    THE SLAUGHTER IN PITTSBURGH:

    In every generation they rise up against us to destroy us.

    In a classic act of anti-Semitic violence, which is what this is, Jews hear the echoes of every violent anti-Semitic act that has preceded it in history. And we hear those echoes because they are there. That which motivates Jew-hatred today is what has motivated it from time immemorial—the poisonously attractive idea that Jews need to be extirpated because our existence is an offense or a threat to an existing larger order. The blessing of Jewish life in America is that this notion has largely been consigned to the dregs from which today’s human malignancy rose. Despite the fact that most hate crimes in America are aimed at Jews, the actual number is vanishingly small—especially compared to France, from which Jews are now fleeing, and England, whose Labour Party is in the hands of an actual Jew-hater.

    Because we are obliged by the sickness of our political culture to analyze every despicable event in a manner designed to confirm our priors, we have already, mere hours after the barbarity, sunk into a nauseating discussion about how much blame to assign to the president for this unspeakable act. The obvious answer is: None. Donald Trump should be assigned no such blame, even if the shooter were the president of the Donald Trump Fan Club, because he pulled no trigger and committed no crime. Period. To do that, to assign blame, is to whitewash the crime itself and the criminal’s responsibility for it. He becomes a cultural robot, seized by an evil collective unconscious that drove him to his crimes.​

    I'm sure all of us would be keen to hear the 'rational, reactionary & logical' reasons why a 33 year old self confessed shut in who can't get a full time job and blames everyone else for his problems thinks anything. Those are the sort of opinions everyone sits up & takes notice of. Yep, top shelf opinions those.

    You don't just swim in the same swamp as the killer, you actively encourage his beliefs. Fortunately you are not prepared to act on them....yet anyway.

    Oh, and with your copious free time you should probably look up 'reactionary'. Don't use words you don't understand.

    Why doesn't the God they are praying to protect them? Maybe it is because he wants them killed (Revelation 6:9-11).

    Are you placing blame on Obama for all the police ambushes and rioting?

    trump said that the bomber was a false flag so maybe the shooter is also a false flap operation. Look at how much sympathy the targeted group is getting. We will be having annual observances over this with memorials.

    Reasons that are probably not as rational and reasonable as you imagine.

    There are some thoughts that should remain locked, unsaid and kept to oneself.

    I think you post qualifies as such.

    But you obviously aren’t so concerned with exposing that side of yourself.

    Exactly.

    Why would someone admit dislike of Jews?

    All those other antisemites are irrational, I am a rational one.

    You should.

    Hopefully we don’t see you next week on the news.

    You are not supposed to cherry pick. Besides, there is not that much good stuff in it. Believers want to go to heaven but they do not want to die. They must die before they can become a zombie and live forever. Jesus demands that they get killed before he returns. Believers should be celebrating every time something like this happens because it means that Jesus is getting ready to return. That should make them very happy. Instead they get all upset. No wonder he hasn't shown up during the past 2,000 years. They don't have the right attitude about it.

    May the victims rest in peace.

    May the shooter burn for eternity!

    I am also Jewish. I use neither electricity nor Internet on Sabbath.

    Sorry, you don't get to make up imaginary meanings to words. Of course, you have made up an imaginary world in which Jews are villains, so trying to get you to adhere to things like dictionaries is probably a false hope.

    Misusing words you don't understand isn't helping you look any smarter.

    Did you miss the sarcastic “Riiiiiiight”?

    It was put there to indicate sarcasm.

    Before I respond, I want to make sure I understand your post: Are you saying you're a rational anti-semite, or are you mocking Carl Von Clausewitz' POV?
