The history of the past 100 years gives Jews very solid grounds for concern over those who want to eliminate them. Six million Jewish men, women and children- forty percent of the world's Jewish population and at least two-thirds of Europe's Jews- were wiped out between 1939 and 1945. That goes many steps beyond paranoia. And what would you call people, some of whom post on AN, who are fearful of a Jewish conspiracy to dominate the world and who claim Jews control the U.S. government as well as international finance and media? Are they paranoid or thinking realistically? How about this quote from this thread? The Holocaust occurred during the 1940s. Do you agree the creation of Israel was worse than the Holocaust and World War II? I absolutely don't believe everyone is out to get Jews; only the antisemites are. And I will never get used to it.
