According to Rabbi, the lives of non-Jews in Israel are safeguarded by divinity, to prevent losses to Jews.

The sole purpose of non-Jews is to serve Jews, according to Rabbi Ovadia Yosef, the head of Shas’s Council of Torah Sages and a senior Sephardi adjudicator.

“Goyim were born only to serve us. Without that, they have no place in the world – only to serve the People of Israel,” he said in his weekly Saturday night sermon on the laws regarding the actions non-Jews are permitted to perform on Shabbat.

According to Yosef, the lives of non-Jews in Israel are safeguarded by divinity, to prevent losses to Jews.

“In Israel, death has no dominion over them... With gentiles, it will be like any person – they need to die, but [God] will give them longevity. Why? Imagine that one’s donkey would die, they’d lose their money.

This is his servant... That’s why he gets a long life, to work well for this Jew,” Yosef said.


“Why are gentiles needed? They will work, they will plow, they will reap. We will sit like an effendi and eat.

That is why gentiles were created,” he added.

Yosef’s Saturday night sermons have seen many controversial statements from the 90-year-old rabbi. In August, Yosef caused a diplomatic uproar when he wished a plague upon the Palestinian people and their leaders, a curse he retracted a few weeks later, when he blessed them along with all of Israel’s other peace-seeking neighbors.

They are all so United!
Even if we all be United,
as Muslims and Pakistanis,
We will surely become the most powerful and best Nation of the world!
...and Inshallah we will be one day not far away!

Radicalisation in Israel is as problematic for the middle-east as the wahhabbi regime in S.Arabia or the Iranian spiritual heads.......the middle-east is truly a mess.....

Good morning sunshine we have been suffering such racism for a century now. How do you deal with a people who truly believe that God chose them over all of humanity and that the rest are merely servants and animals?

do note that jews have lost every single major conflict they were in from creation of israel in 2000 BC to 1947 (why else do you think they had to "recreate" their country). occasionally they have revived their country before but it was never long. the existence of israel today is a historical oddity. they can't do diplomacy, so when they're inevitably put up against a strong enemy they'll either back down, or foolishly fight and die.

It simply goes to show that there are lunatic fundamentalists in every society. Without exception.

It is being compounded in Israel... because the Jewish people who move back to Israel are a "self-selecting group", which leads to the disproportionate numbers of "Haredim". At least from what I have read.

The actual Jewish nation is represented by Jewish communities all over the world, rather than just by those in Israel. There are plenty in the city where I live as well.

This guy is just old fool that talks lots of nonsense, he curses Israeli politicians as well, but he is quite harmless, never heard any of his followers harming anyone.

In March, during a long-running dispute between Shas and the leftist education minister, Yossi Sarid, over the subject of the party's financially-troubled network of religious schools, Rabbi Yosef called Mr Sarid "Satan" and said he should be "extirpated from the earth".

He once dismissed Ariel Sharon, the leader of the right-wing Likud party, as "a warmonger who loves pigs" and called the former prime minister, Binyamin Netanyahu, a "blind goat".

It simply goes to show that there are lunatic fundamentalists in every society. Without exception.

But this lunatic has 11 members in the Knesset, and is a part of a ruling coalition.
