Merry Christmas and get out of Israel, you blood-drinking Christian vampires
Israel/Palestine Annie Robbins on December 22, 2015 46 Comments

The infamous rightwing Israeli Benzi Gopstein, leader of the Jewish extremist terror group Lehava, is back in the headlines. He wants all the Christians out of Israel, and they can take their holiday with them. On December 17, the Haredi website Kooker published (Hebrew) an article by Gopstein: “Christmas has no place in the Holy Land … Let us remove the vampires before they once again drink our blood” and claimed the establishment of the state of Israel was “the most ringing slap in the face the church ever received” after centuries of failed attempts to eliminate Jews.

This is nothing new, Gopstein is a Kahanist and claims Jewish law mandates the burning of mosques and churches.

Haaretz reports:

Gopstein wrote in the article that he is disturbed by “the fall of the line of defense of the Jewish people against our deadly enemy for hundreds of years – the Christian Church.”

He said the Church had used “the maximum tools at its disposal to destroy the Jewish people,” and that today “the Church has been defeated roundly when the Jewish people has one of the strongest armies in the world and they have no chance any longer of destroying our body….A last hope remains to those vampires and blood suckers – the mission. If Jews cannot be killed, they can still be converted.”

Gopstein said “missionary bookstores offer their products in front of everyone on Jaffa Road in Jerusalem, whole communities are crawling with missionaries, many businesses are run by them and are used by the mission, many cases using camouflage and without the knowledge of the employees.”

Gopstein said that the “fear that every Jew felt, the disgust that we described above at Christianity – disgust that was the only thing that saved us from the dark days in Europe – has disappeared with the ‘good life’ of the democratic age…and the missionary is on the prowl for prey.”

Gopstein ends his article by writing: “I call on everyone to raise a cry and fight this corrupt phenomenon in the best tradition of Judaism, before we all, including those who observe the commandments among us, become a community of sycophants.”

“Christmas has no place in the Holy Land,” he wrote, adding “Let us remove the vampires before they once again drink our blood.”

The Israel Movement for Reform and Progressive Judaism wrote a letter to the state prosecutor calling for an investigation over Gopstein’s latest remarks, listing numerous incidents of incitement. But Gopstein is Israel’s teflon man, nothing sticks to him. He was arrested for incitement last December, along with other members of La Familia, after the torching of a bilingual school in Jerusalem. Israeli defense minister Moshe Ya’alon considered declaring Lahava a terrorist organization at that time, but Gopstein suggested outlawing the Islamist Movement instead. Coincidentally (or not), last month the government of Israel did outlaw the Islamic Movement of Northern Israel and shut down 17 affiliated charities.

However, Gopstein remains free. Meanwhile, Haaretz reports indictments have not been served on the torching of the bilingual school and “it seems the case is going to be closed.” The state prosecutor’s office received the Israel Movement for Reform and Progressive Judaism letter calling for an investigation, but ” “no decision has been made yet” on the Lehava case.”

Gopstein is the leader of a Kahanist network that has wreaked criminal havoc all over Israel and Palestine. From the torching of mosques, churches and schools, to price tag attacks, to murder. Investigations come and go, everything seems to fall off him like water off a duck’s back. No wonder Gopstein and his cohorts keep smiling.

I bet if the Christians of the world boycotted Israel at Xmas , this toad would be the first one to throw accusations of antisemitism around.

Drop him off in an Irish pub where he can tell all the clients they are vampires.We drink oceans of that black stuff but bloody Mary,s ,why that would be a mortal sin.

He looks like he could be John Goodman’s cousin. I hope Israel and their cretins keep this
going because it will be so much easier to cut the umbilical cord from the USA, a majority Christian nation, that has endlessly fueled Israel’s existence (Muslims and Christians have more in common anyway as far as religion goes).

Let the entitled nation of eight million Israelis stand on it’s own two feet and see how far they get without asking uncle Sam for another handout. They can’t handle independence or self rule because the world is not going to return to animal sacrifices atop the third temple. It’s sad, but Israel is an anomaly that probably wouldn’t survive a year on it’s own if it weren’t for the western governments and leaders catering to Zionist money and subversive power. All the bought and paid for US republican candidates, all mooching for Jewish money so they can stay in the race is truly pathetic.

This is sad beyond belief.
How is this supposed to help Israel and the Israelis into the future?

I have no faith in the corrupt concept of Israel’s law and justice, and believe that Gopstein will likely walk. But the stain and stink will spill over and mark the innocent, if racist Israeli citizens.

Gopstein has clearly taken a step a step over the Cliffs of Insanity into the Abyss of Psychopathy.

