Israeli President Accused Of Rape

Friday, January 26, 2007

The Israeli parliament agreed to allow President Moshe Katsav to temporarily step down in order to fight possible rape charges. What do you think?

Esther Jones,

"Rape charges against the president of Israel? Man, Lebanon is really going to pay for this one somehow."

Lee Marlowe,
Support Staff
"I sure hope he wasn't Bar Mitzvah'ed. He'll serve much less time in prison if he's charged as a juvenile."

Moses Brown,
Social Worker
Well, at least he'll have Palestinian support behind him for having raped a Jew."
