According to Gopstein, Christians are “vampires and blood suckers” that must be expelled from Israel, the U.S.’ closest ally. “Let us remove the vampires before they once again drink our blood,” he wrote in a recent article on an ultra-Orthodox website.

Gopstein, a religious extremist also known as “Benzi,” calls “the Christian Church” Jews’ “deadly enemy for hundreds of years,” which has used “the maximum tools at its disposal to destroy the Jewish people.”

He laments that the “disgust” for Christianity “has disappeared with the ‘good life’ of the democratic age.”

Leading Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported on Gopstein’s remarks. It also noted that the Israel Movement for Reform and Progressive Judaism and the Coalition Against Racism have asked the government to investigate.

    Religious fundamentalists come in all colors. Their currency is self-covetous and fear of ‘others’. Their anti-venom is education.

      …but they all have one common denominator – right wing conservatives

    I guess we all owe Bill O a collective apology about his claims about a War on Christmas.

    A nice way to show conservatives how their own poison works…

    Will Zionist Christians still think highly of Israel after this?

    Proving once again what we already knew: Extremists are the same all over the world, no matter what their faith or denomination.

    He better figure out who his American allies are first.

    Just another far right wing conservative religious zealot..
    This one happens to live in the Jewish State of Israel.
    No shocker here, except that it’s making the social media rounds.

    Remember this gem from Ted Cruz?

    http://time.com/3328063/ted-cruz-booed-israel-christian-middle-east/

    “If you will not stand with Israel and Jews, then I will not stand with you,” Cruz said.

    I wonder what Cruz would make of anti-Christian Jewish fanatics. I’m sure his small mind would fail to comprehend it.

      Congress has defunded aid to third world nations if they support abortion. Yet Israel has the most liberal laws on abortion in the world. They are Planned Parenthood on Steroids. Why is this hypocricy brushed under the rug?

    Christian tourists support a lot of Jewish jobs, taxes from which support your shul, you putz.

    I actually have mixed feelings about this. Expel Israeli Christians, or even European/American non Jewish tourists? Definitely not! Bad idea, discriminatory and stupid. Keep out American evangelicals who are only there to proselytize and try and mold Israel into laying the groundwork for the Apocalypse? That gives me second thoughts, since those folks do not have the best interests of Jews of Israelis in mind, despite their rhetoric, and I personally don’t think they can be trusted.

    Like I said, mixed feelings. the idea sounds horrible but the latter folk are working their own agenda, which is not in the best interests of Israel.
