    In the videos of the recent Islamo-Nazi protest in front of the Park East Synagogue, Neturei Karta (Neturei Kapos) protestors were seen joining with their Muslim brothers who were chanting threats of violent jihad against the Jews.

    This issue really has nothing to do with “Zionism” or “anti-Zionism”, Neturei Karta and their Muslim brothers are waging war against the Torah and against the Jews.

    A fake strawman of “anti-Zionism” can never justify morphing Eretz Yisrael into a fake “Palestine” and joining with genocidal Muslim jihadists.

    Those who demand “Free Palestine” should be considered non-Jews whose prophet is Mohamed and whose god is “Allah”.

    The time is long overdue that the religious Jewish community declare Neturei Kapos to be non-Jewish “rodfim” and enemies of the Jews.

    Neturei Kapos should be banished from all Torah observant synagogues and their busineses boycotted by decent Jews.

    These chevra are like the Baal Peor. The more tzoah you throw at them, the happier they are. They don’t have a “shittah” or a “hashkafah”. They have a personality disorder. They get their kicks out of being hated and despised by their fellow Yidden, combined with the constant media spotlight (including right here on this website.) I wouldn’t be surprised to discover that some of them may actually read (for their own sick enjoyment) the many articles here blasting them. They also aren’t “Kapos” who sell their Neshoma for material benefits like some of the Israelis who were recently arrested for actually aiding Iran. They enjoy every minute of the notoriety and fighting. It’s a real sickness called “antisocial personality disorder”. The best way to deal with these guys is to simply ignore them, because that takes away their main source of “feed”. Of course, they do things so outrageous that it’s almost impossible to ignore them… That’s the whole point… So Rabbosai – don’t feed the trolls…

    WrongJew:
    This issue has everything to do “Zionism” or “anti-Zionism”. NK is demonstrating (perhaps in an appropriate manner, but that’s besides the point) to the world that Judaism is not the same Zionism and, in fact, just the opposite: Zionism is diametrically opposed to Judaism.

    The point of that is to tell the gentiles that Jews should not be held accountable for anything the Zionists do.

    Let’s fix that line you wrote at the end:
    The time is long overdue that the religious Jewish community declare Zionists to be non-Jewish “rodfim” and enemies of the Jews…

    But what if it turns out they were right along. In the near future, the United States will probably elect a “Progressive” Democrat as President (the job has a history of alternating between parties) and the US will join the rest of the world in supporting the Palestinians. That means Israel will be unable to import anything of value, Jews in the Diaspora will be sent to prison for sending money to Israel, and Jewish institutions worldwide will be threatened with closure (and loss of tax exempt status) for supporting the outlaw state of Israel. And of course, anyone with a past history of working with the zionists will be seen as a war criminal. And guess which Jewish organizations will be able represent the Yishuv?

    The zionists have a short window to cut a deal with the Palestinians, perhaps only another three years. When the zionists see themselves in the corner with no escape, most of the frum community will realize the Hareidi rabbanim (and I am not referring to those whose primary relation with the Medinah was to trade political support for subsidies) were right all along, and that establishing a medinah at this time, by brute force and by conquering the goyim was maybe not the cleverest thing to do.

    akuperma – לא נביא אנכי ולא בן נביא אנכי. I am also no fan of Zionism or the State. However, I am not afraid of your proposed scenario, simply because the overwhelming consensus of Gedolei Yisroel, including those affiliated with the Satmar Hashkafah, DO NOT in any way approve of the antics of the (fake) NK. Therefore I am not worried about a scenario in which the (pseudo) NK will be “right” and “the representatives of the Yishuv”. Not because the State will protect us, but because the Ribbono Shel Olam will protect us. None of this has to do with the many wrong things that were done in the past by the Zionist movement, but with the Hashgacha and Shemirah of the Ribbono Shel Olam on millions of Jews in the present. Since no Gedolei Yisroel I know of, including the biggest (normative) Kanoyim, even remotely suggest leaving Eretz Yisroel (for those already here), I am actually more concerned about the future of Jews in America that in Eretz Yisroel. There is also לכל הדעות ולכל השיטות a heightened Hashgacha Pratis here of תמיד עיני השם אלקיך בה above and beyond חוץ לארץ, and nothing the ערב רב or the Arabs etc. do can change that.

    Please clarify for us:

    Do you believe in the 1st Rashi of the Torah? (IE Hashem gave the Land of Israel to the Jews in case you can’t read Rashi)

    Do you believe that a fictional land labeled as “Palestine” by Neturei Karta and their Islamo-Nazi allies belongs to a fictional nation called “Palestinians”?

    Do you believe that authentic religious Jews would ever join a protest of Islamo-Nazis threatening violence outside an Orthodox synagogue?

    But with all due respect, sir, and with no offense intended, you missed the point.

    The Neturei Karta [Neturei Kapos] are few in number, just like you said.

