Israel’s Ultra-Orthodox Jewish Hardliners Spit On 8 Year Old Girl, Label Her “Whore” (Video)
8 year old Naama Margolese wears long sleeves and a skirt. But while walking to school through an ultra-orthodox settlement in Israel the religious Jewish girl has been been called a ‘whore’ and spat on. Naama is deemed not religious enough by zealots in Beit Shemesh, about 11 miles west of Jerusalam and has become a symbol in Israel for the growing abuse of women and young girls by Jewish extremists.
Ultra-Orthodox Jews are Isreal’s fastest growing sector. Although, in the past they had confined their lifestyle strictly to their own neighborhoods, they are becoming increasingly aggressive; even campaigning against a sign for a women’s clinic, saying the use of the word ‘women’ in public was ‘immodest’. An Israeli cabinet minister described the men responsible as ‘criminals and psychopaths’.
