⟴ [info from Craig Murray video appearance, follows] US-Anglo Alliance DELIBERATELY STOKING ANTI-RUSSIAN FEELING & RAMPING UP TENSION BETWEEN EASTERN EUROPE & RUSSIA. British military/government feeding media PROPAGANDA. Media choosing to PUBLISH government PROPAGANDA. US naval aggression against Russia: Baltic Sea — US naval aggression against China: South China Sea. Continued NATO pressure on Russia: US missile systems moving into Eastern Europe. ⟴ [info from John Pilger interview follows] War Hawk: Hillary Clinton — embodiment of seamless aggressive American imperialist post-WWII system. USA in frenzy of preparation for a conflict. Greatest US-led build-up of forces since WWII gathered in Eastern Europe and in Baltic states. US expansion & military preparation HAS NOT BEEN REPORTED IN THE WEST. Since US paid for & controlled US coup, UKRAINE has become an American preserve and CIA Theme Park, on Russia's borderland, through which Germans invaded in the 1940s, costing 27 million Russian lives. Imagine equivalent occurring on US borders in Canada or Mexico. US military preparations against RUSSIA and against CHINA have NOT been reported by MEDIA. US has sent guided missile ships to diputed zone in South China Sea. DANGER OF US PRE-EMPTIVE NUCLEAR STRIKES. China is on HIGH NUCLEAR ALERT. US spy plane intercepted by Chinese fighter jets. Public is primed to accept so-called 'aggressive' moves by China, when these are in fact defensive moves: US 400 major bases encircling China; Okinawa has 32 American military installations; Japan has 130 American military bases in all. WARNING PENTAGON MILITARY THINKING DOMINATES WASHINGTON. ⟴ ❌

Israel - Orthodoxy - Shas

ISRAEL

halacha
= collective body of Jewish religious laws derived from the Written & Oral Torah
= commandments & customs / traditions

*viewed as less binding since Enlightenment
*But in Israel areas of family & personal status law are under rabbinic courts. [wpedia]

Orthodox Jews observe halachic law /
Religious Services Min. David Azoulay #Israel pro Orthodoxy
/ Jewish pluralism issue
Multitude of Judaisms viewed as recipe for disaster [Gurion]
More on religious pluralism #Israel issue:

Shas (Hebrew acronym for "Shomrei Sfarad"
ie "Sephardi Guards"
= ultra-orthodox political party in Israel founded by Rav Ovadiah Yosef

1948 establishment of Israel
= riots & persecutions of Jews of Arab countries
= huge numbers Middle Eastern Jews to Israel

Middle Easten Jewish (ie Sephardic Jewish)
ppl did not experience movements for religious reform as Europe & USA did.

Therefore {I think} the Sephardi communities of the Middle East skipped the influence of European Enlightenment movement.

Early Israel leadership largely Ashkenazic.
mid-1970's ethnic divisions b/w Ashkenazic & Sephardic major social issue.

1970s Ashkenazi vs Sephardi social divisions
= establishment of parallel Sephardi religious mainstream political parties.

Sephardic Chief Rabbi Rav Ovadiah Yosef
= founded Shas in 1984
= Shas has own Council of Torah Sages

Moetzet Chachmei HaTorah = "Council of [wise] Torah Sages"
rabbinical body = has ultimate authority in Israeli ultra-orthodox Sephardic & Mizrahi Shas Party

1999 election Shas
= threat to 2 leading parties, for first time.
platform: economic & social discrimination of Sephardi

Shas party strategy:
= focusing on needs of Sephardi Orthodox Israelis
= own govt-funded education: El ha-Ma'ayan

Looks like Shas wants equivalent of a Jewish sharia state:
Shas wants state run according to Halakha, Jewish religious law.

Shas would like 'Haredi Jewish lifestyle' /
looks like pre-Enlightenment Judaism of the Orthodox kind. Rejects secularism.

Looks like Shas party may be struggling. Internal problems 2015?

COMMENT

Interesting bits and pieces re Israel's Shas political party, orthodoxy, religious pluralism, and some of the social & political issues in Israel.

I'll have a hard time remembering all of this. But hoping some of it might sink in with repetition. LOL

[UPDATED - had the wrong council of Torah sages. corrected.]
