You Gotta Hear This...

Manchester - A British rabbi who angered fellow Jews by speaking at a "Holocaust denial" conference in Iran now says millions did die in gas chambers but may have deserved it. Ahron Cohen, an Orthodox Jew from Greater Manchester and a leading member of the Neturei Karta movement, sparked new controversy on his return from Tehran by suggesting that God would have saved the victims of the Nazis if they had deserved to live. Cohen, whose house in Salford was pelted with 1,000 eggs last year because of his extremist views, said "There is no question that there was a Holocaust and gas chambers. There are too many eyewitnesses. "However, our approach is that when one suffers, the one who perpetrates the suffering is obviously guilty but he will never succeed if the victim did not deserve it in one way or another. Cohen's trip to Tehran — along with four American rabbis from the same sect — was paid for by the Iranian foreign ministry, which organised the conference entitled The Holocaust: A Global Vision. They were warmly greeted by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, the Iranian president, and had two meetings with him. Cohen said on his return: "President Ahmadinejad is not a man of war. He is a man of peace. I have received criticism for meeting him and attending the conference, but Jewish people are adopting an attitude of criticism from an emotional point of view, not a logical or sensible one. Rabbi Yehuda Brodie, registrar of the Jewish Ecclesiastical Court for Greater Manchester, said regarding Rabbi Cohen. "He represents an insignificant minority. His involvement is a stab in the heart of the Jewish community and of all decent law-abiding people."

BUSTED

Neturei Karta bastards....

Proof of them taking cash from Yasser Arafat..... They took money to publicly hate Israel.

They should be prosecuted for treason.

Hey Kofi... Don't let the door hit you in the @$$ on the way out.

Finally... Kofi Annan completes his 10 year term as UN Secretary-General.

What sort of legacy does he leave?

He leaves a trail of anti-Israel bias that has putrefied UN rhetoric for a decade.

I quote tremendous article by Hillel Fendel (Arutz 7, 12/13/06).

http://www.israelnationalnews.com/news.php3?id=117353

Annan said that Israelis are unlikely to succeed in getting the Muslim-Arab world to change its attitude towards them unless "they themselves clearly grasp and acknowledge the fundamental Palestinian grievance - namely, that the establishment of the State of Israel involved the dispossession of hundreds of thousands of Palestinian families, turning them into refugees, and was followed 19 years later by a military occupation that brought hundreds of thousands more Palestinian Arabs under Israeli rule... Yet thousands of Israelis still live in territories occupied in 1967 - and more than 1,000 more are added every month. As Palestinians watch this activity, they also see a barrier being built through their land in contravention of the advisory opinion of the International Court of Justice, as well as more than 500 checkpoints to control their movement, and the heavy presence of the Israeli Defense Forces."

Annan's remarks overlook several factors, including:
* Tens of thousands of Arabs moved into what became Israel in the years just before the establishment of Israel
* The 550,000 Arab refugees of 1948 were caused largely by the Arab nations encouraging them to flee, and then refusing to provide them with permanent housing solutions
* Arab League Secretary-General Habib Issa quoted his predecessor Azzam Pasha as "assur[ing] Arabs [in 1948] that the occupation of Palestine, including Tel Aviv, would be as simple as a military promenade... Brotherly advice was given to the Arabs of Palestine to leave their land, homes and property, and to stay temporarily in neighboring fraternal states." (Al-Hoda Lebanese daily, New York, June 8, 1951).
* King Hussein of Jordan said in 1960: "Since 1948, the Arab leaders have approached the Palestinian problem in an irresponsible manner... They have used the Palestinian people for selfish political purposes." Former Syrian Prime Minister Khaled Al-Azm admitted in 1972: "Since 1948, it is we who demanded the return of the refugees... while it is we who made them leave... We brought disaster upon Arab refugees... Then we exploited them in executing crimes of murder, arson, and throwing bombs upon... men, women and children -- all this in the service of political purposes..." (Joan Peters, From Time Immemorial, pages 23, 16)
* Israel welcomed hundreds of thousands of Jewish refugees from Arab countries in the years following its creation
* The United Nations has not taken a strong stand against current threats to annihilate Israel - one of the very reasons Israel was created in the first place

Neturei Karta... I hate those guys

http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3338811,00.html

So they're having a holocaust symposium in Iran... What conclusion do you think they'll come up with?

In the middle of this anti-semetic may lay are a dozen or so "ultra-orthodox" looking men with anti-Israel badges on.

Neturei Karta.

They should string those jerks up. They embrace the worst anti-semites of our time with smiles on their faces. They use the memory of six million dead to further their idiotic cause. I also blame those groups that harbor them... groups inside Satmar. They should be ostracised, not hidden.

You see folks, the Jew-hating arabs don't care if you're against the establishment of Israel. Didn't they blow up a synagogue in Morocco about a year ago? What did those Jews ever do to the arabs? 9/11 for that matter. Did those people take land away from the arabs?

They hate us because we are Jews. That is the only reason. Neturei Karta plays into their game of hate and by doing so puts the rest of world Jewry at risk.

I wish the Neturei Karta loved Jews as much as they hate Israel.

Listen to Reb Amnon Yitzchak debate the issue with a member of this dangerous group.

Why so much Jewish infighting?

I think we as Jews need to stick together. Religious or irreligious, Chassid or Litvak, Ashkenazi or Sephardi... It shouldn't matter.

So then, why do the Satmar hate Jews that love Israel?
Why did yeshiva students plant a pipe bomb in the new Rosh HaYeshiva of Ponevich's home?

I think this could be an interesting debate. I'm sure Reb Elyashiv and Reb Ovadia learn the same Torah as Reb Yoel and Reb Zalman (the true Satmerer Rebbe). In fact, Reb Yoel was saved from the nazis by Zionists that bribed the border guards allowing the train into Switzerland (I know, the zionists didn't pay enough.... maybe that's why he hated them??). I won't censure the blog. I just want to understand both sides.

POST #1

Welcome to Jews For Israel !!!

This is my first blogging attempt. I intend to post interesting articles and links relating to Israel and her position in the world. I will offer my thoughts on those items and encourage you all to to the same.

My basic position is Israel for Jews, forever and ever, Amen.The notion of land for peace is simple nonsense. The muslim arab world wants nothing less than the drowning of every Jew in the Med. They admit it themselves ( http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1164881848784&pagename=JPost%2FJPArticle%2FShowFull). That being said, why does the current Israeli government have such a need to placate the world?

Giving Gaza most certainly didn't work...
Giving Yesha won't work...
Giving the Golan won't work...

Time for the Jews of the world to remember that if you ever forget you are Jewish, some muslim murdering terrorist will remind you.
