Very interesting. I am not Jewish, but I never understood what the deal is with Jew haters. Well, I still don't understand, but getting an idea of the origins of antisemitism helps. Thanks for the video!
"Semite" means anyone whose native language is derived from Hebrew, Arabic, or Aramaic. Definitions matter.
Why do they always talk like that? It’s actually comical!
There’s no such thing as antisemitism. There are just reactions to Jewish beliefs and behavior.
A 'semite" is anyone whose native language is derived from Hebrew, Arabic, or Aramaic. So, not just Jewish people.
Interesting. Somehow I never knew about the mistranslation about horns on Moses’ head and how horns became a thing
I remember Dr New Morton and I don’t know how to spell his name. I’m sorry I miss you Mr. Berman Mrs. Berman you’re in a better place now.
Hi Miss Mr. and Mrs. Berman and their sons they were most wonderful people I met and now I’m listening to this video and she’s bringing back memories of when I grew up. I wish I knew that when they were still with us oh my God how wonderful this world is sometimes.
I don’t know how this UA-cam came up, but you see God is good. I love the Burmans 1:11:02 1:11:03 1:11:04 1:11:05 1:11:06 1:11:06 1:11:07 1:11:08 1:11:09 so much when they were alive and I didn’t know I’m Italian my family came from Italy. I was born in Stanford. I didn’t realize that we had the same upbringing but different different religions. This was a very nice video. Thank you. Whoever put it out.
My comment had the word hurt in it, which should not be there. They melted my heart. They were most wonderful, beautiful family. I’ve met in my life so far.
I love this woman, her husband and her sons. They hurt her husband and her were the most wonderful people I’ve met in my life.

Very interesting, I did not know this, so thank you.
Does Israel really believe they can do what they are doing in Gaza and not be judged?
Good Documentary!
@55:00 weird, jews don't seem to believe that. Some of the biggest Rabbis have said otherwise... something about “Goyim were born only to serve us. Without that, they have no place in the world - only to serve the People of Israel.”
I have analyzed your channel. Your video content is very nice, I enjoy it. But I notice one thing that your UA-cam channel Some Problem I find that. Can I discuss something this problems with you?
There are some problems in your channel due to which viewers are low, if you solve the problems your channel will grow like others
Thank you Lee Fanwick, Julian Reitman, Bernie Levy and The Jewish Historical Society of Fairfield County for this lovely interview of our parents.
How do you go from Lutheran to Judaism unless you are truly blinded? "🔥the Jews who killed the Lord Jesus🔥 and the prophets and also drove us out" - 1 Thess 2: 14-15 " but are a synagogue of Satan" - Revelations 2:9 - the Almighty GOD

Oh shit, I thought this was Internet Historian.
For some reason that is totally beyond me, The Jewish religion has decided to remain a small group. If it were larger, maybe it wouldn't been seen as a target.
Hello I recently came across your UA-cam channel and was impressed by the quality of your content However, after conducting a comprehensive analysis. I noticed is room for improvement for your UA-cam channel for getting more visitors and subscribers ★ your thumbnail needs to be more eye - catchy ★ your video title, meta description needs to be improved ★ you need to use more irrelevant tags and keywords Kind Regards
Please- give us all a break- society needs it.
Hatred and prejudice is so illogical but unfortunately has very real consequences. I am not Jewish but I categorically oppose all hate and prejudice. Thank you for this informative lecture.
The Holocaust didn't happen overnight. It took from about 1933 to 1945. Thats 12 years. Whats happening in Palestine is taking even longer, but the process is comparable.
Thank you for the interesting lecture! I was really curious when and why started hatred against Jews. Still not convinced by the answer "why", but it was very useful to follow the whole history. Sorry but the swastika example in 1:02:13 is not in Cambodia, but "Elefantporten" in Carlsberg city in Copenhagen. And yes, it was used as a symbol of luck and success. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_use_of_the_swastika_in_the_early_20th_century#Europe
Very informative, thanks !
