I tako, većina Srbadije na forumu postade obožavatelj islamskog fundamentalizma šiitskog tipa.
Od naroda u kom do pre 25 godina antisemitizam nije postojao, sada imamo odnegovano hiljade stručnjaka koji će ti objasniti da su za sve devedesetih krivi Jevreji.
Po kom osnovu bi oni ultraortodoksni bili bolji (prema Hrišćanima kojima inače
duguju baš sve) od recimo Aljbanaca? Ne mogu baš da “primene mere” kao Kurtijevi Šiptari na Kosovu prema Srbima jer je Izrael ipak pravna država, ali izraelska vlast bukvalno NE SME da reaguje na ovakve bedastoće:
Attacks on Christians increase in Israel
The Holy Land’s Christians have suffered a “disturbing rise” in attacks, including spitting, physical harassment, damage to property and cemeteries, and the disruption of services.
The findings are part of a report by the Jerusalem-based Rossing Center, called “
Attacks on Christians in Israel and East Jerusalem,” which examined the increase in hostilities toward Churches and their members in 2023.
Speaking to Catholic charity Aid to the Church in Need (ACN), Hana Bendcowsky from the Rossing Center categorized the problems faced by Christians in the region as either “smash” or “squeeze,” terms used by human rights observers.
“The ‘smash’ describes incidents like the attack on the Church of the Flagellation, where a
statue was smashed with a hammer,” she explained.
These violent attacks are mostly carried out by young, marginalized, ultra-Orthodox Jewish men with hardline-nationalist views, she added. But “even among the ultra-Orthodox, such behavior is not normal; the majority would not go into a church and
smash a statue of Jesus.”
“And the ‘squeeze’ pushes members of the community away,” she said. “They are incidents like
priests being spat at, or a nun being told to take off her cross when she goes to the hospital. The community is shaken, and it feels uncomfortable. You feel as though no one wants you – lay people don’t feel this so much as the clergy, but they are part of Israel, and they should feel comfortable in this homeland. We should make sure they do.”
Bendcowsky also said that unlike the physically violent attacks, these cases of spitting or verbal harassment are carried out by “members of the ultra-Orthodox community, both men and women, young and old. These could be your neighbors. You could see them playing with your children.”
Abbot Nikodemus Schnabel of the Benedictine Dormition Abbey in East Jerusalem says that the spitting incidents, in particular, have become a daily occurrence. “Unfortunately,
spitting harassment is a part of my daily life. If I go out of my monastery, it is part of my reality. It is a tiny group; I call them the hooligans of religion. Of course, there are many Jews who are really wonderful people, who support us and are very happy we are here, but the sad truth is that we have this phenomenon, and it is not rare. As a monastery, we have also had arson attacks, hate graffiti, and broken windows, and it is growing and growing.”
Bendcowsky suggested that spitting has always been a problem, but modern technology allows it to be recorded, so there is more evidence of it.
Nevertheless, she believes that the 30 incidents recorded last year are probably just the tip of the iceberg.
“We need to educate people. You don’t have to like other people, but you don’t have to spit at them when you see them in the street. The Church has the strength to say it can hold its own, as it’s been here for 2,000 years, and say it can survive, but these events can push the laity away and cause them to leave.”
The “Attacks on Christians in Israel and East Jerusalem” report noted that “when police intervention took place, it was helpful.”
Police presence was effective in ending the picketing of the Carmelite monastery of Stella Maris, Haifa, by followers of controversial Rabbi Eliezer Berland. Groups of men would gather and pray loudly at the monastery’s gates, but the problem stopped after two months of police at the site.
Bendcowsky paid tribute to the officers but said that more could still be done: “The police are open to working with the Church and helping the community, but they still need to be more literate about Christianity and Christians.”
