My experience with anti-semitism is almost exactly like yours, John. As an evangelical Christian, I know that Jesus was crucified as part of God's plan to bring salvation to us sinners, it was the ultimate sacrifice of the perfect lamb. Since Jesus was born Jewish and lived his entire life in Israel, it's no surprise that He would be killed by the powers that be, and that included of course the poly theistic Romans. I always thought blaming Jews for killing Christ is just advertising how little you know or understand about His death and resurrection. I've read books about the rise of Nazism in Germany, and again, the Jews were scapegoated but not by informed Christians. Between the post WWI sanctions, the hyper-inflation of the Weimar republic with its restrictions on possessing foreign currency, and the ban on charging interest (regarded as of usury), the Jews were the only people not starving to death, and they got singled out for that. Hitler just blamed the "cosmopolitan" Jews for everything and proceeded to kill and loot them. Thanks for writing this essay, just looking at the comments it's obvious there's a lot of interest, information and passion about this enduring topic. I would be remiss if I didn't mention that it will never be any other way, until His return, as the Jews are God's chosen people and Satan hates them for that.
11 Meanwhile Jesus stood before the governor, and the governor asked him, “Are you the king of the Jews?”
“You have said so,” Jesus replied.
12 When he was accused by the chief priests and the elders, he gave no answer. 13 Then Pilate asked him, “Don’t you hear the testimony they are bringing against you?” 14 But Jesus made no reply, not even to a single charge—to the great amazement of the governor.
15 Now it was the governor’s custom at the festival to release a prisoner chosen by the crowd. 16 At that time they had a well-known prisoner whose name was Jesus[b] Barabbas. 17 So when the crowd had gathered, Pilate asked them, “Which one do you want me to release to you: Jesus Barabbas, or Jesus who is called the Messiah?” 18 For he knew it was out of self-interest that they had handed Jesus over to him.
19 While Pilate was sitting on the judge’s seat, his wife sent him this message: “Don’t have anything to do with that innocent man, for I have suffered a great deal today in a dream because of him.”
**20 But the chief priests and the elders persuaded the crowd to ask for Barabbas and to have Jesus executed.
21 “Which of the two do you want me to release to you?” asked the governor.
“Barabbas,” they answered.
22 “What shall I do, then, with Jesus who is called the Messiah?” Pilate asked.
They all answered, “Crucify him!”
23 “Why? What crime has he committed?” asked Pilate.
But they shouted all the louder, “Crucify him!”
24 When Pilate saw that he was getting nowhere, but that instead an uproar was starting, he took water and washed his hands in front of the crowd. “I am innocent of this man’s blood,” he said. “It is your responsibility!”
25 All the people answered, “His blood is on us and on our children!”**
26 Then he released Barabbas to them. But he had Jesus flogged, and handed him over to be crucified.
Ok irrational antisemite. Pilate was also responsible as he was weak and didn't care about doing what's right. He thought it was ok to flog JESUS who was innocent just to appease the crowd. And the Pharisees were responsible for riling up the innocent jews. So both jews and gentiles are responsible for JESUS'S death.
Many people need someone or group to scapegoat, hate and discriminate against. The only people I scapegoat, hate and discriminate against are career politicians, but they deserve it.😉
In the Middle Ages, many countries in Europe had laws forbidding Jews from owning property. So if you can't be a farmer or own a factory, what can you do to survive? Basically that left banking and running some kind of shop (out of rented space). When the Jews did well at this, the society resented their success. The law was supposed to keep them down, but instead it had simply pressured them into avenues where they met even greater success than they likely would have as farmers. Kind of ironic.
if jews couldn't own property, and in the middle ages only the upper classes owned property, why on God's green earth would they allow jews to do banking for them?
ie "you can't own property, but i'll trust you with my finances"
People have done many illogical things throughout history. It's easy enough to find sources to confirm what I said. For example, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_European_Jews_in_the_Middle_Ages, "In the high middle ages, many European Jews were specialized as merchants, money-lenders or artisans, as they were largely excluded from crafts guilds and barred from owning land."
This article, https://www.aitzhayim.org/jewish-life-in-medieval-europe/, presents the theory that Christians barred Jews from owning lands because they believed that Jews must be punished for killing Christ, but not exterminated because a time would come when they would repent and could be allowed to return to Israel. I don't know if that's true, it's always risky ascribing a single simple motive to the actions of millions of people.
