Again you post to me with more "cut and paste" rather than answering questions. Nevertheless, I skimmed the latest cut and paste. I think Jews should be proud of the number of individuals who have overcome adversity, often being immigrants or second generation Americans, to become leading figures in industry, economics, law, and medicine, among other fields. Is there something inherently wrong with that? Your posts seem to indicate that just because a group works hard and exhibits talents to the end of gaining success and perhaps influence, that there is some coordinated conspiracy to get that group a benefit. If you know anything about the USA, you will know that this is the furthest thing for the truth. I have found in areas where Jews seem to be overly represented, there often times have been efforts to limit. I personally witnessed efforts at a college in which I have been active a move to limit students from a geographical area, simply because they felt that there were too many Jewish students. The long and the short of it is that Jews have worked very hard to get where they are. It is understandable that disgruntled inddividuals throughout history will claim that there is some sort of conspiracy rather than hard work and talent that leads to this result. There are many individuals who will not go to NBA games because they feel that it is not played by real Americans. I feel sorry for those individuals and for those who feel that there is any conspiracy in American to place people of a certain religion in a position of undue influence.
