Hasidic Jewish Group Neturei Karta Has Friendly Meet ‘n’ Greet With Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
Hasidic Jewish group Neturei Karta and Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad had a friendly, 40-minute sit-down meeting this past week in a New York hotel. Ahmadinejad reportedly received his guests warmly, as the latter presented him with a silver award and described the Holocaust-denier as “exemplary” in his criticism of Zionism and his warmth for the Jewish people.
And boy did they have lots to talk about!! Well, actually, they only had one thing to talk about — their common hatred of Israel – but they both feel very strongly about it.
Neturei Karta opposes Zionism and calls for the dismantling of the State of Israel, in the belief that Jews are forbidden to have their own state until the coming of the Messiah. Or something. And Mahmoud is a notorious Holocaust denier who wants Israel “annihilated” and thinks Jews are all criminals.
So… two peas in a pod? We guess? We don’t even know. This is just weird.

"This is just weird" Yes, quite, very.
However be it noted that conservatives of any stripe have their "weird ways." Just look at this year's U.S. election

Don't be so snarky. "Or something." I think Neturei Karta are a bunch of publicity-seeking nuts, but they are sincere in their interpretation of what they believe God commands. They take the eventual coming of the Messiah as seriously as you take anything that you believe in with all your heart, so don't just dismiss them because they seem weird to you. They are marginal in Israel and outside and get far more publicity than their numbers or influence merit, but don't be snide about something you can't possibly understand.

Hitler also sincerely believed that he was helping the world by eliminating inferior ethnicities. Since when did sincerity mean "not evil?"

Or, if you're offended by the comparison, the Westboro Baptist Church, however, is a perfect comparison. 100% evil, and 100% convinced that what they're doing is "helping the world."

Very good blog! Do you have any tips for aspiring writers?
I'm planning to start my own blog soon but I'm a
little lost on everything. Would you suggest starting with a
free platform like WordPress or go for a paid option?
There are so many choices out there that I'm completely confused .. Any tips? Many thanks!

Hi this is somewhat of off topic but I was wondering if blogs use WYSIWYG editors
or if you have to manually code with HTML. I'm starting a blog soon but have no coding expertise so I wanted to get guidance from someone with experience. Any help would be enormously appreciated!
