‘A Jewish holiday, a Gentile tragedy’ (F. Scott Fitzgerald)

Many Jewish holidays are also gentile tragedies. Passover celebrates for Jews the Exodus from Egypt. For Egyptians, however, it represents mass destruction at the hands of the Jews and their God. Purim for Jews represents triumph over their enemies. For enemies of Jews, Purim represents destruction. Hanukkah represents the triumph of tribal Jews over assimilated Jews.

Usually in Jewish history, the rigorists win.

Different groups have different interests. A Jewish Hollywood is good for Jews and not so good for the Protestants who used to rule America.

Every major Jewish organization in America supports immigration amnesty because they see a multicultural America as more user-friendly for Jews. For native American citizens, however, an immigration amnesty represents the loss of control over America. Many Jewish organizations in Europe support hate speech laws. Diminished freedom to criticize Jews may well be in Jewish interests but it’s probably not in gentile interests.
