I participated in a conference in support of Gaza a few days ago in Istanbul, and I was invited to recite one of my poems on its sidelines in the presence of the head of the Hamas political bureau, Ismail Haniyeh, and a large number of leaders of parties and union institutions from various parts of the world, including Jews belonging to Neturei Karta movement. In the poem, I said: "we are against the Jews forever and ever."One of the honorable attendees jumped up and shouted: “Say the Zionists and do not say the Jews.” I immediately responded briefly, saying, God Almighty said: “You will find the people most hostile to God [are Jews.].” I wondered: Should I respond to your words or to the words of the Lord of the Worlds? I continued: The Jews that I meant in my poem are the Jews that God meant in his book.The Jews are Jews in faith, and I will not change the concept of the conflict because ten or a hundred of this type of Jews from the Neturei Karta party went out with me in a demonstration here or there.The Neturei Karta movement does not oppose its Zionist government in our sight; It opposes it because of their different prophecies regarding the establishment of the State of Israel. If the two had the same goal but differed in timing, does this call for me, the slain victim, to put my hand in his?! No and a thousand times no.
Make no mistake - he hates the "Jewish Voice for Peace" Jews just as much.
