I agree that most efforts to fight antisemitism do more harm than good. I also agree that living a good Jewish life is the best way to fight antisemitism. But what does a good Jewish life look like? The Jewish nation was founded thousands of years ago on two central principles, the supremacy of God and the truth of His covenant. These are the principles that have sustained us as a people and a nation for all these centuries. Our relationship with the Almighty has always been our most powerful asset. We cannot succeed as a people by rebelling against God or casting off his commandments. Rather, to live a full Jewish life, we must accept His authority and dedicate our lives to His service as we swore to do on Mount Sinai. We must fear Him more than we fear our enemies, and trust Him more than we trust our friends. When we cleanse ourselves to the point of making it possible for Him to once again dwell among us, we will have no trouble disposing of our enemies.

Whoever wrote this article needs to be told ' You do not have a clue', to understand anti semitism you do not interview Jews but non-Jews. Make a some attempt to learn what 'rattles-them'. What they object to, hate or dislike. Why not recruit three 2 man teams from 3 foreign nations, and three teams of Americans, Canadian and Australians and send all six teams out asking people why do you hate us? Have some bottom line questions such as 'Do you like and speak to your neighbours, What do you hate about your neighbours, What do you think about immigrants and immigration, Which nations do you admire the most and why? ' With regards to skin colour, eye and hair colour and clothing worn by others what do you hate or admire? If your children were having a birthday party would you invite or bar children from certain groups or religious beliefs. What religion are you and do you truly believe in a God, Jesus, Heaven and Earth, the so called After life, or consider it a load of bunkum. RW Leeds, England.
