Uh, I provided links for that precise purpose. Frankly, if someone a)
doesn't know who Israel Shahak is, b) cannot click on the citations, and c)
remarks of my anti-Semeticism, my only regret is that I didn't quote
verbatim from the rabbis themselves.
Do you mind terribly, Mark, if I change that detail when I retail the story