In practical terms, the Bible forbids charging interest on loans. But banking proved very useful, so many Christians decided it was wrong for a Christian to loan money at interest to another Christian but it was okay for a Jew to loan to a Christian or vice versa. Partly they interpreted the rules to mean "don't charge interest to a fellow believer". And maybe partly they figured that the Jews were apostates anyway, so what difference did it make? Like I've often joked that in many states gambling is illegal, except for the state lottery, because they don't want ordinary people to be corrupted by enticing others to gamble away their hard-earned money, but the government is already so corrupt that the additional evil of gambling just doesn't matter.
My apologies i apparently screwed the pooch on my first comment. Yes i agree, they used Jews as a work around to avoid committing usury. Is it outside of the realm of possibility that over time a small number would become wealthier than their gentile customers after collecting interest?
Everything with Kanye right now has been bothering me because he just says Jews, but it isn't that simple. If you can see my other comments on here, there's different sects just like every group, it has nothing to do with ethnicity, nor Judaism as a whole, just the Talmudic ones who perceive non-Jews as subhuman. And I wager alot of these specifically are in echelons of power in banking, media, government, etc. Percentagewise they're grossly overrepresented. And people like Jordan Peterson explain it away as being some IQ related nonsense, when really its more likely a form of nepotism. You can't really get anything done without money in the western world, and if you control money, everything else is mostly irrelevant.
In the end my point is that its not millions of people its maybe 10s of thousands, and its not "the Jews" which is much too broad a term to say
Don't lie you believe all jews are evil. Then why did you claim that all jews were responsible for JESUS CHRIST'S death and denied the Romans responsibility for it. Your trying to hide your jew hatred. What if jews use nepotism , every group when they gain power use it for their groups benefit. Why do you have a problem when only jews do it. Some jews got into power by their skills and established themselves and they might use it for their benefit. But i don't think it's likely because although they are overepresented for their size they still are not the majority of politicians. Just accept your prejudice against them
You don't even understand what the Talmud is. The Talmud has a wide range of opinions by thousands of rabbis , sages and you cherripick few opinions about gentiles which were mostly rejected. And most of the quotes online are fake
i don't think we have to go back to Christ John. I have lived in the jewish community for my entire life married one have a jewish daughter and my siblings are also married into tribe. I think there is a vast difference between observation of cultural characteristics however favorable or unfavorable and being a bigot. They may not be out firing bullets but they certainly bear the lion's share of responsibility for the greatest geopolitical catastrophe of many centuries Bolshevism. As stalin allegedly said to ben gurion's envoy during the UN plebiscite on being threatened to tell truman about soviet spies in US administration "all jews are bolsheviks". The entire Cheka was comprised of jews or a few who were married to one. Hitler won in '32 over a communist experimental gov. in bavaria accurately identified with the jewish population in region. No jewish support no communism and I do not know why no one is willing to ask them for some accounting. I believe the number is 250-400 million dead claimed in the black book of communism, Now we also had all our military nuclear tech given to the soviets by almost exclusively jewish scientists working on the manhattan project with the exception of Edward Teller. A jewish historian couple at harvard on the hudson wrote a book a few years back claiming Einstein was also complicit. It disappeared. Recently the arrest of a Jewish scientist at harvard or yale for espionage giving sensitive materials to the chinese. The Ukrainians are anti semitic largely due to their experiences with almost exclusively jewish bureaucratic operatives during the holodmor. They sided with Hitler over this and have asked Israel for an accounting to which they are rightly due. Additionally the outsized involvement in the corruption of Christian values in america which they openly brag about in their various publications the casino conditions in the financial markets and the improper use of their wealth to affect the body politic are the real reasons behind most people's wariness of them. Of course no one wants to talk about any of this. I also thoroughly resent the orchestrated censorship they exert in many venues one black employee, I believe it FTX, losing his job for saying he noticed there were no other employees who were not jewish. The still continuing suppression by the mostly jewish international consortium of publishing of Solzhenitsyn's "200 years together" is another highly questionable but rarely spoken of act. They have an almost stranglehold on academia, finance, entertainment, sports, science, medicine and publishing and none of this outsized influence is for the better in my view. I live in NYC and have been listening to jews say that people just resent their success. It is not but try getting them to speak honestly about the reasons behind the resentments.
