A clandestine undertaking on behalf of Israel, the Jets and the Jews.

 
Jewish Racism

This week's Jewish Week reports that three Orthodox converts were asked not to attend services at an Orthodox shul because they are black. Apparently, the shul - which is apparently in bad shape and lacks air conditioning - was to hold summer services at another congregation, “with the strict stipulation that no Jews of color attend.” The rabbi of the other shul, Yehuda Levin, has become infamous with such moronic stances as his staunch support for Pat Buchanan.

Given that this is coming from The Jewish Week, there may be reason to be skeptical about the veracity of this article. If it's true, however, then the conduct of the rabbis involved is a disgrace, and they should face responsibility.

Incidentally, in shul this morning, an Ethiopian Jew sat next to me at morning services, and asked for help with the services. The congregants were very welcoming to him.
