The Chief Rabbi of South Africa exposes how the ICC, a tool of the autocratic regimes who dominate the UN, targets free countries like Israel for defending themselves while shielding tyrannies that exploit global institutions.

In this video, Chief Rabbi of South Africa discusses why Israel is being attacked, the implications for democracies, and why the free world must reject these illegitimate institutions.

Highlights:

1/ The ICC’s illegitimacy and its use as a weapon against democracies.

In this speech the Chief Rabbi of South Africa delivers a powerful message of defiance, resilience, and hope. He reflects on the anniversary of the October 7th attack and emphasises how Israel’s battle is more than a struggle for survival - it’s a stand for global freedom and democracy. He also highlights the bravery of Israeli soldiers and civilians in the face of terrorism and oppression.

As Israel confronts Hamas, Hezbollah, and Iran, it moves closer to securing a safer world for all, and the Chief Rabbi of South Africa calls for global recognition of Israel’s vital role in defending the very foundations of civilization and its total victory.

What to expect:

1/ Reflections on the October 7 attack and the resilience of the Israeli people.

2/ The dismantling of Hamas and Hezbollah as a turning point for the Middle East.

3/ A call for support from world leaders: why Israel’s victory is a victory for humanity.

4/ The global implications of Israel's fight against terrorism, tyranny, and violent extremists.

5/ The Chief Rabbi’s powerful reminder: Israel is not seeking sympathy, but action.

Israel stands poised to shift the balance of power in the world towards the forces of freedom and democracy.

In this episode, the Chief Rabbi of South Africa reflects on Israel's incredible resilience following the October 7th attack. He explores how Israel's fight is not only about its own survival but also about shaping a future for the free world. The video also dives deep into the unwavering courage of everyday Israelis, from soldiers on the frontlines to civilians risking everything for the cause of liberty.

Highlights include:

1/ Uplifting stories of Israeli bravery during and after the October 7th attack.

2/ How Israel's tactics have crippled Iran's proxies, including Hamas and Hezbollah, marking a pivotal moment for the Middle East.

3/ Israel’s unmatched commitment to ethical warfare, maintaining the highest civilian-to-combatant ratio.

4/ Why Israel's victory matters for the global fight for freedom.

5/ Israel’s enduring role as a “light unto the nations,” refusing to be seen as victims.

A ceasefire in the Hamas-Israel war is not just misguided, but a dangerous betrayal of justice. The international community’s calls for negotiation ignore the harsh reality of Hamas’ violent extremism and Israel’s right to defend itself. True justice demands not compromise, but the defeat of those who seek to destroy peace and freedom.

The Chief Rabbi argues against the international push for a ceasefire, insisting that it not only legitimizes Hamas' violent actions but also abandons Israel at a critical moment. Instead, global institutions and governments should call for unconditional surrender and the release of all hostages, ensuring that Hamas is held accountable.

Highlights include:

1/ The dangers of treating Hamas and Israel as moral equals, and why the concept of a ceasefire undermines Israel's right to defend itself.

2/ The Chief Rabbi's urgent call for the international community to demand Hamas' unconditional surrender, rejecting any compromises.

3/ A critique of Western nations, including the US and UK, for limiting military support to Israel while pursuing misguided ceasefire negotiations.

4/ A comparison between Hamas’ actions and historical examples of evil that demanded total defeat

5/ A strong warning to the West: failing to support Israel unequivocally in this war could lead to dire consequences for the Western world itself.

Now is the time for religious leaders to be bold - to come to the defence of society, to speak up for Western values and freedoms.

The Chief Rabbi of South Africa critically discusses how Pope Francis and the Archbishop of Canterbury have responded—or failed to respond—to threats against Christianity and Western values, particularly in the context of their positions on Israel and the recent ICJ ruling that challenges Israel’s legitimacy.

Highlights include:

1/ The quiet response of Pope Francis and Archbishop Welby to the growing threats of radical ideologies and global unrest.

2/ The Archbishop’s endorsement of the ICJ ruling against Israel and its contradiction with Biblical teachings.

3/ The Chief Rabbi’s critique of religious leadership in the face of modern-day challenges, comparing current leaders with historical figures like Pope John Paul II.

4/ The rising danger to Europe’s values due to the passive stance of its religious leaders, especially regarding Israel’s struggle for security.

5/ A powerful call to action urging Pope Francis and Archbishop Welby to defend Christians, Israel, and Western civilization before it’s too late.
