“Jews have told me that they are ashamed to be Jewish “because of Israel.” This is directly in reference to military success.”
Okay - in battle and war, by definition, there is a winner and there is a loser. Ask them if their guilt is so great that they’d feel better if Israel were the LOSER. And if so, have they thought beyond that, to the consequence and all its global implications??
Yeah, I know: rationality and logic, not to mention self-preservation.
But the people who have said versions of the *ashamed* trope are proud that they are PC and just make a face and say that they “know what is right in [their] gut.” Some were highly educated, back in the 60s/70s before PC ruined the schools/universities. I’d have to say that they DO prefer being losers or dead to fighting back and that they honestly believe that the global consequences of losing would be peace.
Drives me totally nuts and is why I simply cannot be in their presence for very long.
