'''Neturi Karta''' is an anti-[[Zionism|Zionist]] sect of ultra-orthodox [[Jew]]s. They believe that Zionism is demonic<ref>http://www.adl.org/Israel/israel_protest_calendar_groups.asp#26</ref>. They support the destruction of [[Israel]] on the basis that only God can set up the Israeli state, through the [[Messiah]]. The Rabbis of Neturi Karta publicly support [[Iran|Iranian]] president [[Mahmoud Ahmadinejad]], who has called for Israel to be "wiped off the map". They also back his claim that the Zionist Jews exploit the [[Holocaust]]<ref>http://english.aljazeera.net/English/archive/archive?ArchiveId=19043</ref>. They cheer for [[Palestine|Palestinian]] suicide bombers and burn Israeli flags on a regular basis. Recently, one of their [[synagogue]]s in [[New York City]] was burned. They claim it was a terrorist attack and a hate crime, but officials suspect it was accidental<ref>http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,263520,00.html</ref>. In March, one of their Rabbis was beaten in [[Poland]] by two Polish Jews<ref>http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,258827,00.html</ref>.
