    Yeah, it's learned from the intellectual class that writes and produces the stuff we dumb Americans greedily slurp up. If you're going to sling blame around there is plenty to go around.

    My priority, as a Christian, is God. I don't despise, nor hate what or who God loves.

    Whilst Paul was a Roman Jewish Christian, Paul was willing, if possible, to forfeit his own soul for his spiritually blind brethren, the Israelites.

    Romans 9:1-5
    1) I say the truth in Christ, I lie not, my conscience also bearing me witness in the Holy Ghost,
    2) That I have great heaviness and continual sorrow in my heart.
    3) For I could wish that myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my kinsmen according to the flesh:
    4) Who are Israelites; to whom pertaineth the adoption, and the glory, and the covenants, and the service of God, and the promises;
    5) Whose are the fathers, and of whom as concerning the flesh Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever. Amen.

    Romans 10:1-2
    1) BRETHREN, my heart's desire and prayer to God for Israel is, that they might be saved.
    2) For I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to knowledge.

    Romans 11:1-25
    1) I SAY then, Hath God cast away his people? God forbid. For I also am am an Israelite, of the seed of Abraham, of the tribe of Benjamin.
    2) God hath not cast away his people which he foreknew. Wot ye not what the scripture saith of Elias? how he maketh intercession to God against Israel, saying,
    3) Lord, they have killed thy prophets, and digged down thine alters; and I am left alone, and they seek my life.
    4) But what saith the answer of God unto him? I have reserved to myself seven thousand men, who have not bowed the knee to the image of Baal.
    5) Even so then at this present time also there is a remnant according to the election of grace.
    6) And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work.
    7) What then? Israel hath not obtained that which he seeketh for; but the election hath obtained it, and the rest were blinded.
    8) (According as it is written, God hath given them the spirit of slumber, eyes that they should not see, and ears that they should not hear;) unto this day.
    9) And David saith, Let their table be made a snare, and a trap, and a stumblingblock, and a recompense unto them:
    10) Let their eyes be darkened that they may not see, and bow down their back alway.
    11) I say then, Have they stumbled that they should fall? God forbid: but rather through their fall salvation is come unto the Gentiles, for to provoke them to jealousy.
    12) Now if the fall of them be the riches of the world, and the diminishing of them the riches of the Gentiles; how much more their fulness?
    13) For I speak to you Gentiles, inasmuch as I am the apostle of the Gentiles, I magnify mine office:
    14) If by any means I may provoke to emulation them which are my flesh, and might save some of them.
    15) For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world, what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead?
    16) For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the root be holy, so are the branches.
    17) And if some of the branches be broken off, and thou, being a wild olive tree, wert grafted in among them, and with them partakest of the root and fatness of the olive tree;
    18) Boast not against the branches. But if thou boast, thou bearing not the root, but the root thee.
    19) Thou wilt say then, The branches were broken off, that I might be grafted in.
    20) Well; because of unbelief they were broken off, and thou standest by faith. Be not highminded, but fear:
    21) For if God spared not the natural branches, take heed lest he also spare not thee.
    22) Behold therefore the goodness and severity of God: on them which fell, severity; but toward thee, goodness, if thou continue in his goodness: otherwise thou also shalt be cut off.
    23) And they also, if they abide not still in unbelief, shall be grafted in: for God is able to graft them in again.
    24) For if thou wert cut out of the olive tree which is wild by nature, and wert grafted contrary to nature into a good olive tree: how much more shall these, which be the natural branches, be grafted into their own olive tree?
    25) For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.

    Ya never worked and lived with them then. There were some exceptions though but the nice & kind were generally identified as (dare I say it- the word is “schmucks”) as well as other dis parishing names in Yiddish terms to describe those they considered weaklings.You are considered the “Goyem” not a very flattering label if you’re Yiddish proficient. I can fill pages in this forum with all the dirty underhanded stuff that is very commonplace practice regularly in the playbook but I don’t want to start, they are not worth the time and aggravation

    Paul lived and worked with them. As a matter of fact, they treated him as poorly as they treated the prophets. At best, we are Sinners saved by Grace.

    Also, most American "Jews", are Anti-Messiac and Anti-Zionist " Reform Jews". It's not right to judge the Israeli Jews by your experience with American Jews.

    Most American Jews are in love with this Carnal World. Most Israeli Jews are hoping for a Messiah.

    I worked with Israeli Jews so guess what…I was reffering to them as well. They in fact are more egregious. BTW, AmericanJews often call Israeli Jews a word, “ Buvon” loosely translated as arrogant SOB.
