Danger posed by anti-Semitism 'is real and tangible,' Warren tells Newton congregation

Source: Boston Globe

By Laura Crimaldi

NEWTON — A week ago, Shabbat services concluded with horror as news of the massacre that killed 11 Jews at a Pittsburgh synagogue infiltrated the sanctified walls of Temple Emanuel in Newton.

On Saturday, services drew to a close in song as about 1,200 worshipers, including US Senator Elizabeth Warren, sang “America the Beautiful” in a show of solidarity and resilience.

Senior Rabbi Michelle Robinson pleaded for unity, saying the gunman at Tree of Life Congregation in Pittsburgh’s Squirrel Hill neighborhood didn’t care whether his victims were Republicans or Democrats.

“Isn’t there enough hatred in this world? There is already too much darkness. Let us here today bring light,” Robinson said. “There is already too much division. Let us come together, not because we agree but because we can love each other even though we don’t always agree. The world needs us now.”

I've said many times before, the Jews are the least threatening people you could ever live around. So whats the hatred based on? And denying the holocaust; ok so you say 6 million werent killed? Then how many? FIVE million? FOUR? What number is ok? Ridiculous.
