Three years ago I was contacted by an editor of Rowohlt, one of the biggest book publishers in Germany. She said she loved my articles in the Zeit, the prestigious German newspaper I’ve been writing for, and would like me to come to Germany for a few months, interview people and write about them “in the same style you write for the Zeit.” …
Hardly a day passed by without at least one interviewee talking to me about the “rich Jews,” the “shrewd Jews,” the Israelis who eat Palestinians for breakfast on a daily basis, the “manipulating Jew,” or anything else “Jew.”
Germany, I sadly found out, was obsessed with Jews. Even those who claimed to like Jews had very strange thoughts about them. Some told me that all Jews knew each other, others said that all Jews helped each other, and still others claimed that all Jews were “very good” with money. …

If this person thinks that this sort of thinking is only happening in Germany then they are indeed fooling themselves. You only have to look at lefty conspiracy theory websites - follow the links and soon enough you will find that they are directly or indirectly involved in blaming the Jews for almost everything!
Yes, it’s very widespread.
Notwithstanding, Germany right now is the de-facto leader of the European Union, and that puts them in a position of power.
Wow, I didn’t realize it was that bad. When I was in Germany, I don’t remember anyone mentioning Jews. Apparently, maybe because I am a gentile. I think I will read this book.
Wow...what really got me was when the editor demanded that “Jews” be changed to “Israel”.
The anti-semites (such as Occupy Wall Street) hide their hatred of Jews by screaming at Israel...and then say their only problem is with the policies of that state. The above demand shows that their problem is MUCH, MUCH, deeper, and much, much uglier.
There’s nothing amiss with Israel’s policies, though. They get filled up with very many lies and propaganda about what Israel is alleged to be doing, while instead Israel is giving the “Palestinians” everything they demand piecemeal. (How many of the Occupy anti-Semites are truly aware that the goal of the “Palestinians” is the Islamic “one-state solution” where there is no Jewish state of Israel and basically the entire Jewish population is slaughtered?)
An Asian-American friend went to study in rural Germany, pretty much unaware of the undercurrents. Within a week my innocent academic nerdy friend was being openly harassed every time she went into town with brutal anti-Chinese slurs and some physical contact during the outbursts.
I tried to explain to her that the Wermacht troops that slaughtered my grandfather’s Polish hometown were from the region of Germany she was living in, and the area never really reformed.
Let the Germans and the German Turks fight it out.
The problem is, we are sleeping stateside.
While Germany retains their industry, we are sending industry to China - which is rapidly arming.
Just saying. We need to bring our industry back.
The editor of Rowohlt is the grandson of the founder, the founder Rowohlt was an active high level member of the Nazi party who worked alongside Goebbels.

The founding Rowohlt also employed Jewish writers before the Nazis took over, but almost immediately abandoned them once politically expedient. Life repeats itself.
Whitewashed obit.
The thing that is hurting the Palestinians is Palestinian leadership.
>> Germany, I sadly found out, was obsessed with Jews.
Genetics.
Physically beautiful, Intellectually idiotic. Tamed barbarians. Crudest Western language. Outstanding gear heads.
Sadly, it is true. Germanic Europe is anti-Semitic. I lived and worked there for a decade and it is verrry hard to be Jewish there.
The synagogues, except for the few original antique ones, are so hidden I missed a wedding once.
Sadly, the current Palestinian population is pretty much rotten to the core.
Number 14 sadly disappeared before I could reply.
So did the guy who posted it.

Must be why Germany is ‘the most popular country in the world’:

The Dreyfuss Affair in Pre-WW1 France demonstrarated anti-Semitic attitudes across the population of that country, too.
