    I grew up during the 50s and 60s in Nashville, Tennessee in a neighborhood around Vanderbilt University. I witnessed my Jewish friends being harassed. About 20 percent of the kids in school were Jewish. I have been very distressed to see the reemergence of anti-Semitism in America and in Europe. Jews are being driven out of their homes in Europe. I am especially dismayed when I hear it expressed by friends and family. It is rampant in universities. This speech has helped me to understand how this has happened. It appears that Jews are again facing an existential crisis.

    Now in November 2023, Jews are being targeted like never before. My mother is a secular Jew so I am also Jewish, though I am secular. Right now I get snide comments. Anti-Semitism is back and flourishing in the US, Canada, Europe and Australia. I would not want to be in university right now. Most Jews are not safe in American universities right now.

    Rabbi says: ' You can either ask what did we do wrong or who did it to us.' I was hoping for some introspection on his part. Three words: Barbara Lerner Spectre -------------------------------------------------------------------- 'Barbara Lerner Spectre is an academic and philosophy lecturer, who is the founding director of Paideia, the European Institute for Jewish Studies in Sweden, a non-denominational academic institute established in 2001' in interview she said this (youtube is full of it): “I think there is a resurgence of anti-Semitism because at this point in time Europe has not yet learned how to be multicultural. And I think we are going to be part of the throes of that transformation, which must take place. Europe is not going to be the monolithic societies they once were in the last century. Jews are going to be at the centre of that. It’s a huge transformation for Europe to make. They are now going into a multicultural mode and Jews will be resented because of our leading role. But without that leading role and without that transformation, Europe will not survive.”

    Except that Ms. Spectre does not speak for all Jewry everywhere. A presumed transformation of Europe into a multicultural society (which Rabbi Sacks has said is an unworkable concept) is certainly not part of any political platform one must subscribe to in order to be Jewish. Sure, many Jews lean left on immigration, but some are centrist to right (I favor strict border control but am all for taking in refugees as long as they're basically harmless). Ideological diversity exists among Jews as much as it does any other people. Look at American blacks: You can find socialists, conservative Christians, modernist Muslims to conservative Muslims to apolitical atheists & everything in between.

Even Reform Judaism (in US) seem to be on board. There is too many 'open border', 'fellow white people', 'Christianity/Europeans suck' voices coming from Jewish community.

    There is no end to the introspection and self-criticism within the Jewish community. It's even sickening. But that is not the topic of this speech. He is referring to the type of hatred and violence for which nothing that "we did" can properly justify. Even if you accept the maximal claims against the state of Israel, include all the exaggerations and fabrications, Israel would not deserve being singled out the way she is. And surely it would not justify the slaughter of innocent children in France, who have no connection to Israeli policy, just as the claim that ancient Jews killed Jesus did not justify the murder of medieval Jews.

    The first time Palestine was used to designate the region was in 135 after the failed Jewish rebellion. The Romans joined Syria and Judea and called it Syria Palaestina in order to erase the Jewish identity of the land and prevent further insurrections. In 1920 when the British Mandate for Palestine was created, Zionists rejoiced and the Arabs rejected it because they considered the region to be southern Syria. In 1947 the UN voted in favor of partitioning Palestine, and on the basis of this Israel was established in ‘48. There was no modern sovereign state in the land before this time, so no occupation. I.e. Palestine doesn’t mean what you think it means, and there is an Israel with nothing illegal about it, and it’s doing pretty fucking well. Sorry that Jews doing well for themselves disturbs you.

    Moshe Kahn Since when did anyone other than the people living in Palestine have the authority to decide over their own sovereignty? ... and the UN resolutions you refer to have never been honoured - hence the term "illegal" in the phrase "illegal occupation" There is no such thing as "israel", there is only an illegal occupation of Palestine and of its people.

    What is the reason that the Bible begins with Genesis? Because of the verse; "The power of His works He hath declared to His people in giving them the heritage of the nations" (Ps. 111.6). For if the nations of the world should say to Israel: "You are robbers, because you have seized by force the lands of the seven nations of Canaan, then Israel could say to them, "The entire world belongs to the Holy One, Blessed Be He, He created it and gave it to whomever it was right in His eyes. Of His own will He gave it to them and of His own will He took it from them and gave it to us." (Rashi to Genesis 1:1 Rabbi Isaac)

    Western Europe has, in recent decades, embraced diversity as a fundamental basis for it’s social fabric. It is somewhat ironic that some elements of that fabric act to eliminate one of the older strands of that fabric. It would not surprise me if many Jews welcomed the move to a more diverse society believing they would be just one amongst many social strands. Little thought was given, it seems, to what is necessary to obtain a successful multicultural society. This is not for a dearth of examples where such societies have persisted for generations, Centuries. This, within a very few decades of Jews seeming to break through to full equality and acceptance in America and Western Europe. I return to this after some hours, to betray my apprehensions. The fabric of Western polities has woven in diverse yarns, and, I think, with more success than was due to the arrogant elitism of the Political ascendancy. Yet certain carding engines threaten to shred some of the fabric to loose stuff. The politics of identity is one such carding: the anomie of poverty and unemployment is another. It seems but few, dissident Right wing intellectuals understand that the fasces that bind a polity, allusion intended, are primarily custom, protocol, social courtesy, and deep underlying cultural bonds, not Law, not Constitutions, not Contracts, and not Jackboots. Germany held, under Hitler, because ultimately the National Socialists were led by National Mystics who harmonised with the popular aspiration, and did deliver under a National Socialist agenda. Yet as such regimes often do, they found the road to ruin. Think how the Germans contrived to immolate themselves. That aside, Jews seem to hold at the top of Western society, whilst retreating on the ground. Israel depends upon America. If America fails, and many reflective Americans consider that it will, then the fate of Israel becomes dangerous, doubtful. Their remaining chance is to negotiate to become some sort of Foederati of the Russians.

    No, what's going on in the west these days is not as simple as people once again saying "we're good, you're bad", that's just not what's happening, not here in Denmark anyways! If we Danes want to remain "an ethnic distinct people" (largely shared culture, language, customs, genetic origin, values, history, respect for our laws etc.) then we can't have muslims or any other foreign group for that matter moving in in large numbers, that's just a demographically fact! The new national movements in Europe are by and large not driven by a hate for other cultures, but by a love for your own ethnicity and country - much like you can have a wonderful neighboring family, but you still love your own family more and you certainly don't want the neighbors to move in with you in your house permanently!! (but of course this love for your own people will, when it's existence gets threatened sufficiently in some near future, necessarily have to turn against "the other" because when all peaceful options are exhausted then what else can you do to protect what you love??)

    Calling Palestinians indigenous is absurd and severely uneducated. 1, there have always been Jews in today's Israel. 2, today's Israel have been under many names (many occupants), but the oldest name it had were the kingdoms of Israel, or the twelve tribes of Israel. 3, saying that Jews aren't indigenous to their own home, is no different than thinking that the British are ingenious to North America. Imagine if Brits had exiled all the native Americans to other continents. Then, over centuries, the native Americans fought to return. And image they did return, and someone like you said what you're just saying, that the Brits are the indigenous people of North America. Pretty damn absurd. Pick up a history book. Wikipedia is right there even.
