Jacobs, ... I am a hindu. A proud one as well. I would like to know something from you since you have been to India and I assume you know most other places in the world, Why is it that Jews are hated all over the world? Is it a problem with the Hindus, Christians, Muslims or is there a problem with the Jews?

As for your comments on The Hindus, I dont remember any of my friends talking hat about Jews. When the Jews came to India some 200 years ago, they perished because they couldnt survive here. It was not their cup of cake.

Still id urge you to reconsider what you just said about the Hindus. A minor incident in the airport or at the airport or at some hotel or anything does not reflect on the country as a whole. we are peace loving race here, we hate no one. India is more diversified than Europe and Latin America put together.

As for the low caste oppressions, let me remind you that the brahmins had nothing to gain form mis-interpreting the religious texts. It was the business class, accompanied by the ruling caste who had distorted these texts for their own gain. The brahmins were made the scapegoats.

These same brahmins were the one who had championed the cause of a casteless society,a society where rights would be delivered to these low caste people who had been oppressed for ages. But this effort went under the table as well because of their minority in the society.

Your example of the Low caste man who wanted to convert and go to UK is not surprising to me. Can you tell me why most Jews born in Israel leave their country and flee to America? Are they oppressed their as well? Is there a Caste discrimination in the jewish society as well, or is it a society based on economic class. Where the people with money have everything, while the poor can do nothing?

Hope to hear from you soon.

With Regards

Sid
