A New Strain of Anti-Semitism is Spreading

Who recently said: "These Jews started 19 Crusades. The 19th was World War (1). Why? Only to build Israel."

Some holdover Nazi?

Hardly. It was former Prime Minister Necmettin Erbakan of Turkey, a NATO ally. He went on to claim that the Jews -- whom he refers to as "bacteria" -- controlled China, India and Japan, and ran the United States.

Who alleged: "The Arabs who were involved in 9/11 cooperated with the Zionists, actually. It was a cooperation. They gave them the perfect excuse to denounce all Arabs."

A conspiracy nut?

Actually, it was former Democratic U.S. Sen. James Abourezk of South Dakota. He denounced Israel on a Hezbollah-owned television station, adding: "I marveled at the Hezbollah resistance to Israel. . . . It was a marvel of organization, of courage and bravery."

And finally, who claimed at a United Nations-sponsored conference that democratic Israel was "much worse" than the former apartheid South Africa, and that it "undermines the international community's reaction to global warming"? A radical environmentalist wacko?

Again, no. It was Clare Short, a member of the British parliament. She was a secretary for international development under Prime Minister Tony Blair.

Not all Jewish people are liberal, you know.

A lot of conservative Jewish people are tired of being sterotyped as “liberal” by idiots, in fact.

Because “Chosen” is not necesarily a good thing.

“Chosen” = “Picked”

Sometimes being “chosen” means drawing the black bean.

Yes there are some Jewish conservatives. I do not deny that.

2000, only 21% of Jewish-Americans voted for Bush.
2004 was the highest ever at 24% for Bush.
last Mid term election was the lowest at 12%.

Other polls are saying up to 26%... but no matter how you look at it the Jewish community overwhelmingly by at least 2/3's votes democrats. No other group other then blacks vote like this.

Bad Math
