Neturei Karta quote archive featuring Rabbi Dovid Smith’s statement on Judaism and opposition to Zionism from a 1994 London rally.

When Israel declared independence on May 14, 1948, rabbinic opposition did not waver. The Satmar Rebbe, Rabbi Joel Teitelbaum, issued strong condemnations calling the state a violation of divine will. Neturei Karta and other Orthodox groups organized protests against statehood. Rabbi Teitelbaum later published "Vayoel Moshe" (1961) systematizing theological opposition: Israel's creation violated the Three Oaths, endangered Jews through provoking gentile nations, and represented forbidden rebellion against God's decree of exile. This opposition continues today among Satmar, Neturei Karta, and other anti-Zionist Orthodox communities who view the state as illegitimate regardless of secular political considerations.
