Attrocity in New York City - by Moses

Justify everything?

  There has been a recent 'youtube' video 'entailing of saliva from a Moyle's mouth to the penis of a baby within eight days old' that is currently being condoned by the ultra orthodox Jewish Community in New York City.  In fact this sadistic practice has been given a name in Custom of the ultra orthodox Jewish Community and now taught in their community to be commonplace.  This practice carries no validity in the study of Torah, and symbolically represents pedophilia- as the image of a man licking the genitals of a baby is an obscene act.

  What happened to Woody Allen after he had sexual intercourse with his daughter?  Why did some Rabbi's defend Allen's right, as a man, to sleep with his nineteen year old daughter, for the simple reason that she was adopted?

  This is perversion of justice in a moral sense.  As a Canadian Jew I find it morally offensive when there is a cover up in the ultra orthodox Jewish Communities within North America for this reason.  I try to live in a multicultural city without pretension to faith.  In my mind there is good and bad in every culture.  To say that everyone is entitled to their belief doesn't work for a Rabbi if another Rabbi says so 'while condoning an act of pedophilia'.  In other words I won't listen to a Rabbi if he tries to justify this practice as Judaism.  In fact if he tried justifying the act to my face I might even want to physically lash out at how obscene this practice is to me as a Jew.  The act is offensive to 99.99% of the Jewish population Worldwide and probably 99.99% of the rest of the population.  Why is this practice being accepted in New York City in 2017?  What I'd like to know is why nothing is being done about it, as to how the Jewish community of New York State should deal with the Rabbi's condoning this practice?  Why aren't these Rabbi's put into jail for the images they've brought forth (in a physical act of sucking a babies penis) to everyone in their immediate community?
