Why do they hate the Jews?
From a Gentile perspective.
I am not a Jew, but still, I ask you - why do you hate the Jews?
It’s not new; why did you not howl on the streets for the Syrians, the Yemenis, the Jordanians, and the Uyghurs? Are their lives not worth your attention?
Why do you hate the Jews?
Are there too many?
But you know who edges out Judaism in religious popularity? Kardecism, yes, those damn Kardecs, always stealing our children for their ceremonies and taking all the excellent banking jobs and starting world wars.
No, there are less than 16 million Jews; that can’t be the problem. Can’t you at least let the Jews build their population to the same level as in 1933?
Why do you hate the Jews?
Have you ever met one?
Strangely, anti-semitic ratings by the Anti-Defamation League put many countries with negligible Jewish populations as the most anti-semitic. Countries with the most prominent Jewish populations have the lowest rating. But not always; Laos is the least anti-semitic country with a rating of .2, and the Philippines is very quiet at 3%.
However, despite diversity being our strength, Canadians don’t have much to boast about, coming in at 15%.
Why do you hate the Jews?
It started thousands a year before 1948. Are they too rich and greedy?
But Judaism commands adherents to give; statistically, they fill up the offering plate more than Protestants, so not that. And if they are rich from banking, it’s because banking and money lending were a safe space; Jews went there because the Catholic church looked down their noses at usury.
Why do you hate the Jews?
Could it be about killing Christ? Nobody even goes to church anymore.
But Christianity would not be Christianity without a resurrection, and it was more a Roman hit job anyway. I don’t see a lot of people screaming Christ killer in front of Domino’s, even though they put those ‘Genuine Italian Pizza’ posters on the glass.
Why do you hate the Jews?
Does their history not scream oppressed? Isn’t oppression the thing? Do they have had to spend their entire history in the chains of slavery? You are sympathetic to the chains of African slaves traded by Arab slave traders; why not the Jews?
Oppression, oppression, oppression. It’s all I hear. Did I get that wrong? Jewish history screams oppressed. Have you never read a history book? I mean, they had some good years. King David took them on a good run. The Temple of Solomon was quite something.
Two hundred years of slavery in Egypt. But with the no swimming allowed, bloody beaches, frogs, lice, flies, dead cows, festering, purulent pussy pustules, hail that today would have put any car insurance company into receivership, locusts, pre-hippie protein sources, darkness like Winnipeg in December and the killing of firstborn children - does that not get them into the sympathy for slavery club?
And even after that, they got chased across the Red Sea and signed up for a lousy timeshare in the desert that took them 40 years to ditch.
Why do you hate the Jews?
They are the only religion that doesn’t proselytize. Have you ever had to be quiet so the Jews would stop ringing the doorbell and leave you in peace with a Torah stuffed in your mailbox?
They left Israel, and you might have wanted them to stay there; yes, that’s true, but many were chased, and it didn’t stop when they were kicked out en masse from England years ago. Nobody likes the winters there anyway, but have you not heard of the pogroms?
Yes, pogroms, it’s not a Polish donut; it’s a massacre; it’s a mini-holocaust that seemed to get lost in history because nobody put it on their Instagram. Was it just one pogrom in one country? Over 300 expulsions.
The Crusades? Christians, or crusaders, finally were exasperated with 700 years of Muslim march and conquest, but why did they have to kill Jews along the way?
In the middle of the 19th century, Jews in North Africa were forced into ghettos, abused, and accused of crimes they didn’t do, including bad weather, lack of rain, too much rain and toenail fungus.
And there were over 100,000 Jews killed in Jewish pogroms in Ukraine from 1918-1921. Only Jews and Armenians could be slaughtered at levels like this and have it forgotten in history and keep missing history textbook publisher’s deadlines. And there were more pogroms in Romania and Hungary.
Why do they hate the Jews?
Everyone thinks it was just the Muslims; no, no Christians were way ahead of them.
Many Christians were so very much, hey, its a plague, hey, blame the Jew, hey, it was too cold, blame the Jew, dry season, stop holding off the rain Jews; hey look, your cousin Edgar says the bad harvest had nothing to do bad luck or using unaged chicken shit for fertilizer. Blame those weird Jewy people, Edgar preached.
