For the sake of Jerusalem, DON'T LET THEM MARCH!!! Don't defile the Holy City by allowing these perverts to march!

excerpt

Jerusalem Mayor Uri Lupoliansky told reporters last night that he personally opposes the parade, but added that police will be able to protect the marchers if they go ahead with the event.


The leader of Jerusalem’s Eida Hareidit Rabbinical Court, Rabbi Yitzchak Tuvia Weiss, has contacted hareidi-Orthodox leaders affiliated with the Satmar Hassidic sect in New York City to coordinate overseas protests.

It was decided that on Thursday at 3:30pm (NY Time), a protest will be held outside the Israeli Consulate on 42nd Street in Manhattan which is expected to draw tens of thousands.

Satmar, based in the Williamsburg area of Brooklyn, is affiliated with the Eida Hareidit and is considered the largest hassidic sect in the world, numbering over 120,000.


The Vatican on Wednesday night released a statement, calling on Israel to rethink permitting the gay parade.

The Vatican stated permitting the parade will be an affront to all three religions -- Judaism, Christianity, and Islam – and called on Israel to limit freedom of speech to that which is correct.

And again, they have to have to whine to get their way and flaunt it in decent people's faces. Funny, there's never a straight parade.

And with this decision, the entire world will see how well and reverently Jews maintain stewardship of Jerusalem.

The entirety of which "should" be treated as a religious site and thus exempted from bacchanalia.

Can they hold this march in East Jerusalem, Gaza perhaps.

I'm sure Hamas would welcome them with open arms.

There have been protests in the streets of Jerusalem for days now and talk of a million man march to counter it tomorrow.

1. Yes, let's squelch free association and expression!
They'd all love that, now wouldn't they?

2. This from people who claim to love and support Israel so much
Fact is, Israel has a very generous liberal social welfare state.

4. No offense, but if I wanted to read FR, I would go there.
I am quite aware of the presence of millions of idiots in this country.

I don't need to see their shit smeared all over the place.

7. Then why would you click on a thread with this very clear title?
:shrug: Why aggravate yourself? I know how you feel, though. I have that same response to threads quoting fundies.

8. To give my opinion on posting FR links here at DU.
Seemed pretty obvious to me.

Got a problem with that?

9. Not at all. Just seems odd to aggravate yourself and kick a thread you dislike.
And, gee, I thought it was pretty obvious that I was saying I understood your frustration and wondered why you would willingly do that to yourself. But... my mistake. :eyes:

10. That's why I made the topic pretty clear in the subject line....
To give those who don't want to read Freeper commentary warning so that they don't open the thread.

5. '"should" be treated as a religious site and thus exempted from bacchanalia.'
Uh...apparently they don't realize that the original bacchanalia...were RELIGIOUS festivals...honoring the god Bacchus.
