  • Are Pope Francis and Archbishop of Canterbury disregarding the Bible?
    Aug 26 2024

    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.

  • SA's historic turning point - support the GNU (Dated June 16, 2024)
    Jul 4 2024

    There are moments in the history of nations which are not merely events – they are historic turning points. The announcement of a government of national unity anchored by the two largest parties in South Africa – the ANC and the DA – has the potential to be such a moment.

    After 15 years of progress in repairing the ravages of apartheid post-1994, followed by 15 years of corruption and incompetence that have caused untold human suffering – the country is at a pivotal point.

    The South African electorate have sent a clear message – that things cannot continue as they have, that we need a new beginning. To their great credit, the country’s political leaders have heard this message, and responded accordingly.

    Cynics who claimed that our democracy would not survive an election that dethroned the ruling party were proved wrong. Things did not fall apart. The constitution held. Democracy held. The center holds - and now we have a government of national unity that has within its grasp the power and promise to usher in an era of national renewal and healing.

    Now we must help them succeed.

    The South African people must come together to support the government of national unity and hold them accountable, to ensure this turns out to be not simply a fleeting moment of hope, but an historic turning point that puts our country on a path of prosperity and peace.
