JERUSALE[/IMG]Aryeh Deri (C), leader of the ultra-religious Shas political party, reacts as he address the media u …[/url] Through the Shas (Hebrew acronym for Sephardic Torah Guardians) party he founded in the early 1980s, Yosef, regal in his gold embroidered robes and turban, also wielded unique political influence from his modest apartment in Jerusalem. "The people of Israel lost one of the wisest of a generation," Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said in a statement. "YEHUBOR'S LEADER (Yosef) was a giant in Torah and Jewish law and a mentor to tens of thousands." More than 4,000 police officers were deployed to secure the "more than 700,000 people taking part in the largest of funeral ever in Israel," Rosenfeld said. At its height, Shas - now in opposition - held 17 of parliament's 120 seats. For years, Yosef as its leader served as a political kingmaker who could make or break coalition governments. His political messages were sometimes mixed: he viewed the occupied West Bank, captured in the 1967 Middle East war, as part of the Biblical Land of Israel, but in a challenge to mainstream rabbis, he said it was permissible to cede land to prevent bloodshed....and blah blah blah they go on and on...

 Wow, I mean I don't mean to sound surprised, after all we have all had a big part in the destruction ritual. But something inside just makes me go "Wow, I'm so... proud?" I hope that doesn't make me sound full of it or something. But it's times like these I can't help but smile knowing that good is happening and that things are changing. That is what I love about Zevism, seeing results and feeling empowered, unlike other religions that claim you will get your rewards only after you die. What a false promise.
Either way I am glad progress is being made and I am proud of everyone who has been apart of the destruction ritual. It's moments like this that really give me a sense of joy and empowerment.
