A Time For Barzel (audio-visual presentation)


The time is long overdue for Jews in the diaspora to defend other Jews. For tough Jewish vigilante groups to roam the streets and make Jew-haters wish that they never saw a Jew. It matters not whether we speak of Paris, Crown Heights, or Australia. The only language these cretins understand is the language of Jewish iron and violence. Broken bones and fractured skulls will make excellent teaching tools for these ghouls.

Rabbi Meir Kahane: My Rebbe (That I Never Met)

Contemporary "pop popularity" aside, despite the presence of "Kahane Tzadak" slogans and stickers plastered on walls throughout the country, the vast majority of respectable "right-wing" Jews opposed Rabbi Kahane during his lifetime. Many condemned him. Very few synagogues gave him a pulpit to speak, even rarer were those individuals with influence who courageously supported him. During his lifetime, mainstream Jews viewed him as a pariah. This is my portrait of a genuine Jewish hero, first published in "The Jewish Press" in 2014:  http://www.jewishpress.com/indepth/columns/fuchs-focus/rabbi-meir-kahane-my-rebbe-that-i-never-met/2014/11/10/

Meir Weinstein, “JDL Canada”, and the Contemporary Mythos: Part I


If Meir Weinstein would have just stayed out of a fight he knows nothing about, I would have refrained from penning this piece. If he would have stuck to his little charade in Canada, selling the image of Jewish self-defense rather than implementing it, I would have left him alone. But as I’ve noted before, don’t poke the bull again and again. Don’t lie about good Jews. Don't shame other Jews on Facebook. So now I am forced to open the book.

Several weeks ago, I was forced to call out a certain Yisrael Medad for his outrageous behavior on social media. I wrote:

“Yisrael Medad has the gall to attack a good Jew who was once ensnared in the church, and who in a teshuva process, now dedicates his every free moment to protecting Jews from the missionary menace, based upon his knowledge of such groups. We know what the Torah says about one who would denigrate a Jew for past mistakes. But what of Medad's ongoing sin of being a stumbling block for the Jewish people? The same can be said for others like David "Haivri" Axelrod and the growing army of small Jews who help missionaries gain a foothold in Israel. What a shameful person. Cry for yourself, Yisrael. Cry for Am Yisrael.”

And now the same can be said for the head of the supposed “JDL Canada” (more like Bnai Brith Canada) for calling out the same individual. I’m not going to mince words. Shame on both men for their outrageous behavior. Let me not dance around the bush. They are speaking about my dear friend Moshe Schwartz, who dedicates his life to combatting the missionary threat in Israel. As anyone who knows Moshe Schwartz will attest on so many occasions he has given the shirt off his back to another Jew or opened his home indefinitely. So, this blood libel against a good Jew who has been open about his distant past where he was ensnared with the church, and fights today with every fiber of his being against the missionary menace is the definition of disgraceful. The sin of reminding a penitent of his past is egregious. 

Moshe Schwartz is one of the administrators of “The Judean Hammer” Facebook page and he knows what he’s talking about on these critical matters. There is a reason I installed him in this role. His integrity, his teshuvah, and his knowledge. Larger anti-missionary organizations often use the expertise of baalei teshuva who fled the snare of church, and now use their expertise to save Jewish souls and alert the public. And to reiterate, Moshe is an open book on such issues and his teshuva process is apparent to anyone who knows what fuels him.

Back to Weinstein. JDL Canada is a joke and a disgrace to anyone who reveres Rabbi Kahane. Meir Weinstein knows little of Rabbi Kahane’s Torah, as exhibited by his support of the missionaries of CUFI, and his attacks on other Jews who fight the enemy. Yet he defends people like David “Haivri” Axelrod in Israel who associates and works with known missionaries and evangelical predators. He does this because JDL Canada is an unprincipled hasbara organization which has little to do with Jewish self-defense. That is precisely why they have such a good reputation in Canada and get along well with the Bnai Brith. When a JDL gets along with the Bnai Brith it speaks volumes about the former.

As far as self-defense, every Canadian I know who cares about Jewish self-defense attests to the joke of JDL Canada. Their patrols are a joke, and largely non-existent. No one I spoke with could remember any examples of them protecting Jews. At least Bnai Brith Canada will send a clean-up crew to erase the swastika from your door after 24 hours.

