We Jews do not accept the existence of Israel
Mehr News, International Group, English Service: American universities protested the genocide since early May. The Zionist regime in the Gaza Strip is witnessing protests that, from the eyes of observers, were seen in the 1960s and the protests of the country’s universities against the Vietnam War. These protests against the Zionist genocide in more than 50 American universities went as far as some other Western countries, Australia (Universities of Melbourne and Sydney), Canada (McGill and Concordia Universities), France (Institute of Political Studies of Paris and Sorbonne University), Italy (Sapienza University), England (Leeds University, London College and Warwick University) etc. were drawn.

In this regard, the correspondent of Mehr news agency’s English service conducted an interview with Rabbi “Yisruel David Weiss”, a senior member and spokesman of the American anti-Zionist Jewish community, which is explained below. /p>
The revolutionary leader recently addressed protesting students in America in a letter and told them that they “stood on the right side of history”, comment What do you think about this?
I was very surprised by the clarity of this letter. This is a very remarkable letter and a harbinger of change. I think this letter gave a lot of encouragement to students in America and around the world. They want to hear encouragement and students need encouragement; Because it is very difficult to hold a sit-in in cold, rainy or very hot weather conditions, and in addition, the security forces do not allow tents to be erected. Also, in this situation, they are accused of anti-Semitism and face confrontations with the police who want to disperse them from their gathering places. Each of the states does its own methods to prevent the establishment of these demonstrations, which includes sending guards and security forces.
The general process is the same. They can use these words of encouragement and we are grateful to the great leader for this beautiful letter. I would love to be able to meet him in person about this because it’s amazing how we share the same vision. This is similar to the message I gave to the rabbis at a college about this.
10 years ago after the incident that happened in France and several French citizens were killed by ISIS , the leader of the revolution wrote a letter addressed to the youth in Europe and America, it was a time when ISIS attacks were happening all over Europe and Islamophobia was formed in the western media. The content of the letter was related to ISIS attacks and that ISIS does not represent Islam.
Basically, we do not recognize the existence of Israel as the “Naturi Carta” movement, which is the organization of anti-Zionist Jews and the authentic voice of Judaism and the true representative of this religion, and they We consider it a complete distortion of our religion, they use the symbols of Judaism including the Star of David for themselves, while this is completely contrary to Judaism. Judaism does not allow Jews to have sovereignty for themselves, and it certainly does not do this by killing and stealing, and taking the land of Palestine means trying to return and establish a sovereignty, which is against the Jewish religion.
Now what is happening in Gaza is very brutal, killing is happening minute by minute. This is what led the students to decide on it and be prepared to lose their lives and their safe environment and stand up and protest So in all aspects this entity is illegal in the Jewish religion and also against It is what God tells us that we should be grateful to Arabs and Muslims. Because the Arab and Muslim people accepted the Jews and gave us a home while they were suffering in the European soil and instead of showing gratitude, they bullied them. In fact, the costs incurred are because the houses have been stolen, the land has been stolen and the entire identity of Palestine has been stolen by the Zionists who are again using the cover of Judaism.
From the very first day that this movement started in Europe, our rabbis, as representatives of the Jewish religion and communities, stood unanimously to oppose Zionism. In Palestine it happened that the communities were protesting and our rabbis were brutally beaten, arrested and killed. These events happened in the last 76 years. So we understand very well that when Ayatollah Khamenei wrote this letter and when Islamophobia happens in Europe, Zionism uses the opportunity to attribute it to Islamic countries and to the Muslim people of the region, including the Islamic Republic of Iran. This is where the problem arises and this is why these attacks are happening in Europe and elsewhere.
