One of Israel’s most outspoken and famous anti-tziyoni activists, Yoilish Krauss, put together his own angle on the song “Yevonim,” singing it along with his family after lighting the Chanukah neiros in his Meah Shearim home.
The Krauss’s often take part in the hafganos emblematic of their community and are unapologetic in their defense of Torah and virulent hatred of the Zionist government.
The lyrics to the song are:
אוי ציונים נקבצו עליי אזיי בימי סאטמר, ופרצו חומות החינוך וטימאו כל התלמודי תורה, ומנותר הקנאים נעשה נס לשושנים, ימי שבת ימי יום טוב קבעו מחאות והפגנות
40 members of the Knesset, from parties in both the coalition and opposition, signed a letter on Tuesday, addressed to the leaders of the European Union, in protest of a recently leaked document, which calls for helping the Palestinian Authority actively take control of land in Area C, which is supposed to be under full Israeli control under the Oslo Accords.
"On the Arch of Titus in Rome, engraved in stone is the seven-branched menorah of the Holy Temple as it is plundered by the legions of Rome. "Jerusalem is lost" – Hierosolyma est Perdita or Hep-Hep – became the Latin catchphrase used to deride and humiliate the Jewish exiles on European soil," the letter opens. "In the 1930s, graffiti in a similar vein was scribbled on walls in the streets of Berlin: "Juden Nach Palästina” – “Jews go to Palestine.
And now that we have finally returned to Jerusalem and to the land of Israel, Europe would claim that we are foreigners in our own country, that we do not belong in our own homeland.
