How Intellectual Thugs Murder Academic Discourse

How RUDE of the Jewish Times to publish this!

This is a pedestrian diatribe- sadly in need of editing- that says nothing new.

  How about a book entitled “Genocidal Judaism”: about how, according to the Torah (specifically, Deut) the Israelites fleeing Egypt were commanded to exterminate the 7 indigeneous nations living in Canaan?

  Clearly SPME hack and right-winger Dr. Cravatts has his shiny brown proboscis deeply embedded in Mort Klein’s posterior.

How about the Orthodox intellectual thugs who will not allow non-Orthodox religious Jewish women from praying in non-segregated spaces at the kotel- and even physically harass them?  Maybe Dr. Cravatts should write a book about them as well.
  btw, the Hebrew equivalent term for Jihad (fi sabil Allah) - “struggle” (in the path of G-d)- is
“Israel”, according to the most widely accepted understanding of the Bible’s (folk) etymology of that term.  In other words, the Israelites- benay Israel- were the original Mujahidin!
