I am aware of Disraeli’s life. Still, at least a PM who at least was born a Jew and had Jewish blood and background is more than America has put in the White House.
Nut crunching time?. It was Britain who took in 100000 Jewish refugees. It was Britain who stood in 1939 against Hitler and the Axis. And it was Britain who stood alone in 1940 and 1941 against the Nazis and Fascist Italy. Whilst America was nowhere to be seen.
You sneer about what Britain did at ‘nut-crunching time’, frankly what the **** did America do to help the Jews of Europe?. Or do to stop the Nazis?.
“what the **** did America do to help the Jews of Europe?. Or do to stop the Nazis?”
Really? But for our friends the Americans, I would not exist, and you would be, at best, a Nazi serf.
That said, I do agree the British anti-semitism is almost uniquely an upper-class phenom. I’ve been swept up among EDL football thugs accidently, and they treated me squarely all right, even respecftfully, and I have a kippa, beard, etc.
In contrast, at upper class parties (we lived in Knightsbridge for a year), we were shunned when they discovered we were Israeli and our children suddenly not invited to play dates.
