"New hate crime laws will prevent this type of anti-semitic satire" ~ Abe FoxmanNew York, NY,
June 1, 2009
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) today released the text of a letter to cartoonist Garry Trudeau concerning his Doonesbury strip of May 31, 2009:
Dear Mr. Trudeau:
We agree with the numerous people who are contacting us that Sunday's Doonesbury misquotes the Bible, maligns Judaism, and promotes a Christian heresy, all within eight panels.
It reinforces age-old stereotypes about Judaism that have been the cause of much suffering and pain over the centuries, and which have been rejected by a variety of Christian denominations over the last decades.
Jesus' concern in the Gospels is with money-changers, not money-lenders. The money-changers converted the coins of the Roman Empire into the currency accepted by the Jerusalem Temple, as money-changers today convert dollars into Euros.
To speak of money-lenders harkens back the stereotype of Shylock, when Jews were forced by Christians to engage in usury.
Christian teaching is clear: the God of the Old Testament is the same God as the God of the New Testament. Doonesbury's Reverend Sloan is guilty of promoting anti-Jewish stereotypes and biblical illiteracy.
He owes both Jews and Christians an apology.
Sincerely,
The Anti-Defamation League {source}
Anti-Semitic Incidents Decline for Fourth Straight Year in U.S., According to Annual ADL Audit {except for cartoonists and satirists} DON'T LEAVE OUT TRUTH TELLERS!
Dear Abe, the inflamed hemorrhoid on the black hole of Satan is at it again. I swear these guys LOOK for problems where there are none.
If he just kept his yap shut, people would have had a light-hearted giggle and move on. NOW we see that it is OMFG ANTI SEMITIC and these TENDER spirited members of the ADL are offended. Boo effing hoo.
I, for one, am even more tired to DEATH of this antisemitic CRAP as much as I am about the new religion of the Holocaust being shoved down my throat every five minutes.
These people do not want anyone to smile. Unless of course it is a taxable offense. Beware the Noahyde Laws now entrenched in the American legal system. It gives Fartman teeth, I am sorry to say.
Meanwhile, if we ALL said "Tell someone who CARES!" to this whining kvetching bully, he might crawl back under his rock. Oh, I can dream, can't I?
Or will he kvetch about antisemitic dreams too?
Now, to the points, seems to me that Jesus was ticked by the fact that these "Money changers" were ripping people off right, left, and centre, making great profit out of the desire of other folks to worship. Not that far from usury.

"Jews were forced by Christians to engage in usury." Gotta love that. Kind of along the line of "I hate Arabs because they FORCE us to shoot their children!" Poor innocent Jews, they never do anything but get victimized. Tell THAT to the Armenians or the Russians!
I suppose the whole deal with usury went down like this:
SCENE: England, 1289:
Christian: Here Mr. Jew, take my money.
Jew: No, NO, Mr. Christian! Don't force me! I beg you to desist!
Christian: If you don't take my money, I'll hurt you.
Jew: Okay, just this once. But don't force me again or I'll have to resort to calling you an anti-semite.
Christian: Here Mr. Jew, take my money.
Jew: No, NO, Mr. Christian! Don't force me! I beg you to desist!
Christian: If you don't take my money, I'll hurt you.
Jew: Okay, just this once. But don't force me again or I'll have to resort to calling you an anti-semite.

Since when did this creature give a flying fig about Christians deserving an apology? This arrogant group is responsible for the removal of Bibles and religion from educational facilities and the removal of all references to Christ at Christmas, enforcing the "Happy Holidays" politically correct agenda upon Americans.
These folk follow the Babylonian Talmud which says horrendous things about Jesus, especially this event at the Temple. Jesus was, after all, the first true anti Zionist in history. For this they have, in their ancient texts, nothing good to say about Him, in fact horrid things. And, they left him "in a cauldron of boiling excrement"!
By the way, that Hate Crime Bill that Fartman mentions? It also puts Sexual deviants of EVERY sickness in a position to be given preferential treatment in a court of law!
Up with pedophiles and down with cartoonists!
So how does Abe want this tale to go?
