>>I'm surprised that the Guardian has printed this kind of piece. Could it be that things are actually changing in Europe or am I just being overly optimistic?<<

Why should you be surprised? Just what is "antisemitism"?

Are Zionists semites? Are all Israilies semites? Is modern Israel the same as the ancient Israel of God? The answer to each of these questions is an emphatic NO, as anyone would learn if he would study either the Bible or the history of Jews.

Zionism is a political movement. Modern Judaism includes people of all races, and nationalities. There are black Jews, white Jews, Chinese Jews, Indian Jews, Mexican Jews, et cetera. There is NO race of Jews. It is estimated by Benjamin H. Freedman of the Christian Educational Association that about 90 plus percent of the Jews in some 42 countries originated in eastern Europe. The "Jews" were originally of the kingdom of the Khazars, a nation that once extended over what is now the southern portion of Russia. According to the Jewish Encyclopedia, Vol. IV, these Khazars (also spelled Chazars) embraced the Jewish religion in the 7th century A.D. They also adopted the Hebrew alphabet and applied it to their own language which came to be known as Yiddish. (Note: Yiddish and Hebrew are unrelated languages. They only use the same alphabet). The religious law of these self-styled Jews wwas the Talmud, not the OT Bible, although the Talmud quotes some of those scriptures. It is the descendants of the Khazars who make up the main body of immigrants to Palestine today. These self-styled Jews also emigrated into Western Europe and finally into the United States. A vast number of these people are seen daily on TV or we do business with them at local stores across the USA. And a large number of government officials are of Khazar extraction and are known as Jews. This explains why many people find it hard to understand why a person may be a Jew but not "look like a Jew". Judaism is not racial. One does not have to be a descendant of Abraham or of Shem to be a Jew.

Neither are all Semites Jews. Many of the Arabs are true Semites, descendants of Shem, the son of Noah, and also descendants of Abraham through Ishmal. Many thoughsands of them have been driven from their homes by the Israelis in their aggression against Jordan. People who sympathize with these Arabs cannot be honestly called anti-Semitic. This term, "anti-Semitic", is a smear-word, used to brand as a bigot and hate-monger anyone who brings criticism against a Jew. Khazars are not Semites - not related to Shem nor of Abraham's seed.

Furthermore, to identify Judaism as an anti-Christian religion is not in the least unfair to Jews. The Jews themselves make it abundantly clear that they do not and will not recognize Jesus as the Christ. Jewish writers continually bring out novels and non-fiction work which accuses Christ of being an imposter, rejects the Bible as a revealed word from their God and negates Christian teachings. An example is the best-seller "The LPassover Plot" by Dr. Hugh J. Schonfield. Jews do not hesitate to identify themselves as opposed to the gospel of Christ; therefore, it should not be considered anything but honest and Christian to identify Jews and Judaism as the opposite of Christianity. Judaism is NOT the mother of Christianity as many, even amongst Christianity, imply. There is no such animal as Judeo-Christianity.

Due to the lack of time and space here it is impossible to give more than a brief sketch bearing on the question of "Who is a Jew"? But I would challenge anyone to obtain some books whitten by Jews and search the matter for yourself. For example, there is Howard Morely Sachar's "The Course of Modern Jewish History", in which he boasts of the concept of a Jewish world government through the Rothschilds, the international banking family of Jews, (Page 129) and where he names names and proves that the movie industry and the three major TV networks are controlled by Jews. (Page 345). He also boasts of the major role of prominent Jews in the rise of Communism (Page 300). - Published by Dell Pub. Co., New Yourk, 1958. Other informative books on the subject are: "The other Side of the Coin" by David Lillienthal; "What is a Jew" by Rabbi Kerstner (who insists that Jewism is NOT racial); "Felix Frankfurter Reminisces" by Phillips (in which Franfruter states that he got Jews into government at every opportunity); "Who is a Jew" by the Anti-Defamation League (which holds that the Talmud, not the OT Bible, is the governing rule of Jewish practices, page 10).

There are 100's more books if one would care to search the libraries of the USA and even the Nation of Israel. One could really get an eye-full studying what Israelis put out for publication in their research departments and schools.

Education - what a freedom we have because of that!
