"Only when they have all gone will Europe truly know what she has lost."

Indeed. And those who ignore the lessons of (German) history are doomed to repeat them.....

[Tijeras_Slim]

Why leave so soon?
I'm sure the French will arrange trains for them when the time comes... they have before. < /s>

Jews (conservative ones) are my personal favorite cultural group. Bring them over here, we could use more.

You must be in a politically correct, conservative-repressed environment to think you have to be "sorry" for getting that out. It all sounded pretty straight-up rational to me.

Personally, I will become tolerant of Islam when there are churches and synagogues in Mecca, Medina, Riyadh, Islamabad, Karachi, Cairo, Khartoum, and similar locales, and the locals aren't trying to burn down the structures and kill the attendees.

Until then, I'm really intolerant of this evil, totalitarian, dictatorial, murderous political system masquerading as a religion.

Agreed. I learned this when I visited Spain a few years ago.....

Since history is known to repeat itself.....

I'd leave France to the snooty French and their ever-growing Muslim population, whom they either embrace or fear --- doesn't much matter either way. France is anti-Semetic.

The French have been strong anti-semites since the 1870's (the Dreyfus affair made it public). They were especially attracted to the Nazi view of Jews and did all they could during the horrendous Vichy period to send the Jews to Nazi extermination camps. Now, the French cater to the 5 million resident Algerians, most of whom hate the Jews. Added to this sad history, it becomes obvious that the French are naturally anti-semite.

The Spanish/Portuguese Jews, pre-Inquisition, produced probably the most brilliant society the Jewish people have ever known, so I guess they would...And, yeah, yeah, I got the joke. ;)

In reading one of Morrison's bios of Columbus I couldn't help but note the delay caused fitting his fleet by ships transporting the newly expelled Jews. I've no doubt some of the cartographers, astronomers, and mathematicians who made Columbus's discovery possible were on board.

By that time though the Eastern and Central European Jews had the definite edge. +++
They produced Karl Marx the communism. They introduced the terrorism in Russia in the end of 19 century.
Surprised? Jews was terrorusts too. Great deal of it.

They participated in so called "russian communism" and ruled Bolshevick party. So called because ethnical russians fought against them. Alexadr Solzhenitsin had written every good novel about that.

A Catholic church in a muslim country!!!! LOL

}Yes, and Judgement Day is coming. The surest milestone of decline of a nation is hatred of the Jews. That is in accordance with the promise of Genesis 12:3 And I will bless them that bless thee, and curse him that curseth thee: and in thee shall all families of the earth be blessed.

There is no question that "Judgement Day is coming". But the link to Genesis is a shakey one.

God was not talking to Jews because there weren't any. Genesis 12 was addressed to Abram who was later renamed Abraham, but Abraham was neither an Israelite nor a Jew. There were no Jews at that time, there were not even any Israelites. There would not be any Jews for another 1,500 years or so.

The French deluded themselves when they thought that Arabs who came to France would become French.

I'm not likely to become tolerant any time soon.
