“What will it take for the comatose Jews in America and elsewhere to wake up and fight back?”

Ah, but that’s the brilliance of anti-semitism. By accusing the Jews of secret plots, which cannot be proved and therefore cannot be disproved either, the anti-semites set up a system by which Jews are punished for contradicting anti-semites in any way, and punished more if they passively allow the anti-semites to spew their hate unchallenged. The only way to break that cycle is to fight back violently and with overwhelming force against the slightest offense until the anti-semites are too weak and terrified to continue, but the Jewish culture forbids such reckless behavior.

My parents survived the Holocaust, the vast majority of their relatives and friends did not.
As a child I could not believe the horror of what happened, I attributed the slaughter of the Jews to the crazy Germans and wondered how the rest of Europe could stand by and do so little to prevent the barbarity of what happened. Sadly, as an adult I realize that anti-Semitism was not eradicated as guilt for the slaughter of the innocents, but now like a plague, has morphed back to life again, this time fed by the psychotic logic of the Arabs, and their left wing useful idiots. What will it take for the comatose Jews in America and elsewhere to wake up and fight back? Specifically, here in the USA we need to tell the #$%^^ democrat party to go to hell!

And the Muslims still complain about “occupied” Andulasia.

BTW, this should increase your respect for Sting. Once upon a time he wouldn’t tour Israel. But in recent years in conjunction with his pal Garry Kasparov he actually visited Elkana (a “settlement” in the Shomron) because its elementary school won a chess tournament.

You do have to feel bad for Leonard Cohen though.

He’s apparently not anti-Israel enough.

Regarding the last point, it’s interesting to note that Spain never needs to take this kind of treatment when its own citizens hail from the Spanish-occupied Basque territories or from the lands they annexed from Morocco. Hypocrisy, they name is Spain (and Europe in general).

Yep. Deleted the passage about Swiss banks. Thanks, Gerry. (I always mix those two nations up. I’m just one of those ugly Americans, I guess.)

If I read this correctly, you’ve mixed up the Swedish and Swiss governments.

Not that either one has clean hands when it comes to WW2.
