31. How about Canada?
Bruno ,   EU/US   (02.19.12)
Quite tired opf hearing about Jews beeing disliked in Europe..how about Canada? That country has inherited all the dislike which "used to be" prevalent in the British society. Judges, banks, regulators,. even some journalists are always very prompt to defame or condemn Jews
32.  Rav Sizer or Rev Sizer
Havlei Hoemos ,   Eilat, Israel   (02.19.12)
The original was Rev Sizer....
33. Aw come on guys
Wisdom ,   UK   (02.19.12)
You get rabbis that are wrong, we got stuck with Stephen Sizer, the Guildford Diocese has problems that would attract an argumentative individual with no understanding and not filled with ha ruach kodesh. Do us the courtesy of knowing the difference between real men of God and fakes.
34. Thank you Meotti!
Andrew Levin   (02.19.12)
35. You are a fine man, Meotti!
Gábor Fränkl   (02.19.12)
And every word of yours is true. I only wish they weren't. But the English are English...
36. Why is anyone surprised?
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (02.19.12)
Blood libel was invented in England, after all -- Hugh of Lincoln -- and England earns pride of place as the first country in Europe to expel its Jewish population. The White Paper; that was also British, wasn't it? Some things never change.
37. Belonging to a church, any church or...
Eaglebeak ,   Left Coast, USA   (02.19.12)
being the leader of one does not make anyone a Christian. # 26 and # 30 are correct. A Christian is one who follows Jesus and worships the God of the Jews.
38. How come Queen Elizabeth ll has never visited the Holyland
An EX UK Jew ,   Jerusalem   (02.19.12)
in 60 years. She is the one who on the advice of her Prime Minister's like spin Tony Blair ( I am a good friend of Israel), Gordon Brown (I admire the Jewish People) etc have advised her NOT to visit here. The Anglican Church of England has gone Muslim as its religious bind to the population declines - its always good to blame the Jews is their view. From now on we cannot trust them - beware of them and particularly Blair the failed UK Prime Minister
39. Is this quote correct?
observer   (02.19.12)
“Rav (!) Sizer has a long track record of arguably anti-Semitic behavior.”? Is mr sizer a rabbi?? The name is not English, but ... Incidentally he argues on his sites that he is not anti-semetic but is anti-secular-Israel. It is worthwhile seeing what he has to say for himself to balance the bias in the article. But a rabbi he is not - yet.
40. To N 30 and others.
Luiz F Haddad ,   Niteroi, Brazil   (02.20.12)
You are right, my brother from Norway. True Christians love and endorse Jewish people and the State of Israel. The ones which have opposite feelings, or attitudes, are, at least, ignorants and full of prejudices. Our God is the same. Jesus, for us, is His only begotten Son, and for the Hebrews, I am sure, he was a good and wise man. Hence, we have to work together. Past ugly shadows will never be repeated. We say like you about Holocaust: NEVER AGAIN.
41. To: No. 39
Sarah B ,   U.S.A. / Israel   (02.19.12)
There is no difference between anti-Semitism and anti-Israel sentiment. Israel has a dual identity -- Israel the land and Israel the people (that would be the Jews). If I had a nickel for every time someone claims that they are not anti-Semitic, they are only anti-Israel, I could have retired a decade or two ago.
42. 9 You want 'Christians' to condone Israel mass murder
lydia ,   Brisbane   (02.19.12)
To condone Israel land theft and Israel numerous UN violations, because you say 'Christ was a Jew" Note modern day 'Jewish' converts demanding more rights to Palestine than Palestinians?
43. Anglican Church in the UK
Mike caton ,   USA   (02.19.12)
This article borders on the irrelevant, since with each passing day, the Anglican Church in the UK is becoming increasingly IRRELEVANT amongst the British. More than half of all British are no longer Christian and pay no attention whatsoever to what the Anglican Church advocates or does not advocate. The UK is a post-Christian country. It is Islam that is now the most powerful religion in the UK, if not yet in terms of sheer numbers , surely in terms of strong adhesion and deep belief. The Anglican Church in the UK is well on the way t becoming Kaput.
44. Better: Christians who hate Jesus, the Jew.
Steve   (02.19.12)
45. Christians Who Hate Jews, Church of England
William Dawes ,   Washington, USA   (02.19.12)
There is no "influential Church of England" vicar. The Chuch of England is an empty shell. It is a collection of empty buildings. The hierarchy of the church is a collection of leftist government functionaries who are just as socialist as any state bureaucracy. The genuine Christians have left the state church of Elizabeth II, just as Christians of the Anglican tradition have left the Episcopal Church in the United States. The fact that the Church of England still exists is based on its legal status and support from the taxpayers of England. As a source of religious influence, as a source of spiritual strength for the English people, the Church of England is a non-entity. Consequently, this article has things totally BACKWARDS: the Marxist chic of which anti-Semitism is a part uses the Fabian Socialist Archbishop of Canterbury and his Leninist priest minions as cover; it's NOT the other way around.
46. y-net
David ,   USA/Israel   (02.20.12)
y-net, don't you think Isra'el and the Jewish people have enough enemies? It seems you will print anything to cause hate and discontent between Christians and Jews. Any Christian who writes in support of truth has their posts edited. I know, it happens to me every week. They will allow the most vile and terror filled posts from Isra'el's enemies but let a Christian say something back to Isra'el's enemies in support of Isra'el and they will not release the comment for publication. Shame on you y-net.
