But more often it seems,\u00a0 Israel\u2019s prominent Rabbis are more openly enthusiastic about violence, brutality and abuse.<\/h5>\n<h5><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ynetnews.com\/articles\/0,7340,L-4216577,00.html\"><span style=\"color: #ffff99;\">Ynet reports today<\/span><\/a> that Israel leading rabbis rally to the aid of Lieutenant-Colonel Eisner, an IDF hooligan officer who attacked Danish peace activist yesterday.<\/h5>\n<h5>Watch Israeli Lieutenant-Colonel Eisner assault:<\/h5>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><object classid=\"clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" codebase=\"http:\/\/download.macromedia.com\/pub\/shockwave\/cabs\/flash\/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0\"><param name=\"allowFullScreen\" value=\"true\" \/><param name=\"allowscriptaccess\" value=\"always\" \/><param name=\"src\" value=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/uL-GmYBNDqY?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB\" \/><param name=\"allowfullscreen\" value=\"true\" \/><embed type=\"application\/x-shockwave-flash\" width=\"420\" height=\"315\" src=\"http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/v\/uL-GmYBNDqY?version=3&amp;hl=en_GB\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" allowscriptaccess=\"always\"><\/embed><\/object><\/p>\n<h5>Several prominent rabbis expressed their support for the religious Lieutenant-Colonel who was caught on camera brutally attacking a peace activist with his rifle. The Rabbis insist that the military\u2019s decision to suspend the Lieutenant-Colonel was impetuous.<\/h5>\n<h5>Lieutenant-Colonel Eisner expressed remorse over his action, saying that while he should not have flung his weapon at the activist, the video footage released depicted only \u201c60 seconds out of a two-hour event.\u201d\u00a0 This is indeed a winning Talmudic spin. Rather than dealing with factuality and truth of the matter, we are asked to engage with the\u00a0 \u2018unknown\u2019, the \u2018missing footage\u2019 so to say.<\/h5>\n<h5>Rabbi Haim Drukman, who was Eisner\u2019s mentor, described his former pupil as \u201ca fine man, an idealist. He didn\u2019t choose a military career because he needed a job \u2013 he is there to give his life for the security of the IDF \u201c. Rabbi Druknam may be correct here, looking again at the footage, we must admit that the silent Danish peace activist seems indeed to threaten the IDF, the State of Israel, and the Jewish people in general.<\/h5>\n<h5>Former Chief IDF Rabbi Avihai Ronski slammed the decision to suspend Eisner, who he described as \u201ca highly ethical individual.\u201d\u00a0 I guess that by now it is clear to most people that \u2018ethics\u2019 is a very relative notion in the Jews Only State.<\/h5>\n<h5>I guess that the Israeli Rabbis are clever enough to discern a problem within the IDF\u2019s attitude towards its hooligan officer. If Israel wants to maintain itself as the Jews only State, if Israel insists in maintaining its symptoms at the expense of the Palestinian indigenous population, then,\u00a0 its officers must be brutal and vile towards any from of resistance.<\/h5>\n<h5>Sooner or later, Israel and its Rabbis will have to make a very painful decision. They will have to face the horrific moral and ethical consequences of maintaining a racist, nationalist and expansionist Jewish State.<\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.gilad.co.uk\/writings\/rabbis-for-violence-brutality-and-abuse.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Israeli rabbis have rallied to the defence of an IDF officer filmed attacking peace activists with a rifle.
