Oh yeah, the whole antiSemitic thing. I'll tell you a story, which I think has an interesting moral to it. It's a true story. A friend of mine entered the parking lot of a local grocery store following the arrows. The store and parking lot were built at a time when there was a lot less traffic on the road, and the lay out isn't very good. Once you enter from what is now a very busy street, you have to follow the arrows or you're stuck. There's no way to back out or you're likely to get clobbered. Halfway down the lane, he found himself faced with a car going down the aisle in the wrong direction. He motioned for the driver to back up. The driver of the other car motioned for him to back up, which he couldn't safely do. He honked and motioned for the other driver to back up. The other driver leaned out his window and yelled, "You're just giving me a hard time because I'm black and am with a white woman.". My friend yelled back, "No, I'm giving you a hard time because you're stupid. Back up!". The moral of the story is that just because you claim you're being persecuted, it doesn't mean you're right. RE: "As far as them thinking they're "god's chosen people"...well duh.. The same thing goes for the Christians... No religion has ever prospered by saying, "We're No. 2...Amen"." That's funny! According to the bible, Israelites are god's chosen people and Christians are second class citizens when it comes to going to heaven. What's really funny is according to the mythology, the Semitic peoples are considered to be those descended from Noah's son Shem, which includes both Arabs and Jews. Do you suppose the role of Christians in heaven will be something along the lines of UN peace keeping forces on the Israel Lebanon boarder? All that aside, I would like to point out I specified "Zionist" in the previous post, not "Jew". It's not the same thing. You might want to try some searches on the topic to get a little background on the differences. When you strip off the facade, Zionism and Nazism are virtually identical.