They don’t accept that these terrorist incidents have anything to do with Islam. Therefore, they try to relate every issue to Islam and equate those attacks with Islam. Therefore, we are very grateful to Ayatollah Khamenei, who not only mentioned these in his letter, but repeatedly distinguished them in his speeches and said that our opposition to the Zionist regime and attacks on Zionists do not mean opposition to the Jews. It is spoken by a person who has been the leader of Iran for many years. Also, you can see in practice what his position is, because a Jewish community is currently living here in the Islamic Republic of Iran, and they enjoy freedom and worship with God, and they follow Jewish customs, and there is no stopping factor. And there is no pressure for them. It is clear what the great leader is saying; We are not against the Jews and we are against the Zionist regime and Israel. It is important for him to be clear and transparent when a turbulent event happens in Europe.
Regarding what Israel is doing in Gaza, do you think these crimes that Israel is committing? How does it affect the image of the Jewish people in public opinion in the world?
This is an issue taken from the day of Nakbat (occupation of Palestine and the forced migration of Palestinians from this land in 1948) as a terrible disaster because not only killing and repression The Palestinians have continued for 76 years and now they (the Zionists) are doing their evil killing and genocide, but they are also doing other horrible things that the world does not see. They tried to sever the link between the Jews and God by creating Zionism. There is no depth or soul in what they do because it has nothing to do with God. They use the corruption of Judaism, which is in enmity and opposition to God, so it is not Judaism.
We as “Naturi Carta” movement, which is an anti-Zionist Jewish organization and the authentic voice of Judaism and the true representative of this religion is, we do not recognize the existence of Israel and consider them to be a complete distortion of our religion, they use the symbols of Judaism including the Star of David for themselves, while this is completely contrary to Judaismeven in the current situation, especially in Regarding the Gaza issue, Netanyahu and members of his government call themselves religious people and they say that they are very right. If this isn’t a joke, what could be? If this is not a terrible calamity, it is certainly a ridiculous statement because it is the exact opposite of Judaism. These monsters commit crimes, which they consider very right!
So what are the consequences of this? Because of this, there are people who look at Jewish people around the world as if the more religious you are, the more you support Israel. So clearly what happens is that anti-Semitism worsens and people hate Jews more because of it. This is exactly what the Zionists need because then they can say we need a country to protect us. So it’s a vicious cycle. They create more hatred of the Jews so that the Jews feel fear where they are, then they say come to us and we will protect you. Do they protect them? Along with killing Palestinians, they brutally beat religious Jews. The Jewish and religious community is terribly suppressed there. As seen in the pictures, they beat boys and girls for not going to the army. You can see pictures of old man and child being beaten by soldiers.
In these days, we have even seen demonstrations in Jerusalem saying stop the terrorist-Zionist killing in Gaza. These are in the streets of Jerusalem. The events of the Gaza war are vicious attacks where you can see the brutality. We show you thousands of these photos. They pass over them with horses and the heads of the demonstrators are hit hard. We thank God that tens of thousands of people always demonstrate in Jerusalem.
There was a scandal at Columbia University because two Israeli students walked into a protesting crowd and they all got sick because they were sprayed with chemicals. was We have it in Palestine, where they publicly spray large tear gas canisters at Jews, and the reason they are used at Columbia University is to discourage students from continuing to protest.
What activities have the American Jewish community done to stop the genocide of the Zionist regime in Gaza?
We tried to dispel the lies spread in the Jewish community through American and Zionist news and propaganda that the Arabs are trying to kill the Jews and that the Zionist regime needs to protect We have to deny ourselves by publishing messages and say that these are not true and we are definitely not allowed to have the country for ourselves. That is why we say that this is not Judaism. We hope to encourage people not to be intimidated by anti-Semitism and to understand that it is not anti-Semitism. In Judaism, we are not allowed to have sovereignty for ourselves, we are not allowed to have a country, and we are definitely not allowed to kill and steal the land. So we are doing our best to raise awareness and encourage people to protest.
We do not have television in the Jewish community and this is because of moral issues in our community. The Zionists own all the media and the Jews bombard the world any way they want with their publications and anything you can think of. They have access to public domain and receive government support to continuously spread their message and scaremonger that Arabs and Muslims are trying to kill us. Although in isolated Jewish communities, we don’t have television and radio and only have our own publications, we are bombarded with information so that the message comes into our communities and people begin to receive that message as a fact that the Arabs and Muslims want the Jews. kill and the Zionists are protecting themselves.
