As a non-practicing jew, I agree with most of the things you say. But what you don't realize is that there are jews in the "club" and jews who will never be granted admission. I am in the latter group, because I committed the unpardonable sin of marrying a shiksa (non-jewish woman). As a result many jews will not socialize with me and my wife. That's fine with me cause I don't want to be in that club. Many, many jews are in my situation. I am an American. I don't want to visit Israel. I could care less. Most religious jews do distrust and hate non-jews. Jews are cheap as the day is long. They measure their worth buy how much money they have. They compete among themselves to see who can contribute the most to jew charities. Many have shiksa mistresses. The jewish wife knows this and so long as she gets the money she doesn't care. She will often have affairs with other men too. The point is don't put me in the same basket as other jews. I am not offended by your opinions of jews. But give me a break. I bleed red white and blue. I would give my life for America. You don't have to be my friend–but I am a patriot first second and third. Thank you.
