Lior wrote that during any war where the Jewish people deem themselves to be under attack, they are legally allowed to fight back against the nation from which the attack came from.
"Therefore, in a time of war, the attacked nation is permitted to punish the enemy population with whatever measures it deems proper, like blocking supplies or electricity. It may bomb the entire area based on the judgment of the war minister and not wantonly put soldiers at risk," he wrote, adding that "deterrent measures to exterminate the enemy" are allowed, Haaretz reported.
However, his comments did not go unnoticed from those who disagree with his views. After his ruling was published, Mertz Zahava Gal-On, head of a left-wing Israeli party, asked Attorney General Yehuda Weinstein to launch an investigation.
"Rabbi Dov Lior's racist comments long ago lost the protection of the right to free expression. These remarks follow his racist comments through the years, among them his many comments before the murder of [Yitzhak] Rabin and support for Baruch Goldstein," Gal-On wrote to Weinstein. Goldstein was the man who gunned down 29 Muslim worshippers in Hebron in 1994.
Israel's military campaign in Gaza over the past 15 days has so far resulted in the deaths of more than 600 Palestinians, many of them women and children, with more than 4,500 wounded.
In comparison, around 30 Israelis have been killed in the war, although Hamas puts the figure at 40.
Lior is a staunch supporter of the settlement movement; he believes that all land between the Jordan and the Mediterranean belongs to the Jewish race, and that Palestinians have no right to live there.
"All of those who believe in the Torah know that this land was promised solely to these people. There is no room for another national entity in this place. There has never been a state belonging to another people here. It belongs exclusively to the Jewish people," Lior wrote, as quoted by Deutsche Welle.
Comment: If the land is captured by psychopathic means, will it become Holy? If the God of Torah recommends these psychopathic means, will he become God or Devil?
Lior was the spiritual teacher of Yigal Amir, who assassinated Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin in 1995. Amir was opposed to Rabin's signing of the Oslo peace accords.
Lior was arrested and questioned in 2011 for endorsing a book sanctioning the killing of non-Jews.

"Lior wrote that during any war where the Jewish people deem themselves to be under attack, they are legally allowed to fight back against the nation from which the attack came from."
This is disgusting, especially considering the not-so-passive passive-aggressive attitude embedded within Jewish culture regarding 'others'.
Is not the same consideration applicable to the Palestinians??? Of course not. They are, to use a recent phrase from an Israeli politician, "little snakes".

"If the God of Torah recommends these psychopathic means, will he become God or Devil?"
The Gnostics taught that Yahweh was another aspect of Yaldabaoth who,as demiurge of this reality, was in fact what is now called the Devil.
So, already the God of the Torah can be considered the Devil.
So, already the God of the Torah can be considered the Devil."
So, they put faith in "Yahweh", and you put faith in "The Gnostics", therefore creating a demiurge for yourself. If you don't see the process, I can sell you a very nice fake Rolex watch if you would like to buy.
Of course, the concept of "Rolex watch" is pretty much fake in the first place. LOL.
This guy does NOT speak for all Jews, much less all Israelis.
According to the article, "However, his comments did not go unnoticed from those who disagree with his views. After his ruling was published, Mertz Zahava Gal-On, head of a left-wing Israeli party, asked Attorney General Yehuda Weinstein to launch an investigation. "
The usual propaganda states that one side MUST be good, and therefore, the "other side" MUST be entirely evil.
Those of you who have read Jacques Ellul's "Propaganda" know that stereotypes and demonizing and dehumanizing are one of the ways to persuade others to "think" correctly.
So if you are being brainwashed to believe that Jewish people are "evil", ask yourself: WHAT IS THE MONEY TRAIL? Who benefits?
The US weapons manufacturers Lockheed Martin and others are supplying weapons to Israel, Quatar and Saudi Arabia. Convincing you to HATE either side is in their best interests.
What we need is to BAN ARMS SALES.
TAKE THE RED PILL.... wake up!!!! "Anti-Zionism" is another ploy to sell you WAR!
