Is it ever possible to disagree with a Jew without being called for Anti-Semite?? It is very sad that we must feel in fear when we disagree or question anything about Jews and Judaism.
I understand the history, but other minorities and even majority groups have been persecuted throughout history, including Christians still today in some parts of the world and in history.
Yes, it's possible. However, you're an anti-Semite whether you agree with us or not. I've come to that conclusion based on your obsessive postings about Jews and your sideways attempt to slander us.

Argue about sports, politics, whatever you want as long as the person you are arguing about isnt jewish. Such as the chicago bulls suck (no jews play for the bulls) (Joke)
But really it comes down to what you are arguing about. If its religious or israel based you most likely will be anti semitic or be accused of it not that it is right. Otherwise all fair game.
If you are critical of israel because you dont think they should be building in the disputed territories you are not a anti semite. But if you believe all jews have big noses and are stingy you are one and you would be wrong... ( i spend like its going out of style and my nose is not big at all).
I like shopping. And I never had to have a nose job either; I have a shiksa nose! People tell me all the time that I don't "look Jewish", which offends the crap out of me because it implies that all Jews look alike. We don't.
And yes, there are some who think that if you question Israel's policies, you are an anti-Semite. I find this mentality more among older Jews who may have emigrated from Europe, are descendents of people who did, or have some otherwise close relationship to Holocaust survivors. Among younger Jews I don't find that attitude nearly as much; their approach to Israel is much more nuanced. They support it fiercely, but they also realize that the government and IDF is responsible for some terrible things. (That does not excuse the behavior of militant Palestinians either.)
Yes. all the time. The first thing that is brought up by them is "you like obama because he is black"
or
"Its the fault of the voters because he is black ,that we are in the trouble we are in now"
and of course. the birthers.
Orly taitz is the biggest use of skin color to malign the president.
And let's not ignore the racism expoused on birther sites like Birthereport.com, Freeperville, World Nut Daily, The Post and Email, etc.
Not to mention the violent opposition to things that every other president since G. Washington has done that began (entirely coincidentally, or course!) on Jan. 2009. That's not a dead giveaway or anything. But the racists continue to think we don't notice, and if we say it out loud, they always have the old "George Bush isn't president anymore" gambit to try to distract us from the obvious.
Discussion over race and religion is embraced primarily by those who use reason and objectivity. I have never once encountered a response that was based on emotionalism and myth. This goes double with respect to this subject.
Is it possible to disagree with Jews without being called for Anti-Semitic?
Yes.
What is fascinating, though, is how much support for Israel comes from committed anti-Semites. The foundation of Evangelical Christian support for the Jewish State is their belief in the prophecy that Christ cannot return a second time until after the Temple is rebuilt. And this of course demands a Jewish State in complete control of the Temple Mount, able and willing to destroy the two Islamic Mosques that stand there now.
Most of those folks are simultaneously of the opinion that the Jews are "Christ killers" and that they're still all going straight to hell. They love Israel, but hate the Jews.

Your sole focus at city-data seems to be Jews. What exactly are you so interested in Jews for?
How can one "disagree with Jews"? In what way do you "disagree with Jews"?
Obviously if you don't subscribe to the Jewish faith, then you disagree with Judaism (or at least parts of it).... but that doesn't seem to be what you're talking about.....
