## 󠀁[Rabbi Elhanan Beckin’s Bold Stand Against Zionism and Israel’s Safety for Jews](https://politicaleye.news/News,%20sports,%20entertainment,/rabbi-elhanan-beckins-bold-stand-against-zionism-and-israels-safety-for-jews/)󠁿

In a candid interview, [Rabbi Elhanan Beckin](https://politicaleye.news/News,%20sports,%20entertainment,/rabbi-elhanan-beckin/),
a prominent Orthodox Jewish scholar and head of the anti-Zionist movement [Neturi Karta](https://politicaleye.news/News,%20sports,%20entertainment,/neturi-karta/),
voiced strong concerns about the state of Israel, stating that it is “rebellion 
against God” and predicting its eventual demise.

Beckin, who has lived in England for 36 years, emphasized the stark contrast between
the safety of Jews in Western countries like England and America versus what he 
deems the perilous situation in Israel. He argued that Zionism, the foundation of
the Israeli state, goes against Jewish beliefs, asserting, “Zionism is built on 
disbelief in God, but Judaism is built on belief in God.”

The rabbi highlighted that Orthodox Jews have opposed the creation of Israel since
the inception of Zionism. He pointed out that while numerous countries have thrived
in peace over the last 75 years, Israel remains an exception, perpetually mired 
in conflict.

Contrary to the common narrative, Beckin disputed claims that Muslims are a threat
to Jews, contending that Jews historically enjoyed a “golden life” in Muslim countries.
He emphasized that Jews continue to live peacefully in various Muslim nations, including
Morocco, Tunisia, Algeria, Iran, Turkey, and Yemen.

The Orthodox leader didn’t shy away from blaming Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin
Netanyahu, accusing him of committing genocide and justifying it. Beckin boldly 
stated, “A person who commits genocide and justifies it cannot be seen as a Jew.
Those who justify genocide are not Jews; they are Nazis. Netanyahu is the leader
of those who rebel against God.”

As tensions persist in the region, Beckin’s powerful words shed light on a perspective
that challenges mainstream narratives surrounding Israel and Zionism, prompting 
a reevaluation of the complex dynamics in the Middle East.
