Of all the irrational hates out there in the world, one would objectively have to say that antisemitism leads them all. Its seems throughout history to come in as a resounding number one. Top dog ... King of the hill, The gold medal of hatreds. I think that is a truth that no one can deny.
That is really the gist of this wonderful article. It lays out so many other true global concerns but if one made up concern can attack the Jewish state and Jews, it garners world interest and world attention.
It would be far more interesting to me to find out why that is using controlled scientific methods. Why do so many people want to hate this one group that makes up less than 1% of the population and relative to its number contributes more to the world by far than any other group?
My personal and uneducated opinion is that there are three main reasons
1. People want to blame others for their problems .... we love to scapegoat and Jews are a great target.
2. People are jealous of others and Jews overall are quite successful
3. People go after the easiest targets and we are basically the easiest
You really cant change 1 and 2 but you can certainly change 3. The Jews as a people can change from being easy targets to targets you dont want to mess with. The state of Israel is not an easy target. It is strong and it is very much capable of handling itself and militarily has proven that many times over. It is the Diaspora Jew that is the weak target. They are about talk, about debate blah blah blah. Do they know how to fight, to defend themselves physically? No, they dont. They run, they call the police, they write letters but physically, they are the easiest prey.
That is an area that has to change and there are so many ways to change it but it begins with acknowledging the problem and the dire need to address it yesterday. Unfortunately, the only thing our large organizations seem to want to address is DONATIONS! They have their swamp "agendaa" and dont really listen to "outsiders". papa j
You simply can't hate Jews, without hating REALITY and TRUTH! As I grew up in a very, very antisemitistic Society myself, and know all the insides of it!
Myopic obsession I think still doesn’t completely capture the reality. Isn’t that sad? It’s almost like a deranged perseverance of someone with dementia. It’s like we’ve taken an electron microscope and just focused it there. No other place in the universe exists but there. 😢
And none of them can quite grasp that all the deaths (both sides) are something Jews do grieve over. Only certain people (including Jews) celebrate it. And that’s gross and wrong — no matter who does it.
The other topic that isn’t discussed is the massive brainwashing that Palestinians and many, if not most, Muslims go through (but Palestinians especially). In order for peace to exist, that has to be deprogrammed out of their society.
"Police shootings of Blacks? No thanks, let’s talk instead about misuse of authority by Israeli soldiers and cops! In fact, let’s take it a step further and actually blame Israel for police shootings in the United States (a real phenomenon known as the “Deadly Exchange” trope)".
This is one of the most thought-provoking and powerful essays that I have read on this site. Thanks Pat!
Thank YOU Richard.

It's ALWAYS been that way, and always Will be! Because anti-semitism requires an INSANITY and LIE cult!

I hope the world can wake up soon.
Police shootings are not actually a real problem. However, thousands of blacks are murdered by other blacks.

Delightful to know that you think "Police shootings are not actually a real problem."
They aren't. Just BLM claptrap.
