Rabbi calls for total end of Israel


A rabbi says that the Jewish holy book of Torah forbids the formation of an Israeli state, expressing optimism for a total and peaceful dismantlement of the Israeli regime.

In a Press TV interview, Rabbi Yisroel Dovid Weiss of the Neturei Karta International said, “To us as Jews, it is even a greater Nakba,” since Zionism and the creation of Israel amounts to the transformation of Judaism into a base materialism.

Weiss described Zionism as a political ideology rooted in blasphemy, as it promotes the belief that “God doesn’t protect us; we have to have our own protection.”

“God had put us under three oaths during King Solomon that we are never to rebel against any nation where we are law citizens and residing in, we should not go back in mass to the Holy Land, and we should not make any attempt to end exile. So therefore, the concept of a Jewish sovereignty is forbidden in Judaism,” said Weiss.

Weiss presented documents suggesting that prior to the formation of an Israeli state, the chief rabbi of Palestine’s Jewish community had voiced opposition to the formation of such a state in his communications with United Nations officials back in 1947.

However, the Zionist regime went on to establish a state in the name of Judaism, giving it a Jewish name to claim it is “some Godly issue”.

The rabbi noted that Jews in Palestine and around the world are not happy with the regime as “they banished them (Palestinians) from their homes,” and all the atrocities and sufferings they have given the Palestinians over the past 60 years.

He further slammed the Zionist regime for creating an enemy out of the Palestinian victims rather than showing gratitude for the hundreds of years that Arab people werved as “our gracious hosts in [a] safe haven”.

“Every day, we witness a new tragedy. We mourn as it’s not only a Nakba, but a double Nakba or a triple Nakba and the atrocities are done in our name,” Weiss said.

“So we want a speedy, total and peaceful dismantlement of the state with no impediment to peace,” he concluded.

pointing to the peaceful coexistence of “very religious” Christians, Muslims, and Jews for hundreds of years prior to the establishment of puported global peace promoters such as the United Nations or human rights organizations, Weiss expressed regret that nevertheless, the Zionist regime continues with its [illegitimate] efforts to gain global legitimacy by “villainizing” the Palestinians through the use of such deceptive labels as “anti-semetism”.

Demonstrators in many countries have been commemorating the 63rd anniversary of Nakba or Catastrophe Day, calling for an end to decades of Palestinian occupation by the Israeli regime.
