re: #17 SanFranciscoZionist

I’m as enthusiastic about the more golden moments of the Jewish communities of the Muslim world as anyone, but…bullshit.

This is like saying that that the North was a paradise for black Americans. Did the worst shit happen up there? No. See? It was great.

The State of Israel did not cause the invention of anti-Semitism in the Muslim world.

and I call you on your analogy bull shit. Jews in Islamic lands were not slightly better off than say comparing blacks in slavery in the south and blacks free but treated like dirt in the north.

Jews were called over to live into the Islamic world, given political power, allowed free expression of their religion as best as there could be back then and were allowed to go to schools of higher learning.

What standard are you comparing the Islamic world of old? The modern USA? No nation on earth came close to America’s tolerance until after WW2!

So here is a view of history you may not be comfortable with but the estblishment of Israel turned a civilization that had been tolerant towards Jews into enemies. Something that was not the case before.
