A growing number of Israelis and foreign Jewish groups are expressing concern over the anti-Semitic flavor of some of the "Occupy Wall St." economic protests in the US. From the 13th century expulsion of Englands Jews to the 19th century Russian pogroms to the Nazi Holocaust, sour economic conditions have historically formed the backdrop of rising anti-Semitism.(snip) Israel's Yediot Ahronot newspaper called the anti-Semitic outbursts ''hard to watch,'' and an Israeli commenter said, ''It's just like pre-World War II Nazi Germany. You think blood libels can't happen in America?''

Agree that the OWS movement should be called what they are; but, of course, they have the “right” to “demonstrate”. Let ‘em demonstrate and create Crap City EVERYWHERE until the American people beg for the police to remove them. - I’m not a big shot, so little that I say carries much weight; but I’ll call ‘em what they are - JEW HATERS (as their signs proclaim). I believe I’ll be asked about it in the Judgement if I don’t. My Daddy fought in WWII, hard combat, fighting ever harder up through Italy into Germany as soon as word came down in the ranks the horror that was being done to the Jews.
When they got to the concentration camps, some prisoners were quoted as saying, “They cursed when they saw us; and to us their curses were like PRAYERS.”
Yes. Thank the Lord for Conservative radio programs and for Him allowing them to exist; despite the Democrats’ attempts to muzzle them!
I know you are satirizing them, but satire has its sensible limits.
I was in Zuccotti Park for three days earlier during the “Occupation”. I disagree that the group, or even the majority of the group, is anti-Semitic. I witnessed a man carry around a sign at the park for two days which read “Wall Street is Satan”. When he added “and Jews” to his sign, he was quickly surrounded by protesters who held their signs in front of his and claimed that he did not represent the “Occupation”.
My dad also saw newly liberated Nazi concentration camps during his service as an American infantryman. I've never heard that American troops at liberated concentration camps cursed at the prisoners. Judging from word of mouth stories I'm familiar with, Gen. Eisenhower would have made them pay a price for that if he knew it was happening.
You’re a complete putz.
Sure, most American Jewish people are liberal.
Big surprise with people like you on the conservatie side making sure we aren’t welcome here.
Nice video showing the anti-semitism here.

I am a very active Republican and I travel to different events and it appears my lot in life is explaining to Republicans the reason Jews vote Democrat. But I always tell them that those days are over... Obama has scared them straight! I will be spending the week at the Western Republican leadership conference in Las Vegas. I better practice my spiel! Btw, watch the presidential debate on Tuesday, you may see me asking a question! But don’t tell anyone! ;)
What we need is more hillbilly Jews living out here in the sticks.
What about the Los Angeles video with a speaker demanding the Jews be thrown out of the country to cheers from the crowd? What about the many other videos across the internet with Jew-hating rants from "Occupy" protestors saying exactly the same thing? And, for that matter, what about the organizers' comments on the record calling for the destruction of Israel?
Sorry, your testimony rings hollow- even if it were true.
To cripplecreek: That's a great graphic! The Nazi icons and Fractur font leave no doubt about the meaning. Also, you've left no doubt about the more modern pop cultural origins — you don't have to be a Prince fan to recognize it (I'm not).
To justiceseeker93: The graphic is clearly intended to insult the 99%ers (by telling vicious truths about them). If any of them were stupid enough to actually use the graphic on a sign — that would be great. It would make it clear what evil lurks within. (I wouldn't expect to ever see photos of the signs appear anywhere in the MSM.)
The Swastika in a gear is a DAF (German Labor Front) symbol to give it the union seal of approval.
Even better! Thanks for the info.
I understood that to mean the American troops cursed the monsters who could do that to human beings, not the prisoners.
It does seem more than a little reminiscent of the anti-Jewish agitation leading up to Kristallnacht.
Maybe you have a valid point there. I'm not sure what was meant by that statement.
According to a story that's been passed down from people on the scene, Eisenhower was so incensed by what he saw at Buchenwald that, flouting US military law, he ordered at least one captured German officer who played a big role in the atrocities there to be summarily executed by firing squad.
After all, what's the worst that could happen.....
I think you're right and I think Israel knows it. Arab Spring is becoming Aryan Autumn.
Aside from the usual suspects, there is also a Canadian organization named Adbusters. Based in Victoria, BC, they are an ultraleft group that publishes a magazine with an anticapitalist theme. But they've also been linked to anti-Israel and antisemitic propaganda.
NO! NO! The American soldiers DID NOT curse at the PRISONERS in the camps. They CURSED at the NAZIS who they had either just killed or who had hightailed it out of there just minutes before the Americans had arrived at the camps. -
The American soldiers cursed because they COULD NOT FATHOM that any supposedly civilized culture could have treated any human being so horribly. It was beyond any decent person’s comprehension.
One of the founders of Adbusters is a Soros spokesperson. Naturally, she denies that Soros supports Adbusters. Do you need any more proof that Soros is behind it? (Only being half serious, and half sarcastic here.)
