Smith's Anti-Semites Use Neturei Karta Material
WASHINGTON (JTA)—The
Gerald L. K. Smith anti-semitic
organization is making national
distribution of a statement by
the so-called "National Com-
mittee for Religious Freedom
in Israel" which denounces the
Israel Government. The "re-
ligious freedom" group is made
up of Orthodox extremists in-
cluding members of the Neturei
Karta.
Smith's anti-Semitic front
"The Christian Nationalist Cru-
sade" has reprinted verbatim
the text of a paid advertise-
ment inserted recently in the
New York Times by the Jewish
extremists. Smith has sent this
text to members of Congress,
clergymen, and others. The
advertisement contained a
sweeping denunciation of the
Israel Government for permit-
ting a Jerusalem swimming
pool, alleged desecration of
Holy Places and graves, impris-
onment of rabbis, and other
alleged anti-religious acts.
The comment of Smith on
the denunciation of Israel by
Jews was that "occasionally
the cat jumps out of the bag."
The attack on Israel was
quoted with a comment that it
would prove "quite revealing"
to non-Jews. Smith was charged
with pro-Nazi sedition during
World War II.
