“Remember what Amalek did to you on your journey, after you left Egypt-how, undeterred by fear of G-d, he surprised you on the march, when you were famished and weary, and cut down all the stragglers in the rear. Therefore, when the L-rd your G-d grants you safety from all you enemies around you, in the land that the L-rd your G-d is giving you as a hereditary portions, you shall blot out the memory of Amalek from under Heaven. Do not forget! (Deuteronomy 25: 17-19) JPS Hebrew English Tanakh
And why are we still dealing with the ideology of Amalek today? Here we have an early example of false morality resulting in terrible repercussions for the Jewish people The seed of Agag lives today, because King Saul failed to heed what the prophet Samuel explicitly instructed him to do. His failure to destroy Amalek in entirety, allowed the ideology to live on. As such, Amalek isn’t a particular nation anymore, but a poisonous doctrine that any people can adopt. As Rabbi Yosef Soloveitchik, of blessed memory explained:
“Amalek is obviously more than a Bedouin tribe. He is more than a particular group, nationality or people. He is Everyman gone berserk, who has shed his Divine image for that of Satan. Any nation which declares that its policy is to destroy the Jewish people is Amalek, for it has emblazoned on its banner the slogan of impassioned hatred: “Come let us destroy them as a nation, that the name Israel may no more be remembered.” (Reflections of the Rav, Abraham Besdin, pag 180.)
The potential resides within every committed Jew-hater, yet only those that fully articulate their Jew hatred attain this unique level of evil. Sometimes Amalek wears a cross, other times he goose-steps in a brownshirt screaming “zieg heil”. The communist Amalekite denied the concept of a G-d, and thus deified the worst expressions of man. Today’s version of Amalek speaks Arabic, yet he shares the same ideology. It is no coincidence that Nazi propaganda is treated with the same reverence by Arabs/Muslims that the Koran holds for many believers.
What are the signs of Amalek?
Rabid Jew hatred- Amalek’s religion is an ideology of killing Jews. Their self-interests are sacrificed for the mission. Feeding the masses, helping the indigent, healing the sick within their own camp? All sacrificed in order to slaughter Jews. Education? The sole education is the demonization of the Jewish people. While the Arab tyrants continue to abuse and exploit their own people, they can always redirect their ire towards the Jewish people.
Barbarism- The Germans annihilated 6 and 1/2 million Jews with bullets, bayonets, gas chambers, crematoria, and “scientific” human experimentation. The Mufti’s offspring are trying to finish the job. With their own words they often describe in monstrous detail how they crave Jewish blood, and we have seen them use their teeth and talons to pull apart living Jews. True to form, the modern day Amalek targets and slaughters women and children, even babies sucklings at the teat. The weak stragglers receive no reprieve. They are the first to go.
Purim Festivities?
In 2011, Arabs infiltrated the town of Itamar in Samaria and butchered the Fogel family, may G-d avenge their blood. Shortly after the horrible tragedy, the public school down the block from me was having their annual Purim carnival. The raucous mirth was particularly disturbing in the wake of the slaughter, where Arab degenerates stabbed an infant and small children, as readily as they slaughtered their parents. The callous people who run the school probably never considered toning down the festivities. In all likelihood, they didn’t even mention the slaughter to their students, which would be contrary to the culture of “peace” that they are brainwashing the schoolchildren with. After all, the Ministry of Mis-education portrays Arabs as ordinary people who want to live in peace with Jews, not as modern day nazis capable of stabbing infants and children. They prefer that Purim remain the vulgar display that it has become among large sections of the populace. Essentially a reenactment of the feast that caused us problems in the first place. A sign of descent into spiritual depravity; a Jewish Carnevale.
