‘The rabbis emphatically stated that Jewish Law prohibits any territorial concession, whether now or in the future, going further by saying that Jewish law commands that if foreigners enter the Land even on ‘business related to straw’–that is, not to incite violence, are unarmed and recognize the Jewish state, exactly as specified in the Deal of the Century—that Jews are nonetheless obligated to wage war against them, even on the Shabbat, so that no Jewish territories will be ceded to them.’
ed note–the REAL reason that the rabbis–along with Netanyahu, Gantz, Bennett, Shaked and every other ‘good Jew’ around the world–who opposes DJT’s ‘Dealof the Century’ has nothing to do with security, with Oslo, with ‘balloon bombs’, ‘terror kites’ or anything else other than the following–
‘On that day the LORD made a covenant with Abraham, saying ‘To your descendants I give this land, from the river of Egypt to the great river Euphrates’…Book of Genesis
‘And God spoke unto us saying, ‘Go to the hill-country and all the places nigh thereunto… in the Arabah, the hill-country and in the Lowland… in the South and by the sea-shore, the land of the Canaanites, and Lebanon, as far as the great river, the river Euphrates…Go in therefore and possess the land which the Lord swore unto your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, unto them and to their seed after them…’ Book of Deuteronomy
‘Every place whereon the sole of your foot shall tread shall be yours, from the wilderness, and Lebanon, from the river Euphrates, even unto the hinder sea shall be your border…’ Book of Deuteronomy
‘…From the wilderness, and this Lebanon, even unto the great river, the Euphrates, all the land of the Hittites, and unto the Great Sea toward the going down of the sun, shall be your border…’ Book of Joshua 1:4

The Rabbinical Congress for Peace (RCP) composed of over four hundred Israeli rabbis, unequivocally rejects US President Trump’s ‘Deal of the Century.’
The rabbis have emphatically stated that Jewish Law prohibits any declaration of territorial concession, whether now or in the future, even when accompanied by strict conditions and restrictions, and that such concessions create dangerous on-the-ground situations, and stand in direct contradiction to halakha (Jewish Law).
The rabbis further expressed their shock at the Israeli government’s agreement to the establishment of a future Palestinian state, with East Jerusalem as its capital, as it was declared.
‘No one knows what will happen four years from now in the Middle East. However, one thing will be remembered: that Israel already stated that in principle, East Jerusalem will be the capital of the Palestinian state,’ the rabbinical statement said.
At a special meeting held this morning, the rabbis of the Congress announced: ‘Jewish Law determines that if foreigners enter the Land even on ‘business related to straw,’ that is, not to incite violence, are unarmed and recognize the Jewish state, exactly as specified in the Deal of the Century—Jews are nonetheless obligated to wage war against them, even on the Shabbat, so that no Jewish territories will be seceded to them. This is even truer when the enemy has not yet fulfilled the conditions. Then it is forbidden to make such promises, which will only reinforce their commitment to harming the country and its inhabitants. Even more infuriating is the fact that Israel agreed to these concessions, including the immediate suspension of building in flourishing Jewish communities, before the Palestinians accepted to a single clause.’
Of course, the rabbis of the RCP thank President Trump for his sympathetic and unprecedented treatment of the Jewish people and the Land of Israel: ‘There is no question that his intentions are pure. Our claims are against the Prime Minister and the weak Israeli leadership, who, instead of taking advantage of this rare and amazingly period in history, graced by Heaven’s compassion, run joyfully forward to announce their agreement, in principle, with the formation of a Palestinian state and to territorial concessions, the outcome of which no one can yet imagine.’
‘Why all the celebration? What exactly did we achieve?’ Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu, Rabbi of Tzfat, asked. ‘They managed to completely confuse the nation. The only one who is really celebrating is [Palestinian Authority Chairman] Abu Mazen. He got what he wanted and will continue to demand more and more. The establishment of a Palestinian state is worse than the disengagement from Gush Katif.’
Congress Chairman, Rabbi Joseph Gerlitzky, Rabbi of Central Tel Aviv, said at the gathering that, based on past experience, any declarations of future Israeli concessions automatically becomes the starting point for further negotiations. ‘There is no question that from the perspective of the international community, and certainly, from the perspective of the Arab states, the maps presented by Trump and the establishment of a Palestinian state are already accepted facts. Israel declared them itself. Palestinian demands will be even greater in the future, and will undoubtedly be accompanied by a wave of terror, G-d forbid.’
