Many Jewish kids I heard from were permitted to watch the Grinch every year, yet somehow nobody (including my parents) is able to explain why this is so. Nearly everyone who wrote to me explained that the Boris Karloff version of the Grinch was "a classic."
What surfaces is a universal (and discomfiting) sense that the Grinch is a fundamentally Jewish show because the Grinch himself is a fundamentally Jewish character. I got one e-mail that concluded, "Who is more of a Grinch than a grumpy old Jew?" And a Jew with a heart problem no less?
But why do Jewish parents want to be pushing this peculiarly self-loathing vision of the bitter old Jewish man on their kids? Do we drag our kids to see The Merchant of Venice? If anything, the Grinch-as-old-Jew notion... is the ultimate fantasy for a Jewish kid with a case of Santa/tree/carols envy―Christmas, canceled."
It's a good thing the Europeans have never tried that. If there hadn't been 2000 years of anti-Semitism in Europe, there wouldn't be any Ashkinazi Jews left...

I dont mind the Jews, but what the Israeli's are doing to Palestine is a fucking war crime. Pushing the Palestinian people out of their own land by targeting civilians.....very poor show. They dont even seem to be showing any kind of remorse too.

BAWWWW. Read some international law some time.
If the authorities in Gazastan and Westbankistan allow "militants," as if calling them this distinguished them somehow from the de-facto governments, to shell Israeli civilians, that is casus belli. Hope the sandniggers like the smell of napalm in the morning, 'cause I sure do.
We Westerners are guilty of a certain solipsism. Western-style representative democracy is a fine system of government--for Westerners. For us, it is the best method of administering the social contract yet devised. But when we go to Africa, the kaffirs, once given democracy, instantaneously vote to exterminate Whitey then return to their natural state of cannibal savagery with a regularity equaling that of gravity or the speed of light in vacuum.
In Arab lands, the locals vote for the most belligerent ayatollah type available and then declare their bloodthirsty eagerness to wage war upon Westerners in general and Jews in particular.
To us rich, fat, comfortable, squeamish Westerners this is unthinkable because we believe all the Earth's nations to be exactly like us except for tiny differences like creed or skin color. We look at the world and see seven billion comfortable squeamish Unitarians, and we are shocked when kaffirs behave the way they have always behaved, we find the behavior of Arab fanatics unthinkable because we ourselves do not think that way.
Democracy is a fine thing but when we make a little tin god of it, there are consequences. As Kipling noted, democracy is not suited to the whims of the Lesser Breeds without the Law--inbred IQ-75 religious fanatics and IQ-55 cannibals, in other words.

So Buddhism is a series of statements that aren't true that are meant to get you to see things a certain way, or lies.
Why that is your name (or rather your online pseudonym), you silly troll you.
I'm not Shiite
I never said you were.
You are taking me for somebody else.
Not at all. Also, you should become a mod again. (At least here on the textboards, they're so shitty anymore.)

what's the point of you making hatred. is that what jesus instructed you to?
europeans (i.e. people of european origin) have been making the same mistake for centuries. the first time europeans criticised their own "perversion" was when paulus vladimir, or Pawel Wlodokowic, the recotor of the university of krakow, poland, represented poland to defend pagan lithuania at the council of constance in 1414. the then pope agreed with him. but europeans soon forgot it and have been making the same mistake again and again and again and again.

Short version:
Jews are hardcore. Jesus was a faggot.
Long version:
I can’t believe people rip on the Jews for having such a hardcore religion. Read the Old Testament, guys. God is heavy fucking metal there, killing first borns, viping out humanity, and turning people to salt. He was awesome…but they just had to make a sequel, didn’t they, and boy did it suck. Along comes this faggot, riding on donkeys and telling people to be nice to each other. WTF?! God was about ASS-KICKING, not fucking forgiveness or turning some other cheek. No wonder Judas sold him out: Because he wasn’t a fucking faggot.
So…do you like Jews, OP, or are you a faggot?
