Jewish Museum Belgium Attacked 3 Dead

[Antigone]

Well you seem to never refrain from sticking your snout in America's affairs.
The difference is that your not American . As for me, both sides of my family came from Ireland. My Grandfather was raised in Hell's kitchen via Prince Edward Island.

Why does that make you an expert on Irish culture? Have you ever lived there? Did you major in Irish history? I have French roots but that doesn't mean I'm an expert on France.

You have the right, of course, to speculate, but the quote above plus the gross inaccuracies you posted in the thread about the EU parliament elections makes me think that you have a warped definition of what it means to be knowledgeable on something.

And you're forgetting that, through sociocultural dominance, the rest of the world tends to know more about the US than the US knows about the rest of the world.

You show your 'honour' in being Irish by eulogising terrorists, hellbent on overthrowing Irish democracy.

Nice...

Not to mention the rightful monarch.

I took it as a tongue in cheek swipe at invasion happy America, actually. Perhaps I misunderstood. Oh well, carry on.

To explain my way of thinking, two of the people who were killed were Israeli. I still believe it to have been a swipe at Israel because the person making the comment has made his hostility toward Israel and Israelis quite clear on this forum, so it makes sense that it was about Israel and not the US.

Report: Russian Orthodox Church distances itself from Ecumenical Patriarch’s meeting with Pope

The bishops of Belgium have issued a statement decrying the May 24 shooting at the Jewish Museum of Belgium.
“Violence cannot be justified, let alone for religious motives,” the bishops said, as they called for a deeper interreligious and intercultural dialogue.

This is an American dominated fourm, the comment was quoting an American supporter of oppressive Zionism as do most American Foreign policy Hawks.

But you see it differently, so be it...

Your comment quoted nobody. Is nobody an American supporter of oppressive Zionism?

My post was the third one. The first from an advocate for military Zionism and the second posted the usual old tripe about Europe being anti-Semite...

Thank you for admitting your error in saying it quoted anybody.

 

[S.ilvio]

Yeah...

Um... with respect, I think you may have some misinformed ideas here. Muslims are traditionally more accepting of Jews than Christians are. It is Israel they have a problem with, because of the Isaeli treatment of Palestine.

Where you get the idea that "it's become stylish to accept Islamic beliefs", is really quite unclear.

Really? Islamic leaders were supportive of Hitler in WW11, mainly because of his anti Jewish policies. BEFORE Israel existed. Muslims have been less accepting of Jews since the time of Muhammed, who killed a great many.

I hear a few Nazi's have won seats in the Euro parliament. Guess things are gonna get a whole lot more dangerous for Jews now.

I think they have a lot more to fear from the Muslims in Europe.

 

[Texas Ranger]

Yes, especially if the Muslims team up with the Nazi's again.

About what? There were Arab leaders that expressed support of the Nazi's policies toward Jews.

Oh please...