Christians drink the blood of Jews? Isn’t that some sort of libel?

“Gopstein is a Kahanist and claims Jewish law mandates the burning of mosques and churches.”

That’s going to make Jews popular with Muslims and Christians.

I was thinking the same.

On a strange Christmas road odyssey, visiting longtime friends in Washington and Oregon, en route to a Christmas ski holiday with my kids in Bend Oregon.

I’ve been staying over with one longtime friend after another, all of whom are militant, strident atheists. They aren’t all knowledgeable about Israeli politics and what Zionism really is, but all are aware that we need to end Israeli and militant Zionist influence on our national and international policies, ASAP.

Talking of Christmas, Ron Dermer the zionist in American clothing, has devious plans typical of zionists, in the form of Christmas presents for the White House. How predictably cunning!

“Israel’s ambassador to the U.S., Ron Dermer, tweeted on Monday that all of the presents he is sending this holiday season will be products produced in the occupied West Bank and Golan Heights. The gifts will include wine, olive oil, body cream, and halva, the Israeli embassy told The Huffington Post.
In a letter to gift recipients, Dermer described his decision as an effort to “combat the latest effort by Israel’s enemies to destroy the one and only Jewish state,” specifically referencing the recent European Union decision to label goods originating in the occupied Palestinian territories to differentiate them from products made within Israel’s 1967 borders.”

And

“Dermer’s aggressive defense of settlement products is a direct rebuke to the White House, which earlier this year, rejected an amendment to a trade bill from Congress, which instructed the administration to pressure the EU against differentiating between Israel and “Israeli-controlled territories” during ongoing free trade negotiations.”

The WH should reject those poisonous gifts, since we do not recognize those squatter lands.

Gopstein is sick and bad news and in fact mediocre and forgettable. The movement that he represents of sicko right wing Yehudim is very dispiriting and discouraging. It indicates deep trouble in his psyche and the psyche of too many just like him. But really, Hitler?

if hitler were a jew, alive and well today and living in israel, do you think his following would be bigger or smaller than Gopstein’s? if Gopstein had the power of hitler do you think he would show mercy on palestinians? did you watch the wedding party of his daughter? they are dancing with knives stabbing the air. did you read the subtitles or do you speak hebrew? i can’t recall. and i covered it here: link to mondoweiss.net

or is it only savage when palestinians kill. it’s in the “la familia” link in the main text.

Were Gopstein to have at his command the equivalent resources and manpower Hitler had, do you really think he’d be any different?

So much for Israel accusing it’s neighbors of being terrorists, or harboring terrorists.

It looks like the “only democracy” in the ME is far from that beacon of shining light.
It breeds rabid, uncivilized looking humans, whose main thought is to show violent tendencies towards their neighbors. Arabs are accused of honoring their “terrorists”, so what is all this about?

I shall point this article out to a South African ex pat friend of mine who attends the same church as me., She recently learnt from me, about jewish terrorists and the apartheid of Israel being worse than what there was in SA.

“Bethlehem Celebrates Another Occupied Christmas

Whether the city of Jesus’ birth will be a symbol for peace or for war lies in the hands of Israel’s leaders. Can they respect the legal and moral imperative to respect Palestinians’ inalienable rights?

At this holy time of the year, Bethlehem, the city of the Nativity, stands at the center of attention of the whole world. What the world might overlook as it watches is that the very city where Jesus was born celebrates yet another occupied Christmas. This year, Israel, a self-proclaimed “safe haven” for Christians, has presented to Bethlehem a few unwelcome Christmas gifts.

Israel’s Christmas gifts to Bethlehem this year serve towards consolidating the separation between Bethlehem and its twin city, Jerusalem; the city where Jesus was born and the city where he was resurrected – the essence of the Christian faith. Aside from the daily violations that the besieged Bethlehem suffers as a result of the occupation, Israel issued a military order last week announcing that it has confiscated 101 dunams of Bethlehem’s northern lands. In the same week, the Israeli government approved the expansion of the illegal settlement of Gilo – built on privately owned lands of Bethlehem – by 891 new housing units.

Right to the west of the Gilo settlement lies the Cremisan valley in Beit Jala with its two Salesian monasteries and privately owned agricultural lands. Despite a nine-year legal battle, tremendous diplomatic lobby efforts and civil resistance, Israel continues to build the annexation wall in Cremisan, leaving 58 Palestinian Christian families robbed of their lands. Where do these families go now and to whom do they have recourse?

