[chottala.com] Israeli Shas Rabbi Ovadia Yosef: “May God kill Abbas and the Palestinians with Plague”



http://www.worldofjudaica.com/jewish-news/israel/rabbi-yosef-may-palestinians-die/585/35/ 

 
Israeli rabbi wishes Palestinians death
Sun Aug 29, 2010 5:15AM
Shas spiritual leader Rabbi Ovadia Yosef
The spiritual leader of Israel's ultra-orthodox Shas party has wished death for all Palestinians, including acting Palestinian Authority chief Mahmoud Abbas.


Rabbi Ovadia Yosef made the controversial remark during his weekly sermon at a synagogue on Saturday, the Israeli daily Haaretz reported.

"Abu Mazen [Mahmoud Abbas] and all these evil people should perish from this world," said Ovadia.

"God should strike them with a plague, them and these Palestinians," he went on to say.

During his speech, Rabbi Yosef also called the Palestinians "evil, bitter enemies of Israel" and denounced the upcoming peace talks with the Palestinians, which are set to start in Washington on September 2.

In April 2001, the Shas spiritual leader had made similar comments, calling for the annihilation of Arabs.

"It is forbidden to be merciful to them. You must send missiles to them and annihilate them. They are evil and damnable," he said.

As founder and spiritual leader of the Shas political party, Rabbi Yosef is one of the most powerful religious figures in Israel.

Shas Spiritual Head
Rabbi Yosef - nice suit, sharp tongue.

In his weekly address this past weekend, former Chief Rabbi and Shas spiritual leader Rabbi Yosef said, "May our enemies and those who hate us be gone from this world. May the Holy One Blessed Be He strike them down with plague, them and those Palestinians, evil ones and enemies of Israel."
Shas spiritual leader Rabbi Ovadiah Yosef wished death upon the head of the Palestinian Authority, Mahmoud Abbas (Abu Mazen) and his people in the backdrop of the opening of direct peace negotiations this coming Wednesday. In his weekly address this past Shabbat, Rabbi Yosef said, "May our enemies and those who hate us all die, Abu Mazen and all these evil people, they should be gone from this world. May the Holy One Blessed be He strike them down with plague, them and those Palestinians, evil ones and enemies of Israel."
Up until now, the Rabbi, who has more than once been considered extreme with his expressions, has been careful to keep quiet regarding anything having to do with the negotiations. In the late 80's, Rabbi Yosef ruled that it is necessary to strive for peace even at the price of painful concessions in the framework of the ultimate value of Jewish law—saving lives.
This ruling brought his political party, Shas, to vote in favor of the Oslo Accords in 1993, which directly brought the PA and then Yasser Arafat and Mahmoud Abbas to power in Israel from Tunisian exile, the same Abbas he now wishes would be struck down with plague and die. Without Rabbi Yosef's prior endorsement, the Oslo Accords would not have passed into law.
Abbas is not getting any rest from the other side either, as Halil Haya, one of the stronger personalities in the Hamas political wing in Gaza, issued a carefully worded threat in his direction. "The Iz al din al Kassam brigades are ready to step on the neck of whoever foregoes Al Quds (Jerusalem), refugees, and Palestinian land. These talks are designed to destroy Palestine," Haya added at a gathering two days ago in the strip. It should be noted that according to the Hamas charter, "Palestinian land", means all of 1948 mandatory Palestine.
Halil Haya is not alone – behind him stands an entire movement, not to mention an entire state, that wants to see the failure of these talks. Arabic media reports that the White House relayed messages to Damascus not to intervene and make things difficult for Abbas. The Syrian leadership hasn't made a sound at all since the talks opened in the last few months, but others are doing the work for them.
First, representatives of the 13 Palestinian organizations in Damascus met and in a coordinated announcement called on Abbas not to go to the table. Afterwards, Ismail Haniyeh, the Hamas leader in Gaza, said that the talks, in Israel's point of view, are a continuation of the war with other methods. "These talks are illegitimate, as are the results of these talks, and therefore they do not obligate the Palestinian people for anything," said Khaled Mashaal, Hamas leader in Damascus.
The pressure coming from Syria and Hamas are being joined by the opposition growing from within Ramallah, partly from the PLO committee itself. This is the answer as two why Abbas needed Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak and Jordianian King Abdullah with him on the issue of the talks. If the talks fail, Abbas doesn't want to be there alone.
 
 
US: Israeli rabbi's remarks offensive
Mon Aug 30, 2010 1:48AM
Washington has criticized Shas spiritual leader Rabbi Ovadia Yosef over remarks that Palestinians should perish from this world.


"We regret and condemn the inflammatory statements by Rabbi Ovadia Yosef," US State Department spokesman Philip J. Crowley said on Sunday.

"These remarks are not only deeply offensive, but incitement such as this hurts the cause of peace," he added.

