Is There Anywhere Safe to Be a Jew?
Canada Free Press ^ | 11/20/14 | Alan Caruba

Hamas founding document: “Islamic state in Palestine in place of Israel and the Palestinian territories, and the obliteration or dissolution of Israel ... killing the last Jew on earth…”

One might think that being a rabbi praying in a synagogue in an ultra-orthodox neighborhood of Jerusalem, Israel was about as safe as one could get, but you would be wrong.

Jews, no matter where they are, understand they can be attacked and killed for being Jews. It is the price of their Covenant with God (Exodus, Chapter 12). This has been part of the history of Judaism for three millennia. In the last century it manifested itself as a Nazi genocide that killed six million European Jews and in this one it is the continuation of an Islamic war on Israel.

On Tuesday, November 18, two Palestinians, armed with a rifle and butcher knives, killed three American-Israeli rabbis, a British-Israeli rabbi, and a police officer. They injured seven others. The synague isn’t even close to the line that divides the Jewish and Arab sections of the city. In recent months Jerusalem has been the scene of a number of attacks attributed to Muslim anger regarding the desire of Jews to pray on the Temple Mount, a holy site on which a mosque, al-Aksa, was built following the Arab conquest of the city in 637 A.D.

Best place for a Christian is on the Rock that is Christ. Eternally safe.

Since the very first Christians were all Jews, I would say there is a precedent established.

Based on the Presidency of Hussein Obama, I’m not sure that “Jew” will be the only target of persecution in this world. Conservative Christian bitter clingers comes to mind.

Yes. Texas.

I would expand on that and say the US in general. Not anti-semitic Europe and not the Middle East. One could even argue the US is safer than Israel itself.

“Jews, no matter where they are, understand they can be attacked and killed for being Jews. It is the price of their Covenant with God (Exodus, Chapter 12).”

Yet most are liberal beyond contempt and will probably never acknowledge their uniqueness when it comes to the spiritual fight.

The United States is a safe place to be a Jew. For now.

There are many good people in America and in Europe who like Jews and recognize that they are (mostly) good citizens, just as Christians are (mostly) good citizens. Unfortunately, there are a bunch of national socialist and soviet socialist Obama voters who hate Jews in this country, just as there are a bunch of national socialist and soviet socialist European Union voters who hate Jews in Europe and a bunch of antisemitic bigots in the Middle East. It’s a tough time to be a Jew. Again.

In Torah, and hopefully in the US and Israel.

Kinky is a great example. He is such a hoot.

“Obama is to economics as pantyhose is to foreplay.”

Immortal words from one of our favorite sons.

I meant personal safety. We are attacked in both places.
