Jews can kill Gentiles who threaten Israel

Jews can kill Gentiles who threaten Israel
Book by Rabbi Yitzhak Shapiro of Yitzhar permits even the murder of babies and children who pose threat.

Just weeks after the arrest of alleged Jewish terrorist, Yaakov Teitel, a West Bank rabbi on Monday released a book giving Jews permission to kill Gentiles who threaten Israel.
 
Rabbi Yitzhak Shapiro, who heads the Od Yosef Chai Yeshiva in the Yitzhar settlement, wrote in his book "The King's Torah" that even babies and children can be killed if they pose a threat to the nation.
 
Shapiro based the majority of his teachings on passages quoted from the Bible, to which he adds his opinions and beliefs.
 
"It is permissable to kill the Righteous among Nations even if they are not responsible for the threatening situation," he wrote, adding: "If we kill a Gentile who has sinned or has violated one of the seven commandments - because we care about the commandments - there is nothing wrong with the murder."
 
Several prominent rabbis, including Rabbi Yithak Ginzburg and Rabbi Yaakov Yosef, have recommended the book to their students and followers.

You are invited, details below

No American has to live in anxieties, discomfort or fear of the other. The purpose of this conference is to remove such myths in an open forum and restore the cohesiveness of our society and work towards building a safe and secure America.

Since our independence in 1776, we have been tested time and again by various political, economic and religious forces to divide us, however, at the end we have come out strong as one nation. The Civil War, the Great Depression, the World War, Pearl Harbor, Women’s rights, Abortion, the Vietnam War, Civil Rights, Budget Deficits, Unemployment, 9/11, the Iraq and Afghanistan War have all been difficult, but we will make it through and sanity will prevail.

The controversy over the Muslim Community Center in New York has unraveled the difficulties Catholics, Jews, Mormons, Wicca and others have endured.

We have come a long way to embrace and accept the otherness of other. However, this year has given rise to yet another temptation; to blame Islam, calling it an evil, evil religion and calling its prophet a false prophet. No American has to live in fear of the other, nor live in anxieties or discomfort.

Religion has been “abused” and “misused” to someone’s advantage, as Americans, are we going to let that happen? No, we can pull ourselves together and not fall for the temptations to divide ourselves.

If we make an effort, goodness will come to our rescue. Mike Ghouse adds, “As members of diverse family of faiths, we seek to demystify the myths, malice and falsification of our respective faiths. It is time for all of us to gather and understand the Qur’aan, the holy book of Muslims, which has been the subject of attack by a few among us. Indeed, a conference is a positive response to negative sermons delivered from a few pulpits of America this year.”

The Conference puts the Quraan in the hands of panelists made up of Pastors, Rabbis, Pundits, Shamans, Clergy, lay persons, elected officers and the public. The uniqueness of the event is highlighted by facing the “terrifying passages” of Quraan. For the first time in history, the actual verses from Quraan will be read directly and explained by panelists made up of Pastors, Rabbis, Pundits, Shamans, Clergy, lay persons and elected officials who have a deep interest in bringing Americans together on common grounds. The Muslim scholars either affirm their reading or share the additional information right from the very Quraan for further understanding.
It is time now to replace the ill-will with goodwill; no American has to live in anxieties, discomfort or fear of the other. The purpose of this conference is to remove such myths in an open forum in the public and restore the cohesiveness of our society and work towards building a safe and secure America.

Steven Shamrock sells hate

As I was reading this email, I could not believe the falsifications and lies and instinctively I said, this man is making a living frightening the crap out of a few Jews and Christians... sure enough at the end there was an ask for money. I hope people wake up and support those who work for peace, which is good for all at the end. Aggravating the conflicts, entrenching hate will take you far far away from peace, but will fill the pockets of hate sellers.

Subject: The Words of Mohammad Clear! * Making a Good Living of "Balance of Power" * Resolution 194 and Fake Refugee Problem

The Words of Allah's Apostle Clear!

by Gaye, a subscriber of this editorial.

Those who say that Israel (Jews) should get out of Palestine because it is not Jewish land, you are nuts! It was the Muslims who took the land from the Jewish people in the first place and there were many other nations that also forced Jews to leave their land before them.

