The truth about antisemitism is hard for Jews to accept
Israel National News ^ | March 7, 2025 | Rabbi YY Jacobson

Posted on 03/16/2025 9:02:38 AM PDT by Twotone

Hatred of the Jew has been universal, permanent, and deep.[1] Death for the Jews has been desired and plotted by the tyrants of every age. Pharaoh, Sancheriv, Nebuchadnezzar, Antiochus, the Roman Caesars, the Turks, the Christians, the Muslims, Stalin, Hitler, and almost every great power that ever lived and flourished, defined the Jew as a target for abuse or complete annihilation.

Jews have been expelled from nearly every country in which they resided—England, France, Hungary, Austria, Germany, Italy, Greece, Lithuania, Spain, Portugal, Bohemia, Moravia, Russia, Poland and the countries of the Middle East and North Africa, and of course, from their ancient homeland, Eretz Israel. It is estimated that every 22 years Jews have been exiled from another country.

Throughout the centuries, many millions of Jews were murdered, including millions of infants and children. The Babylonians and Romans killed three million Jews. The Christians and the Muslims in their Crusades, inquisitions, conversion decrees, blood libels, and general religious fervor over a span of 15 centuries slaughtered millions of Jews, often wiping out entire communities. Chmelnitzky and his bandits beheaded 300,000 Polish Jews during 1648-49, while Hitler put to death a third of our people, including one-and-a-half million children. In nearly every country, Jews have, at some time, been subjected to beatings, torture, and murder solely because they were Jewish.

And though many of us thought that the evil of antisemitism perished in a post-Auschwitz world, we have been rudely awakened during the last few years as it once again rears its ugly face, particularly among Arab nations and in Europe.

Then came October 7th, 2024. 1200 Jews were murdered brutally, Jewish children burned alive, Jewish women were tied down, raped, and beheaded during the horrific massacre, and so many people here in America celebrated...

As the Israeli government does to the residents of Gaza what the Germans did to the Jews, “anti-semitism” is on the rise. Of course, now the smear “anti-semite” is applied to anyone who has any disagreement with the Israeli government policies enacted by people who are often atheists or at the very least not adhering to the Ten Commandments.

Very well stated.

I watched the debate between Rabbi Schuley and Candace Owens on the Piers Morgan show. Rabbi Schuley is dishonest and nasty.

There are some who claim to be American patriots who are blind to the intellectual fraud of the Zionists.

The truth about antisemitism is that the world, the flesh, and the devil are at enmity with God and hate his people the lost tribes of Israel, the Jews.

But soon Israel will be found of God and “all Israel will be saved” (Romans 11:26) howbeit all but a remnant will subsequently be killed (Revelation Chapters 12-13).

“As the Israeli government does to the residents of Gaza what the Germans did to the Jews….”

The Israelis are shoving Gazans into gas chambers and ovens?

How did I miss that?

You’re a very poor liar.

My take....

They hate God and by extension, they hate Jesus... even moreso due to His sacrifice for our salvation. It was the ultimate “Checkmate” to Satan and his minions.

And they hate the Jews for being God’s chosen people via the seed of Abraham. Since Jesus was born from the Jewish lineage, they are taking out their hatred of God and Jesus on Israel and all Jews. Which is why Jesus warned of the persecution to come and why God still protects “His” people among the Jews.

The Gazans have done it to themselves. Their behavior for years required Israel to wall them off further & further. They cannot be trusted outside a cage.

What Islamists want to do to the Jews is exactly what they intend to do to Christians & every other “infidel” when they are finished with the Jews. At some point people are going to realize they need to deal with Islam. It cannot be allowed to exist, as it’s an existential threat to everyone.

I never heard of this guy, so I check his Wiki page.

Some excerpts:

Yeven Mezulah, the contemporary 17th-century chronicle by Nathan ben Moses Hannover, an eyewitness, states:

Wherever they found the szlachta, royal officials or Jews, they [Cossacks] killed them all, sparing neither women nor children. They pillaged the estates of the Jews and nobles, burned churches and killed their priests, leaving nothing whole. It was a rare individual in those days who had not soaked his hands in blood...

