Our World: The convenient war against the Jews

jpost.com — The anti-Semitic belief that all Jews are Zionists and therefore all Jews are fair game in the war against Israel - itself simply another round of the age-old war against the Jews - allows anti-Semites to obfuscate the fact that their anti-Israel rhetoric is simply warmed over Jew-hatred. People like Iranian leaders Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

  • Stevanoski, on 10/09/2008, -4/+30"So anti-Semitic leaders have disguised their appeal to base instinct by pretending that they are actually appealing to sublime aspirations. In the case of the Nazis for instance, Adolf Hitler and Josef Goebbels appealed to Germanic pride and love for the Fatherland. Today, the Left appeals to people’s aspirations for peace and justice. It is only by permitting and indeed enabling Jews to die and the Jewish state to be destroyed that “peace” can be secured and the Palestinians can receive “justice.”"
    • RawSense2004, on 10/09/2008, -1/+10I only wish they would find God's wrath before they are permitted to do anymore destruction.

      Let me say this straight. THE PEOPLE WHO INTEND HARM AND DEATH are the people I am talking about. Do not be an idiot (anyone who wants to declare their hatred against me). Only idiots consider the whole group as a target when a wild, rabid dog is the one who attacked. You only seek that one.

      I hate having to explain this everytime, but some people just don't care to be reasonable. *sigh*

      Nice comment, and have a blessed day.
    • Hetman, on 10/09/2008, -5/+2Religions are ***** up. How can someone come to the conclusion that peace and justice means war and hatred. If anything religions not government was Orwells inpsiration for double speak. I love the word holy war. Seriously could they come up with anything better than that? It just sounds so nice. Holy war.
  • btgoss, on 10/09/2008, -16/+7I do not agree with the basic premise that being against Israel politically means that you are an Anti-Semite.

    I wish America would not support Israel as much as it does. I don't think we should support any country that much. We can no longer afford it.

    Islamic extremism is no longer tied to the existence of Israel as it's sole reason for being. The rest of the world has become a target, and should Israel disappear from the face of the Earth tomorrow, I know they will not stop.

    So we need to have some relationship with Israel, but what appears to be our blind support should stop.
    • legolas68, on 10/09/2008, -0/+11It is a mutual support that cannot have a price tag on it. The United States needs a strong ally. Especially in that region! If you know the extremists won't stop with the destruction of Israel then why don't you throw your entire support to the defense of Israel? Your logic is flawed and I should hope that you would one day reconsider it.
  • 4Christ, on 10/09/2008, -6/+14And if Israel is destroyed, the West won't be able to depend on us Jews to fight and die for them anymore. They will be all alone. What this person wrote in this article sounded so right and so true to my heart. And? It made me feel ashamed. And so very,very sad.
    What this person above, btgoss, has stated is wrong. I can tell by what he has said ( or her) that they are not "people of Faith" If they were they would know better than to say such a thing. America should never stop supporting Israel. Wait! We already have!. There is no way this tiny country can withstand --hey wait a MINUTE!--what am I SAYING!--there is EVERY way->The Battle of Gideon!!-( to name but one!!) -God is with Israel. However the same will no longer be true fro America--(IF it still is and that's debatable--look around you---) should we just say "be gone with you-you are a hindrance! A thorn in my side. God is the GOD OF ISRAEL. --YHVH---And the God of all. Only we would never have known Him except for the nation of Israel's Gift to us. Tribe of Judah==Jesus Christ. It is only because they rejected Him as Messiah that we had the opportunity to know Him. Of course nothing happens outside of His permissive Will. NOTHING. The Palestinians have been whining about this and that while all the time they have been murdering Jews. All over the world. I knew about Yassar Arafat--the Grand Mufti's relative that he spread even more antisemitic hatred through. Which he learned at the feet? Knees? Well you figure it out- of the occult Hitler and his murderous fiends God Blessed America long ago-- look what we have become. A nation filled with perverts. Who do you think is the "source" influencing this "nation"? It is NOT the Creator God of Heaven and Earth and all that they contain. It is the "god" of this world. Why? Because people are choosing him unaware of what they are doing. They think it's "all good".. Or do you surmise that God's protective hand is it still over us? It must be to a certain extent. But I wonder how long that will remain true? If we don't repent as a nation and return to Him and the Principles--which ARE Godly Principles. If we do NOT? Siranara baby. In other words> America, as a friend and I were discussing earlier--is not even in the Bible--There is a reason for that. Maybe someone with ingenuity should come up with a website called repentamericastand4Israel.com
    I know there are things written in the Word of God that must happen because they are already written. It is the plan of God.While they are I will remember this about Him; He is Holy and Righteous. Slow to anger. Quick to forgive if you are His. But there is a Wrath to come upon all unrepentant souls. And nations//countries.Therefore nothing He does is questionable. Not that I would!!1
    As for me? I am standing with the chosen people of God. The seed of Abraham. Which I am by faith? But they are by blood.
    • RawSense2004, on 10/09/2008, -0/+12And God said to Abram

      To those who bless you
      I will bless
      To those who curse you
      I will curse.

