Half of the boys get buggered. The rest run faster. Then the Main Stream Media complain about Catholic priests alleged to be doing the same.

 

PEDOPHILIA RAMPANT IN ORTHODOX JUDAISM 

By Rev. Ted Pike,


From its founding by the ancient Pharisees and still today, Orthodox Judaism
is Judaism. [1] The state of Israel officially endorses Orthodoxy. For 2,000
years-since before such relatively recent variants as Conservative and
Reform Judaism branched off-Talmud-believing Orthodox Judaism has been the
spiritual center of gravity of the Jewish people. [2]


Now the Associated Press reports that the Orthodox Jewish community
struggles to contain what has been a closely guarded secret: pedophilia. [3]
AP says that, especially in areas most populated by Orthodox Jews (such as
New York where 37 percent of Jews are Orthodox), widespread sexual
molestation of children can no longer be denied. Yet "initiatives
encouraging victims to come forward or offering support for those claiming
they were molested encounter strong opposition, lead to death-threats in the
Jewish community."


In a previous e-alert, "Pedophilia: Thriving in Judaism's Right Wing" [4], I
related how an Orthodox Jew, Dov Hikind, a Brooklyn assemblyman, is
attempting to address what AP calls "a taboo subject" among the Orthodox.


Since Hikind broached the subject on his radio show this summer, "dozens of
people have come forward with stories about children being molested in the
Orthodox community which strictly follows Jewish law. Dov Hikind says as many
as four people a day have come to him over the past three months with
painful accounts of secrets often kept for decades, accusing more than sixty
individuals."


Yet the assemblyman and radio host faces increasing opposition from many
Orthodox Jews who practice pedophilia, condone it, or look the other way.
"His campaign has set off a firestorm in the Orthodox community, where
people are reluctant to involve secular authorities. One rabbi said he got
death threats for speaking out." Hikind said:"In our community, people don't
talk about the things they've come to my office and revealed." He said he
encourages people who confide in him to talk to Jewish authorities. But none
will, he said, for fear of ostracism.


"One rabbi and psychologist told Jewish media outlets he was hounded into
quitting a task force on child molestation days after Hikind appointed him
to lead it. Another New York rabbi told the Daily News this month that
vicious fliers and death threat calls scared him into shutting down a sex
abuse victims hot-line he had set up."


Six former students are suing an Orthodox school in New York for allegedly
covering up the abuse of Rabbi Yehuda Kolkol, charged with sexually
molesting boys. He pled guilty to a lesser charge and was put on probation.
Hikind has been subpoenaed to testify as to further evidence against Kolkol
or other school staffers. [5] Michael Daud, lawyer for the six students, won
$11.4 million in damages against a Catholic youth minister who raped two
teens on Long Island. With an initial 60 cases of pedophilia emerging, Daud
could win similar restitution through judgments against persons in the
wealthy Brooklyn Orthodox community.


Why Do They Do It?


Actually, the existence of pedophilia is not Orthodoxy's best kept secret.
What truly cannot be uttered by the Jewish community or media worldwide is
that the Talmud, Judaism's highest legal authority, encourages pedophilia.
If this fact became widely known, it could destroy Judaism as one of the
world's great religions.  It would confirm millennia of "anti-Semitic"
accusations (beginning with Jesus' incendiary attacks on the Pharisees) that
pharisaic Judaism is based on gutter values.


In my article "Pedophilia: the Talmud's Dirty Secret" [6] I document that
the greatest Talmudic sages repeatedly upheld the right of Jewish men to
marry 3-year-old baby girls by having sex with them. The more Orthodox
Judaism is, the more literally it follows every dictum of such rabbinic
authorities. Shockingly, one of the most revered rabbis of the Talmud,
Simeon ben Yohai, asserts "that a proselyte under the age of three years and
one day may be married to a priest." [7]


The Talmud says ben Yohai's endorsement of pedophilia is "halachah," binding
Jewish law (Yebamoth 60b).


