Europe's Jewish problem
...For 2,000 years, Europe expelled or murdered Jews, stole their property, tried to crush their spirit, and yet, they came back even stronger. Jews are on the cutting-edge of everything, while Europe can't seem to find the tools. It doesn't make sense. Jews were supposed to be finished off in ghettos, gas ovens, and slave labor prisons. That didn't work. Ok, give them a state and let the Arabs, generously supplied by most European governments and corporations, finish them off; that didn't work either. Ok, Oslo, a diplomatic coup, land-for-nothing: still undecided. Welcome Iran to do the job, its nuclear reactors built by Russians, French and Germans, financed by the ever-neutral Swiss; well, maybe that will work. ...Ach, Europe, how you must shiver with humiliation when you need Israeli-produced technology, science and medicine. What angst overtakes you when you must decide whether to boycott Israeli fruit and vegetables, or enjoy them. Like a supposedly dispatched victim, Israel comes back to haunt Europe, not only to confront it with its strength, but ablaze with Jewishness. What an indignity for Europeans to see flourishing Jewish communities instead of piled corpses, bones of those buried in mass execution pits renewed in Israeli children. Europeans know their touted Kulture won't be around in 50 years. In fact, it wouldn't be around now except for American sentimentalism. Posted by: g(r)omgoru 2010-09-17 |
