Wrath of the nutbars
Or no good deed goes unpunished. Shas party is rumoured to be the most bribable of all Israeli political parties but apparently the Neturei Karta (crazy Jews you always see playing kissy-face with Ahmadinejad) didn’t get the memo. Ynet News:
Interior Minister Eli Yishai was pelted with stones on Monday as he arrived at the Mea Shearim neighborhood in Jerusalem for a condolence visit at the home of Rabbi Yosef Shalom Elyashiv. A group of Neturei Karta members, known for their radical opinions against Israel and Zionism,began chanting at the Shas chairman, “Shegetz” (non-Jewish boy) and “Zionist”. Some punctured the tires of his car and hurled stones at him. The minister escaped unharmed and hid in the rabbi’s yard. Police forces were dispatched to the area to disperse the crowd.
I always shegetz meant an abomination in reference to non-kosher food…but hey, what do I know? Good on Yishai for even considering to do a mitzvah around one of the nutbars.
actually shegetz is simply the masculine form of shiksa

if this had happened in canada, it would have been listed as a hate crime
I’m not up on my Yiddish – but I shegetz was ‘admonition’ and goy singular was the term most often used for a male non-Jew and goyim for more than one. What your saying does make sense – although, I could think of many names to call Yishai but ’shegetz’ doesn’t begin to make my personal top ten for him.
