From the 13th century expulsion of Englands Jews to the 19th century Russian pogroms to the Nazi Holocaust, sour economic conditions have historically formed the backdrop of rising anti-Semitism.
Last week, we reported on a lone protestor at the Wall Street sit-in who insisted that America's economic woes could all be traced back to "the Jews."

Yet the ADL’s message has been compromised by left-wing political bias, most recently in its failure to denounce the evident antisemitism of the “Occupy Wall Street” movement.

The ADL is for once, speechless - only because they've never been in this situation before. People, time to start packing. This is 1922-1929 all over again. This is IT. What everyone said could never happen is happening before our eyes.
ReplyDeleteTwo of the most visible anti-Semites are black. This poses a real problem with the Left.

This is why you'll never hear a mention of the wolf-pack attacks/flash mobs of black people attacking people and robbing stores. The crimes remain invisible.
