So now I am criticized because I fail to be critical of Jews???<br /><br /><br />That's totally messed up, and your comment about not criticizing a club I am not a member of is just plain mean-spirited. And don't assume to know my level of Torah obsverance, because you don't have a clue, other than what snippets you can pick up and twist on a blog.<br /><br /><br />I don't normally get angry online or go off on people but there's a time and a place and this was it.Keli Atahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089132216830000713noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-19433922824935117562009-11-16T02:57:17.452+02:002009-11-16T02:57:17.452+02:00Keli, you have no business being critical of a clu...Keli, you have no business being critical of a club that you don't belong. The time of the goyim has ended. You just are not aware of it. Neither are most Jews. Be a Torah observer anyways, at all times.Shilohnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-31125943866192412952009-11-15T22:39:04.350+02:002009-11-15T22:39:04.350+02:00Interesting that you feel that way.

And even so-called self-hating Jews are capable of change and coming back home. So at some deep unrevealed level, the criticism is sincere (albeit it could be way off the mark)<br /><br />But you are never really sure of the motive when the criticism comes from outside...ellenhttp://www.jewishisrael.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7040911.post-83709467688837085242009-11-15T21:51:36.613+02:002009-11-15T21:51:36.613+02:00Watch out for Gordon Robertson and CBN.

They were all too quick to place the blame on Jews rather than the missionary who had been receiving threats from Muslims for trying to convert them.<br /><br /><br />The whole premise of whether Christian Zionists are more fervent Zionsists than American Jews makes me very uncomfortable as it seems to open the door for Christian criticism of Jews.<br /><br />All Jews.<br /><br /><br />In other words even when I have posts critical of Israeli officials I feel a sense of guilt because it feels terribly wrong and even anti-Semitic for one not born Jewish to criticize Jews--even when it is merited (Olmert, Sharon etc).<br /><br /><br />That probably doesn't make sense but nevertheless it's how I feel. I can't help but wonder how someone supposedly pro-Israel like Gordon Robertson feels in criticizing American Jews.<br /><br />How come it doesn't make him uneasy?<br /><br /><br />Give these Christian Zionists an opening to criticize American secular Jews and it will eventually lead to a criticism and (G-d forbid) criticism of all Jews.<br /><br />And I recall Tamar Yonah allowing a Christian Zionist to write about why American Jews hate Israel. It started out with an event at a Reform shul and congregants discussing the wealth of other congregants.<br /><br /><br />Even if that were true no way would I ever as a former Christian start a discussion by mentioning rich American Jews! Few people picked up on what the guy was really saying behind his "support" for Israel.Keli Atahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05089132216830000713noreply@blogger.com
