Christians in Jerusalem want Jews to stop spitting on them

By Amiram Barkat

A few weeks ago, a senior Greek Orthodox clergyman in Israel attended a meeting at a government office in Jerusalem's Givat Shaul quarter. When he returned to his car, an elderly man wearing a skullcap came and knocked on the window. When the clergyman let the window down, the passerby spat in his face.

The clergyman preferred not to lodge a complaint with the police and told an acquaintance that he was used to being spat at by Jews. Many Jerusalem clergy have been subjected to abuse of this kind.

Ted, > Why isn't that enough? A serious question.

For starters, I would like to advocate clean air and energy efficiency by pushing for more nuclear energy.

Of course when it comes to the liberal version of environmentalism, it's "You are either with us or you are against us."


I can handle nuclear. I don't think its so much a conservative/liberal issue. People are afraid of meltdowns.The nuclear reactor between you and San Diego always bothered me. If it went, there are potentially millions who would be effected. Do you ever see the mutations after Chernobyl?

Well, if there are options, I'd rather pick the one without the potential to kill thousands of people.

But that's just me.

(NOTE: I'm not really against nuclear energy)
