You can’t escape being a Jew by supporting the Palestinians
It seems at this time that even those Jews with limited education in South Africa also want a piece of the action. Suddenly, those who know very little about the realities of life, due to them being teenagers, also take it upon themselves to preach wisdom and stand in solidarity with the Palestinians. They have joined the ranks of the so-called educated who preach the same song.

You ignoramuses need to understand that the Palestinians, along with many of the Muslim world will turn against you in the blink of an eye, and bay for your blood just as much as for any other Jew’s simply because you are Jewish.
Don’t expect any loyalty from these people because you will not get it. Anti-Semitism holds no boundaries. In the Nazis’ own words, “a Jew is a Jew is a Jew” and unfortunately for you, you will always be one.
Lucky for you, there is an upside for being Jewish. In fact, there are many upsides. Let’s take a look at just a few that you may need to fall back on some day.
Short of good food? The Chevrah Kadisha and Yad Aharon, among others, will feed you. Immigrating to Israel? You will gladly take the financial assistance that is offered to new olim. Want a free loan? Take your pick of the organisations that will assist you simply because you are a Jew. The list goes on.
The very beast that you defend is the very beast that will murder you without conscience. Fortunately for you, Israel, that you condemn, will never turn its back on you in your time of need, simply because you are a Jew.
