                    The Jewish State Exists
               Who needs a World Jewish Congress?

       Nearly fifty years before the establishment of the Jewish State in the Land of Israel,
a man, by the name of Theodore Herzl, convened a conference of Jews from all over the world
in Basil, Switzerland for the purpose of discussing his "new idea" of creating a Jewish State as
a haven for the Jewish People.  Had this World Jewish Congress succeeded in this goal prior
to 1930, there might not have been a Holocaust, for Jews would have had a place to escape to.
       Today, forty-three years after the establishment of the Jewish State, the concept of
a World Jewish Congress is superfluous.  The haven for Jews exists.  If there is any function to
be performed by a Jewish body outside of the Jewish state it should be either to help Jews to
return to that state, and/or to financially support that return.
       Yet, out of England has come the clarion call of the current Jewish "leadership" of
the World Jewish Congress to address the question of the alarming growth of antisemitism
worldwide.  The conference will be convened next July in, of all places, Brussels Belgium!
       If it weren't so tragic, it would be comical that a puffed up group of self-proclaimed
Jewish leaders, clearly aware that there does exist a Jewish State which, of all world bodies, is
best equipped to deal with any form of antisemitism, presumes to address this problem at a
meeting outside of the Jewish State!  Past experience can easily predict the outcome of this
pompous meeting.  All of the delegates will agree that antisemitism is bad, and the congress
will issue a proclamation condemning it.  This after a week of debate and sumptuous dinners in
an expensive Belgium hotel, including transportation for delegates from all over the world, at
the expense of the Jewish funds raised by this prestigious Jewish organization.   
       The Kach Movement realized, years ago, the futility of such nonsense.  There are
only two ways to deal with antisemitism:  
       Temporarily, to break the heads of those who come to harm Jews; and, permanently
to leave the polluted exile and return home to the Jewish State.  There is no other answer.  
       If the World Jewish Congress and other such repositories of Jewish monies for
Jewish causes truly cared about the fate of the Jewish People, they would use all of these
funds to help the Jewish State, and to assist Jews to return to it before being engulfed by the
growth of antisemitism, which, as they already recognize, is only increasing all over the world.
       Hitler had his solution to the "Jewish question" and Bush has his, but only the
Jewish People as a whole can bring an end to antisemitism, and bring peace to the world. 
Rather than lobbying the US Congress to approve loan guarantees to Israel, let these Jewish
organizations guarantee the loans instead.  It is high time that we stop squandering Jewish
funds on futile conferences and efforts to bribe the goyim.  We don't need to rely on strangers. 
We can take care of our own problems.  Let us, at long last, close ranks and recognize that the
only way to bring true peace and redemption is for Jews to care about and help Jews.
