Statement from Agudath Israel of America on the passing of Shimon Peres

Agudath Israel of America notes with sadness the passing of Shimon Peres, former Prime Minister and President of the state of Israel, at the age of 93. Throughout his long political career, Shimon Peres displayed great respect for the Orthodox Jewish community and its rabbinic leaders. Mr. Peres repeatedly defended the religious status quo against those who sought to undermine the Jewish character of Israel. On a personal level, he enjoyed a warm relationship with a number of charedi and dati leaders and activists. On one of his last trips to Israel, the late president of Agudath Israel, Rabbi Moshe Sherer, met with then Prime Minister Peres and praised him for his strong support of maintaining the unity of the Jewish people by standing firm in support of the religious status quo. Agudath Israel extends its deep sympathies and sincere condolences to the Peres family. HaMakom yenachem osam b’soch she’ar aveilei Tzion v’Yrushalayim – may Hashem comfort them among the mourners of Tzion and Yerushalayim.

    *** REMEMBERING SHIMON PERES ***
    by Mr. Cohen, 2016/9/29


    Shimon Peres (born 1923 CE, died 2016 CE) never understood that Muslims have always hated Jews, and will always hate Jews forever, because that is what their religion requires them to do.

    Shimon Peres never understood that Muslims have always deceived non-Muslims and will always deceive non-Muslims forever, because that is what their religion requires them to do.

    Shimon Peres never understood that according to Islamic Religious Law [sharia], peace-treaties between Muslims and non-Muslims are worthless, and should be violated as-soon-possible by killing the non-Muslims that the peace-treaty was made with.

    Shimon Peres never understood that Islam cannot tolerate any Jewish state anywhere in the Middle East, regardless of its size or the shape of its borders.

    Shimon Peres never understood that Islam requires that Jews must be constantly oppressed by Muslims and trembling-in-fear before Muslims.

    Shimon Peres never understood that Jews having their own land and their own army is extremely offensive to Islam, regardless of its size.

    Shimon Peres never understood that Islam requires that Jews must be only a little-bit-better-off than slaves.

    Shimon Peres never understood that Muslims view any compromise as humiliation, and humiliation is the worst thing in Muslim culture.

    Shimon Peres never understood that tolerance and forgive-and-forget are NOT part of Muslim culture, especially when dealing with non-Muslims.

    Shimon Peres never understood that many millions of Muslims believe that Jews are apes and pigs.

    Shimon Peres never understood the Muslim belief that the Muslim-Messianic-Era cannot occur until ALL JEWS EVERYWHERE ARE DEAD.

    Since Shimon Peres was a good-hearted person, he was unable to comprehend the amazing wickedness of Islam and Muslims.

    Shimon Peres tried to negotiate peace with Muslims, but with zero understanding of Muslim beliefs.

    The result: The Oslo Accords were a disaster for Israel, and the severe troubles that Israel faces now were caused by it.

  2. Have you got it ALL WRONG about Shimon Peres! This surely displays the convoluted and myopic view (in above post, not the comment by Mr Cohen which is only one-third the sins of SP) of Jewish Life.
