Thread Name: BS: the Anti-Semitism of the Intellectuals
Subject: RE: BS: the Anti-Semitism of the Intellectuals
I am Jewish - I understand is that we as Jewish people were chosen from other nations to follow in the footsteps of Abraham and obey the commandments of the Torah and its precepts. The classification of Jews as "The Chosen People" and also events surounding the death of Jesus and Christianity has allowed for continued anti-semetism to fester throughout history. I don't know what Liberal or Right wing has to do with all this. Most antisemites and racists I know of are right wingers, but not all by any means. The Republican right wing policies mostly scare me and I have no trust in their lying and mostly hidden agendas.
There is always a risk of renewed and heightened anti-semetism in the world which unfortunately needs to be addressed constantly or we all know what could happen.
