By David Singer, published 5/7/2019

Well to begin with AC, I believe in freedom of speech. That is the absolute right of a free people living in a democratic country to openly discuss, or write about, any social or political matter. Under that definition, no person, or no group of people's behaviour, is beyond criticism. So inferring that I am somehow encouraging censorship of your opinions simply by saying that your criticisms of Jews is extreme to the point of being anti semitic, is simply wrong. One link that you gave to me to examine, was from the John Birch Society. This particular group is notorious for being a Christian political organization which was regarded for decades as being fanatically anti Semitic.

Your opinion, based upon the teachings of the John Birch Society, is that there is a secretive coven of Jewish "Illuminati" plotting to take over the world. That looks potty to me. We have seen the same conspiracy theories about the Masons and the Jesuits. At one time, the US government actually believed that there was a room full of International Socialists somewhere, and in that room among the vodka fumes, Cuban cigar smoke, and lemon chicken dishes, they all sat around plotting to take over the world.

Extremist organizations exist within probably every social organisattion known to man. But they are fringe dwellers. Although sometimes they can have influence beyond their numbers purely through their fanatic advocacy. But the Jewish faith is not like the Islamic faith, although there are obvious similarities. The Islamic faith has a holy book which instructs all Muslims to spread their faith through violence and terror. Unless you can come up with similar passages in the Jewish holy book, then your claim that the Jewish faith is plotting to take over the world looks potty to me.

When I was in high school, we were subject to compulsory religious instruction. I can still remember a succession of religious clergy telling me that eventually, the whole world would be Christian. Does this mean that Christianity is plotting to take over the world?

Oh Puleeze....'anti Semitic'....the title has been bandied about so much that it's losing any meaning whatsoever.
Just what interpretation of Semitic are we supposed to focus on when hearing the word??
Everyone is anti something so whether it's Semitic or Christian or Muslim...makes no difference.
Me! I'm just anti stupidity so that about covers everything.
'Israeli Jew' as opposed, to any other Jew, is supposed to be the pinnacle of Jews whereas to my mind the distinction is equivalent to 'Thug' simply because any and all individuals are judged by their actions....not their excuses so when I read that Israeli Jews are the only beings capable of turning desert to an oasis I have to laugh at the moronic stupidity that gave rise to the statement.

To "Special Delivery".

Both Jews and Arabs may both be smart enough to turn desert into oasis, but it is only the Jews who have done it. And they did it without the massive resources that the Arabs have. Perhaps the reason is that the Jews are a lot smarter and more socially cohesive than the Arabs? And they are not as bound by their religious thinking as they by their their scientific thinking?

LEGO...as far as I'm concerned it's religion that has created the very evils that it was supposed to ward off, so spare me the BS.
Anyone can enrich themselves by stealing if they can get away with it.
The British did it for more than a century with India being it's jewel in the crown. The US just continued albeit in a more clandestine way.
The problem with the Arabs is that they're one step behind Christianity and two steps behind the Jews, waiting for another Saladin to propel them to the fore, with their current leaders being more self serving.
In the west the evangelical Christians have this misguided notion that the Jews consider them as equals and all that stands in their way is this Christ character that needs to be reconciled but seeing as he was a Jew after all it's almost a done deal....so they would like to think!
