"Hate your Gentile-neighbour as the Jewish Law requires to hate infiltrators"

The following article makes it hard to believe that Judaism is a religion, although Leviticus (19:34), chapter of the Jewish Law, requires the Jews to also love their alien neighbours. However, it seems that this passage does not exist in this way in the Hebrew texts because the Rabbis in Israel rather refer to Leviticus (19:18) when it comes to "love your neighbour". Leviticus 19:18 requires that only the Jewish people are to be loved as neighbours. ("Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge against one of your people, but love your neighbour as yourself. I am the LORD").

The Rabbis from Tel Aviv might be right that the "infiltrators" cause lawlessness and violence in these neighbourhoods and that the deterioration of the Jewish neighbourhoods should be halted. And, of course, the Jewish leaders in Europe agree with the Rabbis from Tel Aviv who signed the 'Edict Forbidding the Rental of Apartments to Infiltrators'. But how come that the same Jewish leaders in Europe demand at the same time that the indigenous populations in Europe must go down and deteriorate by importing masses of foreigners?

After all the Jews are the real infiltrators in the Land of Palestine, now called Israel. The same Rabbis who want to safe Jewish neighbourhoods from deteriorating are keeping the entire population of Palestine in worst conditions as animals are usually kept. The Jewish infiltrators are openly wiping out the native Palestinians and even being rewarded for it with trillions in cash by Western leaders.

Tel Aviv Rabbis: Renting apartments to foreign workers violates Jewish law

Residents of southern Tel Aviv declare war against the predominance of foreign workers in their neighborhoods and enlist rabbis to their cause.

By Dana Weiler-Polak

Twenty-five rabbis from Tel Aviv have signed an edict forbidding the rental of apartments to "infiltrators" and illegal foreign workers.

In a public announcement, the rabbis said that "in the wake of the severe pressure that the neighborhoods of south Tel Aviv face and their abandonment by the government, that begins with the Israeli-Egyptian border and ends with the lawlessness and violence that is taking over south Tel Aviv, the residents of the neighborhoods have decided that the present situation cannot continue".

The authors of a petition on the subject added that "they will not let the neighborhoods in which they grew up to turn into Sudanese neighborhoods, something that has already happened to the Neve Sha'anan neighborhood. After many attempts using acceptable legal means, the residents decided to have the rabbis sign an 'Edict Forbidding the Rental of Apartments to Infiltrators,' and hope that this will halt the deterioration of the neighborhoods."

An announcement that activists intend to post on bulletin boards around the city states that "we, the undersigned, neighborhood rabbis and synagogue rabbis, hereby warn the public of the religious prohibitions and the foreseeable dangers that would result from renting apartments to these people." The rabbis added that "may the efforts of those that toil to defend the Jewish character of the City of Tel Aviv be strengthened."

"This is a sad day for the citizens of Israel, when racism receives legitimization," said Ran Cohen, the Director of the Migrant Refugee and Non-Status Division of the organization Doctors for Human Rights. … Meretz MK Ilan Gil'on said that "again, we are witness to racist incitement on the part of the rabbis. The same rabbis that should be preaching love of Israel and all of humanity are attempting to incite hatred and arouse fear among Israeli society."
