The OU/IPA has been carefully following a
custodial case in Genoa, Italy whose progress has given us much cause for concern.
This custodial case, between a divorced Israeli father who has converted to Catholicism
and an Israeli mother who is a ba’alat teshuva, has caused alarm in the worldwide
Orthodox community due to the malicious characterization of Orthodox Judaism as a
fanatical cult. We are asking our member synagogues and supporters to write letters
to the Italian authorities protesting the injustice with which this case has been
handled. Below is a link to a sample letter which you may use or choose to adapt and
a list of names and addresses to whom your letter should be directed.
When emailing, we ask that you please BCC (send a copy of
your email to) [email protected] so that we can
accumulate as large a number of correspondence as possible to present to the Italian court
and the Italian government.
