I Think I've Figured it Out

.
Remember a few months back when I was pondering the idea that "so-called" anti-Semitism might have a sound and reasonable cause? I'd been exposed, pretty much for the first time, to a lot of arguments that for reasons of their own tribal survival, Jews had done things to the serious detriment of other races and peoples that have caused lasting, and in many cases, appropriate, resentment and anger.

And, let's face it, it is certainly true that we all—almost always—conspire in our own difficulties. It's human nature. So, there's almost certainly truth to the idea that Jews have alienated others by their own selfish actions and attitudes, thus contributing to their own suffering. Thereby earning full membership in the Family of Human Beings.

And, let's be honest. Nobody is innocent.

But in the final analysis, when there are conflicting stories, arguments and evidence...sometimes the the best way to judge the merits of a case is to consider the character of the antagonists.

Like Solomon.

It must be admitted, the Jew-hater roster is impressive...Nazis, Islamists, the KKK, Marxists, Communists, Fascists, Socialists, the United Nations, White Supremacists, Black Supremacists and Atheists. Oh...and much of today's Euroslime.

Alternatively, the Jew-defenders include Conservatives, classical Liberals, committed Christians, the Pope and the Catholic Church, small "d" democrats, Free Marketeers and all decent people of good will.

Really isn't hard to pick a side, is it?
