Erm, it seems to me that this statement is quite misleading. I believe the facts show that there has -never- been a murder of a Jew following a Passion play in the United States, and with a single exception in Germany in the 19th century, there hasn't been one in Europe since the Middle Ages either.

The Bavarian German city of Oberammergau stages an amatuer production of The Passion every four years or so. None of the actors are professionals and they spend the interim between seasons building the sets and costumes.

Though the play is the same, it is always a fresh performance with different actors in the roles. It draws crowds whenever it is performed. I used to have a fantastic picture book of performance from the early 80's. Don't know where it went...

Aren't there Passion Plays enacted all over Christendom every Passover, which always coincides with Easter? Isn't this just a graphic Stations of the Cross? Where are the Holy Week riots? Where are the Good Friday Pogroms?

I wish the Jews would understand, this is not targeted at them. It is targeted at the secular, liberal, communist amoral scum, and the low-life 8th century, dirty nightshirt wearing muslim jihadis that are trying to destroy western civilization. It says, we're here, we're united, and we stand with our Lord, through our Lord, against evil, even unto death.

Somewhere tonight, the devil is deeply saddened.
