Rabbi Yitzhak Shapiro, who heads the Od Yosef Chai Yeshiva religious school in the occupied West Bank, says Jews are allowed to murder even non-Jewish babies and children if they pose a threat to Israel, Haaretz reported.
Shapiro said Jews are allowed to kill 'those who, by speech, weaken our sovereignty'.
"It is permissible to kill the Righteous among Nations even if they are not responsible for the threatening situation," he wrote.
Several prominent rabbis, including Rabbi Yithak Ginzburg and Rabbi Yaakov Yosef, have also recommended the book to their students and followers.
During the Israeli three-week offensive on the Gaza Strip last year, some leading rabbis issued a ruling which gave permission to kill civilians in the coastal enclave.
"It is permitted, according to Jewish Law, to fire shells and bombs at the firing sites, even if they are populated by civilians," read a ruling issued by Rabbi Yaakov Yosef, Rabbi Dov Lior, Rabbi Shalom Dov Wolpe and Rabbi Meir Mazuz.
The ruling gave a free hand to Israeli commanders to attack civilian population during the war in the Gaza Strip in which at least 1500 innocent people, including women and children, were killed.
