It is alright, i still go forth , never going to be assimilated, NEVER! :) bentham :)

everything. Been a while since i've read such a consise and right-on-the-spot article. Now i just wish all the lefties would read it and remember that Plozker is not exactly a right winger-so I would love to hear what Beilinim and Shulas would have to say to that....

Cynical political & religious leaders use anti-Semitism as a tool to manipulate the gullible, the ignorant, & the stupid for their own political ends. It's easier either to distract attention from their own failures or to manufacture a make-believe enemy. Sounds a lot like our neighbors, doesn't it?

ANY RACE. GENTILES ARE JEALOUS PEOPLE AND MAKING LIES ABOUT US JUST SHOWS HOW EVIL THEY CAN BE. BUT IT WONT WORK FOR THEM COS ITS WRITEN AT THE BACK OF THE BOOK THAT WE WIN.

The author is rigtht about certain things, but that can be applied to others as well. Unfortunately, the word "anti-semitism" has begun to lose all credibiity because it's an accusation used to silence any criticisms of Israel or to divert attention away from anything that should be justifiably condemned or criticized. It has become like "the boy who cried wolf." I think what amazes me is reading this article in YNET and at the same time having to read the worst Islamophobic racist article that appears simultaneously here entitled "Our War Against Islam" which reflects the same kind of garbage written in the Nazi newspaper "Der Sturmer" only that one basically attacked Jews. What irony.

of israilthat ocupy the life of arab here .. but sure after the issue of antisemitism i know all the sins that the auther tell in this article and more than these but i do not like to tell .. becouse to me as a palastinian one sin is enough this sin is the ocupation of my land

loathe the state of Israel: Lebanon invasions, "Summer Rain," cluster bombs, "targeted killings," children shot in the head, children wounded and left to bleed to death, land theft, settlments, settler violence, arpartheid wall, stun grenades and rubbercoated steel bullets, sonic boom overflights, laws that split families, house demolitions, collective punishment,settler only roads, endless check points. There is no way all of this can be self defence. It is slow motion ethnic cleansing.

Anti-Semitism is a lie we beleived it! Arabs are semite as well. We need to change our minds and return rights to other people.

Theo Van Gogh was rightly killed because he called Muslims "goat f-ckers". I am ashamed to acknowledge that my grand parents generation and all generations before them never took swords in their hands and did anything to stop Anti-Semitism ! by not doing anything millions of Jewish children were murdered !

You sound like a reincarnate of Hitler, only he thought that Aryans had the highest mentality and in a sense were the chosen people and that Jews were the evil. It's come to a point that this kind of statements do not surprise me anymore. Just remember that Germany was not a third-world country and supposedly civilized with many people of high IQ's also, like Dr. Mengele. Shows you what such intelligence can do.

Congrats...First time I heard a secular hebe start talking sense....My worry it wont last...So the kick ass will have to continue.

why the world hate the jews ? we need clear answer on this question, answer that show the good thing and the bad things , jews did it in the past , to keep others continue hates them..

...to express Jew Hate.

he does not deserve the title, the state provided job, or reputation. Universities should not extend academic freedom to include bad, bigoted research. That was never the intention of academic freedom.

you were wrong about the Our War with Islam article and you are wrong here.The Nazi propoganda was the tool of the agressors. Analysing the moslem threat to us is the tool of the prey. Had we had a voice then, should we not have prostested? Calling trash and evil what it is the perogative of the honest, but what care you for truth?

"the word "anti-semitism" has begun to lose all credibiity" Let's just call you what you are, JEW HATER.

You are sick, really. Considering what Theo van Gogh said, you have to consider that goat-doer was just a slight variation on sheep-doer, a common nickname for his own religious group. If there is anything we can learn from Muslims, it could be what good their religion is NOW. For every half-witted attempt to explain that we hear 10 insults and 20 threats.

The only thing left for humanity to do is now totally abolish money, and live in a peaceful brotherhood of man for the next thousand years! The kingdom of G-d within us all must now be made a physical reality: down with the rich capitalist slavers! Amen.

So true and well said.

THE reasonJews are hated is because the Church taught their young constituents that Jews killed Jesus, -- and all the subsequeent lies that came from that. The church HAD TO PROVE that Christianity was the NEW TESTAMENT between God and man, and that the OLD TESTAMENT was no longer valid. If they could not PROVE this to their followers they could not gain strength. Read the book, "Why The Jews" by Telushkin.....The jews dont so anything.

