On Being Jewish

The song remains the same.

http://www.adl.org/PresRele/ASUS_12/4458_12.htm

These are Jew hating American site and stats, yes whites and blacks coming together to HATE JEWS, see how easy it is to come together for a common purpose? {sic}

http://www.adl.org/PresRele/ASInt_13/4726_13.htm

Above is a site in Europe that shows anti-semitism is on the rise.

http://www.adl.org/main_Arab_World/asam_may_june_intro_2005_07.htm

Above is a site showing how prevalent anti-semitism is in most Arab countries.

Being stuck in the middle, A Jew not accepted by whites as white {thank GOD} But looked on as white by minorities, Ain't it grand?

While the world cannot seem to agree on anything, it seems most the world can agree on one thing! THEY all hate Jews.

America is not better than the rest, There are hate crimes against Jews happening all the time.

Anti-semitism is so prevalent in France that Jews are taking to hiding their identities from their countrymen.

Jews have been an oppressed people for THOUSANDS of years, ostracized by any and all races, Have had there property confiscated, made to leave the country the were born in with nothing more than they can carry, slaughtered by the millions in Russia and Germany,. bombed by Muslim terrorist {this very morning in Israel}

Yet we seem to rise above all these millennial of hatred, We educate ourselves, we do not see an anti-semitic behind every tree, we are among the most philanthropic peoples in the world.

When will this hatred stop? When can we as a people put aside our differences and come together as HUMAN BEINGS?

I don't hate Jews MM.

I will do everything I can to see the Jewish race flourish and get it's homeland back and get the temple rebuilt.

I won't support any action or inaction that harms the Jewish people.

I pray for Jerusalem and would willingly go to war for her and send my boys in that same service.

I do not think Jews are infallible...or perfect....but I think they are holy. And that is enough.

I am not pointing fingers tova, at anyone in particular, just bringing to light how Jews are still being treated around the world.

I dont deny that Jes are the target of a lot of prejudice and hate.  But we have made great strides since the time of the SPanish Inquisition, and the Third Reich.  It will not go away overnight as long as hate is the cannon fodder of the small mind.  But we are working towards it.

The biggest mistake the world makes (including Jews) is lumping Israel and the Jews as one in the same. Many of us do not agree with the policies of Israel, and that does not make us "self-hating" or "less Jewish." Still, I think most people are ignorant about us, and still fall back on "They killed our lord."

Jewish persecution has been going on for thousands of years, I do not see it stopping in my lifetime doc.

I just do not dwell on it or make it something I point out everytime someone opens their mouths.

Just remember I am armed and dangerous, hahahahah

thanx doc, for being a good friend to me in cyberspace.

Love seeing you rise to the occassion, Israel is not a Place for Jews only and when the troorrist talk about wiping Israel out I wonder if they even notice all the non-jews living there?

I didn't think you were pointing fingers MM.

I agree totally that anti-semitism is ALIVE and well...and growing again the further we get from WWII.

Well because oddly enough Jews had plans of their own since the begining, just do a little un-biased reading in the depths of the history books (the one-sided history books dont count) and you will see many interesting facts, for instance, Jews played a huge role in the sale of African Slaves to the West, In Ghana which at the time was a major slave port, Jews owned and operated the Slave Castles, to this day you can see the Jewish stars that were carved & emblazoned on the doors. Just look through-out history, many major cultures/religions of the world have suffered similar oppression and hardships, So you cannot cry about your peoples history, or think your people dont share the blame. Currently those moslems that you hate so much are feeling oppression & brutality all across the globe. Every corner of the earth has waged a so called "war on terror" they have painted such a picture that the word terrorist only refers to moslems, and still it manages to be the second fastest growing religion on earth. I do not like to get into details or stereotype, but when u said " put aside our differences and come together as humans" I couldnt help but think, about that beacon of Democracy, Israel: come together as humans... do humans carry out missile attacks on cars in the middle of a crowded marketplace? Do humans let their army shoot and attack ambulances and emergency vehicles (2447 incidents so far*ICRC*) do humans allow 65-80% of the people shot by their army to be under the age of 18? Do humans allow generations of crops and olive trees to be destroyed by their army just cause the ownersof that land were of a different religion? Do humans allow the destruction of a families home because one of the family members is a suspected criminal? In conclusion everyone is going through this hatred, its not a blame game, we let ignorance cloud our mind and plague our actions, finger pointing wont cut it, the spiral of violence & death will just keep spinning.

I know what you mean Elie and that can be very disappointing!

It's becoming a mean place to live in these days. I made the comment recently that we're somehow repeating ourselves, hate crimes is one of those things that is being repeated and becoming more rampant. It's horrible that we cannot get past this part of our inhumanity. I've read about it and seen it on television news, it's happening to anyone who is non-white.

It's becoming an extreme reality and one that I wish would not be. I don't know if there's hope for us, deep down I know there is but at the moment it doesn't seem to be.

We can't however for a minute let people who hate win. We in this world who know that it is wrong and that it is time this type of cruelty be banished should not give up hope that it will end. It has to or our world will blow up, then where would we be?!

must be all comfortable to be a secret anti-Semite, while posing as a scholar. No where did I say Jews were noble or guilt free from the evil deed that they have perpetrated.
All I did was state some facts about how Jews are treated today> But I can see that telling the truth about how jews are treated today would get a jew haters panties in a bunch.

Seriously, the only gripe I hold against the state of Israel is the attack on the Liberty during the fightin' with Egypt.

Dear lord, I love yiddish. Yiddish and kosher pickles. Yiddish and kosher pickles and kosher salt. Yeah. And bagels. And I love the singing at synagogue, but I'm baptist, so I don't get out there much, ya know?
