Yes, as a matter of fact I have! The great blood libels of Prague...well I've got news for you, those blood libels were brought against the Jews because people didn't like them and wanted them to get arrested, etc and therefore they would plant dead bodies in the Jewish people's houses on passover. Luckily enough, with the help of G-d, The Maharal of Prague and the Golem, the Jews were able to stop the blood libels and prove that they were all lies...and that is why to this day there is no such belief that the Jews use blood on passover. Any person that believes that is an anti Semite and can believe all he wants because it is not true and they will never be able to prove it!

No, I have not heard about those Jews and if they do what you mentioned, I have no shadow of doubt in my heart that they are not Jews.
Thist is a total fabrication. Jews and Muslims do not eat blood. When they slaughter their animals, they make sure that the blood is totally drained. Jews call it KOSHER meat and Muslims call it HALAL meat. Draining blood from children even without killing them to mix it with flower for the purpose of leavening it is ridiculous as the passover bread, to begin with, is supposed to be unleavened.
Also people who think Muslims are the ones who started this in the Middle East are fools. Jews are called in the qur'an people of the book and their food is good for Muslims to eat. Why would they start a lie like that, regardless of all the politics occurring between Muslims and Jews.
Stop being a parrot talking ignorant syllables said by foolish people.

That ridiculous old myth is just that - a myth. Even if it were true, how in the world could blood leaven bread???? And if it were a leavening agent, it would be FORBIDDEN to Jews during Passover - so anyway you tell it, it's total silliness.

You poor sad little person! Don't you know to not repeat the lies of your elders?
The whole point of bread served during Passover is that it *not* have leavening of any sort!
Also, the blood libel, as the story you're telling is called, was orgininally told by Muslims in the Middle East, spread from there into Europe, and has absolutely no basis in fact.

No this was a rediculous lie made up by Christians in Russia, Poland, etc. I'm sure they thought of it by the blood of lambs used in Egypt or the Red wine Jews drink on Passover.
The truth is the bible explicitly forbids blood and Jews even check their eggs before they are used for blood, just a little dot. So much for draining children for it.

I've heard that before! I class it as a lie! Why? Because the Jews are hated! So any stupid myth like this to make them look like evil people! Sorry, but they (the Jews) would never do such a thing!

Okay, take it form me, since I'm Jewish. It's made with flowere and water, blood isn't kosher, and murder is not allowed. That is one of the most ridiculous acccusations and I can't believe it still exists. Read the book I'm sure it doesn't offer an iota of proof

Which is strange, since according to Jewish law, matzah made with blood is unfit. And it's unleavened bread we eat. And that's over 1000 years old, get some new myths.

Leaven bread is bread or cake with no yeast and very little water, (or liquid) so that it can not rise. Your book is fiction.

Are you going to post a link with some sort of proof, or are we just to assume that you made this up to get people going?
Don't be a hater. It's very unbecoming...
