- Earlier today, Rabbi Sacks spoke in a House of Lords debate on worldwide antisemitism. Here is a video of his remarks in which he argued that a society, or a political party, that tolerates antisemitism or any form of hate, has forfeited all moral credibility.
You can tell how well the speech was attended how low fighting anti-Semitism is among British priorities.
Small slots are allotted for raising concerns.
That's a normal turnout for a regular day at the House of Lords.
To be making a speech as such, be sure, the issues are tabled.
No ghettos happening here, no way. People can choose to stay close, why not, but no ghettos.
No hatred surfacing with any political support, no way. If it does, it has its day but you won't see it tomorrow! Everything is very carefully watched and considered. This is a multi cultural, multi faith country, that's that.
Things are only changing for the better.
Either believe in good and truth or don't, its a personal choice.

Thank you. Please keep raising this. We must never forget.
People forget, that's why the west is going the way it's going.
Hey Ryan, my comment was about human nature and I am vaguely aware of some Jewish prophecy about Edom being destroyed and it's a good thing for it means the comming of the massiah. My knowledge comes from the banned resurrection Europa video though.

Tragic that history is repeating itself.

"Scapegoat is a Jewish idea"
was/is indeed - a very wise and harmless idea..
same as the concept of "Karma" is a wise buddhist perspective on the human condition and how it fits into the world - but one not well understood by western culture..
but now the word "scapegoat" has taken on an opposite meaning in so far as instead of being a device to defuse tension between people - it is method that those in power rely on to create tension between people in order to distract them from the short-comings of their leaders..
thus - Sacks might on occasion justifiably be described as a bit of a shit for the way he uses disingenuous words and/or conflates real antisemitism with forthright criticism of Israel - but that is a measure of the kind of scum that ends up in the house of lords rather than any real measure of him being jewish..
@Romeo Tango And what behaviour is that oh wise one. Hem?
Anti-semitism itself was created not to exterminate innocent jews, but to oppose Jewish Zionists, the Bankers and industrialists,the real enemies of our societies.
Well put. The religion of peace needs to be called out on their Jew hatred. It is unacceptable. The governments need to be held accountable!!!
Muslim invasion of Europe and european leaders kow towing to them. That is the problem not just for Jews but for Europe. Europe is no longer. It has lost its identity thanks to leftist governments. Too late to save europe. She is no longer.
Thank you!...You're voice on curbing hate and hostility empowers us all. HUMANITY.
if he was to more actively express what his holy book teaches and burn all of the flags that he can find - most especially the union jack, the flag of israel and the stars and stripes - that might show a greater sincerity and encourage people to drop their tribalism, fear and hate in order to embrace a more universal human understanding..
@@frankzappaspussy7362 What the hell are you spewing about. WTF do you know what his holy books says.
@@ataraw.6142
.. it is not that difficult to know what his holy book says - it is very widely published and also reviewed (altho open to very different interpretations).. and as i say - any wise jew will tell you - what was fundamentally wrong with germany in the thirties was idolatry..
Does anyone ask... why? Why does anti-semitism keep returning?
Muslims making it fashionable and leaders ignoring the anti semitism of Muslims to blame it on whites in turn makes whites more anti Semitic..
Its simple mass psychology. Its intellectually dishonest to be suprised about anti semitism rising.
Because it says to ‘kill Jews’ in the Quran
Thank you
Shame. Looks like most of the Lords couldn't be bothered. What an empty house as well.
As stirring as your speech was(as always), I was disappointed by the poor attendance. His lordship the Bishop appeared to be sleeping.
Elderly gentlemen of the Lords are allowed to graciously nod off in safety in the house, it is traditional to respect the elderly.
@@bloopblooper490 Being a big fan of Rabbi Lord Jonathan Sacks, I can't imagine anyone else not being enraptured by his speech.
@@irajayrosen4792 I wasn't. I think he's a pr*ck.
@@stretchmorgan Yeah we know you would rather eat shit. So eat shit. Your puny mind is too small to appreciate this man's beautiful soul and humanity simply because he is a Jew. YOU are the kind of person he is talking about. A small minded wretch.
@@stretchmorgan why?
Someone should send this to the demricatis in the USA.
Is the Labour party listening?
Why should anybody listen to this tw*t?
he should have had a full house listening to this incredible important speech
I loved your words rabbi Sacks! We need to spread your message.
Those who forget the many atrocities of history are destined to repeat it. May all societies of the world not return to being blind guides leading the blind-but open their eyes to see the love and light of HaShem being spread across our planet by His people! For we are all one in Him alone. Baruch HaShem Adonai! Todah Raba!
Always a great speaker ..
yes.. but sometimes unfortunately he is clever at talking bullshit dressed up as wisdom ..

Keep it up rabbi. You are one amongst millions who are trying to protect people from ignorance like this hate comments below. (Not all of them, most of this connents are positives)
@Claire Khaw I never met a Jew from the UK but I am sure that most of them are appointed on accomplishing their obligations as Jews. If some are not taking it seriously, then it is not acting as a real, decent Jew but we must not generalize it.
@Claire Khaw Then I might have misunderstoood, I'm sorry. Please make your point.
The state of Israel break any commandments.. the 6 and 8
thou shall not kill..
thou shall not STEAL..
@@hamzahhussain3206 Sometimes I don't agree the way the israeli government acts but we are only protecting our rights to be there. Of course others have this rights to live there but if only they accepted we have history and rights in there.
@Claire Khaw You still seem to generalise us as if all of us, as a group, are to blame for all this hate. You need to look by the individuals,as I told before. There are bad rabbis such as bad priests, we remain in our promised land because its our right. I do my work as a good jew, I try to follow all the laws at my best. You can't blame me if someone is doing wrong. I never made a muslim feel threatened and so are other millions of jews that are being unfairily hated.
May he rest in peace. I'm sorry he didn't live to see a better world. He was a great man and thinker.
@@hellosunnymorning I'd like to know more about this Jason Harding. If what you say is true, he has no business teaching anywhere.
Being Jewish myself I am baffled why antisemitism is so widespread.
Having lived in post war Poland in a Jewish family I considered myself Polish and not told that we were Jews. Later on when we moved to the West I felt I did not fit into the Jewish community in Australia. Looking at them through Polish eyes I found their way of interacting with others often inappropriate and insensitive. On the other hand, they were highly sensitive to 'what they called' antisemitism.
Every time someone had a issue with them personally they classed this as 'anti semitic'
No one ever had an issue with me and when I told them I am Jewish they were in disbelief.
What you assume is negligible, may in fact be egregious, when it is you or someone you care about experiencing it.
As he rightly notes, when Jews are unsafe, no one is. History shows that and more and that is why, whether it is right or left engaging in this kind of vicious hatred, their cruelties and hostility must be fought, opposed, and freedom and human dignity defended as Sacks does so nobly here.
BDE
Why should Jews alone not be able to be criticized? Why is anybody who disagrees with this tribe equated with Nazis?
You can critize all you want, do you hold every other Group to the same standard though?
@@joshageman7931 this is about my stance: ua-cam.com/video/Koll2tjLX_s/v-deo.html
Sadly the climate in Poland did not change .My parents - Polish Jews leaving the country made sure to goo as far as as possible from Europe . Today I am happy for their choice - living in Montreal .💌
