I got no problem with Israel criticism. But if you paint a Magen David on the face of an effigy and then burn it and shoot it in... Europe... eh... 😬

"The incident drew outcry from the microstate’s tiny #Jewish community, which only just got its first full-time #rabbi, a #Chabad emissary, in the last two years.

“This is a ritual they perform every year as part of #carnival, where they mock many things,” Jewish #Andorra resident #EstherPujol told #YNet. “This time they dressed the effigy in the colors of the #Israeli flag, with a #StarofDavid on its face. They put it on trial, sentenced it to death and carried out the sentence by shooting and burning it. It is completely unacceptable.”

Pujol told the outlet that it was the first time she had seen the festival include anti-Israel or #antisemitic elements, and that she had contacted Andorran lawmakers to express her outrage."

“It is completely unacceptable,” said one Jewish resident of Andorra.

@dukepaaron Ah, no doubt cousin to the matar judíos aka kill the Jew tradition elsewhere in Spain!
@littlemiao imagine doing that to any other small group.
@dukepaaron Huh they really are sticking to their traditions there 👀 wtf “But local Jews have also sought to remain under the radar, considering that Andorra officially prohibits non-Catholic houses of worship.”
@littlemiao yeah ive posted a couple of articles here and there about Chabad's arrival. Very on brand.

@dukepaaron Chabad shluchim are truly brave

Imagine prohibiting non-Catholic places of worship. Do they still have the Inquisition too?!

@littlemiao @dukepaaron Wait, whut?

This is okay in the 21st Century?

@tjcasser @littlemiao @dukepaaron We’ve reverted to the 19th century here at home; why shouldn’t Europe go back to the 15th? 🤦🏼

@dukepaaron

Disgusting, Andorra. First specifics I learn about the country, and it's something antisemitic. (European goy here.)

@dukepaaron So, what I take from this is that you can joke and burn about everything in the world except Jewish symbols?

And now I'm probably an anti-Semite because I wrote that, right?

Yeah, no. If everything is allowed then EVERYTHING is allowed.

@dukepaaron What the actual fuck.