Pedophilia in Israel Today


In a related story, YnetNews.com says that in Israel, "in spite of efforts
by welfare officials, local rabbis, state authorities are unable to curb
rampant child abuse in ultra-Orthodox families."


It says there emerges "One harrowing case after another, yet welfare
officials stand by helpless: faced with a string of heart-wrenching cases of
child abuse in the haredi [ultra-Orthodox]."


"One recent disturbing case, for instance, in which a Netivot mother had
sexually abused her son, only came to light when the son began attending
boarding school and molested a fellow pupil. The social workers who handled
his case quickly realized that the child had no idea that what he had done
was wrong." [8]


Incredibly, this, too, is sanctioned by the Talmud. In my article "Judaism
and Homosexuality: A Marriage Made in Hell" [9], I document the Talmud's
repeated permission for women to have sex with boys under age nine.  It says
such relations are non-sexual and without moral implications. Sanhedrin 69b
asserts that "if a woman sported lewdly with her young son [a minor], and he
committed the first stage of cohabitation with her [penetration]," -the
rabbinic school of the great Hillel (namesake of New York's Jewish Hillel
Theological Seminary) declared her "fit for the priesthood" (Sanhedrin 69b).


The Talmud gives the clear impression that boys under age nine are fair game
for sexual predation by women and even men. Such passages are not obscure,
infrequent, or difficult to find. They are readily encountered in perusal of
Talmudic treatises Kethuboth, Yebamoth, and Sanhedrin.


The extreme devotion of Orthodox Jews to obedience to every jot and tittle
of the Talmud powerfully inclines us to suspect that Talmudic sanction of
pedophilia may underlie the problem of pedophilia in Judaism today.


Is There a Solution?


What can be done? Unlike pedophilia among Catholic priests-which largely
results from unnatural repression of human need and is sternly disapproved
by the Catholic Church-pedophilia in Judaism enjoys frequent, conspicuous,
and enthusiastic support from Judaism's greatest authority, the Talmud. No
rabbinate would dare excise its pro-pedophilia passages. These shocking
dictums are inextricably linked not only to the infinitely complex and
tortuous legal arguments of Talmudic rabbis but also to the authority of its
greatest sages. Every year in Israel, tens of thousands of Orthodox Jews
gather in Meron, the birthplace of Simeon ben Yohai, to feast, dance and
sing for three days in honor of his memory. Yet as I stated earlier, ben
Yohai is the Talmud's most influential promoter of pedophilia!


The rapidly growing power of ultra-Orthodox in Israel makes it unlikely that
they will be lectured out of indulgence in pedophilia. Jewish social
reformers and welfare workers confirm the difficulty, even physical danger,
of such a task. Orthodox Judaism is now ascendant in its legalistic
rectitude after two centuries of permissive Jewish religious experimentation
(which they claim has resulted in worldliness and assimilation); its leaders
are in no mood to weaken Talmudic authority.


More than 2,000 years ago, pedophilia was encouraged by the Pharisaic school
of Hillel. It will be around for a long time to come. It is part of that
state of "all uncleanness" that Christ said is intrinsic to Pharisaism
(Matt. 23:27). It will endure until that day when Christ at last obtains a
pure and repentant remnant of believing Jews out of the destruction of "the
great harlot," international Jewish control (Rev. 18). Then, Scripture
promises, He "will have washed away the filth of the daughters of Zion"
(Is.4:4).


Until that time, the prophet Isaiah still cries out from God, "Oh my people,
they which lead thee, cause thee to err." (Isaiah 3:12)


Endnotes:


1.  "The Jewish religion as it is today traces its descent without a break
through all the centuries from the Pharisees.   Their leading ideas and
methods found expression in a literature of enormous extent, of which a very
great deal is still in existence.  The Talmud is the largest and most
important single piece of that literature. and the study of it is essential
for any real understanding of Pharisaism." (The Universal Jewish
Encyclopedia, article on Judaism, p. 474.)

