Whilst he says he’s proud of it, he is ignorant of Judaism, its customs, traditions and beliefs. He, “Ziggy” or Zach Lichman, may of course not be Jewish - if his mother is not I do not know if that is the case. What is so tragic is him telling a fellow housemate that he as a ‘Jew’ would have no problem marrying a non-Jew. Maybe he has been denied a basic Jewish education; and he is simply uneducated and ignorant. He says he is almost totally unobservant and seemingly would openly do things which contravene Jewish law. What is also so horrifying, upsetting and catastrophic about this, is the huge amount of damage that the “Reform”, reconstructionist and assimilationist cults’ role in this. They are the prime causes for intermarriages and assimilation amongst the Jewish people. Even the so-called “orthodox” United Synagogue have long cherished Jews “integrating”, not recognizing and realising the harm this does to young Jews, who gradually fall to the wider secular-liberal un-Jewish culture. So many have been spiritually lost - political correctness, self-hatred, leftist “intellectuals” all have also defiantly contributed to Jews marring outside their faith and being unaware of basic Judaism and core symbols a severe crime which screams to the heavens. Eretz Israel is the only country seeing a steady natural growth of the Jewish birth-rate, elsewhere in the U.K., the U.S. and in Europe it is largely falling, despite the Charedi-religious growth. On the whole there is huge assimilation among Jews living in the western world, leading to intermarriage and the loss of a whole generation of Jews. The exile has at times (and still does) strengthen the Jewish people in their faith but has also worked the other way, Jews fleeing from persecution often want to assimilate and just be like anybody else more often than not they are hated even more, they are still rejected and persecuted despite. And when they stick together, and remain true to their heritage they are hated as well and accused of all sorts of malicious lies and are targets of Jew-hating Nazis. The exile is not where Jews belong, despite some ‘successes’ Hashem allowed Jewish sovereignty after 2,000 years and the creation of a modern Jewish State for a reason, he created the miracle, so that Jews shouldn’t deny this miracle but settle in their place of birth. Eretz Yisrael is where Jews belong and should be living all Jews. They should live in Israel not because of anti-semitism but despite it. It is their future. Despite many Jews in Israel being far from Torah Judaism, they do keep, do observe and follow many mitzvoth and traditions - but not just that, they posses a lot of Jewish knowledge. Sadly, more and more, the State is educating the next generation to hate religious Jews and to love appeasing the enemies of the Jews, and be cowards and support the socialist Bolsheviks. Nonetheless, living in Eretz Yisrael is still crucial, still very important for guarantying the future of the Jewish people. The exile works against the Jewish people in the long run, and is noting but detrimental to the majority of Jews who are being distanced more and more due to assimilation. Having Jews all around and not wanting to be like everyone else is the key. In the exile many just want to mix in due to so many issues which lead to intermarriage, rachmana litzlan. ================================= 11 June 2007 WHY THE APATHY, WHY THE SILENCE, WHY THE INDIFFERENCE There are too few Jews willing, capable and able (not in that order) to stand up, to raise their voice for Jewish rights. They are not prepared to confront their enemies external as well as internal, to crush them and teach them a lesson they will not forget. Hardy anyone is fighting for the truth, rather they fight and defend their enemies, or worse are quiet and ineffective plain useless. They potray a sense of weakness, of a lack of strength, courage and conviction to do what is needed for the Jewish people and Eretz Yisrael. There is no vison, but only defeatism, surrender and morally depraved garbage. We need those who physically will display strength, power, might and steadfastness for the Torah, for Yahadut, for Eretz Yisrael and Am Yisrael. Forget about those in the exile, who are sinning by living outside Eretz Yisrael, they are supposed to live in Israel, bring up their families there. However, they have endless (petty) excuses for not making the move. Many reject the Torah’s commandment of Yishuv Eretz Yisrael, coming up with a whole lot of nonsense and lies. Anyone who defends living in the exile and does not preach making aliyah should be ashamed of themselves. After so many years living in the Galut, they are used to it want to stick with it and not make sacrifices for their destiny and heritage. For generations Jews have suffered programs, expulsions, blood libels etc. that has perhaps led them to a state of denial to ignorance about Eretz Yisrael, saying we should only live there when Mashiach arrives is a false ideology, with no truth and no basis whatsoever. After 2,000 Hashem allowed Jews to recreate their country in the Biblical Land of Israel, He did not create all these victories for nothing. Our great Talmudei Chachamim, dayanim, Roshei Yishevot and other Rabbanim knew the importance of settling and living in Eretz Yisrael. They were already moving back from the exile before Jewish sovereignty in the 16oos. They faced harsh conditions; it was not easy, compared with a very contrasted situation today. 06 11 2007 BLAIR NOT A FRIEND OF ISRAEL AND ITS JEWS, BUT A FOE: AN ENEMY It is extremely disgusting and repulsive to read all the establishment's Jewish papers heaping undeserved praise on outgoing British Prime Minister Tony Blair ys”hvz, as a “friend” of Jews and Israel. They treat/ed him like an idol (a god), worshiped him and gave him credibility and support. He not only doesn’t deserve this, he should be condemned and rebuked - but as usual the Anglo Jewish self-hating sell-outs have not got the guts, commonsense and ability to expose the man for what he did to the little Jewish State whilst in office. They rather love living in the exile and out of so many years being beaten and downtrodden, want to cozy up to the people in power to be on their side, to get money, to get kickbacks and honour they would do anything towards those goals. They do have such a loyalty to Eretz Yisrael hashleima, they do not live there and they want their silly little organizations and movements in the U.K. to continue and thrive, even at the price of going against the Torah, of having no true Jewish values, principle and ideals. They are not idealists, they are not people with any sense of morality, they admire a person like Tony Blair: #1. who wants nothing but the Jewish State’s disintegration, #2. who worked with Bush to pressure Israel, for Blair's support for the failed Iraq war. That’s a friend of Israel? They admire Blair who #3. appeased terrorists and fanatics in the U.K. and #4. wished/s Israel do the same. Blair who #5. wanted(s) Israel to release Arab Jew-killing murderers, Blair #6. who because of his pressure for Israel to remove roadblocks and insane retreats from parts of Eretz Yisrael, have caused untold numbers of Jews to be killed, maimed and wounded for life. That’s a friend of Israel? Blair, and his evil Arabist foreign office has never been a friend of Israel, #7. his support of kicking Jews out of their homes, Blair’s had #8. nothing but joy when Israel committed acts of surrender and suicidal policies. He led #9. to Jews being blown up on buses, in pizza stores and shopping malls. That’s a friend of Israel? The elitist establishment glossed over this; they have no future here, because Jews belong in Israel and ONLY have a future there. Blair was no friend of the Jewish people in, and the land of, Israel. Blair’s #10. accommodation for anti-Semites in the Arab world, his calling for a State for these baby-killers and racist, makes him an enemy to all good, decent Jews and certainly no where near a friend. It is a disgrace and disgusting to see Jews sad that he is going and hoping his successor (Gordon Brown) will follow his crazy path. That’s a friend of Israel? Auschwitz borders is what these self-hating leftist Jews support, they do n