While surprisingly what they are doing to the Jewish people and beating them does not come out as information and news. So we have to get the message out and we can’t just go out all day and spread this stuff because the Zionists are going to pull the police and say you published an illegal letter. So we spend nights and tirelessly talk for hours with rabbis and students to spread letters from community to community and get the message out that the Zionists are fake news. We tirelessly perform activities in 24 hours. We want the world to wake up and see what is happening in Gaza and for politicians to support it. Our community is proud to at least get the message out as far as it can, including even going in front of the White House!
Given the nationwide demonstrations on American campuses in support of Palestine, you’d think we’d see Are we creating a wave of anti-Zionism in the world and even in Western countries? And what are the characteristics of this movement?
Zionism is built on the distortion and presentation of an induced, insidious and violent narrative that they are Jews and there are those in Palestine who hate Jews; This is their story! So people automatically feel sympathy for what Hitler allegedly did to the Jews. Hence, the first thing that comes to one’s mind is that terrible things have happened to them and they should be supported. This is what has happened for the last 76 years.
But there are intelligent and aware people who stand up against this and may commit a social suicide, i.e. endanger their position in the society and the society and lose the whole environment. So someone stands up and raises his voice for Palestine and rejects Zionism. They may lose society and be ostracized. As things stand, a person invests tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars in college to get a PHD or any other degree. Therefore, if they are labeled with anti-Semitism, they can take control of their lives.
Now what is happening in Gaza is very brutal, killing is happening minute by minute. This is what led the students to decide and be prepared to lose their lives and their safe environment and stand up and protest. Many people cover their faces because they take pictures of them and publish them along with personal information, mobile phones, etc. on the Internet, which is a part of character assassination of these people. When you go to these protests in colleges and universities, many times they come out with masks and others make them feel bad, but still hundreds of thousands of students participate in the movement. There are definitely millions of people out there protesting with students every week and growing more and more. I think that we are in a world and a kind of situation where we will be able to stand against the Zionists.
My grandmother is from Palestine. My grandfather is from Hungary and he married her when he came to Palestine. My grandmother is still alive and tells stories from that time that she had a good relationship with her Palestinian and Muslim neighbors and there were no problems at all until the Zionists came and tried to take the land. There were no problems until then. After 1967, my grandfather had unfortunate experiences and said that he could not live under the occupation and left there.
We show you pictures of how we used to live together and there was never any problem in coexistence. We obviously have a different religion but there was no problem at all. We dressed differently, there was no problem and we helped each other. Life in Palestine was like this. Suddenly the Zionists came and said that we want to protect you. What is protection? Soldiers came to the streets with guns; Which country do you see that is always in a state of war and always standing with arms? This is the community they created. They created hatred to make this so-called heaven for the Jews. A paradise where soldiers always stand with guns and anyone carrying something on their shoulder everyone thinks it’s a bomb. So this is not consistent with common sense.
This community is still there. My grandmother is one of 14 people in a large family, all of whom are anti-Zionist. The whole society is still very strongly against the occupation. They are in occupied Palestine Jerusalem and still live there. They have Palestinian flags and hold them up when the police come to take them down, and there is a conflict with the Zionist police over this issue.
This is an ongoing phenomenon and the way the Jewish people live in Palestine. They demonstrate and stand together; This is a demonstration in the streets of Palestine. You see that while the women don’t go out to protest, their husbands and children are beaten and they have the Palestinian flag in their hands, and this shows a normal daily occurrence there.
My message is that we love the people of Gaza. They need to hear and know that Jews all over the world are totally against the occupation. Every time we hear about another crime that happens against them, we are deeply saddened. Rabbi Rosenberg spoke about his grandmother and grandfather. I was a companion with his grandfather, he was a great man and a great rabbi. He spoke with great sadness about Deir Yassin, he spoke about the massacre that took place in Palestine and against the Palestinian people.
