I actually think that it has more to do with the influx of Moslem Immigrants, many of whom are dye-in-the-wool antisemites.


I doubt that, even if one were to assume that half of all Muslims were anti-Semitic (I'm not claiming anything here, this is purely hypothetical), their numbers in Western Europe (let alone Eastern Europe) are significant enough to cause rates that are well into the double-figures.

I just realized the mods fixed a typo in my OP. Hope this doesn't make a precedent, as every other OP is riddled with typos.

You're such a fucking idiot. The men "elected to the American presidency are just puppets used to make the American people feel safe and secure. They know that they could never get an actual Jew in the white house so they use puppets.

Not the most accurate of sources, but Wikipedia reported that many Jews choose to move to Israel because they were 'uncomfortable with Immigrant's antisemitism' and 'their government's anti-Israel stance'.

I can't imagine this display will have any positive effect on his poll numbers. However, he was recently seen eating some naan and paneer, which is loved around the island, so I think that may counterbalance it."

You'd be right to think so. No one (except for Grey Wolf) admits they are anti-semeitic. But deep down, they are.
