(IsraelNN.com) Professor Richard Dawkins, a senior British evolutionary scientist and outspoken atheist, drew fire on Monday for saying that Jews more or less monopolize American foreign policy. Religious Jews are a small group, Dawkins said, but are fantastically successful in lobbying the US government. Dawkins, who is currently in the US in an attempt to promote atheism and fight religious influence, expressed hope that atheists would be similarly successful in determining government policy.
A number of Jewish leaders responded immediately, with ADL head Abe Foxman calling Dawkins remarks classic anti-Semitism. Malcom Hoenlein, a senior official in the Conference of Presidents of Major American Organizations, was quoted by Yediot Acharonot as saying the statements represented the poisoning of the elite. Even top scientists can demonstrate ignorance and fall victim to misinformation, said Hoenlein, adding This impact spreads within the intellectual community, and then trickles down to the general populace.
I like to think of it’s more as a passionate affair.
Well, better the Jews than the Muslims.
Wow, thats about as antisemitic as it gets-right out of the Protocols of Zion.
No! No!!! It’s the Skull and Bones that controls US policy!!!!
He's going for the Putz Trifecta!
Twenty posts before I see “Da JOOOOOOS!!!”
We’re slipping, y’all.
The guy is a cripple and obviously is pissed at God for his situation. Maybe he can change his name to “TIMMAY!!”
Who or what drew those pieces of slime?
If I help the Jews rule the world will they get me a date with Anna? |
Please tell me that that statement doesn’t mean what it seems to mean.
Well, if Dawkins is going to get on the wrong side of God, he might as well offend God’s chosen people as well.
He finally sold a serious number of one of his books and methinks he very much likes the money and attention he’s made by saying outrageous things. 100 years ago they bottled books like this and sold ‘em for a buck a bottle - it was called snake oil. Caveat emptor.
PatRobertson.com - One day in the late 19th Century, Queen Victoria of England reportedly asked her Prime Minister, Benjamin Disraeli, this question: "Mr. Prime Minister, what evidence can you give me of the existence of God?" Disraeli thought for a moment and then replied, "The Jew, your majesty." Think of it, according to Disraeli the primary evidence that God exists is the existence of the Jewish people
A people who in 586 BC were deported to Babylon, yet returned after seventy years to rebuild a nation. Who were again brutally massacred and dispersed by the Romans in 70 AD, yet after countless centuries of Diaspora, expulsions, pogroms, ghettos, and attempts at genocidal extermination, have clung to their faith, their customs-and now after some 2500 years of wandering have returned to the land promised by God to their ancestors. A new nation began in that land in 1948 named after their ancestor Jacob, whose divinely appointed name Israel means "Prince with God." And to fulfill another ancient prophecy, God moved on the heart of Eliezer Ben-Yehuda, whose son Ehud told me that, while his father was living in Eastern Europe, he heard a voice and saw a light directing him to bring forth for the Jewish people a pure language-Hebrew-the language of the Torah and of the ancient prophets. Yes, the survival of the Jewish people is a miracle of God. The return of the Jewish people to the land promised to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob is a miracle of God. The remarkable victories of Jewish armies against overwhelming odds in successive battles in 1948, and 1967, and 1973 are clearly miracles of God. The technological marvels of Israeli industry, the military prowess, the bounty of Israeli agriculture, the fruits and flowers and abundance of the land are a testimony to God's watchful care over this new nation and the genius of this people.
Who knew Crown Prince Abdullah was a Jooo?
No. All we’ll give you is Monica Lewinsky. That was the deal we made with Clinton.
This statement?
Fortunately for us, we have many conservative Jewish people posting at F.R.
If you see something sinister in that statement, please point it out to me.
