People who criticize power in the Jewish community are regarded the way Ahab treated Elijah: You’re a traitor.

The pacifist is as surely a traitor to his country and to humanity as is the most brutal wrongdoer.

Every year during their High Holy Days, the Jewish community reminds us all of our need for repentance and forgiveness.

The scab is a traitor to his God, his mother, and his class.
