You might just say that Christians, in particular, the Lutherans were awful pikers and sought to use antisemitism over paying their debts
Pikers... LOL.
You know when I consider the psychology of the average human beings I have come into contact with, the reason for all this grief for Jews could be as simple as their being successful.
I read example after example where Jews show up in a new land with nothing, and become successful.
Nothing generates as much hate as success, in those that do not have it. In addition, nothing shows you where you stand, or what you are, as well as another persons success in an area you have none.
If a person works their whole life in a town, and one day a man shows up with nothing, then 10 years later owns a profitable business, and a home, and the life long townie still has nothing... Imagine what a weak person might conjure in their minds to absolve themselves of their failure and explain the others success.
We even have a contemporary saying for this: "haters gunna hate".
Yes, we are the 99%; common people versus wealthy bankers. Guess what percentage of the pre-WWII population the Jews represented, and guess what industries they were associated with?
The problem with this thinking is that we take a percentage of a group, we find their behaviour repugnant, but then rather than address the individuals involved, people take the path of blaming the entire group.
This was one of the reasons Spinoza (a personal hero of mine) was kicked out of his Jewish community in Amsterdam. The Jews there were trying to escape the "purges" of the times, they knew anyone causing trouble in their community may wind up getting them all blamed.
And they were correct in this thinking, history shows this. It didn't help he wanted to learn Latin either, or could not simply "accept" church dogma.
I didn't say "Jews control Hollywood" that's something that came out of your mouth. I stated they make movie after movie about the Holocaust, and they do do this. It's to remind people. But Joel Stein thinks they do control Hollywood... argue with him. http://articles.latimes.com/20...
Anti-Semite? I don't recognize Jewish "ownership" of this term, "Semites" are varied and many, the Jews being one portion of the group.
Semite. a member of any of various ancient and modern peoples originating in southwestern Asia, including the Akkadians, Canaanites, Phoenicians, Hebrews, and Arabs. a member of any of the peoples descended from Shem, the eldest son of Noah.
What I notice about people like you, is the quick insult that's guaranteed to kill the conversation, people like you can never discuss these things. People like you make strawmen, they have no good argument, only the insult, the strawman, and other obfuscations. People like you would rather people don't discuss these things, people like you would rather everyone remain ignorant. People like you are the problem with this World. You want to squash any discussion, just as a Nazi would have done.
"The war wasn’t only about abolishing fascism, but to conquer sales markets. We could have, if we had intended so, prevented this war from breaking out without doing one shot, but we didn’t want to." - Winston Churchill to Truman (Fultun, USA March 1946)
"Germany’s unforgivable crime before WW2 was its attempt to loosen its economy out of the world trade system and to build up an independent exchange system from which the world-finance couldn’t profit anymore....We butchered the wrong pig." -Winston Churchill (The Second World War - Bern, 1960)