The Qur'an shows very clearly the pride taken by Mohammad and his merry men at killing Jewish men and chasing the Jews from their land. They were pirates on land! It is very clear from the verses of the Qur'an:

Qur'an 33:26 - "Allah made the Jews leave their homes by terrorizing them so that you killed some and made many captive. And He made you inherit their lands, their homes, and their wealth. He gave you a country you had not traversed before." - This land had not belonged to Muslims!

Qur'an 59:2 - "It was Allah who drove the People of the Book (Jews) from their homes and into exile. They refused to believe and imagined that their strongholds would protect them against Allah..."

Islam also has warned all infidels:

Bukhari: V5B59N516 - "When Allah's Apostle fought or raided people we raised our voices saying, 'Allahu-Akbar! Allahu-Akbar! None has the right to be worshipped but Allah.'"

Mohammad went on 23 RAIDS himself and ordered over 70 others to rid the world of evil. Hence, his modern followers are willing to fulfill their esteemed leader's commands. Now they have suicide bombers, rockets and are attempting to build a nuclear bomb. They feel that time is right to implement this prophecy:


Qur'an 8:59 - "The infidels should not think that they can escape. Prepare against them whatever arms and weaponry you can muster so that you may terrorize them. They are your enemy and Allah's enemy."


Notice the words: that infidels are "Allah's enemy". Allah also said that Muslims were to kill all their enemies. This of course means endless war against all non-Muslims.

When people start saying that Jews should leave Israel, just ask them when they are going to leave America, Canada, Australia, New Zealand or any other country where people have taken over. But Jews didn't! (We took some of our land back!)

I do not think we can convince people, who do not believe in the Torah or the Bible, that G-d promised the land to the Jews. They do not have the knowledge of God and his promises, but it is a different matter when we are dealing with the idiots and hypocrites who claim that they are acting in the name of G-d, acknowledge that Jews are indeed the "People of the Book" but simultaneously have been brazen and fierce try to destroy them. Self-protection is the only reason for little Israel to fight the billions of Muslims!

Where are the Screaming "Humanitarians"? Hamas used phosphorus, which is banned for use against civilians, in the mortars aimed at the 12,000 civilians of the Gaza-border region on Wednesday. (Many of the so-called Humanitarians are just ugly Jew-haters!)

Food for Thought. by Steven Shamrak

The time has come to free Gaza completely from Muslim occupation and let the Jew-hating and terror-supporting population of Gaza leave Jewish land. The pretence of a people called Palestinians, an entity invented by Arabs in late 1960's to fight against the existence of the Jewish state, must be abandoned!

Barbaric Islamic Justice:

1) A Saudi Arabian court has ruled that a convicted man's spinal cord should be severed so he is paralysed. This is part of the kingdom's Islamic-law-oriented retribution for similar injuries he is said to have inflicted upon another man in a fight.

2) A Saudi court has convicted four women and 11 men for mingling at a party and sentenced them to flogging and prison terms.

Making a Good Living, Maintaining "Balance of Power"

1) The Obama administration is planning to sell up to $60 billion worth of advanced aircraft to Saudi Arabia, the largest-ever foreign arms sale. The package would include 84 new Boeing F-15 fighter jets and upgrades of another 70. It would also include three types of helicopters: 72 Black Hawk helicopters, 70 Apaches, and 36 Little Birds. State department spokesman Philip J Crowley stresses that Washington's priority is stability in the Middle East.

2) The US is slated to sell Israel massive military fuel stocks worth $2 bn.

3) Israel is expected to purchase 20 of F-35 warplanes for a total cost of $2.7 billion. The deal will be the most expensive in the IDF's history. (By raising the level of 'balance', the US arm dealers yield bigger profits! Saudi citizens were the perpetrators of 9/11 attacks - who is the evil kingdom planning to attack next?)

How Long Must We Wait? Iran has crossed the threshold for being able to arm ballistic missiles with nuclear warheads. This news sent the NATO Secretary running to Washington, but stirred no reaction from Israel - even though Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is preparing to visit Beirut to sign up Lebanese army for Tehran's forward front to defend its nuclear facilities and tie Israel's hands.

Schizo Talks. On Wednesday the United States said Israeli and Palestinian leaders moved toward resolving their differences over settlements but the Palestinians kept up the threat to walk out of the new peace talks. (Wishful thinking and political pretence will never work. There is a need for the will of all parties concerned to achieve peace - the 'Palestinians' have shown none!)

