JERUSALEM -- Sasha Boojor squirmed and struggled as black-clad masked men yanked him out of a cage and branded him with a hot iron. While the smell of seared flesh was disturbing, he said, this shocking and painful act was worth it: He was showing solidarity with animals that suffer branding on farms around the world.

Decorative branding....if you have to ask about
the pain, you’re not ready.

Hey maybe he’d like an ear tag and castration too?

In case the typical Israeli has missed it in the papers,his/her country is surrounded by 500 million people who want their country to disappear from the face of the earth.Perhaps the most dangerous of the countries in question is on the verge of developing a nuke.

What's Hebrew for "priorities"?

The nuts’ name should be changed to “Sasha Boo-Boo” as in ‘Sasha got a self inflicted Boo-Boo’. Might get himself a TV show, in Gaza.

Bend over stupid, we’ll give you a branding where the sun don’t shine since you don’t have a clue about life. The “brand” will say “AHole” with arrows pointing in all directions.

Excellent example of the decadence prevalent in Western cultures. Well fed, materially privlidged people who have never known real hunger or deprivation develop bizarre ideation and habits.

Certain to be ignored as crazy people.

The animals need advocates with at least some brains.

He could complete the cycle and make himself available to cannibals.

But it wouldn’t be kosher.
