I know everyone is focused on the eight commandments in the drawing, but it’s also worth noting that JVP is openly highlighting that in 26 years of operation they’ve only been able to find a single congregation in the United States that shares their views
@TzedekChicago
’s vote to become an anti-Zionist congregation is a HUGE step toward Judaism beyond Zionism in the US.
As anti-Zionist Jews grow in number — and as most synagogues remain Zionist by default — we need more religious and communal homes.
Mazel tov and thank you!

PS I say “congregation” and not “synagogue”, because even Tzedek describes themselves as a congregation rather than a synagogue

“most synagogues remain Zionist by default”
Hmmm…I wonder why that’s the default?

I guess that is good news that the other 1,682 shul, synagogues and temples in America are not as self hating as this one

Do the many Satmar, some other Chassidishe sects, etc. congregations not count? Not bashing them. Just pointing out that there are many congregations that are “anti-Zionist”

Without Zionism Judaism cannot survive, Jews will be victims of massacres/genocide anywhere, anytime. We, Kurds are in similar situation, we must learn from our Zionist brothers how to defend ourselves, how to have our own homeland!

How do they reconcile “next year in Jerusalem” with being anti-Zionist??!!!
I imagine them singing fervently and then when it comes to that part they mumble or clear their throats. LOL
