The People of Israel oppose the so-called
"State of Israel" for four reasons:
FIRST -- The so-called "State of Israel" is diametrically
opposed and completely contradictory to the true essence and foundation
of the People of Israel, as is explained above. The only
time that the People of Israel were permitted to have a state
was two thousand years ago when the glory of the creator was upon
us, and likewise in the future when the glory of the creator will
once more be revealed, and the whole world will serve Him, then
He Himself (without any human effort or force of arms) will grant
us a kingdom founded on Divine Service. However, a worldly state,
like those possessed by other peoples, is contradictory to the
true essence of the People of Israel. Whoever calls this the salvation
of Israel shows that he denies the essence of the People of Israel,
and substitutes another nature, a worldly materialistic nature,
and therefore sets before them, a worldly materialistic "salvation,"
and the means of achieving this "salvation" is also
worldly and materialistic i.e. to organize a land and army. However,
the true salvation of the People of Israel is to draw close to
the Creator. This is not done by organization and force of
arms. Rather it is done by occupation to Torah and good deeds.
SECOND -- Because of all of this
and other reasons the Torah forbids us to end the exile and establish
a state and army until the Holy One, blessed He, in His Glory
and Essence will redeem us. This is forbidden even if the state is
conducted according to the law of the Torah because arising from
the exile itself is forbidden, and we are required to remain under
the rule of the nations of the world, as is explained in the book
VAYOEL MOSHE. If we transgress this injunction, He will bring upon
us (may we be spared) terrible punishment.
THIRD -- Aside from arising from
exile, all the deeds of the Zionists are diametrically opposed
to the Faith and the Torah. Because the foundation of the Faith
and Torah of Israel is that the Torah was revealed from heaven,
and there is reward for those who obey it and punishment for those
who transgress it. The entire People of Israel is required to
obey the Torah, and whoever doesn't want to, ceases to be part
of the congregation of Israel.
FOURTH -- Aside from the fact that
they themselves do not obey the Torah they do everything they
can to prevent anyone they get under their power from fulfilling
the commands of the Torah, the claims to freedom of religion are
lies. They fight with all of their strength to destroy the Faith
of Israel.
The Zionists claim that they are the saviors
of Israel, but this is refuted by twelve things:
FIRST -- If one contemplates the
two thousand years of our exile, take any hundred years even the
hardest, one will not find as much suffering, bloodshed, and catastrophes
for the People of Israel in the period of the Zionists, and
it is known that most of the suffering of this century was caused
by the Zionists, as our Rabbis warned us would be the case.
SECOND -- It is openly stated in books written
by the founders of Zionism that the means by which they planned
to establish a state was by instigating anti-Semitism, and undermining
the security of the Jews in all the lands of the world, until
they would be forced to flee to their state. And thus they did
- They intentionally infuriated the German people and fanned the
flames of Nazi hatred, and they helped the Nazis, with trickery
and deceit, to take whole Jewish communities off to the concentration
camps, and the Zionists themselves admit this. (See the books
Perfidy, Min Hameitzor, etc.). The Zionists continue to practice
this strategy today. They incite anti-Semitism and then they present
themselves as the "saviors". Here are two replies given
by Leaders of the Zionists during World War II, when they were
asked for money to help ransom Jews from the Nazis. Greenbaum
said "One cow in Palestine is worth more than all the Jews
in Poland." (G-d forbid).
Weitzman said, "The most important part of the Jewish people is
already in the land (of Israel) and those who are left, are unimportant"
(May we be spared).
THIRD -- We see that most of world Jewry lives
in security and under good physical conditions, and have no desire
to go live in the Zionist State. Whereas many people have left
the Zionist State to live under better conditions in other lands.
FOURTH -- The Zionists make a great deal of propaganda
to induce people to immigrate to their state. If their state is
so beneficial why do they have to make so much propaganda.
FIFTH -- Because nobody wants the Zionists to
"save" them. The only way they can get immigrants is
by promising poor people material benefits, and even then very
few people respond.
SIXTH -- The Zionist State is always threatened
by the dangers of war. Whereas the rest of world Jewry live in
peace and security, (Except in a few places where the Zionists
have undermined their security and fanned the flames of hatred)
SEVENTH -- The Zionist State could not continue
to exist without economic support from Jews living outside of
the Zionist State.
EIGHTH -- The Zionist State is on the verge of
economic collapse, and their money is nearly worthless.
NINTH -- The Zionist State persecute all Jews
who are loyal to their Faith.
TENTH -- They start wars that endanger the Jewish
People, for the sake of their own political interests.
ELEVENTH - According to the Torah the path of
safety is following ways of peace not starting fights with other
nations, as the Zionists do.
TWELFTH -- Even if the Zionists could and would
provide physical security it would be at the expense of our Faith
and Our Torah the true People of Israel prefer death rather
than life at such a cost.
It is therefore clear that Zionism is not the savior of the people
of Israel. Rather it is their greatest misfortune.
Even though there are some observant Jews and rabbis,
who approve of the Zionists, this is not the opinion of the Torah.
The Zionists have enough control over the American
news media to make sure that only their side of the story is heard.
They make it look like all Jewry and their rabbis
are Zionists, but this is false propaganda.
The most important Rabbis and the majority of religious
Jewry are opposed to Zionism, but their voice is not heard because
of Zionist control of American news media.
The Zionists terrorize everyone who speaks out against
them.
That part of the Jewish masses which is fooled by
Zionist propaganda puts pressure on their Rabbis not to speak
out.
Between the terror and the pressure of the masses
most of the Rabbis are prevented from speaking out.
We bring three testimonies of the true opinion
of the Torah.
1) In the past two thousand years of the dangers
and sufferings of exile not once did any of the Sages of Israel
suggest that we make a state to protect ourselves. In every
generation we had thousands of Sages well versed in the Torah.
2) We have thousands of legal work of Torah law
that have been handed down to us by the Sages of all generations.
Not once do we see a word suggesting the establishment of a state.
What we do find is warnings against it.
3) The founders of Zionism were all atheists
who denied the Torah. All the Torah Sages of that time opposed
them and opposed Zionism, saying that Zionism would lead only
to destruction.
However the true People of Israel will never change
their nature or give up their Faith because of the strength the
Creator gives them.
Zionism is a foreign growth in the body of the Jewish People.
The end will be that it will rid itself of this foreign growth
and remain pure.
Zionism has overcome the Jewish people by force, fraud and terror, but none of this will help them because
the truth will always remain with the help of the Creator.
Zionism will not replace the Jewish People. The
Jewish People will remain strong in their faith and the Zionist
State will cease to exist.
It is therefore, our demand that the State that
calls itself ISRAEL, should cease to exist. Since this won't be
done, we demand that they cease to call themselves "Israel",
because their entire being is in complete opposition to the true
People of Israel. The true People of Israel deny them permission
to call themselves by that name. The Zionist leaders have no right
to set themselves up as the representatives and spokesmen of the
true People of ISRAEL.
Since we know they will not fulfill this demand
either we feel that at least we cry out the truth. The truth
will always remain the truth. By no means or force can the truth
be changed. Even if all the world would say that one and one is
three, the truth will remain that one and one is two.
Let the truth be declared. The use of the Name "ISRAEL"
by that State is a complete falsification. The People of Israel
have nothing to do with that State. Zionism and its State have
no share and no part in the true ISRAEL.
