New Life 680 – Islam Is Taking Over Europe

New Life 680 – Islam Is Taking Over Europe
Dr. Michael Laitman in conversation with Oren Levi and Nitzah Mazuz

In the wisdom of Kabbalah, it is written that, in the end of days, Islam will spread to Europe and everyone will unite against Israel. The immigrants of today, unlike in the past, are radical Muslims whose goal is to conquer Europe. Aging Europe is unable to contend with the young and radical Muslim force, and the governments in Europe are preventing the media from covering what truly is happening on the street.

Ultimately, everything is directed at us the Jews, as the goal is to awaken us to realize our purpose. However, the Jews in Europe aspire to assimilate into European culture, whereas the Muslims aspire to keep their identity and convert everyone to Islam at a time when European culture is collapsing and the European Union is on the way toward breaking apart.

Secretary-General Of The UN Speaks In Favor Of Terrorism

laitman_552_03Comment: Secretary-General of the UN Ban Ki-Moon in his appearance before the members of the Security Council said that what is called the “occupied territories” in Israel are an incubator for hatred and extremism. He said that the despair of the Palestinians is increasing under the oppression of the Israeli occupation and therefore their reaction is a natural reaction that is typical of human nature.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu responded sharply that Ban Ki-Moon is behaving with forgiveness towards terrorism and that UN has long lost its neutrality and moral fortitude.

Answer: The fact that the UN lost its mission is natural; it not an organization of united nations, but an organization of separate nations. Ban Ki-Moon cannot be a protector, not only of Israel, because the internal state he is a born with is “anti.” This is inherent in human nature. He is constantly irritable and nervous about the fact that there is a state and a nation of Israel.

During all the years of the existence of the UN, and especially during the years of his tenure as Secretary-General of the UN, this organization has turned into a circus. For some time now we haven’t paid attention to it, regarding what is said there as unimportant. Newspapers, of course, publish the news about it because this forum is considered to be international, but really it is not a forum. These are people who don’t listen to each other; each speaks his piece and acts only on this basis. Nobody has taken this organization seriously for quite some time now.

I don’t think that we need to give it any special attention. The Israeli Prime Minister is absolutely right. The Secretary-General needs to be straightened up a bit so he gets a sense of reality; after all, he stands at the head an organization that should unite the nations—the United Nations!

In order to become such, we need to change, and the secretary-general and the whole organization need to. While it attracts politicians who only try to wound and humiliate each other, nothing will come of it.

I would invite Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon to our convention in late February to show him how people can unite. He would see how thousands of people arrive from all over the world for a few days at their own expense, taking time from their jobs and their families, to engage in unity between them. Moreover, these people are from all nationalities and races that exist in the world!

There are two million people in the world who are engaged by our system, an educational system for unity and connection between people.

I think the United Nations should explore this system, and perhaps, even apply it.  Then it would really look different and would not lose its value in the eyes of people from year to year, especially in the catastrophic situation that the UN has reached under the leadership of the Honorable Ban Ki-Moon.

It is worth to come and see how we do it, Mr. Secretary-General!

The Struggle With Terrorism – A Postponement Of Death

laitman_272Question: Recently, Israel suffered another terrorist attack: a 24-year-old Israeli woman was murdered in the Beit Horon settlement not far from Jerusalem. This was the third terrorist act in the area of Israeli settlements in Judaea and Shomron recently. Two weeks earlier, a mother of six children was murdered by terrorists, the next day a pregnant woman was wounded, and now there is another tragedy in Beit Horon.

The latest terrorist attacks have provoked a storm of reactions. There is an opinion among the public that firearms should be distributed to all Israeli citizens who are able to carry them. What is your opinion?

Answer: I think that it is necessary to teach the residents how to use a weapon. Most of the citizens in Israel who served in the army know how to handle them. They need to go through a short training and could carry a weapon for the protection of everyone.

Comment: Despite international public opinion, there are those who propose killing terrorists on the spot instead of trying to catch them and hand them over to the police .

