ZIONISM:

THE ENEMY OF

THE JEWISH PEOPLE

ZIONIST PROPAGANDA -- clever, sustained, well-financed --

has succeeded in misleading many Americans, Jew and non-Jews alike.

We, as Jews, therefore find it necessary to declare solemnly:

        (1) Jews do not need a state of their own in our time. The very establishment of such a modern "Jewish" state is a grave violation of Jewish tradition and law, as expressed in the Talmud. The greatest rabbis of the past two Jewish generations have condemned Zionism since its inception as a complete falsfication of Judaism. Zionism aims at uprooting Jews in countries throughout the world in order to find immigrants for its nationalistic and militaristic state which usurps, without any justification, the holy name of Israel. Zionism has always endeavored to estrange the Jews from their observance of the laws of their faith and has offered instead the twin curses of athiesm and National Socialism.

        (2) Jews are enjoined by their religious laws to be loyal to the country which they are citizens.        The laws of the Torah are binding upon all jews. Torah-true Jews wish to live in peace and harmony with their neighbors and with the community of nations. They deplore acts and policies of violence, carried out by those who -- misusing the name of Israel -- have substituted the ideal of chauvinistic nationalism for the Torah, the eternal divinely bestowed inheritence of the Jewish people.

        (3) Jews, who are loyal to their faith and tradition, have nothing to do with Zionist sponsored boycotts against individual enterprises or against entire nations. Zionist protests against alleged conditions in certain countries are not meant to bring about positive changes but rather to aggravate conditions there to the point where Jews will be forced to leave, presumably for the Zionist state.

ZIONIST POLITICANS AND THEIR FELLOW TRAVELERS DO NOT SPEAK FOR THE JEWISH PEOPLE: Indeed, the Zionist conspiracy against Jewish tradition and law makes Zionism--and all its activities and entities--the archenemy of the Jewish people today.
