Court Jew? Ribbety has some thoughts on Rabbi Jonathan Sack's recent critique of Israeli policy, basically accusing Sacks of being a court Jew. Here in the States, we don't have such things as Chief Rabbis appointed by the government, so his very position works against his credibility in my eyes. And I have heard enough anecdotes about the stultifying nature of being Jewish in Britain that I am inclined to believe Ribbety's analysis of his remarks.
