Hi Teresh, Here is the article you wanted.

Israel women trafficking soars
Between 3,000 and 5,000 women have been smuggled into Israel in the past four years to work as prostitutes, according to a parliamentary inquiry.
The report described how the women are sold at public auctions for as much as $10,000 and forced to work up to 18 hours a day.

On average the women receive only three percent of the money they earn from prostitution, the report said.

Most of the women are from the former Soviet Union.

Many are raped and beaten as they are smuggled into Israel over the Egyptian border, the inquiry found.

Attitudes

Zehava Galon, of the opposition Yahad Party, presented the report to the speaker of the Knesset on Wednesday.

"We began this inquiry to investigate the extent of this phenomenon and raise political awareness of their plight and the brutal nature of the trafficking of women in this time of globalisation," said Ms Galon.

She said the biggest challenge in addressing the plight of women in the sex trade was changing the attitudes of the Israeli public and police.

The inquiry also criticised judges for passing light sentences, sometimes only community service, for men running prostitution rings.

The report called for minimum jail terms of 16 years for those convicted. London-based rights group Amnesty International and the US State Department have also reported an alarming increase in prostitution rings in Israel.

Read it again, Notice the Israelis do auctioneering bids for the women in the public square. No another country does that, Not even Amsterdam does public auctions for sex slaves in the public square. Amsterdam treats their women much better but not by much in the Red Light District.

Whoa.... how many of our congressmen and senators today are jewish? I was shocked to see how many of them are jewish. Shouldn't they be governing over Israel and leaving America alone.
There is nothing wrong with having Jewish Congressmen. They are Americans, not Israelis.
 
I have had jewish women come up to me in the city and ask me to sign their petitions to stop prostitution activity in Israel and I did sign the petition.

Yes then their concern should remain American and let the Israelites take care of their national needs and if they need our help then we should be able to vote wheter we should or should not do that. We can't just give an estimated $15 billion dollars to Israel on the spot then how can we budget for our own U.S. Armed Forces much less anything else for social programs. I mean that is not right to just hand over $15 billion dollars on the spot without any consideration to the American voters.

True. Also, there is more to the story:

Amnesty [International] said that Russian-based criminal gangs had used the influx of immigrants from the former Soviet Union into Israel as a cover to sneak in an estimated 10,000 prostitutes over the past decade.

Israeli officials maintain that the prosecution of pimps and gang members is difficult because some women fail to co-operate with the police.

Amnesty admitted that many of the women, who were illegal aliens, feared they would be jailed or deported without having a chance to apply for asylum under international law if they filed complaints with the police or testified in court.

There is no excuse for sex slavery, and the guilt touches many heads. However, it is not just a "Jewish" crime, and Israel is making efforts to crack down on it.

Lol, it had nothing to do with anti-Semitism.

I was poking fun at his extreme right wing ideas which Fox News embrace.

**I dont agree with liberals either, so dont think I m singling conservatives out.

Right but what they don't say is that the Russian based criminal gangs who are running those prostitution rings are jewish guys themselves which shocked me when I was told that by the jewish women who were trying to collect as many signatures at a 3 day event on the street where they had tables folded out with chairs, banners up and they had free koolaid and some cookies and I talked to them on paper and pen and I signed the petition and I will sign the petition again if I do run into them again.
 
Heath said:
OK, I did.

"Today, the prostitute in Tel Aviv is more likely to be named Olga than Rachel, and she's not an Israeli, or in Israel legally. She's one of the more than 2,000 to 2,500 women from former Soviet republics brought into Israel by international traffickers to feed a $450 million-a-year prostitution industry centered around Tel Aviv. "

"Organizations such as the Israel Religious Action Center, the Israel Women's Network and others are trying to organize legal assistance and public support for effective help for women trapped in Israel's sex industry and a harsher response to trafficking and violation of human rights."

"Why should this be an issue for the American Jewish community? After all, most of the women affected are not Jewish. This is an international problem, not one specific to Israel. Italy, Turkey and Greece are all major destination countries for trafficked women. Should it be "our" concern only because it happens in Israel?"

