A week after Chancellor Angela Merkel reaffirmed her governments commitment to fight anti-Semitism at a landmark rally in Berlin, a lot needs to be done on the ground to stop the rising tide of anti-Semitism.
At home, German Law enforcement authorities have not only shown apathy and inaction, as in the case of the Muslim Imam in Berlin who called for the extermination of Jews, or against demonstrators in many German cities blaring anti-Semitic slogans. Police have sometimes seemed to go out of their way, allowing demonstrators to use police-megaphones and vehicles to spread the hate as in Frankfurt and Hagen recently.
Internationally, the German tax payer remains a leading sponsor of NGOs and groups that target Israel and the Jewish people.
According to conservative estimates provided by the watchdog group NGO Monitor, between 2010 and 2014 the German government gave more than 4 million to organizations in Israel and the Palestinian territories that are actively running campaigns to demonize and delegitimize the State of Israel.

In the face of Moslem violence, the entire West has adopted a policy of dhimmitude and been a gormless enabler, rather than attempt to suppress it and trust in Israel to manage the regional conflicts to the best of its ability.
This is costing us dearly, and the cost will only rise.
But it’s what Obama wants and strives for.
This say more about Germans than it does the Jews...At least some of them must still consider themselves as the Master Race...
WHY any Muslim or Jew (especially) would WANT to live in Germany is beyond me. There ARE synagogues and mosques in Berlin. We saw them from our tour bus.
There are many falafel places there too and they do very well.
Perhaps the Muslims appreciate the high standard of living.
No kidding. Israel gets half of our foreign military aid: $3.1 billion. And that is JUST military aid.
But we can't stop Muslims, MOST OF WHOM ARE NOT ARABS, from going to and living in Europe and here. And there is NO stopping illegal entries...as we know from our border with Mexico.
Well, we COULD stop them, but we won't. Right?
Last I knew, US foreign military aid to Israel was about 20% of the total, the overwhelming majority of which must be spent in the USA. And, of course, much of the reason for it is because we also finance the military capability of Muslim nations hostile to Israel.
Well, Obama won’t - that much is certain.
So true.
Since he was ELECTED and then REELECTED it must mean that his policies are what the U.S.A. thinks are okay.
I just Googled that number. THAT is where I got that number as I would have NOT A CLUE as to how much we spend.
Try it yourself on Google...not that THEY are definitive.
This is where I saw the figure of $3.1 billion.

And that doesn’t even count the FINOs who do it, presumably for free.
Leftists and the usual Jew-haters make wild claims about US aid to Israel. Here’s a couple sources a little more reliable than most:

...The $1.5 billion requested for Egypt in the presidents fiscal year 2011 budget puts the country fourth on the list of recipients for aid managed by the State Department and the United States Agency for International Development.
Only Afghanistan ($3.9 billion), Pakistan ($3.1 billion) and Israel ($3 billion) have more aid requested for them. Most of the money for these four countries is allocated for peace and security, a broad category that includes combating drug traffickers and terrorists as well as preventing the proliferation of weapons of mass destruction.
In Egypt specifically, $1.3 billion of the requested amount this year is for peace and security....
$3 billion is about right. A big chunk of change that allows some Israelis to believe socialism can work. But that’s not even close to “half”.
Well, being honest that the cost of dependence on foreign oil isn’t just the cost per barrel but includes huge military expenditures that would otherwise not be necessary is a good start!
