以色列國家新聞網(wǎng)2月18日報道，在中國政府的專程邀請下，來自亞德阿奇姆（Yad L'Achim）邪教研究組織的本亞明·克魯格（Binyamin Kluger）先生在為期四天的膜拜團體研究國際論壇上進行了發(fā)言。
本次膜拜團體研究國際論壇會議在1月召開，來自中國、俄羅斯、烏克蘭、英國、法國和美國近三十位反邪教專家參加了此次會議。兩位猶太教徒在會議上尤為引人注目。這次會議的總體目標是討論在中國渴望向世界各國專家借鑒經(jīng)驗的同時，如何與中國法輪功邪教作斗爭。
耶路撒冷猶太學者克魯格首先就邪教與傳教組織如何充分利用媒體取得精神勝利進行了發(fā)言。他告訴以色列國家新聞網(wǎng)說：“在以色列，出現(xiàn)在媒體上的文章也是譴責中國政府禁止練習法輪功，事實上，所謂的‘活摘法輪功成員器官’的證據(jù)難以獲取。美國領(lǐng)事館及英國大使館的調(diào)查員到達了被指定為集中營的地方，發(fā)現(xiàn)那只不過是一家普通的醫(yī)院?！?br>
克魯格先生說：“這種有害的邪教通過媒體得到了公眾的同情和認可?！?br>
兩方面使用媒體
“邪教利用媒體以達到他們的目的，我們也不得不使用同樣的方法?！彼嬖V以色列國家新聞網(wǎng)說，他不愿意詳細說明亞德阿奇姆的具體措施，以免事先過多“泄露”給所斗爭的團體。
“擁有有效的媒體顧問非常重要”，克魯格先生說，“當媒體開始關(guān)注某一問題時，我們也會留意此問題并持有自己的意見。”
克魯格先生說他告訴中國人，他們不能僅僅引用政府的調(diào)查研究來反對法輪功，也要引用那些既對政府不滿同時又認為邪教組織（尤其是法輪功）是有害的人所說的話。
法輪功在以色列
克魯格先生稱盡管沒有達到其所吹噓的那種程度，但法輪功在以色列還是很活躍的?！安徽搹哪囊环矫鎭碚f，它都是一個破壞性邪教：慫恿與自己的朋友、同事甚至是家人脫離關(guān)系；說醫(yī)生不能治療他們的病，因為疾病本質(zhì)上是‘精神’上的問題；教導說他們的領(lǐng)導人無所不知的，絕不能受到質(zhì)疑，等等……他們說在以色列有1000名法輪功成員，事實上可能只有500人在進行一些法輪功練習，但是這些人并沒有真正了解這個邪教所教授和宣傳的東西。在以色列的核心成員不會超過60人……但那正是所有邪教擴大自身影響力的方法：夸大自己擁有龐大人數(shù)，但那根本不真實?！?br>
當被問及在以色列的危險邪教時，克魯格先生說：“彌賽亞猶太人、科學教派及耶和華見證人，它們都是以全國的宗教與非宗教猶太人為目標的邪教，我們必須警惕?！?br>
贊頌亞德阿奇姆
美國杰出的反邪教專家瑞克·羅斯也參加了這次會議。他對克魯格和亞德阿奇姆給予了高度贊揚：“亞德阿奇姆在以色列的戰(zhàn)略戰(zhàn)術(shù)就其自身而言是值得進行科學研究的?！?br>
北京大學科學與社會研究中心主任在會議結(jié)束時同樣對克魯格先生說：“尊敬的學者，您使我們受益良多，我們對您、亞德阿奇姆及海外人民的智慧箴言和勇敢行為表示萬分感激。”

Yad L'Achim advises Chinese on Cult-Fighting
(IsraelNN.com) At the express invitation of the Chinese Government, Rabbi Binyamin Kluger of the Yad L'Achim anti-missionary organization and Raphael Aron, Director of Cult Counseling Australia, spoke at a four-day conference in southern China on cult-fighting strategies.
The two bearded Orthodox Jews stood out blatantly at the late-January conference, the International Forum on Cultic Studies, which featured some 30 anti-cult experts from China, Russia, Ukraine, England, France, and the United States. The conference's overall objective was to discuss ways to combat the influence of the Falun Gong cult in China, with the Chinese eager to learn from the experience of experts from around the world.
Rabbi Kluger of Jerusalem spoke primarily about how cults and missionary groups take full advantage of the media in their struggle to win over souls. "Even in Israel," he told IsraelNationalNews.com, "articles appear in the media condemning the Chinese Government for its treatment of the Falun Gong – when in fact proof of the alleged ‘harvesting of organs' from live Falun Gong members has been hard to come by. Investigators from the US Consulate and the British Embassy who arrived at the place that had been pointed out as the central extermination camp found that it was nothing more than a normal hospital."
"I'm not saying there is no Chinese persecution at all of Falun Gong," Rabbi Kluger said, "but it is far from the extent that is often reported – and in the meantime, this harmful cult receives public sympathy and recognition via the media. "
Using the Media Both Ways
"Cults use the media for their own purposes, so we have to do the same," he told IsraelNationalNews, preferring not to elaborate on Yad La'Achim's specific measures so as not to "tip off" the groups it is fighting.
"It is also important to have effective media advisors," Rabbi Kluger said. "When the media starts paying attention to a certain issue, we have to be alerted and get our own opinion in there as well."
Rabbi Kluger said he told the Chinese "that they can't only quote government-backed studies against Falun Gong. They have to be willing to also quote people who may be critical of the government but who, at the same time, show that the cults, and particularly Falun Gong, are harmful."
In Israel
Rabbi Kluger said that Falun Gong is active in Israel, though not to the extent that the cult boasts. "It's a destructive cult in all senses: encouraging the detaching of relations with friends, colleagues and sometimes also family members; saying that doctors cannot cure illnesses because they are ‘spiritual' in nature; teaching that the leader is all-knowing and can never be challenged, etc. … They say they have 1,000 members in Israel, when in fact there are maybe 500 people who have practiced some of its exercises, but who don't really know anything about what the cult teaches and promotes. The hard-core in Israel is not more than 60 people… But that's how all cults work: they brag about their vast numbers, which are simply not true."
Asked to name the most dangerous cults in Israel, Rabbi Kluger said, "Messianic Jews, Scientology, and Je-hova's Witnesses. They target religious and non-religious Jews all over the country, and we must be vigilant."
Praise for Yad L'Achim
Prominent U.S. anti-cult expert Rick Ross, who also attended the conference, had lavish words of praise for Kluger and Yad L'Achim: "The strategies and tactics of Yad L'Achim in Israel deserve a scientific study in and of themselves."
Similarly, the Head of the Social Sciences Department in Beijing University, who MC'd the conference, told Rabbi Kluger at the closing session, "Honored rabbi, you have enriched us greatly and we are full of appreciation for the words of wisdom and courageous activities that you, the people at Yad L'Achim, oversee."
