There’s no doubt there’s anti-Semitism on the left too, especially at universities where the pro-Palestine movement is strong. I’ve commented extensively in other fora about my disappointment in the Women’s March leaders fawning all over Louis Farakhan. However, this post is about the anti-Semitism supported by Trump, not all anti-Semitism. If it was about all anti-Semitism, it would have included the problems on the left too.

That’s an old canard of racists – they insist it’s just about the best for everybody. It’s the same with religious folks too only wanting people of their own religion in their country, or having a national religion, which these days is mostly Muslim countries, but most have done it in the past.

On principle, I disapprove of Israel. However, because of the centuries of historic and ongoing virulent anti-Semitism, and a few other issues, I’m prepared to put my usual objections aside in their case.

I think that the WordPress issue where names aren’t saved (which has happened to many sites) has caused you to be put on a watchlist because of the comment with links, especially as you tried to post the same one three times. That’s something that spammers do. You may be okay now because I’ve approved theses two comments. Fingers crossed! (‘Cause that makes a difference! 😀 )

This is so strange. I just posted a reply to your response and I don’t see it. No links and it was brief. I’ll send this and see what happens.

Thanks for the info. Usually, when there’s more than one link, the post appears but there’s a notice “awaiting moderation.” That didn’t happen this time — nothing happened, and since the name and email template on your site no longer saves my info and I have to enter it afresh each time I want to post a comment, and you informed me that the problem is on my end, I thought this must be related to that or perhaps I’d been banned from your site and didn’t know it. With that in mind, I went to another computer to post an inquiry, only to find my comment posted and your explanation, which I greatly appreciate. I still must figure out why my screen name and email address are no longer permanent on your site because I have no trouble with WEIT.

I can only endorse this comment!

Truth be told, there is really no way to know how many guns are out there in the U.S. It is true that a certain portion own lots of guns while there are many who have none. If you think about how urban the population is, there should be very few guns there, in the cities, but I am afraid there are tons of them there. Especially the hand guns and those are the worst, doing the most killing.

I got rid of 7 or 8 guns at least after my dad died a couple of years ago. They were mostly hunting type guns and I had no need for any of them. Only people involved in hunting are even interested in those type weapons. That has always been my point. Guns for hunting are not what the killers are using 99 percent of the time. The guy that went into that church did not have one hunting gun there, it was all guns to kill people. So the next question should be, why do we need or want those guns? Just because there is a second amendment, that is ridiculous. The second amendment is simply something that has been hijacked to allow the manufacturers to get rich while killing lots of people.
