I remember watching this last year.
Being a non Jew in Israel is worst than being a non-Muslim in a Islamic state.
I read a few articles of priests/Imams getting spat on, on a daily bases...
Sick country and a sick world lol

From what I've read that sketch, in its proper context, is actually aimed at mocking 70s era Israeli TV that featured this sort of prejudice. Imagine that the girl is playing a character somewhat like the 'Church Lady' on SNL... from that perspective it is obviously making fun of Israelis who see Christians that way.

I know nothing of the context or background, but generally in liberal societies that have free speech and expression you can castigate any religious figure you like. If it attracts viewers to your airwaves and meets broadcast standards it generally isn't an issue.

Ummm. I wouldn't take this too seriously. Bad taste? Sure. Serious discussion between bikini girl and monkey? Not so serious.

I don't have a dog in this fight. But having said that, I think the video would have been more meaningful if the woman was nekkid.
I'm just saying.

I enjoyed watching her breathe so much that I couldn't read the sub-titles.
