Lot 138:
Lone page with a prayer against Gamal Abdel Nassar and King Hussein ibn Talal (King of Jordan). Printed, various stains, generally good condition. About ten years ago, there was controversy in Egypt when Rabbi Benayahu Shmueli discovered that in 1970, a few years before the death of President Nasser, three kabbalistic sages of Jerusalem, Rav Shaul David Hai Mualem (of Yeshivat Porat Yosef), Rabbi Yosef Sharok, and Rabbi Yitzhak Khadouri, undertook a mystical-magical ceremony, “because Nasser had thought of causing troubles, they decided to eliminate him,” Rav Shmueli said. The printed page before us is the nusach of the prayer that they said.
