National Union chairman Ya'acov "Ketzele" Katz sent a letter to White House chief-of-staff Rahm Emanuel last week admonishing him not to forget his Jewish and Israeli origins.

SLIDESHOW: Israel %26amp; Region | World Katz's missive came in response to a reported verbal exchange between Emanuel and an unidentified American Jewish leader.
Katz claims that in a private meeting with the unnamed leader, Emanuel said, "In the next four years, there will be a peace agreement with the Palestinians on the basis of two states for two peoples, and it does not matter to us who is the prime minister."
In the letter, a Hebrew version of which was provided to The Jerusalem Post by Katz's parliamentary aide, Katz wrote: "For many Israelis, this report is a cause for worry because it reveals a condescending attitude toward our prime minister and Israeli public opinion. This is an attitude that Israel does not expect from a real friend such as the US, and all the more so from an Israeli Jew who has succeeded in being appointed White House chief-of-staff."
Katz went on to compare Emanuel to the biblical Esther, who ended up at using her influence with Persian King Ahashverosh to intervene on behalf of the Jews of the Persian Empire.
"For if you remain silent at this time, relief and deliverance for the Jews will arise from another place, but you and your father's family will perish. And who knows but that you have come to royal position for such a time as this?" Katz wrote, quoting from the Book of Esther (4:14).
Katz was hinting that Emanuel should use his influence to protect Israeli interests, which, he believes, are best served by preventing the creation of a Palestinian state in the West Bank and the Gaza Strip.
Emanuel was born in Chicago in 1959. His father, Benjamin M. Emanuel, a Jerusalem-born pediatrician, was a member of the IZL (Irgun).
Rahm Emanuel and his brothers attended summer camp in Israel. Emanuel and his wife, Amy Rule, are members of Anshe Sholom B'nai Israel, a modern Orthodox congregation in Chicago. They have a son and two daughters; the older two attend the same Conservative day school Emanuel himself attended as a child.|||So what are you saying? That Emanuel is a Hebrew sleeper cell waiting his time to save Israel. We know that he has unprecedented influence over the 'no clue' president, so is this his mission?
Or is he the 'false prophet' of anti-christ lore, a Jew who descends upon the people to offer false hope, and open the way for the anti christ?
Either way, I don't trust this man !|||What a weird question. You know when I mentioned Emanuel in the news to my Jewish conservative parents, they rolled their eyes. Learn the difference between indivuals %26amp; groups!

|||Read the Bible.God gave that land to the Jews.
The Jews are God's chosen peolpe.
Christians are the fulfillment of the Jewish Prophesy.
Israel is America's most trusted ally.
One does not want to be fighting the Jews on the last day.|||I think Christains and Muslims certainly do influence our government:
Rev. Wright
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Saddam Hussein
The Iranian Prez dude
King Hussein of Jordan
Rev. Jerry Falwell
Pat Buchanan
Add to the list as your mind opens...|||Get this and get it straight,
The Anglo (and my was born on a farm in PA) in not organized
Two people organizied will defeat 100's not, look at this past election.|||You sound surprised? this is a technic that has been used for ages and at every level of religion. you REALLY think that the fact that Obama middle name is Husein had no influence in how the Arab Muslim world accepted him? lol if only you knew my friend,
There are Arabs and Muslims around the world saying how they have "one of theirs" in the white house. get real this is what is TRULY going on.|||Because they own everything and have the loudest voices. Also, if you look at our presidential advisors throughout history, you'll notice most of them are jews; regardless of what party the president belongs to. Ultimately, we support Israel because they are strategically located in the Middle East and since we're Americans, we have to get involved in every region even when hated....that's what we do best.
