I am new to this forum, non-jew)I would tell you what I think of Yosef Mizrachi, but my words would probably not meet the standards of this forum. Mizrachi was among those who, on the mistaken belief that a brit milah ceremony for a gay couple was taking place in the Pittsburgh synagogue when the horrific shooting began, declared that the shooting occurred because of the sin of the congregation.
To my mind he belongs on the dung heap with those Haredi rabbis who have opined that the Shoah was G-d’s angry response to either the Jewish embrace of Zionism or the embrace of Reform Judaism.
