Anti-Semitism?
Why is it that any criticism
of any aspect of the state of
Israel is immediately equated
with charges of anti-Semitism?

The root word Semite is actually defined as follows: 1. A member of a group of Semitic-speaking peoples of the Near East and northern Africa, including the Arabs, Arameans, Babylonians, Carthaginians, Ethiopians, Hebrews, and Phoenicians. 2. A Jew. 3. Bible A descendant of Shem. So technically, anyone who speaks against the Arabs should be considered Anti-Semetic. I realise people argue that the word Anti-Semetic is reserved specifically for Jews - like priority parking. Ridiculous. Perhaps people just need to be reminded of the definitions of such words and then they will not use them to slander those who speak freely. |

Not much... Atleast not in California... However, maybe in other states there is still Anti-Semitism... I also heard of an attack on a few Arabs, just because they were dressed as Arabs.... That is Anti-Semitism too, right??? |

Public anti-Semitism is the behavior that you saw in Germany during the 1930's. It consisted of public acts like writing "Achtung Jeuden" on walls, films demonstrating the "unsuitability" of Jews for trust, published material denigrating Jews and the placing of Jews into concentration camps. Outside of Germany, the French demonstrated their government's anti-Semitism earlier in the Dreyfus trial. And, of course, Israel's Arab neighbors fought a war to eliminate it as a nation almost immediately after the UN declared it a nation. Private anti-Semitism was and is found over most of the western world. It isn't published, but can be jokes that show Jews as money grubbers or dirty. It is an attitude that can be summed up by those statements that "everybody knows..." In Nazi Germany, Hitler was sure that his adopted country (he was born Austrian) would have won WWI if it had not been betrayed by the Jewish bankers. He began a campaign to stir up public opinion against the Jews early in his political career. But Germany and Austria were not alone in their actions. Almost every country in eastern Europe joined enthusiastically in the campaign to remove Jews from among them. According to one source, Hitler did not think of extermination until a concerned German wrote him asking if it would not be better to euthanize a brother who was retarded. Jews, Gypsies, and many eastern Europeans were lumped in with the mentally ill and retarded in the "final solution." |