Keep making Pegasus , precision missiles and Iron Domes and keep hoping that selfish Abraham' s God will keep blessing Jews and destroy all non Jews. If you believe in selfishness, you grow hate against you!😂
When we talk about antisemitism, there are more than 10 races and we mostly talk about only antisemitism and the related White Supremacy. Why is that many like to have anti-Jew views including that of Hitler? Why not Jews ponder why many are antisemitism? Is it due to their King David conduct; rape, murder, cheating and Psalm-singing: acting as God and Satan at the same time. Not going to run well unless you look into a mirror
Plestainians children can rewrite "Anne Frank Dairy" in this decade. As a jews, do you feel shame to see zionist genocide against Palestinians!
Exodus 22:21 “Do not oppress the stranger for you know the heart of a stranger for you yourselves were strangers in Egypt.”
1 Chronicles 4:40-41 [40]And they found fat pasture and good, and the land was wide, and quiet, and peaceable; for they of Ham had dwelt there of old. [41]And these written by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and smote their tents, and the habitations that were found there, and destroyed them utterly unto this day, and dwelt in their rooms: because there was pasture there for their flocks.
Genesis 34:8-30 [8]And Hamor communed with them, saying, The soul of my son Shechem longeth for your daughter: I pray you give her him to wife. [9]And make ye marriages with us, and give your daughters unto us, and take our daughters unto you. [10]And ye shall dwell with us: and the land shall be before you; dwell and trade ye therein, and get you possessions therein. [11]And Shechem said unto her father and unto her brethren, Let me find grace in your eyes, and what ye shall say unto me I will give. [12]Ask me never so much dowry and gift, and I will give according as ye shall say unto me: but give me the damsel to wife. [13]And the sons of Jacob answered Shechem and Hamor his father deceitfully, and said, because he had defiled Dinah their sister: [14]And they said unto them, We cannot do this thing, to give our sister to one that is uncircumcised; for that were a reproach unto us: [15]But in this will we consent unto you: If ye will be as we be, that every male of you be circumcised; [16]Then will we give our daughters unto you, and we will take your daughters to us, and we will dwell with you, and we will become one people. [17]But if ye will not hearken unto us, to be circumcised; then will we take our daughter, and we will be gone. [18]And their words pleased Hamor, and Shechem Hamor's son. [19]And the young man deferred not to do the thing, because he had delight in Jacob's daughter: and he was more honourable than all the house of his father. [20]And Hamor and Shechem his son came unto the gate of their city, and communed with the men of their city, saying, [21]These men are peaceable with us; therefore let them dwell in the land, and trade therein; for the land, behold, it is large enough for them; let us take their daughters to us for wives, and let us give them our daughters. [22]Only herein will the men consent unto us for to dwell with us, to be one people, if every male among us be circumcised, as they are circumcised. [23]Shall not their cattle and their substance and every beast of theirs be ours? only let us consent unto them, and they will dwell with us. [24]And unto Hamor and unto Shechem his son hearkened all that went out of the gate of his city; and every male was circumcised, all that went out of the gate of his city. [25]And it came to pass on the third day, when they were sore, that two of the sons of Jacob, Simeon and Levi, Dinah's brethren, took each man his sword, and came upon the city boldly, and slew all the males. [26]And they slew Hamor and Shechem his son with the edge of the sword, and took Dinah out of Shechem's house, and went out. [27]The sons of Jacob came upon the slain, and spoiled the city, because they had defiled their sister. [28]They took their sheep, and their oxen, and their asses, and that which was in the city, and that which was in the field, [29]And all their wealth, and all their little ones, and their wives took they captive, and spoiled even all that was in the house. [30]And Jacob said to Simeon and Levi, Ye have troubled me to make me to stink among the inhabitants of the land, among the Canaanites and the Perizzites: and I being few in number, they shall gather themselves together against me, and slay me; and I shall be destroyed, I and my house.
the worst
In England, under Oliver Cromwell in the 17th century, Jews were invited back into the country.
Why were they expelled thousands of times?
Apparently calling for a ceasefire in the current conflict is Antisemitic. This in the context if israeli bombardment obliterating civilian infrastructure that's already displaced 1.4 million people is showing the world that the term is being abused. The political influence of jewish people in the west is being abused.
Israel is run by Zionists
The illtreatment of palestenians is also an anti Semitic act...