But it is Weinstein’s shameful treatment of a good Jew that is most telling. Carefully watch any exchange on FB and you will see that he cannot answer questions, he defends the wrong people, and attacks the few good men and women who fight the honest fight.

JDL Canada. Flag waving and Hatikvah. Barbeques and baseball. V’zehu. One Kahanist who knew Meir years ago in Israel noted that Weinstein was noted for one thing. He consistently fled from the police when the fire got hot. Kind of like this altercation where two chayas (it appears there were two who threw down, G-d bless them) jumped into the fray, but a certain someone stands there waving his flag. Bring it on Meir. You brought it upon yourself. Now watch another Canadian idiot jump in. Just like Pavlov's dog but with less intellect and inferior manners.

For those who doubt my reverence for authentic JDL ideals, check out this recent post:

The Judean Hammer Podcast-Hasbara Posers (audio)

"I'm a big boy."
Boycott Sears? Great! But how about boycotting Amazon, Ebay, Walmart, and all the other big boys who continue to sell the same "Free Palestine!" T-shirts. Or is this too much to ask of disingenuous hasbara groups? These hypocrites should stop celebrating their supposed victory and continue to fight the other sellers. Or they can shut their mouths.

Here's a little advice. Those who claim to be a defense organization should stick to the basics. Bricks and bats in defense of Jews. Because the Bnai Brith will certainly not protect Jews. Too many bowling leagues, interfaith cook-outs, and tweets to attend to. And a word of advice: if your JDL charter is "good" with the local Bnai Brith, something is wrong.

The New Peace Movements Exposed

Now featured in "The Jewish Press": http://www.jewishpress.com/indepth/columns/fuchs-focus/the-new-peace-movements-exposed/2017/05/30/

