>>Rabbis who oversee Luria's tomb and a seminary in the northern town of Safed are unimpressed with Madonna's musical tribute and see the inclusion of the song about Luria on the album as an attempt by the pop star to profit from his name.<<

Not sure if wealthy singers like Madonna is trying to profit from a rabbi's name. Perhaps more likely she (and some other pop stars) do the similar things by their boss' requests to beatify certain people.

Ex- Mossad Official Admits Israeli Occupation Is the Reason Behind Attacks Against Civilians

GAZA, Palestine, October 10,2005 (IPC+ Agencies)---

Amiram Levin, the then-Deputy Chief of the Israeli Secret Intelligence Service "Mossad, took the unprecedented step in stating that Israel's continued policy of controlling the Palestinian people will inflict a resounding defeat of the Hebrew state.

Levin, who was delivering a speech at Van Laer institute in occupied Jerusalem, said "the urgent question needs to address is not if a crushing defeat will inflict Israel but when such a defeat will bring? After two years, ten years or twenty years? "

"Even when the democracies pretend abidance by ethics, they could not win as long as they occupy another nation," Levin warned.

He considered the Israeli occupation of the Palestinian territories as the sole reason behind the attacks against the Israeli civilians.

Levin, who said to be one of most Generals of the Israeli army in making a good deal in combating the Palestinian resistance movements, also admitted that it is an eventual result that controlling another people and occupying their land produce attacks against the occupier's civilians, which he described as "terrorist" operations.

The ex- deputy chief of Mossad strongly criticized the command of the Israeli army due to the pursuit of intimidation, harassment and abuse against the Palestinian civilians. He gave an exemplary wrongdoing by the Israeli soldiers manning a military checkpoint. They confiscated thyme herbs from elderly Palestinian women while they were returning back home from a farmland. He looked at the incident as unbelievable.

"How we reached to such an extent as a commander of a contingent and a commander of battalion has implementing silently such orders and everyone keep his nose to the grindstone?." Levin wondered.

He sees such practices are only look like those acts of "bunch of criminals" not behaviors of a state army. He also placed the responsibility of such acts squarely at the high command of the Israeli army's shoes'

"Either the army command did not perceive that the occupation means of controlling another people, including the military checkpoint, muddles up the Israeli society and expedite the defeat of the state or this command is afraid of recognizing this fact at the political level as a historic certainty." Levin remarked.

He added "I expect army command to say that the wall built by Israel in the West Bank represent a suppressive measure and a humiliation against the civilian inhabitants, the wall has never put the Israeli society close to a political reconciliation of the conflict."

Levin believed that Israel is misinforming the world when its army has wrecked havoc to its landscape in the West Bank under the pretext of "combating terror"

It's important to say that Amiram Levin was appointed as deputy chief of the Israeli Mossad in the era of the Israeli premier Benjamin Netanyahu. Before being joined in the Mossad in assume several leading posts in the Israeli army. He also led the elite unit of the Israeli army " Sirt Mitkal " during which he took part in many assassination operations against the leaders of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO).

"When Jews see themselves as superior to all other human beings... they are claiming license to do what is forbidden to others."

the true Messiah Jesus of Nazareth was revealed two thousand years ago and prophesied to the unbelieving Jews regarding their acceptance of their false mashiach or "messiah".

I receive not honour from men. But I know you, that ye have not the love of God in you. I am come in my Father's name, and ye receive me not: if another shall come in his own name, him ye will receive. (John 5:41-43)

notice how this evil kabbalist elder speaks of "our" messaih, as if he is only for the Jews. the true Messiah Jesus of Nazareth came for the whole world, not just the antichrist Jews.

Leading Kabbalist Urges Jews to Israel - More Disasters Coming
israelnationalnews.com

Monday, October 17, 2005 / 14 Tishrei 5766

On Thursday night, Rabbi Yitzhak Kaduri said, "Jews must come to the land of Israel to receive our righteous Mashiach (Messiah), who has begun his influence and will reveal himself in the future."

It was during the meal after the 24-hour Yom Kippur fast that several followers approached the 104-year-old leading known Kabbalist Rabbi in Israel. A family member asked him about his remarks last month regarding natural disasters in the world. The Rabbi said that the disasters are directly related to the redemption process, which will culminate in the coming of the Mashiach.

The Rabbi added that in the near future, another wave of natural disasters will strike the world.

