Vatican teaching Hezbollah how to kill Jews, says pamphlet for IDF troops


The Pope and the cardinals of the Vatican help organize tours of Auschwitz for Hezbollah members to teach them how to wipe out Jews, according to a booklet being distributed to Israel Defense Forces soldiers.

Officials encouraging the booklet's distribution include senior officers, such as Lt. Col. Tamir Shalom, the commander of the Nahshon Battalion of the Kfir Brigade.

The booklet was published by the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America, in cooperation with the chief rabbi of Safed, Rabbi Shmuel Eliahu, and has been distributed for the past few months.

The booklet, titled "On Either Side of the Border," purports to be the testimony of "a Hezbollah officer who spied for Israel."

"The book is distributed regularly and everyone reads it and believes it," said one soldier. "It's filled with made-up details but is presented as a true story. A whole company of soldiers, adults, told me: 'Read this and you'll understand who the Arabs are.'"

3. The IDF Spokesman's Office said in a statement:
Edited on Sun Jul-19-09 02:25 PM by varelse
"The book was received as a donation and distributed in good faith to the soldiers. After we were alerted to the sensitivity of its content, distribution was immediately halted."


Maybe the IDF needs to institute a policy of actually reviewing what they distribute to their soldiers. Wow.

David Menahemov, an aide to Eliahu, claims the book is not fiction. "Avi is a real person and everything in the book is absolutely true," insists Menahemov. "It's a totally true story, I know the guy personaly. He's an Arab, who even though he converted still acts like an Arab. We helped him to write and to translate it. We changed a few details to protect him and his family."


:crazy:

8. "Acting like an Arab" is that something like
"walking like an Egyptian"?

I do not know which is more disturbing the idea that IDF just never looked at this pamphlet otr that they did and let it go until a public fuss was made

5. With the help of the Freemasons and the Illuminati?
Not that there isn't plenty of antisemitism in the current Vatican; but advising *Hezbollah* - give me a break.

I suppose there are nutty CTs everywhere.

7. Re
Its a good job that the group involved was a marginal fringe organisation like the Union of Orthodox Jewish Congregations of America. You'd hate to see this kind of tinfoil stuff being peddled by a mainstream group.
