Pinging in two Jewish freepers who I know are believing Jews and I know will oppose the feelings expressed in this letter.

SJackson, PP, I'm pinging you just so that you would know about this as it may come up in other contexts

To Judgem --> these people definitely do NOT represent all Jews worldwide. however they claim to and officially do, represent the small Jewish community in Warsaw

To me, this is appalling in three ways

1. This is supporting the pro-death people -
2. This was something they could have shut up about - it's not a religious issue affecting them directly
3. Even if many Jews disavow these remarks, this is going to provide ammunition for anti-semites

---------------

He should be ashamed of putting the name of the "Jewish community of Warsaw" to his letter -- he is sullying the name

Though I vehemently disagree with their position..it’s murder...they are allowed their opinion.

And it seems like anti-Semitism must be alive and well there to be set off by this.

Perhaps the younger generation there is pro abortion also.

I’m guessing I know which group would be attacked first and be the only ones attacked for their position.

Same liberal crap, different county.

The legal position of Judaism is abortion is immoral, except for when the mother's life is in danger at which point it becomes a self defense issue.

When my wife was pregnant she told me in no uncertain terms that if she was unconscious and I had to make a choice between her life and the baby I was to choose the child.

The maternal equivalent of falling on a grenade.
