					<description>Here is a &lt;a href="http://www.etherzone.com/2008/stang080808.shtml" rel="nofollow"&gt;contemporary example&lt;/a&gt; of how the "by deception we shall prevail" continues. Note the typical jewish trick of substituting "Christian" for "Gentile." This is exactly the use of the ambiguity between religion and tribe that the term "anti-Semitism" exploits. Consider just this one paragraph:

"For centuries, Christians killed each other. Hindus kill Christians and Muslims. Muslims kill everyone, including other Muslims. Everyone knows this."

First, note the odd way of putting things. Why not say instead, and more accurately, "For centuries, Aryan nations have gone to war with other Aryan nations, and the same can be said of Indians and Arabs." This would be succinct and capture the real issue, which is not religious.

(He forgets to mention the times in which jewish financiers have made possible some of those wars, and even helped both sides in some. But I digress.)

Read the whole article and substitute the ethnic term for the religious one, and the fraud will instantly become clear.</description>

					<description>About the Jews Conversion (comments 1,7,8,10): 

Apparently &lt;a href="http://www.americanvision.org/articlearchive/10-22-04.asp" rel="nofollow"&gt;DeMar thinks&lt;/a&gt; the best option is that all Israel has been saved.

It's actually a decent, brief treatment of the different options and their problems.</description>

					<description>A German politician &lt;a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.jta.org/cgi-bin/iowa/news/article/Germanpartytriesd.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;made similar observations&lt;/a&gt; in a speech, and now it is creating a firestorm. Let's hope Hohmann sticks to his guns, and doesn't break down into a sea of apologies.

Imagine being sued, and possibly kicked out of Parliament, for pointing out that most Bolsheviks were jews!

But the good news is that little voices like this are starting to appear everywhere, even in Germany.</description>

					<description>Speaking of anti-Semitism . . . &lt;a rel="nofollow" href="http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9B04E6DD1231F934A35753C1A96F958260&#038;n=Top/Reference/Times%20Topics/Subjects/P/Pentagon%20Papers" rel="nofollow"&gt;Richard Nixon&lt;/a&gt; said the following on one of his secret recordings.

"The only two non-Jews in the communist conspiracy," [Nixon] said, "were [Whittaker] Chambers and [Alger] Hiss. Many felt that Hiss was. He could have been a half, but he was not by religion. The only two non-Jews. Every other one was a Jew. And it raised hell with us."

Nixon, of course, was a member of the House Committee on Un-American Activities who investigated the (real) Communist threat.  He was in a position to know.

That Jews were the main players within the American Communist Party should come as no surprise since Jews were the dominant ethnic group of the Bolshevik revolution.

In 1920 Robert Wilton, the Russian correspondent of The Times published a book in French, &lt;em&gt;Les Derniers Jours des Romanofs&lt;/em&gt;, which gave the racial background of all the members of the Soviet government.  Here is his list.

Central Committee:

NAME 	NATIONALITY
Bronstein (Trotsky) 	Jew
Apfelbaum (Zinovief) 	Jew
Lourie (Larine) 	Jew
Ouritski 		Jew
Volodarski 		Jew
Rosenfeldt (Kamanef) 	Jew
Smidovitch 		Jew
Sverdlof (Yankel) 	Jew
Nakhamkes (Steklof) 	Jew
Ulyanov (Lenin) 	Russian
Krylenko 		Russian
Lounatcharski 		Russian

The Council of the People's Commissars:

MINISTRY 	NAME 		NATIONALITY
President 	Lenin 		Russian
Foreign Affairs	Tchitcherine 	Russian
Nationalities 	Stalin	 	Georgian
Agriculture 	Protian 	Armenian

Religions 	Spitzberg 	Jew
Interior 	Zinovief 	Jew
Hygiene 	Anvelt 		Jew
Finance 	Goukovski 	Jew
Press 		Volodarski 	Jew
Elections 	Ouritski 	Jew
Justice 	I. Steinberg 	Jew
Refugees 	Fenigstein 	Jew
Refugees, asst.	Savitch 	Jew
Refugees, asst.	Zaslovski 	Jew

Central Executive Committee:

NAME 			NATIONALITY
Sverdlov (president) 	Jew
Avanessof (sec.) 	Armenian
Bruno 			Lett
Babtchinski 		Jew
Bukharin 		Russian
Weinberg 		Jew
Gailiss 		Jew
Ganzburg 		Jew

Souriupa 		Ukranian
Tchavtchevadze 		Georgian
Scheikmann 		Jew
Rosental 		Jew
Achkinazi 		Imeretian
Karakhane 		Karaim (Jew)
Rose 			Jew
Radek		 	Jew
Sclichter 		Jew
Schikolini 		Jew
Chklianski 		Jew
Pravdine	 	Jew

Both the Central Committee and the Council of the People's Commissars were 3/4 Jews.  And 2/3 of the Central Executive were Jewish.

