Bloody Passovers refers to the ritual crucifixions of Catholic boys and the consumption of their blood by Ashkenazy Jєωs at the Passover celebrations. These ceremonies reportedly took place at least up to 15th century.

This controversial book written by Prof. Ariel Toaff (A.T.), an Italian Jєωιѕн scholar, raised indignation as soon as it was published in 2007. Toaff is the son of Elio Toaff, former chief rabbi of Rome and the partner of John Paul II in countless inter-religious ceremonies. Although this Jєωιѕн scholar seems to represents a considerable part of Italian Judaism, his liberal Jєωιѕн supporters were not strong enough to keep his book in circulation. Other currents of Judaism considered his work to be gravely inconvenient, and imposed a de facto embargo on its distribution shortly after its release.
