”Sanction against Israeli goods must become global,” Rabbi Aharon Cohen, a Neturei Karta member from Manchester, England said, speaking in a conference on “Palestine: Duty of Nations” here in Tehran on Monday.
“We must uproot the regime (Israel), sanctions are not effective unless they are global,” Cohen reiterated.
Condemning Israel’s onslaughts on the defenseless people of Palestine, Rabbi Cohen noted, “We must display that Zionism is bad for all, both for the Palestinians and the Jews as well as the whole world.”
Reminding that Zionism is against Judaism, he stated, “Anti-Zionism does not mean anti-Semitism.”
A glance through the news proves this simple fact that they were free to speak their own words and they did during the conference in Tehran.
There are a lot of well respected people who sympathizes with the NK, though not publicaly.
…And they were free to speak their own words… And they did… During the conference in Tehran; Of course they were free to speak against Israel in Tehran. They were probably treated to a nice lunch, too. If I went to Moscow and declared that Joseph Stalin (yms”h) was the sun of nations and the father of the republics, I’d probably be treated nice by the GRU (predecessor of the KGB) as well! Israel shows magnanimity by not reacting and ignoring those vermin. (A yid blaabt a Yid. Alle Shventz meyg’n zoog’n voos zay vill’n) Guess what, those low life creatures. When they’ll be in trouble (and they will. Despite all the posturing by that chamor, soyne Yisroel in Tehran) who’ll risk their lives to rescue them, if not the Mossad???!!!
this aharon cohen i not like the name off “aharon h’cohen” if any one see him or finds him my get rid of him he is not a jew he is from the baryunim whom are thing to destroy the jewish nation so it is our duty to rid the jewish nation off people that would like to destroy us
Cohen is the new Friedman.
Neturei Kata are a bunch of dogs. We don’t say this because we disagree with their approach but the way they are ruining klal yisroel they hsould be thrown out of every jewish neighborhood. We also urge any newsoutlet which calls themselves “jewish news” or being our “spokespeople” to not even write anything about them. All your doing is giving legitmiacy when writing anything about neturei Karta.
As far as we are concerneed they are dogs and these Neuturie Karta dogs are todays , lahavdil, our eruv rav of todays ilk.
Nothing good has come out of Nturie karta and not one jew has lived a better day of their life in Iran or other third world countries because of their stupid public views.
It just shows what became of the UK, they let this pig live free on the streets and preach hate, but Savge he cant come to the UK!! SICK PLACE!
Why grace this guy with the title “rabbi”? – because of his beard? because of his learning? these NK lunatics stand shoulder-to-shoulder with those who wish to kill Jews and destroy us as a people.
There are no more than 20 NK families in England and they get an inordinate amount of publicity. They should all be put into cherem and that includes by the Jewish news agencies.
I would put it differently: “There are a lot of stupid people who sympathize with the NK, though not publicly”.
Respected! Respected by whom, by Ahmadinejad? The Mishnah says Eizeh Mechubod? Hamechabed Es Habriyois. Briyos means Klal Yisroel, not Vilda Briyos (Pereh Odom Bla”z). To me and hopefully to you, a respected person is someone who the Gedolei Yisroel respects. Which Godol BeYisroel respects him or the NK? Does Harav Elyashiv respect them? Does Harav Chaim Kaneyevsky respect them? Does the Skulener Rebbe respect them? Pray tell me, WHO respects them?
He is such an idiot not realizing that his own immidate family and his own NK people will loose “Parnasa”
I’m sure the shin bet is on his case already.
Yemach shemo vezichro.
It is the media coverage that keeps these guys going.
If you write about him, please write how much he gets paid to show up. (I understand it’s not pay, only expense reimbursement)
Why do you call him a Rabbi? – a beard means nothing.
His family should be ashamed to show their faces in public. We had an uncle who nebach also lost his mind but we had the decency to have him put away with others of his kind where he cannot hurt himself or anyone else and gets as much treatment as there is available r”l when a person’s mind snaps like that. It is disgusting that the family hasn’t done anything for the poor guy.
Neboch, it is like a guy who loses control of his bowels and bladder and needs to be kept in adult diapers so he isn’t embaressed in front of the whole world that he can’t control what comes out of him. What comes out of this guy’s mouth is even worse than this. At least they should put him where no one else hears him and thinks he was this way before he became sick.
Neturei Karta is simply evil in a beard.
Place these idiots in ‘chairem’, once and for all.
His Tallis, Tzitzis, Mezuzos, Matzah, Seforim are most probably all made in Eretz Yisroel. For a Jew to boycott Eretz Yisroel is to cut oneself off from Yiddishkeit.
this guy is totaly out of his mind, and need to get himself checked out by a doctor immediadely, (in the meen time plz take off your jewish levish so no one should recognize u as a jew)
He is an Alter Kracher with zero Seichel.
Esav sone et Yakkov, is well known. But these ppl are not esav. But to what can u compere them to (lelef alfei havdalos) to Yosef and his ten brothers. Yosef reprsenting todays Klal Yisroel who dreams of a bright future and the coming of meshiach. However these NK are jealous of their Brothers in Klal Yisroel who follow the gedolim and abide by Halcha. And so the Nk want to sell us out. they well continue to sell us out over and over again untill we end up as slaves or worse.
I hope they realize what they are doing wrong, Let’s pray for hashme to open their eyes and see that esav dosent care which jew it kills.
Just for the Record I don’t like the zionstis much either, but if our gedolim can live in Eretz Yisroel then we can follow them.
Moderation is the Key, Striking the proper balance is the question!
