So much for everyone who said the raid was anti-Semitic.
The Bush administration did not raid Agri because the Bushies are anti-Semitic. They raided it because most of its employees were undocumented -just like the employees of Howard Industries.
It will be interesting to hear how Howard Industries treated its employees!

All those who are still looking to bury Rubashkin will quickly forget this raid, just like they forgot about all the other similar raids in recent years. To those, it’s as if this could only happen at Agri. While you may have your gripes against Agri, this happens all over, in many different fields.

#10, your comment in trying to draw a relationship between American subjugation of Indians and that of the problem today is a naive one and a deserving of the classic two wrongs dont make a right, response.

You are ok with people around the world waiting for proper visas, often waiting for years, while those from south of our border run away from immigration officers with gold US Dept of Immigration law enforcement badges and guns?

That is kosher to you?

#9, eric55, LOL. If you have a crystal ball I suggest you trade it in because it is smudged too much for you to see anything clearly. I could not be further from being an investor and I would not even hire illegals to rake my leaves.

#8, you are beyond the realm of reason in your statement that the only wrong of illegal Hispanics (not mentioning those from other Spanish speaking countries who still wait for their legal, proper visas) is that they are in America and the way they live here is no different than other immigrants.

I may be wrong but I can only assume you are sticking your neck out so far is that you are either an illegal yourself or you employ illegals, much to your own personal profit, at the expense of the theft of services from taxpayers monies illegal are not only not entitled to, but are exhausting. Someone involved in the line of alluring illegals here are also responsible for what they do, to a degree.

In the past the government used to make all sorts of amnesties to make all the illegals legal. Many people here have ancestors that became legal this way. G-d judges this world with Middah Kineged Middah, anyone who thinks they are so high and mighty to just say that someone who is illegal should simply be kicked out of this country should look in the mirror and see if that is the standard they want their life judged by. Remember that the Americans are only here because we subjugated the natives, who would most likely have deemed us all illegals.

#5 The only law the Hispanics are accused of violating is being in America. If the same law were in effect when we came, our ancestors would have been guilty. America was built on the idea of hard working people coming here, and doing hard work and building their lives. It doesn’t make any different if they are Irish, or Russian (as we were called 100 years), or Hispanic. HaShem didn’t give this land to the WASPs, or to us, and there is no reasonable basis in logic, or economics, or minority, to exclude hard working families from a neighboring country whose only crime is they want to be Americans (and the Hispanics are probably the most culturally like the typical American relative to any other non-Anglophones).

If being illegal means being alive and working to provide for your family than I want to be “illegal” too. Eliezer eved Avrohom was an “illegal” alien in Sodom as were the malachim who came to save Lot. Eliezer knew how to answer back to Midos Sodom, we should recognize Midos Sodom here in the U.S.A. for what it is and not subscribe to it.
