I wasn't even born when this happened and none of my family was pro Hitler. I was always against Nazis, their brainless followers and most of them are surprisingly in the US now. I totally agree that they must have a special status in Germany and what was done to millions was insane, but I wouldn't say "we" did that to them. Even if the dual citizenship has financial reasons, you can't blame a whole race for being smarter than others. I understand sensitivity about that. Be clear that modern Germans are not blamed for what happened in WW2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted August 21, 2016 Share Posted August 21, 2016 Numerous off-topic posts and replies have been removed. The thread is about British Jews moving to Germany. It's not about Jews in general or about Israel. Continued trolling, baiting and inflammatory remarks will result in suspension. The regular posts should know better. I do hope a reminder isn't necessary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame on the entire demented Israel demonization agenda that bends over backwards to apply standards to Israel they wouldn't apply to other nations that aren't Jewish identified. Lowest 50 percent. Big lie. Look at the link that you supplied. Look at the map. You can see about 50 percent of the nations are NOT FREE, in other words much worse than Israel with much worse numbers than Israel. U.S. score is 21 (0 is best, 100 worst) Israel score is 32 Lebanon 56 Italy 32 Japan 26 Russia 83 China 87 Saudi 86 https://freedomhouse.org/report/freedom-press/freedom-press-2016 Lowest 50 percent, eh? Total B.S. Clear motivation. Sickening really. At least the truth is out now. I see it as typical leftist B.S. Israel is supposed to be as free as the U.S. which actually it isn't far from to make people not hate the one Jewish state but who cares how incredibly repressive the vast majority of over 50 Muslim dominated countries are. Thank you for the agenda reveal. The bizarre twisted denial of any ethnic factors in Jewish identity makes sense now. Classic. Sorry for the misunderstanding, that time I was referring to my second reference, Reporters Without Borders, where Israel does score in the bottom 50%. Not that Israel is clearly in the top 50% by FreedomHouse, it is still about in the middle, but never mind facts when you can launch into a spiel of hate at the slightest suspicion of someone having an agenda, right? Never miss an opportunity to call the race card. I was only being honest, unlike you with your choice to compare Israel to the US, which it still scores poorly against despite the US being among the least free of all Western countries. 'hey, look at them, they are worse than me', doesn't actually make Israel look good, just better than them, and while we in the free West are so much better than all of the Middle East that is just not enough to make Israel stand out as being different. As for your final nonsense, I already explained to you, in fact I spelled it out as if talking to a child, that I do not deny ethnic factors, but that to talk in the singular of 'The' Jewish ethnicity is exclusive, but you deny my words to instead listen to your own paranoid imagination.

Indeed so. Equating Jewish people with locusts chasing money could have come straight out of the mouth's of Hitler's Nazis. The poison is fully unleashed yet again.

The peppering of a few Yiddish words from some Jewish comedians and the popularity of Klezmer music is not the tip of the iceberg ... there is no Yiddish iceberg. Very old Jews from that area would speak it but it's not passed on to young people for a very long time now. Modern Jews in the diaspora if they want to learn a Jewish language, would usually learn modern Hebrew. Maybe it's a dying language but still many not so old folks still practice it. In Israel, many Russian Jews still speak Yiddish in parallel with Russian. Apart from those American boys leaving for Israel and enroll Tsahal, few people learn Hebrew nowadays. Prayers in Ashkenazi rite are far from Hebrew pronunciation! Those leaving France for Israel will have to but in the meantime speak mainly French.

I just see this. Firstly, I am answering a message which is imo out of topic (UK Jews moving to Germany). Much ignorance here, or it's deliberately biased. There are web sites that tell everything about Israeli startups and findings in medicine, and, more generally, in applied science. All fruits of the Israeli educational system, NOT EU or US systems, NOT from immigrants. I could list them but I believe IF you're honest, you'll do the searching yourself. >>> More jews will try to leave UK as they never feel belonging to any country and never did. That's for all Jewish names on the graves of those people who fought for France, Russia, UK, the USA, Canada and even Germany in successive wars - including members of my family. Now, Israel is a country. Israelis DO fight for THEIR OWN country, whatever anyone may hint. >>> they exploit the business opportunities and once they are over, they leave, like locusts imo Oh! I see :))) The same old argument and the same old reasons to it Edited November 11, 2016 by AGLV0121 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for that. About two million speakers. Quote A 1996 report by the Council of Europe estimates a worldwide Yiddish-speaking population of about two million. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yiddish I don't get your comment that few people learn Hebrew nowadays. If you're born in Israel, you learn Hebrew, right? Wiki says 9 million speakers, 5 in Israel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

May they leave the UK with nothing, as it would have been if it did not have an empire. though you're own ignorance shows through in your comment. Lets come to the topic. It is a shame that some people forget what happened to their forefathers. It is jumping out of the frying pan into the fire.

I see how it goes in local communities how hard when parents want their kids to learn Hebrew, and the remainder of Wiki stats probably includes many Israelis living out of Israel.