It is time once again, G-d help me! to expose the contrived foolishness of the new Jewish "peace movements", those obnoxious groups comprised of bored liberal Anglo-Jews with too much time on their hands. Ironically, the activism of many of these individuals is a definite consequence in some cases of the supposed “exploitative capitalism” many of them rail against. Yet foolishness often comes to those with the sense that one has time on his hands, or with those who harbor the notion of a unique message or teaching they must offer the world. Narcissism and nonsense often mate.
An amalgam of names: “Alternative Action”, LAVI, The Home, and a handful of others come to mind. The oft mentioned calls for a “New Generation” to have a “New Conversation”. They often overlap with one another and engage in joint projects. And despite their insistence that they are not the peace industry, they are precisely that. The names may vary, as do their respective platforms, but they are birds of one feather.
The difference is that these peaceniks have another delusion. Unlike the “two-state suicide” camp of the classical left, these groups maintain another lunacy. The idea that we can coexist in one state with those who wish to destroy us, if we allow the other side (the Arabs or Muslims) to experience “their own personal narrative”. As they see it, if we abandon our “white, western, identify” and identify with a greater “Semitic” sense of self.
Here are some keys words which make up the skeletons of their nonsensical ideologies:
1.    “Narrative”- Generally refers to the moral relativism of identifying and empathizing with the Arab sense of Jewish wrong-doing. Often such people apologize for Arab violence and blame it on western interference.
2.    Indigenous- A cursory definition of a term I have discussed elsewhere and will not harp on. A selective interpretation of this nonsense term. Unlike others, these people self-identify as such but also grant the same status to Arabs. Hence the need to insist that we can coexist. Unlike other such pro-Israel activists, these activists add stupidity to silly sociology which believes in such a notion, which has as much validity as phrenology.
3.    Conversation- The fantastical belief that talking with select, token, polite Arabs and drinking coffee will solve real problems, which as the late Rabbi Meir Kahane always noted correctly were “immutable” problems.
4.    Western-The sense that the west is evil and everything “middle eastern” is wonderful. Of course, Arab/Islamic barbarism worldwide must be minimized and ignored, and is rarely addressed honestly.  So, these liberals must ignore genital mutilation, stoning’s, throwing homosexuals from roofs, castration, sexual slavery, classical slavery, honor killings, martyrdom. Once again, a classic mirroring of western liberalism in our contemporary period.
5.    Semitic Movement-The racial obsession and self-loathing which requires a magical belief in a shared “race”. According to this belief, since we are both Semites we must get along.
6.    Colonial- The enduring Arab jihad be damned. Western colonialism is the greatest evil. The Arabs don’t really hate us. The West creates this hate. The massacres of Jews in the 20’s and 30’s up to and including the barbarism of today has no place in their conversation. Not to mention the horror of dhimmitude since the times of Mohamed.
A marriage of magical non-intellectual thinking, pseudo-scientific idiocy, and liberal naivete. The idea that if we drink Turkish coffee with Salam, suddenly real grievances will disappear. The Jews of pre-pogrom 1929 Hebron also enjoyed the company of some of their neighbors. Until one day. That is why these groups ignore, minimize, or apologize for Arab/Islamic barbarism. It is the fault of the “WEST”, never the Amalekites on this side of the pond who detonate themselves on buses in our cities.
The new peace fools are on the move. This is the inevitable result when self-appointed gurus, peddle corrupt notions of justice to the deluded masses. The irony is that these silly Jewish indigenous rights advocates are poster children for western liberalism. Their self-identification is premised on the guilt-ridden liberal's creation of the notion of indigeneity (a false concept) which fuels multicultural reverse discrimination. And their obsession with peace, with those who only understand terror, is yet another example of the distorted liberal mindset.
In a recent Facebook post, I noted that the pseudo-babble of these "Alternative Peace" Jewish Indigenous activists often sounds like this:
"The paradigm of intertribal aggression is a symptom of retrograde ionization of the spherical schemas of our oppression. Because of colonial maladaptive dystopia deprivation, the oppressed class is subjugated beneath the heel of capitalism's boot, and thus lashes out to his/her/it's equally exploited peers in a version of cosmic counter-maneuvering to avoid the real problems. Squares are only squares because the white man told us they were. By deconstructing the false narrative of Eurocentric privilege, squares can become round, and round can also be triangular. By allowing my understanding of cosmological interpretation to allow yours to contradict mine, our lives take on meaning and we become one. When Hassan says “Itbach El Yahud”, we Jews need to process his feelings through his prism of active consciousness, and thus reinterpret perceived aggression as a symptom of our own subjugation by Europeans. By rejecting European fruit and replacing them with majul dates and halva, we redeem the shared narrative of Semitic symbiosis and indigenous hegemony.”
Silliness aside, to my Caucasian Ashkenazi colonized ear, they sound precisely like this.
These “new peace” activists may think they are "raging against the machine", but in truth they are an amalgam of "fools on parade". But the college campuses are inundated with such people, and these are their target audiences. The kinds of people who may try to reconcile their Jewish identify in a liberal, progressive, manner which satisfies their essential beliefs. So, the obligation is to expose these groups and show the un-Jewish nature of these groups. Far from being eastern, they are naked byproducts of the excesses of western liberalism, married to the soft-boiled science of morally relativistic sociology.
Some things you may not know:
·         On the Facebook page of one Yehuda HaKohen, a self-styled Jewish indigenous rights activist involved with the “Alternative Action” peace movement he empathized with the Arab nakba by noting: I’m not interested in belittling anyone’s pain but I think the message of Naqba Day would be a lot more powerful and easier for Israelis to empathize with if it didn’t occur each year on the [solar] date of our anti-colonialist victory against England. Why not mark the date a Palestinian community was destroyed or the day Israel decided you aren’t coming back? By marking the date the British left and the Jews declared independence, you make it easy for us to believe that this is more about us and less about you (and some of us really don’t need such assistance).

  • ·         (Minute 14:05) "And Palestinians are caught in the middle of all this. They're obviously victims of this, too."
  • ·         (Minute 17:00) "There's a blind spot. We do have a blind spot when it comes to Palestinians. We're completely insensitive to their pain. It's true."

  • ·         (Minute 1:25:34)"The Palestinian narrative is also true,"
  • ·         (Minute 1:25:55) "In terms of values, I agree with 90% of what the SJP is saying."
  • ·         (Minute 1:30:45) "They are people who are legitimately experiencing an occupation and want to resist it, and I as a human being can't blame them."