Answer: This is correct. There is a law written in the Torah that if someone falls upon you and wants to kill you, you must act ahead of the attacker and kill him first without bringing him to a court. That is the law of the Torah, so why do we need to comply with the laws of the British Mandate or Turkey? Don’t we have the right to defend ourselves from murderers?

Question: What is your opinion about the proposal to destroy the homes of terrorists and the expulsion of their families?

Answer: This is a retaliatory act with great influence since a home is very dear to a person, and if he knows that his family is liable to be left without a roof over their head, he will think twice about whether it is worthwhile for him to become a terrorist and join Daesh. After all, these acts of terrorism are organized by Daesh.

Question: It seems that the Arabs are not afraid of anything anymore if children of the age of 13-15 are taking knives and going out to murder. How is it possible to combat this?

Answer: I would suggest cutting all the propaganda of Daesh in the territory of Israel by every means possible, blocking it from coming through the smartphones, the Internet, television stations, cable, and satellites. Daesh is organizing powerful propaganda so we must take strict measures against them.

The ideology of Daesh penetrates the Arab territories through the media and directs the children to murder Jews. So we must cleanse the nation of all terrorist propaganda; in this way we will deprive them of the opportunity of seeing, hearing, and in general, being in any kind of link with Daesh.

Question: What is to be done about the fact that the people have already become accustomed to repeated acts of terrorism and have become insensitive to it?

Answer: We are not talking about the psychology of the common citizen, but about measures taken by the government, the actions that the police and the army must perform to prevent acts of terrorism.

Although we have become used to hearing about fatalities from traffic accidents, about those who have been wounded or killed by terrorists, this doesn’t mean that we must accept the situation; rather, we must examine the means that the government is taking. If terrorism has become a regular phenomenon, it means that the government is not combating it effectively and is not performing its obligations towards the citizens of the nation.

What are the Communications Minister, the Defense Minister, and the Interior Minister doing? They must act; after all, we are found in a state of war. This is an internal war that is being waged on the territory of Israel. We are not talking about what is happening beyond our borders.

It is frightening to think about what would happen if an external war were to be added to the internal war. Do you know how many weapons the Arabs who are living in Israel possess? So we cannot wait and must act—he who hesitates is lost.

Question: Besides the necessary actions to block the terrorist propaganda through the media and providing security for the residents, what meaningful solution would you suggest for eliminating terrorism?

Answer: The people of Israel must stop this evil in its higher spiritual root. After all, it is said: “No calamity comes into the world except for the sake of Israel” (Talmud Bavli, “Yevamot” 63a), and Israel is not carrying out its mission; this is apparently the reason for the tragedies that are happening in our world.

We must do what is incumbent upon us and carry out a correction at the root of the forces of good and evil that operate in the world, stopping and reining in the spread of the force of evil in our world and counterbalancing it through the good force. In the meantime, the evil force is only continuing to become more powerful and is suppressing the good force until it is almost not visible.

Question: If we can influence the evil force at its root, then why do we have all the rest of the actions for combating terrorism?

Answer: We must do everything that is in our power, both on the physical level and on the spiritual level. We will not be able to instantly awaken all the people of Israel and unite them completely so that we can attract the good force into this world to the degree that it will be ready to neutralize the power of evil. This requires time, and in the meantime we need the police and the army, public education in handling firearms, distributing weapons, and blocking the propaganda of Daesh. Thus we also counteract the forces of evil.

Simultaneously, it is up to us to begin the work of unifying the people. If the government were to help us organize this so that we would have the opportunity to explain how it is possible to have an effect on the evil forces in nature by cutting them off at their root to the entire population, we could succeed without any further actions.

But in the meantime we are forced to act on our own. For example, we invited the Foreign Minister of Sweden to our international Kabbalah convention, which will be held on February 23-25 at the Exhibition Grounds in Tel Aviv. We are investing all of our efforts in awakening the people to correction, and we hope to succeed with this.

China Will Help The Palestinians

laitman_559Question: The president of China,Xi Jinping announced that China will support the establishment of the Palestinian state with its capital in East Jerusalem. Likewise, China granted thirty million dollars to the victims of the war as humanitarian aid, seven million dollars in support of the Palestinian state, and three-hundred million dollars to strengthen the rule of law.

