OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- Rabbi Zalman Melamed, a prominent Jewish religious leader in Israel, called Palestinian keenness to reside in "Jewish cities" in occupied Palestine a "terrorist attempt to crush two thousand year old Jewish dreams" and a stab at Arabizing Jewish neighborhoods.
Dozens of rabbis, touring northern Palestine, announced that Arabs living in 1948-occupied territory are no more than guests. They warned that Arabs there are trying to infringe on Israel's Jewish identity through calls to make Israel a state for all its citizens.
The rabbis, accompanied by several Knesset members, showed support for an advisory opinion forbidding selling or renting homes to Arabs in "Israeli" cities.
Rabbi Shmuel Eliyahu said the overwhelming majority of Jews in Israel support the opinion, saying: "The opinion does not express racism, but love for Israel. The Arabs must know that they are only guests here. If one of them conspires against this state, he has no place here."

OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (PIC)-- A Zionist magazine, apparently reflecting popular Israeli opinion, promoted the idea of extermination camps for the Palestinians.
The weekly magazine distributed in synagogues throughout the country published an advisory opinion undersigned by major rabbis calling the establishment of those camps a "legitimate duty", the Israeli e-newspaper YNet reported Saturday.
The statement attacked rabbis who had reservations on signing the document, calling the Palestinians the "giants" who religious texts say the Lord commanded the Israelites to slaughter them, their children, their women, their elders, and even their beasts more than two thousand years ago.
According to those rabbis, the Torah requires the Jews to wipe out any trace of those giants in this era, in reference to the Palestinians.
Jewish thinker Audi Aloni said calls to eliminate the Palestinians are openly made in the synagogues as the genocidal idea has become a practical option.
"No one objected to Rabbi Shlomo Eliahu, chief rabbi of Safed, and Rabbi Shlomo Avner, Chief Rabbi of Beit El, who undersigned the advisory opinion, which suggests approval of their opinion," Aloni said.
