Judaism and Zionism are not the same thing.

Judaism and Zionism are not the same thing. These שקרנים are trying to get us involved, so they're trying to say that all the Arab states and all the other states are enemies of the Jews. That's a lie! You'll say, "But aren't Arab gentiles enemies of the Jews?" It could be, but they're not different than other gentiles. The fact that they are against the State of Israel is a political expediency that has nothing to do with us. And therefore, we shouldn't allow ourselves to be drawn into this maelstrom of political hatred that the Zionists would like to have. They want us all committed so we should all be in the same boat, chas vesholom. We'll all sink together. Nothing doing! Nothing doing! We're a separate entity! And the truth is, we're more than separate. They're against the Torah! They're atheists! Golda Meir is an atheist. A man gave me a clipping this weak. Golda Meir wrote a memoir. She wrote there that in 1917 she got married. So she said she doesn't want to be married by a rabbi, because she is a Socialist, and she refused. She had a long, drawn out fight with her mother in Milwaukee. The mother said, "You'll ruin me if you'll get married in City Hall." But Golda Meir insisted. She didn't want. Finally, her mother said, "Look, just because of fifteen minutes under the chuppah that you don't want to do, you are willing to ruin my name in Milwaukee?" So she consented. She was married by a rabbi. They're our enemies these people. They hate Judaism! Not that they are merely indifferent; they hate it. Sadat came to America, and they served him a kosher meal for Mohammedans. Mohammedans can't eat some things, and they served only a meal that a Mohammedan can eat. But when these people came, from the Knesses, they served shrimp! So you see that these people don't represent us. So our connection with these people is the same connection as with Christians....And when the Torah says you're a brother, you're a brother means אחיך במצוות -- only the one who has the same commitment to מצוות as you have.

Israel pays students to post favorable comments online.

https://www.facebook.com/FromDarknessToLightTRUTH/videos/760705497393111/ There's a few ways of spotting the paid comment makers. One is they generally go for ad homenum attacks. This one is an antisemite, that one is an enemy of Israel, this one is not qualified to speak. I also find it amusing that Noam Chomsky is considered not qualified to speak because his PhD is in linguistics but Alan Dershowitz, a trial attorney, is even though Chomsky is just brimming with relevant facts and Dershowitz is so clearly a manipulator. They are not too educated these commenters.  Also, they also never respond to educated responses because they have no response and possibly they are instructed not to respond so as not to help promote educated thought on the topic.

R. Mendel Kasher, who I find is the source of almost all the classic Zionist distortions - by Megila

R. Mendel Kasher, who I find is the source of almost all the classic Zionist distortions. He was the one who made up the story of those Gedolim signing a paper was the Medinah is the aschalta degeulah, and he was the one who doctored the story of the meeting of the Moetzes Chachmei HaTorah in 1937 where he left out the poiastion of people like Rav Ahron Kotler. He wrote a book called HaTekufah heGedolah which is absolutely full of misquotes, fabrications and distortions. His deception has already been exposed and well known to those who have researched this topic. R. Zvi Weinman documented extensively the forgeries of R. Kasher - and he even challenged him in public to respond to his findings when R. Kasher was alive - in his excellent work "Mikatowitz ad 5 B'Iyar." Of course, R. Kasher did not produce any response to the evidence against him. More of R. Kasher's falsifications are exposed in the sefer "Das HaTziyonus", especially his now famous fra...

The Real Charedim

It seems sometimes in the Mistake of Israel that anybody who isn't anti-religious, which essentially is most of the country, is Charedi, ie. claims to be. Oh I'm Charedi. Oh he's Charedi. That's what one hears from people as they march along with their smart phones, flags, and blue jeans. And I won't even give you a picture of how their wives and daughters dress and conduct themselves. They are all Charedi. I suspect that they make this claim because they see that irr-Religious Zionism is so empty. Oh, they still buy into all the myths about the Mistake and the army but they see intuitively that there's nothing else there. They want to latch onto the rich life of real Charedim, and the easy way to do that is with a simple declaration. And what about most of the country being anti-religious, well that's not necessarily how they'd describe themselves. After all, some have religious brothers and sisters and grandmothers. Some are just not hostile people and...