Oh yes, “Blame the Jews, blame the Jews” is a jaunty tune that has never fallen off the hit parade, echoing through the ages. A few years ago, Egyptians blamed shark attacks at one of their beaches on Jews.
Why do they hate the Jews?
Is it all the Nobel prizes? Even with Hitler, the Grand Mufti, and much of Europe joining in, they didn’t stop the Nobels.
Why do they hate the Jews?
Hey, the Protocols of the Elders of Zion wasn’t a documentary on the BBC; it was like a bundled plan for anti-semites, giving users the basic charge that Jews were using the blood of Christians in rituals and adding in such hits as the Jews also poisoning wells, starting plagues and looking to take out the Christians.
Why do they hate the Jews?
You feel sorry for a raccoon when it gets hit by a car, but six million out of a total of fifteen million Jews were murdered in the Holocaust. Doesn’t that mean anything?
The Jews had won all the good citizen awards, and they thought that protected them from the Nazis—a big mistake. Neighbours who had lived by a neighbour for generations would turn the neighbour in to get a bigger apartment. Many ethnic enthusiasts trying to impress the new kids in their Hugo Boss uniforms just signed up to kill Jews because they, well, liked killing Jews.
Why do they hate the Jews?
After 1200 were massacred on Oct. 7 in Israel, history’s record skipped, and we heard it again, and the sympathy for Jews and any measure of empathy lasted about 15 minutes. But while the bodies were still warm in Israel, the Jew-hating mobs were forming.
Why do they hate the Jews?
Are folks still mad about Lenin and Trotsky being Jews? Not over it?
But Trotsky and Lenin are still popular and famous on the left, so that can’t be it.
Where does this all start?
What mighty river flows in 2024 Toronto to the modern diversity is our strength Trudeau style university where a boy screams “Fuck Zionists!” at the top of his lungs in the atrium during the afternoon class?
And where the University of Guelph and Guelph-Humber administrators share the anger of a professor, a man with a soul distorted, fouled and shrivelled by hatred.
The professor bursts into a head office.
“This professor has dishonoured and insulted my favourite terrorist group, Hamas,” he screams. He speaks of me. The sympathetic fellow travellers are reaching for the Kleenex box.
“What shall we do, whatsoever shall we do?” the administrators ask as they consider the situation.
“Let’s fire the slanderer,” they shout as they grasp the hands of the Human Rights director.
“Burn the policy books, throw the due process directives into the fire,” they say as they begin to sing to the tune “Do You Hear the People Sing” from Les Miserables.
“But make sure we plant two trees to bring our world back to balance,” one of the lawyers suggests, scratching at the spiked collar around her neck.
Why do they hate the Jews?
I don’t know, but they hate the Jews.
I have not solved this evil riddle, but I am not going to hide; I will not be afraid, I love the Jews, I will always love the Jews, I will not be silent, I will not be broke, fire my ass, I love the Jews.
But let me stand front row beside the Jews, let me raise my hand, do not tell me to be silent, and let me speak.
I wish you would all stop hating the Jews.
My take on why they hate the Jews is the only logical reason, at least in my mind. Otherwise, this thousands year fascination and oppression of Jews makes no sense. It was described in metaphorical form in the Bible, more precisely, the Book of Job. The devil tells G-d the only reason Job worships him is he has showered Job with blessings. He has bribed him to obtain faith, devotion, and love. The devil says let me take them away and see what happens. G-d says OK, but whatever you do you may not kill Job. Although Job is blameless, the devil causes all sorts of calamity to fall upon Job. He loses his family, his wealth, his health, and his friends try to console him by using reason and explaining how he is at fault in some way. But we know he is blameless, it is the work of the devil. In the end, G-d restores Job's health, family, and prosperity. The Jew is Job in the bible. They are blameless, and the devil poisons the minds of men to cause calamity upon the Jews. But G-d will not allow them to be destroyed. Someday, as with Job, G-d will restore the Jews and end this devil spawned hatred.
Holy moly Paul! This is amazing, I laughed a lot despite the chaos and fear I feel. Thank you, for being a righteous human, and for standing with us. 🙏
