Dear Sirs,

I just received letter requesting financial assistance for your fund. I am presently very concerned about the situation in Arad. From all accounts, the Haredim are using Nazi style harassment against Jews and Israeli citizens. I understand that even honest Torah scholars are being used in this aggression against Jews whose “crime” is believing that Yshua is the Messiah. Does not His summary of the Law in Luke 10:27 “Thou shalt love the Lord thy G-d with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbor as thyself.” agree with Moses’ summary of the Law in Leviticus 19:18 and Deuteronomy 10:12 and the prophet Micah’s summary of the Law in Micah 6:8? How then, are the Haredim keeping the Law? Does not Israeli law prohibit this sort of terrorist behavior? Does no one care that Jews are treating fellow Jews worse than terrorists treat Jews?

At this time I am not inclined to send any financial aid to groups in Israel who are not publicly objecting to the increasingly violent harassment going on in Arad.

Cordially yours,

Paula Wilson
