Sounds like an anti Semitic principal here.....oh wait its OK for libs to be anti Semitic....
Hmm... Bernard Kaplan, the anti-Semite. Sounds unlikely, but is probably true. I suspect Bernie is a Reform Jew, which would explain his response to the Orthodox rabbi. If this had been some other synagogue more in line with his secular/leftist beliefs, he wouldn't have bothered to notify the parents.
BTW, it looks like Kaplan backed off, after the ADL's local attorneys spoke with him.
