Dear Paul,

What got to me was when one of the administrators was
asked why did they kill children? He replied that it
was because of "their blood." I thought - "What?"
He went on to explain it was what was in their veins.
What they would grow up to be. They had to be destroyed.

I could not believe what I was hearing. What kind of "blood"
did they think that Jewish people possessed that was different
from non- Jewish people? Sick. Sick. Sick! Mental degenerates!
As I said - horrific!

They should have questioned what kind of blood they themselves
had to make them think like that.

Paul what radical extreme anti- semetic are you talking about - obviously, the Australian Greens.

"Greens Senator Mehreen Faruqi, has been attending rallies with similarly disgraceful placards. Instead of sexist slogans, these placards are undeniably antisemitic. Some depict Jews as pigs and monkeys, others advocate for the deaths of Israeli civilians via a “third intifada”.

The Australian Greens have an anti - semetic record to destroy Israel.

"Senator Richard Di Natale the former Victorian Greens Senator has previously stated he does not support the existence of Israel as a Jewish state and distastefully used a Parliamentary condolence motion to condemn Nobel Peace Prize winner and former Israeli President Shimon Peres. Senator Di Natale also leading the Greens in demanding a partial boycott of Israel".

Dear Josephus,

If you want to make things better, you don’t point the finger elsewhere. You don’t blame others. You look at what you or those representing you have done.

You are very good at pointing elsewhere. Look at the beautiful words of Jesus. Blame the Catholics, the Roman interpretation of Christianity – anything but confronting the bloody record of Protestant Christianity.

Some Protestants have confronted the dark parts of their religion. Some Protestants have looked at their history and tried to make things better. Jimmy Carter is one of them. Southern Baptists have a history of racism, supporting the KKK, opposing anti-lynching laws, fighting to preserve slavery and other nasty acts. Jimmy Carter, a Southern Baptist, when he was president tried to make up for that. He was a Christian who looked for inspiration from something more basic than the predominant view of his branch of Christianity. As president he advanced civil rights, appointed blacks to important positions, made peace between Israel and Egypt and reversed US imperialism in transferring control of the Panama Canal to Panama. Dietrich Bonheoffer, a Protestant theologian, gave his life in opposing Hitler. John Brown, a Protestant, gave his life in the fight against slavery. He is buried in the Town of North Elba not far from where my grandparents lived, and I have visited his farm which contains his grave. Heed the words of Pastor Niemoller:

First they arrested the Communists - but I was not a Communist, so I did nothing. Then they came for the Social Democrats - but I was not a Social Democrat, so I did nothing. Then they arrested the trade unionists - and I did nothing because I was not one. And then they came for the Jews and then the Catholics, but I was neither a Jew nor a Catholic and I did nothing. At last they came and arrested me - and there was no one left to do anything about it.

You can continue to point your finger elsewhere or you can draw inspiration from those Protestants who tried to make things better.

The ABC report on Bob Brown and his view of Israel.

"The official Australian Greens statement on "Israel/Palestine" is instructive as to the party's propensity for anti-Jewish bias. It calls for the expulsion of all Jewish inhabitants living in the West Bank and East Jerusalem. The de facto result of this policy would be that any newly-created state of Palestine would be an ethnically pure political entity entirely devoid of Jews. By contrast, Israel is a multi-cultural nation whose population includes over 1 million Arab citizens.

The Greens' policies towards Israel reek of rank hypocrisy. And if pejorative double standards imposed on the world's only Jewish state don't constitute a form of ethnic bigotry, then the word antisemitism has lost all practical significance."

I wonder who are the extremsts Paul talks about? Interesting?

david f, is your comment an attempt to silence those that identify from where anti- semetism in Australia is promoted? I thought that was the subject we were discussing.

Be aware I have five Orthodox Jews [15 members] in my family One a Rabbi. Two of the families live in Israel. So how does your accusation apply to me?
