  • Let's talk about European antisemitism

    It seems Europe is often considered as an antisemitic continent by many Israelis, and to a lower extent, by many Americans. There seems to be a prejudice against Europeans, that they are antisemitic. Of course, this prejudice has for consequence that European diplomacy in the Middle East is often viewed with distrust by Israelis and by Americans.

    I'd like we discuss this topic. I honestly don't know what makes Europe antisemitic, and I think discussing with you people from abroad will help me etter understand your views. Just like I hope your discussing with Euros will help better understand our views

    We just don't like anyone, nothing to do with anyone in particular.
    Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
    Then why call him God? - Epicurus

      Well, Europe takes an Anti-Zionist approach to every issue regarding Israel, and that certainly doesn't help. And neither does the growing Arabic population in Europe either.

        Could you please be more specific?

          I've never viewed Europe as a continent to be antisemitic. Some countries seem more antisemitic than others. Poland seems pretty damn antisemitic, while the UK doesn't seem antisemitic much, for instance.

          That said, I think that the Israel-Palestine conflict has been a cover for a lot of antisemitic undercurrents.

It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt.

            Europe is a very large area, is there a place more specific we are talking about. I can say being american that most people here are so stuck to the light that they are superior to others. I am assuming that folks consider you this because of hitler and his actions

              Only if you equate anti-Zionism with anti-semitism, which are two different things despite the attempts of militant Zionists to convince us otherwise.

              Like most of the world's population, Europeans tend to despise recent Israeli actions.

                Spiffor, I don't understand your question. Actually, is there a question?

                  Recent Israeli actions? You mean like defending itself?

                    If you have the gall to call it that. I guess stealing other people's land could be interpreted that way, if you were insane and ignored the fact that Israel is in the wrong.

                    Or you could take New Zealand, where Mossad recently tried to illegally obtain New Zealand passports for its agents (presumably to help in nefarious activities).

                    Was the government of Israel genuinely sorry for risking the endangernent of travelling New Zealanders?

                    My arse they were... they acted as if it was somehow their right to come to our country and take advantage of us for their own ends.

                    That's why a large portion of New Zealanders think that the Israeli government are scum. And they're right... they are arrogant scum.

                        Why is antisemitism singled out from just plain racism? And "reverse racism" isn't separate from any other sort of racism either. I don't think Scandinavia is very antisemitic. The Q word was very much an exception. I have a lot of respect for Europe. I wouldn't mind living there if I had the opportunity. You guys are much better educated (who isn't) and you tend to be more interested in things I am interested in than my fellow Americans, like linguistics. I'm not aware of a whole lot of any sort of racism in Europe. If you are antizionist, you are against the interests of Judaism. Israel's current actions aren't too great, but the land is rightfully theirs. Israel does not need to be aggressive. All will be as it should be eventually.

                            Stealing other people's land? The UN was the one who created Israel. If you are saying Israel doesn't have the right to exist, I think that borders anti-semitism.
