Surely this has got to lead to one of the most valuable lawsuits ever.

My daughter backed my car into a beemer this morning and did quite a bit of damage.

My day was still better than this guy’s.

“I didn’t write that shit,”

I wouldn’t even dignify it by calling it that.

It was way worse.

Bear in mind the limited space available in a tweet.

i would lay money that this article will be traced to a computer owned by someone with the initials “R” & “D” and originating in the U.S. …Washington, D.C., to be precise…

I understand he came up with the short word.

I can’t come up with a descriptor for the animal that wrote this kind of mind-boggling hatred for other human beings.

True… though the use of fake “Protocols”-like quotes supposedly preaching Jewish supremacy suggests that the actual author was an epic troll trying to discredit Jews, not a Jew actually calling for mass slaughter.

There ARE people who agree with this.

There are people in THIS country who have the same hatred for African-Americans.

It feeds the hatred.

I agree that the author was trying to discredit Jews, but the quotes are not fake.
There are extremists who preach those ideas and they do have followers.

Even Netanyahu has had to court Rabbi Ovadia Yosef for his influence in the Haredi community.

Lawsuit in the works, no doubt. At least I hope so!

Poor guy. Wonder if he’s just really crushed someone’s nuts in a lawsuit recently.

16

The piece claimed, I believe, to quote Talmudic doctrine that only Jews are human and deserve to live. Those quotes are fake, and no Jew, however nuts, would use them any more than they would use the Protocols. Extreme ultra-orthodox vileness certainly does, of course, exist… but there is no “official” Jewish tradition calling for the extermination of non-Jews.

17

Yes, of course there are. But they are hardly representative even of the Israeli right (just as, to be fair, calls for mass extermination of blacks would hardly represent the American right).

The fact that this bizarrely incendiary piece was posted under someone else’s name without their knowledge strongly suggests trolling, not a heartfelt sincere argument.

Fair enough. I still think it’s a growing undercurrent of belief in Israeli society.
