5.0 out of 5 stars A landmark work, November 2, 2004

By 

Seth J. Frantzman (Jerusalem, Israel) - See all my reviews
(HALL OF FAME REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   

This review is from: They Must Go (Hardcover)

I must admit I was a little bit skeptical opening this book, due to its reputation for intolerance. But the very first page will make you realize just how important it is. This is a plea, a loud call to save Israel before it is to late. It is not the much maligned ignorant intolerant ranting that it is accused of. Rather this enlightening work, written by hand and smuggled out of a Ramle prison, calls for the separation of the Arabs and Israelis as the only hope to a true and lasting peace. Anyone who has been to Israel will understand that this is necessary. But for those still taken in by what Kahane called the `myth' of coexistence this book will explain in excruciating, terrifying detail the truth behind the coexistence of the 1920s and 30s, the endless riots and assaults on Jewish refugees and Jewish villages. Separate chapters detail the transfer of Germans from Poland and Czechslovakia after World War Two, as well as enlightening paragraphs on the India-Pakistan transfers of 1948 and the transfer in Cyprus in 1974 and even among the Turks and Greeks in 1921. But this book also tells the dismal stories of places where transfer did not take place such as Sri Lanka or Burma, where strife, hatred, intolerance and racism have resulted.

Of course it is easy to label this book hateful, for most of us raised in the West it will seem incredibly intolerant and primitive, but this book understands the truth about how things really are in 90% of the world. For anyone interested in the survival of Israel, for anyone wanting to understand the modern day Israeli right, and for anyone wanting a totally new view of the conflict this is a must buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Logic and Clarity, May 12, 2002

By 

Adam (AZ, USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: They Must Go (Hardcover)

Kahane's politics, while controversial and highly criticized, are made clear and concise in this work. Once having read this book, the reader has no doubt as to Kahane's philosophy and ideology on the matter of the Arabs in Israel. He uses logic and clarity in the presentation of his politics and does an incredible service to his readers with the use of historical precedent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fabulous. Twenty years later, Rabbi Kahane was correct., April 4, 2006

By 

Sir Lancelot (Canada) - See all my reviews

This review is from: They Must Go (Hardcover)

I wanted to read what this Rabbi Kahane fellow written on this subject after hearing his very articulate, informative and detailed debates with such individuals as Alan Dershowitz, Dennis Prager and many others. I was amazed at this inspiring and courageous man's perceptions and solutions for the problems that contaminate Israel and subsequently every other Liberal/Socialist democracy in their continual drift into immorality. Twenty years later, with the immense political scandals, corruption and the realities of Islamic/Communist terrorism, Kahane was right. This work was written when Rabbi Kahane had been imprisoned without legal reason nor trial. He was the only Israeli leader to attack their major problem head on: The Arabs. Islam, if one takes the time to read the Islamic holy books, is against anything non-Islam. Islamic Law is directly against the Jewish State, the rise in Islamic terrorism and rise of a terrorist organization to bring about a solely Arab/Islamic "State of Palestine" speak truth for Rabbi Kahane's views, even 20 years after his murder. The fact of the matter is that the Quraan as well the Communist Manifesto legitimate and advocate terrorism weather it be religious terrorism or political terrorism the result is the rule by one imperialist genocidal religion or one expansionist yet murderous ideology. "From Time Immemorial" - J.Peters, "The High Cost of Peace" - Y. Bodansky and "To Eliminate The Opiate" - Rabbi M. S. Antelman and lastly Www.JTF.Org for reality based information on Israel and America. Great read highly recommended.
