Dutch premier blasts anti-Semitism    European Jewish Press
1. spiritual suicide
This last paragraph was the subject of an article on page 3 in the Volkskrant paper yesterday. It was commented on critically by another rabbi(Soetendorp) and by mr. Naftaniël from centre of information and documentation Israël.

2. ?? keep the RACE PURE!!
I am sorry- but these jews only wanting to marry other jews is so similar to Hitlers keeping the aryan race pure- do jews think they are the only ones on this planet that can be racists?????????

3. Anti-semitic Palestinians/Arabs step forward
I'm waiting to read a comment along the lines of: "Israel is a racist / nazi state" something along those lines. If thats so then we should start exterminating you vermin wholesale just as most countries would have done by now. If you feel like that then I advise you to tattoo your arms and first torture then gas / shoot your whole family before starving / beating yourself to death. When everyone in "Palestine" has done that you can blame Israel and call us Nazis.

No it is not a matter of keeping the lineage pure and your equating it to Hitler is only showing that you are emotionally an antisemite. Jews shuould marry other Jews because we want that there should be Jews. in the future. When Jews intermarry they tend to fade into the woodwork and disappear, much like the Jews of China. I suggest reading Peony by Pearl Buck. It shows what happens when Jews intermarry.

without name calling- which I highly doubt you,. as a jew are capable of- the old- you're an anti semite!!!! being so infamous these days- The same philosophy could be said the ARYANS were teaching to WHITE europeans-. If Whites inter minlge- the white culture (ie' Mozart- Beethoven, Van gogh, Newton, Da vinci,etc etc.) will disappear into the woodwork- becoming part black,jew, muslim,latin, etc.- jews DO NOT HAVE THE MONOPLY ON RACISM. and saying Jews should only mate with jews is a race based ideology- after all jews dont even let Madonna become jew.

6. #2 & #5 G-D in the Bible told Jews to only marry other Jews
Do you want to criticize G-D?

"without name calling- which I highly doubt you,. as a jew are capable of" If your looking to call something racist, there it is. As for Jews wanting other Jews to marry Jews, nothing racist there, anyone can convert to Judism. Even Madonna, but she doesn't want to (and thats fine, just stop misrepresenting actual Judism). #5, you see the problem isn't that too many people are being called anti-semite, the problem is there are too many anti-semites. Every now and then someone is called an anti-semite who doesn't deserve it, but your comment, insinuating that Jews are by nature name-callers, is anti-semitic.

Its erroneous to compare Jews to Whites. There are around 12-14 million Jews on the planet and how many whites? A billion +. The Jewish population has suffered the loss of a third of its population through the Holocaust. Your perspective here is vigorously skewed to say the least. Additionally, how are you defining "white". its hardly a religion now is it? In fact there are white Jews so this fact alone seems to render your whole philosophy visavis jews imitating nazi aryan ideology by wishing to marry within their own people, totally flawed. notably, you choose not to identify yourself which based on your pseudo-racist beliefs, leads us to believe that you lack the confidence to stand by your own strange opinion.

according to jews and the right of return- the jew came from a semitic race in the middle east- jews came from israel ,jews claim,and had a common religion too- so it is not erroneous to compare whites- from the continent of europe- mostly christian and pagan - what the heck do you want- both ways? or, if you now conveniently claim jew is a religion- then is not Israel a religion based state like the muslim countries?

10. Response to 9
See http://www.mfa.gov.il/MFA/MFAArchive/1950_1959/Law%20of%20Return%205710-1950 You'll see there that the word "Jew" is defined, but in no place is it defined as having "come from the semitic race in the middle east". It's just not there. Further, in 1970 the law was revised to include people in the law of return who, according to the definition in the law, are recognized as non-Jews. Lastly, yes Israel is to some degree a religion based state, more like Turkey prior to the current regime ruled by an Islamic party than Saudi Arabia. Judaism is both a religion and a "Nation", but not in any racist sense, meaning your not going to find that we're all with the same skin color or hair or facial features. We are a multi-racial Nation. If you're not comfortable with that definition of "Nation", that's your prerogative but I find it odd that if you do, it's the Jews you're calling "racist".

11. 6 Linda - Then why did Boaz marry Ruth, the Moabitess?
Of the Moabites, the abominable people, according to Torah. And why did Moses not marry a Jew? Were the wives of Isaac and Jacob halachaly "Jewish" or practicing "Jews"? According to your comments, these men were law-breakers and sinners.

12. Liz Taylor & Sammy Davis Jr. both Jewish
How silly to say that Judiasm is racist. If Jews want their kids to marry other Jews its no different than Catholics wanting their kids to marry other Catholics (which is fine). The fact is Jews are not a race, and they accept people of all races. Liz Taylor was Jewish and so was Sammy Davis, Jr. Now tell me all you geniuses out there, were they of the same race?
