Let's go way back to Mares eat oats and does eat oats and little lambs eat ivy. (1936)

We had some pretty stupid ones way back then.

Shahak, who came to Israel in 1945 after surviving the concentration
camp in Belsen during the Holocaust, contends that the potential for
Israel's right-wing Jewish religious movements to seize power represents a
threat to the peace of Israel and to the Zionist movement. He posits that
Israel as a Jewish state constitutes a danger not only to itself and its
inhabitants, but to all Jews and to all other people and states in the Middle
East. Shahak, who was raised as an Orthodox Jew, condemns what he
sees as discrimination against non-Jewish citizens of Israel. The real test
facing both Israeli and diaspora Jews is the test of their self-criticism,
which must include the critique of the Jewish past. Most disturbing,
Shahak insists that the religion, in its classical and talmudic form, is
"poisoning minds and hearts."
This controversial attack of Israel by a Jew
is bound to alarm Jewry worldwide. George Cohen

A guide to understanding Israel.


In his most illuminating and disturbing book Professor Shahak takes the
lid off previously hidden Orthodox Jewish beliefs and practices. He
explains how these beliefs are at the heart of the Zionist adventure and
constitute a major influence upon Israeli government policies and actions.
We are made aware of the paradox of a largely secular state basing its
raison d'etre and future direction upon biblical text. The depth of
Orthodox Jewish antipathy toward the gentile, and especially toward
Christianity (and Jesus) will come as an unsettling surprise to the many
millions of American evangelical Christians who uncritically accept a
fawning admiration of all things Israeli repeatedly displayed by the TV
evangelists. Frightening, too, is the near-total control of most Jewish
organizations now in the hands of Zionists; it is now almost impossible for
a Jew to openly disassociate him or herself from, let alone be critical of,
the state of Israel or the aims of Zionism. Whereas the critical gentile must
be an 'anti-Semite' so must the critical Jew be 'self-hating'. Whatever your
point of view on the situation in Israel, whatever your religion or
philosophical perspective, however deeply you hold your convictions, you
cannot fail to be challenged by this marvelous book.
