    Can somebody explain to me the obsession with the Jews? Has it got worse around here because everything seems to be Jews, does anybody really believe this crap that they are controling the world. Why are we not all worried about the wasps, surely they are who if anyone controls the world. How are we meant to believe that they have such control? They are a tiny minority, what is the obsession is this a throw back to 70 years ago? Where is this crap coming from.

    I know its a well known CT but it seems to be creeping into lots of other ones. There are much more powerful people we should be worried about in my opinion, I just dont really get it at all.

    I don't believe that anyone here is seriously coming from a white supremacist point of view and if you're going make accusations of such things you really need to be dealing in hard evidence as opposed to your own opinion.

    "The Jews" are a popular target for CT's because of the open conspiracies the Isreali state is engaged in with regard to their ties to the U.S.A and their conduct within the U.N and the way they treat their neighbours.

    I don't believe for a second that every jewish person in the world is out to enslave us all, it just happens that certain prominent people who are seen as being part of the NWO brigade are Jewish. Even more of those people are not Jewish also, but the wires get crossed on the difference between a Jewish person and the Isreali state etc.

    I'd suggest to the OP that if you have concerns about xenophobia on the forum you would be best advised to report them to the site staff and allow them to deal with it.

    I am not really concerned by it, it doesnt really bother me, more boring than anything. I am more curious as to where it comes from because it seems very illogical to me.

    That begs the question of why you started a thread about it.
    You could have PM'd the users whose opinions you're curious about.

    Next time you're finding yourself bored by a topic, stop and think; "Do I really want to start a thread about this?"

    Talk about illogical.

    Your confusing Judaism (religion)with Zionism (Facist ideology). There are many more Christian Zionists in America that there are Jewish Zionists in the whole world. So quite clearly it is not an issue of religion.

    The root of the 'Jewish conspiracy' is three-fold: historical, Israel-related, and related to the proportion of Jewish-ethnic people involved at high levels of certain governments and corporations.

    The historical element goes back beyond the infamous Protocols of the Elders of Zion (a noted forgery) to generic suspicion of Jews from the early Middle Ages onwards, when they kept themselves apart as a people and conducted certain business practices, including financial ones, that Christians didn't. Thus, when people had a problem with coming off worst in such business dealings, it was all too easy to blame the Jews in general.

    The Israel-related element is the one with the most credibility. There is no doubt that Israel as a state is involved in ethnically cleansing Palestinians from their land, and have acted to achieve this by way of spying and even assassination in third party countries.
    Because Israel is a self-identified 'Jewish' state, it is all too easy for some people to start suspecting all Jews of being sympathetic to Israel (and a majority probably are) and then going from that point to concluding that all Jews are potential Israeli agents.
    While obviously Mr Solomon down the road is unlikely to be an active member of Mossad, it is sadly true that Jewish communities all over the world will generally rally to Israel's cause, however, providing financial and public relations assistance when necessary.

    The final element is the one probably most relevant on this board. It is an easily established fact that many very wealthy people are of Jewish origin, as are many people involved at a high level in political and business circles, especially in places like America, Britain, Russia and France.
    In comparison to the small number of Jews outside of Israel, the number of Jews in such positions often can seem highly disproportionate.
    The explanation may be that Jews are simply naturally brighter than other people (this has been tentatively suggested by some studies into IQ), or it may be that they are simply more attuned to careers in the areas of politics and high finance by virtue of their upbringing (which often focuses on self-confidence and academic achievement) and history (which has led Jewish families to have long-standing traditions of working in financial and investment sectors.)

    When I hear of ZOG and so on, I find it risible. But when I hear of Jewish students hijacking global discussion forums to defend Israeli interests (such as the 'loudhailer' software many Jewish students used during the last war with Hizbollah), I find that entirely plausible.

    On reflection after my first post and having seen you say the topic bores you I felt that perhaps you could have posed your questions via PM that's all. Perhaps I was being a bit simplistic in my assessment of what you were saying.