They brag about this in their publications but act like any observation of these realities is a bullet train to auschwitz. What has been done to kanye west is an outrage and chappelle surely put his finger right on it by saying one must never noticed patterns.
i am not "cherrypicking" anything Nick. No jewish involvement NO bolshevism. 4% of russian population 80% +/- of party membership. All leadership were either jews or had jewish spouses. Lenin acknowledged this Also same for the NKVD and the entire face of the the "starvation genocide" aka "the holodomor" in Ukraine were jewish apparatchiks led by one Kaganovich rumored to an ancestor of our current Neo Con ahole robert kagan married to the odious fellow jew Victoria Nuland two of the most pernicious operatives alive today. A hugely disproportionate number of the war mongering Neo Con movement are jews seeking to further wound and destroy a russia which is now fully entitled to membership in coalition of free nations. Their policies and actions are based on the desires of the jewish oligarchy that Putin has successfully constrained from controlling the body politic in Russia and its satellites. The influence they wield is likely going to wreak havoc as the russians not only do not deserve what is going on but will not yield . Also are the issues of the flat out immoral criminality in our modern financial markets termed "vulture" capitalism which is also substantially a jewish phenomenon. I recall the book "liar's poker" published in 90s about these practices at solomon bros. I was upset enough to talk to my jewish husband about his considering emigrating to Israel as i was expecting a furious backlash which never came. instead it has become inexorably worse with the formation of funds such as blackrock, vanguard and others almost all run by jews. There is a very interesting book available on certain sites by a historian about jewish financial crimes in the medieval times. Guess certain things never change. The black book of communism complied by a group of french scholars places the number dead between 250K and 450k. It is well past time for the jewish community to own up to their primary role in this travesty which was infinitely more destructive than Naziism. Death count in the Holodomor exceeded the one in concentration camps. there are many very righteous influential people working and writing today who oddly as correct as they are on many issues cannot bring themselves to name this. Martin Armstrong the world renowned economist and all around wonderful man is very strong on almost all issues of our time but never touches upon the issue. I also think David horowitz an incredible person could be allot stronger on this.
"Prohibited from nearly every other trade, some Jews began to occupy an economic niche as moneylenders in the Middle Ages. Only they were allowed to take interest on loans, since—while the Church condemned usury universally—canon law was only applied to Christians and not to Jews. Eventually, a sizable sector of the Jewish community were engaged in financial occupations, and the community was a financially highly successful part of the medieval economy.[3][4] The religious restrictions on moneylending had inadvertently created a source of monopoly rents, causing profits associated with moneylending to be higher than they otherwise would have been.[5] By most parameters, the standard of living of the Jewish community in Early Medieval period was at least equal to that of the lower nobility.[6] However, despite this economic prosperity, the community was not safe: religious hostility increased to the extent that it manifested itself in the form of massacres and expulsions, culminating in the repetitive expulsion of all Jews from various parts of Western Europe in the late medieval period."
Not allowed to do anything else according to wikipedia, so naturally when people won't hire you as a carpenter or a metalworker, or any other type of laborer, they'll just trust you with their currency?
so felix was or was not I do not know about his wife. . the point being mr. katz that when one examines the minuscule percentage of jews in russian population at the time the corresponding number in the politburo and agencies EXTREMELY HIGH. Stalin said as much to ben gurion's envoy and it is equally true in america where being a communist was and is illegal. I know david horowitz he certainly does not deny this having grown up in sunnyside with a cell of commies in queens. Jews in the region were insurrectionists and revolutionaries generally going into the cities agitating and then fleeing into the shetles to avoid arrest. I stand by my comments and still think it is past time for the jewish community to own up to this as they continue to support radical progressive policies here derived from the musing of the communist antonio gramsci. I had a friend in the 70s who was a rothschild she was very involved in radical politics in the weimar and befriended the members of the frankfort group in NYC they were all radical leftists and communists. There are historical issues regarding the history of the jews and indigenous populations in europe and it is not all one sided the resentments are grounded in experience which should be aired and dealt with not from the a priori conclusion that any type of resentment toward jews is grounded in some neurotic personality. I thought adorno was an ass when I was young now i still wonder at how when so many desperate jews were denied entry here these clowns were not. We can start with the international press consortium preventing the translation of 200 years together and go from there. kanye west inartfully and undiplomatically alluded to some issues which should not have resulted in a high tech lynching. every critical comment is not equivalent to a bullet train to auschwitz. As for the Ukraine the rise of the bandera fascists was a direct consequence of the holodomor which in their view had a jewish face.