5.  Hikind's response to Orthodox child abuse elicits sharp criticism from a
former Orthodox Jew.
<http://www.truthtellers.org/cgi-bin/openwebmail/www.failedmessiah.com>
Failed Messiah is written by ex-observantly Orthodox Jew Shmarya Rosenberg;
his blog has made him one of Forward's top 50 most influential Jews of 2008.
Rosenberg began his blog as an observant Orthodox Jew but when his
criticisms of Orthodox criminal activity "got him into hot water with the
local Orthodox Jewish community, Rosenberg chose his blog and left his
observance behind."
<http://failedmessiah.typepad.com/failed_messiahcom/crime/index.html> His
index of blog posts includes over 700 entries about Orthodox crime.


In his blog, Rosenberg
<http://failedmessiah.typepad.com/failed_messiahcom/crime.html> summarizes
shocking research on rabbinic sexual abuse of children. He provides links to
the case of an "alleged haredi child rapist [Avrohom Mondrowitz]"  who "fled
the US for Israel at the urging of haredi leaders as he was being indicted
for raping young boys. He lived safely in Jerusalem for over 20 years, under
the protection of the Ger Hasidic community and its rebbes."


Regarding the Kolko case, Rosenberg
<http://failedmessiah.typepad.com/failed_messiahcom/2008/11/getting-ha...
tml> criticizes Hikind for wanting Brooklyn rabbis to deal with the problem
and vowing to face jail rather than divulge victims' names. "Many of these
same rabbis have known about some of this evidence for years. Indeed, some
of them have actively covered it up. Hikind is, in effect, asking criminals
to help him protect the victims they hurt," says Rosenberg.


He is also critical because Hikind wants rapists, "who are often rabbis,
rebbes, and yeshiva teachers," penalized by the religious community not the
secular criminal justice system. "This means no sex offender registry for
Hikind's abusers. No closely supervised release. No sharing of information
across neighborhoods and across countries. An abuser can simply skip
Brooklyn for Israel (or for St. Louis, for that matter) and start abusing
all over again."


Rosenberg says Hikind's reluctance to submit Jewish rapists to secular
authority is horrifying. A child abuser may be set aside as psychopathic,
conscience-dead, or a victim of abuse himself. But Hikind, according to
Rosenberg, as a New York assemblyman, talk radio host, father, and leader in
the Orthodox community, is not living up to his responsibilities; his
personal response to the haredi abuses-refusal to actively aid secular
prosecution-reveals volumes about the extent of participation in pedophilia
in the Orthodox community and the power of influential Jewish pedophiles to
silence opposition.

Is Israel About to Trigger a New Middle East War?

By Conn Hallinan, AlterNet
Posted on April 3, 2010, Printed on April 3, 2010
http://www.alternet.org/story/146289/


When Israeli Minister without Portfolio Yossi Peled said recently that a war
with Lebanon's Hezbollah was "just a matter of time" and that such a
conflict would include Syria, most observers dismissed the comment as little
more than posturing by a right-wing former general. But Peled's threat has
been backed by Israeli military maneuvers near the Lebanese border,
violations of Lebanese airspace, and the deployment of an anti- missile
system on Israel's northern border.


The Lebanese are certainly not treating it as Likud bombast.


"We hear a lot of Israeli threats day in and day out, and not only threats,"
Lebanese Prime Minister Saad Hariri told the BBC. "We see what is happening
on the ground and in our airspace. During the past two months-every day we
have Israeli airplanes entering Lebanese airspace." Hariri added that he
considered the situation "really dangerous."


The increasing tension was behind the recent visit to Beirut by Senator
Philippe Marini, French President Nicholas Sarkozy's special envoy to
Lebanon. After Marini met with Hariri, Christian Lebanese Forces leader
Samir Geagea, and Hezbollah leaders, the envoy said that he feared a
Hezbollah-Israel rematch could easily become a regional war.


