You're doing what far too many liberals do. A Muslim Congresswoman reveals her bias against Jews, and I complain....and liberals say I am biased against Muslims. Why don't you condemn Muslims for their bias against Jews?

Am I not allowed to point out antisemitism when it comes from a Muslim? Because that's what the liberals seem to be saying.

And P.S. This thread is about such rising antisemitism that Jews can't even wear their kippahs in public, no you say to me to stop pulling the Jewish victim card. YOu have NO CLUE as to the type and number of antisemitic events I have personally experienced, and yet....you're back to telling a Jew to stop playing the victim card.

Angela Merkel is talking about a problem in her country, and if you want to take is as some kind of conspiracy from CNN, then be my guest.

I am not liberal. If you want to rave against muslims, knock yourself out, but do you have to do it on every thread?

The people threatening Jews in Germany are not muslims, they are local German neo-nazi far-right groups.

- First, if you're not a liberal, why are you making sure to blame the right for problems?
- Second, I'm on multiple threads and rarely bring up Muslims, unless the thread involves them - in which case we have liberals defending them.
- Third, it's ironic that on a thread talking about rising antisemitism, which you of course blame on the right, you castigate a Jew (me) for playing the Jew-victim card.

PUt it all together, and I see a lefty who is blaming the right for antisemitism while, in the next breath, diminishing the very existence of antisemitism via a disdainful remark about the Jew card. And why? Because I point out the very obvious anti-Jew bias among Muslims.

I dont think you are very good at putting things together.

In this instance we are in fact taking about far-right anti-semitism in Germany, which is very unfortunate, and you barge in trying to make it about muslims (and yourself). Yes, some muslims, especially in ME are anti-Jewish, but that is not the topic here. You are trying to divert the attention away from the actual topic, which is far-right (which you are a member of) doing things you are probably not very happy about.

NO.....you are insisting it's on the right, while others have noted that it is coming from Muslims and the left. The truth of the matter is that it is in both sides.

As far as making it about myself, you were the one who said how I always blame Muslims (in your quickness to defend them), so I chose to defend against your remark making it personal. The fact of the matter is that antisemitic attitudes are quite high among the Muslims immigrants coming into Germany, France, and the UK. I will continue to call out antisemitism, even when it occurs among Muslims. They are not exempt from criticism.

It's called "checks and balances" for a reason. If the old garden gate swings too far in one direction, magically things adjust on their own. Simply human nature working here.


If there is rampant shark activity on the California coast, this tells us there is an overabundance of sea lions exist. Same principal applies. Too many Muslims in Europe? Bring on the radical right and all their bag of counter measures. It was bound to happen..

You mean besides spending a lot of time in various areas of Germany on business/pleasure and dealing with native Germans daily for the last 15+ years?

This is pure nonsense.

I agree with pilot.

German Jews have been warned by a leading government official not to wear traditional kippahs in all public settings following a rise in anti-Semitic attacks across the country.

Felix Klein, the German government's anti-Semitism commissioner, told the Funke media group Saturday: "My opinion has unfortunately changed compared with what it used to be".


https://edition.cnn.com/2019/05/26/e...ger/index.html



the majority of anti-Semitic attacks are perpetrated, according to the victims, by muslims in western Europe, by far, per a paper I linked earlier in this thread, except in Germany. Isn't that curious?? the researcher questioned germany's statistics that the right wing was to blame in germany. frankly, I doubt germany's stats, which are different from other western countries, because I think the government, merkel, is covering up the truth about the "migrants" violence and anti-Semitism by mislabeling these crimes and the perpetrators.

No doubt the right wing is anti-Semitic, but the primary perpetrators of anti-Semitism in western Europe, according to the research paper, were from muslim countries.
