We’re nearing the end of the church age IMHO.
Wars and rumors of war.
The Lawless One will arise and confirm 7 years of ‘Peace and Security’.
3-1/2 years later he will declare himself to be “god” and the Great Tribulaton will begin.
THEN comes the Mark of the Beast.
And the Israel haters will join him.
Matthew 24:15-16
King James Version
15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)
16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

Anti-Semitism has been with us for thousands of years. It is an infection, and the cure is the truth.
Absolutely. Thank you for a brief explanation.
Jews are the canaries in the social coal mine: every time the society decays through war, pestilence, famine or decadence and tyranny, the Jews pay.
Incompetent and failing societies need a scapegoat. The Jews are that scapegoat.
If the Jews did not exist, they would have to be invented.
(attributed to Jean-Paul Sartre among others)
Well said.
The West is dead. We won’t see them stand up against Islamofascism. Many nations in the West may not survive 20 years from now. Sweden? France? Canada? They may all fall to Muslims.
The flip side of race hatred is self-loathing.
Well,
The truth is that they had Jesus crucified (Pilot didn’t want to do that). When you kill someones prophet and in this case the son of God, that generally does not make you popular among those people.
In wasn’t until 1965 that the official stance on the Jews being at fault for Jesus being killed was repudiated (Second Vatican Council issued a document “Nostra Aetate” ): https://www.reuters.com/article/us-pope-jews-events/timeline-vatican-jewish-relations-idUSTRE60G0WA20100117
They tried to stone Jesus and are the Pharisees which the Bible does not talk highly about: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pharisees
They deny the Trinity.
They are often found in the money business, conducting essentially what once was referred to as “usery” and in the past there were less rules on what you can take away from people, when, and how... They were often hated for their role in society as the banker: https://www.christianity.com/wiki/christian-terms/what-is-usury-what-does-the-bible-say.html
That is also one of the reasons why every Inquisition got rid of them. In fact, one of the first recorded wide spread mass murdering of Jews in Europe was at the hands of the Francs, during the first Crusade. The Francs did not appreciate the Jews charging interest for what was a holy crusade to free the Holy Land and where Jews were doing business with the Muslims: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhineland_massacres
Many Jews themselves believe that they are being punished for a reason (there is scriptural basis for it).
The Jews have their own distinct culture, they are their own people, and they never integrated in the societies where they were (Italy, Spain, France, Germany, England). So they always stuck out in language, dress, religion and social rites...
***The point being, there is a historical reason for this.***
In America, we live in a bubble, insulated from the cultural, historical, economic, realities of the world, even nature with our fake food, plastic people (https://i.dailymail.co.uk/1s/2023/08/31/14/74906367-12463351-image-a-1_1693487430168.jpg)...
In this bubble people are so far removed from reality, that people don’t even know why the Jews have always been targeted.
We proclaim homosexuality as natural, and we have movies with lots of African American knights, where the daughter of two Greeks is black (Cleopatra). We have 120 lbs female action heroes that beat up 240 lbs men all day long... In America we even rewrite the Bible in gender neutral language, have female priests, open communion, gay weddings, and folks like Darby (Baptists), and Joseph Smith (Mormons) come up with their all new interpretation of things.
Along those lines, starting in the 1860s with the rise of the Baptists, the Jew which were also disliked in the US up until then, began to take on a new role. But you need to realize, in America we even rewrite our own history since Jews were disliked all the way until the early 1900s among the social elite, political class, etc! Lindbergh, Ford... all known anti-Semites. FDR didn’t like them: https://www.latimes.com/opinion/la-xpm-2013-apr-07-la-oe-medoff-roosevelt-holocaust-20130407-story.html, and what we call anti-Semitism was common and accepted in the US at the time! In fact, before WWII began there were many Jewish refugees and we REFUSED to take, in part because we didn’t want “those Jews.” More about that: https://archives.jdc.org/topic-guides/the-story-of-the-s-s-st-louis/ (Imagine being one of the 907 Jews that were sent back to Germany, yikes...).
In our tradition of rewriting history, this was removed from the Smithsonian years ago: https://ids.si.edu/ids/deliveryService?id=NASM-SI-2001-4158&max=900 (Spirit of St Luis Spinner)
Post WWII and Holocaust, with a plethora of movies (Hollywood is heavily Jewish influenced) and the teaching of the plight of these people..., no one wants to publicly be an anti-Semite today, not in the West, but the core truths of why this once was so common is as true today as it was in the past.
***That does not make it right. But there is a historical reason.***
How did we get to the anti-Semitic aspect of moral collapse? A few weeks after the attack on 9/11 the Left became concerned that Americans would become Islamophobic. This immediately resulted in Muslims achieving permanent victim status. At that point rather than exercising appropriate levels of caution the Left began encouraging the wholesale importation of Muslims into the United States. No doubt to virtue signal tolerance, acceptance and lack of prejudice for an ideology that hates America and wants to destroy it. The co-location of mass numbers of Islamics in cities and Universities across America, thus begat the election of “The Squad”. Also not surprisingly, a huge increase in the support on college campuses of anti-Semitism and the support of terrorism against Jews and Israel. Now the Left is starting to support the mass immigration of Islamics from Gaza, so the situation will no doubt become dramatically worse.
I was a business partner in a very successful business for over 30 years with a Jew. He was a very tough and demanding man.
But, one day, we were relaxing and having a couple of drinks and he started talking about Masada (battle of). We had NEVER talked about religion. The more he talked the more emotional he got with tears and everything.
He died about 5 years ago. I’ve never understood the hostility towards Jews. He was a good man and a great partner. Always did what he said he was going to do and as Call said about Deets...........”he never shirked a task”.
Enormous pro-palestinian protest in London today. It’s true - the more things change the more they stay the same.
You’re absolutely right about this, but I still cannot understand it.
Now the brown people running everything, it turns out, don't like Jews.
We should have known when the polls continued to show that the student loan deadbeats hated America and American patriots. The ones who said America never was great although the azho refugeez walked 2000 miles to wade across the RIO GRANDE and sneak in.