"As we move forward to re-launch peace negotiations, it is important that actions by people on all sides help to advance our effort, not hinder it," Crowley said.

The 89-year-old Rabbi Ovadia Yosef denounced Palestinians as bitter enemies of Israel and called for all Palestinians to "perish from this world."

The spiritual leader of Israel's leading ultra-Orthodox party also described Palestinians as "evil, bitter enemies of Israel" during his speech.

The remarks came ahead of upcoming direct peace talks between Israel and the Palestinian Authority in Washington in early September. The negotiations are intent upon a deal within a year to create an independent Palestinian state.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Palestinian leader Mahmoud Abbas will meet face-to-face on September 2 with US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the first direct talks in 20 months.

RE: [chottala.com] Like Mustaq, Sayem & Zia , Ershad was also an illegal power grabber !




One Party Democratic system, back to 1973-74
 
Yes, next election AL will get 100% vote. "AL" is only the legal party in Bangladesh. History of "AL" was very much democratic, I suppose  !
 
I hope one day we will grade a party based on below criteria
 - Bring economic freedom to millions
 - Alleviate poverty accross country
 - Give basic needs (electric, gas  and road communication)
 - Major Development across the country.
 - Least corrupted party officials during any time ( you will be surprise to see  who !)
 - Promote Bangladesh in international arena
 - Made Bangladesh competitive - benchmarking with any SARRC countries.
 - Teach a universal  language that can bring money and food on the table , given Bangla language does not work anywhere in the world, not even in india.
      
 
Can anyone dispute this?
---Transparency International emphasized again and again party and gov. official corruptions as the main obstacle for development.
--- Democracy is only good when people have poor peoplr economic freedom
----Knowing English provide higher pay for Bangladeshi workers in any host country such as (Europe, America, Middle East)
----Knowing Arabic  provide higher pay in middle east, so Maddrassa system helps us.
----Knowing Bangla we can express my culture, sing a song, read newspaper what else ! Fight each other since 1971.

Zia did more harm than Ershad: HC
 
Dhaka, Aug 26 (bdnews24.com)—Even though autocrat H M Ershad had committed crime by suspending the constitution, military strongman Ziaur Rahman's crime was far greater in magnitude, the High Court has observed.

The court in its verdict issued on Thursday said Zia had not only suspended the constitution but he also brought basic changes to its cardinal principles.

The High Court made the observation while comparing the two military regimes in the verdict, declaring the Seventh Amendment illegal on Thursday.

The bench of justices A H M Shamsuddin Chowdhury and Sheikh Mohammad Zakir Hossain in the ruling declared Ershad's military regime illegal.

The Seventh Amendment to the constitution was passed in the parliament formed in 1986 which legitamised the takeover of power by Ershad along with the martial law orders made between 1982 and 1986.

Earlier on Aug 29, 2005, the High Court issued a verdict that had declared the Fifth Amendment illegal. It also had declared illegal the regimes of Khondker Moshtaq Ahmed, Abu Sa'adat Mohammad Sayem and Zia between Aug 15, 1975 and 1979.

Regarding Zia, the verdict stated he had appointed a pro-Pakistan person (Shah Azizur Rahman) prime minister and rehabilitated a number of persons of the same belief and the killers of Sheikh Mujibur Rahman and made grounds for religion-based politics.

The court stated Ershad also illegally ruled the country just like Khondker Moshtaq Ahmed, Abu Sa'adat Mohammad Sayem and Ziaur Rahman and so, none of them can be pardoned. Ershad cannot get away from the consequences for what he had done.

The verdict also said, Ershad took over the power from justice Abdus Sattar, the successor to Zia, and suspended the constitution. Mostaq and Zia, however, went on to change the constitution.

The court also said some renegade army officers killed Sheikh Mujib on Aug 15, 1975 with support from foreign powers. Moshtaq came to power even though he was not speaker or vice president and Zia took over from him.

Zia had blocked the way to try the killers of Mujib by issuing the Indemnity Act. He removed the basic principles of the constitution which were included in light of the liberation war perspective, said the verdict.

It also said, Zia, using martial law, had illegally penalised a number of freedom fighters including Col Abu Taher in military courts and tribunals.

On Apr 5, the High Court asked the government to explain why the Seventh Amendment which legalised the takeover of power by Ershad along with the martial law instructions made between 1982 and 1986 was not illegal.

The ruling came in response to a petition filed by Siddique Ahmed, a resident of Chittagong, who was convicted of murder during Ershad's martial law period.

It, however, spared those decisions that were taken in public interest but declared the Fifth Amendment illegal.

Additionally, the court had commented in that verdict, all the changes in the administration from Aug 15, 1975 till the parliament elections on 1991 were not made according to the constitution.

The BNP-led coalition government had appealed for a stay order on the verdict. However, the ruling Awami League-led government withdrew the appeal.

On Feb 2, the Appellate Division dismissed an appeal challenging the High Court verdict.
