That's why Blair has laid low. The left in the UK is insane. Sound familiar? and a ping to some freepers!

At a private lunch last month, the hostess - doyenne of London's political salon scene - made a remark to the effect that she couldn't stand Jews and everything happening to them was their own fault.

 

Fine by me. This is why Jews now have their own homeland named Israel and will defend it with advanced weaponry.

Word to Arab Muslim Jihadists ! Stand back !! Attack at your own peril.

If someone had said what that dinner host said, in my presence, I'd have gone to jail for assault and battery(with smile on my face.)

..."since September 11 anti-Semitism and its open expression has become respectable
at London dinner tables."


Given enough time, anything comes back into fashion...e.g., a quote
from a British officer from WWII (as best I can recollect):

"Actually, anti-Semitism was rather fashionable (in England) until Hitler came
along and over-did it."

History ALWAYS repeats itself, IMHO.

Recently, the ambassador Senator of a major EU countryast Coast state politely told a gathering at my Charles Schumer's home that the current troubles in the world were all because of "that shitty little country Israel".

I'd always wondered what happened to Vanessa "Ms. Al-Fatah" Regrave.
(Just joking...but recalling Ms. Redgrave's support for Al-Fatah years ago...
maybe the 1970s?)

"Why," he asked, "should the world be in danger of World War Three because of those people?"

The language of true cowards.

Thanks for the ping, grlfrnd.

It would be interesting if Amiel named the ambassador and the Doyenne. But I think British libel law could be a major problem for her, if she did.

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

All the troubles of the Middle East traces directly to the perfidious British.

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.

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.

Didn't realize that all those bombs the IRA set off for years and years were Israel's fault.

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.

The West London Left is composed of the most irritating, snide, condescending, annoying, and just plain contrary English speaking folks that I have ever met in my life. Let me add, however, that it is as representative of the UK as Hollywood is of the USA. The trouble is that all the money in the country drains into London, and these mallet-heads have infested the nerve centers of most policy-making organizations. And a jug-eared, pencil-necked, ghastly-toothed grinning bunch they are.They have turned London into a pit. Anyone travelling to the British Isles needs to get out of London as fast as is humanly possible.

I'd like to be as optimistic as this author ... but I can't. I believe that anti-semitism is the spiritual canary in this mine shaft of a world. I believe this because I believe there is a hidden powerful leader of evil in this world. Not an author of evil ... just a powerful leader. When I see anti-semitism thriving in any strata of society above the very lowest, skinheaded/sociopath/pervert level ... I start looking for the 'Dark Lord' and his minions to make a move. An earth shattering history uheaving sort of move.

I don't think the darkness personofied in readilly apparent world wide anti-semetism such as we have begun to see (right here on this forum) will go away because OBL blew up the WTC and killed a few thousand Americans. The sort of reformation this author believes in might slow the progress of what is to come. But it won't stop it. A few hundred million islamists are going to do everything they can to kill all the Jews and the citizens of any country who try and stand with the Jews. Do you really think any nation other than the US will attemp to resist such a flood? Will America truly stand with Israel when things get truly threatening?
