At this time our final speaker is going to
be Rabbi Weiss and he is going to come forward and give us
his words.
Rabbi Weiss:
Thank you. I appreciate it.
With God’s help I pray to God to put the words of truth
in my mouth that I should be able to convey His message to
the media that the word can get out to the world, the true
words of Judaism, the true representation of Judaism of the
Jewish people.
As people know, Judaism is a religion; it is not a political
movement. Judaism is the belief in God and Judaism is the
following of the Torah, without straying from the words of
the Torah one iota. We are the followers of Judaism. We are
following the tradition and the laws of the Torah for thousands
of years and we refuse to stray from what God has given us;
From God’s holy word; we refuse to stray from the Torah;
When God sent the Jewish nation into exile 2000 years ago
we accepted this lovingly from God and when God told us that
we are forbidden to try to return and make our own entity,
to form our own state, we accepted God’s decree and
we are waiting patiently for the day when ultimately God Himself
without any human intervention will end this exilic period
and all of the nations of world together will go up and serve
God in harmony and peace. This is what we are waiting for
and until that day we refuse to go along with this movement
called Zionism. We refuse to go along with people who are
rebelling against God, people who are misrepresenting God
and his Torah.
Zionism, formed 100 years ago is a movement of heretics,
people who refuse to accept God’s word, who refuse to
put God in the equation of what happens on this world. They
said we were sent out of Israel because of our physical weakness.
This is false. This is rebellion against God. They said they
want to form a state and they will be able to protect themselves
from God’s wrath. This is false. We believe that nobody
can punish a human being, nobody can do any harm to a fellow
human being and nobody can do any good to a fellow human being
if it is not the will of God. We cannot return and make our
own state if God doesn’t want it from us. We cannot
protect ourselves if God, god forbid, wants us to be punished.
To claim that we were sent out of the land of Israel because
of our physical inequity, because of our physical weakness,
and the solution is to make your own military, to make your
own state is blasphemous. That is exactly what Zionism is.
The dictionary could put the translation of the word Zionism
as “blasphemy”. That is the only true translation
of the word “Zionism” and the “state of
Israel.” And everything that emanates from this blasphemous
movement, for instance, the subjugation and oppression of
a nation, the subjugation and oppression of the Palestinian
people, is against God…totally against God…totally
against the teachings of the Torah and we stand in diametric
opposition to this. We refuse to let those Zionists represent
us. We refuse to accept that Sharon can come to the White
House and claim to be speaking in the name of the Jewish people.
That is treachery. That is false. He does not speak in the
name of the Jewish people. Let the world know that Sharon
is conning you. That Sharon is fooling you. He does not represent
the words of the Torah. He waves the Bible to legitimize the
state of Israel and that is false! Look in the Torah, look
in the Talmud, and look at the documents of the rabbinical
authorities when Zionism was formed. At the time of its inception
all rabbinical authorities were in opposition.
Our hearts pain, our hearts suffer when we see what is being
done to the Palestinian people, we are humiliated by what
is being done by Zionists. Why must it be done in the name
of Judaism? Why, when we have been living together with the
Palestinian people and with the arab people for hundreds of
years must we be blamed for the actions of Zionists? That’s
wrong! So we are here to let the world know: Jewish people
are required by God, when he sent us into exile, to be loyal
citizens in every country where we reside. We Jews accepted
this from God. When we reside in Canada we are loyal Canadian
citizens. When we reside in Iran, we are Iranian citizens
and we are loyal to Iran. When we are residing in the United
State of America, the Jewish Nation is loyal United States
citizens. This what God requires of us as a nation and we
accept it lovingly. And therefore we are asking President
Bush and we are asking the people of the United States of
America, let them know that it is not having compassion for
the Jewish people by supporting the state of Israel, that’s
wrong. It’s against God, it’s against the Torah,
and it’s against what the Jewish people need and what
the Jewish people want. Look in the Torah, study a little
bit, see what it says in the Talmud, see what the rabbinical
authorities said. The Jewish people are forbidden to have
a state. And not only is it against the Torah it is called
“anti-Semitism”. Zionism and the state of Israel
is the greatest factory of Anti-Semitism since the world was
created. Zionism has created anti-Semitism in Europe. Today
we see that it just keeps on growing and growing. Anti-Semitism
grows and nobody wants to admit it’s clearly because
of Zionism. And therefore when the American good-hearted people
want to have compassion on the Jews, they say, “they’ve
suffered by Hitler, let them have a state”, they are
misguided, they are mislead by the powerful propaganda of
Zionism and the state of Israel, by the rich PR system of
the Zionists. You are not helping the Jews. You are only causing
more anti-Semitism.
Please, we plead with President Bush, “listen to the
voice of True Judaism. You want to help Judaism, you want
to help world peace, you want to help the Palestinian people,
let us come to what the proper solution is: the dismantlement
of the state of Israel, the peaceful speedy dismantlement,
the transformation of the state of Israel to a Palestinian
state with representation of the indigenous people, self rule
of the Palestinian people over the whole entire Holy Land.
Then we can once again live in peace and harmony as we have
been doing for hundreds of years. God willing, let’s
all pray for this. That God should help for the speedy and
peaceful dismantlement of the state of Israel so we can once
again live in brotherhood and serve the one God in peace and
harmony. Amen.
