Spoof/Satire

Urgent Call to foreign doctors, social workers and diplomats in the UK

Please stay in-doors today. Your lives may be at risk – particularly if you’re Greek!

We are issuing this warning after events reported in the Jerusalem Post accompanying a picture that might incite the religiously orthodox to murderous violence.

ATHENS – Arsonists set fire to a synagogue on the Greek island of Corfu early on Tuesday, damaging prayer books but causing no injuries, in the third such attack in Greece in less than two years, police said.

The arson attack, staged just as the Passover festival was starting, alarmed the country’s dwindling Jewish community.

Since the standard and understandable response to burnt scriptures is a deadly rampage aimed randomly at foreigners, we’re terribly concerned about your safety today in London today, a city with a large Jewish population, and where  tensions must now be at fever-pitch.

Please foreigners, return to your compounds and lock the gates.

There are those who claim that Jews have no authentic culture and may thus may fail to murder foreign workers. This is a disgraceful smear. It should be made clear in advance that any actions by London’s Jews are understandable and the moral culpability for the consequences of any murderous rampage would, of course, be rest squarely on the shoulders of the blasphemous arsonists.
