Following the jihadist attack on a kippa [Jewish skull-cap] wearing Jewish teacher in Marseille, the president of the city's Jewish community, Zvi Ammar, advised French Jews to leave their kippas at home. In my view, it is time for the Israeli Foreign Office to assist French Jews in leaving France before it is too late.
Following his recommendation for Jews to take off their kippas, "until better days," Mr. Ammar was fiercely criticized. As reported in the European Jewish Press. France's Chief Rabbi, Haim Korsia, said that Jews should continue wearing their kippas in public in order to form a "united front." "We will not cede!" he stated. "We will continue to wear the kippa."
Similarly, Joel Mergui, president of France's Consistory, an umbrella organization that administers to Jewish congregations, stated, "Don't touch my kippa! He [Ammar] knows as well as I do that wearing a kippa or not won't resolve the issue of terrorism." And finally, Roger Cukierman, president of the Representative Council of Jewish Institutions of France (CRIF), agreed with Mergui, stating, "It translates to a defeatist attitude, to giving up."

Quote:Israeli Foreign Ministry officials have expressed surprise at the United Methodist Church’s (UMC) decision to divest from five Israeli banks on the grounds of human rights concerns.
Bank Hapoalim, Bank Leumi, First International Bank of Israel, Israel Discount Bank and Bank Mizrahi-Tefahot are among 39 companies blacklisted by the UMC pension fund for failing to meet the guidelines of a human rights investment policy. An Israeli construction company, Shikun & Binui, was also excluded, for its involvement in settlement building.
According to Haaretz newspaper, the US decision is being taken seriously and is causing concern within the Foreign Ministry. It is being considered one of the most dangerous decisions made by a US institution to date regarding the imposition of sanctions on Israeli companies due to their activities in the West Bank.
The newspaper quoted officials in the Israeli Foreign Ministry saying that they are still studying the decision and its consequences. They also said that they will try to make contact with the head of the church in an attempt to push for a withdrawal of the decision or at least reduce its impact.
The UMC is one of the largest Protestant denominations in the United States, with an estimated seven million members.

"Take off your kippa"
This is ridiculous, it's the religious equivalent of telling a woman she's responsible for preventing herself from getting raped by wearing a bodysuit every time she walks out her home. It's nuts how people can turn from things like this, glad he got criticized so harshly!
