At one time USSR had a law against antisemitism, punishable by hanging.

Problem is they tend to hang the Jew that "caused" it. Russian anti-semitism is pretty bad too, and it is not necessarily the Muslims at the root of it.

Maybe the Jews need to learn how to make friends with others.

What is that supposed to mean? Are you saying Jews are not friendly?

"This increase is extremely alarming. The transfer of tensions in the Middle East to the streets of Britain has resulted in an unprecedented level of anti-Semitic incidents,"

Immigration reform--wake up Western World. Phe pig Islamist are amoung us.
Jew's and Christian's need to be alert.

i think they had an immigration reform issue very recently hopefully they will fix the problem and police it more rigiriously to stop the attacks or allow the people to defend themselves more effectively at least.

Or they could move to Israel. The IDF doesn't issue statements about "anti-Semitic" incidents, they just pound the perpetrators into the pavement.

<< Waiting for the "moderate Muslims" to condemn these attacks on Jews.

Waiting.

Waiting.

Waiting. >>

Try waiting, also, for "regular" britons to condemn them.

While you wait, you might read some Willy Shakespeare and Charley Dickens and/or about what the British were up to while Hitler was murdering Europe's Jews and/or about the attitudes and activities of .... say .... Colonel Thomas Edward Lawrence or Chrissy "Hong-Kong" Patten and/or "hrh" Charles Philip Arthur George Windsor.

Found these quotes. could not comment on their accuracy.

GEORGE WASHINGTON: They (the Jews) work more effectively against us, than the enemy's armies. They are a hundred times more dangerous to our liberties and the great cause we are engaged in... It is much to be lamented that each state, long ago, has not hunted them down as pest to society and the greatest enemies we have to the happiness of America. (From The Maxims of George Washington by A. A. Appleton & Co.)

BENJAMIN FRANKLIN: I fully agree with General Washington, that we must protect this young nation from an insidious influence and impenetration. The menace, gentlemen, is the Jews.

In whatever country Jews have settled in any great number, they have lowered its moral tone; depreciated its commercial integrity; have segregated themselves and have not been assimilated; have sneered at and tried to undermine the Christian religion upon which that nation is founded, by objecting to its restrictions; have built up a state within the state; and when opposed have tried to strangle that country to death financially, as in the case of Spain and Portugal.

For over 1,700 years, the Jews have been bewailing their sad fate in that they have been exiled from their homeland, as they call Palestine. But gentlemen, did the world give it to them in fee simple, they would at once find some reason for not returning. Why? Because they are vampires, and vampires do not live on vampires. They cannot live only among themselves. They must subsist on Christians and other people not of their race.

If you do not exclude them from these United States, in their Constitution, in less than 200 years they will have swarmed here in such great numbers that they will dominate and devour the land and change our form of government, for which we Americans have shed our blood, given our lives our substance and jeopardized our liberty.

If you do not exclude them, in less than 200 years our descendants will be working in the fields to furnish them substance, while they will be in the counting houses rubbing their hands. I warn you, gentlemen, if you do not exclude Jews for all time, your children will curse you in your graves.

Jews, gentlemen, are Asiatics, let them be born where they will nor how many generations they are away from Asia, they will never be otherwise. Their ideas do not conform to an American's, and will not even thou they live among us ten generations. A leopard cannot change its spots. Jews are Asiatics, are a menace to this country if permitted entrance, and should be excluded by this Constitutional Convention. (This statement was recorded in the diary of Charles Cotesworth Pinckney, a delegate from South Carolina.)

THOMAS JEFFERSON: Dispersed as the Jews are, they still form one nation, foreign to the land they live in. (From 'THE AMERICANS' by D. Boorstin)

Where the hell where you when the Jews were getting killed in WW2.

You were two years late.

Anti-Semitism is everywhere:

http://www.adl.org/anti_semitism_domestic/

You try to paint England as a Racist country.
What about America's past? You are hardly angels.

Modern England and Modern America are dedicated to eradicate racism.

The reply was to Brian Allen and I simply googled the words American and anti-semitic and put up some links. I did go back to the site afterwards and realised it was not a good one but would be interested to know if these were factual quotes.

He seems to think Britain stood by when Germany was gassing the Jews and others when we were at war with them at the time, a war which America did not enter till much later so I do not know what kind of half arsed point he was trying to make. As for his comment on Dickens, Dickens felt very bad after Oliver Twist and did write a book that was positive towards Jews but it was not very good and as such I hvae no idea what it was called. He seems to think that everyone in Britian is anti-semitic. I was merely trying to show him that every country has their anti-semites and racists.

When you look at Henry Ford and others like him and then look at the burgeoning neo-nazi movement in the US with the Turner Diaries and the like I think it is amazing to take the moral high ground. He clearly has an issue about Britain. All modern country's are trying to stamp out racism and yet instead of focusing on that he makes comments about people who died centuries ago.

I do not think either America or Britain as a whole is racist or anti-semitic and I am happy to stay that way.

Then you might want to think twice about posting them. Just a suggestion.

Another poster has dealt with the Washington quote. I don't recall seeing the Jefferson quote before, but it's out of character with the rest of his public utterances and writings, which include his authorship of the Virginia Act For Establishing Religious Freedom.

The Franklin quote first appeared in a screed by William Dudley Pelley, an avowed National Socialist, in 1934. The alleged source, the diary of South Carolina delegate Charles Pinckney, has never surfaced. From chain letters in the '30s to Internet posts today, the diary has often been claimed to be in the archives of the Franklin Institute -- something the Institute has denied since at least the 1950s.

The Franklin quote -- often labeled the "Franklin Prophecy" -- was more or less debunked right after it was published. But it remains a favorite of bigots, and is actively flogged by the usual suspects.

I'm not accusing anyone here of intentionally promoting anti-semitism, but spreading this sort of falsehood, even with the best of intentions, aids the Nazis in their attempts to claim the Founders as their own.

Well I was at the end of my shift and yet again brian allen decides to claim or imply all Britains since time immemmoriom are anti-semitic so I did not have time to fully check them out.

See post 52 for my reply about the quotes and for my full retort against mr allens anti-brit posting.
