Harry Potter Desecrates Shabbat Headline Contest
As we heard the other day, most stores in Israel were open this past Shabbat for the release of the seventh and final Harry Potter book. While the hype around this was pretty nuts, I have to say that the variety of headlines with this story has been the most exciting part:
Harry Potter’s Israel launch pits wizard vs rabbis (Reuters)
Will Harry Potter’s magic work in Israel? (CNN-IBN)
Harry Potter Angers Zionist regime (PressTV, Iran)
Gawker even gave him a kippah:
