I hesitated to even share this, because any criticism of Israel automatically gets one branded as anti-semitic, but the ADL is the one doing the criticizing here, so go right ahead and call THEM anti-semitic. "Goyim [non-Jews] were born only to serve us. Without that, they have no place in the world – only to serve the People of Israel. Why are gentiles needed? They will work, they will plow, they will reap. We will sit like an effendi and eat. "With gentiles, it will be like any person - they need to die, but [God] will give them longevity. Why? Imagine that one’s donkey would die, they’d lose their money. This is his servant... That’s why he gets a long life, to work well for this Jew.” Source: haaretz/jewish-world/adl-slams-shas-spiritual-leader-for-saying-non-jews-were-born-to-serve-jews-1.320235?localLinksEnabled=false This is a quote from about 3 years ago, from a highly prominent jewish rabbi, giving a sermon during his worship service. From wikipedia: Ovadia Yosef, (Arabic, Abdullah Youssef[1]) (Hebrew: עובדיה יוסף) (born September 23, 1920) is the former Sephardi Chief Rabbi of Israel,[2] a recognised Talmudic scholar and foremost halakhic authority. He currently serves as the spiritual leader of the Shas political party in the Israeli parliament. His halakhic responsa are highly regarded within Orthodox circles and are considered binding in many Mizrahi communities, among whom he is regarded as "the most important living halachic authority."[3]
