Author Alan Hart has written an interesting historical account entitled "Zionism: The Real Enemy of the Jews" in which he argues that the Zionist program of colonizing the whole of Eretz Yisrael by force, as promoted by the World Likud bloc and its supporters, is the enemy of peaceful coexistence.

Bold as this thesis seems, it falls short of the actual target. One cannot effectively argue against Zionism without first arguing against Talmudism, since it is the Jewish Talmud itself which provides the spurious arguments upon which Zionism is based.

First, that the Jews are a "divine race", selected by God himself to rule over the lesser nations that lack the divine soul of the Jewish people, with the mandate "to conquer and to purify all the gentile countries" *. This includes suppression of Christian culture, "...according to the known Jewish legal ruling that Christians are idol worshippers", with Jesus himself condemned as "a dangerous, false prophet" who is now burning in hell.**

Second, that "Eretz Yisrael", including Jerusalem and all the territory from the Sinai to the Euphrates river (i.e. Palestine, Jordan, Lebanon, Syria) is the promised "land of Canaan" to which the Jews alone are entitled, in perpetuity. All other inhabitants are to be "driven out".

This belief in Jewish supremacy, support for the Jewish State, and disdain for "gentile cultures" is not limited to the Likudniks. This is the prevailing Jewish worldview, expressed time and again in their writings and their actions. Yet the Torah and the Prophets do NOT support these self-serving interpretations.

Israel was "chosen" to be the example of a righteous society governed by simple laws based on mutual respect and self-restraint, rather than kings, priests, false gods, and the lust for wealth and power. They failed repeatedly, and Jehovah eventually allowed the Romans to overrun Jerusalem in 70 A.D., destroy Herod's temple, and drive them out of the "promised land" to the far corners of the earth -- exactly as the prophets had predicted.

As the Yom Kippur prayer says, "next year in Jerusalem!". But under whose authority?

The worldwide problems caused by the Zionist program of conquest and domination cannot be eliminated until the underlying religious sophistry is exposed and repudiated. If Jehovah is just, then he will not allow the exploitation and abuse of the other nations -- who are also "his people" -- to go unanswered for much longer.

* Rabbi Schneerson (quoted) and his Chabad Lubavitch movement were officially honored by the U.S. Congress in 1991. The revived Council of the Sanhedrin intends to "judge the Noahides" (non-Jews) from their seat in Jerusalem.

** Jesus denounced the Pharisees as hypocrites, and accurately foretold that the Jewish temple would be destroyed, 40 years before it happened. Roman Catholics, the self-styled "true and only" Christian church, are in fact idol worshippers in direct violation of the Torah commandments.
