It’s the Jewish state that the world has a problem with. The world will always be against the Jews. We are a minority yet we are smarter and stronger than any other nationality.
Mark Twain said about the Jews:
“If the statistics are right, the Jews constitute but one quarter of one percent of the human race. It suggests a nebulous puff of star dust lost in the blaze of the Milky Way. Properly, the Jew ought hardly to be heard of, but he is heard of, has always been heard of. He is as prominent on the planet as any other people, and his importance is extravagantly out of proportion to the smallness of his bulk.
The Jew saw them all, survived them all, and is now what he always was, exhibiting no decadence, no infirmaties, of age, no weakening of his parts, no slowing of his energies, no dulling of his alert but aggressive mind. All things are mortal but the Jews; all other forces pass, but he remains. What is the secret of his immortality?”
*Mark Twain, September 1897*
I think jealousy and annoyance at the fact that no matter what – we will always be there, better than everybody else – is what pits so many against us. I don’t think that the world cares about whether the Jew is religious or not. A Jew is a Jew, no matter what.
