She comes to the right conclusion ... but starts out seemingly on the wrong track.

crazykatz is a very nice and involved lady who has helped Serb refugees in the USA. The great shame of AmJews is not supporting the Serbs and falling for Muslim Albanian lies and bs.

Good for you!
Whenever and wherever we encounter these sniveling, pathetic, corrupted b@st@rds we must shout down their lies.

All the troubles of the Middle East traces directly to the perfidious British.
To: Sabramerican
Well, I think that's a bit unfair.
You can't seriously pin all of the regions troubles on the Brits.

The editor is a decent man. Permit me to doubt it. Just because a man has a well-tailored dinner-jacket doesn't mean he's a gentlement. Most editors these days are disgusting, sleazy, lying hypocrital scumbags. And that's exactly what this guy sounds like from what he is reported to have said. If he's truly "decent," I'm a monkey's uncle.

This article is about the Brits, but the Euros are a lot worse. Notice that some of the worst offenders here are Eurotrash visitors at British dinner tables.

The sad truth is that in NYC where I live most of the people who are anti-Sharon (and anti-Netanyahu before that) are Jews...they don't seem to have a real Jewish consciousness but rather a Northeastern liberal Jewish identity...it's like the American grandchildren and great grandchildren of the Holocaust survivors refuse to see the connection between Islamism and the Nazi movement...they seek peace through appeasement...they have no real sense of pride or courage.
To: cicero's_son
They made promises to all sides. They lied to everyone. They closed the gates dooming millions of Jews to Hitler. They executed Jews. They coached Arab armies in their 1948 attack on Israel. I could go on.
As I see it: enemies are enemies. You know where you stand. Someday, maybe you will even reconcile. Lethal malicious treachery from supposed friends is damnable for eternity.
To: Sabramerican
Some of our greatest friends and allies today are the same people who commited the worst atrocities in the 1940's. I do not excuse their behavior then, but I will not hold the current generation responsible any more than I hold contemporary Americans responsible for slavery.
And as for closing the gates in WWII, do not forget how much the British themselves suffered at the hands of the Nazis. Were it not for their courage and resolve, America might never have gotten involved in the European War.
No nation is without sin.
To: Cicero
but the Euros are a lot worseThey need a new fad, Marxism isn't doing so well and they have to be chic and hate America, that could have them turning to Islamics for their newest infatuation.

Didn't realize that all those bombs the IRA set off for years and years were Israel's fault.
To: cicero's_son
Their hypocrisy concerning Israel, when you consider their action vis a vis the Irish, is beyond belief.
They don't see the Jewish right to Israel (those are the gates they closed) but they went to war over an island off the coast of Argentina.
Not much to love about the Argentines, but I was rooting for them against the British.
To: Pokey78
The British sociocrats have always come off as a bit smobish and bigoted, now add anti-semetic bordering on Nazi to that combination and warning lights start flashing. European Jews need to see the inceasing hatred of Israel and prepare to cash out and relocate. So far the U.S. is still a safe haven but that can change rapidly, given the extraordinary potential for world crisis at any moment. Where can a Jewish man feel safe walking down the steet wearing his tzitziot out and a kippah on his head? Paris, London, Berlin, Jerusalem, Newark, Detroit, Miami?
I present to you that no place on Earth can an individual openly be Jewish and expect to remain safe. 100's of millions would come to the defense of Israel and the Jew's worldwide, but 1000's of millions would rather see them dead and forgotten.
To: Sabramerican
I suppose we'll have to agree to disagree, then.
I'll freely admit their faults--as I would admit the faults of any nation--but I cannot agree with your blanket condemnation of the British. In a pinch, they are the one nation on Earth the United States can truly count on.
To: cicero's_son
True(?). But it took an a**kicking. Twice.
To: hsszionist
It is true that no place on Earth is truly safe. It is good to be a Jew, and it is hard to be a Jew.
To: hsszionist
I present to you that no place on Earth can an individual openly be Jewish and expect to remain safe. Maybe not. But I watched the "Chanukah Live!" presentation on webcam and I was flabbergasted by the Menorah-lighting ceremony at the Kremlin. This massive menorah (20 feet high), thousands of people in subzero weather, the Mayor of Moscow wishing "Zpraznikem Chanukah" and loudspeakers playing Jewish music. Absofreakinglutely unbelievable. In Moscow. Who'da thunk?
