Once again, the O-U Machers show that their true sympathies are with the Machers in Israel, rather than the poor AmCha Yidden who have to face Arab terrorists armed by Olmert and barak with 50 new armored personnel carriers, thousands of AK-47's, and millions of bullets. Olmert's friends in the PA just murdered two fine young boys in Chevron.
MKs, OU Condemn Rabbi Wolpe's 'Gallows' Remark
26 Tevet 5768, 04 January 08 12:49by Nissan Ratzlav-Katz(IsraelNN.com) Members of Knesset, ministers and a major US-based Orthodox Jewish organization condemned Rabbi Shalom Dov Wolpe on Thursday for his statements likening Prime Minister Ehud Olmert and other ministers to collaborators with the Nazis, saying that by law they should be executed. Rabbi Wolpe made the remarks on Tuesday, at a gathering of activists and supporters of SOS Israel, a rabbinic organization focused on preserving Jewish life throughout the Land of Israel.
The Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America (OU), the largest Orthodox Jewish umbrella organization in the United States, released a condemnatory statement Thursday. OU President Stephen J. Savitsky and Executive Vice President Rabbi Dr. Tzvi Hersh Weinreb said that Rabbi Wolpe's remarks were "beyond the pale of legitimate democratic protest and have no basis in Jewish law or hashkafa (philosophy)."
The OU leaders added the admonition, "We call upon all God-fearing Jews to act in a manner that brings praise to God, his People, Land and Torah."