Rhetoric all over the region is heating up.


Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman first said that Israel would
never return the Golan Heights to Syria, prompting Syria's Foreign Minister
Walid al- Muallem to comment that Israel "should not test Syria's
determination." Lieberman responded by taking direct aim at Syrian President
Bashar Assad: "In the next war, not only will you lose, but you and your
family will lose the regime."


Israel attacked Lebanon in 2006 following a Hezbollah raid that captured two
Israeli soldiers. The 34-day war cost Lebanon more than 1,000 dead, and tens
of billions of dollars in damage to bridges, roads, airports, and towns. But
the war also saw the once-invincible Israeli Self-Defense Forces (IDF)
fought to a bloody standstill, and a barrage of some 4,000 Hezbollah rockets
into Israel.


Many in the Israeli military would love to re-establish the IDF's reputation
by beating up on Hezbollah, but the Shiite-based militia has broad support
throughout Lebanon, as the last elections demonstrated. While the
"pro-western" March 14 Movement won the most seats-largely as a result of
ethnic gerrymandering-the Hezbollah bloc won the most votes. In any case,
the March 14 Movement has begun to unravel with the defection of Druze
leader Walid Jumblatt.


Lebanon is a deeply fractious place, but an Israeli attack would unite the
country as it did in 2006. "I think they're [Israelis] betting that there
might be some division in Lebanon if there is war against us," said Hariri,
"Well, there won't be a division in Lebanon. We will stand against Israel.
We will stand with our own people."


Lebanon's military is no match for Israel. It has a small army and its air
force consists of two grounded 1950s vintage Hawker Hunter fighter-bombers,
plus a motley collection of helicopters, most of which are not operational.
In the 2007 fight with Islamic extremists in Tripoli, Lebanese Army soldiers
pitched bombs out of French Gazelle helicopters by hand.


As the IDF found out in 2006, however, Hezbollah is a different matter. Of
course, a massive Israeli ground invasion would overwhelm the group's
militia, but any occupation of South Lebanon will conjure up old nightmares
for Tel Aviv. It was Hezbollah's roadside bombs and ambushes that drove the
IDF out of the same area in 2000.


The Israelis are threatening to flatten the entire country if it comes to
war-"taking off the gloves" as Israel military analyst Yisrael Katzover puts
it-and they certainly have the capabilities to inflict a stunning amount of
damage. But Hezbollah claims it has some thunder of its own. Hassan
Nasrallah, the group's leader, vows to bring Tel Aviv's Ben-Gurion Airport
under fire if Israel bombs Beirut's Rafik Hariri International Airport as it
did in 2006. "If you hit our ports, we will hit your ports," Nasrallah said
Feb. 21.


According to Israeli intelligence, Hezbollah has 42,000 rockets, some with
the range to hit Tel Aviv and targets further south. Whether the group
actually has that many rockets is unclear. Israel tends to pump up the
threat its antagonists pose. In any case, Hezbollah certainly has rockets
and demonstrated its ability to strike northern Israel in 2006. If Nasrallah
is to be believed, it may be able to bring central Israel under fire as
well.


Does the war have the potential to become regional?


Only if Israel decides to make it so. While the Netanyahu government talks
about Hezbollah being little more than a cat's paw for Iran and Syria, the
group has deep roots in the country's long-repressed Shiite majority. It
does receive arms from both Damascus and Iran, and Teheran also gives the
group about $200 million a year in aid. That is, however, a tiny portion of
Hezbollah's annual budget.


Lebanon's Shiites are also quite different than their Iranian counterparts.
While Iran's mullahs dominate civil and economic matters, Lebanon's Shiites
are suspicious of direct involvement in government, because they believe
that it will ultimately corrupt Islam. A number of Iraq's Shiites, including
Grand Ayatollah Ali al-Sistani, come from a similar current in the Shiite
sect.


