A synagogue in Stamford Hill, north London which belongs to the ultra-orthodox and anti-Zionist Neturei Karta sect has been attacked and vandalised.
The group which has a global following is known for his staunch anti-Israel views and regularly burns Israeli flags as part of its organised protests.
The Hackney Gazette reports:
An orthodox Jewish synagogue in Stamford Hill has been attacked and vandalised - not by anti-semetic thugs, but by fellow Jews who regard its leaders' outspoken condemnation of Israel as a betrayal.
Wikipedia explains all about the Neturei Karta:
Neturei Karta (Aramaic: "Guardians of the City") is a group of Haredi (Ultra-Orthodox) Jews who reject all forms of Zionism and actively oppose the State of Israel.
Adherents of Neturei Karta stress those portions in rabbinic literature which state that the Jewish people were first sent into exile from the land of Israel for their sins. Additionally, they maintain that any form of forceful recapture of Israel is a violation of divine will (Babylonian Talmud, tractate Ketuboth 111).
Leaders of the movement hold that the Holocaust was divine punishment for the Jewish people's sin, namely Zionism. In their view, Zionism is a presumptuous affront against God; Neturei Karta teaches that Jews must wait for God to end the exile of the Jews, and that human attempts to do so are sinful. Their websites claims that the Zionists deliberately condemned thousands of Jews to die in Nazi gas chambers, rather than allow them to emigrate to destinations other than Palestine, in order for the Zionists to claim a Zionist State.
They hold that the mass media deliberately downplays their viewpoint and makes them out to be just a few, while there are a large number of Jews with the same or similar beliefs.
They believe that the true Israel can only be reestablished with the coming of the Messiah.
No country , however rich , can afford the waste of its human resources
