Ethiopian Jews are pro-Israel!

Nonny:
Sounds like Britam's Davidy would get on great with Chaim!

The Torah is not racist.

But it is racialist!

--- Quote ---Dude, Karaites CANNOT be included in a minyan. The fear is worse than including Reform Jews in a minyan. Why? Because at least many Reform Jews keep some Rabbinic traditions, and others, they can be honest about where they came from. But Karaite Jews follow patrilinial descent, which creates the fear that many are, in fact, goyim.

Actually the Chief Rabbis in Israel ruled that Karaites are Jews. They might not following all the same traditions as regular Jews...but they are still Jews. As to following Patrilineal descent...they do so because in the Written Torah, this is how descent was counted...from the Father, not the mother. (Note: I did not say Tanach...but in the five books of Moshe...which karaites hold as the Only Torah...this is where descent came from...the dads...not the moms.)

I have been visiting the www.britam.org  for several months now. What i have found on the website is somewhat disturbing bordering on racism. For instance Mr Davidy refuses to condemn the brutal oppressive Apartheid regime that existed in South Africa, he also REFUSES condemn the European enslavement of Africans. To add to this he claims that the original children of Israel were mainly Nordic in appearance.To sum up Britam it is an elitist organisation that borders on white supremacy- the Torah teaches against racism AVOID BRITAM

Segregation, slavery and apartheid were all valid and acceptable ways of escaping racist brutality at the hands of evil [censored].
