#1 Well, this moron certainly raises the bar for self-hating Jews.

"If we change that direction, then anti-Semitism also will diminish," he said. "I canÂ´t see how one could confront it directly."

If we change direction anti-semitism will certainly decrease as the number of Jews left alive decrease. Rollingover and playing nice with splodeydopes isn't an option genius. Is that the direction change you'd like to affect? They want you and yours dead. Period.

This guy has certainly missed a good opportunity to keep quiet

#2 "As an unintended consequence of my actions," he said, "I also contribute to that image."

Sheesh... now I gotta go out and buy a replacement B.S. meter -- this comment just bent the needle on the old one. Probably go digital this time...

#3 Yeah, no anti-Semitism in Europe before the existence of Israel...

#4 If "European anti-Semitism is the result of the policies of Israel and the United States," then Europeans are even stupider than I thought...

#7 Anti-Semitism is not the result of anything but stupidity. I have been hearing Soros' argument for 70 years now. Yes, good "non anti-semitic" Germans used it in the 30s ("I have nothing against Jews but because they own all the businesses etc...). If you believe that the actions of individuals (or even a government) lead to fanatic hate against whole peoples, races or cultures, then you are exactly the anti-whatever you say you are not.

I do not always agree with US politics, I'm not a big fan of George Bush (although he DOES some right things) but even if I completely loathed the actions of the current US administration I would have no reason to be anti-American.

Mr Soros, too many people have died in the last century because their henchmen believed that it was all the victim's fault.

The Israeli government could shut down Israel, leave the country to the Arabs and make all Israelis emigrate to the four corners of the world for the "sake of peace". It wouldnt't abolish anti-Semitism. Not one jota.

2 days ago we laid the foundation stone of a new synagogue in Munich. It will be in the heart of the old city. A whole new Jewish cultural center will exist in a few years. It will help to make Jewish people feel at home once again in a city that in 1945 only counted 7 surviving Jews. Will it lead to a decline of anti-Semitism? Probably not.

But it will fight it wherever it can.

#12 TGA, howdy! As long as you weren't "elk-hunting" it's okay. Sounds like you're a part of some great things there in Germany.

Snellenr: get the model that lets you dial in different resistances. Mine has settings for "Streisand" "Rangel" "de Villepin" (it's pink) and "Kennedy". You can even set all four in line at once; I have yet to see the needle bend at the top. Though it's been close a couple times.
