Ultra-Orthodox Jews attack
Christian tourists in Jerusalem
By Jonathan Lis, Haaretz Correspondent
A group of 50 pro-Israel Christian
tourists came under attack Wednesday
from some 100 residents of the
ultra-Orthodox neighborhood of
Mea She'arim in Jerusalem.
Three of the tourists and a
police officer were wounded
in the attack.
They received treatment at the scene.
The tourists arrived at Mea She'arim
wearing orange T-shirts with the words
"Love your neighbor as yourself"
printed across them.
As they neared one of the squares,
the local residents apparently
identified them as Christians
and began to hit them.
Police forces in the area
stepped in to stop the violence,
but did not make any arrests.
Police say they are waiting for
the tourists to file official
complaints.

They probably thought the Christian tourists were trying to give them a
lesson on how to treat Palestinians. See below

SAVE A JEW, SAVE YOURSELF! Sixty-five million Evangelicals can't
be all wrong. By Mark Ames
IF YOU'RE A JEW, put the paper down now, run to your door and lock it.
If some beaming Ned Flanders type with a big helpful smile on his face rings
your doorbell and says, "Is there a Jew in this house I can hug?" advise him
to vacate the premises immediately, or you will sic upon him Baal, your
starving Pit Bull.
Whatever you do, do not invite the Christian Zionist into your house.
Because as much as he claims to love you and all of your fellow tribesmen,
it's a different kind of love than you might expect. More like the love that
the Manson Family had for Sharon Tate and her party guests.
Ned and about 65 million other fellow American Evangelical cultists love
Jews for one simple reason: They hope to bundle every [Jew] up, air-freight
them to the West Bank and East Jerusalem (once those areas have been
cleansed of Muslims), and use the Jews as bait to bring about the Rapture,
as kindling in the Apocalypse, the final battle that will bring Jesus back
to Earth.
None of this can happen until every last Jew is penned into the occupied
territories ..and the Jews won't get there unless the far-right runs Israel
and America. Currently 65 million American cultists are using everything in
their power, from prayer to politics, to make this Helter-Skelter scenario
come true.
Under this Evangelical "end of days" scenario, there's some good news
and some bad news, depending on which cult you belong to.
First, the good news: The Rapture be bery-bery-good to Evangelical
Christians. When that day arrives, they all get sucked up to heaven -body,
clothes, mobile phones and all. Here is a stunning description of the
Rapture in Evangelical cult leader Michael D. Evans' new bestseller, The
American Prophecies (Warner Faith Books, $18.95):
[Quote: Imagine for a moment sixty-five million Americans vanishing in
the twinkling of an eye, ..people flying planes, driving cars, steering
ships, driving trains and subways, manning nuclear power stations and
nuclear silos, navigating submarines filled with nuclear missiles, and so
on. Realize, also, if that happened today, it would take our president.]

While not agreeing with the Ultra Orthodox, I am curious,
Why were there 50 christians with orange Tshirts marching
through their neighborhood.
If the Christian Tourist were handing out
'come to Jesus leaflets' religious tracts of any kind,
they should not have been surprised by their welcome.
Christians that try to convert others to their religion,
are playing a dangerous game.

That's a good point. There seems to be something missing in the article.
