Far Rightist Lehava Organization Urges Israeli Model Not to Marry Non-Jewish DiCaprio

The Jewish Telegraphic Agency website reports today (March 15, 2010) that members of a Jewish nationalist group have written to Israeli supermodel Bar Rafaeli, urging her not to marry her non-Jewish boyfriend, actor Leonardo DiCaprio.

"Your grandmother and her grandmother did not dream that one of their descendants would one day remove the family's future generations from the Jewish people," read a letter from the far-rightist Baruch Marzel on behalf of the Lehava organization, which is dedicated to preventing assimilation.

"Come to your senses, look forward and back too -- and not only the present. Don't marry Leonardo DiCaprio, don't harm the future generations," the letter concluded.

The letter comes after DiCaprio said in an interview earlier this month that he was thinking of getting married and starting a family. DiCaprio became a popular Hollywood actor after he starred in the movie "Titanic," along with his lover in that movie, actress Kate Winslet.
