So? So what! Everyone is intolerant of anything they perceive as hurting their ethnic cause!
The problem is that basically Tom Lehrer had it right. "...and everyone hates the Jews!" He was making a funny in his song, but there was more than a kernel of truth to it.
There is no shortage of groups who have receive equally inhumane treatment as the Jews. The Hutu/Tutsi massacre, Pol Pot's holocaust, Mao, Stalin, the list goes on and on and on to the begining of time itself.
But, there's a difference. Pol Pot's victims would have fared infinitely better virtually anywhere else but under his regime. Same with Stalin's -- and Mao's tens of millions of victims, and so on. The Jews, however, are pretty much hated wherever they go -- and then they have to suffer the indignity of being accused of having a "persecution complex" and "paranoia" -- or, alternately -- of being "intolerant" of their tormentors.
God, I suspect, does not smile on this.
madrussian is too busy spouting off about his irrational hatred for Israel to listen. The Spartacist League and Zhiranovsky all applaud his words.
Wouldn't you think that in America people should be Americans? Or do you believe that America should consist of people with ethnic causes? The Consistution is sufficient to protect people of different races, ethnicities and religions.

Sounds like paranoia to me.