God wanted Jews to possess all faces of humanity in this world and to ultimately unite Mankind as one. I believe it is the Torah, which preserved and maintain the Jews existence and spirit throughout the times. Even though the majority of Jews have kept away from the Book of life and had to assimilate in order and to avoid oppression, or for other reasons, today,Jews should feel proud of their miraculous and worldly accomplishments! At the same time, They should remain humble and righteous. Long lives Israel!

Marlene a Jew hater ? No , she only tells lies about us , hates everything we are doing , or not doing , if we say white , she says black , on every subject she tells us we are wrong , hatefull , racists and so on . For her a community [ yishuv kehilati ] is a town . And she dares even to tell us she Jewish [ or partly ] But antisemite or Jew hater , Marlene ? Champion hater all categories she is .

"The foolishness of the book's publication does not justify the hysteria surrounding it." Allow me to disagree with the term "hysteria". Is it hysteria to denounce for example the following? News just in from Croatia, Sever: "Pozega, Feb 19, 2007 (BBC Monitoring via COMTEX) -- Police in the town of Pozega, some 150 kilometres east of Zagreb, have launched an investigation to determine if the local company "Pinki" is linked with the distribution of sugar sachets with anti-Semitic messages and a drawing of Hitler." Now you can have your coffee with sugar sachets and the devil's face on it along the Adriatic riviera! Anti-semitism and hysteria contradict each other. We have to stamp out anti-semitism with the greatest strength everywhere it may appear! No second thoughts..! Just do it! We discuss later...

and let Palestinians have one too! I am against many of the policies and actions of the government of Israel (like their apartheid-like treatment of Palestinians). I also oppose some of the actions taken by the Jewish Lobbies in Canada and the USA (banning of books, silencing speakers by getting their talks cancelled, threatening to withhold donations if someone they object to comes to speak). My criticisms have nothing to do with anti-semitism. What arrogance in some of the feedbacks. Patronizing others is not the best way to make friends either. Guess objecting to your put-downs is anti-semitic too.

All media seem to ignore that Toaff is Italian, and son of the former Rabbino di Roma, Toaff. A painful time for this father, as we can imagine. He deserves all our sympathy. Crystal K. (from Milan)

But you are wrong, since I do not hate myself However, my thank you is directed to you and some other posters here who exactly proved my point that the cry of anti-semitism is just about directed at anyone or everyone who dares to make any criticisms. Sort of like a knee-jerk reaction that's uncontrollable. Again, my thanks for your participation in proving my point .

We KNOW Tom Hardaway is anti-gay because he said, "I hate gay people." We KNOE Mel Gibson is an anti-semite because he came out and said it. He really does think "Jews killed Jesus." But these days the anti-semite label does get overused. It seems like all it takes to be labeled an anti-semite is for someone to oppose Israeli interests. If an American politician doesn't vote for the legislation AIPAC wanted they call her a terrorist supporter, and then all the other pro-Israel groups jump on and call her an anti-semite. It totally weakens the label for me. Whenever I hear that someone is "anti-semitic" all I know for sure is that whatever they did is bad for Israel... it doesn't tell me that they have a bad heart, or they are a bad person. It didn't use to be like that. It's only been in the last five years or so the label has started to become meaningless-- because it's become way overused. Just now some girl said that she thought that there can be legit. criticism of Israel and right on cue, someone else says she's a "jew hater." Really? She hates ALL Jewish people? She has a totally rotten heart, and you could just from that?? Yes, some people oppose you. They have their reasons, and they're entitled to act in their own self-interest. That's what everyone does. So what? That's life. The Yankees are not anti-baseball for opposing the Mets. It's a game. There are teams. People want their team to win-- that's how life is and you do the same thing. It might be a great way to censor people that oppose you, but it's not legitimate to call people anti-semites at the drop of a hat. In fact, to do so is, if I may say, a little anti-gentile. It assumes that only other Jewish people can oppose you without being a bad person-- and that's just totally racist. You silent people who also think it's bullshit, speak up now and then. If don't think Jimmy Carter really has it in for you, and if you don't really think he has a bad heart, why not jump his shit in other more legitimate ways. I know that's harder to do, but you'll probably convince more people that your right. Take the extra time and blast him for screwing it up, not for being a "bad person." Same with our rep. She's supposed to represent Americans, not Israel...she's just doing her job. Okay? Thanks. Love and peace-- seriously good luck with everything.