Anti semetism shouldn't be exclusively to anti Jewry, it should also included anti chritian anti arab community activities as they are also the descendant's of Abraham, the semite....
"Semite" means anyone whose native language is derived from Hebrew, Arabic, or Aramaic.
Point of emphasis: Circumcision is an " African practice" going back Millenia before Judaism. The Egyptians and the Ancient Nubians practiced circumcisions for the boys and its equivalent for the girls. For the context. Circumcision is one of the initiatique step that " confine" the young man ( and young female) within his/her gender and function into society. In the African worldview, being a Male and a " Man" is 2 different things. To become an adult into the community and thus being allowed to marry, own property, participate in important matters, the young Man must successfully proceed through a variety of rites and challenges until he is deemed fit as a " MAN." Typically, the young men ( usually around the age of 14) were taken out of the community for a period of time where they will be circumcized, exposed to a variety of rites, challenged and pushed beyond their own physical and mental aptitudes ( death was not uncommon) and then brought back into the community as " Men". Circumcision was just one of the step among many others. Why circumcision? The Abrahamic religions are rather unsure as its purpose, and they conflate it to a pact with the divine.That is actually rather false. In the Egyptian ( African worldview), God is neither Male nor female. He is the Totality ( hermaphrodite). Science has shown that Males and Females possess the same genetic makeup but our hormonal construct is what differ us from one another. Thus "Males" also carry estrogen while " Females" possess some " Testosterone". The purpose of circumcision is to create a definite " split" between the Male and the female and thus " confine" the young adult into his " gender" and the roles that it entails. Marriage however is the institution that re-unite both gender in the image of God and allows of the creation of Life. Basically, as Men and Women, we are merely called to unite, continue, and repeat the cyclical divine creative life giving process. That is the way the Ancient Egyptians, Nubians, and all the Africans people, even the Colchians explained circumcision. Obviously, Ancient Egypt had a lot of influence in the Ancient world and the ancestors of the Judaic people embraced some Egyptians and Nubians traditions and rites. I don't want to enter into the realm of Religion and its origins. That will take me to a different discussion.
Jealousy of their drive and success
That’s what I’ve always thought was at the heart of anti jewish sentiment and hatred. Which doesn’t equate to the way they were depicted by the Nazi’s and others as inferior or less than.
@@Ghostshadows306 I think it was the other way round - their drive and success came from being persecuted. It was do or die.
In Croatian and Serbian languages there is a word - svastika - which means sister-in-law.
« Antisemitism: the longest hatred » What of Islamophobia? By proportion, the world’s religions: 30% Christian 25% Muslim 15% Hinduism 15% Unaffiliated Followed by Buddhists and Taoists The Jewish faith is practiced by less than 1%, 75% of whom are in Israel. Is the world permitted to speak of the abject reciprocal hatred between Palestinian Semites and Jewish Semites in the Holy Land which is of central symbolic importance to three monotheistic religious cultures? With respect, I find this programme I ntolerably strident and stereotyping. It comes across as an exercise aimed at inducing guilt rather than rational discourse, as if to suppress or ban legitimate criticism and debate about the turbulent and deeply troubling 75 history of Palestine and Israel. We’re in 2023. What has happened in the Holy Land is consistently tragic and horrifying - it needs to be analyzed equitably and freely like any other geopolitical deadlock or permanently unresolved crisis which affects Europe and the Middle East constantly and disproportionately. It is self-evident that freedom of speech should be respected by all across the spectrum. In my view, such lectures are unwelcome and if anything backfire. Paris, Europe.
Goldberg meke sens what you saying
Is very good true on your lexical how you explain only good scholars are revealed
The first act of antisemitism goes all the way back to the Old Testament. It started with the story of Abraham and Sarah lying to Pharaoh about Sarah’s status as an ‘unmarried woman’ in order to be 'treated well' and gain access to the highest levels of power in Egypt. Pharaoh and his harem come down with a "mysterious illness" (venereal disease) and Pharaoh confront Abraham about his trickery and kicks Abraham and his followers out of Egypt. So there you have, Pharaoh kicking Abraham out of Egypt was the first act of antisemitism.
