A recent public letter signed by eighty rabbis identifying as Orthodox has sparked controversy by criticizing Israel's conduct in the ongoing war. The article argues that many of the signatories represent fringe movements within Judaism, particularly 'Open Orthodoxy', which the author claims has deviated from traditional norms by ordaining women and openly LGBTQ rabbis. The piece laments the influence of left-leaning Jewish figures and organizations who, in the author's view, seek social acceptance by distancing themselves from mainstream Jewish values and Israel. The author expresses concern over internal divisions within Jewish denominations and warns that such public criticism undermines solidarity with Israel at a time of heightened international scrutiny.
