Subject: RE: BS: What does 'anti-semitism' mean?
Many of you Europeans may simply assume the anti-Semitism you encounter or engage in your neck of the woods does not exist in the US in ways similar to what you may feel.

While it is true there are the fringe white supremacists and average bigots who need a reason to feel good about themselves there is not the overt animus that Europeans have.

No one here would ever imagine any harm to come to story tellers like Spielberg or our representatives like Bernie but I can't say the same of Wall St.. If anything the executive Jewish CEO's betray tenants of Judaism and main St. US by way of exporting jobs and wealth in the name of globalism. No different than most of the 1%.

Floyd Blankenstein, Gary Cohen, Steven Friedman are not exactly heros to faith or country except to other 1 percenters like Jamie Diamond and John G Stumpf who can be cast as traitors to Christian values

Perhaps America does not have to deal with the guilt Europeans must resolve somehow, or even face. Of course for those who deserve guilt .
Americans see themselves as liberators.