·         (Minute 1:36:40) "I live in Beit El..And there's a fence around Beit El, and I don't see any reason for that fence."
Alternative Action’s perspective on peace explains much: “Alternative Action views conflict between the Jewish people and other natives of the Middle East as an unnatural situation brought about by external forces. Because the closest people in the world to the Jews are the other indigenous peoples of our region, we strive for unity and peace as an ideal stemming from our belief that the Semitic peoples are brothers bonded together by common culture, ancestry and values.”
Some other fun facts to know:
  • ·         LAVI and others support the racist thugs of the BLM movement who essentially function as a black KKK in America.
  • ·         Alternative Action praised Fidel Castro as a great man when he died. A veritable butcher of innocents, and they saw fit to praise him!

I have opined on the threat of Arab nationalism and Islam many times before. And yet the examples of barbarism never end. Though his favorite meal is Jewish blood, the Arab/Islamic Amalekites will spill the blood of anything they deem antagonistic to sharia law. Including British school-children at an Ariana pop concert in Manchester. No one is safe, not even those clueless European anti-Semites who favor the savage over the Jew, and who sympathize with the mythical "Arab plight". We are dealing with the epitome of evil, a corruption so thorough and complete it usually negates the possibility for rehabilitation. This is the lesson of Amalek. Deal with evil totally and destroy it, or be totally consumed by the very same force you refused to recognize.
  • Tragically, many mainstream, respectable right-wing hasbara personalities are flirting with these movements. When violence strikes Israel, such types will step away for a time, but their willingness to attend some of these events and give credence to these organizations and people, is a troubling example of the fickle nature of people. And of the continued inability of Jews to face ugly truths.

These new groups love hashtags because it appeals to millennials who often see these groups as an avenue to express their Judaism, in a manner which satisfies their liberal proclivities. So, for any free-thinking liberals, here are a few hashtags of my own. They contain essential truths which Jewish history has shown time and time again.

Rabbi Meir Kahane: My Rebbe (That I Never Met)


Originally featured in The Jewish Press

“The Arabs are a cancer in our midst. And you don't coexist with a cancer. A cancer you either cut out, and throw out, or you die.”- (Rabbi Meir Kahane, on 60 Minutes)

"A chacham is superior to a prophet."- (Talmud: Bava Batra 12a)

Twenty-four years ago, El Sayyid Nosair (yemach shmo v'zichro) shot Rabbi Meir David Kahane (HY'D) in a Manhattan hotel, following the Rabbi's lecture to an American audience about the need for emergency aliyah. I remember that terrible evening with the clarity that only real nightmares attain. I was in eighth grade, and I was watching WWOR's 10 o'clock news segment on Channel 9. The news anchor, Rolland Smith, opened the broadcast with the mind-numbing news that Rabbi Kahane was shot by an Arab, and that he was clinging to life. A short time later, we received the grim news; Rabbi Kahane was dead.

Disbelief. Utter shock. I knew that someone special was stolen from the Jewish people. As early as second-grade, I started reading Rabbi Kahane's articles in The Jewish Press every Friday night. It was a Shabbos routine. While I'm sure I missed many of the finer points of the articles, young as I was; I could discern that there was something unique about the man. His writing was sharp, witty, and it cut like a scalpel. Certainly, I had seen the Rabbi's many “confrontations” on television, and there was a definite face to this remarkable man who behaved in a manner so unlike most contemporary Jews. He was fearless, and you instantly recognized that here was a Jew who truly didn't give a damn “what the goyim thought.” No apologies. Dignity and self-respect.

These memories remained with me, and in my late teens I studied Rabbi Kahane's other written works. The first book that I read was “Never Again.” It changed me forever. In time, I became connected with those who were fortunate to know Rabbi Kahane personally, and had assisted him in his life's work to save Am Yisroel.“To save them from themselves,” as he so often noted.

Justice Denied
Tragically, in one of the most grotesque displays of legal injustice and anti-semitism in American history, Rabbi Kahane's killer was acquitted of the murder charges. It helped that Nosair had the talented but grotesque, self-hating, PLO-supporting, “jew,” William Kunstler as his lawyer. As far as the American government was concerned, they naively assumed that Rabbi Kahane's assassination was an isolated incident and chose to ignore it. Certainly, the murder of a man who was an unmovable obstacle in their path, who constantly fought American pressure on Israel with tooth and nail, was of no concern to them. They were glad to be rid of him. Yet ultimately, they paid a steep price for their inaction, with American blood.