It seems that the world essentially is beginning to accept the Palestinian state, and with China joining, it will become a serious power.

Answer: What choice remains for China? It must follow the other nations. When America, Russia, and the rest of the nations support something, China goes along with them. It cannot allow itself to be in opposition, even though it derives no benefit from this. Although every nation looks to what will be profitable for it, the current international situation obligates China to act practically.

Question: In your opinion, will Israel recognize a Palestinian state?

Answer: It depends on us, on how we behave, not on the policy of our government.

We don’t need to think about whether a Palestinian state will be established or not, rather how to rise to the next level of development and show the world the way.

As soon as we do this, the world will begin to support us and follow us. It doesn’t matter in which geographic area. It is important that the world will begin to see the next stage of its development, which is unity, harmony, and connection between everyone as nature teaches us. So, there is nowhere for us to run. We must reach this.

Question: Must this process specifically begin with the Jews?

Answer: Yes, if we begin to bring the positive force into the world, it will change the way people think, open new horizons to them, and through our world, people will begin to see the next stage of human development and understand what the structure of the world, the economy, the society, and the nation must be. If this would happen, then we would have no fear about whether there will be a nation or not.

Everything will work out so that the Upper Light will pass into this world through us, and then Israel will be a respected and important part of the world community because it is only through us that the ideology and power of the new generation can move into the world, with whose help it is possible to realize this.

The Jewish people have a unique mission that is written in The Book of Zohar, and today it is being revealed to the world. All of us together, the Jews and all the rest of the nations of the world, must realize this mission together. So, let’s reveal it and see how it must be done, so nature won’t force us to this through negative forces.

The Future Of Tourism

laitman_441Comment: Only 290,000 tourists visited Israel in October, a drastic decline compared to previous years. It is also reported that the current wave of terrorism not only stops tourism but also the medical tourism that has been highly developed in Israel.

Answer:  The fact is that the so-called medical tourism in Israel came mainly from Russia and the Russian-speaking regions. Now their economic situation is much more difficult.

So I think the issue is not whether it is safe here or not. Israel, compared to other regions, is a much safer place.

Medical care in Western Europe is highly developed and so very few come to Israel for medical treatment. Interestingly, citizens of neighboring Arab countries come to receive medical treatment in Israel, particularly not advertising it, including relatives of Hamas leaders. Politics and business are always more important.

The situation in the world is simply getting worse. There are more problems, diseases, poverty, overcrowding; everything is becoming more condensed. It is felt everywhere: in culture, art, and the Internet that is becoming more and more flat. Previously the Internet was a star, and today it isn’t.

The world is gradually fading. But this is natural because we have to transcend to the next level, but haven’t yet. The current level has already become obsolete; it has been exhausted.

Therefore, if we don’t change voluntarily, the problems and afflictions will force us to begin to change our world into a more universally connected world, a world in which we resemble nature, the world where we want to enjoy more sublime values rather than shallow corporeal pleasures.

I saw tourists in Western Europe and all over the world 20, 30, and 40 years ago. Even 10 years ago these were cheerful people traveling, hiking, visiting sites.

But today it is all over. Tourism has exhausted itself and has become outdated. Young people don’t need this; they see everything on the Internet; they aren’t interested in castles and cathedrals. Tourism has grown old. If there are any tourists, they are mainly the elderly. The elderly slowly die, and young couples aren’t interested.

Question: What will tourism turn into?

Answer: It will disappear. People’s demands change, and if they change, it means that the past becomes tasteless. You can give them money, but they won’t spend it on a trip. So all these luxury hotels, tourist attractions, planes, and everything related to tourism will gradually disappear. We can shut down the Ministry of Tourism without a problem.

Question: What about trips and journeys to spiritual worlds?

Answer: There will be a demand for that! Contact our tour guides, we are organizing such journeys.

