Jackie Mason, Raoul Felder: American Jews should consider emulating the eagle [not]the ostrich
jewishworldreview.com ^ | Sept. 14, 2004 | Jackie Mason & Raoul Felder

It has been said that "Jews are the people of 'The Book'." From what we observe today, "The Book" is not a survival manual and may end up being the Koran.

There are three things certain in life: death, taxes and anti-Semitism. Well, death is death, taxes are down and anti-Semitism is up. Like some demon seed that lay dormant, sleeping, covered over or ignored, it has now sprouted once again. The hated symbols are scrawled across the grave stones in Jewish cemeteries and on the walls of the ancient capitals of Europe and the Near and Middle East. Jews are blamed for every thing from the destruction of The World Trade Center to the war in Iraq, and are called "baby-killers" in relation to the Palestinian problem, even while the world's media prints the photographs of the arms of small slaughtered Jewish children hanging from the side of a bus that Palestinian terrorists had decided to destroy.

American Jews are peculiarly disconnected from these happenings, and apparently are determined to make their disinterest evident in unfolding world events by their support of the Democratic candidate for President. An ostrich buries its head in the sand, and in so doing leaves another part of its anatomy vulnerable. American Jews should take heed and perhaps consider emulating the eagle, rather than the ostrich...

FDR was SLOWWWWWWWWW to do ANYTHING about Hitler's perseceution of the Jews and FORBID bombing the concentration camps! Yeah, it may have killed a few hundred and saved THOUSANDS.

I love it when I can catch him on the Hannity show. He gets on a roll and there's no stopping him.

On the other hand, Nixon, Reagan and the present President have been the guardians of Israel's survival........


I love it, especially the Richard Nixon appreciation.

From my jewish perspective.

Originally there was a concern for the underdog that was perceived to be ignored by the republicans.

There is also a perceived fear of the Christian Coalition.

It's hard to forget old fears, but I believe 9/11 and now Beslan, has changed the paradigm.

I liked him (Jackie Mason) better when he gave the audience the finger on Ed Sullivan.

Say that reminds me. Has Ackroyd ever been funny in anything, or has he just been good at making friends with funny people?

Mason is a funny guy, and I usually agree with him politically. That being said, Caddyshack II is a crime against all of humanity.

Its simple really. Jews fear Christians more than they fear Islam. Nothing more or less as far as I can see.

When I point out to my left coast brother that American Christians are some of the strongest supporters of Israel, he sez that's only because they want to convert us.

And also, as far as Israel is concerned, when the Messiah comes, we will have plenty of time to ask him if this is a return visit or not.

ROTFLOL. Shouldn't have read that while drinking...