‘We seem to be repeating the same mistake as Oslo,’ commented Rabbi Abraham Shmuel Lewin, General-Secretary of the Rabbinical Congress. ‘The PLO was then in a state of total collapse, and Israel revitalized them. Today, as well, the Palestinian Authority—Israel’s bitter enemy—is also in a state of collapse and are ignored by the entire world, including the other Arab nations. Yet now, has Israel not only returned them to center-stage, they have promised them a state! Sovereignty is worth nothing if it requires us to secede from areas under Israeli control and to endanger the entire country. There is no question that any territories that lack a full Israeli presence immediately become a haven for terrorists.’
Rabbi Abraham Schreiber, rabbi of the Gush Katif community, announced that his community would oppose the Trump plan: ‘Any plan that entails a weakening of Israel’s position leads inexorably to further concessions and renewed threats. This is the beginning of a destruction whose end we cannot foresee.’ Rabbi Schreiber added that the strange ‘euphoria’ and ‘messianic atmosphere’ that the Prime Minister is trying to create is only a smokescreen that is hiding much greater concessions, which have not yet been revealed to the public.
Rabbi Elyakim Levanon, regional rabbi of Samaria and the rabbi of the Elon Moreh Community, commented on the meeting: ‘We thank President Trump for his wonderful friendship with the people of Israel. We can now declare Jewish sovereignty over the entire Land of Israel, without the need to make dangerous concessions and foolish declarations. However, we, the members of the Rabbinical Congress will fight tooth and nail against the ‘Deal of the Century,’ and have only one declaration to make, which will certainly receive President Trumps backing, if it is stated clearly and unequivocally: There will never be a Palestinian state, and Israel will never withdraw from any territory that is part of the Promised Land.
F*** THOSE jews. They are NASTY. They are NOT Gods chosen people either.
Those who call themselves Jews and are not! The only people with ancestral claims to greater Palestine/Israel are of Palestinian descent. The current Jews originated in norther Turkey. Their own DNA test prove they do not come from the Palestinian territories. They are frauds and claim jumpers.
ed note–with all due respect, you are allowing yourself to be misdirected and distracted with the ‘ancestral claims’ angle. What if the Jews could prove with 100% certainty that they are genetically linked to the region, would that change the picture in the smallest degree?
No, it would not. Bloodshed and genocide are bloodshed and genocide irrespective of who is doing it and what kind of DNA happens to be flowing in their veins.
We appreciate your contribution, but in the end, this ‘Khazar’ business has only worked to the Jews’ favor in that it has distracted people from understanding what is the inherently violent and destructive nature of Judah-ism itself.
It’s obvious that European Jews never came from Israel because they look European not Middle Eastern. Therefore the State Of Israel is illegitimate. Regardless, when the Bible says the Jews return to Israel it meant in your heart. Not to murder everyone in sight and steal their land. The leaders of both sides of all wars are always in on it together. The most secure border in history was deliberately left wide open for eight hours as an excuse for mass murder. Hamas would never have attempted it if they didn’t know in advance that the IDF would stand down. It should be noted that many orthodox Jews and other Jews are anti Zionist. Many have left Israel in disgust. Lastly BN has no mandate. The parliamentary system gives him power without a majority. Just like Trudeau. See the proof at CVHOAX.COM
ed note–The illegitimacy of Israel is not based on a people’s DNA. The illegitimacy is due to the fact that millions of innocent people already living there were violently forced from their homes and land and millions of them have been murdered.
A century ago, before the influx of terrorist Judah-ites from Europe began, imagine if some rogue group of Arabs from the peninsula decided to invade Palestine and rename it ‘New Arabia’ or something like that, utilizing the same violence against the Palestinians that has been inflicted by the Jews. According to your template, this new state would be ‘legitimate’ because the invaders were indigenous to the area.
You see where all of this is going, right?
And by the way, there are Jews in Israel–the Sephardic and Mizrahi–who are Middle Eastern in their DNA and who–not coincidentally–are some of the most violent of all the citizens making up ‘the Jewish State’, but hey, since their DNA is attached to the region, that violence is ok, right?
C’mon people, if we are going to fight this war, for the Palestinians, Lebanese and eventually, the rest of the world, let’s fight it with the mindset of winning, and what this requires is dropping pointless arguments that do nothing in bringing clarity to the issue.
“‘On that day the LORD made a covenant with Abraham, saying ‘To your descendants I give this land,”
What % of modern day Israelis are descendants of Abraham?
Where’s the deed?
ed note–you just quoted ‘the deed’, one which they wrote for themselves.