It was May 15, 1942 and Khof Cheth Iyar
He is a RODEF! He is insentivized by Money, clearly, giving legitimacy to people who want to kill Yiddin! He is the Sitra Achra!
If you really consider the facts then the NK and the present day Zionists are on the same level. The (left) Zionists call for giving back Israel to the Arabs. They call and push for uprooting Jews from the majority of Israel.
They promote sanctions against Israel unless they they uproot more Jews.
The only people who advocate uprooting Jews from their homes today in the world are NK, Zionists (Sharon , Olmert, Livni, Merertz etc.)
In short the real Jew self haters are the NK and the left winged Jews both in Israel and world wide (take Rahm Immanuel for example).
These blasted ne’turai karta are nothing more than the eirav rav from Mitzraim!!!!!
this man is disturbed in my opinion…we nevertheless need to show respect to outlyer opinions as long as it is with intent to sanctify God’s name…here unfortunately, this man brings dishonor and evil to the jewish people..i dont know his intent and will give him the benefit of the doubt however his actions are evil, wrong and can potentially can cost jewish lives in israel and the diaspora…accordingly, he and his ilk must be cast out and repudiated…they need to be shamed in their comunities..i beleive his actions desecrate the name of the Almighty in public… the mainstream jewish community needs to publicly and privately apply pressure to these demented nk activists and cut them down financially, morally, and encircle their communities with massive pressure until they bend.. ….the vast majority of religious jews support israel and they therefore must publicly follow suit.. perhaps these nk men who espouse anti-israel hatred are mentally ill and in need of medication or confiement in a mental facility for psychological treatment…we need to pray for them too..
while I dont believe we should associate with the NK because they took part in a holocaust denial conference. (Hence why the Rabbonite issued a charem on them…) I do however 100% agree with their anti zionist political stance! I am a Torah Jew and as a follower of Torah it is clear that zionism against Torah!
In Manchester where this animal lives, he is known as Achmad Cohen. He is not allowed to daven in shul and he has been banned from being buried in the Beis Olam.
They all have already a front place in hell
How can a jew hate so much another jew? why don’t the writers here observe the mitzva of v’u’havto l’ray’achu komoichu ? Remember hashem will in return do the same to you. So don’t write bad things about another jew.
This guy Cohen should be restricted from entering any Jewish place including from his nephews shul Yanky Fried the rebbe of Manchester UK shul on Wellington Street.
these NK nut jobs are harming the anti Zionist movements. the same as the greenpeace nuts are harming the moderate environmentalists. they make the whole movement look like radical meshiguim…
This article gets more reaction than practically anything else ever posted on Vos Iz Neias, despite the fact that people are constantly saying that no one should or does pay attention to the “nuts” of NK. Why so much reaction? Why? Especially when the Zionists already have all the money, all the weapons, all the Congress, all the rabbis, all the land, all the power. WHAT could anyone care about NK for? It sounds like Haman, who said “KOL ZEH EYNO SHOVEH LI……..” Could it be?!
Who paid for his trip to Iran? Hashem is watching it all of course. This Jewish Jew hater is going to get his punishment whenever and how ever Hashem decides.
The Black people also have their Uncle Toms.
Wow! he has a white beard so that means he is wonderful man. Right? Not.
He is a bum, who like some other Jews, hates his heritage. Ever notice how some people rebel by not going to shul, and some by smoking on Shabbos, and now we have this dude and his pals who all hate Jews, so they rebel in their own way to make it look like they are idealists. Guess what? They are rebels who hate us all. They are also against the United States which supports Israel. These bums should all get jobs writing for the New York Times, because they hate the U.S.A. and they hate Israel.
I don’t like what NK are doing, it was never before done in our history, however the zionists religios or not, are a much bigger damage for klal yisroel. berochniyos and begashmiyos, beruchniyos with all the yidishe kinder who went off the derech as a result of them, both in europe bfore WWII and after in EY, B’gashmiyos, let me put it simple.i live in Montreal, 15 years ago, I was not afraid to go in the arab neighborhood (Parc-Ex for those who know) even in the middle of the night, today I’m afraid even during daytime.
The Shulchan Aruch (Code of Jewish Law) states, that when one comes to give tzedaka (charity), the poor of Eretz Yisrael take precedence over the poor of the diaspora. But you are telling people not to support Eretz Yisrael. You are going against the shulchan aruch, Rabbi Cohen.
The Iranians know that he is really an Israeli spy.involved in counterespionage
the rabbi’s protests to this is DEAFENING!!!!!!
Some one pointed out that this Cohen is a Baal TeShuva.
Well to me he sounds very much as a Baal Aveiro!
ASIDIN LITEN ES HADIN; No need to aggravate oneself from such reshuim. IS DIN V’IS DAYNE B’YISROEL!
If these guys think they are helping Am Yisrael by appeasing anit-semites etc, I’d like to know how many times theyve been to Japan , to get the boys out of jail! ah, suddenly they go quiet…………..
He seems to be a very nice man, why all the hatred? let’s all be Dan Lekaf Zchus. I’m sure he has his point of view.
Rabbi Ahron Cohen, is a well respected man here in England to those who know him, there are reasons for what he does, he is happy to explain you those reasons and he can tell you and prove to you those who are surporting him, it may help for all those who are getting taken back from his good work to try and give him a call and speak with him. Knowing him as a very inteligent man he will not leave you with a question un answered. We as in the frum hemishe community are lucky to have him around, the benifits what we have from his work is unimaginable, the hate of the arabs to frum people is very differant since Rabbi Ahron Cohen has shown them weather true or not that all Jews do not surport Zionists.
According to one of the NK sites he was born in Hungary. Who knows; perhaps he has become deranged due to old age or constant obsession with his “ideals”.
