hi shelly
i was only responding to the slogan that was saying no jews and dogs. there
was a call for cultural boycott, right...and the next email was the german
slogan. i am certainly not a zionist and shall never be but i was quite hurt
with that email! there is the idea that all jews are responsible for what
the israeli government is doing and dealing with backlash!! hence one jew
commits a crime all jews pay for it....one black man commits a crime all
blacks pay for it. do you understand what i mean now....i hope so. i dont
know whether this boycott is a good idea or not ....i certainly understand
it. i have had to deal with so much racism because of being a jew and of
color. i have had the shit kicked out of me by a bunch of skin heads saying
that they thought we burned you all.....
i hope all is cleared up.