ISIS Is Already In Israel

Laitman_200_01Comment: The president of Israel Reuben Rivlin claims that the Islamic state is already in Israel. In the last INSS convention he said:”The Islamic State is already here; that is no longer a secret. I am not speaking about territories bordering the State of Israel, but within the State itself. Research studies, arrests, testimonies, and overt and covert analyses – many by the INSS – clearly indicate that there is increasing support for the Islamic State among Israeli Arabs, while some are actually joining IS.” (Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs)

According to the president, Israeli Arabs identify with this terrorist organization, because of their amazing PR campaigns.

Answer: ISIS indeed has achieved great success in their advertising on the Internet; they are very active in spreading their ideas on social networks through video clips. They have a thorough technique for processing people. They hit below the belt: join us or die. The openly and successfully play on people’s basest feelings.

Comment: The Israeli president demands that Israeli Arabs and their leaders take responsibility and openly oppose ISIS.

Answer: The Arab community is not able to oppose ISIS. Although these are ordinary people who lead a normal good life, they are susceptible to this propaganda.

Soon we will find ourselves helpless as this phenomenon spreads among the masses armed with weapons and an ideology. They will be ready to sacrifice their lives for it, when on the other hand. Most of the Israel’s population do not own guns and don’t know how or want to use them. We will be under the threat of a war within and on our borders.

I hope that the nation of Israel will soon realize that the only solution is in drawing the upper force of nature that operates when we unite. The upper force will influence our enemies from within and change them.

We can change them and oblige them to be different and thus change the whole world by our desire to connect. It is in our hands and only in our hands, If we do that, we will be able to get rid of all our problems and help the world.

Question: How can people believe that?

Answer: We have to explain to everyone that we can discover the Creator in our world, the force of connection, the positive force, the Upper Light, through the wisdom of Kabbalah. When this force is revealed between us and in each of us, it will be conveyed through us to the rest of the world and will balance the world.

Our egoism is what has generated the “Islamic State,” the crises, the problems in Europe, and all over the world, and the good force that will balance everything will bring the world to a peaceful state.

We can compare the current situation to a puppeteer wearing a puppet like glove and the puppet hits him over and over again while he is actually the one who operates it. This person cries out for help not realizing that he simply has to stop beating himself.

If we only realize that we are actually unconsciously generating and managing all the negative phenomena, this realization will automatically put an end to all the negative actions.

2016 – What Will Happen In Europe?

Laitman_419Question: Will Europe be able to cope with the influx of immigrants? How will it be able to do this?

Answer: No, for Europe, there is no chance of uniting, even when faced by the threat of annihilation. They don’t have a common goal or a common system of universal education. To bring Europe to unification, it is necessary to educate the population. And they have only engaged in unifying the banks. What sense is there in that?

Question: Does this mean that economic union is not enough for them?

Answer: This is not union, but a hidden where America seems to stand on the sidelines while Germany puts pressure on everyone and harvests the yield.

The European nations were placed in such a framework without the option of refusing entry into the European Union. If Greece had not joined the union, they would have been trampled economically. That is, it was not a voluntary connection, not for a common goal.

I used to live in the Baltic region and I am very familiar with that area. They are in shock and disbelief over what Europe did to them after they entered the Common Market. They were forbidden to produce dairy products and had to slaughter their cows. Can you imagine what this prohibition meant for the Baltic region? They don’t have anything to sell and nothing  to make a living from.

They same was done to Portugal through banning fishing and to Greece in regulating olive growing. That is, the EU does what is convenient for the top, destroying the traditional industries of many European nations.

Question: But wasn’t there some kind of cultural exchange between them?

Answer: There is no cultural exchange. There is no common language training, etc. This is not union, but coercion. Therefore, in the absence of joint action, the Union decays.

Question: Does this mean that, in 2016, the black and white flag of Islam will rise over Europe even higher than in the year 2015?

Answer: This is without a doubt. The ideology of Islam will continue to seep into there, and millions of Europeans will accept Islam.

Question: But there are more powerful nations, like the UK, for example.

Answer: The British and the Poles will cope with this. But it is unlikely that the rest of the peoples will,  including the Russians.

Question: But Putin has not ruled out using nuclear weapons against ISIS.

