Time for Democrats to Address Their Anti-Semitism Problem

[Fenris]

You're either with the Left or you must literally be destroyed by any means necessary.

I mean, you're not wrong here. But anti-Semitism is unique and is always morphing and changing. In this particular case, we have an historically oppressed minority being oppressed by the very people who claim to speak up for minorities. And not because they oppose leftist values. Their values are irrelevant to the matter at hand. There's no ideological purity test being administered. There's just Jews being attacked in speech by Democrat politicians and attacked on the street without anyone thinking it's a problem.

The anti-Semitism problem is huge and needs to be addressed. I fully agree with that. But it's a symptom of a disease that needs cured before it kills everyone.

I agree, it is a symptom of something worse. It's an attack both on biblical values and also on anyone being different. Any society that rejects those is bound to turn much uglier. A society that gets bad for Jews always- always- gets bad for others after.

[Redeemed]

Agreed.

It's time for Americans, no matter their political bent, to start standing up for ourselves and saying "Stop the insanity."

After the fall of Jerusalem 70-135 AD Christians in some places retained a positive view of the Jewish People, even though the Jews had rejected their religion. They were recognized as being "People of the Book." It's a sad commentary on the Church that gradually, as the hope of Israel's restoration faded, Christians began to turn on the Jewish People. Even leaders I like engaged in this, either consciously or unconsciously.

But over time, it can be argued whether a break from Catholic hegemony or Leftist idealism helped Christians start to make peace with the Jewish People again. Regardless, many Evangelicals today support the cause of national Israel and the cause of the Jewish People.

As a Christian I believe that evil attacks anything associated by covenant with the one true God. This attachment to God's word brings upon the Jewish People atrocities and various forms of persecution. Even if they don't claim to be orthodox in their beliefs, they are attacked simply because they are associated, by God, with His word. Those who hate God's word will hate God's people.

There is no rational explanation for this other than it is evil. It must be fought and exposed. Thanks for helping in this cause, Fenris. Your friendship with Christians is noteworthy!

And I love them for so doing.

We both want the same thing: A world unified under God's rule. Let's work towards this goal together, as the brothers in faith that we are.

Amen! I just this moment finished watching on Fox Nation a program entitled "Battle in the Holy Land," narrated by Pete Hegseth. Pete did a great job of showing the effort, on the ground, of non-political people just trying to live, do business, and prosper, apart from all of the politics. You would have to be a member:

Of course, the reality is, one group or the other in charge (Israeli or Palestinian) may prohibit the other from economic/religious advantages. The reality is, Israel is there, and Islam has tried, unsuccessfully, to keep a Jewish State from existing and prospering.

The reality is, Europe has sanctioned, with their power, the existence of Israel, and now it lies within Middle Eastern powers themselves to determine, if they can, what will result. Western values would not allow Islamic imperial doctrines to swallow up either Jewish or Christian communities, if those communities have already been given political status and protection by Israel.

I think it's critical that Jews maintain a firm connection with the U.S., and support the political party that protects the rights of Israel to survive, and to thrive. Presently, I think Trump's doctrine was more favorable to the Jewish State. As a Conservative Republican, I not only distrust Biden, but I intensely dislike him as well. But he also is a reality that has to be acknowledged--at least until he can be unseated.

However, it's probably wise for Israel to remain friendly, if possible. with both Republicans and Democrats, and just ride current pro-Israel policies and programs until something better evolves.

At that time Jesus said in response: "I publicly praise you, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because you have hidden these things from the wise and intellectual ones and have revealed them to young children. Yes, O Father, because this is the way you approved." (Mathew 11:25-26)

Not everyone saying to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter into the Kingdom of the heavens, but only the one doing the will of My Father who is in the heavens will. (Matthew 7:21)

I Agree with everything that you've said here.

Do you think you could explain your point a little bit better? I'm not sure what you are trying to say here.

The Democratik Nazionale Commitburo does not see any need to address their anti-Semitism problem, because to them, it is not a problem.

They raise, literally, billlllllllions of dollars from anti-Semites, anti-Christians, anti-Caucasian, anti-heterosexual, anti-everything lunatics to fund their Wilsonian capital "P" "Progressivism" aka Marxism.


The amazing thing to me is how many people of both Jewish heritage and Jewish faith (and no, the two are not synonymous) support the National Socialist Democratik Commitburo both with votes and $$$.
