Why most Jews are SILENCED by the MEDIA “They stole land from the Palestinians and they stole identity from Jews.” In this remarkable conversation, Rabbi Elhanan Beck — a Palestinian-born rabbi from Stamford Hill, London — shares his powerful story and deep insights into the clear distinction between Judaism and Zionism. He explains why true Judaism is rooted in faith, humility, and obedience to God, while Zionism, as he argues, transformed a spiritual religion into a political and national project divorced from its sacred origins.

Offering to the deity Kohomba in the Vatican: Yesterday's celebration of the 60th anniversary of Nostra Aetate featured various rituals, performances and testimonies. The opening featured a Kandyan Dance, also known as the Uda Rata Natum. This ritual from Sri Lanka is dedicated to the pagan deity Kohomba, and is intended to invoke "protection" and "healing". According to legend, the ritual was introduced by pagan deities or celestial beings. The Vatican’s speaker announced: 'Its origins date back to Buddhist rituals, in which dance was offered as an act of devotion to bring blessings, harmony and peace.'
The Vatican hosted on October 28 an event to mark 60years of Vatican II's 'Nostra Aetate.' «Le origini [della Kandyan Dance] risalgono ai rituali legati al buddhismo, dove la danza veniva offerta come atto di devozione per portare benedizione, armonia e pace.» → “The origins [of the Kandyan Dance] go back to rituals tied to Buddhism, where the dance was offered as an act of devotion to bring blessing, harmony, and peace.”

Vatican honoured a pseudo-divine “Mother of Africa”: At the Vatican’s 60th-anniversary celebration of Nostra Aetate on 28 October, an African performance blended Christian and Pagan elements with a prayer written for the event by Vatican Radio journalist Filomeno Lopez from Guinea-Bissau. It invoked the “Supreme God”, but described him as “the God of the ancestors.” Furthermore, the prayer introduced “Mama Lucy,” portrayed as an “African and universal mother” functioning like a Mother-Earth figure found in other pagan spiritualities. The “love letter of God” was said to be “written on the womb of Mama Lucy.” The poem prayed for peace “with the help of the divine and of the ancestors” and directly addressed the dead: “My dear ancestors… honor and glory to you.”
"Satan’s masterstroke consists in this: obtaining from us an irrational assent in the face of the evidence of his deceptions, which we recognize as such but nevertheless accept as true, in an act of mad, suicidal pride." - The Catholic Shepherd
