"Considering that black men are being killed by police at the same rate as they were lynched in the era of Jim Crow..."

What?

Sure. Any Jew who owned a slave and is still alive should have to pay that slave assuming that slave is still alive. If neither party still exists everyone should just get over it.

Black people owe white people trillions of dollars — they ruined a whole bunch of perfectly good cities. A big fat Reparations check would be most welcome. Thanks.

I should go into German stores and demand everything on the shelf because of the Holocaust..I never hear anyone in the media demanding Germans pay reparations for what they did to the Jewish people

We’re not guilty of the sins of our great-great-great grandfathers. No one is.

“One hundred fifty years after the end of American slavery, many American Jews, comfortably ensconced in mainstream white society, are again mindful, above all, of promoting their own interests.”

This guy is an idiot.

I am weary of Jew bashing-—and I’m not Jewish.

Twenty trillion dollars of wealth redistribution has occurred in this country over the last 40+ years,a fair portion of that money having come from Jews.I don't think Jews are any more liable for “reparations” than anyone else.

This is like saying that one-eyed, one-legged parrot owners need to answer for piracy on the high seas.

Go after the Muslims first. They are still trading in slaves.

I guess you missed all those lawsuits various Jewish groups have brought against the German government?

The author is a contributor to some of the most liberal rags out there, the Forward (a holdover from Socialist Yiddish speaking refugees from Russia) included. He probably couldn't distinguish between tefillin and toffee, as far as his Jewish knowledge or even allegiance (provided he is even a Jew). To take a word of what he says as truth would be like believing your pediatrician when he told you, "This won't hurt a bit" before giving you a shot in your rear end.

I wouldn't waste any time at all trying to make sense of his drivel.

I wish Obammie the Commie could understand that.

When he said “I don’t support reparations because they don’t go far enough,” he was essentially tipping his hand that he was going to do anything and everything to completely fleece white, middle class America and to turn their earnings and the value of their assets over to the blacks.

He won’t be happy until the white middle class feels completely and totally enslaved to debt and to working to prop up the welfare state.

Only when white, middle-class America has been reduced to that level of slavery, will he then impose reparations upon them, as the final coup de grace.

He is seriously, one sick, evil, bigoted MFer. His body hosts the souls of Hitler and Stalin and Mussolini.

What a crying shame that blacks can’t see this but lift him up as their savior.

LOL!

Even my Sioux ancestors must be laughing at this particular revisionist history attempt!

Are we now supposed to believe Jewish people invented human slavery, and are responsible for the USA Civil War?

ROTFLMAO!

Shouldn’t the Egyptians be paying the Jews? With 3,000 years of compound interest that could be tidy sum. Put that in with Al Bore’s new building scam.

You can be weary of Jew-bashing, but you need to distinguish between true anti-Semitism and objecting to the leftism of many secular Jews.

The same Jews who claim to be for black independence and respecting black culture, are the same leftist Jews who are keeping black Americans on the DNC plantation with their socialist policies and their collectivist mentality.

Calling these secular Jews out is not anti-Semitism. It is simply denouncing one of many masks that socialists/statists/communists hide behind in order to further their anti-religious and anti-Biblical ideology.

(As a Jew) I see Richard Kreitner do what Richard Kreitner does best: semi-scholarship, slandering the dead (who do not sue,) and generally doing what “culturally Jewish” people in America do today: bash Israel, Jews, the South, and America in their secular moral-relativist trust-fund fueled publicity seeking rain dance, sprinkled with shoddy historical references. Richard Kreitner is trying to atone, in volume, for never have been able to defend a thesis. What he couldn’t do in college the Jew-Clown does now for a meager living - bashing his ancestors by ascribing his own faults to them - to the applause of his aging WASP employers.
