Comments on: The Hebron Evacuation http://blog.z-word.com/2008/12/the-hebron-evacuation/ Commentary about Zionism, anti-Zionism, antisemitism and the conflict in the Middle East Thu, 09 Feb 2012 05:09:27 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.5-RC1.1 By: Noga http://blog.z-word.com/2008/12/the-hebron-evacuation/#comment-2389 Noga Thu, 04 Dec 2008 19:28:28 +0000 http://blog.z-word.com/?p=631#comment-2389 Come to think of it, why am I even surprised? People in the throes of religious fervour, whichever direction it takes, seem to share in this type of moral depravity in their thinking. Anecdotal experience: "The March to Jerusalem", a traditional way of celebrating Israel's Independence Day in Montreal, takes place along a 10 km route. Last May, we participated in the "march". A group of Naturei Karta was standing in demonstration mode, holding signs that denounced Israel and Zionists as the great heretics against Hashem. As my eight-year old daughter and I were walking by this pathetically ridiculous parade, I heard them yelling in our direction: Pritzes! (whores). The difference being that these religious fanatics would never upgrade this invective to a violent phase. Which may make them repulsive and quaint, but not dangerous. Those Hebronites are armed to the teeth. There is no telling where they can go next. Here is an article by Ami Isseroff in which he makes very much the same point that Eamonn does. http://www.zionism-israel.com/log/archives/00000601.html Come to think of it, why am I even surprised?

You know what? Words like "scum" seem like a woefully inadequate description of these vulgar brutes. I don't know who or what they think they are. Acid?? Bloody unbelievable. ” A nigger does not expel a Jew!”
