In reply to the discussion: Jews gather nationwide on Chanukah to challenge Islamophobia and racism [View all]MosheFeingold
(3,051 posts)But the San Bernadino killers specifically targeted the Jewish guy.
And the media's reaction was "well, the Jewish guy was a hard core Zionist, so he pretty much was asking for it. Heck, it might be his fault."
There is a massive undercurrent in the West that Jews need to hide who they are and "ask" for attacks.
For example, in Paris, Jews have been told to remove mezzuzahs from their door and not light Chanukkah candles.
Next, I guess women need to wear burkas to prevent rape, like in Muslim countries.
Jews are fleeing to the right because of this tolerance of hate. For another example, for a long time I was on a first name basis with Sheldon Anderson (of Las Vegas fame). He was a reliable Democrat donor. He won't return a Democrat calls anymore. Now he is a rightist and vacillating between Ted Cruz (!) and Marco Rubio. I heard from my daughter his wife favors Cruz strongly.
This shift is going to be a huge problem for the DNC, financially.
