Neturei Karta

Question: : What should we say be our opinion of the Neturei Karta in Eretz Yisroel?
You mean my opinion? My opinion is not important. Well anyhow, this gentleman asks what should we say about the Neturei Karta in Eretz Yisroel – of the shitah – of the derech of the Neturei Karta in Eretz Yisroel? Now that’s a question for which I am not suited. The truth is the Neturei Karta have among them choshuveh talmidei chachomim. But it’s true that among those who are not Neturei Karta, there are also very choshuveh talmidei chachomim. So I’m going to stick my little head between them – between Rav Amram Blau, zul’zein gezunt, a talmid chocham, and between, let’s say, what’s his name, Rav Chaskel Abramsky, who’s not Neturei Karta? Or HaRav Shach, the Rosh Yeshiva in Ponovizh Yeshiva. He’s not Neturei Karta.
In general, there’s no question that almost everything fundamental is germane to all of them. They have the same ideas. They differ on minor points. The truth is the points are very minor. Like someone once said, “All yeshiva people, all over the world, are really Neturei Karta.” That’s what somebody said. It means that they all agree with them. The question is should you do exactly this, let’s say when it comes to voting, so some Gedolim say we should vote in Eretz Yisroel to give more power to the Orthodox – Agudas Yisroel party. And the others say by voting you signify consent to the atheistic regime. So this is a delicate question and it’s up to greater people to decide it.
In general, we have to know, that more or less, everyone is in agreement. Among the good element everybody is in agreement.

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

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.

All That Remains

All That Remains: The Palestinian Villages Occupied and Depopulated by Israel in 1948 Paperback – April 13, 2006 by Professor Walid Khalidi, of Oxford and Harvard Universities (Editor). This authoritative reference work describes in detail the more than 400 Palestinian villages that were destroyed or depopulated by Israel in 1948. Little of these once-thriving communities remains: not only have they been erased from the Palestinian landscape, their very names have been removed from contemporary Israeli maps. But to hundreds of thousands of Palestinians living in their diaspora, these villages were home, and continue to be poignantly powerful symbols of their personal and national identity. The culmination of nearly six years of research by more than thirty participants, this authoritative reference work describes in detail the more than 400 Palestinian villages that were destroyed or depopulated during the 1948 war. Going beyond the scope of previously published accounts, All That Rema