    BUT, they are constantly being given big publicity in: newspapers,
    magazines, television news, Youtube, and social media web sites.

    In the end, what matters is not how many members they have.

    What matters is the hundreds of millions of people who see them every year.

    No, the fictional land “Palestine” does not actually belong to the fictional “Palestinians”. Not that it matters.

    Normal Orthodox Jews would not participate in such activities, but it is very understandable why those Jews do so – as mentioned, because it shows the world that the wicked Zionists do not represent the Jews and therefore gentiles who have a problem with the Zionists should therefore not take that out on random Jews as has unfortunately happened every time the Zionists engage in one of their never-ending wars.

    RightJew:
    Your criticism of me is again wrong. What does NK’s letters have to do with anything, and what do Zionists vs. “Palestinians” have anything to do with Jews?

    The statement you quoted from them happens to be true: “It is clear from the Torah that not only Jerusalem does not belong to the Zionists; none of Palestine is theirs.” The Torah indeed does not give anything to them. It is simple halachic reality that Jews are forbidden to seek political independence and further forbidden from rebelling against the nations and also further forbidden from moving en masse to the Holy Land, all of which the Zionists flagrantly violated.

    As to their “alliance” and all the other nonsense, they are obviously not heretical and certainly not more so than the atheistic Zionists. Regardless, the point they are desperately trying to make is that Jews are not responsible for anything the Zionists do. So, perhaps either thank them for their service in that regard or just ignore them.

    Even if the Zionists violated the גזרה of גלות or מרידה באומות at some point (’48?, Lechi and Etzel?, צריך עיון when exactly that happened.), but once that already happened is it necessary or even possible to “turn back the clock”, even according to that Shittah? From what I understand the Divrei Yoel Davened for the safety of the Jews in Eretz Yisrael during all of the wars, and he and his Chassidim continued to build in Israel until today, so it doesn’t seem they hold of destroying the Yishuv once it exists.

    @shimon-katz

    I am perplexed by your phrasing of “Even if the Zionists violated the גזרה of גלות…”. Who in the Torah world claims that they NEVER did that. Sure, there is much pilpul about exactly how they broke -for example – the shulosh shevios, such as was it the mass aliyah or the wars to be over on the oath of “yali kachomah”. But, the kofrim made it easy for Torah Jews by literally breaking every single shita of every single shevia.

    Beyond the shulosh shevios, the same can be said about every aspect of gzairas hagulis. What’s the phrase, “when someone says who they are, believe them” or something like that?

    Moving forward, I don’t know what you might mean by “turn back the clock”. You must have something in mind, but it’s not clear from your words what you are talking about.

    The “yishiv”has existed in (Greater) Eretz Yisroel since Moshe Rebaini, long before the zionists. There have also been many governments, some good and some bad. Judaism rejects the false claim that this government is “Jewish” and that the sins it does somehow serves the (real) Jewish Nation. There speculate that a state that keeps all of Torah could indeed claim to be “Jewish” before moshiach, but – despite the foolish absurdity – that has nothing to do with the zionist creature called (maliciously) the “State of Israel”.

    The reality is that purpose of gulis is specifically so that we Jews will rely on and depend on Hashem for our salvation. Just like we don’t put ourselves in dangerous situations we don’t do sins (like going against the shulosh shevios) for some calculated fools “good”. Just like its not worth chsv”sh losing one Jewish life to keep the Jewish communities remain in Eretz Yisroel, it is also not worth doing avairos to keep the Jewish community to remain in EY.

    Thankfully, we do have G-d to rely on and thankfully the nisoyan He has given us is NOT choosing between breaking the gezeiras hagulis or giving up our lives (which is the explicit stance of the Maharal, amongst others). Instead, we are only beseeched to reject the heresy of Zionism while living in EY or getting on a plane to move somewhere else.

    By “turning back the clock” I mean that if, lets say too many Jews came to Eretz Yisroel which would be ״שלא יעלו כחומה״ (even though less than 7% of כלל ישראל were living in Eretz Yisroel in ’48), so then the תיקון would be for them to move away? If their arrival was somehow assur, so is it assur for them to stay once there?

    @shimon-katz
    I’ve never heard anyone come to the conclusion vis-a-vis the shevios that Yidden must now leave Eretz Yisroel.

    The closest I’ve heard is the Satmar Rebbe ztz”l would tell people generally not to go because there are sha’ailos every day of ‘yharog v’al taavor’ as one is forced to navigate under the boot of zionism. For example, one might be forced with the complexity of needing to chalila call the police or pay a parking ticket, and each time there are new questions in what the proper way to respond with the issues being severe on both sides of the shikel daas.

    But, he doesn’t say they must leave.

    So, if you are trying to present a position that kosher yidden must now leave Eretz Yisroel al pi the Torah, you would need to build out that claim with sources.