Longerich, an authority on the Holocaust and Nazi era Germany, drew extensively on Goebbels’ diaries in his biography, which was published in Germany in 2010. Now those same passages from the diaries are set to appear in the English edition, which Penguin Random House UK and its imprint Bodley Head will publish on 7 May.
Rainer Dresen, general counsel of Random House Germany, told the Guardian that an important principle was at stake. “We are convinced that no money should go to a war criminal,” he said.
He used another persons work without permission, notice the word "extensively". If this made it into court they possibly have a case, or it would have been rejected, I do not think this is tried under US copyright law, or if there is any difference.
Clearly neither of us are lawyers, but you give almost nothing in your reply, so it's safe to ignore you.
The last statement shows me something, there is no "war criminal" profiting from it, it's his descendents, so that argument has no merit. In fact it's quite a nasty way of arguing the point, after all... it's been 70 years.
I'm aware of the usury issues, that's one thing Jews were allowed to do (though not to each other) and so became good at it.
In addition some trouble was stirred up by the claim Jews had Jesus (also a Jew) crucified.
Jesus was consider a bandit by the Romans, though this had a different meaning at the time (think seditious rabblerouser), and the standard punishment for bandits was crucifixion.
And today we watch Israel, AIPAC, Hollywood and multiple major financial institutions and their behavior. And some might come to see the extremist minority existing in the above as "all Jewish people", without regard to the contributions Jewish people have given this World.
Some were quite substantial... Einstein comes to mind, Spinoza, the list is long.
Apparently there is nothing quite so dangerous as success.
A more credible witness is the recently deceased Thuringian resident Clare Werner. On March 4, 1945, Werner, who was standing on a nearby hillside, witnessed an explosion in a military training area near the town of Ohrdruf.
"It was about 9:30 when I suddenly saw something... it was as bright as hundreds of bolts of lightning, red on the inside and yellow on the outside, so bright you could've read the newspaper. It all happened so quickly, and then we couldn't see anything at all. We just noticed there was a powerful wind..." The woman complained of "nose bleeds, headaches and pressure in the ears."
Troubling is that most everyone on the street will know what happened to Jews in WW2 if you ask.
If you mention Pol Pot they have no idea who he was, if you mention the Armenian genocide they will also have no idea what that is. In fact the only genocide well covered is the Jewish one, rarely are the 5 million others killed alongside them mentioned either.
Hollywood has produced movie after movie, I don't blame for keeping history alive to protect themselves, but arguing who can use the term genocide, and the lack of similar effort for genocides that followed leave me wondering.
The singular retelling of the "Holocaust" leaves everyone else out and is quite often used for propaganda purposes.
In fact, not to sound crass, Goebbels would have been proud.
The fascinating thing is how long the term "The Jewish Question" has been around.
People have used that term when considering what to do with Jews for hundreds of years. The thing most troubling about this is rarely do I see any explanation given for this behaviour, indeed facets of the behaviour exist all the way back to Biblical times.
For so much hatred to arise, for so long, against a single people, there must be a reason, and one not as simple or dismissive as "hate" or "prejudice".
Longerich, who is the professor at Royal Holloway's Holocaust Research Centre, maintains this case has important censorship implications. 'If you accept that a private person controls the rights to Goebbels' diaries, then – theoretically – you give this person the right to control research,' he said.
I don't agree with that assessment, especially when I watch the RIAA and MPAA go to work.
His copyright hasn't expired, his family (or estate) has a right to control his works, and Longerich should pay up. However, I am basing this on US copyright law, I'm not sure if that applies here. http://www.copyright.gov/title...
not so much that men are better at it, it's that women don't generally bother with it at all;
I'm going to stick with my opinion on parenting, little girls are raised to be little girls, and boys boys. That is where it all starts, so you're "making it mandatory" is little more than a "tip of the hat" and one wonders if women will actually get anything better when (as Pao states) men are better at it.
Lets start with parents, marketing, and babies.
Too late for the older others to do anything but "pretend".

Very well written, I have read this before as well and yet I still have trouble people could allow it.
It doesn't speak well of humans.
I would ask one thing, do you think this was the main reason, the driving force that allowed them to do what they did.
We can expect this to continue for as long at the people who put these politicians into power fall for the same stupid tricks.
Which is why I believe Hillary Clinton is targeting young people and women in her campaign.
Easy to ply NaÃveté in the youth vote, and empathy votes form the less politically aware females.
In our case, do we have anything but "these politicians" to vote for?
Always seems to be 2 sides of the same coin.
Ahhh haven't heard that one....
So the Jews control Hollywood? Anti-Semitic much?
I didn't say "Jews control Hollywood" that's something that came out of your mouth.

But Joel Stein thinks they do control Hollywood... argue with him.

I'm not so sure the comeuppance of the slattern justifies the title "upside of surveillance".
I rather put up with this **** than live in a surveillance society.
The only thing worse than people like this and their comments.
Are the seriously disingenuous apologies.
How about UDP and encryption... or lack of it.
So encrypted request and data sent with no encryption...
Someone tell me my thinking is wrong here.
It sounds a bit like a coding cluster fuck.

Maybe that’s a way of generating profit when you have a government contract, make mistakes.
It is baffling how everyone at NASA, Boeing, and ESAB could have forgotten to do the reinforcing
No what's baffling is that the metric system is still not in wide use in the USA.
That's baffling, a bunch of engineers screwing up is par for the course.
That's why they named it "Project Loon".
I think a better name is order.