    We'll forget about that anyway.

    Cavehill Red has it on the money there. Over the century's Jews have been targeted by states as scapegoats. They became money lenders as the catholic church didn't allow Catholics to do it. Can't remember what English king got a huge loan from the Jews then expelled them all so he wouldn't have to repay it. They have been badly mistreated.

    Anyway most of the stuff that comes up about Jews tends to fall into 3 categories... has no evidence, obviously rubbish or provably false. It's a favourite of many people out there to seek out any Jew that was even in the vicinity of a CT, maybe walking their dog and try to blame them in some way.

    Now don't get me wrong Israel has done some terrible things but I don't buy for a second that all Jews are somehow of one mind and will blindly agree with each other.

    i assumed you would be aware that this document was made up?
    Plagiarism Sources and Origin of the Plot

    Implicated in the creation of the forgery was Pyotr Ivanovich Rachkovsky, head of the Paris office of the Russian Secret Police during the same time period.[13][14]

    The source material for the forgery was the synthesis of an 1864 book of fiction by French political satirist Maurice Joly, titled Dialogue aux enfers entre Machiavel et Montesquieu or Dialogue in Hell Between Machiavelli and Montesquieu and a chapter from a 1868 book of fiction entitled "Biarritz" by antisemitic German novelist Hermann Goedsche, which had been translated into Russian in 1872.[15]

    Joly's book was written as a veiled attack on the political ambitions of Napoleon III. In the book, Napoleon III was represented by Machiavelli[16] and was depicted as secretly plotting to rule the world. Joly, a monarchist and legitimist, had been imprisoned as a direct result of his book's publication.

    I am not getting into this semantic argument again.

    The origin of a phrase or idiom does not translate to its day to day usage. In modern spoken English, Anti-semitic means prejudice against Jewish people.
    hostility toward or discrimination against Jews as a religious, ethnic, or racial group


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,584 ✭✭✭digme


    If you used that word in Israel you'd be laughed at.

    If I criticise an Israeli, am I an anti semite?

    A controversial national loyalty oath took a step closer to becoming law on Wednesday as Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu lost a battle to soften the wording of a new citizen's declaration.
    Ministers approved a draft of the proposed oath, which would require anyone taking Israeli citizenship to swear allegiance to Israel as a "Jewish and democratic state".

    Kinda racist isn't it?

    A quote from Daniel O Connell praises the fact the Irish never persecuted the Jews throughout history.

    It was only to last another 100 years. From the Limerick pogrom to the rise of fascism and clowns like Oliver J Flanagan, it is still popular today, masked as sympathy for the Palestinians.



    Some is whipped up by religion: they crucified Jesus.
    Some whipped up by politics: they own the banks, we owe the banks, balme those who own the banks for the money we owe and cant pay back.
    Some is bigotry: they are "different".

    More liably the latter, justified by the first, to excuse the second.

    Anyone who hates Jews is an idiot. A good rule of thumb for life. Look at the low lifes on the www.pravda.ru forums to see what I mean.

    Until 9/11 I dont think too many Irish hated arabs. Maybe the imperialists, or racists among the defense forces that served in the UN - not calling all our boys that were out there such, but there is a lot who are.



    As for the Irish Holocaust website: I submit a lot to its facebook page, giving the angle that not all the Irish were sympathethic to their own, it was as much a class thing as a racial thing.

    And indeed, many Irish turned down alternative crops when told the potatoes would fail, as happened in Longford.



    As for lets hate Britain... we are champions at that on this wee isle of ours!

    Which isle would that be?

    Don't hold the Irish people in very high regard do you? "champions" of hate against the British, a "lot" of racists in the defense forces and anti-semitism every where you turn, swastikas on every street corner, which lets face it is complete bollox. Not once in my entire life in Ireland have I witnessed a single episode of anti-semitism. The closest I ever got was when there was a small guy a year below me in school who used to get called "Jewy" by some of the other lads, I thought for a while it was because he was Jewish; but no, turns out "jewy" was short for Julian. That's the closest I've ever been to personally witnessing anti-semitism in Ireland.

