Monsey, New York:
Rabbi Yisroel Dovid Weiss, spokesman for Neturei Karta
International (Jews United Against Zionism), announced today
that the group would be joining the 33rd annual March for
Life on Monday January 23nd which will take place in Washington
DC at 11 noon.
The Rabbi added, “It is extremely important that Jews show their support for this most noble cause. The destruction of hundreds of thousands of babies yearly under the cover of 'freedom of choice' is a black mark which all Americans must carry.”
“G-D in His teachings forbids abortions. It is considered the murder of a human life”.
“Abortion is yet another awful manifestation of the grave spiritual crisis in which America and the entire Western World now find themselves. When peoples turn their back on the Creator, the most ghastly of practices very often ensue.”
“Countless times throughout the Torah, we are admonished that if we stray from God’s teachings, there will be severe consequences, God forbid. Our Rabbis state that if God forbid, calamity strikes, we are obliged to study our deeds and actions in order to correct them where necessary, for these tragedies are a reminder from God to repent.”
“In these troubling times that have unfortunately befallen
us, Following the catastrophes of the tsunami,
Katrina and the horrific attack to the
World Trade Center and its aftermath, the constant
threat of terrorism, the ensuing war, the recession
etc., we are most certainly obligated to study our deeds
and our lifestyles, individually and as a nation.”
“‘Abortion rights’ is definitely one of the grave issues
to be addressed and corrected immediately. We beseech
our representatives and fellow Americans to rethink
their stance on this issue”.
“By coming here today, we wish to let the world know that
this 'right to life' cause is very dear to all
believing Jews. Unfortunately some Jews, very estranged from
their faith, have been in the forefront of movements which
have led to the current moral crisis. We are here to make
amends for their deeds.”
"The Torah commands us to sanctify the Creator's Great Name
in public. This is why we have come. We understand
that the battle will be a difficult one. Yet, with Divine
assistance all things are possible. In the meantime the task
of all good men is to protest and pray."
