Why is anti-Semitism so popular and pleasurable as a persistent
behavior pattern all over the world? People who care about the fate
of the Jews are always searching for subtle, indefinable reasons to
explain the intensity of anti- Jewish hostility and hate. The
simple truth is that the answer is far from mysterious.
As a matter of fact, the answer is so obvious that you’d have to
brainless not to see it. Everyone knows that whatever the crime
committed against any Jew, the only price you’ll pay will be the
price of the ride to the crime scene and back. Instead of blaming
the criminals, the Jews will get involved in an orgy of self-blame
and guilt. And after blaming themselves, they’ll start blaming each
other. Somebody will be screaming, “It’s your own fault! Why would
you be walking in front of a Muslim mosque at 2 a.m.,” and the
other one will argue, “Why would I think they would recognize that
I am Jewish,” and another voice yells, “At least you could’ve been
smart enough to wear sneakers!” Then somebody says, “Let’s report
this to the police,” while somebody else is saying, “Are you
crazy? What if they find out we reported it? Do you want
to get us all killed? Right now they don’t know who we are. Let’s
just get out of the neighborhood!”
It’s because anti-Semites are aware that these are the typical
reactions of the Jews to any violence committed against them, that
they feel free to attack any Jew whenever they please. Is it any
accident that all over England you hear a stream of attacks against
Jews, but you never hear any attacks against Muslims? (I know that
even right now, you the reader are trembling in fear of what I
might write about the Muslims.)
Is it any accident that British MP Mrs. Clare Short in the House
of Commons attacked the Jews as vicious racists when their only
crime she could think of is that the Jews still exist, which she
considers an offense to human decency? What right do they have to
try to live in peace with the Arabs and constantly thwart every
attempt of the Palestinian suicide bombers to annihilate their
whole population? She claimed that the Jews practice an even more
egregious form of apartheid than what existed in South Africa. Why
does she call it apartheid, when every Arab has equal access in
every school, to every job, every health-care service, and every
unemployment benefit? Currently, they even hold office in the
Israeli parliament and every other branch of the Israeli
government.
Is Mrs. Short so ignorant that she doesn’t know that none of
these opportunities would be granted to any Jew living in an Arab
nation? Besides, how would a Jew be able to achieve any of these
same opportunities when in most cases, it wouldn’t even be safe for
a Jew to live there? But Mrs. Short, as anti-Semites all over the
world know, you never suffer any consequences by attacking Jews. If
anti-Semites really thought that Jews could be a menace of any
kind, they would cower in fear as they now do to the Muslims. When
was the last time that an Englishman made a hateful speech against
Muslims? People are so fearful of Muslims, that there’re even
afraid to say hello without apologizing. English people are now
begging forgiveness from Muslims for things they don’t even
remembering doing.
Unlike the Jews of England, who spend all their time pleading
just to be accepted in this country, the Muslims spend much of the
time making demands and warning the people that they better be
careful to respect them, be concerned how loud they talk to them,
and not to criticize them. You also dare not paint the wrong
cartoon, sing the wrong song, say the wrong thing, look the wrong
way, or even laugh without an explanation. The Jews will never
survive if they don’t learn a great lesson from the power of the
Muslims.
Isn’t it amazing that after committing so many acts of violence
all over the world, not only are the Muslims not suffering for it,
but actually the reverse has happened? They are the ones being
treasured, respected, and venerated while every one is bowing to
them in cowardly fear of the next possible attack. The Jews merely
have to exist in order to generate ant-Semitism. Anti-Semites hated
the Jews when they had nothing, and now they hate the Jews because
of the claim that they have everything. No matter what the reason
and even if it can’t be called a reason, it becomes reason enough
to hate a Jew.
If this world had the same fear of the Jews that it has of the
Muslims, the attacks on the Jews would never have existed. People
never feel threatened when attacking a Jew because he’s a little
guy with glasses carrying a briefcase, and in case of an attack, he
won’t pull out a gun, he’ll take out a fountain pen. He won’t be
ready to shoot the attacker, he’ll be busy looking for a piece of
paper to write his name down. The attacker always knows that when
his victim is a Jew, he won’t get hit or hurt. The Jew won’t fight.
He’ll cry, beg, scream or run. The attacker knows he can’t lose
life or limb because the victim can’t fight, he’s only preparing to
sue. Now this describes the Jews outside of Israel. If the Jews in
the Diaspora continue to follow this pattern of traditional
helplessness, instead of behaving in accordance to the new pattern
of behavior of the Israelis, who are ready to fight and survive at
any price, they will be doomed to be hounded by anti-Semitism for
the rest of their lives. This how they must behave, even if it
infuriates this yenta, the right honorable Mrs. Clare Short.