47. Nothing like a Jew? how about a christian
Yossi   (02.19.12)
IF what Meotti writes is true, the christians have been the most revered sadistic criminals for over 2000 years. The crusades just another vicious slaughterhouse for Jews and muslims. The Inquisition was for Jews only. The venom spewed by christian vipers in 1190, was another hatred displayed toward JESUS (like it or not. he was a Jew).Today's UK clerics are no more than vulgar, sex crased, hypocrites; pompous deviants wearing pompous outfits, adorned in gold chains, gold rings, gold crosses (earings missing). Interestingly enough,RaEl-Assad and Naim Attic, both promote a theology severing any links between the Jewish god Jesus, the Jews, and stupid christians who refuse conversion to judaism.--- Difficult to convert deviants.Guilford Sizer, Christopher Hill. Rowan Williams, and the other rif-raf are just idiot following today's trend. Tomorrow? Qui sait?
48. # 3
Birdi ,   Israel & proud of it   (02.19.12)
Sizer is an anti-semite & does not try to hide it. He has promoted a website that supports Holocaust denial & warns of a Zionist conspiracy of controlling the world. Meotti is not creating ''hate tales'' he is telling it like it is. Not only does he make sense, he is telling the truth in his article. You are the one who disbelieves him. That's entirely your choice as you are the brainless one, not us.
49. # 31
Birdi ,   Israel   (02.20.12)
So howcome your Prime Minister is pro-Israel??
50. Eric#1-
Dave ,   Canada   (02.19.12)
Can you play a tune on your xenophobe?
51. #15 Rivkah
David ,   USA/Israel   (02.20.12)
Your theology leaves a lot to be desired. Your comment about Ephraim and Dan being left out of the Kingdom is false. The text only leaves them out of the 144,000 chosen witnesses. Have you read the last few chapters of Ezekiel? Look it over, you will see they have their land allotment along with the other Tribes.
52. the great contradiction
cristian ,   argentina   (02.20.12)
christians who hate jews,they hate jesus because he is jewish ,and jews who hate christians hate themselves because the christ is a jew
53. To N 24
Luiz F Haddad ,   Niteroi, Brazil   (02.20.12)
Dear Geof from London. For a true Christian, God loves too much His Jewish sons, and He loves, also, all people that uphold His commandments, including without a visible faith. Hates, ignorance and prejudices are human weaknesses. Our Father is perfect and full of Justice. Salutes.
54. To Mr's Sarah B
Luiz F Haddad ,   Niteroi, Brazil   (02.20.12)
Dear Mr's Sarah B. Don't forget the Balfour Declaration, that helped too much Zionist movement in order to create Israelian State; nor Prime Minister Winston Churchill on the struggle against Nazist Germany. Britain has not only historical shadows. There were some good deeds. Salutes.
55. Will Love The Muslims
Dan ,   USA   (02.20.12)
They had better get used to loving the Muslims who are poised to take over England in the coming years.
56. The previous Archbishop of Canterbury said he is ashamed to
PETER SM ,   AUSTRALIA   (02.20.12)
be Anglican watching the performance of these clowns who inter alia want to incorporate Sharia into British law,despite the EU court of Human rights ruling that Sharia is incompatible with democracy
57. Hebrew speaker the post war Jewish population is DOWN by
PETER SM ,   AUSTRALIA   (02.20.12)
40%. Britain has made its bed,they cant even deport at terrorist who entered the country illegally and incitement against Britain goes on openly in some Mosques and groups like Islam 4 UK. British Muslims fight British soldiers in Afghanistan, Muslim groups abuse returning British servicemen and go to Pakistan for terrorist training. British PC fellow travellers have pulled the rug from under Britain and it is probably too late. The no go areas are not going anywhere and enforced Hallal etc etc on the majority is here to stay . The threats to the Jewish community are all of the above as well as the traditional establishment contemp for Jews that is part of the history of Britain.
58. the biggest contradiction
cristian ,   argentina   (02.20.12)
christians who hate they are contradictory because jesus taugh the commandment to love one neighbor as oneself which was taken from leviticus 19 and jews who hate they are contradictory because love one neighbor as oneself is written in leviticus 19 as the christ has taught
59. Psalm 122:6 (KJB1611)
smith ,   NYC, USA   (02.20.12)
Christians shouldn't doubt God's plan for Israel. If an Anglican doesn't agree with his or her Anglican leader they should leave the denomination. Denominations don't save people, even if they have 77 mil. members. www.foi.org
60. Never forget Britain's crimes against the Jews:
BUTSeriously ,   Sydney   (02.20.12)
1. Corruption of the Balfour and carving off 80% of the small land allocated for the Jews - for 30 barrels of oil. 2. Implementing the WHITE PAPER which send Jewish refugees back t the camps. 3. Calling a 3-state as a 2-state today. 4. Transferring the name Palestinians from Jews to those panting for another holocaust. Britain is become a Shariah regime because: AT LEAST THE NAZIS WERE HONEST ABOUT IT.
