Anti...

Antisemitism is a sorry excuse for hate. It is about as bad as hating blacks just because one hates black color. It makes no sense at all. Small minded people are looking for things to hate like a race, a religion or anything else that is hateable.

Right now, it is the State of Israel and Jews. Ok, Israel is a Jewish state and being Jewish is a religion just like Islam, or Christianity. People who sympathize with Palestine demonstrate on their side and obviously against Israel. In my opinion any Palestinian has the right to demonstrate for their own people. But what irks me is when I see non-Palestinians doing the same. Screaming against Israel.

These are the small minded people I talk about. They are just looking to hate somebody, regardless of who it is. And antisemitism is a perfect subject for their hate. There was really no reason to chase all Jews out of Spain and Portugal in the Middle Ages. It was just jealousy. That same feeling is still around. 

All non Muslims forget that in the unlikely event that Muslims get to power they will exterminate not just the Jews but everybody else who is not Muslim! 

There are many countries where open antisemitism is against the law. This country is hiding behind its constitution, the freedom of speech. Very sad. Collages are the breeding grounds for such and any other "revolutionary" sentiments. It is upsetting that some educational institutions do not condemn these feelings before they grow out of proportions. Today there was something in the news to the fact that the federal government might stop federal money to universities, colleges that do nothing to stop this idiotic rage.

In early 20th century in Hungary, small European country, universities were the breeding ground for antisemitism. That eventually led that country's sick alliance with Nazi Germany which ended tragically for all.

I know that young people make up their own minds, they are opinionated and demanding. I learned this in my own house so making the parents responsible is useless. They adamantly believe that they have the answer to all the world's problems. I think the answer to that is to let them know that their future life might be affected with this kind of behavior. Employers might hesitate to employ people who openly harbor antisemitic and anti Israel feelings. That kind of thing is not part of this society.

Unfortunately, the media is more occupied with the Palestinian casualties that with the Israeli casualties. There is a war going on now, and wars always have casualties. The media must understand this. But they shamelessly go where the stories are regardless of their moral values and that is how they stir up this frenzy of hate.
