    are you actually giving a lesson on stereotypes? LOL

    Please don't be silly, noone buys into your justifications for making your anti-Semitic comments. You make a fool of yourself and then try it to pass it off by making some blowhard speech about stereotypes and why it's ok to have them since we humans can't ever rise above them.

    You have consistently referred to them as "The Jews", so I don't know why you watsed 3 or 4 posts trying to deny that.

    It's ok. I am used to anti all kinds of things. ;)

    Anyway, my posts are here for all to read. They can make up their own mind.

    But I am happy that you haven't pointed out any factual errors in my posts yet. :)

    i asked you to post proof that the Jews are running U.S. foreign policy. You havent other than making the connection that Doug Feith is Jewish.

    I didn't say they are running US foreign policy. I said they have big influence. When you have more than three Jews who are prominent in various Jewish organization that are on the top of the hierarchy to make foreign policy, if this is not big influence, then I don't think we can ever agree on this thing.

    But as I said, saying "big influence" is an opinion, so I don't want think I can force it to you. That's why I prefer we argue about facts instead.

    more statements which are just pure speculation. The fact of the matter is, you have no idea if it's true or not, you're simply making a connection in your mind that because some Jews are involved with the Iraq process, they heavily influence U.S. foreign policy, and that it all came as a result of a lucky break when 9/11 happened. And that this race as a whole should dominate America if it had half a brain.

    plz don't hide your hatred under smileys, or puffed up smoke about how you want to discuss facts. You have been making wild conspiratorial accussations about Jews for the whole thread. Be a man about it, and don't keep playing coy, cuz you're not doing a very good job.

    not to speak for ymc, but i think part of what he is talking about is the major influence that lobbyists working on behalf of the israeli government have on our policymakers.

    a big problem arises when people substitute "the jews" for the actions of "israel". i wouldnt go around making blanket statements about "the jews", but you cant deny that israel has a disproportionate amount of influence on our foreign policy.

    Agreed. It's like blaming all Catholics for the actions of the Vatican.

    Yes I get that he is trying to say that, but it's obvious that his problems with "the Jews" go much further than simply because of their lobbying.

    Israel has taken it on the chin quite a few times because of their eagerness to live peaceful lives in a region where everyone hates them. They are undoubtedly the best allies we probably have in the world next to the U.K. Is there a strong Israel lobby? yes. But in terms of allies, that is the one country in the world outside of the U.K. that can be counted on to help the U.S. in a crisis.

    its funny, lately I've been hearing these commercials for a Jewish League, or something like that. the guy comes on, and he starts talking about how anti semetism is on the rise, how a lot of it is coming out of the Middle East and some other subjects. I wanted to start a thread on it but I didn't. I don't have a problem with the add, just thought I'd mention it in this thread. if you listen to sports radio in Houston, I'm sure you've heard it.

    I believe it is the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) not the Jewish Defense League (JDL).

    The Jewish Defense League is our (Judaism) own little brand of neo-fanatic orthodox right wing nutjobs. Steer clear of them.


    Jewish Defense League (from Wikipedia)

    Wow. This thread REALLY got derailed. My primary concern was not with some conspiracy as muslims, christians nor jews will never agree on anything as a collective whole its impossible to have a conspiracy or a silly notion.

    But individuals do have power and if they have shown throughout their lives that they are extremely for a country, then we must make sure that their actions are for the best interest of the nation they serve and not biased.

    Just as a number of physicians of Pakistani descent were grouping to have Sheila Jackson Lee come speak and support her campaign and asked me to join and buy a table. I declined and wrote a letter to them stating that though she supports Pakistan (in front of them!), I don't agree with her politics and discussed points about why physicians should not support her either. If these people were in a political situation and supported her based on her fairer treatment of Pakistan, then I would raise the same point. That they cared more about Pakistan then the US or enough to influence their decision.

    Feith has shown an uneasy dedication to another country while serving in an extremely important role within the US government. If he's manipulating information, then that is a very serious situation. I think its quite fair to say that he is a devoted Zionist, which may not allow for US evenhandedness in the region if he had his way.


    Some of his Works and Organizations:

    Feith was a member of the study group which authored a controversial report entitled A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm [14], a set of policy recommendations for the newly elected Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu.

    In 1997, he published a lengthy article in Commentary, titled "A Strategy for Israel".

    Feith also served on the board of the Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs (JINSA), a think tank that promotes a military and strategic alliance between the United States and Israel. [15]

    Feith favors US support for Israeli security and has promoted US-Israeli cooperation. He also favors stronger US-Turkish cooperation, and increased military ties between Turkey and Israel. Both Feith and his father have been honored by the Zionist Organization of America (ZOA),

    Exactly. ADL is a great group. The JDL not so much.
