Rabbi Linda Goldstien, shlita, tweeted out this profound message to her followers:

This week's TorXh portion is Genesis.
The first human, Moses, is born. He is also the first human to steal a fruit, leading to the ongoing theft of #Palestinian olive trees to this very day.
Don't be like Moses.
#Free Palest1ne 🇵🇸 👏❤💪


No jokes. This is for real.

So sad that this is what she believes.
Torah is truth and she obviously hasn’t learnt it, obviously not read it to say that Moshe is the first person created.

It's a parody account. Nobody thinks Moses was the first human....

What does to str a fruit mean?

Very cursory googling leads me to believe that there is no reason to be dlkz. I don't think it's satire. It could just be a mistake though.

Yes. I have to question the sense of humor, at the very least, of anyone who could read this stuff without realizing that.

I can't open the image.
But anyone who has #freePalestine is beyond the pale, IMO.

I have to question the sense of humor of anyone who could read that and think it's somehow funny.

I find the humor of this "Rabbi" to be in very bad taste. With so much antisemitic content on social media, I think many people will take at face value. I'm sure she has many antisemitic followers who don't think it's a joke.

The toilet "humor" you posted is not funny. In general, I despise toilet humor. But I don't even get this at all. No semblance of humor what so ever!

At the very least if you don't want to be associated with terrible people, you can misspell the #freepalest1ne so that your post doesn't come up on social media. Including the hashtag is in such poor taste, IMO.

The joke is about negative effects of 'bottom surgery.' A lot of the time it is very disappointing, I understand, and odor is one of the issues that comes up.

Sorry. It was supposed to say steal.

After reading this, I went back to read her Twitter feed and I believe you are right. I think she is making fun of Palestinians. Her temple is called "Ahavat Jerusalem" (if her bio is to be believed) .

Well, that's heartening if it's so. I don't plan to do further research. Unfortunately there are too many pro Pal clergy and others out there (e.g. Ayelet Waldman and Michael Chabon ilk) to inspire me to be dlkz.

Just to be clear, I wasn't talking about you. I was talking about the person who originally posted it on social media.
