Pink Floyd--Shove It!
In the Light of the Jewish Idea of Rabbi Meir Kahane
by Nachum Shifren
Those of you familiar with Rabbi Kahane's master treatise, "Artists and
Imbeciles" will be able to go back to learning Torah, since this column
will present concepts learned there. For the rest of our friends,
know one fact about the insane Nazis of Pink Floyd: they only become
Middle East activists if there's a chance more Jews can be killed as a
result of their activism.
And so, Roger Waters, of the "group" Pink Floyd-- humanitarian, man of
peace, philosopher, and expert in all matters amounting to zilch-- was
moved to offer the latest "korban" on the alter of shalom: "We need this
generation of Israelis to tear down walls and make peace."
Being true to his sick ideology, he decided to "take his act on the
road" and spray paint some graffiti on the Great Wall surrounding
Jerusalem. Not that this pork (no pun) barrel project does anything to
dissuade the murderers from killing Jews (it only inconveniences them),
but what Waters finds so objectionable is that THERE IS THE POTENTIAL OF
SAVING JEWISH LIVES.
What's even more painful here, is that a record 50, 000 Israelis went to
see this malevolent individual rant and rave about peace efforts. Well,
"our" guys were obviously not at the concert, otherwise Waters would
have been introduced to the Hebrew concept of "moridim v'lo maalim" ( no
breaks for a chump like you, Waters). More of interest than the Pink
Floyd bilge being pumped into young Jewish skulls, is certainly the
question: What are all those Israelis doing paying $ 75 (that's over 300
shekels!) to indulge in anti-Semitic barrages? If this were truly a
Jewish country, he would have been tarred and feathered- and stuck to
his drying graffiti.
We leave you with this thought: The entire country of Israel is set to
go to war over ONE JEW! Only ONE! Where were these do-gooders when Rabbi
Kahane was spit upon, hit with rocks and tomatoes, banned from the
Knesset, ordered to prison for "administrative detention", boycotted by
the entire Jewish establishment, had his political party labeled a
"terrorist" group, and on and on....Why? Because it's so much simpler to
go to war than to admit that you're wrong, that your fundamental grasp
of Judaism is based on a lie and has nothing to do with the Jewish
religion and philosophy. It's so sad, really. It doesn't need to be so.
We truly hope this Jew is rescued and the family relieved of its
anguish. But what will we say to the next family, and the next after
that.....answer: KAHANE WAS RIGHT! Let us stop our denial and illusions,
get real Jewish leaders that truly care about each individual Jew and
will go the extra mile to cut off the hand of anyone trying to harm us!!
May the Righteous Redeemer come speedily in our days, regardless of our
merits.
