Jews were prohibited from becoming doctors, teachers or lawyers

Well I guess that explains the shocking lack of Jewish people in the medical or legal professions (not to mention university environments) in the US!

So why don't they enlist in the armed forces?

The US too had numerous such quotas for Jews, including in business, that is, corporate industry.

Your post would win the award for sarcasm. I wonder if Lyzko even read it.

When were the quotas for doctors and lawyers imposed and how many Jews were allowed to be doctors and lawyers?

Are you going to post the Swindlers List or do I have to do it myself?

Were the non-Jewish Robber Barons any better? They swindled plenty too-:)

Hateful? I am actually impressed with those who can swindle their best friends out of billions. It takes intelligence, planning, determination as well as accounting skills to avoid getting nailed by the feds for so long. Or connections.

Robbing a bank is nothing compared to the Madoff-class cunning.

Possibly those Jewish swindlers learned their dirty trade from their Christian neighbors

Project much?

Here is the bottom line: there would be no pogroms if those of Jewish faith were farmers, miners, or construction workers. Instead, they were parasites like bankers and lawyers who produced no wealth for the tribe but were the wealthiest themselves. That didn't sit well with the toiling natives everywhere, which is why anti-semitism is a global phenomenon, according to the ADL.

And this, my friends, is the basis for worldwide anti-semitism, not the crap about who crucified Jesus.

Jewish faith were farmers, miners

I'm pretty sure Jews were not allowed to own land in Poland/Lithuania for quite long - but you can prove me wrong
Novichok  5 | 7918

Jews were not allowed to own land

because they prayed to a different God or because they acted as a foreign and separate nation in a nation with its own language and prejudices against "goyim"?

For example, were Jewish parents open to their kids marrying non-Jews? Did the Jews in Poland ever say, "Poles and Jews"? In hiring, were Jewish store owners discriminating against non-Jews?

I have this feeling that merely asking those questions is anti-Semitic.

you are both antisemetic for asking them and anti islamic for offending the prophet muhammad.

I am relaxed but slightly annoyed by the deniers and the pretenders who somehow don't know the real reasons for anti-semitism. Just like with Hitler in other debates, their favorite person and the excuse is Jesus.

real reasons for anti-semitism

It's bigger than 'nasty Jews' or 'nasty Gentiles'....

Jewish values are, in some ways, a bit comparable to Gypsy values - maintaining group cohesion against a hostile outside majority is very important. This also requires ascribing negative attitudes to outsiders even when they might not be present.

This requires a delicate balance of irritating the majority but not enough to bring about serious reprisals and rigorous record keeping and the nurturing of grudges.

For a time (1950s-1980s give or take 5 or so years) non-Orthodox Jews were more interested in integrating into broader American society even celebrating the secular parts of some holidays. Then starting in the 1990s (roughly) it seems they decided that was a threat and they have to differentiate themselves more. Bye melting pot and welcome ethnic free-for-all.

I'm wondering if that coincided with (or was partly caused by?) the manifestation of strong anti-semitic feelings among more radical African Americans, which maybe debuted on the national stage in 1988 with Jesse Jackson's "Hymietown" remark (that was the first I heard of it at any rate).

Oddly enough, it was a gentile POLF, Pope John Paul II, who to his credit, finally "forgave" the Jews for the death of Christ.

That was very noble of him.

Jews should demand compensation from Christians for taking a Jew for the central figure of their religion.

Good point.

The same can be said about the ADL and its global map of anti-semitism. To induce more donations, anti-semitism must a threat, hence, massive. On the other hand, if it's really massive and everywhere, maybe it's the Jews that are a problem very similar to what Dirk just posted about Strzelec, a guy who has a problem with everybody and every country.

through the novel

Exactly. A novel. One of many that emerged from the horrors of war. Some based on fact, some not, most a mix.

That doesn't however detract from the horrific facts of the Shoah.

No, I am not. If fanatic Catholics accuse Jews of killing Jesus, then Jews are entitled to demand a compensation. A moral one, at least.

Primary school crossword: Who killed Jesus? Jews.

True answer: Romans

Name one "fanatic Catholic" who accused Jews of killing Jesus.

Using that logic, Jesus was killed by nails and a piece of wood.

The correct legal test is "but for...". That is why a hitman may skate with 25 to life but the person who ordered the hit ends up with life no parole.

Then by your logic, why wasn't Pontius Pilate ever prosecuted?
