In a rabbinical responsa
published in 1995, Ginsburgh stated that "It is forbidden to kill a non-Jew who is not making war against us."
In his 2007 book Kabbalah and Meditation for the Nations Ginsburgh writes:
has called Ginsburg "a well known radical on his views on Israel Arab public", noting his "prosecution in the past for incitement to racism after having published a book insisting that there is no place for Arabs in the state of Israel".
During the trial of seven of his students for the murder of an Arab girl during a violent settler rampage through the Palestinian West Bank
village of Kifl Hares
, Ginsburg said that in religious law, given the inequality between Arab and Jewish blood, Arabs who kill Jews warrant punishment, but Jews who kill Arabs should be let off. The Ashkenazi chief rabbi Avraham Shapiro condemned Ginzburg's views, the only one of the Israeli rabbinate to do so. He was cited as asserting at the time that: “Jewish blood is not the same as Arab blood. He who is not a Jew, and throws stones, or threatens Jews, comes under the (biblical injunction) 'you should kill him first'.”
In 1989, Ginsburg was quoted in the New York Times regarding his views on recent attacks against Palestinians and the rise of racism in Israel:
In 1994, Ginsburgh received publicity from his article "Baruch Hagever" in which he praised Baruch Goldstein
who had massacred
29 Arab worshippers at the Cave of the Patriarchs
in Hebron
. Rabbi Ginsburgh wrote that it is possible to view Baruch Goldstein's act as following five Halachic principles, namely "sanctification of God's name", "saving life" (referring to testimonies that he had allegedly received regarding a planned Arab massacre of Jews), "revenge", "eradication of the seed of Amalek
" and "war". Motti Inbari commented on this:

“Ours is the first generation in modern times to understand the truly universal human condition and to seek to bring all peoples of the earth together in peace and harmony. We are the first generation to truly understand that we are faced with the challenge of either inhabiting our planet harmoniously or not inhabiting it at all. Filling our future is the fundamentalism that threatens to pit one religion against another. But, our different relationships and understandings of G-d should not be the reason for conflict but the source of goodwill in building our relationships with one another and our ability to understand others”.

" and "war". Motti Inbari commented on this:
In his writings, Ginzburg gives prominence to Halachic and kabbalistic approaches that emphasize the distinction between Jew and non-Jew (Gentile), imposing a clear separation and hierarchy in this respect. He claims that while the Jews are the Chosen People and were created in God's image, the Gentiles do not have this status.... Ginzburg stated that, on the theoretical level, if a Jew requires a liver transplant to survive, it would be permissible to seize a Gentile and take their liver forcefully. From this point only a small further step is required to actively encourage and support the killing of non-Jews, as Ginzburg did in the case of Goldstein.