Scholars have also shown that &lt;a rel="nofollow" href="http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9E0CE7D8123EF936A3575BC0A964958260" rel="nofollow"&gt;Lenin's&lt;/a&gt; maternal grandfather was a Jew.  According to Zev Ben-Shlomo, "Lenin did indeed praise Jews in somewhat excessive terms, just as he was excessive in his denigration of Russians. Referring probably to himself, he told the writer, Maxim Gorky, that "the clever Russian is almost always a Jew or has Jewish blood in him." He also contrasted Jews' steadfastness as revolutionaries to that of the Russians."

Is the Jewish make-up of the American and Russian Communists just a coincidence?  Or is pointing this out an indication that I am "anti-Semitic"?</description>

The Talmud and its teachers render “anti-Semites” Amalek and what are Jews to do with “Amalek”?
The BBC is no longer allowed to refer to Israeli assassinations, those assinated by Israelis, as such but rather as targeted killings.</description>

					<description>Joshua (#1) -- I assume you are raising the question of the Khazars. If they were gentilic converts to Judaism, can they be regarded as heirs of the covenant made with Abraham?

Ordinarily, of course, people can be grafted in to a covenant. In this case, however, it is gentilic Christians that were grafted in; and that part of the main stalk that was unbelieving was cut off.

Which is worse, then, to be an heir of the commonwealth of Israel at the time of Christ and reject the Son of God? or, as a gentile 700 years later, in full cognizance of the situation, convert to the covenant-breakers? For me, it is very difficult to say. Either situation counts as extreme wickedness.

Both types of "jew" would count as covenant breakers; I would say one can easily become a covenant-breaker by conversion. The Khazar would not be an "heir to the promises"; but it is questionable to me if the jew by natural descent could count as that either. They were cut off. They must now be grafted in, by conversion.

It is with that background that your last question gains relevance. Would it make any sense to regard Paul's statements especially in Rom 11 as pertaining to a later "convert" to judaism? And what would this imply about prayers for the conversion of the jews?

As if Rom 11 were not already difficult enough!

At this point, I am only able to suggest some possibilities that I could imagine would be worth considering:

1. The prediction of the conversion of the jews has already been fulfilled.

2. The prediction only applies to one part of modern judaica, e.g. the Sephardics.

3. The prediction applies to all claimants to judaism as exemplars of human wickedness in its most extreme form; then &lt;i&gt;a fortiori&lt;/i&gt;, we would pray for all other tribes of humanity as well.

4. I think the amillennialists argue that the passage doesn't apply to jews to begin with. I'll have to go review some of their work.</description>

					<description>Speaking of Jews repenting, apparently the Benedict's loosening of restrictions about the Tridentine mass has been met with charges of anti-semitism by you-know-whom, because the old Latin rite includes prayers for the conversion of Jews! Reformed churches routinely pray for the conversion of the Jews. But I guess we're too small a group to matter. Or maybe the anti-defamation league just hasn't caught up with us yet. Christian Witness for Israel, I group I have supported, seems to be now expecting those who want to see the Jews come to Christ, to similarly and simultaneously, support political Israel. I don't know if it's the new head of CWI or if I just began noticing it.

A question: technically, are not the Arabs and other Middle Easterners also Semites? If so, Israel against Palestine is intrasemitic warfare. No charges of anti-semitism should ensue for those who support Palestine, correct?</description>

I don&#8217;t know if it&#8217;s the new head of CWI or if I just began noticing it.</p>
<p>A question: technically, are not the Arabs and other Middle Easterners also Semites? If so, Israel against Palestine is intrasemitic warfare. No charges of anti-semitism should ensue for those who support Palestine, correct?
