Well then I guess we should hate everybody.
If you study tribal names, or what people call themselves, they translate to the following:
The People
The Real People
The Chosen People
The Special People
The Real Human Beings
The Civilized Ones
And so on and so forth
What language was it coined in?
But it does raise an interesting point as pertains to the Holocaust. In Denmark, the Danish Jews were almost all saved by their fellow Danes. Now there are many reasons for this including the warning that the Nazi's were planning a roundup and the generally benign way that the Danes were treated by the Nazis ( who considered them to be Aryan brothers who merely needed a bit of time to come around) but another explanation is that the Danes as a whole did not view the jews living in Denmark to be Danish Jews but rather Danes who happened to be jewish.
The other side of the problem is that the Arabs know, biblically, that they are derived from Ishmael, Abraham's illigetmate son that he fathered with his wife's servant girl.
What an excellent, eloquent answer.
I would add to the fact the Bible(Old Testament)explains the Jews as going astray from the word of God. I have noticed every time the Jews disobeyed God they would suffer for their sins. I like thinking of it as the fatted calf.
When the Jews had plenty and life was going well for them they turned their back on God, then the suffering would start again.
Forty years wondering in the desert for disobeying God should have been a good lesson, but apparently not.
Wonder if voting for democrats would count? Abortion, gay rights, anything liberal.
Eloquently stated Fishtalk.
You are so wrong. It's not bagels or kugel.
It's matzah brie! mmmm...
I don't know. BUT, I believe it.
I also take quite literally, the passage that says He (God) will bless those who bless you (Israel) and curse those who curse you (Israel).
I may be a ditz at times, but there's some things you just don't mess with.
David Irving..."Ordinarily he was insane, but he had lucid moments when he was merely stupid."
Heinrich Heine
Jews should ask themselves why they have permitted David Irving to live. He should be killed tonight.
Many jews worry about the lack of "jewishness" in American jews. Lapsed faith and intermarriage is killing judaism in this country. There are alot of jews in this country who are as "religious" as easter and christmas christians.
Low birth numbers are lowering jewish identity right now in the US as well. Successful people tend to have less children. Same thing of course is going on in Japan, Ireland as well.
Jews were hated by the lower classes because Jews were educated when many were not; Jews were merchants and prospered when many did not; they were religious when many were not. It is easy for those seeking power to whip the "have nots" into hating and killing Jews. I urge you to look the Liberals of today who pit the have's against the have not's.
If instead he'd been allowed to wonder around expressing his views, someone may have shot him in the head by now, putting him out of his deranged misery and doing society a huge favor.
You are joking, but here is a great truth in that. When government minds its own business, stupidity is one of the most readily self-correcting societal ills. ;)
David Irving is like a Nazi. He's like Hitler. There. Readers may now invoke Godwin's Law, and I automatically lose the argument.
"As a Usenet discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one."
That's true but often abused.
It is irrelevant to whether or not a particular comparison is logically arguable. Often, he or she who invokes Godwin's law perpetrates a pro-Nazi fallacy by saying that whoever compares the comments of a writer to Nazis, "loses the argument." Such fallacious comment appears to be much like a superstitious compulsion.
As well you should. The Jews are probably the most hated people on earth for centuries running. They represent Gods people and Satan has a real problem with that. With the line drawn in the sand, people should choose sides carefully.
Yes, I have read that in 2050 the percentage of self identified Jews in America who are Orthodox, will push 50%, with the absolute number of Jews less than today. A third of Jews marry someone of another faith, or no faith, I read somewhere.
Which brings up another question. Why are so many Jews Registered and loyal Democrats, regularly voting for antisemitic, left wing despisers of Jews?
