[SJ] I didn't say you're a Jewhater, though you strike me as a nutcase
[SJ] You're right, you didn't say "guilt", you said "anxiety". Thanks for your concern about Jewish "anxiety".
[JC]"And Jews throughout this country know the history of hate and violence that can be sparked by this kind of powerful material," David Gad-Harf, head of the Jewish Community Council of Metropolitan Detroit, said Wednesday. "We feel secure and well established here in our country, but we know this history. We know what has happened in the past. That's why we've got such a high level of anxiety."
I can give you many examples of others asking the same thing during that time, are they all nut cases?
Can you go any lower?

Keep trying troll.
While I don’t know anything about David Gad-Harf (and I suspect you don’t either), it’s clear he’s referring to anxiety over millennia of persecution of Jews at the hands of Christians who blame Jews to this day for the death of Christ.
The curse which they have entailed upon themselves, [which] appears to me to to penetrate even to the very marrow of their bones,--even to the unborn infants. They appear to me encompassed on all sides by darkness… thing.
Not an opinion I share, but his anxiety has a legitimate historical basis, particularly when discussing Emmerick. There are still some nutcases that feel that way.
You, on the other hand, were clearly referring to Jewish anxiety, today, over the Jewish role in the Crucifixion.
… the anxiety over what some people had a part in 2000 years ago carrying over to their descendents so many generations later.
Complete nonsense. That’s not a worry to any Jew I’ve ever met. Nor is there any validity to your statement that most Jews wish doom upon Christianity. Sorry about your Jew fetish. Try asprin, maybe it will help.
Have you ever posted anything or replied to anything on FR that wasn't about Jews or Jewishness?
Interestingly enough...
Jewish Scientist's Claim to Discover Aspirin Denied by Nazis
The true discoverer of aspirin was denied recognition because he was a German Jew whose authority was undermined when the Nazis came to power, Dr Walter Sneader of Strathclyde University will claim at the Royal Society of Chemistry's Annual Conference today. In this centenary year of aspirin's launch, Dr Sneader, who is an expert on the history of drug discovery, will detail his detective work that, he says, shows the currently accepted story is not the whole truth. Dr Sneader will address the conference at Heriot- Watt University in Edinburgh.
Aspirin was launched by the Germany company Bayer in 1899 as an effective treatment for rheumatic pain and headache. Since then it is estimated that people have consumed one million million aspirin tablets. The only effective drug for rheumatism before aspirin was exceptionally bitter to the taste and often caused nausea and vomiting. Bayer searched for a more palatable alternative. Felix Hoffmann, a chemist who worked for Bayer, has long been acknowledged as the discover of aspirin, but Dr Sneader claims it was actually Hoffmann's supervisor, Arthur Eichengrun, who deserves the credit.
In 1996, Dr Sneader was asked to give a lecture on the discovery of aspirin. It was while doing research for this talk that he became suspicious of the accepted story. Although there is no doubt that it was Hoffmann who synthesised pure aspirin in 1897, it was not until 1934 that Hoffmann claimed the work as all his own initiative. Eichengrun did not publish his version of events until 1949, in which he stated that Hoffmann had synthesised aspirin under his direction. Intrigued by the difference in these stories, Dr Sneader asked Bayer to let him examine pages of Hoffmann's laboratory notebooks. In these, he discovered evidence that chimed with Eichengrun's version of events. Eichengrun had previously developed methods to make another drug more tolerable. From the laboratory notes, it can be seen that Hoffmann was methodically adapting Eichengrun's scheme to other poorly tolerated drugs, one of which turned out to be aspirin. "There's a clear pattern emerging that substantiates Eichengrun's story," says Sneader.
How then, was Eichengrun' s role overlooked? In 1933, the Nazi's came to power in Germany, and Eichengrun, by then a successful owner of his own chemical company, found his business under great threat of being forcibly removed from him. He had no time to refute Hoffmann's 1934 claim to aspirin. Eichengrun survived 14 months of the war interned in a concentration camp. It was not until 1949 that he published his own claim to the discovery, but he died the same month. Dr Sneader states that he has documentary evidence for all his claims. "My hope is that the man who was truly responsible for the discovery of aspirin receives the full credit he deserves," he says.
