True Torah Jews comment on True Torah Jews Sponsor Radio Ad in Reaction to Netanyahu Speech article.
To listen to the ad click here.
The following radio ad is airing on WABC tonight, Tuesday Sep. 27:Last week, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu gave a speech at the UN. The international organization “True Torah Jews” fears that people may be misled on certain points.
Ever since Jews were sent into exile by Heavenly decree, the Jewish people have never sought to establish sovereignty. Jews have waited patiently for the day of redemption when there will be peace among humanity.
Netanyahu quotes the Torah to support his argument that the Holy Land should be a Jewish state. This is simply propaganda, how can someone quote the Torah in support of an ideology whose very essence is forbidden by the Torah?
The State of Israel denies the fundamental Jewish belief in Heavenly redemption and replaces the Torah with nationalism. The State of Israel cannot – and should not – claim to represent worldwide Jewry, nor should it be identified as a Jewish State.
The blurring of the boundary between the Jewish people and the State of Israel jeopardizes the safety of Jews living all over the world including the Holy Land. Learn more at: TrueTorahJews.org

That’s the title of my next book about the end of privacy and the benefits of publicness. I’m delighted to tell you that I’ve just agreed to write it for Simon & Schuster, HarperCollins, my publisher for What Would Google Do? , working again with my brilliant editor there, Ben Loehnen. It will come out, muses willing, next year [fall 2011].
In Public Parts, I’ll argue, as I have here, that in our current privacy mania we are not talking enough about the value of publicness. If we default to private, we risk losing the value of the connections the internet brings: meeting people, collaborating with them, gathering the wisdom of our crowd, and holding the powerful to public account. Yes, I believe we have a right and need to protect our privacy — to control our information and identities — but I also want the conversation and our decisions to include consideration of the value of sharing and linking. I also want to protect what’s public as a public good; that includes our internet. We have plenty of privacy advocates. I want to be a publicness advocate.
This is a hot topic that’s going to get only hotter. This morning, Italked about publicness and “privacy in the time of Facebook” on public radio’s The Takeaway.
