Re: If not for Germany or Israel, who else will look after ethnic Germans or Jews who are oppressed because of their ethnicity? I think that the very notion of a geographic safe heaven for some oppressed minority --be it Jews or any other one-- is fundamentally flawed and somehow perverse... I'm sure there are many Jews who agree with me and who, accordingly, would never dream of moving in Israel because of its bigoted atmosphere --they'd just not feel comfortable in Israel's Huxleyan society, surrounded by Jews, entertained by Jews, lectured by Jews, catered by Jews, and, at times, pestered by Jews as well... Those Jews know the value of striving for a really multicultural society and wholeheartedly belong to the country or the city where they've grown up. The Zionists have the same mind-frame as gated-community dwellers, they long for a ghetto lifestyle. Besides, most Jews who've fled to Israel because they were "oppressed" are actually petty criminals or mafyia big-shots with a dozen passports --but then, you'll likely accuse the FBI of being anti-Semitic...
