Pathetic.

What is pathetic?

Like the old saying from the 1950s... "Jews live like Episcopalians (richly) but vote like Puerto Ricans (like commie activists)...

Most Jews that I personally know consider themselves to be White, and that is what they put down for the race question for the 2010 census form.

I do know that the prevalent view regarding Israel and the Jewish people here in Christian Fundimentalist land is that there will be a handful of Jews that convert at the time of the 2nd coming . The rest go to Hell. To fulfill revelations Israel must be a nation. So yes Christian Fundamentalist are strong Israel supporters. As far as Jews, well they are supportive of the ones that convert and the rest....well.
This is how I see it too. The fundamentalist, evangelical Christians may not be openly hostile to Jews, but they really just see them as a means to an end. To them, the Jews that fail to embrace Jesus as the Messiah and convert to Christianity will get the same treatment as pagans, Muslims and the other "undesirables" - death and/or eternal damnation. It is true that they support Israel and by proxy the Israeli people, but do not misread this as support for the Jewish religion. Israel has to exist in order for their apocalyptic fantasy to come true. Ultimately, many Christians still believe that just like all of the other people that are not part of the "Jesus Club", Jews will get the punishment they so richly deserve when Judgement Day comes.

"Jew" is not a race. Here is a picture of Jews in India:


White? "White" is, in a way, an American innovation. If it were about race, the proper term would be "Caucasian".

So these minorities come up to you and tell you about how they hate Jews, huh?

Yea...that happens.

That's basically what i've been saying. Black people don't make a difference between white folks. If they hate white people, they couldn't care less if you're Jewish, Christian, Buddhist, or anything else. You're WHITE! They don't give a damn about the distinctions.

Amen!

And we all know that white people are reverse discriminated against left and right in the 21st century. It's official policy in most Fortune 500 Companies to have anti-white race quotas at every level of management. As a white male, sometimes I get the feeling I "need not apply" in many of today's institutions...

How do you want to celebrate you "white" heritage? What's a "white" holiday or "white" food to eat?
I suspect that the poster might have something like hoods and burning crosses in mind.

I actually can't believe that someone was willing to post digusting crap like "used as tax cows to subsidise the fertility and sloth of non-white groups" on a public forum.
