As an Indian, which has no tradition of antisemitism, I wish to record my observations over here. In this , I do not wish to offend any jew over here, and if did, I wish to humbly apologize.

However , I have always wondered why the jews have been targetted so vehemently by a lot of nations and races. The atrocities committed against them by the nazis , christian fundamentalists and the islamic fundamentalists , is unparalleled.

The jews have never persecuted any of these peoples. So why on earth are the jews being persecuted in such a vile unprecedented manner by all kinds of diverse people!!!! It always used to confound me.


I think perhaps a tangible superiority complex in some jews must have pricked the ego of some of these guys, and this must have been what set the base for the atrocities.

The fact that the jews lacked political and military power , also must have compounded the problems.

I also do not at all agree with the fact that people should be attacked for a perceived superiority complex. The jews with the attitude problem, should have been enlightened with wisdom and love,not through violence. After all, they were not harming anyone or anything.

Also I believe it may be just a minority of the jewish people, not at all the majority.

I have seen many jews who are humble ,tolerant,beautiful and broadminded. Albert Einstein, who was a zionist, was also a great secular humanist and a great role model for every human being on earth.

Just a few thoughts of mine, on this subject.
