The Scourge of Anti–Judaism

Scapegoating – The Scapegoat of History: Why blame the Jews? Why not blame the Jews? They are an easy target group – The Blame Culture – She/He made me do it! It’s your fault – you are the cause of all my problems…

Another way – facing the facts; face up to reality; taking responsibility; learning to accept the truth about human nature: The Selfish Gene –Richard Dawkins…

The Biblical approach – sinfulness and forgiveness; The Way of Holiness and Peace Explored…

The Sign of the Cross – A sign of Jew-hatred? Why have so many Jews and Muslims been put to death under this sign?

A Badge of Shame – A symbol shame

With antisemitism widely rearing its head once again – even if its Christian incarnation is no longer central to the phenomenon – it is worth thinking about its deep-rooted sources, and not merely any specific current events cause for its viral outbreak.

I will offer two main causes that when combined lead to a third central factor. Think of them as the three Ws: Wondering; Wandering; Why not me?

As Jews we continue to be exceedingly vulnerable to anti-Jewish hatred! As then, so to again in 2024 post October 2024. Hamas has opened the floodgates of hatred against Jewish people world-wide.

That was the heart of the problem of German Jewry: It was so much a part of German society that the Nazi blow hit it from within. Until 1938 my parents never thought of leaving Germany. “There’s no way the Germans we live with will continue to do these things. It’s only an episode.” That was the atmosphere. It was also the atmosphere on Kristallnacht. They couldn’t comprehend it. It came as a blow. I remember my mother standing pale and crying… I remember her phoning her gentile friends – she had more gentile friends than Jewish friends – No answer. No one answered her.