Hezbollah is quite aware of the damage that Israel can inflict, and, is
consequently unlikely to do anything provocative. As Azmi Bishara, a
Palestinian and former Israeli Knesset members writes in Al-Ahram,
"Hezbollah has made it clear it intends to avoid giving Israel any excuse to
go to war."


As for Syria, the last thing Damascus wants is a war. Its economy is
humming, its careful diplomacy has lifted it out of isolation, and over the
past several months world leaders from France and Spain, and regional
governments-including Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Iraq, and Turkey- have beaten a
path to President Assad's door. When U.S. Special Forces violated the Syrian
border while looking for al-Qaeda terrorists last year, the Assad
government's response was a mild protest. When Israel bombed a site in
northern Syria, the Damascus government did nothing. Syria has nothing to
gain, and much to lose, from a war.


Israel has moved its new Iron Dome anti-missile system to its northern
border, even though the original plan was to deploy it in the south to
intercept rockets fired from Gaza. The system is supposed to be up and
running by June. "Making Iron Dome operational will transform Israel's
diplomatic and security situation," says Israeli Defense Ministry director
general Pinhas Buchris.


Given that Hezbollah has not fired a rocket at Israel since the summer of
2006, why would Tel Aviv move Iron Dome to the northern border unless it was
to assure the Israeli public that it will not come under fire in the advent
of a new war? In any case, Iron Dome is unlikely to transform anything,
since anti-missile systems tend to be more about hype and hope than
performance.


There is, of course, the possibility that the Israelis will bet the house
and hit Lebanon, Syria and possibly Iran's nuclear facilities. The rhetoric
coming out of the Netanyahu government ties all three countries together,
which is why Peled lumped Syria with Lebanon. The standard line coming out
of Tel Aviv is that Iran is behind everything, including Hamas.


Any rational reading of the Middle East makes that charge difficult to
credit. Iran commands neither Syria nor Hezbollah, and while Teheran might
provide arms to Hamas, a radical Sunni organization is unlikely to go to war
because a Shiite government told it to. The only one of those parties that
might welcome a war with Israel is Iran, but only so that the Ahmadinejad
regime can use it as an excuse to crack down on internal dissent.


Many in the Israeli establishment openly advocate attacking Iran. Danny
Yaton, former head of Israel's intelligence agency, Mossad, told the German
Council on Foreign Relations "The entire world should take military action
to prevent Iran from getting the bomb."


The Sunday Times (London) reports, "According to well-placed sources, Israel
is speeding up preparations for a possible attack on Iran's nuclear sites."
The Israeli daily Haaretz says that the Netanyahu government is asking the
Obama administration to supply Israel with GBU-28 "bunker buster" bombs and
refueling tanker aircraft, both which would be essential for a strike at
Iran.


But some in the Israeli military establishment seems reluctant to launch
such an attack. Brigadier-General Uzi Eilam, an Israel war hero and a man
the Sunday Times calls a "pillar of the defense establishment," says that
Iran is a "very, very, very long way from building a nuclear capacity."
Eilam charges, "The intelligence community is spreading frightening voices
about Iran," and that such an attack would be "counter productive."


Maybe this is all saber rattling aimed at getting the U.S. to step up the
pressure on Iran, Syria and Lebanon. Maybe, as Eilam charges, it is all
about the IDF getting "a bigger budget." Maybe it is a diversion from the
charges that Israel committed war crimes in its invasion of Gaza, its
settlement building on the West Bank, and the diplomatic storm it has reaped
from its assassination of a Hamas official in Dubai.


But ramping up the rhetoric of war in a volatile region can lead to a
misstep-by accident or design-and once the dogs of war are off their leash,
it will be hard to bring them to heel.


Late development: The U.S. is transporting 387 bunker-busters, including
BLU-110 and massive BLU-117 bombs, to the British controlled Island of Diego
Garcia in the Indian Ocean, suggesting that Washington is still
contemplating an attack on Iran-or wants Teheran to think so.
