Rabbi Wolpe: It’s Good to Die for Our Land

(IsraelNN.com) Rabbi Shalom Dov Wolpe, who was recently condemned for statements comparing senior politicians to collaborators with the Nazis, spoke at a rally in Jerusalem on Thursday against plans to create a Palestinian Authority state in Judea, Samaria, and Jerusalem. “There will be Amona times ten, Amona times one hundred, over every settlement,” Rabbi Wolpe said, referring to the resistance to the violent expulsion of Jews from Amona. “We will fight until the last drop of blood, it is good to die for our land.”

Several protestors carried signs saying “Bush and Olmert Are Bringing Another Holocaust.” One man was arrested for carrying a fake gun.
