Sad day

A very prominet figure in the Jewish nationlistic world has been convicted of sexual misconduct
Rabbi Moti Elon for the longest time has said he has done nothing wrong and all his hugs and physical contact were always based on fatherly love and not of any sexual nature.
A judge today in Jerusalem today thought otherwise and has convicted Rabbi Elon of severe wrong doing.
His staure and popularity is unprecedented as was his pedigree. His father was a supreme court justice and brother a former memeber of parliment.
His thousands of supporters will be stunned,confused and bewildered as to the ramifications of this horrible episode
It will get worse of course as Rabbi Elon will probably be going to Jail for an extended period
It is hard to put in words the damaging effect all this has done to the image of national religous movement
It is a very sad day indeed.
