Fwd: Kiryas Joel Mayor Sticks His Nose Into Mideast Peace Effort. Are they the Authentic Jewish Voice?

bs"d

Will anyone that is a representative of authentic Orthodox Jewry step up to the plate to refute Mayor Wieder of Kiryas Yoel Satmer please????

I suppose it's easy enough to ignore all the miracles that happened in 1967 up to the present regarding the number of casualties in relation  to the number of Kassam rockets being sent our way.  It's easy to disregard Fatah and Hamas close affiliation with Nazi Germany.. 

If we go in happenstance with Hashem then Hashem chas vechalila will treat us the same way.

I would challenge Mayor Wieder to backup this statement 

"In fact, after the destruction of Israel in 69 CE, Jews were commanded to await divine redemption and prohibited from conquering the land."  Where in the Torah does it say this????

This statement is fallacious as well as his claim to being a Torah True Jew.  Everything Mayor Wieder says in this letter is against the Torah and an annulment of the Covenant between Hashem and the the children of Avrohom Yitchok and Yaakov who promises Eretz Yisroel as an EVERLASTING inheritance. Apparently Mayor Wieder doesn't pay much attention to these words in his davening.  He totally disregards Torah Shebichtav.  His words and intention are the opposite of truth and good.

Therefore, he is in good company with Obama who decided that the Land of Israel is for the seed of Abraham alone, based  apparently on the "truth".

The letter was written in reaction to the anti-Obama rhetoric of some religious pro-settler organizations, which have become increasingly vocal in recent weeks as the Obama administration continues to push the Israeli government to curb settlement growth in the West Bank as a prerequisite for a peace settlement. Wieder's letter reads in part, "Life is Judaism's most precious commodity; its preservation and the prevention of bloodshed are its more central tenet. When life is in jeopardy all commandments that guide Jewish life must be set aside in order to preserve human life. My heart therefore aches over the endless loss of innocent life just to hold on to lands inhabited by one's enemies. I therefore deeply respect and support you and pray that divine providence guides your every move. "Some Israeli politicians resist relinquishing any part of the holy land, claiming religious prohibitions. This is wholly fallacious! In fact, after the destruction of Israel in 69 CE, Jews were commanded to await divine redemption and prohibited from conquering the land. To this day Jews yearn and pray for the divinely inspired return to Jerusalem... The modern State of Israel stands in contravention of the Almighty's prohibition. Its effort to cloak itself in religion as a means of continuing the contravention of the Almighty is laughable if it weren't so sad." "This important letter comes at a time when many Jews in our community are upset over the militant Zionist groups who appear to be representing Orthodox Jews," said Rabbi Dovid Shlome Eckstein, a rabbi representing the organization True Torah Jews and a close associate of Mr. Wieder. "Our mayor is doing his job in expressing our sentiments, and we hope the President gets the message."
