Philadelphia Inquirer ^ | 04/29/2015 | Paul Nussbaum

Rabbi Linda Holtzman, who has made a career of liberal activism, ventured into new territory when she scampered across Broad Street in North Philadelphia to slap a black-and-yellow sticker on the back of Adolf Hitler's head.

Hitler is featured in an anti-Islam ad displayed on SEPTA buses this month, and Holtzman and other Jewish activists have launched a campaign of guerrilla protest.

They are pasting stickers that are a parody of SEPTA's own "Dude, It's Rude" pro-civility ad campaign onto the anti-Islam ads: "Dude It's Rude . . . Hate Speech - Really?"

There are rabbis who believe in God and then there are rabbis who think they know better. However well-motivated this can be, the Bible teaches against “everyone doing what he thinks is right in his own eyes.” This lady should pray and read her Bible for better guidance.

This lady is no rabbi. According to Jewish law, only men can be rabbis. So if she’s guilty of hand-waving over points of Jewish law, I don’t think I’d believe anything she said.
