Interesting group...(Neturei Karta) (+ religious divide in Israel?)

An ultra-orthodox group who (no surprises) are feverently anti-Zionist. But they have some pretty interesting things to say about the Palestinians...

quote:
We seek the return of all Palestinian refugees to their rightful land.

We seek to live in the land of Palestine as anti Zionist Jews. To reside as loyal and peaceful Palestinian citizens, in peace and harmony with our Muslim Brethren. Just as our ancestors lived in Palestine for centuries before the usurpations of this tragic century.

Anyway, the reason for this thread - any of the Israelis know anything more about this group? Are these the guys that would stone you for coming onto their patch in Jerusalem on a holy day?

Also I would be interested to hear you views about the religiousness of Israel (esp Jerusalem). My Middle East lecturer keeps refering to a joke (if you can call it a joke!) in Israel that when they are asked if they favour a two-state solution they ask "which states? Israel and a Jewish state?!" refering to the divide in Israel between the religious Jews and the rest. What do you think about the divide and is it actually that bad? Any chance of Jerusalem calling for independence?!?!

No Chance In Hell!

This group has been around for a while now and there intentions and actions speak volumes. They met with and even kissed the anal whore Arafat, a rat that intentionally killed civilians in acts of terror.
They will do anything to end Jewish rule of Israel due to their extremist belief that Jews should not have Israel back until the coming of the messiah.

You also seem to hold a dangerously bias view on Zionism. I don't think you either 1) believe that Zionism is simply a movement aimed at achieving, keeping, and maintaining a unified Jewish homeland where Jews don’t have to worry about persecution by other ruling nations - or 2) you disregard what a 'Zionist' says the movement is all about and believe outside opposing, obviously bias and sometimes outright propagandist perspectives on the matter.

I don’t understand how one can oppose (especially a flaming liberal as yourself) a race/nation/religion that just wants a place to call their own due to a disgusting history they had to endure.

Eh?!

I dont believe I expressed any views whatsoever of Zionism in my post did I?

I posted about that group and the wider topic of the religious divide in Israel (religious Jews, from Jerusalem for example, and secular Jews, from Tel Aviv for example)

As for my views on Zionism, I oppose neo-Zionism (colonising and annexing the West Bank and Gaza) and if I was around at the time I would have opposed Zionsim that led to the creation of Israel. However, I also believe that what happened in the past belongs in the past and therefore today Israel should have the right to exist and live in peace within pre-'67 borders (unless different borders can be agreed between the two sides)

And dont call me a fucking liberal! Liberals to me are right-wing economists so if you want to call me names at least call me something relevant to my beliefs!!!

Oh yea, do you think there is a religious divide in Israel as I described above? And if so, what problems do you see that causing?
