"This secular state which claims to represent the Jewish Faith has made clear its real agenda in their acts of aggression, discrimination and brutality against Orthodox Jews wishing to practice their beliefs in the Torah and scriptures."</font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">The latest in the series of events is their arrest of five scholars and holding them without bail, solely for the sin of participating in a rally protesting the removal by the municipal government of Bais Shemesh of a poster calling women to wear modest clothing when entering the religious quarter of Bais Shemesh. The five are being treated brutally in prison by the police. One of them, Rabbi Moshe Leib Friedman, was beaten over the head by Officer Uri Algazy, who yelled at him, &quot;You want to see how I hit a Jew!&quot;</font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">In another case, a rabbi was arrested without being shown any charges against him, or the name of the person bringing charges. The Internal Security Minister, Avi Dichter, issued an &quot;immunity document&quot; calling for all evidence to stay sealed. Such a document is normally issued only in cases of national security. </font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">These are only examples of the day-after-day behavior of the Israeli authorities against religious Jews in the State of Israel. The Israelis' goal is to enforce secularism and make sure that religious Jewish communities establish no foothold. </font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">About three thousand protesters are expected at this demonstration.&nbsp; </font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">For additional information on the position of Torah-True Jews, visit <a href="http://www.jewsagainstzionism.com/">www.jewsagainstzionism.com</a>.</font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><strong>About True Torah Jews:</strong></font></p> <p><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif">True Torah Jews against Zionism is an organization of religious Jews faithful to the teachings of Torah and opposed to Zionism.</font></p></td> </tr> </table> </div></td> </tr> </table> <p><span style='"Times New Roman"'><br /> <br /> </p> </div> </body> </html>
