Op-Ed: Élites are more dangerous to Israel than Islam
Arutz Sheva ^ | February 27, 2016 | Giulio Meotti

Posted on 02/28/2016 3:47:55 AM PST by Mr Apple

Penning an article for the Financial Times, historian Simon Schama, a liberal belonging to the establishment, writes that “the problem of the left with the Jews has a long and unfortunate history” and that “criticism of Israeli government policies became a rejection of Israel’s right to exist”. Schama then asks: “Why is it so much easier to hate the Jews?”

This is an article that should be sent to all those intellectuals, journalists, writers, academics who for years, every day, in Italy and the West, demonized the Jewish State. The good people on the left who feel that it is natural, even just, that Israel suffers offenses to its territory and to its own people. An appeal from Italian professors to boycott Israel has just reached 328 signatures.

Because Satan hates them, and he is the prince of this world....for now.

The media, government, the UN, are all in Lucifer's pocket.

Israel knows how to deal with terrorists from Gaza, Judea and Samaria, Lebanon and Sinai. The IDF is powerful and brave enough to defeat and stop any menace and threat, except for Iran’s nuclear bombs. What Israel is not able to defeat is the global Left’s attempt to undermine Israel’s rights over the holy land and to defend itself.

A tactic of Satan is to cause a problem, and then whine about it. Then he offers the solution, which usually involves explosions and blood. He wants the Jews dead, every last one, so he manipulates a few key, evil Jews, like Soros, many in the media and elite, in banking etc - the “Synagogue of Satan,” to make them all look bad.

“Élites are more dangerous to Israel than Islam”

Regarding the elites in our country, the celebs, the ultra-rich (as in Bill Gates, Soros etc), the MSM, academia, Beltway RINO’s among others are mostly all left wing America haters. They are the fifth column.

They are more dangerous to us than Islam. The old saying “United we stand, divided we fall” certainly holds true to any culture, be it Israel or the US. Our very own home grown leftists have always been a bigger threat than the old USSR, modern Russia, Mao’s China, the new China or Islam or anything.

The Torah is The Word of God. It is the Link between Heaven and earth. It IS God’s Presence upon the earth. The Jews have successfully transmitted The Torah, intact and unchanged through millenia. No Torah no God. No Jews no Torah. This ain’t rocket science.

Unlike muslims, Jews and Christians don't self appoint themselves to be your assassin if you criticize them.

The Torah says that Judah does not have authority from G_d to rule over the land again until Moshiach comes? Did I miss His coming?

Not that I know of. I also don’t know how that pertains to anything I said.