The failure of the American government to investigate the terror network responsible for Rabbi Kahane's murder allowed these same terrorists to slip through the cracks and strengthen their roots in the U.S.  Today, Nosair is sentenced to life imprisonment in America, not for his murder of Rabbi Kahane, but for his role in the first World Trade Center bombing, which could have been averted had the U.S. government been paying attention. And by extension, the horror of 9/11 could possibly have also been prevented, had the U.S. government connected the dots in those early years. The clues were all there.

What Can One Say?
Every year on the anniversary of Rabbi Kahane's assassination, I am inundated with feelings of profound loss, a desire to want to articulate these feelings, and an inability to do so. Much of my frustration stems from the disappointment that I was never fortunate to meet the man in person, though his teachings resonate throughout my core. Another impediment is the general inability (of this author at least) to truly capture Rabbi Kahane's essence in an article. What can one say about the kind of man who will surely not arise again in our lifetime, until the Messiah arrives?

And yet, what can one do? Except perhaps to try to express a little something, pathetic and insufficient as it is, regarding this historically great Jew. This is not a full treatment of this great man, nor a comprehensive analysis of his many accomplishments, contributions, and sacrifices. These are simply a few reflections that I wish to share.

I see Rabbi Kahane as a throwback to the times of the Judges and Prophets. He epitomized the very essence of mesirat nefesh in Judaism, self-sacrifice at the cost of one's life, the acceptance of the Yoke of Heaven, and the willingness to speak the painful truth, no matter the cost. Throughout his adult life, he willingly endured this cost, regardless of consequence. Imprisonment, harassment, confrontation, and eventually his own murder. Rabbi Kahane was a gadol in Torah, but he was also a warrior. A fiery kohen, who was fit to lead Am Yisroel in war. He was a master of the written word, a writer of immense talent, and an orator whose words could generate an internal fire within you, and raise goosebumps on your arms.

Ahavat Yisroel

“The lesson of clear. In the end, for the Jews,  there is no ally except for the Jews.” (R. Meir Kahane, “Never Again”, page 200)

Rabbi Kahane loved Jews with an authentic love. A tough love which compelled him to speak of unpleasant truths which many Jews were unwilling to hear. He understood that at the end of the day, the only one other than Hakadosh Baruch Hu that Jews could count on were other Jews. He had an allergic reaction to the desecration of G-d’s name, and to Jewish pain and suffering. Whenever and wherever Jews were in danger, Rabbi Kahane was there to fight for them. It didn't matter who the enemy was or what his perceived strength was. Nothing would deter him. Not the Godless Soviets who tried to eclipse the soul of Soviet Jewry, not the Neo-nazis and Black Panthers in America, or the Arabs in Israel. Rabbi Kahane faced them all, with his patented chutzpah, wit, and lack of self-concern. And in Eretz Yisroel, the Arabs were truly terrified of him. Like an enraged Shimshon Hagibor, the Arabs feared him, because much like Samson, his strength was an anomaly that they could not understand. It derived from the very personality of this magnificent tzadik. He had their number.

When Rabbi Kahane first formed the JDL in the late 1960's to physically defend Jewish neighborhoods from anti-semitism, the Jewish Establishment condemned his use of violence, even as they chose to ignore the shocking rise of Jew-hatred, particularly within the black community. This was of course during the era of changing neighborhoods, and those Jews who were left behind in hostile regions, were always the poor and the elderly. Rabbi Kahane became their protector.

As the JDL took on the broader issue to fight for the rights of Soviet  Jews behind the Iron Curtain, the Jewish Federations only increased their vitriol and defamation. They viewed him as an embarrassment and and labeled him a violent extremist, whose actions were beyond the Jewish pale. Rabbi Kahane couldn't have cared less. He was a master of media relations and he understood that violence and confrontation were the only things that the media was interested in. Violence made headlines. And violence forced respectable Jewish organizations, the Bnai Brith, the ADL, and others to adopt the cause of Soviet Jewry and a host of other Jewish issues they had chosen to ignore.
In the era of the 1970's, when American Jewry saw their disaffected youth rally for the cause of anything and everything but Judaism, Rabbi Kahane wanted to harness the energy of young Jews. His lectures on campus were a powerful tool for him to reach many alienated Jews who never had someone explain their heritage. Certainly not a Rabbi. His impact on the many young Jews who chose to explore and return to their Judaism, is another legacy of Rabbi Kahane's. There are untold numbers of Ba'alei Teshuva who cite Rabbi Kahane as a major influence on their return to Torah.

