There are figures available that show a direct correlation between Islamic immigration and the rise of attacks on Jews and Synagogues across Europe. Also the burning of Christian churches. No surprise that no one reports it. Douglas Murray has demonstrated it clearly in publications. 'The Strange Death of Europe' has a chapter on it. It's been going on for the last twenty years. Admittedly, not as much in the UK as on the continent.

Red and Blue Army!

Rude, unfriendly and don't queue - are you sure you weren't in France?

Red and Blue Army!

I agree with the general thrust of the post.

It's not without parallel to everything else though:

Oppose BLM/Taking the knee = Racist
Oppose Pride flags everywhere = Homophobic
Oppose Mass Migration to your little island = Racist
Oppose the indoctrination and butchery of vulnerable adults and children = Transphobic

You have however hit upon the point, whether it be intentional or not. Religion is of course the ultimate identity however we now have many an 'identity' battle line being drawn these days. What it does is nicely segregate society so that we all battle it out on the ground whilst those with power wield influence over the masses to steer them whichever way suits them best.

'Jew hating' is not a term I like being floated so loosely. What it does is draw another battle line which negates any sensible conversation and urges you to pick one side or t'other. I don't consider myself as particularly dogmatic and therefore sit outside such divisions, I like to base my thoughts, opinions and actions upon rationale.

The latest situation has of course immediately outlined battle lines now upon which many will choose either one side or the other. Unfortunately, especially with the Jewish population being such a minority, it looks as though they may all be on the front line and the most vulnerable purely as a numbers game.

This is however the very demonstration of geopolitics being brought to our streets. I think it actually quite fair to say as an Englishman that I don't give a f**k. You may argue that I should however I'd be readily standing by with a catalogue of reasons as to why I should not. Unfortunately the mass migration and supporting 'multiculturalism' narrative has only meant my attention be demanded as it is unfolding in front of my eyes and outside my door.

Every culture will have beef if not direct opposition to others, that's somewhat natural. Also, cultures have been killing one another off since the dawn of time. To suggest you cannot show any opposition or antagonism toward a culture that directly conflicts with your own is ludicrous beyond belief. Demanding you must side with one of two cultures other than your own is also beyond ridiculous, only surpassed in insanity by saying that if you don't side with them, you 'hate' them.

All sense or attempt to at least strive for sanity in things has long left this planet. Suggesting you 'hate' a group because you are not supporting them in a war with another group equally foreign to you, or because you even attempt to have a conversation to merely question their self designated saintliness, demonstrates this perfectly.

For what it's worth, I apparently have some Jewish heritage but for the most part are quite ignorant of them personally, socially and all else wise. I don't hate them, or any other group really, I don't have the energy let alone evidence for it. Equally, I don't hate Muslims, Arabs, Palestinians etc. I do not wish however to see any of them die needlessly and less so wish to see any atrocities on the streets of the UK. The way things have been orchestrated however, this is very likely. Absolute sh!tshow there and everywhere.

Now Zaha's got a bit of green grass ahead of him here... and finds Ambrose... not a bad effort!!!!

Europe has a history of the 'debtor village' forming a lynch-mob and taking out its 'creditor village' that exists two miles down the lane.

its nasty , but that is history. Christians were banned from money-lending, usury and the charging of interest on loans.

for a modern interpretation......look at our feelings towards banks during the 2008 financial crash. Its a bit like football referees.....the job-title determines how popular you are likely to be.

Eze Peasy at Anfield....

I wonder where you heard that from?

Considering the elite aren't the elite without it...

I knew you were talking historically.

However Badger, I've heard this kind of comment quite a few times. I think it's one of those situations where if you hear something enough times it becomes history but it has its own context as well.

I think what happens is that people hear that an event happened and then assume that this was then the case for hundreds of years rather than just a King's reign or period of time.

But just look at who actually look at who had the money and the important thing to ask is why....and also how that came to be.

How does that fit with 'everybody hated the Jews'....Let's be realistic, if everybody had hated the Jews then how come they managed to keep hold of the lolly?

The Templars were also a bank system in middle age Europe....They were destroyed and all their money stolen from them.

Ever wondered why the Templars never resurfaced as an economic force again but the Jews always did? Few people are interested or talk about that....no victimhood points for Europeans.

So there is what is said, and there is what happened in history. The Jews were certainly expelled from lots of countries at various times. However, ethnic nepotism is an extremely powerful force....something modern Europeans were weirdly guilted out of and are slowly finding out what the cost of that is. Thankfully I can say I was never part of that.
