Our activities in promoting justice are based on the teachings of Biblical and Judaic sources on how we as ordained Rabbis, as Jews and as Human beings should relate to the “other”. Human Rights are Universal They belong to everyone, regardless of their race, sexuality, citizenship, gender, nationality, ethnicity, or abilities. Human Rights are Inherent We are all born with human rights. They belong to people simply because they are human ******************** We could learn alot from these Rabbis, do you share my view? "rabbinic voice of conscience in Israel" Do posters feel they are doing a good job? Is there a islamic website that is in on a par with this website? A site that promotes rspect, rights, & freedoms.
Something i just googled , its not Imam's on human rights but its similar. http://www.bepress.com/mwjhr/
"Each of these tasks is illustrated by how movements for the rights of women and sexual minorities have come to impact on the transnational Muslim world and international human rights." Yes its in the right direction, but its unfortunate that westerners or non muslims compiled it, do muslims recognize human rights? Of women, or sexual minorities, i mean how can they scream for the rights of the palestine people yet they most muslim countries give next to no rights for women or sexual minorites. A news story today was how young muslim women in the middle east are forced to marry old men who have money by there familes, this one girl in aghanistan was beaten on a daily basis by husband & his sons, she left him, now she has been accused of adultery, apparently when a yound muslim woman leaves her grandad husband, the first thing he accuses her of is adultery, this lady went to the police they arrested her & put her in jail for a month. I really dont know how muslims can cry out for the rights of palestine people all year round, yet 60% of the populations(women & sexual minorities) have next to no rights. Here we have rabbi's trumpeting human rights, how about a cleric or a iman doing so aswell, did not mohammed teach the rights of all, or did he just say men?
I see your awake brian & online getting ready for work no doubt, i putthis thread here for you whats your take on these peace loving rabbi's??????
Great work. It actually shows that not all religious Jews are orthodox ultra Zionist Jews bent on exterminating Palestinians.. added to the work of Israeli Newspapers and journalists like the Haaretz and Amira Hass shows that like muslims, we are not all extemists. Its more of a question of Size, didn't first come the right of a people (african Americans in the 60s) then the rights of the Women (70s to 80s) ? Australia signed its Anti sexual Harassment act in 89 i think.. it was after the charter on human rights. If you get rights for Palestinians, i think rights for women would follow as well. That site was put together with the assistance of muslims living in the west... As the world becomes more globalised, then maybe the Islamic religion can evolve as well. The question is, can it evolve without become like what modern Christianity is today ? The next generation of young Muslims in the west, Educated in the west, are more liberal and open minded hold men and women in equal respect.
It is good , but however on further analysis into this site , all that glisters is not gold Vincent I became disturbed on further reading into this site that : The old paranoia that Palestinians will get their state worries our Rabbis , seems their vision of human rights does not extend to Palestinians . Rabbis having an over inflated opinion of Israel self importance as Americas first line of defence against fanatic Arabs , and that if Israel is destroyed America is next , thereby linking each others fate . Supposedly peaceful Rabbis finger crossing themselves in the hopes America bombs Iran and Pakistan into vast parking lots to preserve the promised land for the Chosen people . And ending the article in the whole world is against us spiel . And a final chilling warning from our Rabbis that the Rightwing which spawned the mass homicidal maniac of Dr Baruch Goldstein is right . No thank you Vincent the Rabbis concern of Human Rights is a mask for gullible people to swallow this is actually a Wolf in sheeps clothing , a site of religious bigotry and intolerance to other Human Beings .
Sorry i didn't spot it for myself. Thanks Foley. I wish i had the time to read through the site but it was at like 12 am AEST. Well, I guess you can't be an imam or a rabbi, and support human rights for ALL.
well rabbis are usually the rabid dogs of israel in terms of extremism, but you uncovered the truth, obviously alot of pretty words, with there own propaganda mixed in. Well done cheif inspector foley, there is nothing worse than a man of god preaching propaganda or talking about war strategies, there very under the table about it to, unlike some muslim clerics or imans who do it live on television & are more direct with there hatred. I'm disgusted brian, thanks for making me streetwise, I have now cancelled my monthly rabbi porn playgirl magazine, & i am getting my pony tails cut, & i am going out now to kill a wild pig in the jungles of thailand & gorge myself on pork all night, oink, oink.
Thank you. I did uncover the truth and we all now agree these guys are wack jobs. But your and Brian's posts reek, no are, rabidly anti-semitic.
"Rabbis for Human Rights Slam Israel in Durban and Raise Funds for the PLO David Bedein On August 31, 2001, horrific reports flowed into Jerusalem that the PLO was orchestrating a massive anti-Israel campaign at the special UN Anti-Racism conference that had been convened in Durban, South Africa. While more than twenty Jewish organizations organized a lobby to support Israel in Durban, one Jewish group joined forces with the PLO to support the idea that Israel, was indeed, an apartheid, racist regime." now brian after reading this article abu afak or kiwi 123 provided, i am now tempted to super glue my pony tails back on, whats going on brian, are you talking shit here, or is kiwi?
The story from Kiwi123 or Abu-fak is a hack piece , both these organizations trade insults , the basis of it was Rabbis for Human Rights attended Durban’s anti racism conference . Rabbis for Human Rights never gave any money to the PLO . As I said Vincent , Rabbis for Human Rights are Wolves in Sheep clothing , there supposed "Human Rights agenda " is really a front so people get hoodwinked .
You're not only anti-Israel, you're even against Jews who are against Jews. These Wack jobs are giving money to the PLO Carte Blanche- to Martyrs/suicide Bombers. It's true guy- they're not anti-Israel Leftists, like those Israeli 'peace groups', they're really a Jewish Plot to make you think even Some of them are Humane. Which YOU know can't be. We understand you perfectly.