Last week before Yom Kippur, Rabbi Yitzhak Kaduri's grandson, Rabbi Yosef Kaduri had a private audience with the elder Rabbi, along with an Arutz-7 journalist who is closely linked to Kaduri's court. Rabbi Yosef Kaduri said to his grandfather, "Not many Jews are coming from overseas. Why should they come?" The Kabbalist answered, "Because of impending danger." Rabbi Yitzhak Kaduri then added a quote from Deuteronomy 4:15: "Be extremely protective of your lives."

According to Rabbi Yosef Kaduri and the Arutz-7 journalist, the Kabbalist elder referred to a known esoteric concept of a "struggle between the oceans," and said that the large oceans [Haokeanus hagadol] would strike the world. Rabbi Yosef Kaduri said that grandfather's warning includes were Jews of the Americas.

The elder Rabbi Kaduri told the two that on Yom Kippur he would have more things to say.

During the afternoon Mincha prayer on Yom Kippur, the Kabbalist scholar surprised his students and fellow worshippers with secrets relating to the coming of the Mashiach. During the service, Rabbi Kaduri lowered his head and entered a deep mystical concentration which lasted uninterrupted for some 45 minutes. The Rabbi covered his eyes as though reciting the Sh'ma prayer and only his lips were seen moving.

Students who thought the elderly Rabbi was suffering an attack of sort tried to communicate with him, but he did not break his intense concentration for a moment, even to nod.

Only after some 45 minutes, the Rabbi raised his head and looked around the room at the students and worshippers who were gathered at his Nachalat Yitzhak Yeshiva, in the Bucharim neighborhood of Jerusalem. With a broad smile on his face familiar to his students when he has a revelation, he declared, "With the help of G-d, the soul of the Mashiach has attached itself to a person in Israel" [In the original Hebrew: 'Hit'abra bezrat hashem nishmat mashiach b'adam m'yisrael'].

At the conclusion of his short declaration, murmuring was heard among the congregants as the Kabbalists' words were repeated for those who could not hear.

Rabbi Kaduri has spoken repeatedly about the Final Redemption and referred to the calculations of the Vilna Gaon regarding the redemption, which appear in the Gaon's writings and are considered difficult to decipher.

According to the writings of the Vilna Gaon, a sign of the Gog and Magog war is its breaking out on the Jewish holiday of Hoshana Rabba (the 7th day of the Sukkot holiday), just after the conclusion of the 7th or shemittah [agricultural sabbatical] year.

On September 24, 2001, Channel One Israel TV broadcast an item on what Torah and other mystics were saying in the wake of the World Trade Center attack. Speaking from the room adjacent to where Rabbi Yitzhak Kaduri receives visitors, Arutz Sheva Hebrew radio showhost Yehoshua Meiri, a close confident of the Kabbalist, explained to the cameras Rabbi Kaduri's understanding of the events based on the calculations of the Vilna Gaon: "On Hashanah Rabba, the actual war of Gog and Magog will commence and will last for some seven years," said Meiri. [ Click here to view the Channel One clip in Hebrew and Rabbi Kaduri's prediction communicated by Meiri at the 1:40 minute mark.]

Precise to the minute, 13 days later on October 7th as the sun was setting and the Jewish holiday of Hoshana Rabba was ushered in, US and British forces began an aerial bombing campaign targeting Taliban forces and Al-Qaida. That year was the Hoshana Rabba just after the shemitta year of 5761.

According to the calculation, a 7-year count from that Hoshana Rabba is the date of a major revelation associated with Mashiach. Those close to Rabbi Kaduri say in his name that the 5th year of this redemption process is now beginning.

They explain that the above-mentioned "attaching" of a righteous soul to a person of Israel makes the recipient a candidate for Mashiach, but not yet the actual Mashiach. This person gets an additional soul which finds expression in the adding of a letter to his name, without changing its pronunciation. The elder Rabbi Kaduri says that the letter added to this person's name is "vav" and the secret of his power is a Star of David hidden in his attire.

Before he reached the age of 13, the young Yitzhak Kaduri studied with the renowned Rabbi Yosef Chaim (the Ben Ish Chai) of Iraq. Rabbi Kaduri tells that the Ben Ish Chai blessed him that he would live to see the revelation of the Mashiach. The Ben Ish Chai passed away, and Rabbi Yitzhak Kaduri immigrated to Israel soon after.
