Rabbi Meir Kahane
Feb 25th, 2009 by ShandaMeister
An American Orthodox rabbi and one-time Knesset member, Kahane founded two movements, the Jewish Defense League in the US and the Kach political party in Israel. After the Goldstein massacre the party was outlawed and Kahane was removed from the Knesset. The foundations of his movement were Greater Israel, A Jewish state within biblical borders, the expulsion of the Palestinians and a Jewish theocratic state based on the Halakha. He emigrated to Israel after the police began to investigate his involvement in a series of terrorist bombings. He was assassinated in 1990 at the New York Marriot hotel. In 2000, his son and daughter in law were were murdered on their way to their settlement home Kfar Tapuach with more than 60 machine gun rounds entering their van.
Shande: Kahane is the founder of the only Jewish organization on the State Department’s list of foreign terrorist organizations, way to go. This homegrown despicable racist and terrorist had the nerve to call secular Jews hypocritical racist. Meanwhile the only victim of the terror inspired by his words was a Jewish secretary. He doesn’t necessarily deserve to be included amongst the greats in the history of Israeli political assassination. Perhaps worst of all, he tutored Arlo Guthrie for his bar mitzvah.