Destruction of Israel is the Aim. Gaza filmmakers Mohammed al-Amrity and Ayman Hijazi have released a film, "The Great Liberation", that portrays in detail the takeover of Israel by Arab Muslims and the destruction of vital Israeli and Jewish institutions. Arabs are depicted blowing up the Hurva synagogue in Jerusalem. Other scenes show Arabs destroying the Bank of Israel and blowing up the Supreme Court. (Incitement is forbidden by previous useless agreements between the PA and Israel. Nobody cares when agreements with Jews are violated!)

PA in Line with Tradition of Islamic Intolerance. Members of a pacifist Muslim sect say the PA is persecuting them, especially in the past year, including confiscation of property and physical violence. Head of the Ahmadis in Israel, Muhammad Sharif, told the Makor Rishon newspaper, "We believe in a tolerant, friendly and rational Islam." The Ahmadi sect was founded in 1889 in India and now numbers in the tens of millions of followers, mostly living outside the Arab world.

Hypocrisy in Action:

150 Irish artists pledge to boycott Israel - 9/11 attacks were perpetrated by 19 Islamic terrorists, 15 of them from Saudi Arabia. Why has nobody called for a boycott of Saudi Arabia, a well-known sponsor of international terror?

Legalised Occupation and Genocide are Celebrated. Mexico looked beyond its drug war to throw a 200th birthday bash celebrating its self-proclaimed proud history, whimsical culture and resilience embodied in the traditional independence cry: "Viva Mexico!" (Mexico was created on the land and blood of many native Indian tribes. Just imagine what the world 'opinion' would be now if Jews had accepted offers to create a Jewish state in Tasmania or Uganda? We can't even live in peace on our own land!)

Freedom of Speech and Expression Under Threat. A cartoonist, Molly Norris, has disappeared from public view because she is on an Islamic cleric's hit list for declaring "Everybody Draw Mohammed Day" last spring. She is changing her name and essentially wiping out her identity on the advice of the FBI.

UN Resolution 194 and Fake Refugee Problem.

Eli E. Hertz

Arab leaders falsely point to UN Resolution 194 as proof that Arab refugees have a "Right to return".

Resolution 194, adopted by the UN General Assembly on December 11, 1948, addressed a host of issues, but only one paragraph out of 15 dealt with refugees created by the conflict. Resolution 194 attempted to create the tools required to reach a truce in the region. It established a conciliation commission with representatives from the United States, France and Turkey to replace the UN mediator. The commission was charged with achieving "a final settlement of all questions between... governments and authorities concerned." The Resolution's "refugee clause" was not a standalone item, as the Arabs would have us think, nor does it pertain specifically to Palestinian Arab refugees.

Of the 15 paragraphs, the first six sections addressed ways to achieve a truce. The next four paragraphs addressed the ways that Jerusalem and surrounding villages and towns should be demilitarised, and how an international zone or jurisdiction would be created in and around Jerusalem. The resolution also called on all parties to protect and allow free access to holy places, including religious buildings.

One paragraph has drawn the most attention: Paragraph 11, which alone addressed the issue of refugees and compensation for those whose property was lost or damaged. Contrary to Arab claims, it did not guarantee a Right of Return and certainly did not guarantee an unconditional Right of Return - that is the right of Palestinian Arab refugees to return to Israel. Nor did it specifically mention Arab refugees, thereby indicating that the resolution was aimed at all refugees, both Jewish an d Arab . Instead, Resolution 194 recommended that refugees be allowed to return to their homeland if they met two important conditions:

1. That they be willing to live in peace with their neighbours

2. That the return takes place "at the earliest practicable date"

The resolution also recommended that for those who did not wish to return, "Compensation should be paid for the property... and for loss of or damage to property" by the "governments or authorities responsible."

Although Arab leaders point to Resolution 194 as proof that Arab refugees have a right to return or be compensated, it is important to note that the Arab States: Egypt, Iraq, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Syria, and Yemen voted against Resolution 194. Israel is not even mentioned in the resolution. The fact that plural wording also is used - "governments or authorities" - suggests that, contrary to Arab claims, the burden of compensation does not fall solely upon one side of the conflict. Because seven Arab armies invaded I srael, Israel was not responsible for creating the refugee problem. When hundreds of thousands Jews, under threat of death, attack and other forms of persecution were forced to flee Arab communities, the State of Israel absorbed the overwhelming majority of them into the then-fledgling nation.
