Magnification of Antipathies - Cataclismic End of Anti-Semitism

Submitted by M Tovey (United States), Jul 27, 2020 at 12:31

If the resurgent rise of anti-Semitism has any basis for rational discussion for why it is just plain suicide for any personal or corporate entity to engage in what has had historically tragic ramifications for holding animosities towards the Jewish people, then what is happening today sets the stage for understanding that once again, the world will again pay a tragic price for not eliminating anti-Semitism. Do these who practice that hatred think they are immune, like Turkey; or Iran; or much of the European Union's membership, who have Germany and its former minions as the cautionary tale?
Any rational individual should attempt to avert the actions of those who engage in such atrocities; but like a catastrophic incident of epic proportions, looking away does not keep it from happening, and being swept up in the aftermath is inevitable.
There is a reason Turkey is high on the list of judgement for such things; the leadership and those of like thinking are, once again, to be made examples of not messing with the Chosen people of the Eternal Sovereign of the Children of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. The others on the same list with Turkey should have understood why the Ottoman empire was pulled out of Jerusalem over a hundred years ago; and now they desire to return for more? Where is the rationality of that? They should have left it all well enough alone: but they can't, can they.
