    Ridicule.

    They are fighting an uphill battle as the Holocaust is an historical fact and that they spend an inordinate amount of bandwith doing mental gymnatics to prove fact wrong and then turn and say they are only posing innocent questions make them look like idiots.

    On top of that, anybody that thinks that an entire ethno religious group can be constantly slurred in today's world is a slack jawed moron and they sign onto it in every thread and post.

    I laugh as I post every reply and find it difficult to try to maintain any semblance of seriousness in my 'discussions' with them. Glad to see you're fighting them Ron, I mean, if you need to fight idiocy rather than ridicule - it power on dude.:roflol:

    the best way to fight anti-Semites is to expose their lies.

    What was Bernie Madoff thinking when he became the caricature of the Jewish negative stereotype?

    laughing at anti-Semites also helps defeat anti-Semitism.

    Same thing as Al Capone was when he became the caricature of white European stereotypes. Thinking of only himself rather than anybody else.

    another way to fight anti-Semitism is to debunk clear forgeries and lies like "The Protocols of the Elders of Zion"

    The why many Polish People do not like Jews has little or nothing to do with actual reasons, the same way others do not like Mexicans, Black People, White People, Italians, Americans, etc..... Bigotry, Racism....

    So, why did those Jews in the video hate Polish people so much?

    Saying Poland allowed the Holocaust to happen, their land is drenched in blood is about as offensive as I can think,

    Considering that Polish were in Auschwitz first, and many Polish were killed by Nazi Germany.

    So was Charles Chaplin.

    I couldn't care less.

    In their own art they were geniuses and what they filmed is up there among the very best.

    Roman Polanski the citizen is of no interest to me - even in jail he would still be a genius to me, as were many other "imperfect" authors such as Sir Artur Conan Doyle or Howard Phillips Lovecraft.

    If you only idolize perfect men you should be a Christian by now, because there was only one.

    Hey ron
    I have an obvious question
    What is anti semitism?

    To clarify...
    being jewish is not a racial identifier
    And for many people is is not a matter of religion either
    What are anti semites against?

    As a Jew who is pro Israel I strongly disagree. Here in America we have a thing called "free speech." If you don't like another person's opinion then you have the right to disagree and tell him why you think your argument is better. I think holocaust deniers are massively wrong but I would fight to the death to protect their right to express their opinion.

    It takes about 2 minutes to show the Holocaust is a scam...a massive scam... Start off with all the 6 million Jews dying in Holocausts and other ridiculous claims...going back to the 1800's before Hitler was born...

    people have preconditioned reflexes from endless brainwashing,and can't seem think rationally when dealing with certain topics.

    Imagine being a patron of bars and pubs...but not just in one city or country...but in many countries This person just likes to go to Taverns.....However, time and time again,bar after bar...they get kicked out....Not only that,all these bartenders and bouncers have only seen fit to kick this one particular individual out.,No one else ever gets kicked out. Obviously it is due to the behavior of this individual.

    Well,seeing Jews have been kicked out of every country they have ever lived in,often numerous times....over 100 times It is always the same reasons given. Usury,treachery,undermining society, monopolization,pushing decadence and depravity....Prominent figures through history have all said the same thing....Napoleon,Churchill,Washington,Franklin,General Patton,Nixon, Ulysses S. Grant,Mark Twain,MLK jr,Chales Lindberg,Henry Ford,on and on
    Maybe people really aren't just bored and feel like persecuting Jews,maybe it is possible Jewish behavior is the problem "WHAT FAMOUS MEN HAVE SAID ABOUT JEWS"

    You are talking about a situation that no longer exists, even among Jews.

    If it is one thing that WWII taught the Jews of Europe, is that sealing themselves into Ghettos does not protect them, it just makes them easier targets. Prior to WWII, in most of Europe they set themselves apart from society. They lived in their own communities, had their own language, and often times even had their own laws only for them (sound familiar in a modern context?).

    But that behavior made them seen as outsiders. Even if they had lived in a community for hundreds of years, they were still outsiders. That is no longer the case, now they blend into their communities like any other group.

    BTW, are you aware that one of the last ghettos was in China? Shanghai had it's own ghetto from the 19th century, and it was one of the few areas that the Japanese did not persecute the residents. In fact, they outright refused to turn the Jews living there over to the Germans during WWII.

    Of course, to the Japanese all foreigners were barbarians.

    Interesting how there have not been any posts on this thread since Trump was elected - this especially so since it has been reported that antisemitic attacks in the USA have spiked dramatically by members of the pro Trump far right.

    After viewing your Post, I googled: "increased anti Semitism in US" and primarily found an ADL study, if you trust the ADL which doesn't seem to look to closely at anti Semitic attacks and seems to have a rather broad definition of "anti Semitic attack".

    It appears that they consider bomb threats made by Jews (an Israeli) against Jews as an "anti Semitic attack".
    I don't know if they also consider Jewish individuals who paint swastikas on their own houses as "anti Semitic attacks"(1)
    For example, I wouldn't consider disputing the standard holocaust narrative as "anti Semitic" because people of all religions, nationalities, ethnic groups suffered persecution under the Third Reich.

    Since I view all individuals as equal, I don't consider the death of an individual any more profound because of his/her ethnicity or religious background.
    The Wiesenthal Center, however, feels differently & opposes a Ukrainian Bill that criminalizes holodomor denial because it "...cheapens the memory of Nazi victims."(2) which I feel is repulsively racist.

    https://www.timesofisrael.com/anti-semitic-incidents-surge-86-in-us-at-start-of-2017-adl/


    EXCERPT "“There’s been a significant, sustained increase in anti-Semitic activity since the start of 2016 and what’s most concerning is the fact that the numbers have accelerated over the past five months,” the group’s CEO Jonathan Greenblatt said in a statement.

    The Jewish civil rights group’s annual Audit of Anti-Semitic Incidents found 541 reported anti-Semitic incidents in the first four months of the current year, including 380 episodes of harassment, 161 bomb threats to Jewish institutions and 155 cases of anti-Jewish vandalism.

    Last month, an 18-year-old Israeli hacker from Ashkelon was arrested on suspicion of carrying out many of the bomb threats, some of them in exchange for money.

    “The 2016 presidential election and the heightened political atmosphere played a role in the increase,” the organization said in a press release. “For example, in Denver, graffiti posted in May 2016 said ‘Kill the Jews, Vote Trump.’ In November, a St. Petersburg, Florida man was accosted by someone who told him, ‘Trump is going to finish what Hitler started.'”CONTINUED

    EXCERPT "A Jewish man has been accused of spray-painting swastikas on his own house after he reported the incident to police as a hate crime.

    Andrew King claimed he found two swastikas on his home in Schenectady, New York, last month.

    Speaking to local newspaper The Daily Gazette at the time, he said “a vein of fear went right through me” when he saw the graffiti. “All that history attached to that Nazi symbol”.CONTINUED

    ahem .. I believe those "khazar" theorists only exclude Ashkenazim. Sephardim are grouped with Mizrahim (and are therefore 'legitimate' Jews, somehow)