Its not that Jews are successful. Its that too many with Jewish names are doing things to destroy traditional morals: abortion, lgbt, gender confusion with kids, porn, you name it.
The creation of the Jewish state, Israel, at the end of WW II pushed the Palestinians off their land. Many wound up as refugees in the Gaza Strip as I recall. That Palestinians are hostile to Israel to this day is not surprising. Israel was created as a Jewish homeland with the muscle of Great Britain, US, and allies. It is a benefit to the US to have a close ally in the middle east, but knowing what we do today, was is really a good idea?
The existence of Arabs in Palestine was a result of Islamic wars of conquest. Hundreds of thousands of Jews were expelled or fled in terror from Arab countries to Israel. Everybody can play this game, and then I guess the only legitimate inhabitants of what is today Israel are whatever people lived there before the Canaanites conquered them. That doesn't seem like a very worthwhile exercise, does it?
While complicated, the existence of Jews in the land of Israel extends back somewhat more than 3000 years. If not Israel, where is the proper place of residence for Jews? Iraq? Poland, Germany? Ukraine? I ask because Jews lived in those places for centuries and yet that didn't turn out so well. Out of curiosity, how long have your people been living on the land on which you currently reside? Do you think that is a just situation? Should the prior inhabitants be entitled to expel you?
I'm not sure I follow your argument. The Jewish people, as well as Arabs, have lived in today's Israel for possibly thousands of years. My observation was that in declaring the State of Israel hundreds of thousands of Palestinians (Arabs) were pushed out. The Palestinians are still unhappy about it and may never get over it. This relatively recent historical fact as a reason for antagonism was not alluded to in John's essay.
Your a lying antisemite. The Arabs stole Jewish land when the Jews were exiled. But even during the exile some jews were still in israel. Read about the Jewish massacres by the Arabs before the modern state of israel. Stop pushing your lies antisemite
"Should the prior inhabitants be entitled to expel you?"
If they can do it on their own, without using the Zionist movement from wealthier countries who have the militaristic means to implant them into a region they haven't controlled for centuries. I'm shocked by the lack of historical knowledge here. It makes no sense why would the collective west find a reason to "create" the state of Israel and commit to 6 decades of unrest thousands of miles away?
Jew hating fool your the one who lacks any historical knowledge. The commitee for accuracy in middle eastern affairs debunks your antisemitic sophistry.
John, you might as well be a Jew, you fawn over them so much. The fact of the matter is, Jewish power is predominant through most, if not all, sectors of American society: Hollywood, finance and government (given how much it placates Israel), etc. Jews are the only group that has so much power, you can’t even affirm this without being censored. Their key to success is to create and perpetuate the ultimate victim narrative, thanks to the efforts by the Nazis to exterminate them at the end of World War 2. Then, they can pretend they really don’t have any power.
If the Jews really ran America and in particular its policy towards Israel, then the American embassy would now be in Tel Aviv (not Jerusalem) and the JCPOA with Iran would still be in effect, with Iran probably already having nuclear weapons.
The idea that "the Jews" are monolithic and have a unified agenda promoted by "Jewish power" is preposterous, as anybody with the slightest connection with real Jews would know.
I was simply pointing out that among all racial demographics exists a small portion who sees themselves as the pinnacle human race, it’s just only socially acceptable to talk about whites
It needs to be remembered that there is a difference between Jews and Israelis. Not supporting the modern Secular State of Israel is not antisemitic. As Gary DeMar pointed out, they may have a political right to exist, but they don't have a prophetic right to exist, any more than the USA does. When they do shady crap, they need to be called out for it.
