Brazilian Federal Police Launched Operation Against Pastor Who Prayed for New Holocaust Against the Jews

Brazilian Federal Police Launched Operation Against Pastor Who Prayed for New Holocaust Against the Jews

By Julio Severo

The Brazilian Federal Police launched Operation Shalom on March 12, 2021, against a pastor who offended the Jewish community.

Tupirani da Hora Lores, the Brazilian minister targeted by the investigation, became internationally notorious after he led a 2020 prayer in his church for God to destroy the Jews.

According to The Jerusalem Post, Tupirani prayed to God to “destroy the Jews like vermin” and bring about a second Holocaust. The Jewish newspaper added:

“Massacre the Jews, God, hit them with your sword, for they have left God, they have left the nations,” Pastor Tupirani da Hora Lores shouted at dozens of congregants earlier this month (June 2020) at his Geracao Jesus Cristo church, a recording of the event shows. His congregants are heard repeating his words passionately.

“They contrived, went with prostitutes, and when they were told to repent they said they’d do it but they lied,” the pastor said, possibly in reference to the forced conversions to Christianity during the Inquisition.

“God, what you have done in World War II, you must do again, this is what we ask for in our prayers to you: Justice, justice, justice!” da Hora Lores shouted at his church, a small and radical evangelical congregation.

Tupirani is a very isolated “Pentecostal” and he is not representative of the Brazilian Pentecostalism, which is very friendly to Israel. In fact, when Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu visited Brazil in 2019, he said,

“We have no better friends in the world than the Evangelical community, and the Evangelical community has no better friend in the world than the State of Israel.”

So the prayer of Tupirani asking for a new Holocaust against the Jews, interpreted by the Jerusalem Post as looking like the forced conversions of the Jews to the Catholic Church during the Inquisition, has nothing to do with Brazilian evangelicals, who are mostly Pentecostals who reject the Inquisition.

In fact, my articles have spearheaded efforts to fight against the sanitization of the Inquisition. I have praised Jewish efforts to fight the Inquisition advocacy movement in Brazil. I have consistently and positively mentioned a book against the Inquisition written by the father of Netanyahu.

I have several articles also against what Nazis did against the Jews in the Holocaust, including this one: “Holocaust Remembrance Day: Few people know the consequences of anti-Semitism.”

Obviously, the Inquisition advocacy movement in Brazil hates my articles. Their hatred is not different from the hatred of Tupirani, who in a 2019 YouTube video called me a “coward.”

The actions of the Brazilian Federal Police against Tupirani for his speech against the Jews are correct. But if his speech is similar to the Inquisition, as The Jerusalem Post pointed out, what is the Federal Police going to do against videos and articles in the Brazilian internet sanitizing the Inquisition? What is the Federal Police going to do against Olavo de Carvalho, the most prominent advocate of the Inquisition revisionism in Brazil?

In Brazil, pro-Inquisition feelings are uncommon among evangelicals and Pentecostals, but common among Carvalho’s Catholic adherents.

Allan dos Santos, one of the main Catholic supporters of Carvalho’s revisionism, has also, as Tupirani did, called me a “coward” in one of his YouTube videos. He was also targeted by an investigation of the Brazilian Federal Police in 2020 for fake news, but he fled to the U.S. before being arrested.

True cowardice is to pray for a new Holocaust and to defend the nasty fake news that the Inquisition did not torture and kill multitudes of innocent Jews.
