News Advisory: 06/05/05 -
Anti-Zionist Orthodox Jews will be protesting the Salute to "Israel" parade, which celebrates the existence of the State of "Israel" being held today in New York.
They will also protest the Israel Day Concert in Central Park, which is to show support of the State of Israel and to rally against the withdrawal of the settlers from Gaza.
The Anti-Zionist Orthodox Jews will be denouncing the very existence of the State of Israel, which is strictly forbidden according to Jewish Law (the Torah).
The Torah expressly forbids the establishment of a Jewish state and commands Jews to remain in exile until released from that exile by G-d Himself, without any human intervention, at which time all nations of the world will live together in peace and serve the One G-d in harmony.
This condemnation of the State of "Israel" also encompasses all the actions committed by the State of "Israel" under the guise of Judaism, whether against the Arab Palestinian people or people of the Jewish faith.
Therefore, the Anti-Zionist Orthodox Jews proclaim that according the Torah, the State of "Israel" should be totally dismantled -- and pray that this should come about speedily and peacefully.
The protest will take place today (June 5) at 5th Ave. at the corner of 59th St. -- at 12:00 p.m.
The protest will proceed to the entrance of Central Park 5th Ave. at the corner of 97th St. -- at 3:30 p.m.
