More evidence that the doors are closing. I believe that all Jews should leave Europe and move to Israel

Jews, who travelled as merchants with the Roman legions, started to travel to Europe 2,000 years ago... Longer than many European ethnic identities have existed. I don't see any reason to criticize Jews who decide to stay in Europe for what ever reason they think is worth it to them. This certainly will play in many peoples decisions, I'm sure, but come on... Jews who don't immediately move to Israel aren't bad people. What if they decide to move to the more prosperous, safer, and land of greater opportunity, the US? Would you mind having more doctors, scientists, lawyers, accountants (plus a bunch of commies, admittedly) moving to the US? I sure wouldn't. Would those people are bad becasue they don't move to Israel, a country they might have also never been to but a whole lot more physically dangerous than, say, Boston? I just hope you were being figurative not literal. But anyway, the Europeans have gone mentally insane. Though if you recall, they protested similarly against Reagan. (I think you are too young to remember it happening?) They were angry about nuclear missile placement in Europe, and they called him Ronny Ray Gun because of the anti ballistic missile defense system known in the media as "star wars." Lots of parallels to now. There were HUGE protests against Reagan when he visited Europe. Riots, crazy ones like we don't get in the US except in, say, LA after Rodney King.

I agree. If they choose to come to the US, that would be good too.
