In Tora there is forbidden to murder
people by the commandment “Do not kill!”. This commandment is
described in the book of Genesis (in Hebrew “Beresheet” - “In
the beginning”), in the story about the Flood: And surely your
blood of your souls I will require. From the hand of every beast I
will require it and from the hand of the man, from the hand of the
brother of every man I will require the soul of Adam … who sheds
human blood, by a man his blood to be shed, because by His own image
God made the man!” [Genesis, ch. 9:5,6]. In Tora the punishment
with death should be submitted only because of a very hard crime and
the hardest crime is murder.
In Tora there is prohibited the
ingestion of any blood, whether it is human or animal, or any mixing
of blood with food or bread. This prohibition is described in
Genesis: “But the flesh with its soul – its blood – do not eat
… !” [Genesis, ch. 9:4]. Here is the prohibition on offering of a
sacrifice' blood with bread: “Do not offer the blood of My
sacrifice on bread … !” [Exodus, ch. 23:18]. The prohibition is
repeated for leaven bread: “Do not slaughter an animal and spill
the blood of My sacrifice on leaven bread!” [Exodus, ch. 34:25].
There is another place in Tora where the blood is absolutely
prohibited: “Eternal law this is for your generations in all your
places of habitation: any fat and any blood you shall not eat!”
[Leviticus, ch. 3:17]. Therefore, when meat should be cooked, it must
be completely bloodless. This rule together with the rule of a
complete separation between the meat and dairy are essential in the
so called Kashrut – rules for meal storage and cooking.
All these details have been most
blatantly ignored by the Christian Church and Christian nations in
the Middle Ages which is why the Jewish people have been falsely
accused in ritual bloodshed repeatedly for many hundreds of years.
The accusations of ritual murder along with the accusation of the
plague have been used to justify pogroms and massive slaughters over
the Jewish communities in Europe and justify their forced
deportations. For the massive plague in XIV century the accusation
has been that the Jews have poisoned the water wells, which in itself
is madness and ignorance, because Jews have used the same wells for
themselves as well, as all the other people. Those times the Jewish
people have been burned ALIVE. Among the 25 million victims of this
plague, many of them have been Jews too, despite of their cleansing
rituals that they practice for thousands of years since the receiving
of Tora from the Lord Creator.
The rumor of ritual bloodshed began in
1144 in Norwich, England, with the death of a 12-old boy named
William. He has been found in the surrounding woodland. There hasn't
been conducted any investigation. In 1150 a Benedictine monk Thomas
of Monmouth, who wanted to prove his loyalty to the Church, has
declared the child killed for a ritual blood draining, perpetrated by
the Jews for their holiday Pesach (the passing over the Jewish homes
in Egypt by God during the 10-th plague). During the next 25 years
that monk has worked for the canonization of William by the Church as
a martyr of the faith. In a consequence of that in 1190 all the Jews
in Norwich have been murdered. The manuscript, written by Thomas of
Monmouth “Life and passions of William of Norwich”, has been
distributed all over Europe. Emily M. Rose wrote an entire work on
this case, named “The Murder of William of Norwich: The Origins of
the Blood Libel in Medieval Europe”, published by Oxford University
Press, 2015. With this absurd lie have begun the massive pogroms
against the Jewish people. From then on about 150 allegations of
ritual murders have been recorded, which always have been followed by
massacres and persecutions over all the Jewish communities around
Europe. The accusations have continued during and after the World War
II. There are many Jews who's families escaped from Poland before the
WW II, who described the hard life in Poland under the hammer of the
Blood libel.
In 1298 an impoverished German
nobleman, named Rindfleisch, has accused Jews from Rottingen in
desecration of the Christian consecrated host, organized the crowd
and all the Jews in Rottingen have been burned. It appeared that once
Rindfleisch has borrowed money from a Jew and has not been able to
pay that debt. In the period between 1296-1298 Rindfleisch organized
riots and persecutions against Jews in Germany and Austria, in which
about 100 000 Jewish people have been killed.
The most
used indictment, which Christian nations used to justify their
massive slaughters of Jews, has been the lie, that the Jewish people
have crucified Jesus Christ on the cross. First: the crucifixion has
never been a practice in the Jewish history, law or belief. Second:
There has not been any Jew, who is judged and punished in the eve of
Shabbat or Pesach. Jesus has been arrested, according to the scripture,
BY THE ROMAN soldiers on Thursday evening – the first evening of
Pesach. It's impossible for any Jew to participate in such act,
especially after the holly supper with matzot (special unleaven
bread) and wine and after all the blessings and prayers. Performing
any work is prohibited on Pesach in the first two days and in the
seventh day. That is why the supreme Jewish Court Sanhedrin could not
be gathered for a lawsuit. Third: the Sinhedrin could never work on
a lawsuit in the evenings. Fourth: the Sanhedrin could never issue a
sentence during the period of 24 hours after the completion of the
law-case. Fifth: the indictment of Jesus has been “Jesus of
Nazareth, king of Israel”, which has been written on a board,
attached to his cross. He obviously has been accused by the Roman
deputy Pilate Pontius, that he has proclaimed himself for a king of
Israel. Pilate HAD the full power and authority to release Jesus, if
as it written, Jesus appeared to be innocent before Pilate, despite
of any other opinion or any cry of the crowd. By the way, every Jewish man or woman SHOULD STAY HOME on Pesach, NOT OUTSIDE. So there should not be any crowd on the square. According to the Jewish
law, Jesus' self proclamation to be a “Messiah” (anointed priest,
anointed kohen), does not deserve a death penalty. At least, Jesus is
a descendant from the tribe of Yehuda, not from the tribe of Levi, so
he could not be a priest in the Holly Temple. This is an ultimate
position in Tora, given by God the Lord of the world to Moses, Aaron
and to all the Jewish nation. THEY HAVE NO CHOICE in the proclaming of "Mashiahh". “Messiah”, or
in original “Mashiahh”, does not mean “Saviour” but
“Anointed” and only a priest, a kohen from Levi should be
anointed. For any law case, the Sanhedrin must be gathered. Sixth:
no one else than the Romans themselves have arrested and crucified
Jesus. All that mess happened because of the OCCUPATION of Israel by the
bloody, slaughtering, raping, stealing and killing Roman empire.

Kostas Varnalis (1884 – 1974) has written the book “The
Dictators”, published in the middle of the XX century, based on
original scripts from Plutarh and Salustius.