Despite Israel’s claim that it is the only country in the Middle East where Christians prosper, the unspoken message it sends on the ground is that it has no respect whatsoever for their rights as Palestinians and for their existence in their homeland. It is claimed that Islamic extremism is the reason behind the massive emigration of Palestinian Christians. In reality, the problems of Palestinian Christians stem essentially from the fact that they are Palestinians living under the Israeli occupation. What drives a Palestinian Christian out of his homeland to seek a better future elsewhere is the daily harassment of the occupation, and Israel’s land confiscation policies fall at the heart of the matter.

The Israeli government is quick to cite “security” justifications for its oppressive policies – while in reality, land grab and settlement expansion motives – under the pretext of security – cannot be concealed.

Nevertheless, I will not call on anyone. I will not make yet another failed call on the international community. This time, I only call on the Israeli leaders in search of “security”. I call on them to finally see the inevitable result of walls, stolen lands and illegal settlements: it will only bring more isolation, rejection and hatred, hence, more insecurity. I call on them to see that justice, education for mutual respect and acceptance will bring security and peace.

Bethlehem is now either a symbol for peace, or war. I invite the Israeli leaders to make it a symbol for peace, and for a new just approach for Palestinians. …”

Stop inviting “Israeli leaders” and beseeching those without compassion, kindness, and any sense of justice , Patriarch Emeritus Michael Sabbah. Rather, you should (and can) DEMAND that the world act in solidarity with Palestinians and for Palestine.

This is about lives and hope and peace.

Spot on Just! A happy and peaceful Christmas to you.

Also my hope is that 2016 will bring the Palestininan people the good news proclaimed by the prophet Isaiah and then uttered by Jesus in fufillment, in the synagogue in Nazareth, –
” The spirit of the Lord is on me, because He has annointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight to the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favour.” (Isaiah 64 v1-2; Luke 5 v 18-19)

Of course these words were meant for Jew and Goyim – so sad and angering that so many today who were ‘chosen’ to be involved in lighting up the world are bringers of deep darkness. Sad too that there are misguided Christian zionists.

I wonder if Mr. Gopstein is comfortable with other countries kicking out Jews – whose celebrations have no place in their lands – before they once again drink the blood of non-Jews.

Or perhaps he’s just another hateful and immoral Zio-supremacist hypocrite who believes that Jews are entitled to do unto others acts of injustice and immorality they would not have others do unto them.

It goes without saying – but I’ll say it anyway – that if even the most obscure Iranian or Arab leader said something similar, MEMRI would be all over it, the MSM would pick it up within hours, and we’d never hear the end of it. It would be used as ‘clash of civilisations’ fodder, and ‘evidence’ that the West just simply is not compatible with the Islamic faith.

Speaking of which, does anyone else ever question the trite phrase ”Judeo-Christian civilisation” or ”Judeo-Christian values”? Christianity was a REJECTION of Judaism. Sure, they share the same roots and some of the same scriptures, but so too does the Islamic religion (not the same scriptures, but many of the same characters and ‘storylines’). I’ve always thought this term is just another way of ‘including’ Jews, Judaism and Israel – and excluding everyone else – even though it’s hard to identify a common ‘civilisation’ which they share.

Rashers2 December 23, 2015, 8:01 pm

MDM and eljay, it is tempting, when confronted with the likes of a Gopstein (my view on whom appears succinctly, above), to “throw the baby out with the bathwater”. Jews, along with Goyim of all shades and religious convictions, have made huge and beneficial contributions over many centuries to our “common civilisation” (from which expression I infer what’s generally considered by those in the West as “Western civilisation”). Israelis, by contrast, have made in their short history few noticeable contributions to civilisation, common or otherwise.

The psychological condition under which Gopstein labours has very little if anything to do with Judaism except to the extent that he may espouse some “End of Days” belief – which he will have in common with the lunatic fringes of fundamentalist Christianity and radical, Salafi-Sunni Islam – in which, of course, Jaweh/the Trinity/Allah triumphs over all Goyim/unconverted/Infidel, depending on the starting point of the “Domesday” adherent. Gopstein suffers from Zio-pathy; the psychosis is political.

Today (24th December) is the prophet Mohammed’s (pbuh) birthday and hence a holiday here. Yesterday, I returned from a brief trip to Europe to an Inbox full of e-mails from clients and others (Muslims) offering me season’s greetings and wishing my family, loved ones and me happiness, peace and God’s blessing. I responded in like vein for, even though an agnostic, I think it’s alright to wish people to be blessed by that in which they themselves truly believe and value. The contrast between this and the sentiments of the despicable Gopstein made Annie’s article the more striking and dispiriting.
