I wish they'd shut the fuck up about it, there are far more important things going on.
Presume you mean this in which is quoted
So, in fact, no actual rise.
Either way, the number is the highest since WW2 which is terrifying I think.
Dear, it's not a competition
It just happens that Disillusioned's and my claims have been bagatelised when it's now printed in black on white.
I don't expect them too.
On the other hand most of these people are not someones who'd I'd want to associate with on a private matter.
And yes, I do have friends who are socialist. And yes, I do have friends who don't agree with Israel (none of them are vandals though).
Does anyone actually know somewhere we can find a comparison?
Because that we're human beings and make as much noise as any other group would do under similar circumstances.
Because our great-grandparents faced the Kozaks. Because our grandparents faced Nazism. Because our parents faced Communism. Because we apparently won't be the first generation not to face some sort of opposition.
Maybe you shut up, instead of dictating others to do so all the fucking time?
And while you're at it learn to read?
I JUST stated that we're making just as much noise as any other group would do under similar circumstances. What in that statement is it that you don't understand?
Though I like your logic. See if it was true I could go on "I am Jewish, therefore I demand all the diamonds in the world". Seriously, stop dissecting everything I say just because it's me. Your not gaining anything.
actually...
News headlines will be news headlines, they're not trying to inform people, they're trying to sell. Gossip sells, apparently
Because one of the things we missed according to the independent is an apparent rise in anti-semitism.
Oh
83 physical attacks against Jewish persons, 4 of which were life threatening. But no context - no evidence that people were attacked because of their ethnicity .
It goes on to state:
Hmmmmm....... again, no actual examples.
So, the CST spokeswoman says that the situation in the Middle East is "fuelling the unprecedented rise" - how is it unprecedented?
Anti-semitism was worse in times go by.
Now, she gets to the nub of it:
So, just over a quarter of the 532 incidents can be said to have a "clear anti-Zionist or anti-Israel motivation"
International headlines after 124 cases where there is clear "anti-semitic" or "anti-zionist" motivation......
I suspect that may be more noise than most make.
The CST spokeswoman appears to support the argument that zionism is the real enemy of the jews today.
Yes lukesh, the Guardian.
Now have a look at the quotes - I think you'll find the source is the CST.....
Your point was what exactly?
You're just wasting everyonres time....... again
No that was a reasoning to why it bothers us so much to see a pattern evolving. Not to the fact that we can moan about it just because we're Jews, and others can't because they're not.
Context.
Personally I've heard quite a bit about the rise in these kinds of attacks in Europe, which is concerning, and baffling.
Its just a shame, Israel's actions relfect on all Jews, which makes even less sense than American government actions reflecting on Americans, but it happens.
Sometimes you have to move on, ignore the pattern and deal with the problems today. But I don't want an argument, I'm just saying in a general way. Anyway, perhaps you should start a new thread, because this one has gone dangerously off course. We dont want every thread to be about Jews and anti-semitism, I'm sure it gets on your nerves as much as it does everyone elses.
No. She was trying to continue her ways of nitpicking everything I say just for the sake of it. Had I been stating something about people with black hair and brown eyes, then no doubt would she go against that too.
Make a search, and you'll clarly notice it.
Why she does it? Because I am obviously racist and am a sexist.
So, are there any places we can find out about racist incidents against other ethnic groups?
Erm, we are discussing the problems today. To understand my and other's (obviously not on this site :rolleyes: ) reaction, you must know the past.
+ If people didn't want these threads, then they wouldn't respond to them.
No, I am not
But yes if you have already judged me a racist, sexist, then idiot would just decorate my buisness card even further.
Though if that's all you can resort to, then bring it on.
In fact they should do it more often. I wish they'd come up with something like that when Saint Diana died, or when the Queen Mother passed away, or every time a little girl is killed by a paedophile and the whole of the media goes into overdrive for two weeks on the trot...
