[Ted Pike] Editor's Note:
The government of Britain has banned
Jewish Anti-Islamists Pamela Geller and her associate Robert Spenser
from the country, objecting to their "hateful" rhetoric
against Muslims. Geller and Spenser vigorously respond that the
Koran, as well as statements by Islamic scholars to the present,
advocate Muslim world control. What Geller and Spenser never mention
is that modern Judaism's most sacred scriptures, the Talmud and
Zohar, are replete with expressions of Rabbinic Judaism's dream of
world empire -including annihilation of all their Gentile and
Christian enemies.
In this reprint of my article "Have
You Read the Talmud Lately?" I present an overview of the
Talmud's worldview.
In my last e-alert, I was the bearer of
bad news: Deep within Judaism's most sacred rabbinic writings, the
Talmud and Zohar (Kabbalah), there exists the obligation to overthrow
existing Gentile and Christian society and establish a “new Jewish
order.” Such Judaic teaching powerfully diminishes the value of
Gentile lives, particularly today in Israel’s occupied territories
and Lebanon.
I was consequently vilified by a number
of readers. One asked, “Where do you get this trash?” He said
that if he needed to know the dark side of Judaism, he’d rather do
it from Mein Kampf!
The truth is that, with the possible
exception of some secular Jewish congregations, every synagogue in
the world contains the Talmud and Zohar. It’s from these works that
my assertions came. They are the two most important sources of
inspired literature for observant Jews, greatly surpassing the Bible.
The Talmud however, is the most universally read and applied.
Herman Wouk, Orthodox Jew and famed
author of The Cain Mutiny, affirms, “The Talmud is to this day the
circulating heart’s blood of the Jewish religion. Whatever laws,
customs, ceremonies we observe—whether we are Orthodox,
Conservative, Reform or merely spasmodic sentimentalists—we follow
the Talmud. It is our common law.”
One would think that religious
literature so centrally important to one of the world’s great
religions would be easily located in local libraries. It is certainly
easy to find the Bible or Koran.
Not so the Talmud. While the very
largest municipal libraries in a state may possess the Talmud and
Zohar, they are almost always absent elsewhere, except in synagogues.
In almost every synagogue in the world, the Talmud and Zohar loom
above every other piece of literature in authority and appreciation.
Why are library shelves vacant of the
Talmud and Zohar? Quite simply, it’s because Judaism teaches that
the law they contain was given to Jews alone and it’s wrong for
Gentiles to read that law. The Talmud says, “The goy who pries into
the law is worthy of death.”
The Jewish Encyclopedia tells us,
“Hence the Talmud prohibited the teaching to a Gentile of the Torah
[Talmud and Zohar] “the inheritance of the congregation of Jacob…”
R. Johanan says of one so teaching, “Such a person deserves
death.”—Sanh. 59a, Hagigah.
Accordingly, Jewish leaders make it
clear to Christian seminaries and scholars that they will not
tolerate published research into the Talmud’s real teachings about
Christ, Christianity, and Gentiles. Christian academics obey,
terrified of being smeared as “anti-Semites.”
In the early '80s, as part of research
for my book, Israel: Our Duty, Our Dilemma, I visited the Judaic
section of the Library of Congress in Washington, D.C. to study
various versions of the Zohar, or Kabbalah.
On my first visit, I asked the Jewish
librarian where to find the Soncino English translation. He became
disturbed and replied, “I don’t think you want to read that. You
might misunderstand it.” I couldn’t believe my ears. I’m afraid
I showed my anger. He relented.
Since publication of my book in 1984
and release of my first video documentary on this subject, “The
Other Israel,” many people, confronted with the dark side of Judaic
ethics, have rejected my message outright. Their reasoning is simple
and direct: “What Pike says can’t be true because our Christian
leaders and national media have never given us a hint of confirmation
for what he says.” A smaller number contend that I quoted out of
context or, even worse, forged documents. They think I faked the
Xerox copies of the Talmud and Zohar in the appendix of my book, to
create the illusion of a Judaic conspiracy.
Such skepticism has been flying at me
via email this week. I will therefore conclude by reproducing a few
pages from the Talmud and Zohar, displaying the antipathy of the
Talmud and Zohar toward Gentiles.[See those pages via
this link to Ted Pike's source article.]
Where do I get this stuff? See you at
the Library of Congress!
