Anti-Semitism on Rise?

Read Time:36 Second

Last month, students at a Southern California high school were caught playing a late-night on-campus game of tag called “Beat the Jew.” On the popular social networking site Facebook, a user named Alex Cookson launched an open invitation to an event called “Kill a Jew Day.” It was the fourth time that a call to murder Jews had been put on Facebook within recent days.

Racism is in many hideous forms, but hating Jews especially never made sense to me. Really. What are the reasons??

Can anyone give me a reason?

But, but, we have no racism or anti semitism or anything like that here in California. I am not joking, I heard that from a winger relative on my husband’s side last week, week before. I swear, teh stoopid it burns sometimes.

‘Jews have tra­di­tion­ally been a con­ve­nient whip­ping boy, along with blacks, lib­er­als, and Mus­lims’…..and the English….;-)

Alright…joking.

It’s very true old bean. Certain ‘groups’ always seem to be the ‘one’s to get’.

Humanity is a very strange virus….I beg your pardon…life form.

There is so much hatred spewing from the far right and fundamentalists these days that I’m not at all surprised that they might be back to picking on the Jews again. Jews have traditionally been a convenient whipping boy, along with blacks, liberals, and Muslims. Bigots will be bigots!
