What is it with the Jews ?

Has there ever been a race so more inclined to the "Eye for an Eye" syndrome ?  Have they never heard of the philosophy of "Live and Let Live" ?  Over sixty years ago a British Army war hero and SAS officer was acquitted of involvement in the disappearance of a Jewish terrorist in Jerusalem. The evidence submitted in the case against Major Roy Farran was so palpably insufficient and manufactured as to have been laughable**, but not only did Jewish terrorists then send a parcel bomb to Farran's home in England( it killed his brother Rex ), but now, 62 years later, a wealthy New York Jew is paying for another Jew (who is a private detective) to stir up the case once more, even to the extent of conducting a search for the terrorists body (which was never found) along the road between Jerusalem and Jericho ( a road which has almost certainly long been improved from the dusty cart track it was in 1947 to a three lane super highway today ). As a part of his investigations, this detective is planning to interview the remaining five members of Farran's British Police squad, a plan that sixty odd years later is hardly likely to yield any benefits, other than it states a huge amount about the integrity of those police officers who have honourably agreed to assist !   When will the Jews learn that if they wish to be accepted as equal members of the World's community, they should endeavour to subscribe to the principals of that community, one of which is certainly tolerance, and another forgiveness !

You have made a good point here, but in respect of this particular issue I have to say that I see no difference at all between Jews and Israelis, since Israelis who are non Jewish can be dismissed from the equation, as can Jews who don't support Israel. A good example of  Jews supporting Israel is the fact that my thread about Major Fallon was prompted by a Jewish New Yorker (i.e. an American Jew ) now funding the detective work undertaken on his behalf by another Jew (surprise, surprise ! ) investigating the alleged disappearance of a Jewish terrorist in Palestine (now Israel) over 60 years ago. For me ALL Jews, irrespective of where they live, are Israelis as a result of their race, religion or partiality.

Originally posted by gcle2003 I doubt very much indeed that all Jews feel that the guy re-opening the investigation is doing the right thing. Or all Israelis for that matter.   If each of us was responsible for all the deeds committed by all other members of our race, nationality, religion or ethnicity, then we would all be guilty of horrific crimes.

The trouble is, though, that the general impression created by the activities of the Jews/Israelis supports my contention that every last one of them DOES welcome this investigation !

Have you polled all Jews?  

I have some very fine and much loved friends who are New York Jews and I long to meet them soon and get their opinion on the matter. However, if there are ten of 'em sitting at dinner with me when this subject is broached, I know that without doubt the best that one can hope for is that nine of them will refrain from commenting in order not to upset or offend me, until one of them decides to justify the investigation, and then they will all rally round the Israeli/Jewish flag rather than be seen NOT to !!!!!!! It is a Jewish thing !

What are you talking about, Nuvolari?  Jews aren't the only ones who subscribe to an eye for an eye.  As a matter of fact, the philosophy that you are attributing to only Jews is practiced through out the Middle East and other areas.  This makes it hardly a Jewish attribute.  Why is the reopening of a case so important?  People open up old investigations all the time, they use these old cases for books (the case of Jack the Ripper, a case concerning a Kennedy opened up by Marc Furman, of OJ fame, which sent the Kennedy in question to jail) is this different because it's two Jews?  If the Jews are always going to support Israel/Jews can/should two Jews ever be allowed to work/own a joint venture or even be allowed citizenship to any country other than Israel?  This is clearly an evil Jewish conspiracy to take over the world (I hope you see the sarcasm in this statement).  Jews couldn't care less about this investigation.  To be honest with you I doubt the ten Jews at your table will even know what you are talking about.

Maybe the thead title should have been "What is it with these monotheists?"

Originally posted by Cyrus Shahmiri Therefore not only all Muslims but also all Jews are terrorists, they should be killed in their own countries by your heroes and they have no right to avenge them!

Originally posted by Parnell Nuvolari, its the title and not so much the content... How would people react if I posted 'What is it with the blacks?'

I think that I may live to regret asking this question, but if Jews are NOT Jews, then what are they ? and, perhaps more importantly, do they want to be what you say they are not ?

Apologies for failing to respond to your first reply to my thread - I overlooked it.

My thread dealt originally with the actions of one Jew, I will agree to that. I am particularly interested in that case and hoped to generate some replies to it. However, very rapidly my original thread was widened by others to include  elements such as anti-Semitism.  You criticise me for using the term "they" when in fact I am talking about one Jew. In reality, though, I am effectively talking about ALL of them but did not wish to make my thread be so overtly anti Jewish. The actions of the one has long been echoed by an attitude of vengeance that seems to permeate ALL Israelis and this goes back many years and this tarnishes ALL Jews. For instance, when Jewish terrorists killed many innocent people by blowing up the King David Hotel in Jerusalem sixty years ago, the British authorities, arrested, tried, convicted and lawfully executed a number of the guilty Jewish terrorists - this was entirely in accordance with the rule of International Law. What was the response of the terrorists ? - they captured and hung a number of British soldiers ! - what is this if not an eye for an eye ?  Similarly, over the intervening years there has been dozens of instances of Jewish vengeance perpetrated on others and culminating in Israel invading or destroying a series of other Middle Eastern countries, because either a couple of Israeli infantrymen had been kidnapped or something else relatively trivial. Even the recent destruction of Gaza by the Israeli forces ( who used children as human shields ! )arose over the firing of rockets into Israel and only a relatively small number of Israeli deaths arising therefrom. What makes Israelis believe that that the loss of one Israeli life can onlyt be paid for by the spilling of the blood of many of those who oppose them ? When the IRA used Eire as a base for raiding into Ulster and bombing and killing British citizens, did Great Britain send its army into Eire to destroy it ?  No ! Great Britain used due process and diplomacy to resolve the issue - finally accepting into Government some of the murderous terrorists in order to permit the rule of democracy. This is the point I wish to make and one that perpetually escapes the Israeli government who will never find peace as long as they continue to apply the policy of an eye for an eye.
