Offensive subject line.

Grammatically speaking it reads like the unintentional set up to a slur and classic propaganda diatribes.

The correct phrasing is “Jewish People”, and perhaps “To the Jews”.

To the Jew first

Offensive subject line. Grammatically speaking it reads like the unintentional set up to a slur and classic propaganda diatribes.

"For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek....There will be tribulation and distress for every human being who does evil, the Jew first and also the Greek, but glory and honor and peace for everyone who does good, the Jew first and also the Greek."
-- The Apostle Paul, Romans 1:16, 2:9-10

Good people are on all sides of this hotly debated topic.

The above line is classic "liberal elite". It's code for 'there is no right or wrong'. Which is bull. I didn't follow the jump ... but doubt it got saner.

Oh, and there are differences - the Jewish people created a sane modern, G-d based, democratic culture - which is good. And too many Arabs act like their religion is a control freak death cult with the added benefit of being able to bully women. Yeah, and it's totalitarian - not democratic. Sorry, but that's NOT equal, not the same, and good people aren't on both sides...