"Yes, and no. It should be our concern because we have concern for Israel. Because a fine human rights record, and the means to achieve that record are among the things we want for Israel."

"The Israel Women's Network has done extensive research and legal advocacy work on the issue of trafficking to Israel."


Yes, Israel has a problem. They are just beginning to do something about it. But this is far from "proof" that the Jews are behind world-wide sex slavery. If you read more you will see that it is an international problem, and in the case of Israel, the Russian mobs are behind the trafficking.

There are scum in every race, color, ethnicity, etc. No one is exempt. But the scum manage to be scum on their own without a Jewish conspiracy to back them up.


Both. They go together. Today Israel has two countries The USA and the USSR. Jews like to work in opposite directions, that is their modi operandi. Remember how America tried to fight communism ? The USSR was fighting yankee imperialism ? What was Israel doing during those years I ask you ?
There is no USSR now, the communist system there collapsed, and Israel doesn't "have" any countries other than its own.

You tell me, "what was Israel doing during those years."


The japanese hated us then went to Hitler all on their own and Hitler went whoa.....
:rofl:

Sorry, I was just visualizing Hitler going "whoa"! Are sure he didn't say, "whoa, dude!"?

:rofl:


... I still think Hitler was not interested in America nor had he any reason to be.
Did he tell you that?

Here is something for you to think about on the topic of political correctness.

THE POLITICALLY CORRECT CHRIST?

Was Jesus politically correct? What a question! It must be asked however. The reson it must be asked is simply that ALL True Christians should seek to emulate Christ. Similarly all true churches should seek to be like Christ. And since we see such an effort to be so unoffending, and so, well...politically correct, the question must be answered.

Let's define political correctness. First of all it is hypocritical and deceitful. It means that you will seek to avoid offending at all costs. In fact, to avoid offending is better than to speak the truth. That is if your goal is to be "PC". This is where terms like "Alternative Lifestyles"are used as replacements for "homosexual partnerships", and "Undocumented Immigrant" for "Illegal Alien".

Neither one was as much of an issue in Jesus' time as they were today. But what was a big issue was the desecration of the temple by thieves, and the dilution of God's Word by the Pharisees and Sadducees. Read the following scriptures and tell me whether Christ was worried about being "PC".

...Christ was pretty clear in how He dealt with that which was scripturally wrong. He was a kind and gentle man at times, but an "in your face" teacher when challenged. He didn't worry that the Pharisees would go home and feel offended, nor did He concern Himself with their "self-esteem". He told it like it was and said what was on his mind. That is how we must be and not like some pusilanimous nice-guy-at-all-costs preachers whose only goal is to make sure they offend no-one as they teach wrong doctrine.

Was Christ politically correct? Absolutely not! Let us be likewise.
Yes, Jesus Christ was not "politically correct", and He was bold in His statements. But He was also 100 percent correct in His knowledge and statements. He was Truth and spoke truth. No "opinions" or wrong perspectives. Jesus knew the score. He wasn't paranoid. Jesus could speak boldly because He was righteous AND right.

We humans need to be more careful about our statements. Yes, we can speak boldly but we really need to check our facts first, AND check our motives for what we say. Don't worry about "political correctness"; worry about being "biblically correct".

Jesus was perfect; we are not.
 
Heath said:
Not gonna happen because you know I am speaking the truth here and none of you like it. I do speak the truth from time to time to give you a dose of old fashioned reality that really does work. When people do not like something they see then they will say it is silly and mock, even when the person is telling the truth like it is. That is because they have nothing else to say so they fall back on making fun of somebody else.


Yeah, yeah, yeah...whatever, You know what? I think you need to get a life...sheesh

Take a good look at the jews, they mocked and made fun of Jesus Christ even though Jesus Christ was telling the truth and not watering it down for the jews. Go on and laugh with a evil snicker all you want. That is none of my concern.