Answer: There is no concrete power against ISIS because it is an ideology. It is not a physical force or an army so it is impossible to defeat it just like that.

Question: How will these changes influence the attitude of Europe toward the Jews living there and to Israel?

Answer: It will be for the worse. The fact is that all the problems that appear in the world are still interpreted by all mankind as ostensibly emanating from the Jews. And indeed it is.

Question: So, what will happen to Israel? Could a refugee situation similar to what is happening in Europe occur here?

Answer: This really depends on the Jews living here, on the union between them and how much they can overcome the economic, political, physical, and military barriers on the way to this.

Question: We have fences with a height of four meters.

Answer: Everything depends only on the union of the people. This is the true barrier. If there is no union, fences will not help.

The Refugee Crisis In Europe

In The Name Of Unity

laitman_629_2Question: In what way can the wisdom of Kabbalah help the citizens of Russia who are worried about their workplace because of the crisis in the nation and live in fear because of an anticipated war?

Answer: I am not afraid of war and I don’t think its threat will be realized soon. Although the ISIS organization is undermining the security of Israel, Europe, and Russia and is causing tension in everyone, we don’t need to fear it and try to fight against it directly; rather, we must understand where it comes from. It is a certain level of human development: egoism, which has grown to such dimensions that it wants to conquer the world and enslave it.

Therefore, it is up to us to set an ideological force against it, not a military force. But in the meantime, humanity doesn’t understand this, and ideological power is not  in the area of the military and the nation.

So today, for the first time in two thousand years, the wisdom of Kabbalah is being revealed and declares that it has a solution to this problem, which is found on the ideological plane, not on the military plane, because the terrorist organizations are specifically winning through ideology.

The terrorist organizations attract people to them due to their consolidation around an idea with particular principles, and this is what makes them attractive and inspiring to young people.

We still don’t know how much support they have in all the western nations, in North America, and in Australia. Many of them come from good families. This is happening because humanity has ended its former paradigm and cannot continue existing according to its former small egoism.

Comment: The impression is created that humanity is bored with the cultured world so they want to try something new.

Answer: The cultured world in our day doesn’t provide fulfillment to people. People don’t want to marry, don’t want to have children, and don’t want anything at all. And this is a problem. They simply exist due to the power of inertia because they cannot die.

Many consume drugs, suffer from depression, and so forth. Why? Because they don’t have an answer for the meaning of life. Imagined wellbeing summed up by work, family, and raising children doesn’t provide a person with anything anymore. What can you give them? What can you feed them? 

Therefore, the young are going to ISIS.  And they are stronger than anyone. They are not afraid of anything because they would rather die than exist without meaning.

The wisdom of Kabbalah opposes them with the idea of good connection and unity, which raises us all up to the next level of development, and does not engage in mutual destruction. This is idea is not built on egoism and mutual hatred, but on good and cohesion.

Question: If all of us were to follow your advice and the ideas of the wisdom of Kabbalah, how rapidly could we defeat terrorism in the Middle East?

Answer: I am sure that within a few months we would see amazing changes in the world. We do we have to lose? We are talking about the need for people simply to get closer to each other.

This direction is justified economically, politically, and socially and is linked to the general trend of nature, which mutually connects us to each other and makes all of humanity a single small global village. We are not going against anyone’s principles here.

Comment: If everyone were to come closer and unite into small groups and everything were to sort itself out, it follows that the nations would no longer need political leadership.

Answer: The world will reach not having borders between nations. When people will begin to approach each other, they will see for themselves that there is no difference between them and there won’t be any need for borders.

Without preparing the population for this, without educating it in the spirit of mutual connection, nothing will succeed. For example, Europe created a common market instead of unity between people; indeed, there is a common bank, but where is the unity? The alliance between leaders is made for their own profit and not for unity and balance. Europe is not united by a common ideology and common education.

Question: If we defeat ISIS and the borders between nations fall, will all of humanity live happily?

Answer: It is impossible to defeat ISIS without counterbalancing it through the good force, the power of Light. The ideology of this organization is very strong and is controlled by a force that is not balanced by the good force.

