ADL Urges Israeli Chief Rabbinate to Denounce Ultra-Orthodox Practice of Spitting at Christians

New York, NY, December 7, 2011 … The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has called on the Chief Rabbinate of Israel to publicly denounce the repulsive decades-old practice by ultra-Orthodox Jews of spitting at Christian clergymen they encounter in the street.

"This repulsive practice is a hateful act of persecution against another faith group and a desecration of God's name according to Jewish law," said Abraham H. Foxman, ADL National Director. "

This display of hate and bigotry has no place in Israel and is inimical to Jewish values of treating all people with respect and kindness."

In a letter to Chief Rabbis Shlomo Amar and Yona Metzger, ADL urged the rabbinical leaders to meet with Haredi leaders in an effort to end the practice and to join together to educate their community about having respect for coexistence with other faiths.

"Let us pray for the faithless Jews, that the Lord may take the veil from their hearts and that they also may acknowledge our Lord Jesus Christ." Let us pray, Let us kneel....St. Andrew Missal

Lol, If it wasn't for Christians the Jews would be wiped off the face of the earth! We are their only friends the rest of the world wants to kill them. Maybe we Christian nations should forget about the Jews and see how long it takes for the Muslims act.

Let us also pray for the Jews that God our Lord should illuminate their hearts, so that they will recognize Jesus Christ, the Savior of all men.
Let us pray. Let us genuflect. Rise.
All-powerful and eternal God, you who wish that all men be saved and come to the recognition of truth, graciously grant that when the fullness of peoples enters your Church all of Israel will be saved.

While the ADL is at it, how about prohibiting the discrimination of the Palestinian people, letting them freely come and go into their native homeland, and permitting them to live with Jews in a free society, rather than a police state. Zionist Jews are arrogant bigots who think the Goy are animals and need to be treated as such.
