Gah.
Among the publications that have propagated the ritual murder charges were Soviet Byelorussia and the Orthodox Church’s Tsarkounae Slova (Word of Church), which in 1992 advised its readers to “be aware of cruel cults, where human sacrifices are being practiced” and it identified Jewish Hasidism as such a cult.
What the hell. The church itself is promoting the blood libel. That’s some sick shit.
