The Actions of Israel do not Give you the Excuse to Be Anti-Semetic

The recent killings in Gaza have again helped to bring to the surface a level of prejudice towards Jews.

What is quite apparent is that there is a section of Jewish people who are equally disgusted with the actions of Israel.

Regardless, of this, sadly some Muslims do tend to become more anti-Jewish during these testing times.

Some people may not like this to be stated so bluntly but let us face the facts.

Ramadan or no Ramadan the evening discussions centre upon conspiracy theories about how Jewish people are controlling the British media and are intent on burying the war crimes of Israel.

Britain and the Western powers continue to follow the orders of an elite bunch of Jews…and so the claims go.

The problem is, this feeds upon that anti-Jewish propaganda and helps to create more stereotypes in young people’s minds.

Blatantly racist comments about Jews are washed under the carpet because Israel is killing women and children.

To be anti-Israel does not mean one must be anti-Jewish. We have found it difficult at times to differentiate this.

Yes, there are a number of Muslims who will continue to make this distinction whenever they are faced with an ignorant personality. But there are also those will not.

These pictures are shared by Muslim organisations but in many respects the message doesn’t seem to get across to some people.

In the middle of another brutal Israeli offensive against the Palestinians, it is almost impossible to state anything else than the common theme.

Ramadan has only heightened religious emotions. Some Muslims feel we should be forgiven for being able to be racist because Israel is killing people in such great numbers.

It isn’t right though is it? You can’t expect one rule for yourself and then another for everyone else.

The crimes may be the most deplorable and the silence from sections of the media and politicians may be quite shameful but it is always important to maintain a certain level of respect.

Anti-Jewish feelings are equally disgusting as those who hold anti-Muslim feelings.

Time to deal with it.

IOW: Israel's self defense doesn't give the world he right to hate them...

Hmmm, yeah...I guess...

(Real) answer: "As if... We (Hamas and (most) Arabs in particular, the world in general) don't need a reason or excuse to hate Israel and the Jews."

By the way, the headline misspelling is from the source.

These Islamists and Islamic Terrorists really hate the fact that Israel does defend itself and is capable in defending itself.

Just disregard the fact that the Musloids are the aggressors. Focus on the body count and pretend Israel is engaged in unprovoed attacks.

For Jewhaters, Muslim or not, it is an excuse, not a reason. Though overt antisemitism is becoming fashionable again in Europe.

What is there to be disgusted with? What? What?

You've got evil blood-thirsty savages in the Palestinians who think nothing of carving up and mutilating Jewish babies and children. On the other hand, you have Israeli Jews who value life no matter the race, religion or political view - Jews who try to avoid bloodshed.

What is there to be disgusted with, that the Jews don't willingly lay down to die? That happened in the past, but no longer. Disgust should be heaped on the Palestinian arab savages, because their deeds demand it.

Musloids are the aggressors.
+++++++
When a group tunnels underneath your land and come out to kill you, it’s an undeniable truth who the aggressors are.

What is wrong with what they are doing?

The world would be better off if all that murdering scum in the Gaza strip was exterminated - every last Hamas breeding Muslim terrorist one of them.

I want to encourage ALL FREEPERS to jump all over this Facebook page . It belongs to Ann Wright , a close associate of Medea Benjamin and Code Pink. Wright presents herself as a former U.S. Army Col. (R) and is one of the biggest organizers of anti-Israel / pro-Hamas rallies and initiatives in the U.S. Wright also goes along on every single Gaza blockade busting attempt . I believe she could be a paid Iranian agent . The U.S. does nothing to rein her in , so perhaps the least we could do is go after her Facebook organizing site ?

Anti-Semites don’t need excuses - they need opportunities.

That’s a fact. Myself, I do independent contract work for Israeli companies. It’s time to start fighting the Soros/Nazi BDS trolls here in America. These neo-Nazi scum, paid for by Soros, need to be be confronted and stomped into the concrete.
