Today, the chief rabbi of Israel condemned the notion of revenge as something contrary to Judaism. (Naturally he had to say that, otherwise he wouldn't remain the chief rabbi for very long.) My reflections on the issue of vengeance in Judaism, and why the rabbi was wrong. Vengeance is good when the Torah says it is good.

The purpose of this blog is to act as a fist to the face of the Jewish conscience and to jar Jews out of oblivion. It is a call to return to the Torah, to start the process of tshuvah gemura, and to rid the collective body of the infectious "shtetl syndrome". The Jewish Fist is also a warning to the enemies of the Almighty, whether it be the Arab Amalakites, or the mixed multitude within. The Jewish Fist has risen, and when it descends, G-d help you!
" Thou comest to me with a sword and a spear and a shield, but I come to thee in the name of the L-rd of Hosts, the G-d of the armies of Israel, whom thou hast humiliated..." (I Samuel, 17:45-47)