A Gadol In Torah
Rabbi Kahane had an encyclopedic knowledge of Torah. He didn't merely obtain semicha as some sort of rabbinical certificate. The study and teaching of Torah were his life, and one of his greatest contributions to Am Yisroel were the sifrei kodesh he authored, which dealt with fundamental Jewish concepts and halachot that no other rabbis addressed. Along with his magnum opus, The Ohr Ha'rayon (The Jewish Idea), he authored several other seforim, such as his fascinating Pirush Hamacabi commentary on the Chumash, and his Al Ha'Emunah, V'all Ha'Geulah. The former Sephardic Chief Rabbi of Israel, Rabbi Mordecai Eliyahu (of blessed memory) often praised Rabbi Kahane's knowledge of Torah, as did Rabbi Moshe Tendler, shlitah, who eulogized Rav Kahane as a gadol in Torah.

A close friend and mentor of mine was very close to Rabbi Kahane. He once opined that Rabbi Kahane's greatest contribution to Am Yisroel was that he was the first to address the real provocative Halachic issues that the State of Israel faces. Certainly, he was, and remains, the only one who actively campaigned for the transfer of all hostile gentiles from Eretz Yisroel, as per the requirements of the Halacha. (Rachavam Zevi's (may G-d avenge his blood) notion of voluntary transfer was ridiculous and impractical. Hence, it had no teeth and it didn't raise the ire of the left.)

Yet Rabbi Kahane was not a one-issue personality, as those who know nothing of his authentic teachings are wont to believe. The Arab question was essential and integral, but merely one component of Rabbi Kahane's comprehensive program for saving Eretz Yisroel and Am Yisroel. His Torah ideology was a sophisticated, intellectual, one which grasped the significance of our miraculous age, and accepted the challenge to turn the State of Israel into a true Torah state in all its many facets. He sought to create an entity that would eventually be a precursor to the coming of Moshiach.

The small minded Jewish leaders and lay people (religious and otherwise) who condemned and smeared him were dishonest when it came to addressing the logical Halachic issues he raised, and worst of all, something that the great man always resented, they were afraid to debate him on these very same issues. They naturally feared him, because intellect and intellectual honesty always trumps ad hominem attacks, and in a debate on Jewish issues, they would have come up short. That is an understatement. He would have dissected them intellectually, as he always did during debates, radio interviews, or question and answer sessions with hostile individuals. The pathetic excuse of not wanting “to dignify his remarks” or “place him in the bounds of intellectual discourse” was aggravating enough when it came from hypocritical secular Jews. But when it came from religious Rabbis who knew that Rabbi Kahane's message was predicated solely on Torah, the refusal to engage in debate was beyond grotesque.

Israel: Inherent Contradictions
When Rabbi Kahane made Aliyah, he addressed the existential Arab threat facing Israel; the problem of demography, and the inherent contradictions between Western Democracy which allows the voting Arab to become a majority one day (even theoretically), and a Jewish State, which by definition must remain Jewish lest it become something else. He was the first to throw the “T” word out, TRANSFER, which raised the blood pressure of the Left, who only tolerate the word when it is applied to Jews as we saw during the Gaza expulsion of Jews. Of course, then they use the ridiculous euphemism, “evacuation”, as if they are saving Jews from a typhoon or an earthquake.

 If Jews are stoned today from atop Har Habayit, it is because Labor and Likud are committed to appeasing Arab terrorists. While the Arabs set Jerusalem on fire, and run over Jewish babies with their new “car intifada,” Netanyahu grovels before the head dog of Jordan to assure him that he needn't worry. Jews will not be able to pray on Har Habayit. If Arabs are ramming their cars into crowds of Jews, crushing our brothers and sisters, it is because Israel's leadership fails to grasp the message. If Arab lynch mobs, armed with knives and deadly weapons, are roaming Jerusalem  to spill Jewish blood, it is only because our leaders are impotent, fearful, and weak. They silenced Rabbi Kahane, and the Jewish people are bleeding for it.

