mafia be indicted? Oh, heavens, too. How would they build their schools? Saints Peter and Paul Roman Catholic Church and school were built with Italian-American mafia don Joe Bonnano's money almost entirely. Was that honest money?

and only 5% gets to the burn hospitals and other Shriner charities. WHERE does the 95% go? Hmmm? Dr. John Ankerberg's research on the Masons and Shriners uncovered that in the booklet he wrote on the subject. People who run charities have to get paid. A 30% cost is adequate, but the American Cancer Society runs at 45 % if I remember correctly. But JEWS and anyone who helps them are CRIMINALS for much lesser crimes. How many Bernie Madoffs got off because they were NOT Jewish? Hmmm? My mother used to tell me not to run around looking for justice in the world because there is none.

obama's going after Jews to try to turn the american public against Israel. Don't believe anything that comes out of the obama government.

I often wondered how Americans can manage on Israeli wages and still manage to have a higher standard of living other than European Olim. Now I know why!

These Rabbis have added another log to the fire of anti-Semitism by their actions. It seems that certain sects have no regard for morality and Torah outside their closed enclaves both abroad and in Israel. They seem to think they can do anything as long as it brings in money to their sect in the same way the mafia behaves and thinks. All other Jews must come out in public against these actions in an attempt to reduce the impact on the whole Jewish population.

Who is it who said ... Jews are just like everyone else.... only more so

Rabbis involved in human organs trade & money laundering……bribing elected officials in New Jersey….who were involved in this too. First Madoff, now this. And we are supposed to be the “chosen people” ……”A light unto the nations”…….NOT !!! I suppose we Jews have a propensity to worship money more than our GOD………Then we blame the “goyim” for being anti-Semites…… If this happened in Israel, the Charedim would have gone on a rampage........how come they are not going wild in Brooklyn??? They are probably aware that the law would take "good" care of them.

you people were laughing at the saudis, now you people have been caught trafficking human organs and doing financial fraud where is your sense of humour now

No one is perfect, guys. They made a mistake and will pay for it. It's a shame and tragedy, and they SHOULD know better, but humans are human. We all have our vices and foibles. Pray for them.

(Rabbi, Prophet) and vomited Jonah out in the Bible book of that name, Jonah.

their Messiah and blamed that on the Jews. HOW were the Jews at fault? Governor Pontius Pilate was a Gentile. King Herod was an Edomite usurper of the Jewish throne. Caiaphas the High Priest was selected by the Romans in a political appointment of a Roman stooge. The JEWS hailed Yeshua saying Hosannah in the Highest as he entered Jerusalem on a colt. A FEW paid malefactors gave false testimony against him and said Crucify Him, Crucify Him when Pilate presented Yeshua to get Barabas released instead. It was the Roman soldiers who beat Yeshua and scorged him. Where were the Jews in that? He was their king they said as he rode into Jerusalem. Sadly, the Gentiles blame the Jews for their own crimes and shortcomings.

I have repeatedly said so and I have been repeatedly criticised for saying so , maybe now you will believe me. It all starts with squeezing funds out of individuals and businesses in return for certificates and other "religious services". The whole purpose of a religious official is to control the herd and to be in charge of other people's minds, this inevitably leads to corruption, always on a small scale but in some cases, as here, to very serious crimes. This will reflect on all of us and I assure you all that the ramifications of this will be felt very soon, by Jews in NY and also here. I hope they go to gaol for a long time, a very long time.

if these people were accused of such crimes in Israel, they would be elected to the Knesset!

I was waiting for your kind of comment.... and you didnt fail me.... 'Blame it on Obama' because he is a secret Muslim, and he hates Israel, and he is in the pay of the Palestinians, and there is a conspiracy to discredit all Jews in the eyes of the US public and he hates Bagels, and he loves Cheeseburgers..... Brilliant stuff....Classic...... I needed a laugh this Friday morning... Thanks......

IM ACTUALY SICKENED BY THIS MOISER, MAMISH A CLASSICAL CASE ITS DISGUSTING THAT JEWS WOULD SCREW THEIR FELLOW PEOPLE LIKE THAT

thanks for the colorful commentary: spoon a shit spoilin a bucket a buttermilk? dag that is talent!

Maimonides, Mishneh Torah, Hilchot Gezeilah 1:2 "And it is biblically forbidden to steal even a minor amount; even a gentile - it is forbidden to steal from him or to cheat him. And if you stole from him or cheated him you must return the stolen money or object." Choschen Hamm 388, 15: "If it can be proven that someone has given the money of Israelites to the Goyim, a way must be found after prudent consideration to wipe him off the face of the earth." One of the many criminal complaints filed in the case also accused a Brooklyn man, Levy Izhak Rosenbaum, with conspiring to broker the sale of a human kidney for a transplant, at a cost of $160,000 to the transplant recipient. But, Levy was paying only $10,000 to the doner. was the difference of $150,000 minor? was the sum extracted from Jew or goy transplant recipient?; that what really makes the difference.

deal in fake Gucci gags. Real people deal in real Gucci bags.

while the cheapest versions of authentic Gucci handbags start at $800. Of course real people costs more than $100.

those rabbis are certainly authentic Jews not fake, for that they are 99% Israelis (note that even NK rabbis have Israeli citizenship). In spite of that their crime is DUAL for they Trafficked fake Gucci Bags (that's first) With Laundered Money (that's second crime)

is what I said, Jews or not, I do not care. I meant as human beings they are fake, and I shall stand by my words forever.

None of this is anything compared to the Inquisition!

Well, Jew-haters ALWAYS support each other.

Couldn't agree more. He didn't attend Wright's sermons for 20 years for nothing, not to mention his dear friend Rashid Khalidi. Emanuel and Axelrod will rot for this.

These rabbis did a good job. They were assisting poor people and patients. All these money that they got by any means went into Africa and elsewhere. So, we cannot say they are criminals.

It's an investigation going on for 10 , TEN , years . Not Obama related at all .

The Ashkenazim do not practice Hoshen Mishpat, the laws of damages. For your information it was only enforced in Sepharadic lands. These Sepharadic Rabbis areested along with the others had adopted the Ashkenazi path of disregarding these laws. This is a central case, which should allow to question the validity of the Ashkenazi Judaism which like Christianity has no relevance in civil laws, but mainly deals with rituals, marriage and hope for Heaven, but has no Justice system attached to it. Think about this.

Firstly, no one is absolving the "snitch" from his crimes. The men who were arrested of the crimes of bank fraud, money laundering, selling of organs will appear before a jury, to be judged guilty or innocent. Giving stolen money to a charity is no mitzvah. Selling human organs outside of the system allows wealthy individuals to put their needs above others. Money Laundering for Israel does not help the Jewish cause. The Torah teaches us to conduct ourselves, to love our neighbor, care for the needy (including the taxpayers of New Jersey and New York), and to do what is right because it is right. These individuals, politicians, officials, and prominent rabbis shame us as Jews and citizens. Finally, you do not have any power to excommunicate any individual. We are Jews, through birth and conversion, whether Orthodox, Conservative, Reform or Reconstruction, Ashkanasi or Sephardic. We need to support each other, especially in the Diasporah, where we are all strangers in a strange land.
