Jerusalem rabbis 'condemn dog to death by stoning'

_53495973_012218189-2.jpg In traditional Judaism, dogs are considered to be impure animals
A Jewish rabbinical court condemned to death by stoning a stray dog it feared was the reincarnation of a lawyer who insulted its judges, reports say.
The dog entered the Jerusalem financial court several weeks ago and would not leave, reports Israeli website Ynet.
It reminded a judge of a curse passed on a now deceased secular lawyer about 20 years ago, when judges bid his spirit to enter the body of a dog.
The animal is said to have escaped before the sentence was carried out.
One of the judges at the court in the city's ultra-Orthodox Mea Shearim neighbourhood had reportedly asked local children to carry out the sentence.
An animal welfare organisation filed a complaint with the police against a court official, who denied reports that judges had ordered the dog's stoning, according to Ynet.
But a court manager told Israeli daily Yediot Aharonot the stoning had been ordered as "as an appropriate way to 'get back at' the spirit which entered the poor dog", according to Ynet.

First of all, you forgot the word...'often' which does make a bit of a difference in that sentence imo, and it makes me wonder why you left it out to begin with...hmmmmmmmm you would have had to purposely delete the word....curious.

If you read on, you'll see it was just a few rediculoiusly idiotic men who ordered some of the local children who were playing outside to throw stones at the dog to scare him off of the property. I don't agree with the rabbi's decision but it just goes to show you that there are drama queens in every country....this one happened to be the courts manager in question.

I can confirm that the "OFTEN" was in fact added to the article later, because I copy/pasted the same article to a different site, and the often is missing from mine as well.
