Anti-Semites

By Mike Haran
Dec. 13, 2006

Going through my email I came across one from some one whom had sent me a reply regarding my question “what had the Jews done that was so bad anyway?” I received a missive posted from a web site with the flippant aside that he hoped that it would answer my question. The thing was more rhetoric than observable fact, nothing definite, no facts you can check, no statistics, just the vague charge that Jews are controlling the worlds money market and, through their machinations, depriving people of their just rewards. I confess that not only has the reply left me as much in the dark as before, but also with a feeling of foreboding, that somehow I myself am regarded as a menace. It all sounds a bit spooky.

This, when you think about, it aptly describes anti-Semites. They have a chip on their shoulder, and have to have someone to blame for what they perceive as their being unfairly deprived of just financial gain. If they just confined their overbearing self righteous attitude to those of the Jewish background it would be bad enough, but lately I have noticed that when confronted by those who don’t subscribe to their view’s, or who are passive, take umbrage, the friend of my enemy is my enemy also attitude.

That Christ was crucified by the Jew is the historic reason for anti-Semitism and was one of the chief methods of whipping up hatred in times gone past. In the piece sent to me were references to Jews and Capitalism. This type of tract is sometimes modified by the inclusion of anti Israeli rhetoric. The message has changed as an atheistic society doesn’t care who crucified Christ. It has another religion: socialism.

It has now reached the point where I become angry at these anti Semites and their pushy ways. Why should I be made to feel guilty for not going along with someone obviously un balanced who, due to the largesse of the legal system, can not be confined to a psychiatric institution. It can be argued that as they pose no threat to any one they can not be forced to take treatment.

But then why worry about it? -just another whack job in a collapsing system that will eventually regenerate itself as an aristocracy following the coming anarchy; in much the same way as do collapsing stars implode upon themselves to form galaxies.
