• Above protest demonstrations were held in the past 10 days in : New York, Boston, Washington DC, London, Montreal Canada and Jerusalem organized by Neturei Karta . This is their statement, Demonstration Against the Violence in Gaza :
    
  Orthodox Rabbis representing Torah-True Jews and Rabbinical authorities will be demonstrating their outrage at the Zionist state of “Israel” and its atrocities against the inhabitants of Gaza. What has caused a people to fall to such levels of depravity? Come and hear our message! Zionism and the state of “Israel” is expressly forbidden according to the Torah. We are forbidden to make any attempts to leave the Godly decreed exile; We are forbidden to oppress any people and we are required to be loyal citizens in every country in which we reside, we are required to emulate God — we are to be kind and compassionate.
   
  Judaism is a religion of thousands of years. Zionism is a relatively new movement of over little over a hundred years, created by non-religious Jews who aspired to transform the religion into nationalism and have rebelled continually against the Almighty’s commandments. This has culminated in the terrible atrocities being perpetrated against the people of Gaza today. … (continues at link)
   
• Allan C. Brownfeld explains in, The Long—and Largely Untold—History Of Jewish Opposition to Zionism :
   
  ….. the historical—largely untold—fact is that, for most of its history, Zionism has been a decidedly minority movement among Jews throughout the world.
   
  Since its inception as a political movement in 1897, both Reform and Orthodox Jews have rejected Zionism’s basic premise of creating a Jewish state in Palestine and having Jews either emigrate to it or, at the very least, view it as “central” to their Jewish identity.
   
  An overwhelming majority of Orthodox Jews, unwilling to accept the restoration of a Jewish state in Palestine by means other than divine intervention, considered Zionism a false messianic movement. Most Jewish liberals and socialists, having accepted the ideals of the Enlightenment, with its emphasis in optimism, reason and progress, rejected Zionism as a reactionary philosophy. ……
    
  “Zionism constitutes the most radical revolution in Jewish history. Opposition to this nationalist conceptualization of the Jew and of Jewish history was as intense as it was immediate. Even those rabbis who at first encouraged settlement in Palestine in the closing decades of the 19th century felt obliged to turn against Zionism. What made the Jews unique, they declared, was neither the territory of Eretz Israel nor the Hebrew language, but the Torah and the practice of mitzvahs.  …….
   
  In the early 20th century, the reaction to Zionism among both Orthodox and Reform Jews was overwhelming. The French rabbis were unanimous. Zionism was “narrow-minded and reactionary.” They refused to recognize Jews as a separate political nation.  …….
   
  For example, a Neturei Karta document asserts: “The Zionist movement was not only a heretical departure from Judaism…It was monstrously blind to the indigenous inhabitants of the Holy Land. In the 1890s, less than 5% of the Holy Land’s population was Jewish, yet Theodor Herzl…described his movement as that of ‘a people without a land for a land without a people’…They have dispossessed thousands…and plunged the region into its never-ending spiral of bloodshed.”
   
  No one who reads Yakov Rabkin’s thoroughly researched book will ever again believe that Zionism and Judaism are the same, or that Zionism enjoys the level of support among Jews in the United States and elsewhere in the world which it claims.
   
• Criticizing murder and genocide is in no way Anti-Semitic. Strictly speaking Anti-Semitism means against people of middle east descent (tribe of Shem). Palestinians are also people. G-D fearing Jews are speaking up against mass murder. Why shouldn’t anyone?
   
• History is clearly against the propaganda of Zionism. Jews have always protested against Zionism. Research it for yourself. Don’t be deceived by the lies, propaganda and money politics of Zionism.
