Jews apparently not for Jesus
JERUSALEM: Orthodox Jews set fire to hundreds of copies of the New Testament in the latest act of violence against Christian missionaries in the Holy Land.
Or Yehuda Deputy Mayor Uzi Aharon said missionaries recently entered a neighborhood in the predominantly religious town of 34,000 in central Israel, distributing hundreds of New Testaments and missionary material.
After receiving complaints, Aharon said, he got into a loudspeaker car last Thursday and drove through the neighborhood, urging people to turn over the material to Jewish religious students who went door to door to collect it.
The books were dumped into a pile and set afire in a lot near a synagogue, he said.
Jews burning books.
Sorry, let me say that again in case you're afraid you've become a victim of spontaneous dyslexia:
Jews burning books.
Members of a tradition that rightly prides itself on its prodigious intellectual heritage burning books. Members of a religion in which, in order to be considered a full adult one has to demonstrate to the community that one is literate...burning books.
Is there anything that is beautiful about Judaism that Zionism cannot or will not desecrate and despoil?
Members of a minority group whose historic slaughter was perpetrated by fanatics who infamously burned books...burning books.
Is there one victim of the Holocaust whose grave Zionism has not pissed on?
