Anti-Semitism's increasingly thin and hard-to-see line

78. Actually, the Puritans thought they were starting a country for Puritans.

Please read the history of the Jewish people. They have been persecuted for so long, longer than the Native Americans, longer than the American slaves. It's incredible.

To mention the Wiccans as persecuted compared to the persecution of Jewish people is something I just can hardly respond to. It indicates a questionable knowledge of Jewish history. (Not that I am an expert.)

I cannot think of a persecution as horrible as the Holocaust. Armenians were persecuted and killed. They suffered terribly. There have been many events of persecution including the persecution of the Irish by Britain believe it or not.

No people has suffered persecution like the Jewish people. Systematic, century-long persecution. That's why I support Israel.

I think that reparations should be made to the Palestinian people who lost property etc. and the account should be settled with Israel remaining a state. The people in the Middle East can learn to get along.

Remember, Christians are persecuted in some parts of the Middle East and have been persecuted for example in Egypt. I don't know what the situation is there.

If Jews could live anywhere with the security that they would not be persecuted then they probably would.

Please read the history of the Jewish people. They really are different and really have suffered more persecution than any other that I know of.
