<p>A magazine issued by religious Zionists in Israel called for the creation of &#8216;death camps&#8217; for Palestinians.</p>
<p>In a report Saturday, Israeli news site Ynet brought to attention a  weekly magazine, distributed in synagogues across Israel, which  published a religious decree. The diktat, signed by major rabbis, called  for the creation of such death camps, citing religious duty.</p>
<p>The magazine indicated that the creation of these camps would be the duty of all devote Jews.</p>
<p>The &#8216;fatwa&#8217; strongly criticised rabbis in opposition, arguing that  Palestinians are the &#8216;giants&#8217; –perhaps a reference to the Biblical  Goliath &#8212; whom God ordered the Israelites to slaughter 2000 years ago  &#8212; children, women, elders and even cattle.</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The rabbis claimed that the Torah compels the Jews to erase all trace of this age&#8217;s giants, referring to the Palestinians.</p>
<p>Even the rabbis that did not sign the fatwa support it in essence, they insisted.</p>
<p>Israeli thinker UdiAloni explained that the call for the elimination  of the Palestinians &#8212; in such a widespread and public way, notably in  synagogues &#8212; arises from a collective acceptance that this is a  pragmatic approach.</p>
<p>Aloni was shocked no one objected to the rabbis who signed the fatwa,  saying that &#8220;no one attempted to object, and no one thought of  excommunicating these rabbis from the Israeli nation&#8221;, according to the  Ynet report.</p>