It seems Jews weren't uniquely targeted. Nobles, officials, and Christians were also massacred. Everyone.

And that's the story of history. Millions of people of every background were massacred, often simply because they were in the way.

As for the 300,000 estimate, that's based on old sources now discounted by modern Jewish scholars.

A 2003 study by Israeli demographer Shaul Stampfer of Hebrew University dedicated solely to the issue of Jewish casualties in the uprising concludes that 18,000–20,000 Jews died out of a total population of 40,000. He attributes many of these deaths to disease and famine.

Paul Robert Magocsi states that Jewish chroniclers of the 17th century "provide invariably inflated figures with respect to the loss of life among the Jewish population of Ukraine. The numbers range from 60,000–80,000 (Nathan Hannover) to 100,000 (Sabbatai Cohen), but that "[t]he Israeli scholars Shmuel Ettinger and Bernard D. Weinryb speak instead of the 'annihilation of tens of thousands of Jewish lives', and the Ukrainian-American historian Jaroslaw Pelenski narrows the number of Jewish deaths to between 6,000 and 14,000".

You put every one of 2 million people in the same category. The Nazis did exactly the same sort of generalizing. And the same sort of mass murder and ethnic cleansing for all the same sort of rationalizations.

There was scarcely a Palestinian who didn't celebrate the murders of Oct. 7.

In addition to those crimes, Hamas deliberately hides its combatants as civilians, among the civilian population. Stores weapons in mosques, hospitals, etc. Has infiltrated and used NGOs to hide fighters and transport war materiel. Plus takes hostages.

In brief, the Palestinians violate every law of war, and every time the Israelis lift control of Gaza or the West Bank, they have been rewarded with more terrorist attacks.

Examine an alternate history: Say the Gazans who broke through on Oct. 7 had held captured IDF as POWs, had put the civilians in safe areas and had prepared defensive positions like a real army. They would have shown the discipline, command and control, and willingness to follow the laws the war that might have made Hamas a legitimate entity with which to negotiate a better future for Gaza. Instead, they engaged in wanton murder and rape.

The Israelis cannot go after Hamas without killing large numbers of civilians because Hamas uses them as shields. The Israelis kill civilians because they have no choice whereas Hamas deliberately kills civilians as its first choice, which their rocket attacks also make clear.

FWIW, there will be a two-state solution, but the Palestinian state will be no where near Israel.

Doesn't explain why so many Jews, including Israeli Jews, hate Jesus.

Yes.

Israel as a nation has been lost for 2000 years even though mercifully, many Jews have received Christ.

But soon Israel will be found of God and “all Israel will be saved” (Romans 11:26)

Ridiculous. After Oct 7 they polled Gazans & 90% were in favor of the attacks. Gazans voted for & supported Hamas. Hamas put it in their own constitution that their purpose was to kill Jews & destroy/eliminate the State of Israel. If Mexico repeatedly attacked our border the way that Gazans have attacked Israel, we would be fighting them to the death, too.

Islam is a mind virus that has so utterly corrupted these people that they cannot be trusted as part of civil society. Some day or other, we will have to acknowledge that fact & ban Islam & Muslims from society.

Surprisingly no mention of Democrats who support Arabs over the Jewish people, and the majority still support the Democrats.

That's pretty telling. I would surmise.

Is hate the word you were looking for? Many are ambivalent. The answer is that Satan is the ruler of this world with tremendous influence. Everyone that hates Jesus/Jews are under his influence. God is a God of love. Therefore Satan is the god of hatred.

“Doesn’t explain why so many Jews, including Israeli Jews, hate Jesus.”

Because they are not yet saved and because Satan’s influence is strong upon them. Many of them will be saved at the end. Many, but not all. (narrow is the road, path, gate, etc.)

“Matthew 7:13-14, Jesus said, “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it”.”

There was a comment in the article about Jews who try to blend in, so as not to arouse the ire of those who hate Jews. But since this is from an Israeli source, I wouldn’t expect them to mention our Jewish Democrats.

The Talmud.
Also, in the letters to the churches dictated by or Lord and Savior Jesus to John in Revelation, in two he cautioned about those who claim to be Jews but are not.

Is the Talmud the foundation for Islam?
