'He's a religious bigot': Mitt Romney leads criticism of baptist minister giving the prayer that will open the US Embassy in Jerusalem in front of Jared and Ivanka despite him saying 'you can't be saved by being a Jew'


~ Robert Jeffress, a Dallas-based Southern Baptist pastor, will deliver the prayer to open the new US embassy in Jerusalem

~ Jeffress has made offensive remarks in the past about Jews, Mormons, Catholics, Muslims, and Buddhists

~ Mitt Romney, the former GOP presidential nominee, blasted Jeffress as a 'religious bigot'

~ White House advisers Jared Kushner and Ivanka Trump reportedly received a blessing from a rabbi who previously
compared black people to monkeys

~ Rabbi Yitzhak Yosef is one of the two chief rabbis in Israel and used the word 'kushi'—a biblical term now considered
derogatory for black people

"A Southern Baptist pastor who once called Mormonism ‘a cult,’ said Jews were ‘going to hell,’ and that Catholicism was ‘the genius of Satan’ has been picked by the Trump administration to lead the prayer for the new US embassy in Jerusalem.

Former Republican presidential nominee Mitt Romney, who is himself a Mormon, is leading the chorus of criticism against 'religious bigot' Robert Jeffress, who will speak in front of Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner on Monday.

In a tweet Sunday night, the former Massachusetts governor who is now running for a Senate seat from Utah criticized Jeffress for his remarks about Jews, Mormons and Islam.

Romney said, ‘Robert Jeffress says “you can't be saved by being a Jew,” and “Mormonism is a heresy from the pit of hell.” He's said the same about Islam.’"

Jared and Ivanka recieve a blessing from Sephardic Chief Rabbi Yitzhak Yosef

Chief rabbi calls black people ‘monkeys’ (20 March 2018)

<snip>

"The Sephardic chief rabbi of Israel called black people “monkeys” during his weekly sermon on Saturday evening.

Rabbi Yitzhak Yosef was addressing Jewish legal aspects of the blessing on seeing fruit trees blossoming, during the current Hebrew month of Nissan, and, specifically, whether one should bless one tree or at least two.

In that context, he mentioned a blessing uttered upon seeing an “unusual creature,” citing the example of encountering a black person who has two white parents on the street in America.

In footage aired by the Ynet news site, Yosef could be seen referring to black people by the word “kushi,” which in modern Hebrew has pejorative connotations, and then going on to term a black person a “monkey.”

His office told Ynet that the comparison was a quote from the Talmud."
