Ask JTF for Sunday June 12, 2011
Gimatria:
Shavua Tov, Chaim,
Can you tell the story about the time Arafat had an argument with the Jordanian minister and solved it like a true muslim? Is it true that he drank the blood of his fellow murdered arab?
About Anthony Weiner - what a shocker. As they "Sof Ganav Le'tliyah" - Who is a bigger pervert, Spitzer or Weeny?
Why is incest so common in the arab world?
Which European country will be the first to officially become an islamic republic? When do you foresee it happening?
The filthy Nazi BBC has that one news presenter, Mishal Hussein - any relation to Saddam or Barack? Would you say she's an "objective reporter"? Can you paraphrase a typical Mishal Hussein presentation on Israel?
Kol Tuv, Chaim
PS - Who is uglier, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, or Ruth Messinger?
BritishSword:
Greeting Chaim
I'd like to deal with Rastafarianism and the possible threat this religion represents.
Rastas claim that they are the real Children of Israel. The Rastafari seek to validate a link between Ethiopia and Israel, pointing to the title Lion of Judah, and their goal is to repatriate to Mount Zion, that is, Africa. Rasta reggae is peppered with references to Zion; among the best-known examples are the Bob Marley songs Zion Train" and "Iron Lion Zion.
Beta Israel black Jews have lived in Ethiopia for centuries, disconnected from the rest of Judaism; their existence has given some impetus to Rastafari, as they feel it validates their assertion that Ethiopia is Zion.
So basically Ethiopia is the promised land, its capital is New Jerusalem and the Rastas I've met have reffered to it as the cradle of civilisation. I'm going to pause to let you comment here as I KNOW you will have something juicy to say about that.
----------
Rasta is an afrocentric religion. Its adherents see the white race as Babylon filled with corruption and sin and responsible for everything from slavery to gum disease. They also claim that while they follow the christian belief, they believe the new testament has been corrupted by Babylon. Where have we heard this before?
---------
Haile Selassie I was the Emperor of Ethiopia from 1930 to 1974. Rastas claim that he is the resurrected manifestation of Jesus (Yahshua) Christ and therefore an incarnation of G-d onto the Earth. They also claim that he will lead the righteous into creating a perfect world.
Regarding the death of Haile Selassie I, Rastafari do not accept that God could die and some thus insist that Selassie's 1975 reported death was a hoax. It is also claimed that he entered the monastery and will return to liberate his followers and vanquish all evil, restoring his creation.
For Rastafari, Haile Selassie remains their G-d and their King. They see Selassie as being worthy of worship.
I think this is dangerous nonsense. I mean our two faiths have their differences here but I think we can agree that when the messiah comes it will be action time and the world will be put to rights. He will divide the sheep and goat nations and burn the wicked with unquenchable fire. He won't pretend to die and hide in a monastery.
Again your comments please.
-----------
To finish off. No wonder I had the devil of a time convincing rastas to support Israel, if this is what they believe. Rastafarianism is not Islam but I see similar patterns and dangerous levels of sympathy from a so called christian offshoot. What is your assessment of the threat level?
Vive La Israel
The real Israel.
Lewinsky Stinks, Dr. Brennan Rocks:
Shalom Chaim,
Here are my questions for the week.
1: I want you to reply to a Nazi weasel argument. When challenged, the Nazi Alex Jones and other "truthers" who blame Israel for 9/11 always state something like "We are not blaming all Jews for 9/11, only Ariel Sharon and the inner clique of his Likud Party. You don't like Sharon either, neither do we." Obviously that is a bunch of lying Nazi taqqiyah but please give your response to it anyway.
2: How come Israel is the only country aside from the actual guilty one of Saudi Arabia that is ever blamed for 9/11? I mean, if you want to blame someone besides the actual perpetrators, why not accuse an evil nation like China, Russia, North Korea, etc. that would conceivably have motive?
3: Do you think that record flooding in California and record drought/wildfires in Arizona/New Mexico is judgment from Hashem, and/or a sign that we are moving toward the end of days?
4: I have an idea for you to ponder: since you are not currently allowed in your birthright homeland have you ever considered making "aliyah", at least temporarily, to Serbia? Would Serbia admit you? Although Serbia has an evil, self-hating Bolshevik government that turns in its greatest heroes to the Hague, average Serbs are probably a good deal more sane than average Jews and conceivably would be open to the Kahanist message. Would you ever consider learning Serbo-Croatian? Belgrade has a Jewish community, so you would be able to eat kashrut. If Serbia were to become Kahanist, it could become a valuable base of operations for promoting Kahanism in Israel. What do you think about this?
G-d bless you, YSTC
ItalianZionist:
Just wanted to say that I made friends with some wealthy Iranian Jews in Great Neck. I'm having them spread the word in their community to help you build homes for the Jews in Judea and Samaria.
