To the Editor:
As a Torah Jew, I am deeply distressed by the harassment and violence in Beit Shemesh — all of which is diametrically opposed to the teachings of our Holy Torah. Lest our silence be misconstrued as passive acceptance of this behavior, we condemn it in the strongest terms, as does the overwhelming majority of Torah Jews worldwide.
