>>Police have increased their presence at Jewish sites in both New York and Washington
A nutjob shoots up a Jewish site in Kansas and we protect NYC and DC.
Oh yeah. In flyover country, Jews (and Gentiles) can defend themselves!
Our Secretary of Defense hates Israel, and our Secretary of State is doing everything in his power to back Israel into a corner, where her only option is destruction or war.
What utter nonsense. A mad man with a sick belief structure does not equate to massive anti-Semitism in the rest of the country or its citizens. There are those who have such hatred in their hearts but that is not the majority or even a sizable minority. This is the rank insanity of those stoking the flames of hatred
Sounds like a case could be made for more concealed carry permits to be issued.
Oh dear God! My heart aches at this news. Christians should volunteer to escort them home and vow to stand with them against evil. To do less is to deny Christ. We are to be His hands and feet; let us also be His sight and strength to protect the Chosen People because we love them as Christ loves us. Let us be servants to Christ!
Yes, a real life Damian Thorne. An individual who is Hellspawn can’t be expected to have a legitimate birth certificate!
Sad, but there is a biger problem with the members of the ROP whose ideology considers Jews less than pigs.
This is sad, but in our Obamanation, no one should walk alone. Aspects of our culture have reverted back to gang tribalism. Our continued inability to tell the truth about what inclusion and tolerance are doing to us makes it impossible to solve problems. We have created a militant police state to deal with a militant, criminal culture.
The blessing to mankind promised by God has come true in the immensely valuable role played by Jews over their 4,000 year history in civilizing the world, in spite of the unbelievable hardships they have also endured.
With few exceptions, wherever they lived they were persecuted. Being "chosen" created an ethos wherein high achievement is treasured, as is the notion of tikkun olam, meaning chosen by God for the special responsibility of helping "repair a broken world" for the benefit of humanity.
Jews are so few in number that in a room of 1,000 people representing the world's population, only two would be Jewish, comprising a mere 1/4 of 1%. Yet they have won 29 percent of Nobel prizes since 1950, after the Holocaust destroyed a third of their numbers. They have been awarded 20 percent of the Pulitzer Prizes for nonfiction. One-fourth of the Fields Medals winners are Jews.
Of the 267 individual inventors on the Encyclopedia Britannica list of "Great Inventors,” more than 13 were Jews, Probably one-fourth of the greatest photographers of all time have been Jews, as have 10 percent of the world's great master architects. They have created nearly two-thirds of Broadway's longest running musicals and of movie directors who earned Oscars, 38 percent were Jews.
No other group of people donates as much to charity. More than 90 percent of their donations went to secular causes in support of education, health care and medicine, arts, culture, and the humanities.
Much better advice would come from the organization Jews For The Preservation of Firearms Ownership.
Imagine two Orthodox men, walking down the street, only to find themselves approached by a dozen “youths” intent on savaging them.
But unlike the typical event, both men pull out .45 ACPs. Suddenly the menacing “yoots” decide they would rather be at home watching The Brady Bunch reruns. The day is saved, and two Orthodox Jewish men continue on their way, unmolested.
What’s not to like?
So what’s the current count on American pogroms this weekend? How fear-stoked do we need to be?
I have a question to ask posters.
“Why this HATE against the Jewish people” ?
Thank-you for your responses and God Bless.
