NETUREI KARTA MAMZERIM PLACED IN CHEREM - URGENT MEDIA STATEMENT FROM UNITED ORTHODOX COMMUNITIES OF NEW YORK RE: NETUREI KARTA

URGENT MEDIA STATEMENT FROM UNITED ORTHODOX COMMUNITIES OF NEW YORK RE: NETUREI KARTA


Further to our public announcement dated 21 April 2002 [9th Iyar 5762], we hereby reiterate and declare that Charedi/Chassidic/Orthodox Jews everywhere absolutely reject the treacherous and contemptible conduct of that insignificant and irrelevant group of misfits and Mechalelei Hashem desecraters of G-d’s Name], who have again raised their ugly heads and besmirched and blackened the reputations of observant Jews worldwide.


Their joining in vigils and ‘prayers’ for the arch-terrorist Yasser Arafat [may his name be blotted out] with Jew-haters of all manner, is an outrage that we cannot ignore and will not forgive. We again demand that rabbis and community leaders of all communities ensure that members of this group are refused entry to all houses of prayer. 


These nefarious associates of Jewry’s enemies have unfortunately again succeeded in their crazed hunger for publicity and are being depicted in local and international media-outfitted in their religious attire-bewailing the impending demise of a mass-murderer-side-by side with Palestinian Jew-haters. The shame and embarrassment to decent religious Jews worldwide is unbearable. 


We repeat: this contemptible and minuscule gang of traitors to Judaism, were decades ago barred from our Synagogues and communities. Their refusal to abide by the pronouncements of religious and lay leaders of our communities has made them persona non grata. 


Under no circumstances should the media insinuate that ANY of their actions are associated with the Charedi or Chassidic community


We urgently request all media outlets to highlight this fact in any report on this group’s actions and to clearly state that the Neturei Karta and their advocates have been excommunicated by virtually the entire spectrum of Jewry.


THE UNITED ORTHODOX COMMUNITIES OF NEW YORK IS A COALITION OF MAJOR ORTHODOX JEWISH CONGREGATIONS IN BROOKLYN, NYC, UPSTATE NEW YORK and NEW JERSEY
