “price tag”
attacks targeting churches and Christian cemeteries, with the perpetrators
believed to be Jewish extremists.
Israeli-Palestinian peace talks last year, intend to exact a price for Israeli
government policies seen as detrimental to the settlement enterprise. Such
attacks have long been a problem in the West Bank. But suspected Jewish
extremists increasingly are targeting Israeli Arab citizens, mosques and
churches within the country’s borders.
