You think what’s happening in Sderot, where Jews are being torn apart by crudely designed rockets on an HOURLY basis, isn’t lighting a fuse under anti-Semites all over the globe, including within the two "great democracies"–UK and USA?<\/p>\n

\nExhibit A<\/strong>: Russian-Jewish oligarch Roman Abramovich who spends most of his time in London, owns and operates one of England’s top soccer teams-CHELSEA FC. In late 2007, Abramovich fired his high-priced Portuguese coach and brought in, Avraham Grant, one of Israel’s top coaches. The initial anti-Semitic firestorm that was in part stoked by the British media, died down the minute Grant’s team started winning consecutive matches. In fact, Chelsea is having a very good season and at press time was in 3rd place in the UK’s top division. However, in recent days Grant and his actress wife Tzofit have been verbally and physically threatened by a hard core group of anti-Semitic Chelsea fans. When Chelsea lost a relatively unimportant local match to rival Tottenham Spurs (a team whose fans ironically call themselves "Jews", because of the veteran Jewish ownership of the team and large Jewish fan base) last week, Grant received an envelope with a mysterious powder, threatening letter attached. While Scotland Yard might be investigating this incident, no one in the British political and security hiearchy seems to be in a rush to arrest people even though these rabidly anti-Semitic fans aren’t exactly running from the authorities.<\/div>\n

\nExhibit B:<\/strong> It’s been said that "white men" can’t dunk a basketball. Perish the thought that an all-Jewish boys high school basketball squad has been beating the tar off of public and Christian high school teams across Colorado. However, there are miracles in metro Denver. Now, just as the Herzl\/Rocky Mt. Hebrew Academy is thisclose to qualifying for a regional championship, the Colorado High School Athletic Association refuses to change the playoff schedule to accommodate Herzl Academy’s Sabbath (non-playing) needs. The acrimony has gotten so bad that state politicians are looking to step into the picture and help the Herzl squad. If anything, Coloradon politicians don’t want the moniker-‘We’re Rocky Mountain High On Anti-Semitism.’<\/div>\n
