Rabbi in Jaffa: According to Jewish law, all residents of Gaza must be killed

Rabbi Eliyahu Mali told his students: “The basic law in a religious war, and in this case in Gaza, is that ‘leave none of it alive.’ Today’s terrorists are the children in the previous military operation who were kept alive. And women are practically the ones who produce the terrorists.”


The head of the Biblical Religious Institute "Yeshivah Shirat Moshe" in Jaffa, Rabbi Eliyahu Mali, incited his students who are serving in the Israeli army after graduating from the yeshivah, to commit massacres against the residents of Gaza, considering that according to Jewish law all residents of Gaza must be killed, and when he was asked about the elderly And children, he replied, “the same applies to them.”


The rabbi's statements came during a conference held in the yeshivah yesterday, according to what the Ynet website reported today, Friday. This rabbi focused on the treatment towards the civilian population in Gaza during the war.


Maley described the war waged by Israel on Gaza as a "religious war." He said, “The basic law in a religious war, and in this case in Gaza, is that ‘you shall not leave any of them alive’ (Deuteronomy), and if you do not kill them? They will kill you. Today’s saboteurs are the children in the previous military operation whom you kept alive.” "Life. And women are practically the ones who produce the saboteurs."


He added, “It is either you or them. No soul can live on the basis of ‘He who is coming to kill you, go ahead and kill him’ (Babylonian Talmud). This applies not only to the 14- or 16-year-old boy, or the 20- or 30-year-old man who points a gun at you, but also to the future generation. This also applies to those who produce the future generation as well. Because in reality there is no difference."


In response to a question about the killing of elderly people in Gaza, Maley claimed, “There is a difference between a civilian population elsewhere and a civilian population in Gaza. In Gaza, according to estimates, 95-98 percent want to exterminate us.”


When asked, "Children too?", this rabbi replied: "It's the same thing. You can't do that with the Torah. Today he's a child, tomorrow he's a fighter. There are no questions here. Today's terrorists were 8-year-old children in the previous military operation. So... "You cannot be satisfied here. Therefore, the ruling on Gaza is different here."


This rabbi said at the beginning of his speech, “Because this is a sensitive issue, and they informed me that it would be published on the Internet, I want to make up my mind and say that the conclusion is that what was stated in the Israeli army’s decrees should only be implemented.”
