Death by Government
Jewish Holocaust Victims Were Reincarnated Sinners
This would also explain the coma that possesses the American sheeple.
ISRAEL'S leading political rabbi was condemned by millions of people
yesterday after claiming that the victims of the Holocaust were reincarnated
Jewish sinners who had to die to atone for their misdeeds.
Rabbi Ovadia Yosef appeared to absolve Hitler of blame for the death of six
million Jews. He upset not only Holocaust survivors but also the Israeli
prime minister, Ehud Barak, whom he called brainless, and the Arabs, whom he
described as "snakes". Rabbi Ovadia said in a sermon on Saturday night that
Hitler's victims were "reincarnations of the souls of sinners, people who
transgressed and did all sorts of things which should not be done. They had
been incarnated in order to atone."
Mr Barak, who lost one set of grandparents in the Holocaust, said that the
remarks "do not befit a rabbi of his stature" and were liable to harm the
memory of those who had died. Tommy Lapid, the head of a small secular party
who escaped the Nazis as a child, called the 79-year-old rabbi "an old fool"
who had given support to Hitler's view that the Jews were sinful.
He said: "He has killed for a second time my father, who died in Mauthausen
concentration camp, and my grandmother who died in the gas chambers of
Auschwitz. If the Austrian nationalist leader, J�rg Haidar, had said this, we
would have declared war on Austria."
The Rabbi's sermon opened up the most painful split in Israeli society:
between the Ashkenazi Jews of European origin and the Sephardim, who come
from the Middle East and north Africa and were generally beyond Hitler's
reach. Rabbi Ovadia is the spiritual leader of the Shas party, which
represents Sephardic Jews and has 17 seats in parliament, giving it the
balance of power between Left and Right.
His weekly sermons, blending an explosive mixture of religion and politics,
are broadcast all over Israel by radio. The sermon was a rebuff to Mr Barak,
who has been hoping for help from Shas to rebuild his defunct ruling
coalition so that he can reopen stalled peace talks. Referring to Mr Barak's
offer to share Jerusalem with the Palestinians as part of peace settlement,
the rabbi said: "Where are his brains? He runs a mad dash after [the
Palestinians]. Is this peace? There should be security for the people of
Israel."
He said to Mr Barak: "You are bringing snakes close to us. Will we make peace
with a snake?" God, he said, regretted every day that he had created the sons
of Ishmael, as the Arabs are known in the Bible. Yasser Abd-Rabbo, the
Palestinian information minister, said: "Every Israeli stands accused of
racism until he condemns this racist and idiot."
The rabbi's defenders said that he was giving a spiritual explanation of the
Holocaust and that European Jews did not have a monopoly on interpreting the
tragedy.
