Tzedek Tzedek Tirdoff has become the war cry of Jewish activists around the world, and it is needed now more than ever before.
"Justice, You Shall Pursue Justice" is biblical phrase that has become a foundational part of Jewish ideology and tradition. In the book of Deuteronomy (Devarim in hebrew), Moses is tasked with appointing judges and officials to order within the 12 Tribes of Israel. He says to them "and they shall govern the people with due justice. You shall not judge unfairly".