We grant it the right to exist and breathe life into it as long as we don’t counterbalance it through closeness and connection between people. If we begin to implement the ideology of goodness of unity, they will come to us themselves and will work in partnership with us for unity and good.

It is up to us to thank them for those forces that are compelling us to unite. After all, that is why they were created. It is nature showing us who we are through the negative force that we ourselves created through our inaction.

But I am sure that we can counterbalance this negative force with the method of correction of Kabbalah. It laid the groundwork for the principle, “And you shall love your friend as yourself” (Leviticus 19:18) around 3,500 years ago. This is the primary law of nature. And we will reach it together. Preferably this will be done as quickly as possible and with little bloodshed.

Soros Is Not Our Brother

400Question: The human rights organization Human Rights Watch is supported by the well-known Jewish philanthropist George Soros who appealed to commercial companies and banks demanding they cease any cooperation with the Israeli settlements and occupied territories, including the Jewish quarters in East Jerusalem.

It is hard enough that the EU wants to neutralize us and to realize that we are not liked, and then Soros also comes along.

Answer: It is no secret that Jews are behind anti-Israeli movements, and we cannot ignore that. Jews once again are leading themselves to annihilation and believe that their actions are right.

200 years ago, before the destruction of the Second Temple, we were on a spiritual level and lived in connection between us according to the principle of “Love your neighbor as yourself.” Things changed after the destruction of the Second Temple, and we fell from that level to the level of unfounded hatred.

Since then we have been in a state called exile. Exile refers to the fall from the high level we were on to a level of ordinary relations in this world, and here we are the worst. When we are under great pressure, we help one another because the instinct of survival in a pack switches on. But when we don’t feel the threat of a war and one of us climbs to the top, he suffocates the others even more. There is no need for anti-Semites—take a Jew like Soros, for example, who does his job faithfully.

Since the relations between us have been inverted and unfounded hatred replaced love, we don’t treat each other like all other nations treat each other. We don’t love; we reject one another and are ready to give, sell, dispose of, and disconnect from one another. This results from undergoing the destruction,  and it is the state we are in today. It is called the destruction of the Second Temple, our destruction.

The wisdom of Kabbalah tells us about our history and about the love that is gone and the revelation of hatred. So, Soros, the advisors of president Obama, and other Jews in leading positions in Europe and the US call for boycotting Israel and lead the anti-Semitic attacks on our nation.

Therefore, I don’t see them as our brothers. We were brothers before the destruction of the Second Temple, and since then we hate each other until this very day. We must accept that fact, even though we don’t understand it. We are only brothers in times of trouble because we are together under pressure. Only when we begin to connect will we become brothers again, and then will cancel the external hatred aimed at us.

Question: What will push us to connect and unite?

Answer: There are two ways: the immense sufferings that we undergo in order to change our attitude toward one another and thus realize what we must do for ourselves and for the world or through the path that the wisdom of Kabbalah tells us about, which is an internal, moral revolution we must undergo in order to unite in a peaceful manner.

We have a method of spiritual connection called the wisdom of Kabbalah, and this is the reason that this wisdom is revealed today. We must implement it and disseminate it all over the world, as it is written, “And you shall keep [them] and do [them], for that is your wisdom and your understanding in the eyes of the peoples,” and we mustn’t conceal it.

The Real Meaning Of The Ancient Prophecies

laitman_933Question: The prophet Jeremiah compared the eternal existence of the people of Israel to the lawfulness of the sun and the moon in the description of their service to the Creator. What is the meaning of this in regard to the people of Israel of today?

Answer: As long as we don’t understand the interpretations of the original writings of the Kabbalists, it is up to us to relate to them only practically.

The Jewish people are composed of a group of people united by a common condition of existence: mutual approach, combined into one single organism. Otherwise it does not exist. This is what the prophet Jeremiah meant.

The prophets were Kabbalists found on a particular level of spiritual development. All of their words are expressed in allegorical language, and so with words like “sun,” “moon,” etc. the meaning is not about physical objects but internal forces of nature.