As for Ethnic and Religious Jews in the United States, the only thing I dislike is their statistical penchant for supporting leftism, and policies that go ultimately against their own well being and freedom. I have met far more liberal Jews than conservative ones, much the same as Black folks in my area. When I try to convince anyone to get out from the Big Brother-Global Marxist camp, I am invariably called an anti semite or racist.
My experience with anti-semitism is almost exactly like yours, John. As an evangelical Christian, I know that Jesus was crucified as part of God's plan to bring salvation to us sinners, it was the ultimate sacrifice of the perfect lamb.

What she said. And as a Jew I've noticed and been pissed off over this behavior my entire life.
"The Ukrainians are anti semitic largely due to their experiences with almost exclusively jewish bureaucratic operatives during the holodmor."
Actually the Ukrainians were having widespread pogroms against the Jews centuries before the Holomodor.
"The entire Cheka was comprised of jews or a few who were married to one."
Felix Dzerzhinsky, the head of the Cheka, was not Jewish.
A Ukrainian-American activist friend told me its because the Russians and Poles used Jews as tax collectors historically.
actually most Christian nations in the middle ages used Jews as money handlers
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Court_Jew

Eventually, a sizable sector of the Jewish community were engaged in financial occupations, and the community was a financially highly successful part of the medieval economy.[3][4] The religious restrictions on moneylending had inadvertently created a source of monopoly rents, causing profits associated with moneylending to be higher than they otherwise would have been.[5] By most parameters, the standard of living of the Jewish community in Early Medieval period was at least equal to that of the lower nobility.[6] However, despite this economic prosperity, the community was not safe: religious hostility increased to the extent that it manifested itself in the form of massacres and expulsions, culminating in the repetitive expulsion of all Jews from various parts of Western Europe in the late medieval period."
Not allowed to do anything else according to wikipedia, so naturally when people won't hire you as a carpenter or a metalworker, or any other type of laborer, they'll just trust you with their currency?
makes to total sense right

as i was saying mr. katz the wife of dzerzhinsky jewish as you can observe from her appearance and narrative in wiki article.
so felix was or was not I do not know about his wife. . the point being mr. katz that when one examines the minuscule percentage of jews in russian population at the time the corresponding number in the politburo and agencies EXTREMELY HIGH. Stalin said as much to ben gurion's envoy and it is equally true in america where being a communist was and is illegal. I know david horowitz he certainly does not deny this having grown up in sunnyside with a cell of commies in queens. Jews in the region were insurrectionists and revolutionaries generally going into the cities agitating and then fleeing into the shetles to avoid arrest. I stand by my comments and still think it is past time for the jewish community to own up to this as they continue to support radical progressive policies here derived from the musing of the communist antonio gramsci. I had a friend in the 70s who was a rothschild she was very involved in radical politics in the weimar and befriended the members of the frankfort group in NYC they were all radical leftists and communists. There are historical issues regarding the history of the jews and indigenous populations in europe and it is not all one sided the resentments are grounded in experience which should be aired and dealt with not from the a priori conclusion that any type of resentment toward jews is grounded in some neurotic personality. I thought adorno was an ass when I was young now i still wonder at how when so many desperate jews were denied entry here these clowns were not. We can start with the international press consortium preventing the translation of 200 years together and go from there. kanye west inartfully and undiplomatically alluded to some issues which should not have resulted in a high tech lynching. every critical comment is not equivalent to a bullet train to auschwitz. As for the Ukraine the rise of the bandera fascists was a direct consequence of the holodomor which in their view had a jewish face.
Its not that Jews are successful. Its that too many with Jewish names are doing things to destroy traditional morals: abortion, lgbt, gender confusion with kids, porn, you name it.
The creation of the Jewish state, Israel, at the end of WW II pushed the Palestinians off their land. Many wound up as refugees in the Gaza Strip as I recall. That Palestinians are hostile to Israel to this day is not surprising. Israel was created as a Jewish homeland with the muscle of Great Britain, US, and allies. It is a benefit to the US to have a close ally in the middle east, but knowing what we do today, was is really a good idea?
The existence of Arabs in Palestine was a result of Islamic wars of conquest. Hundreds of thousands of Jews were expelled or fled in terror from Arab countries to Israel. Everybody can play this game, and then I guess the only legitimate inhabitants of what is today Israel are whatever people lived there before the Canaanites conquered them. That doesn't seem like a very worthwhile exercise, does it?
