Tikkun Magazine and the Chickens



Quick - which of these two photos is of a rabbi and which is of a cartoon character? You are correct - they are BOTH cartoon characters and neither is a rabbi.

Eureka! I think I found a way to get through at last to the Tikkun crowd!

You know, those fossilized Tikkun 60s hippies who call one another "dude" and pretend that Mikey Lerner and Arthur Waskow are rabbis? The sorts of people who have never met an Islamist terrorist they do not like. After 911, Lerner demanded that we all feel bin Laden's pain. Lerner also has a long track record of claiming that anti-Semitism is all the fault of the Jews.

Well, it seems the Hamas rockets managed to traumatize a number of birds. Really. See the piece that follows. And while the Tikkun clowns could not care less if a million Israeli Jews are traumatized by the rockets, scaring some itty bitty birdies is just going too far!!! What about their human rights!

Even the Chickens are Traumatized by Rocket Fire

by Hana Levi Julian

The chickens near Kiryat Gat have been traumatized.

It might sound strange, but when one considers what it might be like to have a rocket slam into your house, at close quarters, it is perhaps not surprising that the chickens in southern Israel have had enough.
One of the rockets fired Sunday morning by Gaza terrorists hit a large chicken coop at a moshav near Kiryat Gat, killing at least 200 of the 160,000 birds.

Another 300 of the birds, however, were badly traumatized, and must be moved – not only because the coop was seriously damaged, but due to the stress they suffered from the attack.


Now we have long suspected that the commune of Tikkun readers is just about empty, the pot long since smoked, leaving no one in there but them chickens.

Anyone remember that old Superchicken cartoon show?
