"He says he’s suffering from post-­traumatic stress disorder because he’s living in constant fear and gets only four hours of sleep a night. He’s installed closed-­circuit surveillance cameras around his home at his own expense. “How long is it going to go on? Who is going to be next?” Karpichkov demands to know from the British authorities."

Oh, come on. He is in a pretty pickle but it's an occupational hazard and he knows it, after all, he was one of them.

I understand that this is meant to be satire but I think he misrepresents the repurchase of the chometz.  The chometz is repurchased at the approximate same price it was sold for, so there is no taxable gain, nor wash.  T

#7 looked interesting.

I'd say the whole list seems designed to be pretty condescending to orthodox traditions.

pretty straightforward from what I can tell. Did you buy any pets/chometz this year?

And they didn't even put in the one about the blood in the matza...

Does the obvious need to be said?

I would disagree, I think they did a fairly good job at explaining things without really taking a side in anything.

Hebrew article.

Amazing how people deliberately plan for childless residents, and essentially a bedroom community within an Urban Metropolis.

Really?

1) the torah has things confusingly, but not to worry - we've since combined what they consider two different holidays into one passover.

2) Putting aside kabbalistic sources that there are other, deeper meanings to having two days, there's an implication that reform judaism are the ones following the letter of the law here.

4) It's all about traditions based on mistakes.

5) And science and technology have made all those rabbinic decrees outdated, dontcha know?

I'm not even going to bother responding to everything you said, you're being close-minded and stupid if you're going to nit pick like that. It's a non-Jewish article, how intricate do you think their knowledge goes?
I love how frum Jews like to get mad about how wrong the regular media gets all of our "traditions" and such, and then go take everything they write about other cultures and religions as fact. If they're getting so much wrong about us, do you really think they're getting everything else right?
