    To SusanE - Mystique

    I think you've missed the pabooint! This is the story of the JEWS -, THEIR HERITAGE! We have always been good in business BUT it happened after they got their freedom - from slavery! you should read the story of the jews - from the beginning and up till today. Maybe then you'll understand - Jewdaism is NOT about business , power and money!!!!!!

    Mystique?

    Who is trying to Destroy the Jews? If they are in danger of disappearing from assimilation, it can't be blamed on persecution from the world . ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The Jews hold high positions and have high salaried careers in Finance, on Wall Street, in Fine Hospitals, prestigious Law Firms........these institutions all seem to open their arms to the Jews without any persecution. . . The Motion Picture Industry was built around Jewish values and Jewish humor.. Movie Moguls and Studio Heads were Jewish and could decide exactly the content and messages of the films that America and the rest of the world saw and to a large extent copied their lives after.. Same for Vaudeville, Broadway and then later Television. Now the Internet has become the media, and I can access Aish and Israel every day. . . Jews, few in numbers made a huge impact through the media. In this video one can see open worship at the Wall, one can see the Torah being held high in Public. Jews in Israel, Jews in America, are free and prospering. Isn't that a time for celebration and for looking forward? We heard quotes in the video from 1890's and 1940's about the Jews. Who is talking about the Jews today and what are they saying? And is anyone listening to them and quoting them? Seems this would be revelant.

    Thank God

    The Jews have survived only because God has preserved them. That is the only reason they have no been destoyed by those around them. They are hated because God has set his name on them and he is their protector despite the fact they have turned their back on him repeatedly since before the destruction of the first temple.