    I suppose anyone reading could just look up the sources and see. It is not hard to find the many gedolim who published and continue to publish seforim about the heresy of zionism and the death they have brought upon us. It is not hard to find the many mareh mekomos that accompany and are the centerpieces of these seforim.

    Unfortunately you live in a fantasy world of made up “shulchan aruchs” and “mishne torahs”, Rachmuneh Latzlun. Your lies quickly unravel if you bother to learn and do tshivah.

    What you will not find is a any Gadol challenging those mekoros and the unified mesorah we have on them.

    The best the zionist church has to offer is Menachem Kasher yimach shemo who was know for his rampant forgeries. And Shlomo Aviner who somehow argues with Vayoel Moshe without mentioning the answers explicitly to his “kashos” written in Vayoel Moshe itself. It all reads the same as their “Jews for J” counterparts. No integrity. No yiras shomayim. Only a thirst for jewish violence and death.

    SomeJewIKnow, I didn’t seriously suggest “turning back the clock” in real life. You and your friends seem to do so. The מציאות is that millions of Yidden live now in Eretz Yisroel, regardless of how that came to be, and any attempt to suddenly change the status quo would בלי שום ספק endanger many many Jewish lives ר״ל. The Divrei Yoel זצ״ל did not and certainly would not ever be in favor of risking the life of even one Yid. A total non-starter. In fact, one of his biggest טענות against the Zionists of his era, was how freely they risked Jewish lives without any guarantee that their plans would succeed. The Brisker Rov זצ״ל famously held this to be the biggest טענה against Zionism, more than the שבועות aspect.

This is why the Divrei Yoel זצ״ל DID NOT hold of the disgusting antics of the people in the news every other day who call themselves Neturei Karta (who אגב probably aren’t even coordinated with the Yerushalmi group of the same name, although I can’t prove that conclusively.)

    The Divrei Yoel זצ״ל in fact did authorize and participate in public demonstrations against the State of “Israel”.

    I’m at a loss of words. Who is calling for a political “sudden change of status quo”? The handful of long form interviews I’ve listen to from NK leaders are clear that they are not pushing any political agenda, no practical action, rather their activism is purely theological in nature.

    And you are correct, taking charge politically of the situation is precisely one of the many sins of the zionist evil movement. No one is picking up a gun to stop the IDF in the name Torah.

    It baffles me that this is not obvious if you have ever read anything from NK or anyone else from the Torah world. From top to bottom Torah’s anti-zionism like it anti-catholicism is about saving Jewish lives.

    ujm is right. SR zatsal did participate in demonstrations against Israel in the US.

    these demonstrations were vehemently opposed by rav aharon kotler zatsal.

    Yankel: I’m not aware of that being the case. On what basis do you assert that?

    It appears unlikely as just ten years ago Rav Malkiel Kotler, Rav Elya Ber Wachtfogel, Rav Ahron Schter and other Litvish Gedolim together with both Satmar Rebbes and other Chasidishe Gedolim together joined at a public protest against the State of Israel in Manhattan when they were trying, again, to forcibly draft Bnei Torah.

    MY RESPONSE:

    What the Satmar Rebbe did in the 1950s is Ancient History and is no longer relevant.

    In the 1950s the State of Israel was less than ten years old and did not include The Kotel.

    In the 1950s the vast majority of Jews in the State of Israel
    did NOT have telephones and waited many years to get one.

    In the 1950s the State of Israel was NOTHING compared to what it is now.

    In the 1950s, anti-Zionists were a very small minority opinion
    and Satmar represented a very small minority of Orthodox Jews.

    After The Holocaust, anti-Zionism became
    much less popular among Jews,
    and after the Six Day War of 1967 CE,
    anti-Zionism became even less popular among Jews

    That should have read Rav Ahron Schechter who together with Rav Malkiel Kotler, Rav Elya Ber Wachtfogel, the two Satmar Rebbes and other Litvish and Chasidish Gedolim together orgnaized a protest in Manhattan against the State of Israel.

    You should be banned from posting (especially nonsense but, regardless) anything until you apologize for calling Jews Hamas agents and the like.

    ujm :

    have you read the principal of satmars book about the SR ? think its mentioned there

    its also mentioned in r eliahu beane’s book about rav ahron kotler – interviews from his talmidim vol 1

    situations change, so responses to situations also change

    there is no proof that rav ahron today would disapprove of his grandsons actions

    micro,

    You should be banned from posting anything until you call out your NK (Nazi Kapo) buddies for their vile behavior against the Gadol Hador.

    You tried to dance around this by writing, “there is no need to condemn the obvious”. Yet you also wrote “we don’t run our lives based on what people claim gedolim say. We ask our rav or rebbi who has a real mesorah from a real rebbi…going all the way back”.

    What you really meant is that you, just like NK, don’t hold of him as Gadol Hador. Until you explicitly acknowledge their unacceptable public desecration, you have no right to criticize anyone!
