Because its true. Jews are NOT about to live where ever they wish.
Do you have a list of countries to which you are NOT PERMITTED TO TRAVEL? Because of your religious faith, your ethnicity or because you once visited Israel?
I DO. So do others posting here.
Check your privilege.
What privilege do I need to check?
My feeling is Jews should be allowed to live anywhere they wish. How is that a lie?

You said in your post #18:
As far as where Jews can live? They can live anywhere they want, just like any other ethnic group.
That statement is not true. It is a lie. Therefore, I agree with
Dogmaphobe.
The privilege you need to check is the one which assumes that everyone experiences the world the way you do. And that your "feelings" of fairness somehow magically keep people like me and
Dogmaphobe from experiencing discrimination based on our ethnicity or religious faith or places where we work.
IT IS MY OPINION. MY OPINION is that Jews SHOULD be able to live where they want! It is NOT a statement that they CAN. BUT THAT THEY SHOULD. It relates to my statements on refugees.
I do not and have never "magically" thought you, or blacks or Muslims or women do not experience discrimination. So check your own privilege. And don't assume Dogmaphobe is Jewish. He isn't. He's a white male that has issues with blacks and Muslims, he has his own "privilege" problems to deal with.
I am not the subject of this thread, but I might mention that ANY parent whose child was at the receiving end of racial abuse would want to protect them and hope the school system would do something about it. when posters say they are happy that my child was a victim of racial attacks, ANY poster would object. you sided with the poster who said he was glad my child was attacked, and so we disagree on the subject of my child and whether he deserves to be physically attacked for his skin color.
since you brought it up and all.
Now, as to the subject of this thread, which certainly isn't me, you support the dispersal of Arabs into Europe even as many of their countries do not even allow Jews to enter. for all your posturing about prejudice, you certainly do ignore the extremely high level of prejudice arising from your people.
Well, let's keep this simple. If your child was the subject of racial abuse, I sympathize. No child, especially a child with disabilities, should ever be the subject of abuse. And no, I did not side with what you claim.
What I said (and what your lying ass will never admit) - was if you USE your child to score racist points, you open yourself and your child to criticism. I abhor people who use their children for that purpose. Perhaps you can provide a link (you don't usually link to your claims do you).
However, I was basing my comments more on your overall posting history in racial issues.
Not sure what you mean by "high level of prejudice" from my people since my people themselves have had to deal with historic persecution - first as Mormans in a Christian dominated country, then as - Gentiles kicked out of the Morman church over a land dispute.
Aside from that - I support immigration. I don't sit down and set up some sort of bizarre moral calculus. When Syrians are fleeing the horrors of ISIS, I don't stop and think: well, there are ARAB countries who won't let Jews in, therefore we shouldn't let Muslims in, even if they are fleeing persecution.
In my view, and it is a very very strong view since it's been a part of my sig for many years - the St. Louis should serve as a reminder to us Americans, about how we SHOULD NOT act when it comes to immigrants.
It's pretty simple. And it should not matter what their race, religion or ethnicity is.
