NBC continues to face criticism for a series of incidents that have been labeled "anti-Semitic," with a scene from the show "Nurses" taking heat for a scene that has been widely condemned for the way it portrayed a Hasidic patient who refused a bone graft from a "goyim," an Arab or a woman.
The resurfaced clip comes as NBCUniversal was already facing criticism for a joke made on "Saturday Night Live" this week as well as a segment on MSNBC earlier this month involving Mehdi Hassan.
The American Jewish Committee’s (AJC) head of young leadership Seffi Kogen tweeted a clip of the show that aired earlier this month and wrote: "I think this is the most antisemitic thing I have ever seen in a TV show."
The scene featured a Hasidic Jewish patient who needed a bone graft from a deceased donor who overcomes a significant injury when his father chimed in, "A goyim leg. From anyone. An Arab, a woman?" Goyim is the Yiddish word for gentiles.
Kogen explained why he objected to the clip in a follow-up tweet.
"For those of you unfamiliar with Jewish law, which puts precedent on healing and saving lives, there is no prohibition on the kind of bone graft in this clip. The writers made it up, dressed their actors in Jew-face, and put random extremist nonsense in their mouths," Kogen wrote.

The left hates everyone, they just pretend to like certain people to keep them voting communist.
Stolen from the HBO show “Oz” where a White Supremacist got a gum graft donated by an African American (given by an Indian dentist) and got kicked out of and ultimately killed by the Aryan Brotherhood prison gang.
No FR thread is ever really complete without a Blazing Saddles reference.
Good question. It depends whom you ask. To an orthodox Jew, any son of a non-Jewish woman, other than one who was converted in an orthodox process, is not Jewish. To a Reform Jew, where assimilation was in some sense the whole point, anyone who says he’s Jewish and comes to the Temple is welcome.
If anything it would be the other way around.
The show pretty much declared the entire nation of Israel to be racist.
“evangelical Christians”
No, they wear Israeli kneepads 24/7.
Morgan Freeman said that? The same Morgan Freeman who said all of us in the Tea Party were racists? hm
yes i do not know if it was before or after tea party comments, though the press was misinforming everyone about the teaparty too.
The problem is that it is not a true wart.
