Any attacks in the name of Islam, however, are rightly understood by the Jews to hold a potential threat to themselves.

Yeh, Jews are special. Just like Muslims and Christians. And....

You're all the chosen ones it's just that some are more chosen than others.

70 years since the division of India and the founding of Pakistan - Hindus murdering Muslims and vice versa on a grand scales. 'When will they ever learn?'

The Jews are specifically targeted in the Koran, and have been the victims of Muslim attacks in France

Look in my signature, how many attacks have been against Jews? On your own territory, how many?

Yes Hindus and Muslims attack each other in Pakistan and India. In India lately there have been a lot of attacks by Hindus on Christians,

So religion is a great thing isn't it?

Your signature refers to the big headline stories, not the everyday neighborhood attacks on Jews.

And the post I was replying to - which you posted - was one of them.

As for "religion" being some kind of special problem, I'd point out that the Jews and Christians are the victims in these current cases, so not ALL religion is the problem.

Cobblers - the terrorists were not discriminating in Barcelona, they ran down anyone in their path, young old, all religions and none.

And as Mod pointed out, the idea that Jews could avoid being attacked by Muslims by emigrating to Israel is hilarious.
