Israel’s Reform movement has decided to wipe out part of Aleinu authored by Yehoshua bin Nun in its upcoming prayer book, particularly the words, “Who did not make us like the nations of the lands,” which they are concerned may be offensive to non-Jews.
The attempt to sanitize the Aleinu prayer is a continuation of their transformation of some of the morning berachos. Shelo asani goy and Shelo asani ishah were altered to read She’asani Yisroel and She’asani betzalmo.

Bye moon.
Skip them.
Too long?
Crazy!
When will these monsters ever realize who they are?!
This reform Siddur looks very complicated
Great idea!
Next revision: Remove G-d’s name from all prayers since His mention is offensive to atheists.
I would add 2 brochos to Shacharis if it were permissible.
1) ……….Shelo Osani Reform Goy.
2) ……….Shelo Osani DemocRAT.
No need for the first additional brachah. It’s already included in Shelo Osani Goy (as most reform are goyim).
This is a picture of a full Ultra-Orthodox Sephardic Siddur, NOT of a reform prayer book!

Why do they even have a siddur?
Yeah, it’s gross.
They might as well use back issues of Mad Magazine.
Ha ha. Yes. Than they could of enjoyed looking at the equally clueless, Jeff Sessions.
Don’t Insult mad Magazine please:)
Is this your biggest worry? The Zionists have been doing it for a hundred years. Where’s the outcry about them?
Besides, you know there are different nusachs for Birkas Hashachar even without the Reform.
I didn’t even know they used siddurim. I didn’t think they ever davened.

First of all the reform only have services on the sabbath and high holidays. They are not going to daily Shul. The reform are mostly non Jews and have nothing to do with authentic Judaism.
“Aleinu” was never in place as a prayer. When I was growing up in the 1960s it was called the “Adoration,” and it never went anywhere near explaining that Israel was unique. So this is a non-story, sorry. I was happily surprised when I first encountered Aleinu in an Orthodox siddur.
Reform is not Judaism.
What about Open Orthodoxy?
Open Orthodoxy is a deviant form of Judaism.
