A Pope a Statue a Crime !

Two Israeli soldiers have been jailed for desecrating a large Crucifix of Jesus in southern Lebanon. While their actions may be deemed inappropriate, if not insensitive, they should certainly not incur a prison sentence for an offence that would normally result in a fine and a slap on the wrist anywhere in the world today.

This is clearly a miscarriage of justice and a politically motivated outcome meant to assuage the moral outrage of the gentile world. In the meantime, Pope Leo takes every opportunity to defame the Jewish State and its involvement in Lebanon and the war with Iran, while giving succour to Hamas and its Gazan supporters.

The decision by Israeli authorities to impose a jail sentence has abetted those who would demonise Jews and scapegoat the State of Israel. This is sheer madness, reflecting a ghetto mentality still seeking to appease gentile sensitivities, which contributes to the desire to annihilate Jews and their State.

Israel has a duty of care for the likes of these two Jewish boys, and rather than throwing them in jail should be speaking on their behalf and for every Jew that has been slaughtered in the name of Jesus Christ over the last 2,000 years. It’s time the Jewish State spoke the truth to gentile power, whether it be a woke Pope sitting in the Vatican or its political leaders exposing the Big Lies fermented by the very people who propagate those lies. Not one day these boys spend in Jail will placate the vindictive behaviour of these anti-Semites.

Hatred of the Jew cannot be appeased by the indifference and apathy of the kind that sacrifices Jews in the hope that the world will think kindly of us. They won’t, and they never have.

Release those young men now and restore them to active duty.

Yosef Yigal Drever and Sylvia Drever co-founded Achdut HaLev in 2006 to reach out to the Jewish community's around the world providing support in learning Torah and promoting the 'Return of the Jewish people to the Land of Israel.' Yosef Yigal made Aliya in 2014 while Sylvia his wife is an Israeli. In late 2014 Achdut HaLev concentrated all its resources towards Aliya and the rebuilding of Eretz Yisrael. Excluding none and embracing all. The commandment to settle the Land of Israel is equal in importance to all the Torah Commandments all together: (Sifri Deut 12:29)