    The Swastika Laundry was not a racist foundation, they just used the swastika when it was just another distinctive mark.

    As it happens, in Jainism in India, and some strains of Buddism and one Native American reservation in Mexico use it on their flags, though those in USA dont as a mark of respect to the holocaust victims.

    What stuns me is how unaware people are of the anti-semitism in the world and its origions.

    Indeed it was quote fashionable before WWII, and James Connolly himself was said to be anti-semetic, though not strongly so.

    The crux of it seems to come from two sources, church and economy - church in that the Christian Churches blamed the Jews for the crucifixion of Christ, barely conceled in Mel Gibsons Passion film, a stance only relaxed in the last hundred years.

    The economic comes from the Jewish ban on intrest on money loaned to other Jews, but they can charge to non-Jews, and that is where the stereotype of the Jewish moneylender came from.

    They are astute as a people, which people begrudge more than admire. A combination of these and other factors - including allegations that there exists in Talmudic scripts contemporary with the time of Christ calling the BVM a slapper and suchforth - led to the antisemitism that is rife today.

    ZIONISM ISSUE

    The Zionism issue is a complex offshoot, which puts a respectible face on anti-semitism, and gives a smokescreen to Israel against its critics.

    Zionism is the belief that the Jews must return to the Promised Land, the Holy Land promised to them when Moses led them from Egypt. The Jews originally came from Egypt / Sudan region, which is why there are so many African Nergoid Jewish people in Ethiopia in particular.

    The way the US and its allies dispossessed the Arab residents of Palestine to make room for the European Jews in creating Israel in the Nakba - which Israel denies happened, while denying others the right to deny the Holocaust, fact is BOTH happened, were shameful, should not have happened and should never be let happen again - led directly to the current Middle East crises.

    The recent issue of the aid ships highlighted the fact that Israel should not be denying access to the land and the sea to the people who have lived there in the last 2000 years, as if its correct to do so than America should be returned to the Red Indians and all whites to Europe and Blacks to Africa, and the borders of Europe would be brutally redrawn (Ireland and Scotland would be one with Wales, the English would be returned to Germany and we would rule Belgrade, and be fighting the Albanians - actually sounds a GREAT idea!!! rotfl - just joking!!!) - and Israel reacted in typical draconian fashion.

    They have to remember that they don't have the right to oppress others just because they once were victims, but thats no excuse for the anti-semitism either.

    No man is more than any man. No man should be condemned for being Jewish, but to criticize Israel is not to be anti-semetic.

    A quote from Daniel O Connell praises the fact the Irish never persecuted the Jews throughout history.

    It was only to last another 100 years. From the Limerick pogrom to the rise of fascism and clowns like Oliver J Flanagan, it is still popular today, masked as sympathy for the Palestinians.

    And your evidence for that claim? :rolleyes:

    Leave the Jews alone, live and let live.

    If Israeli extremists are persecuting Palestinians, it’s not because they are Jewish, if Palestinian extremists are attacking Israelis, it’s not because they are Muslims, both sides would just find another excuse. Face facts, the extremist on each side are just as bad as each other.

    As usual, Irish folk tend to mix the Jewish and Israeli person.
    Ignorance? Willful ignorance? Hard to tell. Life goes on though as some of the usual suspects on these forums show their true colours.

    Ahyou make it sound like they were teh only group ever booted from a country, Lots of nations have targeted minority groups in during times of national turmoil in an attempt to galvanise unity amongst the indiginious population, a couple of examples that spring to mind are the Muslims from Iberia the Chinese from the South pacific, the French from the Caribean, and of coure Everyone who didnt wear Short shorts ent tolk lioke hie wus congiesteed in Suth Afrika
