Israel has killed thousands of Palestinian civilians: men, women and children without a second thought or remorse. So, what's a few more Turks killed in the big scheme of Israeli policies?
Besides, a Rabbi knows best when is comes to what pleases God, and the rabbi said it is OK.
So, living by the Torah leads the 'Light unto the nations' to prevail over the rotten ones who advocate not killing children or destroy places of worship (The opinions of the despicable rabbi were taken verbatim from an 'Ask the Rabbi' article in Moment Magazine, Summer of 2009).Chabad rabbi declared his 'Godly' view of where Judaism stands:
I don’t believe in western morality, i.e. don’t kill civilians or children, don’t destroy holy sites, don’t fight during holiday seasons, don’t bomb cemeteries, don’t shoot until they shoot first because it is immoral.
The only way to fight a moral war is the Jewish way: Destroy their holy sites. Kill men, women and children (and cattle).
The first Israeli prime minister who declares that he will follow the Old Testament will finally bring peace to the Middle East. First, the Arabs will stop using children as shields. Second, they will stop taking hostages knowing that we will not be intimidated. Third, with their holy sites destroyed, they will stop believing that G-d is on their side. Result: no civilian casualties, no children in the line of fire, no false sense of righteousness, in fact, no war.
Zero tolerance for stone throwing, for rockets, for kidnapping will mean that the state has achieved sovereignty. Living by Torah values will make us a light unto the nations who suffer defeat because of a disastrous morality of human invention.

Nice religion that 'man-of-god has'.
And, by the way, the nice Rabbi has not - and will not - be declared a terrorist, charged with hate incitement, a hate crime or even 'a hate-misdemeanor'. And he will never get deported to the only homeland he believes in that was promised to the likes of him.
And the followers that flock to his hate-spewing place of worship and pay money to keep him 'productive' will always be secure from harassment, FBI interrogations, and surveillance by our security agencies.

Khaled -- And Old Testament Joshua anhilated Jericho, too. "The walls came tumbling down"...and everyone was slaughtered. According to Jewish legend, God supported that as well. So, the Gaza killings were right out of a very strong tradition, it seems. But that's not my God. Nor is it yours either, I suspect. Who's is it? Both instances sound to me like self-focused figments of Jewish imagination...rather than divine inspiration.
ReplyDeleteDear Harry: I am totally with you on that one. When religion justifies blood-shed and plays favoritism to its own believers, I stop seeing divine scripture. It is simply clannish gang mentality - 100% man-made.
ReplyDeleteThis Rabbi must be a terrorist. I guess maybe there is another definition for a terrorist.
ReplyDeleteHe definitely has the right mindset for that.
