Rabbi Meir Kahane vindicated (by National Geographic)
By Shelomo Alfassa
No matter what you think of him, whether you hate him or love him, the name Meir Kahane is a name that will forever be engrained in the history of the Jewish people. But just this past week, fifteen years after his murder, he was vindicated on the world stage via American national television.
Rabbi Kahane, born in Brooklyn in 1932, was an author, political activist and a member of the Israeli Knesset. When concluding a speech in Manhattan, Rabbi Kahane was assassinated by El-Sayyid Nosair, an Egyptian and member of an Arab terrorist cell operating in New York in 1990. Nosair was one of Sheikh Omar Abd El-Rahman's men, who would later be convicted for the 1993 World Trade Center bombing; today, he is serving life in prison. The gun that was used to kill Rabbi Kahane was supplied to Nosair by Wadih El-Hage, who is a member of Al-Qaeda convicted of conspiracy to kill American citizens in the 1998 US embassy bombings.
With jihad being conducted around the world, and especially after the mass murder of September 11, 2001, some Jews have been attempting to remind the world of what Kahane was warning them, as well as noting that Kahane had been the first victim of jihad in the United States. Of course, when Jews who supported Kahane speak up, they generally don't catch the attention of the liberal media, but they repeated their cry for over a decade to recognize that the slaying of Kahane was the initial attack Islamic terrorists had brought against American citizens. Finally, their cries have been accepted as fact.
The National Geographic cable television channel has just released a new four-hour documentary called "Inside 9/11". The focus of the special is not to show devastation in New York, but to present the facts in the form of a timeline, so that people can understand what happened, who was - and is - attacking America. The documentary has received rave reviews and the cable networks consider this broadcast so important that they have made the show available for free in areas that don't carry the National Geographic channel.
This well-made production explains what many of the Jewish people have been shouting to the world. The documentary starts with the assassination of Rabbi Meir Kahane and goes on to dedicate a portion of the first hour explaining how the rabbi was targeted by an Islamic terrorist. The significance is to recognize the fact that Kahane was assassinated as an act of jihad against the West, and to show that organized Islamic terror cells have already been successful in sending an operative into the United States to successfully murder someone they saw as problematic. If they did it once, they can, and will, do it again.
Nosair (who was acquitted of Rabbi Kahane's murder, even though he shot him in front of a large crowd), was only found guilty of illegally possessing a weapon. However, a subsequent search of the murderer's apartment uncovered 47 boxes of documents in Arabic, which proved that he was part of a worldwide terrorist network. According to the National Geographic documentary, the FBI let this evidence slip through their fingers, not thinking it was important material.
At lunchtime on February 26, 1993, a truck bomb was set off under the World Trade Center. Six people were killed and more than 1,000 injured. The bomb destroyed a total of seven stories of the structure. Four terrorists, linked to Nosair, were later convicted of this attack. Members of this same group would later work with Al-Qaeda and, eight years later, bring down both towers in New York and slam a plane into the Pentagon, killing over 2,500 Americans....
from Wikipedia: Kahane believed that the Palestinians sought the genocide of the Israelis, and therefore he proposed the population transfer, and even forcible deportation, of all Arabs from Israel including the West Bank.
Better to forcibly deport Jews..... right?
You crazy rosh yeshivas who sit on your fat asses,instead of encouraging peaceful protests; there is a special place in Hell for you shitheads.
You were complicit in Kahane's death by dehumanizing him.
He did more for Judaism than any of you filthy thieves!

What are you talking about, my Rebbe "idolizes" R' Kahane, quotes him extensivly in his drashas and was one of his most active supporters in the JDL.
Rachak,
Your Rebbe's the best! No, seriously, he must be an exception. R' Kahane was and continues to be ignored by "mainstream" Orthodoxy. (I'm talking about the NY and Israeli people - the ones who set the precedent and run the show - for now @ least...)
P.S. You better stop blogging so much and focus on the new school year - 12th grade's no joke! ;)
Farshtoonkane,
Mazel Tov!
Come back and say hello.
By the grace of G-d
Shalom uBrocha!

For one thing unlike yourself Rabbi Kahane didn't use profanities in his speeches.
You "advertise" yourself as a graduate of one of the best Yeshivas and have no manners .
You say you learned Rambam yet you ignore the Rambam's instructions (Found in Mishne Torah ) how it's proper to rebuke people in general and Rosh Yeshiva's or the like in particular.
While it's hard to disagree with you on many issues you raise here it's hard to believe that nibul peh and largely unsubstantiated allegations against people considered to be leaders of the Orthodox Jewish community in a publicly searchable blog do more good than harm...

I meant to post on latest NK related post
Ariel,
I am tired of the nice words and polite talk.
This blog is for the purposes of expressing our thoughts in a most unambiguous way.
I intend to use language that makes it really clear what I believe.
WE WANT MOSHIACH TO GET UP OUT OF HIS GRAVE AND PUT ON CLEAN CLOTHING AND GET ON A DONKEY AND GO TO 770 AND ANNOUNCE HIS COMING, NOWWWWWWWWW!
um.. gross, Kahane himself is from Brooklyn as was my Rebbe and as is my father who met Kahane. I don't think UOJew knows what he's talking about, he just makes things up as he goes along. I happen to have a Kahane's sefer on my desk right now "Ohr HaRayaon."
Rachak,
Why are you annoying me with gedolim pictures, especially the modern Jews without hats?
Can't you find a Jew with a hat?

A small lesson in Jewish history for you about a man who appears without a hat (Nutra Rav Rabbi Chaim Michoel Dov Weissmandl zt"l )
in current picture in the Rachak's profile:
http://www.weissmandl.org
"Among the Blind Fools" (streaming documentary video presentation)
Rav Weissmandl's : TEN QUESTIONS TO THE ZIONISTS
He was by no means a "modern Jew", he was close to Satmar in ideology I think . He appears wearing a round Satmar like black hat in his other pictures.
In addition to his "sins" of daring to document negligent if not criminal efforts of various Zionist leaders which ended up sabotaging the rescue of Jews during the Holocaust he was also involved in researching Torah codes (see http://www.biblecodedigest.com/page.php/24 ) which in your book probably puts him among the lowest of the low despite the fact that he saved 200,000 Jews from holocaust , never mind Gr'a also mentions various Torah codes and so did the Arizal, but a chocham like yourself can ignore all of them. :-)
Brocha veHatzlocha!

PS. Interestingly Lelover Rebbe is quoted as saying that a person who hates seeing Lubavitcher Rebbe's picture lacks fear of G-d could it be that you are annoyed with "gedolim pictures" (now Rabbi Weissmandl's picture in the past it used to feature Brisker Rov I think) in Rachacks profile for the same or similar reason? Or is it because both of those often made "anti-zionist" remarks? :-)
Long Live our Master our Teacher and our Rebbe King Moshiach Forever and Ever!
Charedim by an large do like and even adore kahane with the notable exceptions of satmar and NK and other assocciated hungarian settler hating scum.