      In Jeremiah there is a verse that states we must repent of our sins, petition our Lord, and He will heal our land. Not until this is done will He lift us up again. It is an individual duty, not governmental. Thank you for your words.
    • Hetman, on 10/09/2008, -5/+1We are on the other side of the world, with the strongest military in the world. We do not need Isreal fighting for us.
    • 911ArtStudent, on 10/10/2008, -2/+2Keep worshipping at the feet of those who follow the teachings of the pharisses which are inscribed in the Talmud. You are a heretic. You worship the Jewish people instead of Jesus. You should be bearing witness to these people instead of mindlessly worshipping them.
  • radiofrequency, on 10/09/2008, -4/+20Israel is economically and diplomatically the staunchest ally America has in the world. There's no other nation that has remained so steadfast in its support for America as a nation and so loyal to its people. One cannot cite a single occurrence in which America cast a vote against a member of the G8 in the UN without Israel voting with America.

    One needs to realize that every Arab nation has its own vote in the UN, yet they consistently vote together - against America's interests - in unity as if they were merely a single country composed of multiple of states.

    Those who attack Israel are, indeed, attacking America.
    • Hetman, on 10/09/2008, -4/+3Maybe one of the reasons the rest of the middle east dislike America is because we support Israel. Why be Ally's with one nation if it makes the rest of the region hate us?

      There, fixed it for ya ;)
  • thepalineffect, on 10/09/2008, -5/+10Thank God for Israel.
  • Hetman, on 10/09/2008, -6/+4I do not hate anyone. I just do not believe in foreign aid for anyone. I do not believe America should be giving out foreign aid to any nation this includes Israel. And anyways Israel has one of the best army's in the world. They also have nuclear weapons. They do not need us helping them anymore.

    Israeli Bestseller Breaks National Taboo
    Idea of a Jewish people invented, says historian by Jonathan Cook
    http://www.antiwar.com/orig/cook.php?articleid=135 ...
    No one is more surprised than Shlomo Sand that his latest academic work has spent 19 weeks on Israel's bestseller list – and that success has come to the history professor despite his book challenging Israel's biggest taboo.

    Dr. Sand argues that the idea of a Jewish nation – whose need for a safe haven was originally used to justify the founding of the state of Israel – is a myth invented little more than a century ago.

    An expert on European history at Tel Aviv University, Dr. Sand drew on extensive historical and archaeological research to support not only this claim but several more – all equally controversial.

    In addition, he argues that the Jews were never exiled from the Holy Land, that most of today's Jews have no historical connection to the land called Israel and that the only political solution to the country's conflict with the Palestinians is to abolish the Jewish state.

    The success of When and How Was the Jewish People Invented? looks likely to be repeated around the world. A French edition, launched last month, is selling so fast that it has already had three print runs.
  • ratcatcher2, on 10/09/2008, -6/+3To all the good Jews that are not Zionists.

    Spitting off the Zionist and saying yes, I'm Jewish and I might even live there but I'm not a Zionist, is NOT acceptable any longer. The game is up.

    You did not play your part in preventing the Zionist become more and more fascist. It would always have been easier to effect change if you had played your part earlier. The Pontius Pilate trick isn't enough any more. If you are not to be tarred with the one brush as the myth-making Zionist then you must lead and not hid in their coattails.
  • 4Christ, on 10/10/2008, -5/+3911ArtStudent---Disturbed soul aren't you? You have no idea what you are talking about. With your scripture quotes. It's not even referring directly to The nation or people Of Israel by blood but all sinners and a disobedient Church in Revelation which Christ addresses.. You are quoting yet misleadingly. Purposefully. No-you haven't a Godly clue--Ungodly now--yes- But Godly?--NONE.
    • 911ArtStudent, on 10/10/2008, -2/+1Keep worshipping at the feet of those who follow the teachings of the pharisees and the talmud which teaches that Jesus is boiling in a vat of his own excrement in hell. You are a heretic.
  • bernk1, on 10/10/2008, -4/+7ratcatcher2 - "To all the good Jews that are not Zionists." Excuse me, but the Jews don't need someone like you defining what constitutes "good Jews..." That would be like me saying "To all the good Irish that are not babbling idiots." And learn that there is no such thing as "the Zionist." There are all shades of Zionists, from left to right, from secular to religious. We've gone down that route before, and you know it. You are blinded by your hatred for all things -- "Zionist".
  • SAR2009, on 10/18/2008, -0/+1Clearly there are those who would resurrect the ghettos and The Holocaust with glee if given a chance. We must never allow them that chance again.
