Absent morality

Gideon Levy, Haaretz, October 16:

"A skullcap is not a guarantee of any moral superiority. It is enough to take a look at the least ethical community in Israeli society, the settlers, most of whom, despite their behaviour and the extremist groups among them, wear a skullcap. There is no other group in Israeli society that tramples justice more. The fact that the leaders of the religious community almost never speak out on issues that are not religious or nationalist is serious cause for concern. Equality and human rights are not considered a value, and most of these leaders actually incite toward violating these rights. It has been a long time since a rabbi here spoke out about morality."

I assume you are referring to the Pope's skullcap, what ever it is for. Because he is bald? Has a cold head?

They are, and they've stated your morality is about the same as Saddams.

You don't know how open it is in Israel because an Australian paper hasn't informed you? Pretty stupid, don't you think? Or do you think at all? I'm beginning to wonder.
