A former Chief Rabbi of Israel, Elyahu was a chief mentor for the Gush Emunim settler movement.

“If I were an Arab leader, I would never sign an agreement with Israel. It is normal; we have taken their country. It is true God promised it to us, but how could that interest them? Our God is not theirs. There has been Anti – Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, [...]
