Happy Passover, the holiday when American Jews attempt to pass over an Ivy League campus and British Jews attempt to pass over a Central London thoroughfare. Surveying the scene at Columbia, Powerline's Scott Johnson posts a picture of Nazis preventing Jews from entering the University of Vienna in 1938.
We are enjoined not to go full Godwin's this early in the column, but the photograph prompted this thought: A century ago, the Jews of Germany were the most assimilated in Europe. They had prospered under the Kaiser, and seemed set to do even better in the Weimar Republic. They were industrialists, intellectuals, scientists, artists... A quarter of the thousand richest men in Prussia were Jews.

"The UK's Jewish population is old and minimally fruitful; the Muslim population is youthful and growing:"
1981:
Jews: 330,000
Muslims: 553,0002021:
Jews: 277,653
Muslims: 3,868,133
And I imagine many are simply moving - maybe back to Israel - for “safety.” If there’s any to be had these days.
Same with blacks. Voting for their slave masters.
Unfortunately true.
Shameful...
