"...ugly brazen attacks against Jews in the United States that have permeated the Black Lives Matter (BLM) rallies and riots and looting."

Tax evading Al Sharpton's fault.

Jesse Jackson's and Farrakhan's fault too.

The adjective “difficult” should not be abused. Things were really difficult for Jews in Germany and Europe from 1935-1945. Today in America nobody is shooting them, rounding them up, confiscating their property or using state power to destroy them . True that have to deal with the crypto anti-Semites such as Bill DeBlasio and the Democrats who hide their rank anti-Semitism as “anti-Zionists, but at this point these are challenges that make for interesting times and decisions. However the times are not really all that difficult.

A good article from a few years ago

Where Does Black Lives Matter's Anti-Semitism Come From?

Your post would be much easier to read with paragraphs.

Well considering that 90% American Jews are extreme leftest, they brought this on themselves.

It’s why they are called self-loathing Jews. A huge percentage of them are further left than the Russian Bolsheviks.

They helped create this monster.

The baffling part is not that it’s happening, but that the general media is making believe that it is not happening. General media in the United States have not focused on the Jew-hatred, the destruction, the threats, the attacks, the fires, the graffiti.

Not baffling at all because it simply does not fit their agenda. The press has one incredible power that is often overlooked: the power to ignore.

Not baffling at all. Maddening yes, but not baffling.

It’e about time they learned the lesson from the holocaust. Hope the message gets through to the likes of Charles Schumer, Diane Feinstein, Jerry Nadler etc. They haven’t been particularly gun friendly during their wretched careers.

I know a popular rabbi who was given two AR-15s with ammo by a non-Jewish fan.

Here’s a story about Jews arming up:

Let's not exaggerate. About 25% of Jews voted for Trump in 2016. I wager the percentage will be a lot higher this year given Trump's overall excellent performance and his overt support for Israel.

I wish I could argue with you but you are correct.

Thank you for the link, re: “Where does BLM anti-Semitism come from?”

That article has the best definition of “intersectionality” I’ve seen. Interestingly enough, it’s no different than Marx’s communist definition, where society is divided up, having only changed the names to “oppressors” and “oppressed,” from bourgeois and proletariat.

It’s a grievance system with a score-card, and designed to pit not just classes, as was the case with Marx, but every immutable (and some choices made by the individual) properties against each other.

It certainly explains how homosexuals are conned into supporting groups that openly call for their own extinction, while calling for the destruction of the only country in the middle east which has a “gay pride parade.”

I don’t want to hijack this thread, but these are difficult times for ALL of us, Jews included!

The BLM and antifa George Soros paid thugs, Constitution hating Democrat Governors, Mayors and their sycophant lickspittle press bozos are ensuring that we stay at each other’s throats!

WE MUST RE-ELECT PRESIDENT TRUMP ON NOVEMBER 3, 2020, OR AMERICA IS LOST!

Heck, I'd include most of the black community in there too.
