All the whining about "freedom" and "pluralism" and "diversity" dries up when lefties see a chance to hammer others into submission. Amazing, too, is the breezy acceptance by all these Jews - from those framing the law to the poster here - of the lack of separation of church and state. For any member of a minority group, that's not a feature - but a bug and a threat to freedom of conscience. Just last month the House of Lords imposed upon the Jewish community and schools the Lords' own definition of "who is a Jew". Remember? Oh, but wait - silly me - it's not about freedom of conscience or any of those fine "progressive" words - it's about bringing the Goyim in to force those knuckle-dragging Orthodox to get with the program... and because we KNOW we're right(eous) any slimy tool can be used to further our way... ...because when WE force others to agree with us, it's standing up for TOLERANCE and DIVERSITY... yeah, that's right... somehow... and anyway, we KNOW we're right. This is just repulsive - like the Hellenists inviting the Greeks in to sack Jerusalem. No better than "mosrim".

I don't want to alienate any Jew, but they would get that impression by what I have to say. So I hold back for now and I think I will go watch that leadel clip again.

Just comment intelligently and back your opinions with facts and we should be ok.

So given that, there's nothing really to comment on here.
