Anshel Pfeffer, Haaretz Correspondent: Interior Minister accused of preventing converts from immigrating to Israel
Talkback
Title:To # 12 , Dovid of Boston
Name:Veteran Convert
City: Petach TikvaState: Israel
" Anyone who is willing to give up everything to BECOME A JEW and accept Torah should be encouraged. I will make Israel my home! "

Don`t fool yourself Dovid and don`t let your imagination run away with you. YOU CANNOT JUST BECOME A JEW BY ACCEPTING THEIR RELIGION , you`re either a Jew by birth or you aren`t. The Jews are a race just like the Chinese , Japanese or the Africans. They don`t like to hear this but it`s a fact. The other fact that by converting you`re for all PRACTICAL PURPOSES CONSIDERED OR ACCEPTED AS A JEW doesn`t really make you one yet. It`s just pure whitewash and you`ll always remain just a "COPY JEW". You`ll never be able to drop your own birth characteristics of whoever you were before, if you like it or not. Just try to turn a Chinese into a Jew and you`ll find you have a big problem.

Nevertheless, if it makes you happy, I wish you a nice and successful aliyah this December, no more Merry Christmas for you. I also hope you`ll never regret anything. Good luck.
