И да будет известно всем...
Mar. 23rd, 2005 01:06 pmИздательство Soncino опубликовало следующее заявление по поводу антисемитского сайта come-and-hear.com (который содержит значительную часть их перевода Вавилонского Талмуда на английский):
Thank you for taking the time to ask us this question.
We are aware of come-and-hear.com and we are doing all we can to get them to remove the text from their website. This issue is very complex so we do not expect it to be resolved in the near future.
While I understand the urge to access the Talmud on their site with the justification that it will cost them in bandwith, you must realize that visiting their site only helps them spread their agenda. You may be aware that as a website gets more visitors their rank on Google and other search engines goes up. Come-and-hear.com is now in the top four entries on Google and Yahoo, so it is best not to visit the site so that they hopefully will fade into obscurity and others will not be fooled by their hateful message. Besides, they most likely have counters that track the number of hits they receive and adding yourself to that number can only encourage them to try to do more.
Thank you again for contacting us.
