Dear Rabbanim amv"sh
While we are not one of the organizers of this rally as you can see from the flier, we think a Torah msg is something the organizers would welcome and is long overdue.
We are therefore willing to lobby the organizers for Rabbanim to speak at the rally especially if THE RABBANIM. would be interested to speak about our Biblical rights to the LAND OF ISRAEL based on the delineated boundaries specified in the Torah (Parshat Masei) http://www.tanach.org/bamidbar/matot/matots1.htm and perhaps to mention the extended boundaries promised at the Bris Bein Habesarim reaching the Euphrates. This would refute the false claim that Judea and Samaria are Occupied Lands. Today, this false narrative is told as fact to the American people by our own President. It is the narrative of the United Nations and the European Union.. This narrative is what justifies BDS campaign against Israeli products. .
Please take the time to watch the following videos. The messages are too important to ignore.

Lev L'Achim is a well known charity, chesed, kiruv organization in Eretz Yisroel. They surely are involved in many worthwhile projects.
This glossy brochure with a map featured on pages 18 and 19 was widely distributed, probably as inserts in many newspapers, and distributed in schools for the purposes of fundraising and proudly displayed in the Lev L'Achim office. While it is hard to see the original map from this online link because the colors on the map have been whitened, Judea and Samaria were shaded a different green than the rest of Israel and labeled as Arab populated areas!
Obviously, this does not properly reflect Israel's Biblical claim to Judea and Samaria nor to the reality of 2008 which is 40 years after 1967 war when Israel reclaimed all of Jerusalem and Judea and Samaria. By 2008, many Jewish settlements existed in Judea and Samaria. Lev L'achim for whatever reason chose to ignore their existence..
Where are the Lev L'Achim offices in Judea and Samaria at that time?
I sincerely hope the situation is different today and that the maps of Lev L'Achim does not segregate Judea and Samaria, and the religious Jewish population from the rest of Israel nor do the offices of Lev L'Achim. .
Please note that there are over 30 very prominent Gedoilim, Rabbis, supporters and promoters of Lev LAchim, featured on the back cover of this booklet. In fact Lev L'Achim is the organization that speaks for the ultra Orthodox Rabbanim.
This however, unfortunately serves to add to the false narrative that Judea and Samaria is primarily Arab populated rather than Jewish to hundreds of thousands of their following, caring, Orthodox, right wing families of the Agudath Yisroel persuasion, who look up to the Gedoilim for Jewish Leadership.
As far as I know, there has not been a campaign to correct this wrong impression and the Silence of the Rabbanim continues till today. That is why we are approaching you with this request with a sense of urgency.
The word "Zion" is fundamental to Torah. Zionism is not anti Torah concept. Quite the opposite! Zionism by definition is Torah.
The word Zionism today has a negative connotation to the Chareidi population. This has happened because the false narrative of Zionism has been adopted and internalized by religious Jews. They have accepted the stolen identity, the ones run by an imposters, ,
The Secular Zionists who rejected Torah were false Zionists because by definition Torah comes forth from Zion.
The State of Palestine, the people of Palestine is another false narrative. Judea and Samaria are an integral part of Eretz Yisroel.
Religious Chareidi Jews refuse to differentiate between the religious Zionist who keeps the dream of returning to Zion, the Beit Hamikdash alive and the secular Zionists who rejected the Torah yet dreamed of being a light unto the Nations. To their credit they understood Israel's role in the Universe. Did they truly understand that to return to Zion means to return to the Kingdom of David where Jerusalem and the Holy Temple will be The Place where the Nations will stream and where the truth of Torah, justice and charity will go forth from Zion? For that they needed to unite with their Chareidi Torah observing brothers.
Unfortunately they rejected the Torah's commandments and failed to differentiate between Holiness and the profane a necessary component of the Holy Temple. They unfortunately misrepresent authentic Zionism and in this way Zionism became associated with the profane and something to reject.
Zionism must be reclaimed. There is no such thing as the illegal occupation
This false impression must be fixed as per the words of Tsafrir Ronen who was brought up on a left wing kibbutz but speaks like a Rav in spite of his secular upbringing.
Therefore, please watch the French Rav and the other secular but proud Jew from Austrailia linked above. Thank you and please reconsider your Silence regarding Israel's rightful claim against the illegal Occupiers aka Palestinians. This in turn will silence the BDS movement against Israel as well. KT
