Jews Hanging Effigy of Child, and Holding GUNS in Synagogue. OMG!!

Ever since October 6th, Hamas sympathizers have been flooding the Internet with thinly veiled cheap propaganda. They’ll take photos, or short video clips, from the Gaza conflict, and attach their own narrative to them. Often, they’ll intentionally edit the clip to deceive the viewer. I’ve seen them remove the audio – because the audio would have negated their narrative. They’re prolific and shameless…

… and now neo-Nazis have jumped on the bandwagon, as I alluded to in my previous post. The common thread? Both parties are anti-Jewish. They’re probably communicating with each other. Neo-Nazis and Islamic terrorists… we’ve seen it before.

Here’s a doozie I just found on X:

People who are actually interested in the truth will ASK involved parties for an explanation. Find an observant Jew, show him the video and ask what’s going on. Alas, it’s easier to just post the video on X, and accuse the Jews of pedophilia and God knows what else.

What the video actually shows is an innocent, and fun, Jewish tradition involving the annual reading of the Megillah (the Book of Esther) during Purim. Whenever the name of Haman is mentioned, congregants will make noises (yes, even with toy guns) and make a ruckus. In this case, an effigy of Haman was hung. After all, that’s what happened to the real Haman. Read the Book of Esther.

I see tweets like the above, and I ask myself, “What kind of sick person would assume that an effigy of Haman is actually a representation of a child, and that it’s connected with pedophilia?”

I’ve never claimed that religious Jews are perfect and above reproach, but I’ve attended many a synagogue in my time, and the notion that anything even remotely promoting pedophilia would take place in an Orthodox synagogue is absurd. Waving real guns in synagogue? Absolutely ridiculous, unless it’s for defense in the event of an attack.

Years ago, I wrote about the ritual sucking of the wound during circumcision. We can debate the merits of circumcision and the sucking all day long – but those who assume it has anything to do with pedophilia are way off base.

Are there pedophiles among Orthodox Jews? Of course there are, just at we find them among Christians, Hindus, Buddhists and, of course, Muslims – but, ancient texts notwithstanding, pedophilia is not promoted among religious Jews.

Stop trying so hard to find it where it doesn’t exist.

    These people are total hypocrites. TOTALLY. All I have to do is type in “Christian Pastor pedo’s” and 8 trillion pages come up.

    They just LOVE ‘getting the Jew’.

    Stew Peters is a dumbass.
