After years of focusing on gays and lesbians with its protests, the Westboro Baptist Church has a new target — the Jewish community.

The Topeka, Kan.-based church, which features the slogan “God Hates Fags,” protested at three Jewish sites in Washington, D.C., on May 8. The protests are part of a series of upcoming rallies that will bring members of the church to Jewish community institutions in Omaha, St. Louis, South Florida and Providence in the next few weeks, according to the church’s Web site and fliers the group is distributing that list scheduled protests and proclaim “Jews Killed the Lord Jesus.”

Led by Fred Phelps, pastor of the 71-member church, Westboro Baptist first gained notoriety about a decade ago when it began picketing the funerals of gays or those they thought were gay — including Matthew Shepard, who was the victim of an anti-gay attack.

In recent years, church members frequently have protested outside the funerals of soldiers killed in Iraq and Afghanistan, or at other events that are likely to bring news coverage and, in turn, publicity to the church.

While picketing outside the Washington office of the Anti Defamation League on May 8, Phelps’ daughter Margie said that the group is now focusing on the Jewish community because church members have been “testifying” to non-Jews for 19 years that “America is doomed” and they haven’t gotten the message.

I can't understand why the media give this group coverage.

They're assholes. End of story.

All the church members need is one good a$$ kickin'.....seriously, beat one senseless, the other will fade into the background....

It would be nice if that would work on them but I've heard Shirley Phelps Roper interviewed about a dozen times on the radio show I listen to in the morning and the guy interviewing just lets her talk and acts like he's interested in learning while constantly getting her message wrong and then apologizing. He makes some hilarious radio out of her and she actually opens up a little and the one thing they like the most is when they are confronted and attacked. They consider it their best showings. When they get little or no press or public outrage they consider the trip wasted. That is probably why they are going to the Jews now, their act is worn out with the homos and the soldiers and need to get some pizazz back in the act.

What's wrong with them Joe? Catholics discriminate against and belittle gays. They also are the single greatest contributers to anti semitism. So much so, your former Dope finally apologized.

Shit, Phelps and his gang have alot of work to do before they're even in the same asshole ballpark as you and your stupid fucking religion.

Many similarities, but Phelps is smarter and better looking.

Catholics discriminate against gays and are reponsible for the hatred of jews in the western world - Phelps would be honored to have such a distinction.

Just because I mauled you once again in our latest debate, are you going to follow me all around this board and harass me every time I post somewhere else?

Aw, poor Joe. Embarrassed and defeated. Afraid to answer simple theological questions. It's a shame - wasting all that top notch theology and philosophy study.

Joe you guess all you want.

These idiots are doing such a disservice. I wish they'd come to the Kakalaki, I'd be the first to be out protesting these idiots, if for no other reason than a good laugh.

Phelps's church has 71 members? That's almost as many followers as D1B!
