In his speech last week giving former NY Mayor Michael Bloomberg a “Genesis Prize,” Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu noted that Bloomberg has honored his late parents William and Charlotte by paying for a hospital wing and an ambulance center in their names in Israel. Then Netanyahu said:
Honoring your father and mother is part of an important Jewish tradition that became universal.
Really? There are long traditions of filial piety in other cultures. Confucius surely didn’t get the idea from Jews.
His ego and ability to lie knows no bounds. Another sick settler.

That must be where the world got the idea that ‘killing’ is bad, too! Nobody else ever thought of that anywhere.
The ten commandments were a great thing. Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not kill. Thous shalt not covet what thy neighbor has. The problem is that when values are ignored, they are meaningless, and only have value for show, and not for deeds, which is probably worse than not having them at all. Obviously, Israel has no trouble stealing, killing and coveting what their Palestinian neighbors have.
This man either does not use much of his intellect or just pure arrogant. It is in the Torah, the scripture you know that God gave Moses? “Honoring your father and mother is part of an important Jewish tradition that became universal.” No Benji, it is NOT tradition, rather a command from God.
Everything good has been invented by the Jewish people, and enhanced by the nuclear-armed state of Israel. Since that’s the case, what the hell was the Jew, Jesus, all about? Just asking.
