A group of anti-Zionist rabbis has visited the Palestinian parliament to pledge their support for the prospective Hamas-led government.
The rabbis from the small ultra-Orthodox movement Neturei Karta, which this month sent a delegation to Iran, travelled to the West Bank town of Ram Allah to express their support for the Islamic group.
The group rejects the existence of the state of Israel as contrary to Jewish law and believes the land should be returned to Palestinians.
Neturei Karta believe that no Jewish state should be created before the coming of the messiah.
"We are true Jews who have come to the Palestinian Legislative Council today to proclaim our allegiance to the new Hamas regime," said a spokesman for the group.
"We came to express our complete support for the Palestinian people. We consider ourselves Palestinians and, like them, we regard ourselves as under Zionist occupation."
Parliament Speaker Aziz Dweik called an adjournment of parliament, controlled by Hamas since its January election victory, so that the 14 rabbis, led by spiritual leader Moshe Hirsh, could be welcomed by legislators.
The anti-Zionist movement once represented a stronger current within ultra-Orthodox Judaism, but its membership has dropped to about 400 families in Israel, with supporters in Britain and the US.
Hirsh, proclaiming himself a Palestinian Jew, served as Jewish affairs adviser to the late Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat.
These idiots ally with leftists and islamists. How stupid. I bet they would ally with Nazis.
My sentiments EXACTLY. You just beat me to it.
Meshunginas.
This mentality is sickening. In their haste to bash Israel, they side with terrorists and murderers. The same mentality can be seen in many other groups.
They are likely living on the dole of the non-existent state of Israel.
Guess Ms. Robinson must be a big fan of beheadings.
They nay be on to something
They would have to refute http://www.direct.ca/trinity/y3nf.html.
before I would believe them.
I can count on one finger the number of people named "Rabbi" who are fit to teach.
---------------------------
Traitors to the cause of justice and freedom. What are they thinking? What are we thinking allowing murderous thugs run the Palestinian government? Now that Israel knows where they are how about making them extinct?
The nk are a bunch of idiots, however there are alot more secular or reform hamas supporting leftists than nk members. I wonder why they don't get such press?
As much as I despise these NK retards, the anti-Israel leftists are far more dangerous to the Jewish state.
FRmail me to be added or removed from this Judaic/pro-Israel/Russian Jewry ping list.
Warning! This is a high-volume ping list.
Every group has its Bell Curve. Someone has to be at the left hand margin.
Feh!
I despise them far more than liberal unobservant Jews. The NK morons hide behind their strigent observance of halacha and fool many.
These asshats are mehalel shabbos (desecrate the Sabbath) in order to show up at "Palestinian solidarity" protests held on Saturday. They are not "religious" Jews, they are turds in black coats.
Would have been a great time for a border closing.
