Expand, baloney.
1. The baloney is the supposition that “Jews are afraid of Christians.”
First assuming, this is a theological point, I concede that a JINO (who is religiously defined as “not Christian”) may be threatened by Christian proselytizing attempts, in that said JINO has no religion of his own, and yet (if he or she is actually Jewish under the Law), he very soul (by its Jewish nature) cries out for the Divine — making him or her a complete sucker for whatever false religion comes along. This causes much mental stress.
A religious Jew of any seriousness (a “real” Jew, IMHO), in contrast, is not threatened, and, indeed, understands and is flattered by the effort. Mind you, it does not make it less annoying.
2. If the “fear” referred to is a physical fear of some kind of WWII redux, well, I think most Jews have reached the point that we will go down swinging, or at least the Jews of my acquantance will.
3. I do agree that most JINOs will stand with Barry. My experience with American Jews was when they came on visit to Israel (generally drunk high school girls from New Jersey who were an easy lay). Some are serious about Israel, but most view it as an interesting construct.
They're afraid of Christians.
Myself, I shake when speaking to a Christian.
But BHO is a Christian, what am I to think.