Those who condemned Rabbi Meir Kahane in his lifetime and death contributed to the murder of fellow Jews. Those who labeled him as an un-Jewish aberration will one day have to answer to the Almighty, for the blood that stains their hands. The problem is that mainstream Jewish leadership remains as clueless as it ever was. No respectful politician will broach the subject of transfer. They are too committed to concessions, or the notion of respectability.

Transfer: Remember The Halacha
The Arabs of Israel are a lethal contagion. Their presence guarantees the murder of Jews. And they are growing stronger. Rabbi Kahane was the only one who presented a framework for authentic Jewish leadership that never compromised on the issues, even if it cost him votes, or led to the banning of his party (which it eventually did.)  For as history has shown, the KACH party under Rav Kahane never compromised. As such, they terrified the establishment since their integrity to their values was total. Eventually, they were banned from the Knesset as a racist party, when the grotesque collusion of Labor and Likud joined hands to ban Kach.

Similarly today, the ideological battle must remain pure and unaffected by foreign influences. There are various individuals out there that present a skewed hybrid message, which purports to be “right-wing” but compromises on many issues and the Halacha. Rabbi Kahane's undiluted Torah message is as imperative as it ever was. And the Halacha still hasn't changed regarding the Arabs and other hostile gentile elements that endanger the Jewish body and soul. They still must go! One can choose to minimize the issue, question the current demographic threat, or sidestep the issue, but the theoretical question remains to be answered. Should the Arabs who vote be allowed to undo the Jewish State through legal processes?

As Rabbi Kahane often pointed out, the most dangerous Arabs are the fifth column Arabs within Israel's current “borders,” not the Arabs of the liberated zones which Israel refuses to annex. All too often, these are the same Arabs that float under the radar, until they decide to plow into Jews with their vehicles. And Rabbi Kahane understood intrinsically that the greatest racists, the real ones with prejudice, are the Jewish liberals who think they can assuage Arab wrath and national/religious pride with the niceties of a civilized society, which no Arab/Islamic country has ever offered its citizens. Rabbi Kahane notes:

“As a corollary to the myth that the Jewish State can also be a western democratic one, giving non-jews exactly the kinds of equal rights possessed by Jews, is the delusion of “ coexistence between the Jews and Arabs.” And as part and parcel, of that picture  of smiling, hand-holding Jews and Arabs, is the fiction of Arab loyalty to the State of Israel as transcending their Arabism. Nonsense!” (Revolution or Referendum, page 38)

Transfer. The word the Left  demonized and labeled a racist concept. Yet Rabbi Kahane prophetically noted that the failure to throw out Arabs would eventually lead to the expulsion of Jews from parts of Eretz Yisroel. Rabbi Kahane foresaw the unnatural birth of Oslo. He understood that the failure to transfer Arabs would eventually lead to the expulsion of Jews from their homes to appease the Arabs. Long before that accursed day when Rabin shook Arafat's bloody hand on the lawn of the White House, Rabbi Kahane thundered the terrifying choice that Israel had to make. Kahane or Arafat. We know how history unfolded. Evil men in power committed treason and illegally engaged with the PLO behind the Nation's back. The Erev Rav chose Arafat, and rammed the lunatic decision down the throats of every Jew living in Israel.

What can we do today in Rabbi Kahane's absence? Whatever we can, each of us to the extent of our abilities. Within the reach of our arms. We must continue to spread his message. Rabbi Kahane may be gone, but Chazal have taught us that even in death the righteous live on. Yet, they only live if we give their teachings life. Life beyond the computer keyboard or social media outlets. Rabbi Kahane was no armchair activist. The street was what made him a Jewish gibor. Ideology articulated with action. Without implementing Rabbi Kahane's ideas on the ground, his ideas will remain relegated to books, discussions, and various other outlets for armchair activism.

Read Rabbi Kahane's timeless books, “They Must Go!” and his final say on the matter, “Revolution or Referendum.” Read his Torah works. Internalize the message. Rabbi Kahane wasn't just right when Jewish blood spills freely in the streets. That's a visceral reaction that unfortunately dissipates in time with most people. Use your head. If he's correct today, then he's correct tomorrow. Don't be a bandwagon “Kahanist” or what Rabbi Kahane referred to as a “closet Kahanist”. Let his words resonate across the country, nay, let them thunder across the world. And let the deaf and dumb politicians in our midst hear the message loudly and without any confusion. Rabbi Kahane is still alive.

Arabs out!
