A visiting Israeli author painted a bleak picture of non-Orthodox Jewish life in the US during a New York City book signing hosted by The Algemeiner last month.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Tuvia Tenenbom \u2014 whose newest book is titled The Lies They Tell, which details a trip he took across America \u2014 told the crowd at the Center for Jewish History, \u201cIn state after state, temple after temple, what I saw and what I witnessed was a nightmare. You see rabbis, or so-called rabbis, leaders, supposed leaders, standing at a podium and all they can tell to their listeners is that Israel is an apartheid state and that Judaism is racism. That\u2019s what they preach.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Later, he added, \u201cWhen you see some anti-Jewish thing, if you dig deep and put a magnifying lens to see who\u2019s behind it, over and over and over you find a Jew, and that\u2019s frightening.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n