While complicated, the existence of Jews in the land of Israel extends back somewhat more than 3000 years. If not Israel, where is the proper place of residence for Jews? Iraq? Poland, Germany? Ukraine? I ask because Jews lived in those places for centuries and yet that didn't turn out so well. Out of curiosity, how long have your people been living on the land on which you currently reside? Do you think that is a just situation? Should the prior inhabitants be entitled to expel you?
I'm not sure I follow your argument. The Jewish people, as well as Arabs, have lived in today's Israel for possibly thousands of years. My observation was that in declaring the State of Israel hundreds of thousands of Palestinians (Arabs) were pushed out. The Palestinians are still unhappy about it and may never get over it. This relatively recent historical fact as a reason for antagonism was not alluded to in John's essay.
Your a lying antisemite. The Arabs stole Jewish land when the Jews were exiled. But even during the exile some jews were still in israel. Read about the Jewish massacres by the Arabs before the modern state of israel. Stop pushing your lies antisemite
"Should the prior inhabitants be entitled to expel you?"
If they can do it on their own, without using the Zionist movement from wealthier countries who have the militaristic means to implant them into a region they haven't controlled for centuries. I'm shocked by the lack of historical knowledge here. It makes no sense why would the collective west find a reason to "create" the state of Israel and commit to 6 decades of unrest thousands of miles away?
it doesn't reconcile
You antisemitic lowlifes crawl out to lie and increase Jew hatred. You have a superficial antisemitic understanding of history .
Jew hating fool your the one who lacks any historical knowledge. The commitee for accuracy in middle eastern affairs debunks your antisemitic sophistry.
None of this means anything, explain why the west had any incentive to establish the Israeli state
All you’ve done is call everyone names on a thread that’s 9 months old and say “rabble rabble you don’t know history you dork”
John, you might as well be a Jew, you fawn over them so much. The fact of the matter is, Jewish power is predominant through most, if not all, sectors of American society: Hollywood, finance and government (given how much it placates Israel), etc. Jews are the only group that has so much power, you can’t even affirm this without being censored. Their key to success is to create and perpetuate the ultimate victim narrative, thanks to the efforts by the Nazis to exterminate them at the end of World War 2. Then, they can pretend they really don’t have any power.
If the Jews really ran America and in particular its policy towards Israel, then the American embassy would now be in Tel Aviv (not Jerusalem) and the JCPOA with Iran would still be in effect, with Iran probably already having nuclear weapons.
The idea that "the Jews" are monolithic and have a unified agenda promoted by "Jewish power" is preposterous, as anybody with the slightest connection with real Jews would know.
i hate basically this whole thread, its not "jews" which is an ambiguous term
read the talmud if you can
white supremacists exist in white society
black supremacists exist in black society
jewish supremacists exist in jewish society
its not complicated, one of these is overrepresented in positions of power by over 1000% when compared to overall population
Why do you have a problem specifically with Jewish supremacists. This proves your antisemitic.
I was simply pointing out that among all racial demographics exists a small portion who sees themselves as the pinnacle human race, it’s just only socially acceptable to talk about whites
The Talmud takes years to study and you moron thinks pulling up fake quotes is actual research
Insult me if you wish but I mentioned zero quotes from the Talmud
You said to read the Talmud to find out quotes against gentiles. What you meant is fake quotes online
So you’re saying there absolutely nothing against gentiles in the entire Talmud ok
Whether it’s Tel Aviv or Jerusalem, Republicans or Democrats, Iran deal or no Iran deal, America is still run by Jews.
Prove it jew hater
It needs to be remembered that there is a difference between Jews and Israelis. Not supporting the modern Secular State of Israel is not antisemitic. As Gary DeMar pointed out, they may have a political right to exist, but they don't have a prophetic right to exist, any more than the USA does. When they do shady crap, they need to be called out for it.
As for Ethnic and Religious Jews in the United States, the only thing I dislike is their statistical penchant for supporting leftism, and policies that go ultimately against their own well being and freedom. I have met far more liberal Jews than conservative ones, much the same as Black folks in my area. When I try to convince anyone to get out from the Big Brother-Global Marxist camp, I am invariably called an anti semite or racist.
