Conceptions of the Muslim as Enemy Conceptions of the Jew as Enemy.
This was the title of a conference held on December 8 at Berlins Center for Research on Anti-Semitism. The stated aim of the conference was to employ the template of anti-Semitism in order to analyze an allegedly new form of kindred prejudice: Islamophobia.
The announcement of the conference sparked a raging controversy in Germany. It has been all the more intense due to the fact that the Berlin-based center is the most well-known and influential research institution of its kind in Germany and, arguably, in all of Europe...

Yeah there have always been lots of brutal Jewish theocracies all over the world who advocate the destruction of a single tiny Islamic state who just want to live in peace. I can totally see this comparison. /sarc

When was the last time anyone heard of a self-detonating Jew?

The term Islamophobia has to stop becaue it is not an irrational fear of Muslims. Its a justified and informed hatred of everything Islamic.

For some odd reason I just don’t trust Germans to make accurate analogies to the Holocaust.

Seems they are still practicing their antisemitism by even making a comparison between the behavior of Jews in various societies to the behavior of Muslims.

Yea. How about Germans take the next 500 years off from making dramatic social proclamations.

No, they are stuck on “ we must be fair and partial and not judge” because of their past with Nazism...

Are these people really this stupid?
They don’t know what they are doing - Islam is pure evil and should be feared.

Worldwide there are more Arab Semites than there are Jewish Semites.
Semites are a sub-race of people from Southwest Africa, Abraham being the traditional father of the Semitic tribes (both Arabs and Jews).
All the world knows this but Americans. Big deal.
Christ was born as a Semite, although not in the patrimonial sense of course (a major point), which is an obsession with the Semites.
But those Pharisees sure hated Him. Upset their bicameral weltanschaung.

I’m so glad that the Islamics are not fanactical anti-semites or anti-American or anti-Christian.

The announcement of the conference sparked a raging controversy in Germany. Germany systematically murdered millions of educated, productive, and non-violent citizens and replaced them (a few decades later) with millions of terrorist-supporting Moon-god worshippers. Great thinking there, Krauts.

A phobia is an intense, unrealistic fear, which can interfere with the ability to socialize, work, or go about everyday life, that is brought on by an object, event or situation. I don't really see how the term can properly be applied to Islam, as those guys really are dangerous. Next they'll be comparing "Naziphobia" to anti-Semitism.

Come to think of it I cant even remember a Jew calling the US the great Satan, cutting off the head of an infidel, or flying a plane into a building. I guess I haven’t been paying attention to the right Jews.
