    Boston: new center of Jewish hate?

    I am pleased that the Bay State is generally tolerant and, up until I attended the Walpurgisnacht hearings where the radical right took on Barney Frank (or was it the other way around), I have thought that our state residents were civil and not given to hate speech.

    That is, until I started noticing the huge number of neoconservative hate-fests organized in mainly Conservative and Orthodox synagogues. Geert Wilders has appeared at a few of them, and it’s clear these neocons are thrilled to be in bed with the Christian Right, organizations like CUJI and Israel my Delight or the New English Review, Jihad Watch, or Dhimmi Watch (who the hell is watching these people? The thought of a congregation inviting hate speech up to the bima, denouncing another religion and demonizing its members, as Congregation Ahavath Torah in Stoughton, Massachusetts did last February when it hosted Wilders, is absolutely nauseating. Then we have Alan Dershowitz, who never let facts or plagiarism get in his way. And then the David Project, which was involved with elements of the Republican Party in attempting to block the opening of a mosque. All in all, there may be as many Jewish bigots in our fair state as there are Christian Fundamentalists in Florida. Area synagogues like Ahavath Torah or Temple Emeth may start giving Westboro Baptist Church some serious competition.

    I wonder if the Boston Globe would touch that story?

    What is the purpose of this news article? Do we know the ethnic and/or relgious background of the other ball players? Should we? Is success in sports a metaphor
    for the American Dream in all avenues? Perhaps it is. To get the full success picture,
    let’s have an equal ethnic-religious frolic in the land of Big Banking, the Federal Reserve, the Treasury. Who knows, hillbillys might feel better if they knew a few of their own
    were top dogs there, instead of low dogs in the US Army.

    I was sent an article showing all the jewish people that have recieved the noble prize and others that are successfull. The article was critical of arabs whom do not have the numbers of people that jews do in these successful positions and accomplishments.
    Then I also was sent a diiferent article on a response to that one which stated the reasoning behind why there is a lack of arabs (not to mention any other races or the lack of there too). It is clear that control of power in positions which can elevate an individuals ideals or devices or even steal devices of other individuals as their own whn it was not originally.
    The moral of the story goes well with every single issue at hand in the world today..
    CONTROL:
    Who has it how did they get it and why has it been allowed to continue.
    Controlled by whom: ask that of the issues at hand every issue you can think of and trace it back to the root causes.
    Then change your views,names and identity to blend into the positions of the controls as an outsider till your called on to preform your tasks of loyalty.
