its not the first time that an article wasn't read, the quality of

anti-semitism, as i stated several times before on this list, has
nothing to do with "hating all Jews because they are Jewish". as many
others stated before (i.e. yoss), please read a bit about the meaning of
anti-semitism.

if you consider the idea that "the jews rule the world" as very
