The idea behind the design of the central Sephardic synagogue which won the first prize in an open competition in Hadera, Israel was the attempt to revive traditional design patterns based on both Maimonides' halachic rulings (the laws he set down in his book Hayad Hahazaka) and Talmudic literature as it was passed on to me by the beadles of the synagogues in Safad, capital of the Galilee, home and birthplace of Judaism's mystical stream of the Kabbala, and infuse into them a new meaning, in line with the program for this synagogue, and in accordance with the immediate landscape. I endeavored to captivate in this building the timeless spiritual exaltation that we experience in places of worship of every religion, in any culture we know, a feeling that worshippers underwent in synagogues where Maimonides prayed, such as the Iben Denan Synagogue in Fez, Morocco, the Ben-Ezra Synagogue in Cairo, Egypt, or the Abuhab Sephardic Synagogue in Safad, Israel. That deep feeling that opens your heart when entering places of worship, stems from the structural properties of the building itself. was to attempt to revive traditional design patterns based on both Maimonides' halachic rulings (the laws he set down in his book Hayad Hahazaka) and Talmudic literature as it was passed on to me by the beadles of the synagogues in Safad, capital of the Galilee, home and birthplace of Judaism's mystical stream of the Kabbala, and infuse into them a new meaning, in line with the program for this ...

Zionism, 'Anti-Semitism', Israel and its US Lobby Not a religion or an ethnic identity, but a political cult embodied in modern Israel, which uses Judaism and Jews for its own purposes. In effect Zionism and 'Anti-Semitism' are different sides of the same coin, with ordinary Jews paying the price Jews have played an important role in this duping drama and yet, the average Jew remains ignorant of what is transpiring. The average Jew has been effectively brainwashed by cries of anti-Semitism and pictures of the Jewish Holocaust The average Jew lives in a state of fear and anxiety and feels a part of the victim class. No matter how much power is amassed, the average Jew feels one step away from extinction. There is always a threat hanging over his head. Another swastika appears on a Synagogue. Another "suicide bomber" manages to get through the labyrinth of checkpoints in Israel. (if you know anything about the checkpoints, you will find this a bit difficult to believe ) Well placed occurrences keep the average Jew vulnerable to this "power." And what is this power? ZIONISM Zionism is a political movement that arose in the latter part of the 1800's. Initially it referred to the effort of certain Jewish people to establish a Jewish nation in the land of Palestine. But that term has changed over the years. Today it applies to those who want to expand the borders of what was already established. It refers to those who think nothing of putting their own interests ahead of the ...
